It was Guo Dajing's idea to divide the Jurchens into different ministries and treat them differently.
People like Yehe, Hada, and Hula can enjoy better treatment, and can even integrate into the Liao people and become a minority.
As for the Jurchens in Jianzhou, those who had not performed any meritorious service were considered serfs and were managed by other Jurchen tribesmen.
Of course, in order to make the Jianzhou Jurchens work harder and work harder, an incentive mechanism must be devised.
For example, if you mine coal and farm land for a few years without causing trouble, you will be treated like a civilian and even be given land.
Carrot and stick, it's as simple as that. Guo Dajing didn't want to use any complicated means. He felt that it was a gift to keep these prisoners alive.
As for Dorgon and other slave chiefs, even if they escape with their lives, they are still hanging on and there is nothing to worry about. It is almost impossible to make a comeback after being together for ten years.
It can be said that the Pingliao Campaign was a great success. It not only recovered the lost territory, but also defeated the Jianlu and made them no longer a threat.
This was originally the goal set by Guo Dajing. Now it has exceeded expectations and is very satisfactory. It can even be said that he is overjoyed.
As everyone in the war room stood up to salute, Guo Dajing also stood up to greet Mao Wenlong.
"It's because I'm getting older, so I still have a headache from ordering wine." Mao Wenlong waved his hand at Guo Dajing, smiling self-deprecatingly.
Guo Dajing said with a smile: "The general has just woken up, and the drunkenness has not passed yet!"
Mao Wenlong didn't believe it and shook his head with a smile. After he sat down and took the tea from the soldiers, he slowly said: "If you have the latest military information, please tell me."
Guo Dajing picked up the urgent report sent by Liu Xingzuo and said: "The flying cavalry regiment has caught up with Jianlu's group, but more than half of them have already crossed the river. They beheaded thousands and captured tens of thousands of Jianlu."
"Where is it?" Mao Wenlong's eyes lit up and he looked at the map on the table.
Guo Dajing pointed with his finger and said: "That's it. The remnants of the Jianlu captives have fled north. The Flying Cavalry Regiment doesn't have much food and grass left, and they are escorting the prisoners back to the army."
Mao Wenlong looked at the map carefully, nodded slightly and said: "We have pursued far enough, and it is safe to return to the army. The Jianlu were hit hard, and the possibility of a comeback is unlikely. Very good, Liaodong has been reconstructed and restored peace for several years.
period."
Guo Dajing said: "What the commander said is absolutely true."
Mao Wenlong took a sip of tea, let out a sigh of relief, and said: "In this case, I will take a boat back to Liaonan. This body is so weak that even riding a horse feels tired."
"It's better to take a boat, it's faster." Guo Dajing said with a smile: "The general will stay in Shenyang temporarily, so don't worry, Commander."
"Why are you worried?" Mao Wenlong waved his hand casually, "When all the messy finishing work here is arranged, you can go back to Liaonan and have a good rest."
Guo Dajing nodded in agreement, knowing that although the war was over, there were still many things that needed to be arranged and dealt with. Mao Wenlong left everything to him, firstly, because of his trust, and secondly, it might not be too much trouble.
Although Shenyang is a big city, it looks dilapidated and dilapidated after being set on fire by the rebels. More importantly, there are no residents or shops, making it look deserted and monotonous.
Of course, the garrison in the city is now working, repairing houses, cleaning up the streets, and demolishing badly burned buildings, but it still seems to have no atmosphere of life.
Guo Dajing had no choice in this matter. The navy tried its best to transport grain and grass supplies, but it could only satisfy the garrisons in Shenyang and northern Liaoning, and it was difficult to immigrate again.
According to the plan, Shenyang and surrounding areas will also be dominated by large-scale military settlements next year. After sufficient grain and grass supplies are accumulated, immigration will be completed.
Fortunately, the government set up shops and taverns in the city to facilitate the garrison to relieve boredom. Guo Dajing also planned to build a military club in the city to enrich the garrison's spare time life.
"While the garrison in Shenyang has not yet been finalized, the general wants to place the officers and soldiers who will retire next year in Shenyang." Guo Dajing drank tea and asked Mao Wenlong for instructions, "About three to four thousand people, let them become the first batch in Shenyang.
Citizens."
Mao Wenlong was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and asked: "You mean, you want to allocate houses to them, and then take over their family papers?"
Guo Dajing nodded and said: "There are still nearly two months until the Chinese New Year. It is completely possible for the officers and soldiers in the garrison to get together with their families and have a good New Year."
This may have been a temporary idea, but Guo Dajing still estimated the cost. If the government couldn't come up with it, he would be willing to pay for it.
In this case, the garrison becomes both soldiers and civilians, adding a lot of popularity to Shenyang City. When they retire next year, these officers and soldiers can farm outside the city or make a living inside the city.
According to the development of the situation, Shenyang does not belong to the border, and those left behind will also be the garrison. These retired officers and soldiers are fully qualified.
"In addition, the remnants of Jianlu are no longer a problem, and the number of troops can be further reduced." Guo Dajing continued: "Forty thousand cavalry and ten thousand marines will eventually be considered enough."
The 40,000 cavalrymen are all mobile troops. When the remaining Jianlu troops no longer pose a threat, they can indeed be used for foreign campaigns. Only Hu Duntu is left, which is no match at all.
Ten thousand marines were Guo Dajing's first step towards conquering the sea, and were enough to sweep away any enemy on land.
In fact, 30,000 cavalry is almost enough. However, there are too many generals to be deployed, so the number of troops cannot be too small.
"Forty thousand cavalry!" Mao Wenlong pondered for a moment and said: "If all of them are used for foreign campaigns, I think it is enough! How many parts do you plan to divide them into?"
Guo Dajing said: "The general thought that it could be divided into eight or ten groups, each with four to five thousand cavalry, capable of independent combat."
Western Liaoning, Northern Liaoning, and Eastern Liaoning are mainly the borders of these three places that need to be guarded. The focus will be on Western Liaoning and Northern Liaoning. Eastern Liaoning can be maintained by the garrison, while Southern Liaoning is safer and has enough militia.
Each of the six key border areas of Ningyuan, Jinzhou, Yizhouwei, Guangning, Xinmin, and Changtu is stationed in one unit, and the remaining troops are stationed in Shenyang as the general reserve force.
"Then let's divide it into ten units!" Mao Wenlong felt that there were not enough officers to accommodate him, so he pondered for a moment and said, "There is also the Marine Corps. It is set at 9,000 people and divided into three battalions. It should be feasible!"
Guo Dajing nodded and said: "In addition to the Marine Corps, there is also a navy, which totals more than 10,000 people. The general will prepare to divide it into three squadrons."
Mao Wenlong slightly chinned his head and said: "How to arrange the ancestor's birthday? Is it appropriate to still be in western Liaoning?"
Mao Wenlong was still a little alienated from the outsiders from Liao Town, even though they had basically integrated into Dongjiang Town.
Guo Dajing smiled and said: "The entire Liaodong will be divided into four divisions at the end. It can be divided into Liaodong, North Liaoning, and South Liaoning."
Since Mao Wenlong was worried, Guo Dajing was happy to make him satisfied and relieved.
