The lure set up by Sonomu fled all the way back, and when he found that there were no pursuers behind the lure, he immediately understood that his plan had been discovered.

Since Lin Dan Khan was defeated by Wang Zezhi, this incident became a shadow in Sonomu's heart.

He only thought about it for three breaths, and immediately ordered a retreat and fled towards the Korqin Division.

Genghis Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan Dynasty, divided his second brother Hesar into the vast land in the area of the present-day Erguna River, the Hulunbuir Steppe in the Hailar River Basin, and the Outer Xing'an Mountains, and became one of the "host kings".

Genghis Khan expanded the "Huo'er Chen" with bows and arrows, that is, the Horqin Guard. Ghazal was the Uldulchi (commander), and was responsible for the guard and guard of the Great Khan's tent.

"Horqin" gradually evolved from the name of the military institution to the general name of the various ministries to which the descendants of Hesar belonged, forming the famous Horqin Department.

He once participated in the war of Yehe's nine tribes against Nurhachi with his father.

In the ninth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1624), Nurhachi sent Kurtang and others to Horqin to join the alliance with him, and then broke off with Chahar.

In the tenth year of the Mandate of Heaven, Chahar Lindan Khan attacked Korqin and besieged the city of Geljurgen. Nurhachi sent people to send a defensive strategy, and ordered Huang Taiji to lead 5,000 elite cavalry to help and relieve the siege.

In the eleventh year of the Mandate of Heaven, he led Horqin and other subordinates to go to Shenyang for a pilgrimage, and rewarded him richly, in order to support his granddaughter Princess Fuzhe's wife, and awarded him a large amount of attachment, and gave Tu Shetu Khan.

In the second year of Tiancong (1628), Huang Taiji planned to personally investigate Har, and the Horqin Department returned because of disobedience, and Tiancong went to Que for three years to ask for guilt.

In other words, the current Horqin Department is already a member of Huang Taiji.

It took half a month to get from Hanha to the grazing land of the Horqin Department, and Wang Zezhi was a hundred miles away from him, so he didn't believe that Wang Zezhi could catch up with him.

However, there are accidents in everything, and just in case, Sonom left Hanha, which was guarded by 5,000 tribesmen, and he threatened the families of these people, telling them to stay here.

If these people are disobedient, he will kill all the families of these people before Wang Zezhi's soldiers and horses catch up.

Sonomu's men had no way to retreat, so they could only take orders and stay here.

Sonomu himself, with his guards, fled eastward.

That night, Wang Zezhi's army marched steadily and cautiously arrived at Hanha.

After arriving at the position, according to the rules, they began to set up camp here.

Sonomu's men took advantage of the mountains to establish a defensive line in Hanha.

They dug pinzigs at the bottom of the mountain, and with these pinzits, the war horses could not attack their villages.

They were full of rolling stones and timber at the head of the village, and if they attacked, Wang Zezhi would inevitably suffer heavy losses.

"The Furlong cannon is divided into three batches, day and night, give me a night to bombard him, I don't believe it, this group of people can't be beaten with iron."

Wang Zezhi raised a monocular, through the light of the fire on the wall, to see the layout of the city, after he found that there was no artillery in the city, he planned to attack the city with firearms, not to fill it with human lives.

Trumpets and drums sounded incessantly, and according to the order, the sergeants began to attack in formation.

Soon, the shielded light cavalry escorted the gunners and advanced towards the attacking position.

The unshielded light horsemen kept their guard with bows, and the others went about their duties and got busy.

After the artillery reached the attack position, Wang Ze ordered: "Open the artillery!" ”

The fireworks that ordered the cannon to fire rose into the air, and the artillery symphony suddenly sounded.

"Boom~"

The Fran cannons were fast-firing, and their cannon fire was in unison, and they bombarded the enemy guarding the wall.

The enemy troops on the walled wall heard the sound of artillery and immediately panicked.

That's because they don't have firearms at all, and there is only a dead end for them to resist firearms with cold weapons and flesh and blood.

