Chapter 131: The End of the Jianzhou Jurchen
Chapter 131: The End of the Jianzhou Jurchen
The spring breeze in the northeast is much later than in Kannai.
Now Li Manzhu is in a dilemma.
It was impossible to maintain the siege of Hercynian City. After all, it is impossible for the Jurchen tribe to provide such a large number of full-time laborers. It was winter before.
Everyone is in Wodong, and the camp left behind by the Waspur people is a little better than the camp established by the Jurchen tribes themselves.
So everyone stayed in this camp for the winter.
All winter, the two sides just looked at each other in the snow.
There was no idea of fighting at all.
And this spring, the flowers are blooming, the ice and snow are melting, and the ground is still muddy, but it is already a time of year full of vitality, and the Jurchen tribe also wants to farm.
If you don't farm, how can you sustain the livelihood of tens of thousands of people? In particular, the Jianzhou Jurchens are the most civilized and civilized tribes among the Jurchen tribes, and their agricultural level is also the highest.
In the Northeast, you can only grow one season a year.
If you don't plant in the spring, you don't have a harvest for a whole year.
Therefore, Li Manzhu, no matter how he thinks about it, is impossible to resist this natural law, and if he does not spread out all parts of the Jurchen to cultivate, he will starve to death this winter.
Spread out the parts to cultivate, and there was no strength to fight back in the face of the Ming army.
It's just the difference between dying early and dying late.
Li Manzhu asked for help many times, but now in many places on the grassland, no grass has grown at all, and a large number of cattle and sheep have starved to death.
This is the biggest crisis that we have to face first, as for food. I'm sorry, but there aren't many of them first, let alone supporting the Jianzhou Jurchens.
Therefore, Li Manzhu thought about it. Finally, it was decided to draw an army of 15,000 people from the various Jurchen tribes and garrison it outside the city of Haixi. Blockade the Hercynian army in the city of Hercy.
Other places are farming in Shuangcheng, Mao Lianwei, and other places.
Because these places are not far from Haixi City, and there are cultivated fields left by the Haixi tribes. It is also convenient for planting.
After the spring ploughing, the troops will be gathered outside the city of Haixi.
Seeing that Wang Manzhu was like this, all the tribes in Haixi City begged for battle, but Jiao Li did not allow it, and just asked the people below to wait.
Wait for whom.
It's Guo Deng.
Because the Liaodong Army was seriously injured last year, Zhu Qizhen transferred more than 10,000 cavalry from Beijing, plus the men and horses of the Liaodong headquarters, and obtained 20,000 cavalry. Because Fang Jin is in Fujian, Guo Deng's deputy general is Liu Ju.
Who is Liu Ju?
is Liu Yongcheng's nephew.
Liu Yongcheng is not visible in Beijing, but he is a eunuch of the imperial horse and is in charge of martial arts, and he is low-key as if there is no such person in Beijing.
But who doesn't know the real bigwigs that Liu Yongcheng is one of the emperor's dependents. The nobles did not dare to be small
Peeped at the men and horses of the Imperial Horse Supervisor.
Liu Yongcheng is extremely strict with his nephew, and he has also served as a martial arts instructor, after all, there are so many people in martial arts, and Liu Yongcheng cannot teach them one by one, so he naturally has helpers.
Not to mention, Liu Ju's own ability is not bad. At least it's not mud that can't hold up the wall. In addition, the emperor has to give Liu Yongcheng some face.
Liu Ju is naturally on the rise and has become a general promoted by Zhu Qizhen.
Participated in the Battle of the Jurchens in the pacification of Jianzhou.
Because many people can see that although this battle has not yet been fought, the number of wins and losses is already clear, and it is just a few points to win.
Therefore, Guo Deng, Liu Ju, and Shi Ju divided their troops into three routes, assaulting Jianzhou Wei, Mao Lianwei, Shuangcheng and other places, and even the Koreans wanted to send a group of men and horses to join the war.
was only rejected by Guo Deng.
North Korea is just supporting food and grass.
The battle was overwhelming.
In a few days, the Jurchen tribes gathered, and there were tens of thousands of people, but now they are scattered all over the place for spring ploughing. Scattering with a gathering is like chopping vegetables and melons, and it will calm down all parts of the country smoothly.
Li Manzhu already felt bad.
Therefore, when Haixi City got the news that Guo Deng had sent troops, Jiao Li naturally would not press the men and horses who were about to move, and the 30,000 people in the city came out of the empty city, combining foot and horse, and approached Li Manzhu under the camp.
