"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 316
? As night fell, inside and outside the Governor's Mansion, the soldiers of the Qinghe Army in strong and sharp clothes had a post every three steps and a sentry post every five steps, and were heavily guarded.
After the Qinghe Army captured the capital of Luyang Province, Chen Zi'ang moved his Second Army Corps headquarters to the Governor's Mansion in the city.
At this moment, the vast Governor's Mansion is full of soldiers and officers of the Qinghe Army in a hurry. They walk like the wind, and they are shrewd and capable.
Chen Zi'ang and the others captured such a provincial capital, and they wanted to appease the people, maintain law and order, check the treasury, wipe out remnants of the enemy, military propaganda, recruitment and a series of follow-up things.
Although the sky has darkened now, the streets are busy and full of voices.
Groups of Qinghe army patrol soldiers with weapons patrolled around to prevent anyone from fishing in troubled waters.
After the order in the city was restored, the panic-stricken people were not as afraid of the Qinghe Army as before.
In the afternoon, Chen Ziang and the others gathered some people who were famous in the city but did not do many evil things.
These people have a good reputation among the residents in the city. When they were called by Chen Ziang and the others, they were terribly frightened, thinking that their lives were in danger.
But to their surprise, Chen Ziang and the others seemed polite even though they were soldiers.
The purpose of Chen Zi'ang calling these people is very simple, that is to let them find someone to help deal with the corpses in the city.
?Because the private soldiers of the rich and powerful families in the city, the defenders of the dynasty and the Qinghe army broke out in the streets and alleys of the city, so that many corpses piled up in the city.
If these corpses are not disposed of and buried as soon as possible, it is likely to cause plague, etc., which is not what Chen Ziang wants to see.
The Qinghe army needed to rest after repeated battles, so Chen Ziang was going to hand over the task of cleaning the battlefield to the people in the city.
Chen Ziang didn't ask the people in the city to help in vain, and promised that everyone who participated in cleaning the battlefield would receive three buckets of food extra.
Although the living conditions of the people living in the city are better than those outside the city, they are not much better.
When these famous people spread the words of Chen Ziang, the common people came out one after another to help clean up the battlefield.
When night fell, most of the corpses piled up on the streets in the city had been transported to the big pits outside the city for burial.
Without the need for Chen Ziang and the others to mobilize, the common people carried buckets one after another and began to wash the blood stains on the streets in front of their respective gates, which made the bloody smell in the city dissipate a lot.
The rapid restoration of order in the city was mainly due to the strict military discipline of the Qinghe Army and the efficient operation of the Legion Department.
After all, Chen Zi'ang and his Qinghe Army Second Corps have only been established for a short time, and there are not so many redundant personnel. Everyone is full of enthusiasm.
When the common people were helping to bury the corpses and wash the streets with clean water, the living room of the Governor's Mansion in the city was also brightly lit.
On both sides of the long table that was put together, all the officers above the banner battalion commander and above with bloodstained battle robes were lined up.
The Second Army of the Qinghe Army can now be said to be strong and strong, with two infantry flag regiments and a cavalry flag regiment.
The old brothers who were familiar with at the beginning were all promoted to senior officers by virtue of their military exploits. In addition to these familiar faces, there are also some unfamiliar faces.
These new faces are mainly some regiments of the Twelfth Banner Regiment and the Cavalry Ninth Banner Regiment.
As the regiment commander, Chen Ziang first affirmed the heroic fighting of each combat unit for the daytime battle.
Especially for those brave individuals and teams who fought bravely, they were also praised in public.
Chen Ziang and the others have always been rewarded for their meritorious deeds and punished for their mistakes. They captured a capital in just one day. Although it was due to luck, he also knew that it was the result of the brothers' hard work.
Therefore, Chen Ziang was not stingy, and asked the heads of the banners to draw up a list after they went down, and he wanted to praise the publicity.
After all, if an army wants to win a battle, it must maintain strong morale, and it is a good way to promote and commend some heroes.
While Chen Ziang praised the various troops, he also pointed out the various problems they exposed during the battle.
