Chapter 333 A wave of liquidation

After Zhao Yucheng left, the only Zhao family in power in Shandong was Zhao Zuoliang.

Zhao Zuoliang is also Su Yonglin's father-in-law, a family, like the Su family is better than the Zhao family.

So far, the Zhao family has basically been eliminated from the world.

After Su Yonglin took the Zhao family's forces in one spoonful, the Restoration Army no longer had the ability to compete with Su Yonglin, and with the addition of Sun Ziyi, who had surrendered earlier, the three leaders of the Restoration Army's uprising, finally Su Yonglin was the only one left. .

He justifiably became the sole leader of the Restoration Uprising.

As the sole leader, he will lead the rest of the Restoration Army to continue to walk to the other side of the light.

The twelve states of Jeju, Yanzhou, Tengzhou, Xuzhou, Haizhou, Yizhou, Juzhou, Mizhou, Pizhou, Laizhou, Ninghai, and Dengzhou in Zhao Kaishan's ruled area, plus the entire Daming Prefecture, became Su Yonglin. defense zone.

As a result, Su Yonglin's control area was increased to five roads, namely Hebei East Road, Hebei West Road, Shandong East Road, Shandong East Road, and Damingfu Road. Half of the Central Plains were already in hand.

And this day was May 29th, which was just over a year and a month before the official launch of the Guangfu Army Uprising.

A year ago, Su Yonglin was just an outsider with hundreds of soldiers. He had no foundation. Besides himself, Zhao Kaishan had to provide many things before he could survive.

A year later, Su Yonglin has become the leader of hundreds of thousands of the Restoration Army, the ruler of Hebei and Shandong, and the ruler of tens of millions of people.

The sudden expansion of the power and the final confirmation of the command of the Restoration Army made Su Yonglin's subordinates and the former Zhao clan members who were lucky enough to survive very happy, thinking that good days are coming.

Everyone was celebrating Su Yonglin's reversal of chaos, and was immersed in joy, but Su Yonglin himself was not immersed in the joy of turning the tables on the customer.

The benefits are indeed a lot, but he has too much to do.

Because he got too many "legacy" belonging to Zhao Kaishan and the Zhao family, he couldn't be happy in time, and he needed to spend a lot of energy to process and digest these legacy.

First of all, he obtained more than 80 mu of unowned fertile land from the states by liquidating the Zhao family and the local powerful families who took refuge in them.

Not wasteland, but fertile land that has been cultivated, maintained, and grown with food.

This is only a preliminary statistical figure, there should be more, and it may exceed one million mu at any time.

Nothing to say, Su Yonglin immediately sent someone to count the number of fields and mu and the specific situation of the local farmers who lost and lost their land, and contacted Tian Guizi to select an instructor, planning to build a large number of new villages here as his basic plan.

During Su Yonglin's stay in Hebei, he did not relax his efforts to expand the sphere of influence of the new countryside in Shandong. Today, the population living in the new countryside has reached about 140 million.

And this wave of good land contributed by the Zhao Group will allow him to build more new villages and accommodate more people. The directly governed population will go directly to 200 million, or even exceed 200 million, and go directly to three.

After eating this piece of meat and digesting it, he can cultivate more fire, and when the time comes, this fire can burn the sky in Shandong and Hebei red.

Of course, his mouth was full of oil when he ate this big piece of fat, and his stomach was too heavy, a little greasy, and a little indigestion.

Therefore, this matter needs to be taken slowly, and it will take a long time to complete the process. The military and administrative aspects have to be expanded and reorganized, so there is no hurry.

After appointing a special person to follow up, Su Yonglin can go to work on other things, such as the army.

In addition to the disposal of the land, the liquidation of the army is also very important.

Taking advantage of this wave of liquidation of the Zhao Group, Su Yonglin ordered a liquidation of the nine main forces of the Restoration Army under Zhao Kaishan.

This wave of liquidation is to face the officers and some hilltops in the army.

Su Yonglin selected instructors and officers from the Military Justice Department from his own army to take charge of the matter. He used the public land system as a basis to deal with officers who occupied public land, beat and scolded soldiers, and violated the law in an all-round way. .

As a powerful and powerful war god of the Restoration Army, Su Yonglin's prestige is beyond Zhao Yucheng's reach, so he can do things that Zhao Yucheng can't do, and he can suppress those who Zhao Yucheng can't suppress.

