Later, Zhao Xun summoned the middle and high-level leaders of each unit to summarize experiences and lessons. This counterattack was completely different from the previous battles. An overwhelming heavy snow changed the way of fighting. This was something the Huolin Army had never encountered before.
Been there.
The Huolin Army lacked experience in fighting in the snow and did not have suitable equipment. It was difficult to choose between armor and cotton-padded clothes. In order to keep out the cold, they had to wear cotton-padded clothes. But in order to prevent the enemy from killing and wounding, they had to wear armor. As a result, some soldiers
At a loss what to do.
Others specifically mentioned that due to the impact of snow, it has a great impact on soldiers wearing thick armor, especially the heavy armored battalion. The soldiers of the heavy armored battalion are the only team wearing armor.
After the battle, it took a lot of effort to take off the heavy armor on the body. Due to the cold and the penetration of snow and water, a considerable part of the armor had already and
The skin and flesh are tightly connected together, and the contact parts must be slowly soaked in warm water, and only after they are completely thawed can the armor and skin and flesh be slowly separated. This phenomenon makes the heavy armor camp basically useless in the cold winter, especially during the heavy snow season.
It cannot be used smoothly. Therefore, more efforts are needed to cope with severe cold weather.
After the conference, naturally, people will be rewarded based on their merits.
In this battle, many people made meritorious service. Whether they were cavalry battalions or infantry, a large number of soldiers received rewards. Zhao Xun generously rewarded them with large sums of money and encouraged them to continue fighting bravely.
In the next few days, Bai County Town seemed very calm. Due to the continuous heavy snow and the difficulty in replenishing supplies, the cavalry battalions from Yanzhou Prefecture were transferred to various places to share the later pressure of Bai County Town. Zhao Xun still needed to stay temporarily to provide support to the front line.
The government troops rested and recuperated, and at the same time provided comfort and post-war encouragement to the people of Bai County, and organized and settled the victims of the war.
Back and forth, the heavy snow flew for five days before it stopped. Between the sky and the earth, there was nothing but white. The snow piled up outdoors was about knee-deep, making walking very inconvenient. What's worse, many people
The houses of poor people were also crushed by heavy snow. If not
Zhao Xun had already taken precautions and had troops stationed in various places patrol day and night to rescue the victims in time and place them in military camps. He was afraid that many people would die. Even so, there were still many people covered by heavy snow, seemingly white.
The flawless heavy snow brought heavy disasters to the people.
After the heavy snow stopped, Zhao Xun immediately organized manpower to clean up the snow in the whole city, especially some extremely dangerous houses, and immediately swept down the covered savings to avoid causing other troubles. As for other counties, Zhao Xun also
With advance orders, we started taking action the day the snow stopped.
As soon as this move came out, not only did the people of Yanzhou Prefecture support the Huolin Army, but even Yingzhou Prefecture, which had just been recovered, completely returned to their hearts. I dare not say that the army and the people jointly built it, and they were affectionate, but the Huolin Army soldiers helped with the disaster relief and rescued the people.
Homeless people rebuild their homes to provide them with livelihood
Compared with the old Yingzhou Prefecture army and government, the Huolin Army did not know how many rounds they had to make, let alone the Mohe Army. In comparison, the depth of the heavy snow in Yingzhou Prefecture was shallower than that of Yanzhou Prefecture.
, but Yingzhou Prefecture has indeed just experienced war. It is also not much better.
Soup shelters have been set up in each county, and resettlement sites for victims have also been set up outside the city. Prefectures that have taken preventive measures in advance have also provided some cotton clothes to ensure that the victims are properly resettled. In addition, Beihai Navy University
The accumulated clothing and animal skins also contributed a lot to the Fire Lin Army.
After careful consideration, Zhao Xun began to adopt those lonely orphans in the counties of the two prefectures, gathered them together, and placed them in the valley on the west side of Yanzhou City, not far from the racecourse of Yanzhou City.
The guard camp sends people to train. After they learn the abilities they need to learn, they will be assigned to different positions. For this reason, in just a few days, the Huolin Army led
Raised more than 2,000 children. In this era, every family gave birth to a large number of children. In times of disaster, these children were either sold by their parents who could not make a living, or they became orphans without a father or mother. The Fire Lin Army was stationed in various places.
