Chapter 479: Training.... test
Outside the Tartar tribes, the only thousands of archers who could carry out long-range strikes against the garrison, were disrupted by the garrison with round after round of buckshot. An unprecedented aura of despair quickly spread within the Tartar tribe.
The officers and men of the garrison division who were commanding their subordinates to shoot buckshot at the Tartar archers did not miss this great opportunity to enter the Tartar tribe.
So a murderous shout, as if it had been discussed, roared out of these people's mouths at the same time.
"Soldiers, brothers...... The Tartars have collapsed...... They are still waiting for the musket in their hands to be bayoneted immediately, rush into the Tartar tribe, kill the Tartars who dare to resist, and occupy their tribe......"
Amid the seductive roar of the officers, more than 10,000 soldiers of the garrison division who were still full of panic before the war, at this moment, like more than 10,000 hungry wolves smelling blood, holding muskets with good bayonets, roared and rushed towards the Tartar tribe that was still in a state of confusion, and began their transformation from recruits to veterans......
On the battlefield of close-range combat, the length of the weapon, in a large and certain range, determines the life and death of the enemy and our soldiers? Determines whether or not you can kill the other person before they kill themselves.
Because everyone in the Tartars is good at riding and shooting, the standard equipment of the Tartars, as long as there is no accident, is a saber no more than three feet long.
But. The muskets of the garrison divisions were almost five feet long. If you add a bayonet that is one and a half feet long, it is more than six feet long.
Therefore, when more than 10,000 soldiers of the two garrison divisions of the Tiger and Leopard Army rushed into the Tartar tribe, in a chaotic battlefield, the scimitar held by the Tartar had not yet touched the body of the soldiers of the garrison division. The muskets of the garrison division were clenched tightly in their hands. Already the bayonet stuck on the barrel. Pierced into the opponent's body......
With a weapon that is almost three feet longer than the Tartar. In addition, the opponents are all old and weak who don't have much strength. In just one round of fighting, two or three thousand Tartars fell on their doorstep with desperate and unwilling eyes. As for the soldiers of the garrison who rushed into the Tartar tribe, they lost hundreds of people after a full battle.
The victory of the first round of collisions, on the bloody battlefield, was like a stimulant, making the already confident soldiers of the garrison more confident.
Thereupon. These have changed in nature, and they are no longer afraid of the Tartars, and they are no longer afraid of the soldiers who fight. Sharply draw the bayonet that is stuck in the enemy's body. Don't stop anything, just like a hungry wolf, pounce on the next target on the battlefield.
Soon, this kind of fighting on the battlefield, as the soldiers of the garrison division became more and more courageous, evolved step by step into a one-sided massacre against the old and weak Tartars.
If it weren't for Sun Chengzong's timely order to withdraw from the Tartar tribe. The more than 20,000 old and weak women who remained in the Tartar tribe were almost completely killed by this group of soldiers who were almost crazy.
However, even if Sun Chengzong issued a general order to withdraw from the tribe in time. The inside of the Tartar tribe, which had been covered with a thick layer of corpses and shrouded in a strong smell of blood. There are less than 3,000 Tartar women and children who can still stand.
However, what made Sun Chengzong feel fortunate was that perhaps it was the soldiers' deliberate actions, and the remaining 3,000 Tartars on the battlefield were basically young women.
In addition, there are more than 10,000 Han slaves in the tribe, as long as they can be successfully sent back to Liaodong, they can form a family of three or four thousand, and make a county town in Liaodong completely prosperous.
After counting all the captives and Han slaves, Sun Chengzong immediately shifted his gaze to the garrison soldiers around him.
At this moment, Sun Chengzong could clearly feel that a few hours ago, he was still loose and boastful, and he couldn't see the slightest murderous army. Now, it actually exudes a very strong murderous aura outward?
Faced with this result, Sun Chengzong, who had the idea of training from the beginning, directly showed a satisfied smile from the bottom of his heart on his face full of sternness.
Of course, this smile lasted only a cup of tea before it was replaced by Yan Sรน again.
Sun Chengzong, who has an in-depth understanding of the Haw Par Army, knows that he wants to make these soldiers around him become a qualified Haw Par Army soldiers. In addition to having combat effectiveness and not being afraid of death. There is also a very important factor, and that is to follow the rules, unconditionally......
Therefore, the next test for Sun Chengzong is to teach everyone to abide by the rules......
When the two division commanders and the six regiment commanders all converged to Sun Chengzong's side.
Sun Chengzong, who had a stern face, said directly: "We have successfully occupied the Tartar tribe. Next, there is only one task left, cleaning up the battlefield......"
"General Ben ordered: Your six regiment commanders, each of whom will draw a company of troops from each battalion, and you will personally command them, enter the Tartar tribe to clean up the battlefield......"
