Chapter 448(1/2)
"Please order the flag from the king!"
"Please Shang Fang's sword!"
Wen'an shook his sleeves and shouted orders.
The flag officials brought out eighteen sets of royal flags and two Shangfang swords.
"Kneel down!" Wen Anzhi shouted to Wang Xiang, Zeng Ying, Tan Wen, Gan Liangchen and other generals who were kidnapped by Wu Huada.
Wang Xiang struggled hard and refused to kneel down, and Zeng Ying was also holding her neck in disbelief.
Wen Anzhi sneered twice and said mockingly, "I was ordered to reorganize the Sichuan Army. You disobeyed the order and resisted the order. You showed some real skills. Sixty or seventy thousand people mutinied. As a result, they were defeated by a single shot. The whole mountain was defeated.
The whole valley is running wild, but the soldiers have worked hard to catch it for three days, and you still have the face?"
"For a mob like you, no matter how many soldiers there are, what's the use? What's the use besides wasting food and wages?"
"Wine bags and rice bags!"
Wang Xiang's face turned red with anger, he was angry and ashamed, "You are just a king or a bandit. You can kill or scrape at will, but you can't use your words!"
Zhang Dai sat there and slapped the table angrily, "Don't be so arrogant!" He went to Zeng Ying's camp to reorganize, but eventually a mutiny broke out and he was arrested. Fortunately, Zeng Ying only disarmed the Biao camp and locked them up.
, but this is also a great shame and humiliation for Zhang Dai.
Wang Yingxiong and Fan Yiheng both sat there with ugly expressions, and even their hands were trembling slightly.
Who could have expected that Zeng Ying and Wang Xiang, together with Gan Liangchen, Tu Long, Ma Yingshi, Hou Tianxi, San Tan, etc., a dozen general officers, would lose so miserably.
Now that I have no capital at all, I can only kill or scrape as I please.
Even the two governors were inevitably involved and found it difficult to escape.
"Push out the rebel generals Wang Xiang, Zeng Ying and others and behead them in public!"
"Wen Xiang, calm down!"
"Please keep someone under the sword!"
"They were confused for a while, but they also made meritorious service to the court and guarded the river. When it comes to employing people, please give them the opportunity to make good on their merits."
······
Many people came forward to plead for mercy.
The presidents of the five provinces, Qin Liangyu, Duke of Shu, Zhang Shipeng, the admiral of the Yuyingchuan Guixing Camp, Yuan Zongdi, the admiral of the Pianyuan Camp, and Yang Zhan, the admiral of the Jingluebiao Camp, all stood up to plead for mercy.
Wen Anzhi wants to enforce military law.
The generals begged for mercy.
a long time.
"The Duke of Shu and others are willing to vouch for them, so this book will give them a chance!"
"All officers who participated in the mutiny were dismissed from their posts and arrested. Officers above battalion officer were escorted to Nanjing to be dealt with by Emperor Hou Sheng! Officers below sentry officer were dismissed from their posts and demoted three levels. They were sent to the Jingbiao Training Camp to reflect, learn and reform."
Wen Anzhi followed his advice and invited Shang Fang's sword, but no one was killed.
This was beyond the expectations of Wang Xiang and others.
However, the final punishment was not light. The 60,000 to 70,000 people who participated in the mutiny, no matter how they defended themselves by saying that they just went up the mountain to seek an explanation from Jing Lue, were still defined as mutiny by Wen Anzhi.
All officers above the battalion level were deprived of their posts and taken to Nanjing to await their resignation. Officers below the battalion level were deprived of their posts and demoted to three ranks. They were all transferred to the Jingluebiao Battalion to form a training camp where they could reflect and reform.
As for the tens of thousands of soldiers, they were originally to be reorganized into Chongqing Town Camp, Sichuan Supervisor, Yunnan Supervisor, etc. In total, about 20,000 people were retained.
But this time, Wen Anzhi decided that all the combat troops originally planned to be retained were changed to auxiliary troops of various ministries, and all the auxiliary troops originally planned to be retained were abolished.
The Sichuan Supervision Bureau and the Yunnan Supervision Bureau were all newly established by people allocated from other ministries.
Directly dismiss the Shunqing army and the town camp.
Shunqing Prefecture was placed under the imperial camp Xingying. The left Xie of Xingying was stationed in Chongqing and the right Xie was stationed in Shunqing.
Wang Yingxiong was forced to resign. In the past three days, Wang Yingxiong and Fan Yiheng were also found to be related to the mutiny. There were both witnesses and physical evidence, so they could not escape the blame.
The two of them resigned and would go to Nanjing to meet the Holy Spirit together. This was because Wen Anzhi wanted to show them some kindness, otherwise he would be taken directly to Beijing.
This way.
The Governor-General of Sichuan and the Governor-General of Yunnan are both vacant.
Wen Anzhi directly appointed Fan Wenguang as governor and governor of Guizhou.
Let Zhang Dai be the governor and governor of Sichuan, and Li Qiande be the governor and governor of Yunnan.
It was reported to the imperial court that the supervisor Zhan Tianyan was the patrol commander of Sichuan, and Yang Qiaoran was still the patrol commander of Yunnan.
The noble governor Fan Wenguang and the Yunnan governor Li Qiande each selected three thousand soldiers to serve as governors and ordered them to lead the standard battalion back to their own provinces and no longer stay in Sichuan.
The two patrol ministers each returned with the governor.
After Zhang Dai became the governor and governor of Sichuan, he also had 3,000 pacesetters. Qin Yiming, the admiral of Sichuan, and Yuan Zongdi, the admiral of Pianyuan, each led their own troops of 3,000 to help them advance westward and capture Chengdu.
