Chapter 41: The Foreman Devil Six

Of course, the main force that went to Jinchuan for reinforcements could not be these Eight Banner disciples who had just been admitted to Baitang'a, but the Jianrui Battalion and the Forward Battalion, the two elite main forces of the Eight Banners.

The Jianrui battalion dispatched 700 left wing soldiers and 300 raising soldiers, a total of 1,000 people, under the command of Shu Mulu, the commander of the left wing.

Raising soldiers refers to the reserve soldiers of each banner.

In the eighteenth year of Qianlong, the number of soldiers raised by each banner increased to more than 26,200, and they could receive one or two taels of silver a month, Manchuria and Mongolia could receive rice every month, and the Han army had no rice.

The forward battalion was also divided into left and right wings, but the soldiers were only selected from Manchuria and Mongolia. The selection of soldiers is a leader, only two brave and strong people are selected, and there are a total of 885 leaders in Manchuria and Mongolia in the Eight Banners, so the actual number of soldiers in the forward battalion is about 1,770 people.

This time, together with the left wing of the Jianrui Battalion, the right wing of the Forward Battalion, namely the four flags of Zhenghuang, Zhenghong, Red, and Blue, totaled 400 basic forward soldiers and 500 shotgun forward soldiers, which were commanded by Bo Linga, the first-class guard of the imperial front and the deputy commander of Mongolia under the Blue Banner.

The commander-in-chief is the former leader and counselor of Yili, the fifth grandson of Emperor Taizu, and now the deputy capital of Manchuria with the white flag.

According to Durga's arrangement, the forward battalion was led by Bo Ling'a and set off yesterday, and the Eight Banners set off with the soldiers of Tang Ah with Jian Yingrui and Baggage today.

In order to facilitate command, Durga divided Baitanga into three teams: Manchuria, Mongolian, and Han armies.

The Manchurian contingent was led by the second-class guard Yamantar, with 54 people accompanying the expedition to Tang'a and 250 people from Sula.

Su La is a clothed family slave carried by the children of the conscription, and Manchuria means idle people. Most of the time, Su La is to rush in front of the master, and be responsible for the master's food, clothing, housing and transportation, to put it bluntly, he is an auxiliary soldier.

The Mongolian Eight Banners team was led by Amantai, the forward leader of the Jianrui Battalion, and included 75 people who accompanied the expedition to worship Tang'a and 265 people from Sula.

The Eight Banners of the Han Army was led by Lan Ling's guard Alan Bao, with a total of 107 people who accompanied the expedition to Tang A and 190 people from Su La.

The three banners directly under the Ministry of Internal Affairs led the team, but it was Ling Guifei's nephew, Du Yu Shilang, in Guilin. The Ministry of Internal Affairs also recruited the largest number of Tang A's children, with 150 people, almost three-quarters of whom took the exam.

Because the children of the Internal Affairs Office are originally coated, they can't carry Sula.

It is said that Guilin's appointment as the leader of the team this time is the meaning of the palace, and he may be promoted after he returns, after all, this Langzhong's aunt is the imperial concubine.

Yesterday, Guilin's cousin, the 14-year-old fifteenth elder brother Yongyan, specially hosted a banquet for his cousin to see him off.

...........

Regarding the specific arrangements of the upper level, how can Jia Liu know, when he got off the car, he followed everyone to stand in line.

Because it is a unified departure, the salute or something must also be transported in a unified manner, and the Su La, including Yang Zhi, will move the salute down according to the requirements, and then move it to the cart that has been prepared a long time ago.

After the incident, Yang Zhi was about to come over to find the young master, but he was ordered to stand on the left side of the road with Su La and wait, not to walk around or talk.

This made Yang Zhi, who went out for the first time to go out to fight, a little flustered, and waved his hand to the young master who was talking to people several times, but the young master patronized and talked to people, how could he pay attention to him.

Jia Liu: They were discussing the matter of the Eight Banners Force.

Just as the people in the previous life gathered together and especially liked to discuss which army was stronger, a group of newcomers who accepted their fate Bai Tang'a were idle and bored, and they also argued about who was more powerful in the army of the Qing Dynasty.