, after receiving Zhao Xun's instructions, they gathered these children and moved them to Yanzhou City. The youngest among them was five years old, and the oldest was thirteen years old.
Yang Wangzhen, who inspected the counties with Wei Dong, also sent back the news. It may be that the Huolin Army regained the land of the two prefectures soon, or it may be that all the officials were promoted out of the ordinary. These officials have not yet appeared to have a simple meal, and there may be some big ones.
Problems, big and small, are mostly caused by unskilled work. After Yang Wang
However, it was Yang Wangzhen's inspection on behalf of Zhao Xun. This appearance of something like an imperial envoy made the county officials, whether it was Yanzhou Prefecture or the newly-administered Yingzhou Prefecture, dare not
Without the slightest slightest carelessness or neglect, he did what he was supposed to do with great efficiency.
In addition to the results of inspections in various places, Yang Wangzhen also put forward a series of suggestions, such as repairing the official roads between counties, especially some large towns, to connect them and not leaving them alone with those under their jurisdiction.
Outside. Increased convection
Attracting the people, especially Yingzhou Prefecture, the entire Yifu area is vast and sparsely populated, and the population is less than half of Yanzhou Prefecture. The reason for this is that the oppression of the government is becoming more and more intense for a while. Another important reason is that the Mohe Army
They were oppressed and fled to the northern and southern prefectures.
Yang Wangzhen also proposed to establish an official system at the prefecture level to coordinate the development of the counties in the same prefecture. Counties in the same prefecture should not be allowed to only care about themselves and cannot advance in coordination. In addition, the Huolin Army implemented a separation of military and political affairs, and government affairs were separated.
Yes, we really need a government-level government, and even
There is a need for a system that is superior to the various governments to manage and control them. Yang Wangzhen means that if it is inconvenient to appoint officials at the government level due to the relationship with the imperial court, they can be appointed by proxy, and when necessary, they can be appointed to the government level.
The imperial court requested instructions. As for whether the instructions are approved or not, we do not need to pay attention.
Finally, Yang Wangzhen also suggested that Zhao Xun needs a name, or a military yamen, in the Huolin Army. In addition, the balance between the cavalry captain and the general of the army, and the balance between the cavalry captain and the infantry captain
Both high and low must be reasonable
Arrangements. In recent years, the various prefectures have been fighting endlessly. Although the rapid actions of the Huolin Army did not cause too many deaths to the people of the two prefectures, the people's livelihood in the two prefectures did suffer great damage. Fortunately, the Huolin Army
The army distributed land and allowed the people to
There is new hope. However, this method of depriving the landlords of their fields, distributing it to the people, and obtaining grain and grass from the landlords can only be used for a while. We cannot continue to use this drastic method on a large scale. Therefore, in the short term, we cannot
continue
To fight against the Mohe Army, we need to vigorously develop the area. However, we can plan for the remaining areas, attract forces to counterattack the Mohe Army, and consume the strength of the Mohe Army. When the time comes, we can achieve the goal we need with a thunderous strike.
.
After reading Yang Wangzhen’s report, it is almost similar to the suggestions mentioned by Lu Ziliang and Situ Liang. The only difference is that Yang Wangzhen also mentioned that the Shadow Guard of the Fire Lin Army needs to be reformed, both internally and externally.
Intelligence agencies cannot rely on just one, as this is not conducive to covering all aspects of the situation. This includes
He understood that this kind of power must be controlled, otherwise it may hurt himself. After thinking about it, he listed Yang Wangqing, Liu Wenqi, Liu Wenqian, Zhang Yuanjing, and Li Lingfeng and Li Luobei who had not returned to various places with the army.
Zhao Kang, Zhao Jie, Zhao Fei and other generals also called in to discuss the suggestions put forward by Yang Wangzhen and others.
Seeing that several of their own people had also been called in by Zhao Xun and gathered together with seven or eight generals of the Fire Lin Army around them, Liu Wenqi and the others immediately understood that the performance of these people had caught Zhao Xun's eyes, and they were officially captured by Zhao Xun.
He asked for acceptance and became a core member of the Fire Lin Army. The four of them looked at each other and showed a touch of joy. After all, they escaped from the Northern Navy and had no way to go and no home. Now they finally have something to offer.