Many happy officers calmed down from their excitement as if pouring a basin of cold water on their heads, expressing that they would seriously sum up experience and lessons.
"In this battle, our army captured the provincial capital, wiped out more than 15,000 enemies, and captured 6,000 people.The rest of them can be said to have won a complete victory. "
"I hope that all troops will continue to carry forward the heroic and tenacious fighting spirit in the next battle, and destroy more enemies!"
Chen Zi'ang's summary meeting of their victory lasted just over an hour before the meeting ended, and Chen Zi'ang asked them to relax.
After all, a fierce battle has just been fought, and many people have walked through the gate of hell, so they need a good rest and adjustment.
After the victory summary meeting was over, Chen Ziang alone left Lei Ming, the deputy head of the Ninth Banner Cavalry Regiment.
"Brother Lei, you fought very well in this battle, and you are worthy of the world-famous Black Cavalry."
Seeing Lei Ming who was sitting awkwardly, Chen Ziang also smiled and poured him a glass of water to ease the atmosphere.
"The general praised you, this is what brothers should do." Lei Ming replied cautiously.
"You don't have to be so restrained. I was busy with the war before, and I didn't have time to chat with you alone. Please don't take offense."
"The last general dare not."
"Where is Brother Ray from?"
"Reporting to General, I am from Wuyuan Province."
"Wuyuan Province is rich in horses and cavalry, it is a good place." Chen Ziang said with a smile.
"Oh, that was before, and now many places in Wuyuan Province are empty, and there are no people living in it." Lei Ming sighed.
"Why is this?" Chen Ziang asked.
"Wolf riders from the north go south every year. The imperial army only dared to hide in the fortresses and did not dare to fight. Countless people were killed and plundered, and the rest could not escape. The northern part of Wuyuan Province is now deserted."
"Except for the Wuyuan provinces, the situation in the northern provinces is similar. Although many places still belong to the imperial court in name, they are dominated by wolves."
When Lei Ming talked about the situation in his hometown, he clenched his fists tightly and his face was full of resentment.
Because of the decay of the imperial court, those meritorious troops have also become vulnerable in the hundreds of years of prosperity.
Most of the northern provinces and Wuyuan provinces are grassland areas with lush water and grass, and they are the main source of horses and cavalry for the imperial court.
However, with the incompetence of the imperial court, the wolf riders in the north became more and more unscrupulous, constantly encroaching on the northern border, and making the two provinces a mess.
Facing such a situation, Lei Ming was angry and helpless when he saw his hometown turned into that, because in the face of a weak imperial court, a single person could not change this situation.
"The imperial court is weak and incompetent. It is unbearable for the enemy cavalry to deceive our people and occupy our land. In the future, our Qinghe army will definitely march north to drive out the enemy and return peace to our people!"
Chen Ziang also understood Lei Ming's mood very well, because he had empathized with this kind of thing before, so he also waved his fists, his eyes full of anger.
Lei Ming didn't expect Chen Ziang to have such a grand ambition. Apart from being moved, he also hoped to go back to his hometown as soon as possible.
"General, will we really march north one day?" Lei Ming asked excitedly.
"Brother Lei, don't worry, Wuyuan Province and Northern Province are our country's land, but my Qinghe Army will never sit idly by! When we become stronger, we will definitely send our troops northward and take back our land!"
After hearing Chen Ziang's words, Lei Ming immediately knelt down and saluted Chen Ziang.
"General, I, Lei Ming, am willing to charge into battle for you, even if I die!" Lei Ming said loudly.
"Brother Lei, please get up quickly."
Chen Ziang didn't expect that Lei Ming would immediately express his loyalty after he had just mentioned his ambition, which surprised him.
In fact, Chen Ziang didn't know what Lei Ming wanted in his heart. Although their black cavalry army was considered to be a powerful force in the imperial court.
However, they have been suppressing the insurgents everywhere, watching their hometown being poisoned but powerless, they feel very painful and helpless.
However, after Chen Ziang's speech, Lei Ming saw hope, so excited, he was willing to follow Chen Ziang to charge into the battle, hoping that one day he would fight back to his hometown and vent his anger.