It was only at this time that they found out that Li Manzhu was already empty.
Jiao Li hated it, and without saying a word, he ordered Shi Heng to pursue.
Shi Heng was not idle throughout the winter. The Jurchen warriors under his command, who had been training, were full of revenge at the moment, and as soon as Shi Heng chased him out, he was like a mad dog.
Biting Li Manzhu's tail.
Li Manzhu knew very well that he would not join first, he actually did not have the ability to gain a foothold in this area of the western part of the strait. So he simply wanted to sneak over Changbai Mountain and retreat to the west of Changbai Mountain.
He felt that the Ming army would not easily cross Changbai Mountain, after all, the west of Changbai Mountain was the territory of Wuliang Ha Sanwei, which was adjacent to the territory of Waspur.
It was easy to get the support of the tile spurs.
It's just that what Li Manzhu can think of, Guo Deng can't think of.
Therefore, when Li Man lived in front of the three passes and wanted to pass through the three passes through Changbai Mountain, he found that the red flags around him were erected all at once, and the mountains were all over the field.
A general appeared with cavalry and said, "Li Manzhu, Min Xibo has been waiting for a long time. ”
Li Manzhu can also be regarded as a heroic figure. has a very charismatic personality, even now he does not bow his head, and in a big battle with Guo Deng's department, the two sides are fighting east of Changbai Mountain.
After half a day of fighting, Shi Heng came from the east and finally sealed the victory.
Li Manzhu fled west along the Changbai Mountains for several miles before being killed by Shi Heng in a ravine.
Shi Heng carried Li Manzhu's head and said, "Lao Tzu, I have seen it a long time ago."
If you don't like it, you're today. When he was about to collect his troops, he saw a soldier holding a large stone in his hands and said, "General, look, what is this?" ”
Shi Heng looked over from a distance, and the sunlight shone on this stone, scattering golden light. As soon as his hand was loosened, he didn't even want Li Manzhu's head, so he stepped forward a few steps, took the stone, washed it with stream water, and then looked at the lines on it.
Dog's head gold is a piece of dog's head gold.
There are more than a dozen catties in this piece. It is worth at least a few hundred taels of silver. Again, it's just the weight of gold.
Shi Heng's breathing suddenly became short, and he said, "Look for it." Perhaps. ”
Needless to say Shi Heng, many soldiers went to look for it, and after a while, they found large and small doghead gold. It's clear that this is a gold mine.
Shi Heng thought of a lot of ideas in an instant.
As long as you occupy this place. In the future, there will be endless glory and wealth. Even he has the heart to kill people in his heart, although they are all his own soldiers.
But this is not to say that all of his personal soldiers are reliable.
At this moment, suddenly the crisp sound of horses' hooves came, and a group of cavalry rushed over, led by Guo Deng.
Now that the fighting elsewhere had subsided, the Jurchen tribes had either surrendered or been killed. And Li Manzhu is the culprit, if he doesn't die, this matter will not be over.
Guo Deng naturally brought people over to take a look.
Guo Deng didn't notice anything, but when he saw that Shi Heng didn't come to salute, he took a closer look at Shi Heng and his party's nervous appearance. Already on one side of the golden light.
Figured out what in a flash?
Guo Deng said: "General Shi, there are some things that you seem to be clear. ”
Shi Heng's face turned pale for a moment, he bowed his head slightly, and various expressions appeared on his face, and finally he held a piece of dog's head gold and said, "Your Majesty Hongfu Qitian has found a gold mine here. This is a great auspicious time. ”
Guo Deng asked people to take the dog's head gold, glanced at it, put it aside, and said: "Sure enough, it is auspicious, Your Majesty will be happy to know it, and the credit of General Shi is indispensable, Your Majesty will not treat the meritorious people badly." ”
But even so, Shi Heng's heart was like a knife.
This is the difference between people, although Shi Heng also has a hereditary military position, but the official is not big, and his current status is also fought by himself with a knife and a gun.
But Gordon. He was born in the Marquis of Wuding, although he is a concubine and grandson, and the treatment he enjoys is lower than that of his concubine, but even so, the life he enjoys is more than 99% of the people in the Ming Dynasty.
It is a real nobleman. I don't dare to say that I regard money as dung, but if we compare gold and silver with saints, Guo Deng definitely doesn't care about the so-called gold and silver.
When Shi Heng meets others, he may be able to add two to five, but when he meets Guo Deng, he doesn't want to think about it at all.
He can't buy Guo Deng.
