From Soldier To Emperor

Chapter 267: Mobilize troops to quell the rebellion

The reason why the Central Cabinet of the Ming Court did not supplement the local garrison was mainly because many officers in the local garrison were the children of local gentry. Under the leadership of Qi Jiguang, the central cabinet was in control of the overall situation while steadily consuming the local garrison. Strength.

After seeing the fighting power of the Semu insurgents, Ming Ting was confident about the outcome of the suppression of the rebellion, and just used this great uprising to train troops and clear the local garrison group.

Under unified deployment, the local garrisons gradually lost their regionality and were merged one by one. The repression and consumption of the front lines caused the garrisons of different regions to be continuously integrated.

The cabinet produced by the system is worthy of a great **** level. This turmoil has not only failed to shake the ruling foundation of the central court, but has used its strength to cleanse the local power faction!

In Richard's future plans, there is no need for the gentry class. Richard needs more land to build his feudal army.

For Richard, landlords can exist, but they must be samurai landlords, not gentry landlords.

After all, gentry and landlords can't fight...

Although it takes a long time, after a few generations, samurai landlords will also become gentry landlords who can only read books, but in the early days of the founding of the country, they can form more combat power!

Before the advent of the Industrial Revolution, the most powerful combat force was undoubtedly the early samurai feudal system.

Whether it is the European medieval knights in the history of the earth, or the military system in East Asia, they all belong to the feudal warrior system, which is to obtain the allegiance of a group of warriors by paying for the land to fight the world.

It's just that this system was very strong during the war and the early days of the founding of the nation, but it will become corrupt once the peace is long.

The land inherited by the soldiers at the bottom will be annexed in various ways, and the nobles at the top can use their power to become the worms of the country by annexing the land, and live a happy life lying down and collecting rent.

The gentry class left over from the Tang Dynasty belonged to the moths raised in the peaceful era. Their ancestors developed the land of the Tang Dynasty through military merits, and developed and grown little by little.

Of course, it was just a fat sheep to Richard.

However, Richard could not eliminate all the gentry classes in order to maintain a stable rule. Although he was an emperor, he could not but abolish a class without reason...

What does that make others think?

Even military warriors who worked for Richard would worry that Richard would run out of their words and kill them all...

Therefore, it is best for the toothless gentry class to be eradicated by others. The Ming army is fighting the rebellion as a messenger of justice, and everything will become perfect.

In order to prevent the resurrection of the local gentry class, the local garrison that has been infiltrated by them also needs to be weakened and finally merged into the newly formed army!

Obviously, the newly formed army will eliminate the color of localism!

Today's Recruitment Corps is a kind of trial and experience.

In addition, after the Semu National People's Congress uprising, the Central Cabinet also intends to completely solve this problem.

The first way is to massacre in the name of countering the rebellion, and the second way is to recruit all the fairly honest Semu as cannon fodder, and then raise the social status of these Semu soldiers' families!

After all, those members of the auxiliary army’s family members who stood by the court in a critical moment have all seen them. As long as they become those with vested interests, the Semu people are willing to join the Chinese nationality!

Of course, the integration of the Turfans is also under planning, but the Turfans are a minority in the Western Regions and are not taken seriously.

From the fall of the first big city, Khotan, at the end of the 7th year of Ming Dynasty, to the full-scale outbreak of the Semu Uprising in January 8th year of Ming Dynasty, the central court reported the incident to Richard in the northwest.

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

The gentry class in the entire Western Regions has been hit hard!

Even though hundreds of thousands of Semu serfs had been slaughtered, the uprising had not been completely suppressed.

It is for this reason that the Central Cabinet will send someone to inform Richard that as long as Richard is transferred back to a main force, he can completely suppress the seemingly large-scale uprising in the Western Regions.

After receiving the report, Richard did not intend to blame the cabinet. The cabinet has presented all the causes and consequences of the uprising to Richard, which also illustrates the benefits that the central court can obtain in this uprising.

Therefore, Richard quickly cancelled the original plan to retire the officers and soldiers of the field army, and transferred the auxiliary army and two field army groups to the northern defense line instead of the western army, relying on the original city fortress to resist the green-skinned orc army going south.

He took the system soldiers and the Western Region Army back to aid the Western Regions.

However, most of Jin Yiwei's power was retained. On the one hand, he assisted Genevieve who remained to continue to expand Jin Yiwei's power and incorporate scattered warriors.

On the other hand, it cooperates with Genevieve's Undead Army to supervise the auxiliary army and the two field army groups of the northern defense ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ to prevent them from escaping privately or thinking about it.

As for the newly trained recruits in the northwestern region, they formed regular corps on the spot to serve as the security garrison.

The military reform that was halfway through was forced to stop, and the Ming army, which was already abundant, once again tightened its clockwork.

Naturally, plans for external expansion have also been postponed.

However, this time Richard was not without gain. Thanks to the Semu uprising in the Western Regions, the central court's national mobilization was very thorough. The Han people did not want to be the lambs slaughtered by the Semu people, and the local gentry children also lost their privileges under the mobilization mechanism. , Can only be a small soldier.

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

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

In Richard's future plans, there will no longer be a field army and a strong local garrison.

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 according to combat effectiveness and main responsibilities.

The C-level corps is a replica of the local garrison. It just doesn’t have a fixed station, where it needs to be moved. At the same time, it is also a veritable recruit corps.

The First Class Legion is naturally the veteran unit with the best equipment and the strongest combat effectiveness, followed by the Second Class Legion.

The three major armies have a clear hierarchy in terms of the welfare benefits and powers of officers and soldiers, forming a healthy competition system.

Among them, the regiments of system origin are guards in nature, and their status is higher than that of the first-class regiments!

In February of Ming Dynasty, Richard returned to the Western Regions with the Army of the Western Regions and began to suppress the Semu uprising on a large scale. Not surprisingly, the Great Uprising in the Western Regions, which had been in trouble for nearly three months, came to an end.
