Late Tang Dynasty: I

Chapter 255 Bian Army Reorganization
Du Rangneng remonstrated: "Your Majesty, the title of the imperial court is the most important weapon of the country, and it cannot be easily promised!"

Li Ye shook his head and said: "If Duke Du can help me keep these victorious warriors, how can I be stingy with a prince!"

Li Ye looked at Du Rangneng's stunned expression, and said with a smile, "Mr. Du thinks that I really have nothing to do for fun?"

His Majesty the Emperor wants to wipe out all the strong men in the towns!

But are these people willing to leave their hometown? They can only be wooed with money and fields.

"As long as you are willing to come to Bianliang, you will be given a hundred acres of land and fifty guan, what does Duke Du think?"

Du Rangneng calculated that 1 guan is needed for 50 people, and 2 million guan is needed for 100 people. You can't spend so much money for a single battle!

"There is no problem with granting land. Now that the states are withered, a lot of fertile land is barren. The imperial court can't cut down ten thousand hectares of land, but is it too much for fifty guan? Ten Guan's settling fee is enough!"

Li Ye nodded and said: "Follow what you said first, if it doesn't work, add more money!"

But Li Yun's way is more wild.

"Your Majesty, the last general thinks that after the military campaign, these people can be called to a banquet, and all these people will be detained directly and rewarded with kindness. Anyone who refuses to obey can be killed..."

It's okay to have a banquet, and you can also find some people to mix in with the rhythm, creating an atmosphere of loyalty if you stay, and rebellion if you leave. His Majesty the Emperor knows this kind of thing.

As for killing, there is no need.

But how to get the family members of these people in?

Wei Boluo Hongxin asked the imperial court to let him release him. It is not a big problem. Zhu Xuan and Zhu Jin would not dare to detain him. Wu Ning and Ping Lu may have to spend some time.

Li Ye appointed Li Yun as the envoy of the supervisor, and Ma Yuehui, a member of the Ministry of official affairs, was in charge, and set up ten test centers in the school grounds in the western suburbs of Xuanwu.

Dozens of clerks were also sent into the military villages to record the applicants and record their hometowns in detail.

It only took one day to sign up, and the towns were quite active, with more than [-] people signing up.

Among them, the Hedong army has the largest number of horsemen and shooters, while the Weibo army is good at strength and infantry. As for the towns in Shandong, they are similar to Weibo.

Among the troops of the imperial court, because they had been selected once, the number of them was much smaller, but there were exceptions. The pro-army and pro-cavalry were all selected cavalry, and all members signed up for riding and shooting.

At the same time, the reorganization of the Xuanwu Army is also in full swing.

Dozens of people in charge of the household department and more than a hundred former Xuanwu officials have completed the compilation of 10,000+ soldiers of the Xuanwu Army.

Every soldier has his household registration, the population of his family, and those who know each other in the army are guaranteed. A copy of the military register is copied and sent to the prefectures and counties for verification. This is done very meticulously.

As for the coerced caizhou soldiers, that is even easier. Call the caizhou army register, and the file can be retrieved from the number branded on the face.

Although the imperial court pardoned their capital crimes, the living crimes are hard to forgive. Each person's sentence will be added to one year, and the family's tax will be increased by [-]%. of military settlements.

Compared with the severe punishment of Caizhou's surrender, the imperial court's treatment of Xuanwu soldiers was much gentler.

His Majesty the Emperor ordered to abolish the strict military law of "drawing the sword and beheading", and said, "Xuanwu rebellion, I will only pursue Zhu Wen, and the rest are innocent!"

In addition, after the imperial army entered Xuanwu, they had no crimes against the people. They would rather kill the Weibo Ya army than protect the safety of the people in Bianliang. For a while, the Xuanwu army felt at ease.

His Majesty the Emperor also issued an edict that anyone in the Xuanwu Army who is over [-] years old, or who is disabled, can receive three pensions and return to his hometown. Hundred acres.

Or the Ministry of Officials can send people to be selected. Those who meet the conditions can serve as city guards, government servants in various states and counties, and Lizhengs in various li.

"The emperor's grace is mighty!"

With this edict, all the soldiers in Xuanwu burst into tears of gratitude.

Regardless of whether it is negative or not, the mass base is there.

