Returning to Hue, Gao Jingshi stayed for another five days. When Gao Jue completed the general reorganization of the Nguyen Hoang tribe in Hue, he led the army back north. The defenders who stayed in Hue were replaced by the direct lineage of Huang Zhiting - Si Mingzhou's three thousand wolf soldiers.
After the Huang Gongsheng Rebellion in Siming Prefecture, Huang Zhiting is now responsible for taking charge of the state affairs. Therefore, the wolf soldiers in Siming Prefecture are more directly related to Huang Zhiting than the wolf soldiers in Siming Mansion. After all, Siming The prefect of the prefecture is still her father Huang Chengzu.
Gao pragmatically kept the bodyguards around him, not because he was afraid of death this time, but as a deterrent, because he wanted to make another move on the surrendered soldiers under his command and conduct a second reorganization.
In fact, the Jia Ding Guards did not fight any tough battles in this southern expedition. If it must be counted, only in the Battle of Lang Son, one of their artillery units performed very well and became the key to Huang Zhiting's opening up the situation.
It was because of this battle that the 500-man artillery unit only fired a few guns in total, but it played a key role in making the Guinan chieftains, including the wolf soldiers, look at the highly pragmatic servant guards in a different light.
Over time, the reputation of the escort regiment as "invincible with artillery fire" spread throughout the wolf soldiers of the Cen and Huang factions, and from the wolf soldiers to the surrender troops.
In the end, the Annan soldiers began to come up with a ranking: the wolf soldiers can defeat us, and the guard group makes the wolf soldiers so awed, naturally they are more powerful than the wolf soldiers, so in other words By the way, if the guards attack us, wouldn't it be just like playing for fun?
Damn it, so awesome...
So the Annan soldiers were like a mouse seeing a cat when they saw the pragmatic guard group wearing brown shorts and riding tall horses. They were even more envious and fearful of their Longqing II-type muskets and Qi's Yanling knives. exist. As for the legendary invincible artillery... you don't usually see this.
But not being able to see it only adds to the sense of mystery and awe. In this way, the servant guard group has now inexplicably become a sea-fixing needle.
In fact, even Gao Pragmatic himself can't guarantee that if the current Jia Ding Guards fight against the wolf soldiers, who will have the advantage. After all, the wolf soldiers have proven themselves to be good at fighting, and the vast majority of the Jia Ding Guards this time I have been serving as my own bodyguard for the Chinese army all the time, and I haven't had any good opportunities to prove my combat effectiveness.
Of course, just judging from the performance of that artillery unit, it seems to be pretty good. Its execution and combat effectiveness are both satisfactory. At least it doesn't seem like it was a waste of money.
The second reorganization of the surrendered troops was carried out in Thang Long after Gao Pangshi hesitated for a while.
The reason for "slight hesitation" is that Thanh Hoa was originally an option.
However, after thinking about it, the Li family and the Zheng family have perished after all. The soldiers and civilians of Thanh Hoa City have also seen the high and pragmatic military power, and they should have a clear understanding of the strength gap between the two sides.
This is not the case in Thang Long City. The Mo family is still there and will still be the nominal ruler of Annan. Therefore, Gao Pangshi feels that it is necessary to deepen their impression on them to prevent these people from doing anything foolishly after he leaves. An irrational act of seeking death.
It doesn't matter if they want to die, but if they ruin their own important things, or delay their own important things, they will die forever.
During this reorganization, Gao Pragmatic divided Mo's surrendered army into two parts, one was under Mo Yulin and Ruan Juan's command, and the other was under his own control.
Mo Yulin's tribe and Ruan Juan's tribe were each killed by Gao Pragmatic - Mo Yulin's tribe was reduced from 30,000 to 20,000, and Ruan Juan's tribe was reduced from 15,000 to 10,000. The two armies maintained a total strength of 30,000. The reason is that the South has been settled, Annan is about to enter a period of construction and development, and there is no need to maintain such a large army.
Besides, your safety is now guaranteed by Daming - or to put it more bluntly, it is guaranteed by my high pragmatism.
Mo Yulin and Ruan Juan were not stupid. They knew that they would definitely be stabbed, but they just didn't know how heavy the sword was. Now Gao Pragmatic slashed each of their troops. Although it hurt a little, thinking about it carefully It's not fatal.
And in their opinion, after this chop, Gao Antai should feel relieved. Gao Jiantai is relieved, which means that the strength they have at hand has definitely become their own strength, and now that the Mo family's royal family - well, if it can still be called the royal family - no longer has direct soldiers and horses in their hands, then the two of them Isn't it certain that a person's status will rise?
Therefore, one cut off 10,000 and the other cut off 5,000, and both of them accepted it.
The other part of Mo's surrendered troops originally numbered around 30,000, including Mo Yulin's original troops in Taiyuan and the selected Shenglong city defense troops. This time Gao Pragmatic also cut himself off, reducing it to 25,000.
However, the Zheng family surrendered more troops, including 30,000 troops recruited in Thanh Hoa, more than 30,000 troops recruited in Yingdu, and nearly 20,000 troops recruited in Hue, a total of about 80,000 troops surrendered.
This force is too large and belongs to the scale of the Civil War between the North and the South. In addition, some of the Guangxi chieftains are slowly "moving" to Annan. It seems unnecessary to maintain such a huge force now.
But the problem is that this group of people cannot be dismissed too much at once, lest they cause chaos after demobilization. Fortunately, Gao Pragmatic had previously thought of using them to mine, so he followed the approach of the Red Dynasty's "Construction Corps" and also A construction corps was formed—the first batch totaled 25,000 people.
The meaning of this construction corps is to maintain their status as soldiers, but actually transfer to local construction - well, it is actually mining, road construction and other things, and maybe they will be sent to repair Jingang City.
However, Gao Pragmatic agreed. Whether it was mining, road construction or city construction, Jinghua would give an extra salary. The price certainly cannot be compared with that in the Ming Dynasty, but in Annan, this money can be subsidized to some extent. Household expenses, not to mention that Jinghua always provides meals when doing engineering projects, so in general, their treatment may be better than when they were soldiers - of course, they will also be a little more tired.
In this way, the Mo family surrendered 25,000 troops and the Zheng family surrendered 55,000 troops. Together, they still had 80,000 troops, which was enough to form an absolute advantage over the 30,000 troops of Mo Yulin and Ruan Juan. A group of "moving town" wolf soldiers are not involved, and Gao Pragmatic does not need to worry about anything happening to Mo Yulin and Ruan Juan.
What's more, according to his plan with Huang Zhiting and Cen Ling, the first batch of troops for the Cen and Huang families to "move to the town" was not very small - 20,000 wolf soldiers each.
If these 40,000 wolf soldiers were included, it would be 120,000 versus 30,000, a four-to-one battle. If he still couldn't win, he was so pragmatic that he could just give up on Annan. Why bother?
As soon as the reorganization plan was announced, and with the news that each of the Cen and Huang families sent 20,000 wolf soldiers to be "permanently stationed in Annan", everyone in the Mo family's court looked pale.
I thought that according to Ming Dynasty's shit habits, after the Battle of Pingnan, the surrendered troops should be returned to the Mo family at least in name. Who knew that Gao Jingshi didn't follow the routine at all - he Don’t hand over military power!
This...how can you play with this? You pragmatically deployed 80,000 troops in Annan, and 40,000 wolf-like Guangxi wolf soldiers served as accomplices. Whose Annan is this?
Do you want to be Annan's supreme emperor?
