After the Wu Yue State Domain, Zhao Ming decided to expand the number of feudal soldiers to 300,000.Among them, there are five battalions of troops in the front and back, left and right, each army is 30,000 people, with one marshal and two governors on the left and right, and 30,000 people in the water camp army, one marshal and two governors on the left and right.These six armies, totaling 180,000 people, will become the central army of Wu Yueguo, and the remaining 120,000 people will become the county soldiers stationed in the locality.In principle, the county soldiers are only responsible for garrisoning the locality and do not fight across borders, but under special circumstances, they will also carry out conscription operations.The Central Army acted as a mobile force to support all sides and launch expeditions.In addition to the central army and local county soldiers, the Weisho Army is still maintained, but it is mainly established in overseas governorates, and the Weisho Army does not receive salaries, and needs to pay taxes to the feudal government every year, which is equivalent to the previous tun army.After the establishment of the seven major councils of the parliamentary government and the establishment of a perfect administrative system, with the flag-giving of the generals, the military system of Wu Yue was also established.However, Zhao Ming planned to expand the army to 300,000, but at this time there were only 200,000 soldiers and horses, and half of them were recently reorganized.At the time when Zhao Ming rectified his forces and established effective rule over the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, the original situation of confrontation between the north and the south was undergoing tremendous changes.Huguang, Jingzhou Mansion.After Wu Sangui withdrew from Sichuan and retreated to Hanzhong, Sun Kewang captured Chengdu and took control of Yungui and most of Sichuan.Sun Kewang is different from Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng, he has read some books, and in governing the locality, he is far stronger than Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, and even surpasses many officials in the Ming Dynasty, and has his own way of governing and governing the country.After driving out Wu Sangui, Sun Kewang divided himself and devoted himself to governing Sichuan and the southwest.Shu is fertile for thousands of miles, the place is rich, there is the foundation of the king's overlord, during the Longwu court wants to restore the rule of Sichuan, He Tengjiao has sent his son He Wenrui, leading more than 10,000 people, into Dongchuan, to Shu, want to represent the Ming Zhengshuo, to take over Shu, but was defeated by Sun Kewang sent troops.Sun Kewang said to the generals of the Western Army, "Fang is now rippling in the four seas, rising together, lonely and divided, the territory is better than Liu Bang's time, stronger than Liu Bei of Shu, if Fenweide is invested in the sky, the cause of the overlord will be successful."
Yes, it is advisable to change the name of the town to the people. ”After that, Sun Kewang went north and sent Li Dingguo to garrison Baoning Mansion, guard Jiange and Bazhong, defend Wu Sangui, and ordered Liu Wenxiu to seize Ba County and Fuling, control most of Chongqing Prefecture, cut off the connection between Shu and Huguang, and divide Shu.At that time, because there was a strong enemy in the north, and the Western Army had just occupied Chengdu, the people were not attached, Sun Kewang was worried about being attacked on both sides, so at the insistence of Li Dingguo and others, he accepted the canonization of the Longwu Imperial Court and became the king of Xichuan of the Ming Dynasty.Sun Kewang became the queen in Chengdu, so he devoted himself to governing Shu and the southwest, and implemented the strategy of suppressing the landlords and gentry, and gradually won the hearts of the people of Shu.Shu is fertile for thousands of miles, the soldiers are good and the food is sufficient, and after Sun Kewang drove away Wu Sangui, Shu is stable, there is no war, the people of Huguang and Guanzhong, I heard that Shu is peaceful, in order to avoid the war, many people have moved into Shuzhong.The Tusi in the southwest were also afraid of Sun Kewang's strength, and they sent envoys to Sun Kewang to pay tribute, recognizing Sun Kewang's status as the lord of the southwest.In this way, Sun Kewang is in the southwest, which can be said to be prosperous, and Xichuan is also thriving.Sun Kewang is in Shudi, I am the only one, the whole southwest, he is the only one, unlike the Manchu Qing in the north, to face the Ming army in the south, as well as the constant internal rebel forces, not like the Ming Dynasty, internal division, there are many hostile forces around, Sun Kewang is in the southwest, it can be said that he is blessed.After several years of painstaking management, Shu has been attached to the people, and Sun Kewang's ambition is also expanding day by day.At this time, Sun Kewang consulted with his subordinates and said, "Now the Central Plains is chaotic, the north and the south are fighting, and people are cannibalizing!"
