The loss and recovery of Tianshuang County marked the end of the battle of Zhaoqing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the day of taking Tianshuang County, Lin Yi led the 1st Brigade and the 2nd Brigade of the Praetorian Guard Division to continue south.

On 25 August, the 2nd and 4th Divisions of the Longxiang Army suddenly intervened from the east and west flanks to intercept the retreat of the Allied forces to the north.

The allies, who were still arguing, were completely confused by this move of Shanhai City.

On 26 August, Zhang Han led a temporarily reorganized division to join Bai Qi. Bai Qi immediately ordered that the army should press on the whole line and complete the siege of Yun'an County.

In the days that followed, the Allies made several unsuccessful attempts to break out.

On August 27, Lin Yi led his troops to officially join the two masters of the Longxiang Legion.

The Allied retreat to the north was completely blocked.

On 29 August, the 2nd Division and the 4th Division of the Huben Regiment led by Sun Bin marched day and night, and finally arrived at the Zhaoqing battlefield one day ahead of schedule.

In this way, the entire Zhaoqing County gathered the Praetorian Guard Division, two divisions of the Longxiang Regiment, two divisions of the Huben Regiment, one division of the Leopard Tao Regiment, a garrison division, and a temporary reorganized division, a total of eight divisions and regiments, with a total strength of nearly 110,000 troops.

110,000 allied troops were trapped in Yun'an County, with no rescuers outside and no food and grass inside.

Surrender became the only option for the Allies.

The members of the [SAARC] were stubborn and refused to surrender.

Ouyang Shuo learned of the battle report from the front, and immediately ordered that the Praetorian Guard Division cooperate with Luo Shixin's division to sweep the northern part of Zhaoqing County, leaving no city or pool.

At this time, in the northern part of Zhaoqing County, there were only some remnants left in the territories, so there was nothing to worry about.

In less than a week, the northern part of Zhaoqing County was completely pacified. The lords of Zhaoqing County, who were nesting in Yun'an County, were teleported to Quanzhou by the great god of Gaia one by one.

On September 5, Xiao He led a group of officials to transfer from Wulong County and began to take over Zhaoqing County.

The last hope of increasing troops was cut off, and [SAARC] was completely desperate. Ruan Pingren, knowing that there was no hope of escape and did not want to be captured, committed suicide in the city one by one and returned to the territory to be reincarnated.

As soon as they returned to the territory, dozens of [SAARC] members all announced an expansion of 10,000 troops to deal with the threat of Shanhai City in the future. Ruan Ping, who also officially replaced He Buddha and ascended to the throne of the leader of the [SAARC] alliance.

On September 10, the only one among the lords, He Buddha, led his troops out of the city and surrendered. Along with He Fo, there were also the famous general Di Qing and 100,000 allied troops.

At this point, the battle of Zhaoqing, which lasted for a month and a half, was officially over.

With the end of the campaign, Gaia's blockade of channels and forums was officially lifted. The gossip news about the battle of Zhaoqing suddenly flew all over the forum.

Everyone knows that Shanhai City has won another key victory.

**********

September 14, Wulong County.

Bai Qi, Han Xin and other generals left their troops and rushed to Wulong County to meet the prince. Arriving with Bai Qi and other generals, there were also Song Wen, He Fo, Di Qing and others.

Ouyang Shuo was in Wulong County and held a military and political conference.

Present at the meeting, in addition to the generals, there were also Xiao He and the four directors of the Metropolitan Protectorate.

In this battle, except for the Tianshuang County Division, the number was revoked. All other divisions and regiments also suffered losses, with a total of more than 20,000 killed.

Of course, the captured warriors, too, is an astronomical amount.

In the battle in the south of Zhaoqing County, more than 40,000 people were captured, and Zhang Han was reorganized into a temporary division.

Outside Wulong County, there were 50,000 koji rebels, and more than 35,000 people were captured.

Outside the county of Genglou, 80,000 allied troops on the left route were captured, and more than 40,000 people were captured.

In Tianshuang County, 30,000 allied defenders were captured.

Yun'an County, 100,000 allied troops, all surrendered.

The number of prisoners of war who needed to be reorganized was close to 200,000, which was more than the total number of troops in Shanhai City.

How to reorganize such a huge army is a big question.

In the Battle of Zhaoqing, the shortcomings of the insufficient number of Shanhai City's troops have been undoubtedly exposed. Therefore, Ouyang Shuo is determined to carry out a large-scale expansion of the army this time.

Although it is said that it is the responsibility of the Military Affairs Administration, everyone knows that in the framework of military reorganization, the decision is made by the prince and the marquis alone.

Even Du Ruhui would not speak at this time and remained silent.

As early as when He Buddha went out of the city and surrendered, Ouyang Shuo was already planning the reorganization of the army.

At this military and political meeting, Ouyang Shuo officially threw out his reorganization plan.

First, the number of the Tianshuang County Guard Division was officially revoked, and the remnants of 2,000 were waiting for reorganization.

Song Wu's position as division commander was naturally dismissed.

Tianshuang County Guard Division, the imprint of the Song family is too deep. Many officers in the army are children of the Song family. Even if the Song family is Ouyang Shuo's in-law family, it is not tolerated by Ouyang Shuo.

Ouyang Shuo just took this opportunity to completely eliminate this hidden danger.

At this time, it was the time when the Song family needed to rely on Ouyang Shuo the most, even if they were dissatisfied, they didn't dare to say anything, it was the most suitable time.

When the Song family came to their senses, Ouyang Shuo would not be able to make a heavy hand.

