Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 208 Mongolian Cavalry Brigade

"Some refugees claimed that before our army formed a siege, a group of cavalry went north. There were about several hundred people, and they did not attract much attention." People from the intelligence department reported to Chu Yunhui.

"It seems that Haoge and Fan Wencheng are going to escape to Mobei and leave the last seeds." After Chu Yun knew their whereabouts, he had a bottom line in his mind.Even if there are still remnants of Hou Jin, by the time they come back, the technology of the Liao Army may have reached the second industrial revolution, and there is nothing to fear.

Hetuala's palace was burned by flames, and it took a long time to finish the fire, and it was necessary for Chu Yun to send people to put out the fire.

Chu Yun walked more than half a circle around the palace, feeling a little regretful.This is a rare historical relic, and it can become a tourist attraction in the future. It is a pity, a pity that it was set on fire by Huang Taiji.Chu Yun couldn't help shaking his head.

Also near the palace are several leaders of the Mongolian Horqin tribe who went east to Hetuala.Among them, the elderly Manggus burst into tears facing the scorched earth.According to Ouchi's bodyguard who was captured alive, his daughter Zhezhe died with Huang Taiji and burned herself in the sea of ​​flames.Relatives such as Zaisang and Wu Keshan were also weeping silently.

: "Manggus, people cannot be resurrected after death, so let's be sad." Chu Yun felt a little indebted to Manggus when he saw the white-haired man giving away the black-haired man.

Manggus was in his sixties, and he personally led his troops to stop the various ministries of Chahar, and then went south to assist the Fuliao Army to defeat the Eight Banners. It can be said that it was another timely rain for Chu Yun after Liu Xingzuo.

"The old man is old, and he also speaks bluntly. At the beginning, we were the ones who were powerful and defeated our Mongolian tribes many times. In order to protect the interests of our Horqin tribe, we married our little girl to Huang Taiji. The one who killed my little girl is ours after all. It's all selfish." Mangus wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Your Horqin tribe has made great contributions this time. I will set up a stone monument for your daughter and pass it down for generations. At the same time, in order to reward your sincerity, the Liao Army will set up two dragoon brigades, and will select the best fighters from the Horqin tribe. The formation of warriors, of course, we will send military staff and non-commissioned officers to help you form a more advanced cavalry unit. Members of the Dragoon Brigade will receive their salaries and will no longer serve as soldiers and civilians," Chu Yun said.

"Dragoon brigade? In other words, our cavalry unit will also have muskets?" Another important leader of the Horqin tribe, Oba, heard that Chu Yun planned to form a cavalry brigade, and he couldn't help being a little excited.

In the view of the Horqin tribe, why did the Fuliao army win the battle with Houjin? Isn't it because of firearms?
"Not just muskets, but also light artillery in the future. In addition, the two cavalry brigades have to receive more rigorous training, not only to master riding skills, but also marksmanship, so as to become a professional army, not the loose form now." Chu Yun said.

"Fire guns and artillery..." Some of Horqin's high-level officials looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling that this wave was not a loss.

"Not only will we build two professional cavalry brigades, but we will also send officials from the Agriculture Bureau to Liaohetao to build a large pasture to help you increase the production of cattle and sheep. At that time, cattle and sheep will be exchanged for wheat and other rice crops, so that everyone can get what they want. There is no need to worry about the lack of food." Chu Yun said again.

"If this is the case, it really solves our problem for hundreds of years." Mang Gusi said with emotion, "After Daming stopped trading with us, we would worry about the food problem every winter, otherwise we would not take refuge in the future. gold."

"My lord, about our treatment?" Auba asked hesitantly.

"Everyone, please rest assured that according to the treaty signed before, you will be the main officers of the Dragoon Brigade, and each family will have a share in the share of the ranch. However, you may need to hand over the power to manage the tribe, accept our military department and send officials direct management." Chu Yun said, "You have also seen that if you become the Jurchen's current fate, let alone hold an important position in the army, it will be difficult to save your life."

"We will do it." Several Horqin tribes said one after another when they saw the fate of Hou Jin, who had been powerful for a while, and were terrified.

After Hetuala was captured, all the Jurchen aristocrats in Jianzhou had their homes ransacked, and the ministers who took refuge in Houjin were also sent to search their mansions by Chu Yun, and they were all sent to prison, awaiting trial.

As for the confiscated silver taels, of course, part of it was used to make up for the tens of 10 taels of military expenses consumed by gold after the Chu Yun crusade, and the rest was included in the national treasury and invested in the post-war construction of Jianzhou Guard.This is still the situation where Chu Yun resolves the battle as quickly as possible. If it takes longer, the finances will collapse sooner or later.It's a pity that Hou Jin's influence is not rich enough, so Chu Yun is not very satisfied with this harvest.The real rich are still the big landlords and big businessmen in the pass.

There were only sporadic troops left in Jianzhou Guard who were struggling needlessly, but Chu Yun dispatched troops to suppress them and completely pacify everywhere.The Jurchen landowners of Jianzhouwei were arrested by Chu Yun, their fields were confiscated, and all of them were handed over to the Land Management Office of the Agricultural Bureau for registration and development of large farms.

After the elimination of Houjin, the Fuliao Army captured 3 to [-] prisoners alone, which is equivalent to an increase of [-] to [-] unpaid labor. Most of these people were dispatched by Chu Yun to the Anshan mining field for mining.Some people were assigned by Chu Yun to the government-run farms to farm.

With the complete annihilation of the Eight Banners troops, the Mongolian cavalry also returned to Liaohetao. As for the slave rebels, they were paid travel expenses by Chu Yun and then dismissed.Most of the Ming army prisoners of war chose to return to the pass, and some other Mongols, Donghai Jurchen, Haixi Jurchen and other tribes also returned to their own tribes.Some local soldiers chose to join the Liao Army to make up for the losses of various departments in the Battle of Suzihe.

However, after the Jianzhou Jurchen, the most powerful tribal alliance in Eastern Liaodong, collapsed, many tribes originally subdued by the Jianzhou Jurchen became independent one after another. .In order to regain these tribes, Chu Yun had to make some arrangements.

"Which tribe are you brothers from the East China Sea Jurchens?" Chu Yun recruited several two-meter-tall East China Sea Jurchens from Wang Dalang's rebel army.

"According to what Daming said, we are members of the Kuwu tribe. We lived on an island in the east. When we went ashore to hunt, we were captured by the Jianzhou Jurchen from the Northern Expedition and became captives." Several Donghai Jurchen said.

"Kuwu tribe, the island to the east?" Chu Yun thought about it, and they all went to the north of Heilongjiang, to East Siberia. As for the location, it was probably Sakhalin Island.Now Siberia is still blank.