The people have been repeatedly plagued by soldiers, slaughtered by people, and the cities and hills are ruins.Shu is fertile for thousands of miles, the soil is plastered, the grain is full of warehouses, the industry of Shu brocade, the world is covered with clothes, and the giant wood and stone are not usable.There are also the benefits of fish, salt, copper and silver, and the convenience of floating water.Today, the lonely north guards the sword pavilion and Bazhong, guards the danger of praise and obliqueness, rejects Ba County in the east, holds thousands of miles of land, and there are no less than one million soldiers.If the time is ripe, the army will be sent to the land, and if the time is not up, the land will be studied, the food and equipment will be accumulated, and the time will be waiting.The lone army is one million, the north can seize Hanzhong, in order to peep into Qinlong, the east can attack Yiling, build down the Ling, shake Jing and Yang.At that time, the name of the lonely will be known to the whole world, and it will be a big position immediately, so that the people will have something to rely on. ”Unlike Zhao Ming's cover-up, Sun Kewang expressed his ambition to fight for the world to his subordinates very early.However, although Sun Kewang has the intention to seize the world, it is also not easy for others to enter the south, and it is not easy for him to kill it.In recent years, with the gradual recovery of Shu, Sun Kewang is strong, rich and manable, so he naturally wants to do something, but Wu Sangui in the north is guarding Hanzhong, and it is difficult for the Western Army to break through, plus the Ming and Qing Dynasties negotiated peace, Xichuan as a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, it is not good to start a war with Wu Sangui, and it will not work to advance northward, and in the east, the Longwu Imperial Court also refuses to defend Yiling, blocking the road for the Western Army to go east, so that Sun Kewang can only play by himself in Shu.This made Sun Kewang very depressed, and often sighed why the time he had been waiting for had not come.A few months ago, the envoy of the Longwu court came to Chengdu to borrow troops from Sun Kewang to quell the rebellion of the Zhejiang army.The internal turmoil in the Ming Dynasty made the Longwu court sick and rushed to the doctor, and found Sun Kewang, which was in the arms of Sun Kewang.At that moment, Sun Kewang agreed to the envoy's request, ordered Liu Wenxiu to lead an army of 50,000, and took the opportunity to rescue Nanjing in the name of coercing He Wenrui, Qin Yiming and others who were loyal to the Ming Dynasty in eastern Sichuan out of Sichuan, and he led an army of 100,000 to control Kuizhou and eastern Chongqing, unify Sichuan, and then go out of Sichuan to join Liu Wenxiu.After the Western Army left Sichuan, Fu Shangrui, the governor of Huguang in the Longwu Imperial Court, sent personnel to peep into the reality and found that there were more than 100,000 soldiers in Xichuan, and he was immediately frightened.Looking at the posture, the Xichuan soldiers did not seem to rescue the Longwu Imperial Court, but seemed to take advantage of the fire to rob, coupled with the official gentry class, the natural vigilance of the rogue, Fu Shangrui ordered to cut off the supply of the Xichuan soldiers, with the intention of making the Xichuan soldiers, because of the lack of soldiers' food, withdraw some people back to Sichuan, leaving tens of thousands of people as the front and serve as cannon fodder.But I don't want to, the Xichuan soldiers are not so easy to knead, as soon as Fu Shangrui ran out of food, Sun Kewang found an excuse, took the opportunity to attack Jingzhou, occupied the important town of Chudi, and found an exit for the Xichuan army to go out of Sichuan.()