The original high-level Restoration Army was taken away in one wave, and the remaining middle and lower-level personnel did not even have weapons, so they could not fight against the Tianxing Army and Tianxiong Army brought by Su Yonglin.

As a result, a large number of Liberation Army officers and their cronies were successfully liquidated. Every day, officers from the Military Justice Department took the officers away for examination in front of the soldiers, but no one could resist.

And not only the army that was close to Zhao's group, but also the back-wei army and the enemy-breaking army, who had the most credit for the mutiny, were also sent to review by Su Yonglin, and a wave of unqualified officers was screened out.

The final review is over, and few have returned safely.

Those who committed serious crimes were executed, those with lesser crimes were packaged together and sent to the Hejian House to be reformed by the Guidance Department.

The liquidation of officers is the main task, of course, a wave of selection of soldiers is also necessary.

Zhao Kaishan simply pursued the quantity of the army rather than the quality of the army, and even forced conscription.

Su Yonglin strongly disagreed with this concept of governing the army, so the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled were eliminated on a large scale, and only the young and the strong were retained in the army.

After the first wave of selection, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled in the army were basically expelled.

Then, Su Yonglin also sorted out the kinship in the army and made a selection of the second wave.

If the father and son join the army together, the father goes home, the brother joins the army together, the younger brother goes home, and the only son in the family retire and go home.

Those who are selected to retire and go home will also receive travel expenses to ensure that they can return home safely and alive to start a new life.

Su Yonglin believes that this wave of selection will not only reduce the overstaffing of the army, but also reduce the burden on the people and gain popularity.

Sure enough, the whole army was full of praise.

The strong man who received grace to be relieved from military service and received travel expenses thanked Su Yonglin for thousands of dollars, and embarked on the road home with gratitude, wiping tears as he walked, thanking himself for having a new life.

When these people return home, they will widely publicize the kindness of Su Yonglin to them, and the popular support rate of the Liberation Army, which has dropped to a freezing point in this area, will also rebound due to the change of leaders and the implementation of new policies.

After the two waves of selection, the 5 to [-] Liberation Army retained a little over [-].

These 5 elite soldiers were reorganized into five armies by Su Yonglin. The military titles were Beiwei Army, Tabai Army, Youyi Army, Breaking the Enemy Army, and Xuanfeng Army.

Of course, although the bugle name remains the same, the inside has been reorganized by Su Yonglin in accordance with the way of his troops, set up lieutenant generals, set up instructors, and unified them into the regiment system.

Su Yonglin dealt with the entire Shandong Restoration Army resolutely, copied his own rules to the Shandong Restoration Army, and completely crushed the old model with a management model they had never heard of.

As a result, the more than 5 troops began to glow with a different vitality.

After the liquidation was over, Su Yonglin re-appointed officers. The general who backed Wei Army was still Li Xiao, the general of You Yi Army was still Zhou Zhi, and the general who defeated the enemy was still Chen Qiaoshan.

Su Yonglin appointed Li Rui, the deputy general of Tianxiong Army, as the leader of the White Army, and Zhang Deguang, deputy general of the Tianxing Army, as the leader of the Fengfeng Army.

I have to say that the qualification rate of Zhao Kaishan's army is really low. Su Yonglin can't do it if he wants to keep more troops, so he can only reorganize into five armies, as a warning against the Southern Song Dynasty and the Nanjing Road of the Jin Dynasty. strength.

In this case, it is impossible to expand the army, and no one can handle it. Fortunately, the possibility of the Southern Song Dynasty deploying troops to the north is still very low. Su Yonglin is not worried that the Southern Song Dynasty will deploy troops to the north, so a small number of front-line arrangements in Haizhou and Pizhou are arranged. The force is still quite appropriate.

The main force is still to be settled on the front line of Jeju, Tengzhou and Damingfu, as a guard force on the line of Jinguo Nanjing Road.

But in the short term, there shouldn't be a fight.

Zhao Kaishan used more than [-] troops to fight with Jinbing on Nanjing Road. Nanjing Road should also suffer serious losses, and he will not take the initiative to attack in the short term.

The entire southern and western fronts were the result of Zhao Kaishan's southern and northern wars. Although Zhao Kaishan didn't achieve any substantial results, he still managed to make Jin Bing tired.

His one-pass king and eight punches indeed consumed a lot of the strength of the golden soldiers in this area, so that even if Su Yonglin expanded his territory, he would not have to face the sudden increase in military pressure.

This has played a great role in his reform and liquidation.

So it is really not true to say that Zhao Kaishan left him nothing.