Caizhou removed more than 4 soldiers, over 40 years old and disabled, and another 1 people, 6 or 4 people were resettled, and there were still more than [-] people left.

These more than [-] people were organized into five armies. No military titles were given, and the former army, the rear army, the left army, the right army, and the middle army temporarily replaced them.

Since the Zuoyongwu Army, regulations have been established. An army without credit will not be awarded a military title, and naturally it will not be included in the ranks of the forbidden army. It will not enjoy the benefits of ancestral temple worship and taxes.

The former army consisted of 8000 soldiers, all of whom were infantry, divided into eight capitals, each with 1000 soldiers, and the commander of the army was Shu Cong, the commanding officer of the Right Xuanwu Ya Army.

The rear army had [-] infantry, also eight capitals, and the commander of all of them was Guo Yan, the commander of the original Bian army Bashandu.

The left army had [-] infantry, divided into eight capitals, and all of them commanded Niu Cunjie, the capital of the Zuo Xuanwu Ya army of the original Bian army.

The right army had [-] infantry, divided into eight capitals, all commanded Kou Yanqing, the commander of the right long straight army.

The 8000 horse army is a very powerful force, and it must not be controlled by one person. Li Ye divided the horse team into four quarters, and each team set up four capitals, each with 500 people, a total of 2000 people.

The commanders are respectively, the commander of the left wing of the Chinese army is Wang Qianyu, the former vanguard officer of the left army of the Bian army, the commander of the right wing of the Chinese army is Kang Huaiying, the former right vanguard officer of the Bian army, and the commander of the front wing of the Chinese army is the commander of the left Changzhi army The envoy Pang Shigu, the commander of the rear chamber of the Chinese army, was Liu Zhijun, the commander of the deputy capital of the emperor's pro-army.

Each army is equipped with marching Sima, Marquis of Duyu, Sicao, Duzhi and other officials from the imperial court.

The remaining ones that have not been reorganized are: more than [-] people under the commander of Shangke, the governor of Bozhou, more than [-] people under the commander of Zhengzhou Xie Yanzhang, and more than [-] people under the commander of Caozhou Wang Zhongshi.

Shi Shucong led the reorganized 8000 former army to Bozhou to replace Shangke, who led the army back to Bianliang.

Guo Yan led the reorganized rear army of 8000 people to Caozhou to replace Wang Zhongshi, who then led the army back to Bianliang.

Kou Yanqing led the reorganized right army of 8000 people to Zhengzhou to replace Xie Yanzhang, and Xie Yanzhang led the army back to Bianliang.

The principle for the imperial court to choose generals to guard the outer towns is that the generals have a relatively large local ethnic group, such as Kou Yanqing, who was born in a family of Xuanwu Yajun, and the local forces are deeply rooted.

But it is not the case when they are sent to other towns. Such generals will basically not rebel, because the price of rebellion is too high.What's the point of rebelling after a hundred years and the family is extinct?

Decades of training in the previous life made Li Ye secretly think about people's minds. After three tricks, Xuanwu was completely stable. At this time, he wanted to talk to Luo Hongxin about how to deal with the more than 2000 Wei Bo government troops.

"Your Majesty, these yamen soldiers are all bewitched by Zhang Yunqing and Xu Chuanzhen, who are guarding the yamen soldiers on the left and right sides. Please punish Zhang and Xu. I beg your majesty to forgive these soldiers!"

Li Ye looked at Luo Hongxin, the expression on his face didn't change at all, you Luo Hongxin thought I was a brat.

When I was practicing Qi Cultivation Kungfu, your bones had already turned to ashes.

Talking about strategy, Li Ye can slap Luo Hongxin, how could a little trick be fooled by his sharp eyes.

Lao Luo wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, and killed Zhang Yunqing and Xu Chuanzhen, two thorns in his eyes, with the hands of His Majesty the Emperor.

Then pour hatred on the imperial court, accept the hearts of these government soldiers with the intention of saving each other, and then control the entire Weibo.

Luo Hongxin, what a beautiful thought, even if the emperor allows you to get what you want, have you really accepted Yajun's heart?

What a joke.

"Let's talk!" Li Ye looked at Luo Hongxin, piercing straight to the marrow...