Ben will be here, one last reminder...... Before entering the Tartar tribe, repeat the military order to confiscate the captured goods to the soldiers again...... During the entire process of cleaning up the battlefield, the guard companies of the two garrison divisions and the guard company of the general will supervise everyone on the battlefield...... If found, they will be punished in strict accordance with the Haw Par Army's military regulations, and there will be no mercy......"
"Yes, Chief of Staff...... "The purpose of Chief of Staff Sun Chengzong is well known to several regiment commanders.
Therefore, as soon as Sun Chengzong finished speaking, several regiment leaders gave a very positive answer.
Soon, the six mixed battalions, under the personal command of the six regiment commanders, rummaged through the boxes and confiscated all kinds of gold and silver finances in the Tartar tribe.
I have to say that being close to Daming has the advantage of being close to Daming.
With the strong mobility of the cavalry, the cavalry essence of this tribe is only a few thousand. However, it was these thousands of cavalry who had to go deep into Liaodong several times a year to plunder the population and plunder the finances......
Therefore, although this tribe is not large, it is far beyond the imagination of Sun Chengzong and others in terms of its geographical location superior to other tribes.
When the soldiers of the garrison division of a squad rushed into an ordinary tent, the first thing that caught everyone's eye was a few big boxes......
When I opened the box, the first thing I saw was all kinds of Han clothes that Tatar had seized from Liaodong. When everyone lifted the clothes, the bottom of the box was covered with a thick layer of silver.
When everyone turned over several other boxes with shocked faces, without exception, the same situation occurred.
The only difference is that the bottom of three of the chests is covered with a thick layer of silver, one box is covered with a layer of gold, and the bottom of the last box is covered with a layer of jewelry looted from the hands of the Han Chinese......
These ordinary soldiers from the lowest level of the Ming Dynasty, where have they seen so much gold and silver, and they are still close to everyone.
So, when piles of gold and silver, pieces of expensive jewelry...... After putting it in front of everyone. Except for those officers from the 1st Infantry Division of the Haw Par Army, all the ordinary officers and soldiers had a greedy expression on their faces.
At this time, the squad leader, who saw the change in everyone's feelings, hurriedly reminded...... "Brothers, don't ruin your future because of a momentary greed...... As long as we hand over all this gold and silver, twenty percent of it will be ours sooner or later...... Therefore, I hope you can control your hands, the military regulations of my Haw Par Army are very strict......"
Under the squad leader's warning, the greedy expressions on the faces of most of the soldiers were then covered by a trace of identification.
Of course, there are also some soldiers who are lucky with a fluke mentality, and there is still a trace of unknown greed on their faces. It's just that they hide this trace of greedy expression in the bottom of their hearts that they don't know.
After seeing all the changing faces of his subordinates, the squad leader with a meaningful face directly opened his mouth and ordered: "Okay, don't be stunned here, immediately vacate a box, pack all these gold and silver jewelry, and transport them to the location designated by the chief of staff."
After the general order was issued, the squad leader's eyes did not leave the more than ten soldiers under his command
Under the watchful eyes of the squad leader, a soldier in the squad took advantage of the gold and silver packing space to secretly put a few pieces of gold and a few jewelry into his sleeve, which was very clearly reflected in the squad leader's field of vision.
Of course, the squad leader, who had received the order in advance, did not make a statement. After writing down the soldier's name, as if nothing had happened, he directly commanded his soldiers to carry the chest full of gold and silver out of the tent.
After the gold and silver jewelry in the tent was scavenged, everyone turned their attention to the financial objects.
As a hunter-gatherer people who came out of the mountains, even after they established the Houjin Kingdom, they walked into the plains step by step and began to settle in the plains.
However, the traditional hunting habits have not changed because of this.
Therefore, in addition to gold and silver jewelry, the most in the Tartar tent is a variety of animal skins and mountain ginseng, which are priceless in the Central Plains
Soon, these animal skins and mountain ginseng were filled with two full boxes and sent to the open space outside the tribe.
Just one ordinary Tartar's tent looted a whole box of gold and silver, and two boxes of various animal skins and wild ginseng worth the same price as gold. Not to mention the tents of those chiefs and patriarchs within the tribe.
Just half an hour later, the open space in front of Sun Chengzong was filled with various boxes.
What's more, all kinds of boxes are still being carried out of the tribe by the soldiers.
Of course, along with these boxes, there were also herds of cattle and sheep, and herds of war horses that could join the army at any time to fight.
Just when the smile on Sun Chengzong's face was getting thicker and thicker, the commander of the First Garrison Division suddenly walked over with a solemn face.
Seeing this, Sun Chengzong immediately thought of something, and the face that was still full of smiles just now was replaced by solemnity in an instant. (To be continued......)
