447 Disposition of the Ottoman surrenders

The report that a battalion of several hundred Taiping troops defeated tens of thousands of Ottoman troops quickly attracted the attention of the Taiping high-level army, even the high-minded Taiping high-ranking army did not expect that the two sides could win with such a large difference in strength!

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Taiping Army's achievements in such brilliant achievements are not only because the Taiping Army's weapons and equipment are powerful, but also because the two Makqin heavy machine guns do not play a big role in the real crowd offensive.

Of course, the fact that the Taiping army was able to achieve such a brilliant victory can only show one thing - the Ottoman army is really too scum!

The Taiping Army had only collected information on the new Ottoman army with a complete structure, thinking that even if the old Ottoman army and other servant armies were inferior in combat strength to the new Ottoman army, the gap would not be too large, but after this battle, the Taiping army leaders directly turned the old Ottoman army and the servant army into a rank with similar combat strength as the bandit guerrillas......

Since the Ottoman old army and the servant army, which accounted for the majority in numbers, were so scumbag, the top brass of the Taiping army naturally had to do a great job with their hands and feet.

In order to more quickly sweep away the Ottoman army entrenched in the Balkans, the Taiping army spread its troops more widely, with a regimental unit equipped with grenadiers as the central main force, and battalion-level troops equipped with one to two Makqin heavy machine guns scattered on all sides.

The Taiping army gathered the largest number of troops, and was responsible for keeping an eye on the more than 10,000 Ottoman new troops, and the training and equipment materials of the Ottoman new army The top brass of the Taiping army have seen it, and the data on the surface is comparable to that of the ordinary regular army of the British, but the weapons are slightly weaker.

As the examples of tens of thousands of Ottoman troops encircling and suppressing hundreds of Taiping troops were defeated, a large number of deserters immediately appeared in the servant army and slave soldiers and even the old army in the Ottoman army, and even those Ottoman army leaders felt that they could not win the Taiping army!

Especially after the Taiping army dispersed its forces as bait, attracting a group of Ottoman troops to gather over, and fought a few more defeats with fewer victories, the morale of the old Ottoman army was even more disheartened.

The fighting between the two sides in the Balkans gradually turned into a law and order war, because the Ottoman army did not dare to take the initiative to attack even though it had a numerical advantage of dozens of times......

As for the new Ottoman army, it was stared at by the strength of several regiments of the Taiping Army, and 20 75mm rapid-fire guns have been deployed in this small main force, just to fight the tens of thousands of Ottoman new troops head-on.

However, the Ottoman New Army has always disengaged from the Taiping Army, but after a long time, the Ottoman New Army can only flee in the direction of Istanbul in order to prevent itself from being intercepted by the Taiping Army, and has actually lost control of the Balkans.

The new Ottoman army did not dare to make a move, the old Ottoman army and the servant army were too scumbag, the war in the Balkans had become very clear, and the Taiping army occupied the Balkans only a matter of time to eliminate the old Ottoman army.

At the end of 1684, tens of thousands of new Ottoman troops withdrew to Istanbul, and from the beginning to the end, they did not have any battles with the Taiping army, but only practiced the ability to march long distances, if it were not for the well-trained Ottoman army, a large number of deserters would have appeared in the long march.

Because the Ottoman soldiers in the new army did not think that they could fight against the Taiping army in the field......

Although this is true, the morale of the new Ottoman army has fallen to a low point, and they can only return to Istanbul to slowly recuperate.

As for the old Ottoman army and servant army left behind in the Balkans, they were strictly ordered by the bigwigs in Istanbul to hold on to the last moment, not allowed to surrender or retreat, and to hold back the Taiping army, waiting for the 'reinforcements' that would never appear.

The old Ottoman army stranded in the Balkans has become an outcast, and the Ottoman Sultan has made great efforts behind it, because after the destruction of the old Ottoman army in the Balkans, he can save a number of old army expenses to train more new troops.

The Ottoman Sultan can't be dismissed on the surface, but it's still okay to play the side.

After all, the Ottoman Empire was a feudal dictatorship, and the rights of the sultan were comparable to those of the emperors of the ancient eastern countries!

As soon as the new Ottoman army withdrew, those Ottoman army leaders naturally knew that they were being treated as outcasts, so in just one month, they were still playing hide and seek with the Taiping army, and surrendered the old Ottoman army in the Balkans to the Taiping army one after another!

The servant army was even more straightforward, consulted with each other, and directly dispersed and returned to their respective homes to serve as obedient people......

The soldiers and leaders of the old Ottoman army were not Balkans, they did a lot of angry things in the Balkans, and they could not be obedient to the people, so they could only surrender to the Taiping army, and the servant army was different, they were all conscripted by Balkans, and they could naturally return to their hometowns to continue their lives.

As a result, the fighting in the Balkans ended with the massive surrender of the old Ottoman army.

The Taiping army did not massacre the soldiers of the old Ottoman army who surrendered, these people are young and strong men, and they are valuable labor, before Hong Tian became the formation of a patrol army to integrate Europe, and almost drained the collective farms of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, these soldiers of the old Ottoman army surrendered to Chengcheng, just enough to continue to work in the collective farms, anyway, there is a lot of food, as long as you are willing to exert your strength, it is not a problem to survive, and in the end, if you perform well, you can also get freedom and even have the opportunity to be loyal to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had already passed the difficult early stages, so the management of the collective farms became more humane, and they did not engage in mass massacres at every turn......

As for those high-status Ottoman military leaders, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom who is willing to join the army can directly arrange to be a small superintendent in the patrol police, and those who are not willing to join the army, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom can be responsible for arranging the work, anyway, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom occupation area has a lot of work to do, and there are jobs!

If they are not willing to accept it, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom can also give a sum of money and leave on their own, anyway, these Ottoman army leaders have no soldiers, that is, ordinary people, and there is no threat to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Well, they don't pose much of a threat when they have soldiers......

The Taiping army treated the Ottoman army so well, naturally it was not Hong Tiancheng's sudden conscience that he wanted to be a or something.

He was merely setting an example for the next attack on the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

Let the Ottoman officers and soldiers see that the surrendered Taiping army will not only not die in battle, but also get a good home! ()
