Chongzhen Undergraduates

"Go, go!" Yang Zhan waved his hands impatiently, the winter night was a little cold, he wrapped his clothes tightly, looking forward to the good days of being a general by the emperor's side.

Near midnight, Wu Yanghu came back dejectedly. He searched for ten miles upstream, but found no problem.

At dawn, the soldiers who had slept in the tents in the wild put on their clothes tremblingly, packed their ordnance, and then stepped onto the wobbly pontoon bridge, crowded and trying to advance westward.

It was almost noon, Yang Zhan looked at the troops behind him and asked Wu Yanghu: "How many people have passed?"

"2 people have crossed the Xishui River, 1 people are between the two rivers, and the remaining 1 people are on the east bank of the Chishui River."

"Look, I told you that you were too careful. It's already noon, and nothing happened. We will be able to cross the river in another hour." Yang Zhan pointed to the much narrower Xishui River in front of him. , I am determined.

"Look, it's a big ship." One of Yang Zhan's soldiers pointed to the sails of the ship going upstream on the Yangtze River and exclaimed.

Wu Yanghu's heart tightened, and he quickly looked into the distance. There were indeed two large ships coming over the Yangtze River, and they didn't look like ordinary merchant ships.

"General, let's be careful." Wu Yanghu hurriedly urged.

Yang Zhan was also nervous at first, he had already slowly drawn his sword out of its scabbard, and if there were any bad signs, he would wait for the order to retreat.

But the two big ships on the Yangtze River were gliding slowly all the time, and there were no other ships behind them, just idle and lonely figures.

"Huh!" Yang Zhan took a deep breath, feeling that he was too careful.

"Look, big ship." Another soldier called out.

"What is it called? This general knows that there is a boat." Yang Zhan scolded angrily.

"No, General, this time it's upstream." The soldiers defended.

Yang Zhan looked towards the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and there was no sign of the boat. He turned his head and wanted to slap the soldier a few times.Then, the moment he turned his head, a large white sail was rushing toward the pontoon bridge on the upper reaches of the Jinsha River.

Yang Zhan was taken aback for a moment, and he immediately turned around again. There was also a large white sail on the other side of the Xishui River moving towards the pontoon here.

"Hurry up, cross the bridge quickly." Yang Zhan was anxious, he probably understood something, and he was so anxious that he yelled.

It doesn't matter what he yelled, the point is that the soldiers who were crossing the bridge were flustered, they didn't know which bridge the general was talking about.Because there are two pontoon bridges in sight, in an emergency, which one will your general let them cross?

Those who moved west and those who retreated east collided, and all of them were crowded on the bridgeheads of the two pontoon bridges at once.

"Come on! Break the pontoon bridge." Yu Dahai rushed towards the pontoon bridge with the warship pretending to be head-butted with iron.

Yang's soldiers immediately split into two from the middle of the floating bridge, and all fled to the bridgeheads on both sides.

"Crash!" The boat that was fighting on the pontoon bridge was bumped into a crash, and within the time of a cup of tea, the entire Yangbu was completely divided into three parts.

"Yu Dahai, what do you want to do?" Yang Zhan was so angry that he stood on the bank between the two rivers and jumped to scold Yu Dahai on the deck of the boat.

"Yang Zhan, I would like to advise you from the face of you who once fought with me and sacrificed thieves: Hurry up and hand over your military power, the emperor's grace is mighty, but you will not die."

At this moment, how could Yang Zhan not understand that this was the emperor's plan.His military power is too heavy, and the emperor is going to take back his military power.

"General, hand it over." Wu Yanghu sighed and looked at the empty river, and said regretfully.

"Don't even think about it! I still have 2 people on the west bank." Yang Zhan said stubbornly.

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!" On the west bank, in the distance, a group of battle formations in strange green clothes were approaching Yang Bu with shining spears.

"Luzhou, where are Yuan Tao and the others in Luzhou?" Yang Zhan was not reconciled, he stood on the bank and shouted towards the other side.

"General, the military newspaper just came. Yuan Tao and Wu Dading have already surrendered their weapons to the imperial court." An officer on the other side replied loudly.

"Look, general, those two big ships are coming." The soldiers mentioned the big ships again, but Yang Zhan could no longer blame them.