This is an unequal war.

In fact, the military power of the Ming Dynasty was still very strong during the Chongzhen period.

You must know that the Ming army's proud firearms unit once sent hundreds of thousands of wo troops to the sea to feed fish in the Wanli Korean War.

However, why did such a powerful Ming Dynasty not be able to defeat Houjin, who only had more than 100,000 soldiers and horses?

This is because in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, there were constant party disputes, corruption in the right government, and corruption in the monarchy, which aggravated the corruption of the system.

It is true that the Ming army had a large number of firearms within the army, but under various conditions of corruption, the quality of these firearms became very poor.

The poor quality of the firearms of the Ming army existed during the period of Qi Jiguang, and in his own "Actual Record of Military Training" it was recorded that the caliber of the Ming army's firearms and ammunition did not match the caliber of the guns, and even if the projectile could be put in, the ignition device was not easy to use, and the efficiency was extremely low.

In the period of Qi Jiguang, there was such a serious quality problem in the firearms of the Ming army, and it was even worse in the Chongzhen period.

If Chongzhen has enough means and strength to rectify the problem of corruption, it may not reach the point of destroying the country.

Is the Ming army at a low level of technology?

The answer is no, during the Jiajing period, Guangdong, Sichuan, Liaodong and other regions had arsenals, large-scale production, new weapons were constantly developed, and modern warfare mines, machine guns and other weapons had rudiments in the Ming Dynasty.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army had many departments in the production system, and they restrained each other, such as the powerful Lumi guns and Eagle guns, and in order to obtain more financial allocations and obtain some benefits from them, various departments quarreled with each other, attacked and suppressed each other, and racked their brains for corruption.

Because the craftsmen did not get enough money, they had to get by, how could the quality be good.

The Ming army was "short of money", and the tax revenue in the last years of the Ming Dynasty fell into a strange circle, that is, the imperial court desperately raised taxes, but the imperial court could not see the money, and even owed taxes, and some provinces did not pay taxes for three years.

The money went into the pockets of those landlords and wealthy merchants, and the land annexation led to the bankruptcy of a large number of peasants, and the land was concentrated in the hands of the landlords, and the preferential treatment policy of the gentry in the Ming Dynasty, these people did not pay taxes or paid less taxes, which led to the crisis of the central finances of the Ming Dynasty and also exacerbated the internal chaos.

Lack of money was the main reason for the lack of staffing, training, and poor equipment of the Ming army.

On the other hand, on the Houjin side, Nurhachi did rely on bows and arrows and broadswords to suffer the loss of the Ming army's firearms at the beginning, but Nurhachi was a powerful character, and began to study the firearms of the Ming army at the beginning of the rebellion, and hired Han craftsmen to provide technology, and exchanged a large number of furs and ginseng for gunpowder and iron tools.

Look at Wang Zezhi's side again.

He has money and food, and although he has either robbed or cheated it, he does have it.

Then, he was willing to pay the craftsmen and give them rewards.

The craftsmen have earned from their hard work, and they are naturally willing to do things seriously, and the weapons they make are naturally not to be said.

On the issue of corruption, first of all, starting with the deduction of military salaries, the salaries of the sergeants under Wang Zezhi's command were all distributed by ticket numbers, and did not go through the hands of generals at all levels at all.

There is a perfect financial system in the ticket number, and no one can carry out corruption in the ticket number.

Secondly, let's talk about the problem of empty salaries, the soldiers and horses under Wang Zezhi's command not only have household registration, but also nameplates and military records, all of which add up, and they can't be faked at all.

Besides, the soldiers and horses under Wang Zezhi's command are not in the hands of various generals, and the actual management of these soldiers and horses is all in the hands of Wang Zezhi.

If there is no appointment by Wang Zezhi, starting from the platoon level, these generals will become pensioners.

They just want to eat empty money, and they don't know where to start.

All these conditions add up, so that the team under Wang Zezhi has complete combat effectiveness
