This time Yu Xiaotianxia ordered the dismissal of 20,000 soldiers and horses under the command of Zuo Liangyu, Zuo Liangyu heard the news and immediately led his troops to rebel, led the troops to storm Xiangyang, trying to capture Xiangyang and then control the surrounding prefectures and counties, in order to compete with the imperial court, in just ten days, he captured Nanzhang and other places, forcibly coerced the people to join the rebels, and expanded the force to the scale of forty or fifty thousand people in a short time.

Zuo Liangyu's idea is very simple, that is, to support the army and self-respect, so as to be unable to resist the imperial court, that is, Yu Xiaotian, trying to delay, so that Yu Xiaotian feels that his bone is not easy to gnaw, and finally recruit him, then he can continue to support the army and self-respect, and be a blessing!

But Yu Xiaotian could not be unprepared for Zuo Liangyu, and had already stationed part of the Yu family army in Xiangyang City in advance, Zuo Liangyu led the troops to attack Xiangyang City, these Yu family troops defended according to the danger, and successively repelled the attack of Zuo Liangyu's rebels, and then Sun Chuanting was ordered to lead the troops to suppress it, supplemented by Meng Fei and other generals, quickly blocked the momentum of Zuo Liangyu's expansion to the periphery, and divided the troops into several ways, blocked Zuo Liangyu's troops in Xiangyang Mansion, and defeated it several times in a row.

Zuo Liangyu was finally blocked in the area of Nanzhang County, and more than 10,000 troops of Yu's family army "surrounded" more than 30,000 troops under Zuo Liangyu's department and besieged them in Nanzhang County.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zuo Liangyu led his troops to try to break through and flee into Sichuan, but Meng Fei could not give him such an opportunity and led his army to launch a final attack on him.

The rebels under Zuo Liangyu are basically temporarily coerced people, and the quality of their equipment is extremely poor.

As a result, as soon as the two sides engaged, the rebels under Zuo Liangyu's command were immediately defeated, and finally Zuo Liangyu was also captured alive by Meng Feisheng, and then his family was sent to Xiangyang City in a prisoner car for disposal.

Sun Chuanting executed Zuo Liangyu Lingchi in accordance with Yu Xiaotian's instructions, and his family was beheaded all over the house, including those generals who followed Zuo Liangyu, and they were also beheaded all over the house, killing people and completely extinguishing Zuo Liangyu's rebellion.

The extermination of Zuo Liangyu's subordinates also greatly deterred the other local generals, who originally planned to follow the rebellion, and also hoped that they could force the imperial court to make concessions to them and re-recruit them, so that they could retain their forces.

But when I heard that Zuo Liangyu had been exterminated in less than two months from the beginning of the army, and Zuo Liangyu's entire family, including his generals, had been beheaded one by one, and suffered a catastrophe, some of the originally restless guys among these generals suddenly dispelled the idea of raising troops to make a rebellion.

Now the court is not in power is not the previous Chongzhen Emperor, now Yu Xiaotian, the great evil god is in power, this guy is not to mention, his heart is hundreds of times blacker than Chongzhen, not to mention that he now has nearly 200,000 elite and unrivaled Yu family army in his hands, although there are not too many garrisons in various places, and it does not seem to be superior in terms of troops, but no one dares to underestimate these Yu family troops, their equipment is too good, and the muskets in their hands are too sharp, and they are often good at winning more with less, which is extremely difficult to deal with.

Zuo Liangyu claimed to be a 100,000-strong army to rebel, but Yu Xiaotian only sent more than 10,000 Yu family troops to Sun Chuanting, and Zuo Liangyu was easily destroyed.

Yu Xiaotian didn't embarrass these generals too much, it turned out that their family property was reserved for them, and everyone gave a lot of severance pay, so that they could buy land, at least there was no problem with being a small rich man, and the generals in some places also granted them three years of exemption from the original field, which was a special preferential treatment.

But even so, these local generals were very reluctant, because when Yu Xiaotian laid off the local army, he took back the original military tuntian and distributed it to those dismissed soldiers to cultivate.

It turns out that the tuntian of these guards is basically controlled by these generals for generations, and those soldiers are basically their serfs, and they can only do things for them.

Now that these soldiers have divided the tuntian they control, they have suddenly lost the soil they rely on to fill their pockets, how can they not be in pain.

However, under the strong military pressure of the family army, it is not possible to agree to it, and the rebellion is directly sent to death by the whole family, whether they are happy or not, they can only pinch their noses and admit it.

After the abolition of the official army in these places, Yu Jiajun became the real force of the Ming Dynasty, and became the only military subject, Yu Xiaotian changed the military household system before the Ming Dynasty, and changed the army to a conscription system, greatly increasing the income and status of the generals, so that the generals could live a more decent life, although the army continued to be required not to interfere in local government affairs, but at the same time, local officials were not allowed to control these armies.