"The emperor has an order: Commander-in-Chief Yang Zhan boarded the boat to face the saint." The big boat slowly approached Yang Zhan, and a man in the uniform of a big inner guard stood at the bow and shouted loudly.

......

At the end of the year, the Sichuan Army was established in Chongqing.

The whole army has a total of 23 people, divided into five armies and twenty brigades for the army; one army for the navy and three divisions; one division for the artillery, and one brigade for the gendarmerie.

There is Deng Zhirong as the commander of the army (actually a puppet), Zeng Ying, the deputy commander of the army, Zuo Maodi, the chief of the general staff, and Dang Shousu, the deputy chief of the general staff; the designations of the five armies are the Eighth Army of the Ming Dynasty, the Ninth Army, and the Tenth Army. Army, Eleventh Army, and Twelfth Army; the commanders are: Hao Yaoqi, Liu Tichun, Yuan Zongdi, Yang Zhan, and Li Zhanchun;

The Zeng Ying Department was basically reorganized by the Yuanchuan Army, so the ordnance used a unified new type of firearm.However, Yang Zhanbu kept the original equipment unchanged, and added uniform armor.

For the staff of the original generals, etc., they will be unified into the staff headquarters of each army, and they will temporarily study in the Chongqing study class.The officers at all levels of the battalion, regiment and company will be served by more than 2000 backbones drawn by the Xinchuan Army. So far, the entire Ming army left in central Shu has basically been effectively controlled by Zhu Youjian.

The establishment of the Sichuan Army finally gave Zhu Youjian the capital to compete with Zhang Xianzhong and Azig in Shu.

At this point, both southern and eastern Sichuan were in the hands of Daming, and Zhang Xianzhong's Daxi regime was compressed in several counties in eastern and northern Sichuan, further shrinking the living space.

The most surprising thing about the reorganized army is that Wang Xiang, Yuan Tao, Wu Dading, Li Gande and others were completely dismissed from their posts and handed over to the military police.

In the first month, Wang Yingxiong was critically ill, and with Zhu Youjian's consent, their family moved out of the Chongqing camp.To benevolence is to die.

"What are Chen Zilong and Gu Yanwu doing? Why haven't they arrived yet?"

In the first lunar month, Zhu Youjian lost his temper at Deng Zhirong, and Deng Zhirong was as wronged as a little daughter-in-law.

"Your Majesty, I am also the commander of the legion after all, can you show me some face." Deng Zhirong said with a curled mouth.

Although Deng Zhirong's official position is the largest in Chongqing, in fact, when he saw these army commanders, he had to serve them with nods and bows.He knew very well that in terms of ability, all of these people were better than him.

Chapter 3 Ten: Zhang Kewang is Coming

The army is very useful, especially for occupying territory, as long as you send troops to a certain place, you can occupy it.

But to rule a place, you don't rely on the army, you have to rely on civilian officials.

The army in central Shu has been sorted out, but the official system in central Shu is seriously lacking.Zhu Youjian didn't dare to rely on the magistrate arranged by Wang Yingxiong, he had to send some people with real skills to sit in charge.

Who has the real skills?

Chen Zilong.

In the past two years, Chen Zilong has been serving as an official in the court since Zhu Youjian's side, and now it's time to send him to other places to practice.

Along with Chen Zilong, there was also Gu Yanwu.Zhu Youjian will definitely not send Gu Yanwu to the local government, but he is suitable for training local officials.

The Chongqing School of Administration and Management was specially set up for Gu Yanwu, and all the teachers were outstanding members of the batch of officials recruited in Huai'an.

According to Zhu Youjian's request, all the sixth-rank to ninth-rank officials in Sichuan and Hubei provinces must go to the School of Administration in order to receive two months of training.To complete this training, it will take half a year in total.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, before Zhu Youjian had breakfast, Ji Biao opened the door and came in to report: "Chen Zilong has arrived at Chaotianmen."

Chen Zilong really never thought that one day he would be the governor.Scholars in Fushe usually want to be a bachelor, a minister, and the like.As for local governors, they are generally not interested.

And Chen Zilong's governor came too fast, the territory is not big, but they are all on the front line: the governor of Sichuan and Hubei.