Wen'an's military base camp was designated as 5,000, and President Qin Liangyu's designated camp was 5,000. Together with the imperial camp, the Chuan Guixing camp was expanded to 8,000, and was stationed in Shunqing, Chongqing, and Kuizhou.
Songpan General Soldier led 3,000 provincial battalions to return to Songpan to garrison, and Jianchang General Soldier Cao Xun led 3,000 provincial battalions to return to Jianchang to garrison.
Zhongyong Town has ten thousand soldiers and horses, and led three thousand soldiers with stone pillars and white poles in this town to move to Zunyi.
On the map, the towns reorganized by General Wen'an were rearranged.
The first group is the standard camp of Wen Anzhi and Qin Liangyu plus the imperial camp of 8,000 and 18,000 soldiers and horses. They are stationed in Shunqing, Chongqing and Kuizhou. The main force is still stationed in Fenghuang Mountain to prevent Zhang Xianzhong from going to Sichuan. Go east, break through the defenses and go to Huguang, and be ready to join the Hanzhong War at any time.
Can attack and defend.
The second group, composed of Sichuan Governor Zhang Dai, Sichuan Admiral Qin Yiming, and Pianyuan Admiral Yuan Zong's second general, joined forces with nine thousand troops to recapture Chengdu, which had been destroyed by Zhang Xianzhong.
The remaining third group is the remaining general soldiers of the three towns in Sichuan, totaling 9,000, Songpan Town, Jianchang Town and Zhongyong Town. They returned to their respective bases of Songpan, Jianchang and Zunyi. Their mission is to clear out the bandits in the territory. , stabilize public security and restore people's livelihood.
Among these three groups of troops, only Yuan Zongdi's 3,000 troops were guest troops, while the rest were already soldiers from Sichuan Province.
There are only 36,000 troops and horses left in total.
The governors of Yunnan and Guizhou each had 3,000 standard camps, and then the admiral Pi Xiong also had 3,000 or 9,000 people return to their own provinces.
Compared to not long ago, when there were many people from all walks of life claiming to be hundreds of thousands, but actually there were hundreds of thousands, this time the killing was very fierce.
But Wen Anzhi's attitude was firm.
No matter how many soldiers there are without training, equipment, money and food, they are all useless.
It must be an elite army.
If these soldiers were integrated, there would be thirty-six thousand, which would be enough to defend Sichuan.
Coupled with 13,000 auxiliary troops, the total number is nearly 50,000.
In order to enhance the combat effectiveness of the army, not only the elite troops, but also all departments and battalions must be unified in organization.
The basic unit is a battalion, with 500 infantry battalions forming a battalion. A battalion is divided into four sentries at the front, rear, left and right, plus six teams of battalion officers and soldiers. Each sentry has eight teams under its jurisdiction, including two teams of shotgun teams and four teams of sword and spear teams. One team, two teams of heavy musketeers (if not, two teams of archers), each team consists of twelve people.
Each team consists of ten brave men, one captain, and one fire soldier.
Each sentry leader has a small team of seven guards, including one guard, five positive warriors, and one fire soldier.
The battalion officer's guard team consists of six teams, three teams of sword and spear teams, two teams of shotgun teams, and one team of artillery.
The entire battalion has 500 officers and soldiers, plus 180 auxiliary troops, which is completely in line with the standards of the imperial camp.
The military pay standard is one level lower than that of the imperial camp. Soldiers are divided into upper, middle, lower and upper auxiliaries. The lower auxiliaries share five ranks of combat auxiliaries. The upper-class soldiers are paid one qian three per day, the middle-class soldiers are one qian and two per day, the lower-class soldiers are one qian per day, and the upper-class auxiliary soldiers are paid one qian per day.
The salary is nine cents, and the auxiliary soldiers' daily salary is eight cents.
Half of the salary is paid during normal times, and the other part is paid during the New Year holidays.
If you go out to fight, you will be given one cent of food per day.
Those who pass the reorganization assessment will be rewarded with one tael of silver, those who fail will be rewarded with severance pay of 2 taels plus one dou of grain, and another six taels, but they need to go to the local government to withdraw it after returning to their hometown, and it needs to be divided into two years and ten
It will be collected in two months. If these soldiers do not return home or return to their hometowns to farm after being discharged, they will not be able to get this money.
Although the severance money has been increased, if it is paid in twelve installments a year, and it is only half a tael in January, it will not be so stressful for the time being. It can even encourage these people to return to their hometowns to work in farming and settle down, so as to prevent these soldiers from going elsewhere.
To rob or become a bandit, etc.
Those who were laid off received more, but those who stayed had long-term pay.
Naturally it is better to stay.
However, this time there were more than 100,000 people, and only less than 60,000 were left as combat auxiliaries. More than half of them had to be eliminated. Basically, the soldiers who participated in the mutiny this time could only be retained unless they had special skills or even were particularly brave.
Most of them will be abolished.
Those who remain must start as auxiliary soldiers first.
When the noble governor Fan Wenguang returned to Guiyang, he was responsible for bringing Wang Xiang, Zeng Ying, Wang Yingxiong and other criminal officials back to Guizhou, and then sent them to Pianqiao. When they got there, Governor Pianyuan would take over, and then send them to Changsha, and then Changsha
Zhu Shengli, who was in camp, sent them to Jiangxi and handed them over to Nanjing.
Zhang Shipeng selected 3,000 brave and strong soldiers from various armies. He did not select many veterans. He mainly selected some who had not been in the army for a long time but were young, strong and brave. This time, the army was expanded to 3,000 soldiers, and the auxiliary troops were also expanded.
They paid more than a thousand. This was naturally a good thing, but they did not dare to easily ask for the veterans of the military leaders, especially the former servants of the military leaders. They did not dare to ask for any of them.