Once you have a place to stay, your talents can be put to use.
"Originally, after the war, we should return to Yanzhou City and discuss everything. But although the heavy snow has stopped, the roads are impassable. So we still have to stay here for a few days. If we are idle, we will talk about Situ Liang.
, Lu Ziliang and Yang Wang really suggested to see how to solve it." After everyone sat down, Zhao Xun said.
Let everyone take turns to read several submissions first, so that everyone can have a rough preparation in mind.
"Let's talk about it. What do they think?"
Several people looked at each other and said nothing. Li Luobei was the first to speak: "These suggestions are mostly related to people's livelihood and government affairs, and have little to do with the military. But I think what they said is still very reasonable. If nothing else,
, that is, repairing official roads in various counties, one for
The work-for-relief method can solve the problem of victims flowing into our jurisdiction. Even though we have made preparations and the war has calmed down, there are still tens of thousands of victims, not to mention the surrounding prefectures. This will benefit the country.
It benefits the people and is conducive to the rapid mobilization of our army, which is feasible."
"As for the establishment of a government system at the government level, I think it is necessary, but it will also bring us a series of troubles. Our current behaviors have gone beyond the normal system of the court. As for how to do it, we only know how to do it.
People who fight don’t know much about war.”
Lin Luo said: "The Huolin Army really needs a top system, which can at least govern the civil and military officials of the two prefectures. It cannot always be this vague situation. The county-level Xiaowei Mansion and the prefecture-level Duwei Mansion have been eliminated.
, we need to have our own name.”
When Liu Wenqian saw Zhao Xunwang looking at him and others, he said: "Renovating the official system can be carried out together with the establishment of a civil service system at the government level. It is nothing more than the governor, but we need to add a temporary deputy in front of the appointment, or
The assassination is a historical event. As for whether the imperial court approves it in the future, it is not important to us. Even if they appoint
There is a new governor, but the real power is still in our hands. As for your Huolin Army, it does need a formal title. In fact, I suggest you submit it to Youzhou Yamen. After all, we got back their lost territory from the Mohe Army.
, it won’t work without a reward. As for what the situation is, my subordinates dare not say more.”
"According to my subordinates, your Excellency has launched a large-scale purge policy in Yanzhou Prefecture, but this is not the case in Yingzhou Prefecture. It seems that your Excellency has also seen that such drastic measures are not advisable. The four northern prefectures encountered the Mohe Army
Invasion, big forces and wealthy landowners have already moved south, leaving behind
Some cats and dogs. Such a drastic policy here is acceptable, but when it comes to the south..." At this point, Liu Wenqian stopped continuing, because the south is not within the sphere of influence of the Huolin Army, and has not been intruded by the Mohe Army.
, if the Huolin Army goes south, it will be a real rebellion.
Zhang Yuanjing said: "I agree with the large-scale mobilization of troops to participate in the war. This will put overwhelming pressure on our weak logistics. There are several forces in Weizhou Prefecture and Shunzhou Prefecture that counterattack the Mohe Army. We can definitely use them to contain them.
For your own use. When necessary, lead a small army, or develop local forces to counterattack Mohe
Army, occupy or recover the place. Now that the pressure from the Beihai tribes in the north has been removed, the Yingzhou capital in the south is basically ours. We can vigorously restore local production and use our strength to eliminate these Mohe armies that have no retreat.
The most important thing is to ensure that these two palaces fall into our hands, which is also our capital to put pressure on the court."
"Sir, now that a lot of war horses have been captured, shouldn't it be time to increase the number of cavalry in the infantry? Although there are many infantry, they are basically of no use. Most of the battles are completed by the brothers of the cavalry battalion. In this way
It also made the infantry soldiers extremely envious of the cavalry, so much so that during the operation a few days ago, they asked the infantry soldiers to temporarily transfer the cavalry battalion, but they came in droves!" Qin You said with a bitter smile.
"I have already made a note of this issue. When I return to Yanzhou City, I will make adjustments to the various ministries and let the cavalry and infantry ministries coordinate."
Immediately afterwards, everyone discussed various issues and expressed their opinions. Zhao Xun analyzed these opinions, wrote them down one by one, and implemented changes when he returned to Yanzhou City.