These new officers and soldiers are the country's troops, and they only obey the dispatch of the military department, and no longer obey the orders of local officials, but when necessary, the military department can hand over some local garrisons to local officials for temporary moderation and use, and the social status of military personnel as a whole has been greatly raised.

Although the civil officials are a little unhappy at this point, they feel that it is really insulting for these Qiu Ba to be on an equal footing with them in the future, but Yu Xiaotian is now a Ming prisoner, and he is a military general, and they don't dare to expect to do whatever they want on the head of the Yu family army in the future.

Moreover, Yu Xiaotian said something in the court: "If the soldiers of a country do not even have the minimum status, and they cannot even obtain the minimum respect, then who can expect these soldiers to serve the country, and who can expect the country to let the soldiers take the lead when they are threatened?"

Therefore, soldiers are the sword and shield of the country, they must have dignity, then the country can have dignity! ……”

After hearing this, the soldiers and generals of the Yu family army were all very moved, and even some of the soldiers of the former Ming Dynasty army felt that this sound was really pleasing to the ear, especially those ordinary soldiers, who secretly thought in their hearts, if they had met Yu Jianguo earlier, then where would their lives be like cattle and horses like before!

After Yu Xiaotian's words spread all over the country, when Yu Jiajun recruited again, many young people in the countryside began to sign up enthusiastically.

Being a soldier now is much better than before, first of all, they don't have to worry about becoming a military household for generations after joining the military, in fact, they are not much different from untouchables.

And now the treatment of being a soldier is also quite good, you can get a full two taels of silver a month, and no one dares to deduct their military salary, and at the same time, you can eat three meals a day as a soldier, and you are also issued two sets of military uniforms every year, which can be said to be full of food and warm clothing, and can also feed your family.

The most important thing is that they no longer have to be despised everywhere like before, calling them military masters to their faces, and poking their backbones and scolding their mothers behind their backs, at least now they are wearing the new military uniforms issued to them, and they dare to raise their heads to be people, which is more important than anything else.

Therefore, although Yu Jiajun is now nominally a Ming official army, those who are soldiers in private still agree that they are a member of Yu Jiajun, and this qiē was given to them by Yu Xiaotian, so they were born as people of Yu Jiajun, and they died as ghosts of Yu Jiajun, and they are almost loyal to Yu Xiaotian, and they have no second thoughts at all.

Although the number of officers and troops in the Ming Dynasty has decreased a lot compared with the past, the combat effectiveness is more than several times and eight times stronger than before.

As for their equipment, it is not a problem, with Yu Xiaotian taking power, the original Seawolf's military factory also began to obtain a large number of orders, and began to set up new factories in Fujian, Guangdong, Beizhili, Shandong and other places to produce all kinds of new weapons for the new army.

All kinds of artillery and rifles used by the army now have mature production technology and technology, and have also trained a lot of skilled workers, plus the machinery factories in Tamsui and Quanzhou, can now produce quite good hydraulic machinery.

These new hydraulic machinery has been put into use continuously, and the original old factory has been continuously expanded, so that now Tamsui and Quanzhou have formed two large machinery factories, and the production of various special machinery has been continuously transported to the new military factories in various places, installed and used.

These arsenals soon began to produce a large number of new weapons for the New Army, which were then equipped with the New Army.

These new weapons were strictly monitored, and each weapon was numbered and handed over to the logistics department under the newly formed military headquarters for distribution.

All of these new firearms were only equipped for the use of the new army under the direct jurisdiction of Xiaotian, and it was impossible to obtain such weapons like the old army of the Ming Dynasty in the past.

Moreover, after the weapons were distributed to the troops, an extremely strict supervision system was also implemented, and all weapons were strictly registered, and the whereabouts of any numbered rifle or even bayonet could be found at any time, and then the pickets in the army went to various places to conduct regular weapons inventory of the troops everywhere, and any gun must be put in place, and the war-damaged weapons must be clearly explained after the war and after the war, and if they are damaged, there must be something before they can be exchanged for new weapons.

If it is lost on the battlefield or captured by the enemy, then it must be clear and have enough people to prove it, which also puts an end to the situation that in the previous Ming army, those generals secretly sold the good weapons in the warehouse, and then replaced them with a bunch of tattered and indiscriminate refills.

And now because the rifles produced by the Seawolf Group have all adopted the new type of fire cap firing, the production of ammunition is also very strict, especially the factory that produces the fire cap, the most stringent control has been implemented, including when the logistics department distributes ammunition, the fire cap is the most strictly supervised pyrotechnic products, and it must not be lost lightly.

In this way, even if some of the muskets in the army were captured by the enemy on the battlefield or lost and were obtained by ordinary people, these rifles could not be fired because they did not have a fire cap, and if they were separated from the fire cap, they would be a burning torch and useless at all.

Therefore, after several years of large-scale military operations, although these new rifles have also been lost on the battlefield, they can rarely be reused by the enemy, even if some fire caps are lost, as long as the enemy uses up these fire caps, these rifles will also lose their effectiveness and become a scrap metal.