Some say that the forward battalion is strong, some say that the guard battalion can fight, and some say that the cavalry battalion and the firearms battalion are invincible all over the world.

Jia Liu listened intently on the side, although he didn't know the details of the enemy, it was good to listen to the details of the Qing army.

Chang Bingzhong insisted that the Jianrui Battalion in front of him was the most powerful, and also said that the Jianrui Battalion was specially set up to fight Jinchuan.

"Do you know, there are a lot of bunkers built on the West Mountain, specially for the soldiers of the Jianrui Battalion to practice and seize the fort there... When I was a child, my father and I went to see it, and I was good, that ruthless one, and I gave an order from above, no matter who you are, you have to climb up with a ladder, and if you move a little slowly, you have to be whipped, and finally you have to practice the one called to go up the ladder and go to bed, fast and ruthless..."

The predecessor of the Jianrui battalion was the cloud ladder army formed in the thirteenth year of Qianlong, because the local Tusi of Jinchuan built a large number of stone bunkers to resist the Qing army by virtue of its geographical advantages, resulting in the Qing army could not be attacked for a long time, and suffered heavy casualties.

Hearing Chang Bingzhong say this, Wang Fu was a little excited: "So, there won't be any danger for us to go over with the Jianrui Battalion?" ”

Liu Heyi was not so optimistic, and pouted: "You think beautifully, what if you are asked to climb the ladder with the people in the Jianrui camp?" ”

"Oh, then I don't have to fall to my death!"

Wang Fu patted his head, and his heart, which had already eased a little, suddenly became nervous again.

"Don't worry, who are we? Children of the Banner People! ... Even if the commander of the front line is willing to let us go to the front line, the imperial court may not be willing to do it, so most of us will be put in the back after we pass, helping to supervise and supervise, transporting grain or something, there will be no danger. ”

Chang Bingzhong's words were analyzed by his father for him, which is very reasonable.

"Why don't you let us go to the front line and force us to go to Jinchuan for what?"

“... Maybe you want to train us. ”

"Then what if we are told to go to the bunker of Fanzi too?"

“......”

The topic instantly changed from which of the Qing army was strong to how to seize the bunker, and Wang Fu and Chang Bingzhong also took the trouble to draw the bunker graphics on the ground with sticks, saying what to do.

Jia Liu listened to it and laughed on the side, the bunker of that soldier is really easy to take, as for the establishment of a Jianrui battalion, is it possible to fight for so many years and invest so many manpower and material resources.

In fact, I was afraid that if I got to the front line and had bad luck and encountered some emergency, I would catch the ducks on the line of fire and seize the fort.

That's really a death before you can get out of school.

I hope that as Chang Bingzhong said, it is to fight in the past, and to be familiar with it...

While he was thinking wildly, two officers from the Jianrui battalion came over and asked who was leading the team.

The one who led the team over was Wang An, a riding school, and this guy didn't know where he went, so no one answered.

The people from the Jianrui camp looked around and didn't find the leader, so they simply asked the gang of spare children: "How many of you are there?" ”

Still no one answered, and these spare children didn't know what the people in the Jianrui Camp were going to do, so they didn't dare to answer.

Jia Liu thought for a while, bowed to the two officers and said, "The Han army is in the blue banner and should have 17 people, but there are 17 people, please show me!" ”

The forward school in front of the Jianrui Battalion Zhengliupin listened to Jia Liu's report, couldn't help but glance at him, and asked Jia Liu's name.

Jia Liu said his name.

"Jia Dongge? Okay, it's you, you hold this brand, and you will be this team's Buteha in the future. ”

The forward school casually threw a wooden card to Jia Liu, and then asked Lan Ling on the side to write down Jia Liu's name, and then went to the Han army next door to the white flag team.

What Buteha?

Jia Liu looked at the wooden sign in his hand curiously, and saw that there were two lines of words written on it, one line was "Han Army is Blue Flag", and the other line was "Bute Habai Tanga".

Chang Bingzhong took a look at it, and "oops" was happy: "Sixty percent of the devils are our foreman!" ”