Second, it replenished the battle losses of more than 12,000 people.

In order to make up for the battle losses of the master regiments, Ouyang Shuo set the rules, and from now on, in any major battle, all field divisions and regiments will be given priority, and the elite soldiers will give priority to them.

After the master regiments finished replenishing the battle losses, the remaining prisoners of war began to be reorganized. It is equivalent to saying that the most elite prisoners of war will be replenished to the master regiments.

In this way, the combat power of each master group will not drop significantly due to battle damage.

Third, the formation of garrison divisions.

In addition to the Zhaoqing County Garrison Division and the Lianzhou County Garrison Division, Ouyang Shuo also set up two additional garrison divisions.

One of the garrison divisions was supplemented to the Shanhai City Guard Division.

Shanhai City, as the center of the territory, was close to a city guard division, which seemed a little thin, which made Ouyang Shuo a little constrained when he mobilized the Praetorian Guard division.

Therefore, taking this opportunity, Ouyang Shuo expanded the City Guard Division into two divisions. In this way, even if the Praetorian Guard Division is not in Shanhai City, the base camp can be worry-free.

In the future, Ouyang Shuo's goal is to promote the City Guard Division to the City Guard Regiment and blind the four divisions.

At the moment, there are two divisions, which are worry-free for the time being. If the one-time expansion is in place, the number of soldiers is sufficient, but the finances of Shanhai City are a little unaffordable.

Although Shanhai City is becoming more and more prosperous, the financial income is also very considerable. However, on the whole, it is still in a stage of rapid development, and it is necessary to continuously invest in finance.

Ouyang Shuo didn't want to dry up and fish, causing too much burden on Shanhai City's military expenditures.

The other garrison division is prepared for Yufo County.

Jade Buddha County is a nail embedded in Jiaozhou County by Ouyang Shuo. In order to defend this nail and prevent it from being pulled out by the [SAARC], it is naturally necessary to guard it with heavy troops.

The candidates for division commanders of the four major garrison divisions were also selected one by one.

The division commander of the Lianzhou County Garrison Division is Hu Yibiao, who has been set before. The division commander of the Zhaoqing County Garrison Division is the young general Su Wang.

The remaining two garrison divisions were selected for division commanders, and Ouyang Shuo was handed over to the Military Affairs Administration to draw up.

In any case, Ouyang Shuo still had to properly respect Du Ruhui, the director of military affairs, and give him limited power to appoint and dismiss generals.

Otherwise, in the long run, Du Ruhui's life will be difficult.

Taking this opportunity, Ouyang Shuo also arranged Song Wu's position together. Song Wu was appointed by Ouyang Shuo as the deputy division commander of the Leizhou County Garrison Division, which was equivalent to a half-level demotion.

If Song Wu behaves competently in the future, Ouyang Shuo will promote him to the commander of the division, which is not impossible.

In this battle, the performance of the Leizhou County Garrison Division was affirmed by Bai Qi. Zhao Yan, the commander of the division, naturally returned to Ouyang Shuo's sight.

At the right time, Ouyang Shuo was ready to transfer Zhao Yan, a fierce general, back to the field army.

Fourth, expand the Leopard Tao Army.

Ouyang Shuo wants to reorganize the Leopard Tao Army in place at one time this time.

Zhang Han succeeded Wei Zhang as the division commander of the 1st Division of the Leopard Tao Regiment. Wei Zhang took over the temporary division reorganized by Zhang Han, and the number was determined to be the second division of the Leopard Tao Regiment.

In the corps, the first division to the fourth division seem to be all divisions and regiments, and the ranks are equal, but in fact there are still some differences. The higher the ranking, the higher the status.

The candidates for division commanders of the first divisions of the major army corps are the most powerful contenders for the future corps commander candidates. Whether it is Shi Wansui of the Longxiang Legion or Fan Lihua of the Tiger Ben Legion, this is the case.

Zhang Han became the third person.

After all, with Zhang Han's ability, even if he is the commander of the legion, he is more than enough. At the right time, Zhang Han will be able to be promoted again.

In addition, from the prisoners of war, two master regiments were reorganized, and they were given the names of the Third Division and the Fourth Division of the Leopard Tao Regiment.

Demoted to Di Qing, he served as the division commander of the 3rd Division of the Leopard Tao Army.

Di Qing's ability, in the battle of Zhaoqing, has begun to show its edge. Compared with Wei Zhang, it is naturally better than that, but it is a new general, so naturally he can only be subservient to Wei Zhang.

Under Luo Shixin's account, there were two young generals, Shao Bu and Sun Chuanlin, both of whom were first-class cavalry generals. In this battle, the performance of the two was excellent.

Sun Chuanlin, a general with cavalry and archery expertise, was brave in battle, calm and calm, and was promoted by Ouyang Shuo to the division commander of the Fourth Division of the Leopard Tao Legion.

This is another division commander of the general field division regiment trained by Shanhai City after Lin Yi.

Coincidentally, both Lin Yi and Sun Chuanlin had previously served under Luo Shixin's account. Coupled with Shaobu and Sun Tengjiao, they are the four young generals before.

Luo Shixin's division, the first cavalry division in the territory, the first division to pass the trial of the legion, and the field ace division whose status is second only to the Janissary Division, is not in vain.

The two major cavalry divisions can be described as two walls of territory.

Luo Shixin, a young general, was also more and more recognized by Ouyang Shuo. The potential of Roshison has not been exhausted, and there is still the possibility of further progress.

Ouyang Shuo was looking forward to the day when Luo Shixin was promoted to an emperor-level general. (To be continued.) )
