Chapter 306 Quartet News
War is a new distribution of wealth.
From the start of Jinling on the fifth day of the second month to the liquidation and seizure of Zhu Qiang, in just over a month, the Scouts harvested nearly 100,000 taels of gold and more than 700,000 taels of silver.
Of these money, 20% of them belong to the Taiwei Mansion, 10% belong to the logistics of Chuzhou, and the remaining 70% are distributed by the soldiers from all over the country, plus the war damage pension.
Even so, everyone gains a lot.
Among them, soldiers with military merits will not only be rewarded with real money, but also be given a book of merit and promoted according to merit.
Huo Bao's two companions were An Changsheng, Li Yu, Jia Daishan, and he was not idle this time after he came out.
An Changsheng and Jia Daishan practiced martial arts, but did not follow Huo Bao and did not go out, but followed Hou Xiaoming's troops to attack Wujiang County.
Because Wujiang County magistrate and county magistrate were in charge of the battle, and county soldiers fought to the death, the war in Wujiang was very tragic.
More than 300 child soldiers were killed in battle, and more than 700 were seriously injured and slightly injured.
Similarly, the child soldiers killed more than 500 enemies, were seriously injured, and captured two thousand prisoners.
Both An Changsheng and Jia Daishan made military achievements.
"I beheaded one person and seriously injured two people!"
Jia Daishan hung his arms and was still trembling when talking about the battle a few days ago.
On the battlefield, there is no time to think too much; after the battle, he feels the sound of a sharp blade falling into his flesh.
But a few days passed, and when he thought of the tension and excitement on the battlefield, he only had a reminiscence.
If he did it again, he wouldn't be so frustrated.
He would not only behead one person, but also hurt himself.
Thinking of this, he glanced at An Changsheng with gratitude.
The situation was urgent at that time, and a county soldier set his sights on Jia Daishan.
He is here at such age, but he lacks experience and is very critical.
If An Changsheng hadn't pulled him, he wouldn't have had skin injuries and would have been cut off.
If he really wants to go to the battlefield for the first time, he will become a one-armed one, and then he will become a big joke.
An Changsheng was much more steady than Jia Daishan, and he did not talk about his achievements like him.
All military achievements are recorded in the book of achievements. If you have any publicity, you will know what you should know.
Huo Bao looked at the two of them and felt a toothache.
One pretends to be an adult, the other is really mature.
If he had followed his original intention, he would not have wanted the two teenagers to face the killing at such a young age.
Both of them are eleven or two years old, and they are still elementary school students in later generations.
But Jia Daishan is not old and has already shown a belligerent side. This time he is desperate to fight with his travels.
An Changsheng, who was born into a general, was the successor of the Navy in the future, could not be regarded as an ordinary child.
Jia Daishan beheaded one person and An Changsheng beheaded three people. If the military rules are followed, the former can be promoted to sergeant commander and the latter can be promoted to ten years.
"Daishan will follow the Great Sage in the future!"
Huo Bao made arrangements: "Remember the credit for immortality and enjoy long-term treatment."
If Jia Daishan wants to become a general, he must be able to achieve his qualifications step by step.
The next generation of Dukes in the future can never be slaughtered.
An Changsheng was training with Huo Bao. After that, he had to return to the navy and earn his military achievements first.
The two of them had no objection. Li Yu looked at them with envy in his eyes.
Huo Bao saw it and said nothing.
This time, Li Yu followed Zhu Qiang to fight, and he also made some contributions, but he was not as good as military merits, and it was not as good as being included in the book of merit.
Let's see later.
By the end of March, the main force of the "East Expedition Army" led by Deng Jian returned to Suzhou Fucheng.
After a few more days of rest, the army divided into two groups and returned to Jinling by water and land.
The navy soldiers escorted the surrendered ministers of the three prefectures and captured them back to Jinling by water.
Deng Jian and Huo Bao returned to Jinling by land.
The navy has a tower ship, so naturally the water route is more comfortable than the land route.
But water and fire are ruthless, and now it is the spring flood of the Yangtze River again, and the water flows fast. For safety, Deng Jian took Huo Bao to the land route.
Four hundred and twenty miles from Suzhou Prefecture to Nanjing, Deng Jian and others walked for ten days and returned to Jinling on April 15th.
In two and a half months, all the three prefectures were returned to the Chuzhou Army.
All over and over Jinling City were alarmed.
The tens of thousands of defenders in Suzhou were always uneasy. Now that the local area is over, the Chuzhou army is really stable.
Even if there was really any movement in the 100,000 imperial soldiers in Hangzhou, the Chuzhou army would not be afraid without worries.
Huo Wu brought the remaining generals in Jinling to welcome them out of the city in person.
