The Polish-Lithuanian nobles who were willing to surrender to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom were all people who 'knew the times', and they could even sell their honor and country for the continuation of their families and the preservation of their wealth.

Hong Tiancheng is not an unreasonable person, these local nobles handed over their personal bodyguards, and they also became veritable white traitors, so the security aspect was naturally greatly reduced, so these grassroots squad leaders of the Han Association Army who were gathered and reorganized were selected to make contributions to the local nobles.

In this way, they can appropriately let these private soldiers of the Han Association army protect their personal property.

This can be regarded as the reward for their defection to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the initiative to maintain the local law and order environment to assist the Swedish urban militia of the Taiping Army in implementing the Taiping Army Sacred Treasury System.

Of course, the name of the Han Association Army, which was composed of these local aristocratic private soldiers, could not be called such a creative name as the 'Han Association Army', and Hong Tiancheng named these white security forces as the 'police' force, which meant the meaning of the vigilant inspector.

As their name suggests, the police are responsible for supervising the execution of local affairs on weekdays and guarding and defending the enemy in wartime, which is also an integral part of Hong Tiancheng's strategy of guarding the cordon.

The nature of the Swedish town militia is actually the work of the police, except that because of their reliability, their status is much higher than that of the average white policeman, and interestingly, there is no difference in appearance between the two sides......

After the authority of the all-out war system was promoted to the high-level, all the mercenaries who got by lottery had the ability to communicate in two languages, one was their native language and the other was Chinese, which was also an additional benefit of the all-out war system, in order to facilitate Hong Tiancheng's command of the operation, after all, the soldiers of his headquarters Taiping Army only knew Chinese, if the mercenaries did not understand Chinese, it would be difficult to convey orders on the battlefield.

Therefore, all of these Swedish town militiamen can speak Chinese, but they prefer to communicate in their native Swedish language on weekdays, and only when there is a specific identification, will they use special Chinese to confirm.

In other words, if the enemy wants to successfully infiltrate the militia in Swedish towns and wreak havoc, he must first be proficient in Chinese.

You know, this is the hinterland of Eastern Europe, tens of thousands of kilometers away from East Asia, the Age of Discovery has just begun, Europeans have no in-depth communication with East Asian countries at all, in the developed Western Europe to find a person who can speak Chinese, let alone in the relatively closed Eastern Europe?

Mongolians don't speak Chinese!

Coupled with the fact that the Swedish town militia was reluctant to communicate in Chinese, and the local indigenous civilians did not know the Chinese language proficiency of the Swedish town militia, the Poles and Lithuanians had always believed that only the Tatars, the headquarters of the Taiping Army, could speak Chinese.

In this way, the possibility of spies with backward infiltration technology in this era was basically eliminated from penetrating into the Taiping Army to steal intelligence.

This is undoubtedly a hidden huge advantage for Hong Tiancheng.

After Hong Tiancheng exploded the army and expanded the army, it took two months to fully implement the holy treasury system in the Polesiye area to collect grain and grass materials for the army, and under the human tragedy of mourning and sorrow, the Taiping army executed hundreds of local nobles and knight families who planned to respond to the call for Tianxingdao, suppressed and killed thousands of 'irrational' white people on the spot, and arrested more than 3,000 people involved in the case afterwards.

The Polesiye tragedy caused an uproar in Lithuania, on the one hand, the Lithuanian nobles were relieved by Hong Tiancheng's behavior of accepting the nobles to give them a certain amount of local security rights and continuing to maintain the privileged class of the aristocracy, and on the other hand, they were afraid of Hong Tiancheng's brutal rule.

Only in the same position as Hong Tiancheng did few nobles feel sad about the tragic death and reduction of a large number of commoners to slavery, as if the thousands of white commoners who suffered were not their compatriots but were two-legged animals serving the nobles......

Through the compilation of various sources, Hong Tiancheng could not help but have a deeper understanding of the contempt of the white aristocracy for the common serf class in the 17th century.

Chinese historians often criticize the ancient Chinese gentry class for persecuting the common people, but they don't know that in the world background at that time, the practices of the West and Central Asia were as good as they were!

The average life expectancy of the civilian population in the Western Middle Ages in Europe was only about 20 years, not because the life expectancy was too short at that time, but because the vast majority of civilians simply did not live that long and died due to various accidents.

The average life expectancy in the 20s is really not much different from that of some long-lived animals in modern society.

It's not that people in ancient times were too ruthless, but each era and each different degree of social development, bringing different humanistic and moral standards, killing people in the 21st century is a great crime, but killing people in the 17th century is really divided into objects, killing serfs and even free people, you only need to lose money or even just say 'sorry', but killing nobles needs to pay for your life!

Because of this, the actions of the Taiping Army in the 21st century seem to people to be the most heinous reactionaries, but in the 17th century, even if they were disliked, they did not appear to be mavericks, after all, the Taiping Army itself is a foreign race, which foreign invasion is not a river of blood?

How many people slaughtered by the Mongols do not even remember themselves, and are they not honored by later generations as the great Genghis Khan?

Look at the identity of the people slaughtered by the Mongols, eighty percent of them were innocent civilians, women, the elderly, children, and the weak did not have a natural protective aura in that era, on the contrary, weakness was the original sin in that era, it was a cruel era, but it was also the most real human history!

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom brought great suffering to the people of Polesiya, but it enriched Hong Tiancheng's pockets, and three months after the lottery, Hong Tiancheng not only completely consolidated Polesiya's rule (which was terrifying), but also raised enough supplies for an army of tens of thousands to go on an expedition for several months.

Just when the Poles and Lithuanians were shocked by the cruel behavior of the Taiping Army, another powerful news exploded in the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania, and Hong Tiancheng, the king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, advanced to the Black Rus region of Lithuania with more than a dozen captured city artillery guns of tens of thousands of troops!

Meanwhile, Sarri. Assman, with a thousand Cossack chieftains, had already trodden through the lands of the Kiev region, and it was precisely in the middle and lower reaches of the Dnieper that the Cossack horde settlements had entered.
