Han’s Son is Not a Slave: Chapter 609 There are people to vote

Zhao Ziqiang's performance in the battle of Xiaobeishan sounded the alarm for Zhou Shixiang. In order to avoid the discord between the town generals in the future, or the discord between the town generals and the governor, which would lead to the failure of the war, Zhou Shixiang decided to establish a field army in Guangxi to integrate The troops and horses of all towns in Guangxi have clear command and orders, and unify their powers to avoid the phenomenon of town generals fighting each other and disobeying the transfer orders. At the same time, it also prevents the generals from embracing their own troops.

The Guangxi Corps is composed of the fourth town, the fifth town, and the new wolf soldiers. There are more than 31,000 soldiers. In terms of weapons, there are 5,200 fire guns, 83 artillery pieces, knives, spears, bows, wolves and other weapons. There are 725 iron armors, 12,300 cotton armors, 652 war horses, and 1360 horses. The newly integrated Guangxi Corps is currently the main task of annihilating the Qing army under the National Security Department of the line and blocking the border between Guizhou and Guizhou.

In view of Yu Shizhong's outstanding performance in the battle of Xiaobei Mountain, Zhou Shixiang ordered him to serve as the commander of the Guangxi Field Army, and the officers and soldiers of the following towns remained unchanged. The fifth town is still under the leadership of Shizhong and is directly under the command of the commander.

Yu Shizhong was very loyal to the Ming Dynasty and the Yongli court. Since his expedition to Guangxi, he wrote to Zhou Shixiang three times to invite him to enter Yunnan as soon as possible. Therefore, Yu Shizhong was appointed as the commander of the Guangxi Field Army. Quite a lot. Zhao Sihai, who was suppressing bandits in western Hunan, even went back to Yuanzhou on purpose, and bluntly said that using that surrendered general Zhao Ziqiang as the governor of the expeditionary army was already blind to the old brothers, but because the expeditionary army used soldiers Annan, this move is somewhat similar Exiled, so the brothers reluctantly recognized him. But this Yu Shizhong was only a brigade school before, and he was from Zhejiang. How could he overwhelm Shao Jiugong and become the commander of the Guangxi Corps in one fell swoop?

In this regard, Zhou Shixiang's answer is that talented people should be used regardless of background as long as they have made great achievements. If meritorious deeds are not rewarded, and demerits are not punished, why should an army be established, and why should the whole army return to their hearts?

And to Zhao Sihai in private, it is true that Yu Shizhong is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, but our Taiping Army is also a soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and we are also people of the Ming Dynasty.

Compared with Shizhong, who was promoted to the army commander with the position of brigade school, the old brother Shao Jiugong, governor of Guangxi, no longer served as the fourth town general, but his deputy general Wang Youxi took over. At the same time, the Guangxi Governor's Yamen moved to Nanning, and Liuzhou was changed to the headquarters of the Guangxi Corps Commander. The former general Hu Ben and the tenth town general Wang Xing were still under the command of the Guangxi governor. The future task of the tenth town is to exterminate the indigenous armed forces in the southern and western mountainous areas of Guangxi under the command of the governor of Guangxi. Ming Tong. Shao Jiugong, the governor of Guangxi, will become a veritable governor in the future, and his main energy will be on restoring production, relocating victims, recruiting refugees, and establishing local government affairs in Guangxi.

In terms of power alone, Shao Jiugong, the governor, has greatly reduced his power. Previously, he led the Taiping Army in various towns in Guangxi as governor, and took control of the military and politics of Guangxi. Now, he can only manage the local area, only for the first officer who was turned into a garrison in Guangxi. Ten towns have the right to raise the command, which must be said to have been cut.

However, Shao Jiugong did not feel much loss for not being able to serve as the commander of the Guangxi Corps. Instead, he felt relieved, and his heart fell like a big stone.

Human beings have self-knowledge. Shao Jiugong knows that his talents are limited, he is overly ambitious, and he is not aggressive enough. This is a rare quality in the Chengping season, but now the Ming and Qing are fighting, and the Taiping army is fighting against the hundreds of thousands of Qing troops in the southwest. It seems a little inappropriate. If he could be a little more daring in the battle of Xiaobeishan, I am afraid that Wu Mazi would not die in the battle. If he pushed forward, Gao Jinku might not be defeated in Dushan Prefecture. In short, Shao Jiugong thought that he could not lead the army. If he really wanted him to continue to preside over the Guangxi war, there might be some mistakes. Handing over the Guangxi Field Army to Yu Shizhong was actually Shao Jiugong's suggestion, because he also felt that Yu Shizhong was stronger than himself.

Shao Jiugong handed over the fourth town to the deputy general Wang Youxi, and then brought a group of yamen members to congratulate Yu Shizhong, the commander of Rongshengdu, all the materials in Liuzhou City were sealed and reserved for Yu Shizhong to send staff to receive, he did not take them away. anything. After the handover, he left Liuzhou by boat and went to Nanning alone to take up his post.

After Yu Shizhong became the commander of the Guangxi Corps, it took seven days to integrate the various ministries. After a new batch of medicines from Guangdong arrived in Liuzhou, he commanded the fourth town and the fifth town to launch an attack on Qingyuan's line of national security. .

......

The establishment of the Taiping Expeditionary Army and the Guangxi Field Army took a lot of energy from Zhou Shixiang, and even postponed the strategic plan of marching into Guizhou in early April to annihilate the king of Qingping County, Luo Keduo.

Zhao Ziqiang led his troops to Qinzhou with a navy warship, and when Yu Shizhong led his troops to storm Qingyuan City, a juren suddenly came from Yuanzhou.

Zhou Shixiang was not the one who first met with the Juren, but he read the picture of the weapon first, and after reading it, he set out on the table, causing the person who presented the book to be brought in immediately.

This person is Cheng Hanbin, a scholar of Huguang who just returned from Beijing at the beginning of the year. Cheng Hanbin originally wanted to go back to his hometown in Hubei to see his parents first, but Hubei was in chaos due to the invasion of the Kuidong soldiers, and the land and water transportation was inconvenient, so Cheng Hanbin turned to Baoqing Prefecture in Hunan, where he inquired about the Taiping Army in Hunan. After the situation, he went straight to Yuanzhou.

On the way, Cheng Hanbin was treated as a Qing army spy several times and asked the Taiping army to arrest him~www.mtlnovel.com~ But I heard that he was going to Yuanzhou to join the Taiping army commander, and the Taiping army all over the place opened doors for him. Guo Dengdi from the ninth town heard that there was someone who wanted to go to Beijing to participate in the Qing court examination to join the Taiping Army, and even sent someone to **** Cheng Hanbin all the way to Yuanzhou, which greatly increased Cheng Hanbin's affection for the Taiping Army. . Cheng Hanbin also saw the suffering of the people in Hunan who suffered from the military disaster along the way, and kept it in his heart, thinking about how to speak to the "thief scholar" after arriving in Yuanzhou.

After arriving in Yuanzhou, the soldiers escorted by the ninth town sent Cheng Hanbin to the military commander's mansion and returned to the station. It was the blind man Li who was in charge of guarding the military commander's mansion in Yuanzhou. Blind Li was also curious when he heard that there was a recruiter to vote. For a long time, the Taiping Army had never received any scholars from the Qing-occupied areas to throw troops and surrender to the city, so it is rare to suddenly take the initiative to vote. thing.
