267 Deploying troops to suppress the rebellion

The reason why the Ming court's central cabinet did not supplement the local garrison army was mainly because many officers in the local garrison army were children of local gentry. Under the leadership of Qi Jiguang, the central cabinet was controlling the overall situation while stably consuming the strength of the local garrison army.

After seeing the combat effectiveness of the Semu Uprising Army, the Ming court was confident about the ending of the rebellion and suppression, and just used this uprising to train troops and eliminate local garrison troops.

Under unified deployment, the local garrison troops gradually lost their regional nature and were merged one by one. The suppression and consumption of the front line caused the garrison troops in different regions to be continuously reorganized.

The cabinet produced by the system is worthy of being at the level of a great god. This turmoil not only did not shake the foundation of the central court, but instead used the strength to clean up local powers!

In Richard's future plan, there was no need for the gentry class, and Richard needed more land to build his feudal legion.

For Richard, landlords can exist, but they must be warrior landlords rather than gentry landlords.

After all, the gentry and landlords cannot fight...

Although the time has been long and after several generations, the warrior landlords will also become gentry landlords who only know how to study, but they can form more combat power in the early days of the founding of the country!

Before the coming of the Industrial Revolution, the strongest combat effectiveness was undoubtedly the first generation of samurai feudal system.

Whether it is the medieval European knights in the history of the earth or the government system in East Asia, they actually belong to the feudal warrior system, which means that they can obtain the loyalty of a group of warriors by paying for the land, so as to conquer the world.

However, this system was very strong during the war and early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, but once the time of peace lasted for a long time, it would become.

The land passed down by the soldiers from the bottom of the class will be annexed in various ways, while the nobles at the top can use their power to become borers from each country by annexing the land, and live a happy life of collecting rent.

The gentry class left over from the Tang Dynasty belonged to the borers raised in peaceful times. Their ancestors all grew and grew little by little through military merits.

Of course, to Richard, they were just fat sheep.

However, in order to govern and stabilize, Richard could not eliminate all the gentry classes. Although he was an emperor, he could not destroy a class without reason...

What will other people think if doing that?

Even the military warriors who worked hard for Richard would worry if Richard would use up all their words and kill them...

Therefore, it is best for others to eliminate the gentry class without teeth. When the Ming army suppressed the rebellion as the envoy of justice, everything would become perfect.

In order to prevent the local gentry class from resurrecting from the dead, the local garrison troops they infiltrated also need to be weakened and finally merged into the newly established army!

Obviously, the newly formed army will eliminate the localist color!

Today's recruits are a kind of trial and experience.

In addition, after the Semu National People's Congress Uprising, the central cabinet also planned to completely solve this problem.

The first method is to massacre in the name of suppressing rebellion, and the second method is to recruit all the honest Seminary people into cannon fodder, and then enhance the social status of the families of these Seminary soldiers!

After all, everyone has seen the behavior of supporting the military family standing on the court in critical moments. As long as they become vested interests, Semi people are willing to join the Chinese citizenship!

Of course, the integration of the Tufan people is also under planning, but the Tufan people are a minority in the Western Regions and are not valued.

It was not until the fall of the first big city, Khotan City, at the end of the 7th year of the Ming Dynasty, that the central court reported the incident to Richard in the northwest after the Semu Uprising broke out in January 8th year of the Ming Dynasty.

This is mainly because the central government did not expect that this uprising would be so serious!

The gentry class in the entire Western Regions was severely damaged!

Even though hundreds of thousands of Seme serfs were slaughtered, the uprising was not completely suppressed.

It is precisely because of this that the central cabinet sent someone to inform Richard that as long as Richard draws back a main legion, he can completely suppress the seemingly large-scale uprising in the Western Regions.

After receiving the report, Richard did not mean to blame the cabinet. The cabinet had presented all the causes and consequences of the uprising to Richard, which also illustrates the benefits that the central court could obtain during this uprising.

Therefore, Richard quickly canceled the plan to retire the officers and soldiers of the field corps one after another, and transferred the auxiliary army and two field corps to the northern defense line instead of the Western Regions legion, and rely on the original city fortress to resist the army of green-skinned orcs heading south.

He brought his system troops and the Western Regions Legion back to the Western Regions.

However, most of the Jinyiwei's power was left behind. On the one hand, Genevieve, who was staying, continued to expand the Jinyiwei's power and recruit scattered warriors in the martial arts world.

On the other hand, they cooperated with Geneviv's undead legion to supervise the auxiliary legion of the Northern Line Defense and the two field legions to prevent them from escaping privately or making some small thoughts.

As for the newly trained recruits in the Northwest region, they formed ordinary corps on the spot to serve as public security garrison troops.

The military reform was forced to stop halfway through the process, and the originally abundant Ming army was once again tightened and started to operate.

Naturally, the plan for external expansion has also been postponed.

However, this time Richard did not lose his gains. Thanks to the Semu Uprising in the Western Regions, the central court mobilization was carried out thoroughly. The Han people did not want to be the lambs slaughtered by Semu people. Under the mobilization mechanism, the children of local gentry also lost their privileges and could only be a small soldier.

In this way, it provided a large amount of troops for Richard's subsequent military reforms.

At the same time, there are also alternatives to replace local garrison legions.

In Richard's future plan, field corps and garrison corpses with strong local colors will no longer be established.

All regular troops can be mobilized at any time and only obey the orders of the central government.

The regular army is divided into three levels: A, B and C according to its combat effectiveness and main responsibilities.

The C-level legion is a replica of the local garrison legion, but without a fixed base, it is moved wherever it needs to be. It is also a veritable new recruits, selecting the best among new recruits to supplement the two-class legion A and B.

Class A legion is naturally the veteran unit with the best equipment and the strongest combat effectiveness, and Class B legion is second.

The three major legions have clear hierarchical divisions in terms of welfare and power of officers and soldiers, forming a healthy competition system.

Among them, the legions of the system are of the Guards and have a higher status than the A-level legion!

In February 8th of the Ming Dynasty, Richard brought the Western Regions Legion back to the Western Regions and began to suppress the Semu Uprising on a large scale. If nothing unexpected happened, the Western Regions uprising that had been in trouble for nearly three months ended.