"Okay, okay, Bokang made great contributions!"
Huo Wu looked at the tens of thousands of troops and the capture of hundreds of cars, patted Deng Jian on the shoulder and sighed deeply.
Baishan in Taizhou was surrounded by the rebels before, and the Taizhou army had no way to ask for help.
Unexpectedly, there was a sudden change in mid-March. The throne general was demoted and transferred to the official position and given poisonous wine. Hundreds of thousands of Shanxi troops were without a leader and were defeated by the Taizhou army.
The Taizhou army took the opportunity to capture more than 100,000 imperial troops and horses. They were preparing for ferries before, hoping to cross the river to capture Suzhou and Songjiang prefectures.
After the news of the Chuzhou army capturing the three prefectures, Baishan of Taizhou changed direction and did not cross the river.
There are many soldiers in Chuzhou, Jiangnan, and the white shirts of the Henan Province are like scattered sand. Naturally, the Taizhou army will not come to touch the hard bones of Chuzhou army.
The "East Expedition Army" successfully captured Changzhou, Suzhou and Songjiang before the Taizhou Army. It obtained three resources: iron, grain and salt, and also trained its troops. The captures were really a killing of numbers.
"There are good news in Luzhou. I got Shuzhou at the end of February and Shouzhou in mid-March!"
Huo Wu reported the good news to everyone.
The "Five Prefectures Guide" was formulated at the beginning of the year and all of them were obtained.
However, what is worrying is that the Qichun Army's nest was raided by the imperial court to suppress the rebels. The Qichun Army's No. 1 general under Shoutianwan was killed in battle. The main force of the Qichun Army withdrew from Jiangbei and headed south to Wuchang Prefecture.
Wuchang Prefecture is one thousand miles away from Jinling Prefecture.
Because of the Qichun Army's "Eastern Expedition" and "Southern Expedition" last year, most of the territory among the Qichun Army and Chuzhou Army has been occupied by the Qichun Army.
Even if the troops were lost this time and the old nest of Qichun, the Qichun army actually occupied more than a dozen prefectures.
Even if the Chuzhou Army has completed its strategy this spring, there are only twelve prefectures, which is not as good as the Qichun Army for the time being.
"But there is a change in Beijing?"
Deng Jian asked.
The Qichun Army is thousands of miles away from Jinling, and the two places are still incompatible at one time; the Taizhou Army is close to Yangzhou, and is only separated from Suzhou and Songjiang.
It is too strange that the rebel general is poisoned to death.
"The emperor has appointed the crown prince!"
Huo Wu shook his head and said, "I'm so confused. I actually poisoned the marshal to suppress the rebellion for this!"
When the emperor was thirty years old, it was time to establish the crown prince.
However, because the emperor had no legitimate son, the emperor loved the son of the imperial concubine, which made the queen dissatisfied.
The queen was born into a noble family, and her uncles and brothers were all commanding soldiers and controlled 40% of the troops in the world.
The queen's legitimate son died young and wanted to make the adopted palace son the prince.
In order to establish a prince, the emperor fought with the queen clan and ignored local destruction, and then used this to weaken the power of the queen clan.
As early as last year when the imperial court sent troops to "recover" Hangzhou Prefecture, the emperor made trouble and transferred a marshal from the rear tribe.
This time, the Shanxi troops were transferred south, and the same trick was repeated again.
"This is crazy!"
When Huo Bao mentioned the emperor, he felt inexplicably: "Is this arrogance to be afraid of the world's defeat? A capable general is either killed or idle. He married his daughter to borrow strength. He wanted to cross the river and destroy the bridge after borrowing the strength? If he really had that ability, he could find a replacement and could gather military power, he was just a fool, and the good situation was ruined!"
Although Baishan in Taizhou is a stunning person, there are only two states. Hundreds of thousands of troops came to suppress the rebellion and surrounded him tightly. Victory is about the matter of time and night.
But this loser emperor did not want to "recover" the place, but was afraid that the general would not be able to deal with it if he won, so he made an excuse to transfer the main general away, which would immediately reverse the situation.
Master Lin touched his beard and said, "If the heaven wants to die, he will make him crazy!"
The leader of the village clasped his lips and said, "I have been trying hard to establish a prince for three years. If I am really a little bit simple, I will directly depose the queen... I will use it for a while and then peel it for a while, so I will not be afraid of forcing the queen to rebel!"
Deng Jian raised his eyebrows and said, "It would be great if the Jin family could fight back!"
The Jin family is the largest general today, with more than a dozen generals in one sect.
Jin Zhuo is just an illegitimate child. He is raised in the polite branch and has much better qualifications than ordinary people.
During this "Eastern Expedition", the general who made the greatest contribution was Jin Cuo.
