Chapter 186: Oversized Jingguan
After dispatching two guards and ordering the soldiers of the two guards to get on the horse, Liu Xingzuo, who was not very upright in his three views, was very excited to personally lead the charge to Lin Dan Khan's royal court - I haven't personally slashed people with knives for a long time, and my hands are itchy!
And Arislan, who had already fallen into a bitter battle, had to watch the Ming army's infantry turn into cavalry, bypassing the battlefield and killing the royal court. The stunned Arislan had the intention to kill all the traitors in front of him who looked like they were also Mongols to stop the Ming army, but the two sides were already red-eyed, how could they let him go?
In desperation, Arislan only had one thought left, desperately, desperately to repel this wave of damned traitors, and then save as many people in the royal court as he could, and then go south to find the Great Khan and come back to avenge his people.
No matter what Arislan thought, or how desperately he tried, the cavalry of the two guards led by Liu Xingzuo had already arrived in front of the royal court.
It is said to be a royal court, but it is not as good as a city in the Ming Dynasty, at best, it is just a particularly large, fenced pasture.
I have long seen how the cavalry of the Xibe Department dealt with the Daming cavalry of the ranch of the Haoqi Special Department, and they also did the same, first raised the noose in their hands, and after a few circles, they threw it to the fence, and then they were ready to drag the fence away.
At this time, the crowd of onlookers in the fence had dispersed in a hurry. No one is stupid, and in the face of more than 10,000 cavalry onslaughts, no one would be stupid enough to believe that they could survive.
Pessimism began to spread among the Chahars. In the middle of the sweat tent, the elders who stayed behind in Chahar were also arguing. A group of elders, led by Secimbarge, thought that they should surrender.
In the eyes of Siqin Bari and other elders, the Ming people still want to save face, as long as they surrender, and then offer some cattle and sheep and the like, it is enough to ensure the safety of the tribe. As for the 10,000 horsemen of Arislan, who fought just now, it is estimated that he will die completely, and if he is gone, he will be gone, after all, this is also a matter of no way.
And several elders, led by Asgen, just firmly believed that they could not surrender. At this time, for the entire tribe, it is the right thing to quickly disperse and break through. The tens of thousands of cavalry outside are obviously prepared, and there are also Ming troops following, and even this kind of sub-work of taking advantage of the weakness to attack the undefended tribes has been done, so once the tribe is slaughtered, who can bear the responsibility at that time? It's better to run away as much as you can.
The two sides were at a stalemate, and in the midst of a stalemate, someone hurriedly ran in, knelt down and said, "Wise Elder Sichinbari and Elder Asgen, the cavalry outside has begun to attack the fence. ”
Seeing that no one could convince anyone, and that the loss of the tribe was in sight, Elder Asgen led the young men and women to break through to the south to find Lin Dan Khan, while the remaining people who could no longer ride horses, or those who were weak, stayed behind and surrendered to the Ming army led by Elder Shchinbari.
The two men had made up their minds and went their separate ways. After Asgen hurriedly gathered the young men, he didn't care about the formation, and twenty or thirty thousand people rushed to the southwest together.
At this time, the cavalry of the Beijing camp and the new army, who had just solved the fence due south, saw that about 30,000 Mongolian young men were breaking through to the southwest, and saw that more than 20,000 people in the fence came out of the tent one after another, kneeling and begging.
The grassland is so fucking big, as long as these people disperse on the grassland, they don't want to catch up. However, if he did not chase it, it conflicted with Emperor Chongzhen's previous instructions to kill as many as possible.
In fact, when the remaining more than 20,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people of the Chahar Department came out to beg for surrender, Azhislan and others, who were fighting hard, also saw it, and at the same time, they also saw more than 30,000 tribes breaking through from the southwest.
The heart of the determined Arislan is also exhausted at this time, even if his ten thousand horsemen are dead, as long as the tribe is not completely wiped out, it is worth it, there is no concern in the heart of Arislan and his ten thousand horses, even more desperate fighting, few people are willing to throw down the saber and kneel to beg to surrender.
Emperor Chongzhen watched this scene from a distance, and his face was already gloomy and he could wring out water.
What a trick gecko tail break! Throwing away a bunch of useless old and sick people to himself, he chose to break through when the fence was not broken, and he had no time to pursue them. As for the last 3,000 Xibe cavalry, he was reluctant to release it at all, 3,000 against 30,000, thinking about the scene of being submerged by the sea of people, Emperor Chongzhen decisively gave up the pursuit - these 3,000 cavalry are the seeds of the experiment, and they can't be wasted like this.
Chongzhen deliberately chose to pretend not to see the surrendered Chahar people who came out, until another half an hour later, waiting for Aslan's 10,000 cavalry had been strangled and wiped out, the soldiers in the Beijing camp and the new army who were temporarily transferred to infantry rode back on their horses, and the 10,000 cavalry of Bu Lost Rabbit and Zhuo Liktu Khan also reorganized their formation and gathered towards themselves, and Chongzhen staggered towards the royal court of the Chahar Department under the protection of the 3,000 Xibe cavalry who had taken the first step to protect him.
When Chongzhen arrived at the periphery of the royal court, under the leadership of Elder Si Qinbari, he chose to surrender, or volunteered to stay for the Ming army, nearly 20,000 people, except for Elder Si Qinbari, the rest had already knelt on the ground, burying their heads deep in the soil.
Elder Siqin Bari saw Chongzhen coming, and then looked at the three thousand cavalry not far behind Chongzhen, and then looked at the guards around Chongzhen who were obviously dressed as the Ming Dynasty standard army, how did Siqin Bari not know that Chongzhen was a big man in the Ming army? At that moment, he kowtowed and shouted: "Distinguished guest, you have come to the grassland from the Ming Dynasty, I don't know why you have such a big fire and such a disaster?" ”
Chongzhen sneered and said, "It's nothing, it's Lin Dan Khan who made me unhappy." And the souls who have lost their lives at your hands for so many years, I have no peace day and night, and I have to come. ”
I? Elder Siqin Bari, who had some understanding of Han culture, was stunned at that time, the word I have always been used by the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains, in addition, whoever uses it will die! So, this person who came was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty?
Siqin Bari didn't know the words that the current affairs are Junjie, but he also knew the truth of bowing his head when he should bow his head, so he immediately adjusted his body, knelt down more respectfully, and said in a muffled voice: "Great Ming Emperor, our Mongolia and Ming are friendly neighbors, slaves please let go of these hard-working minions of Har?" We are willing to pay 5,000 cattle and sheep and 2,000 fine war horses to atone for our past mistakes, and we only hope that you can quench the thunderous anger, and our little Chahar department really can't afford it. ”
When Chongzhen heard this, he glanced at Si Qinbari in surprise, this guy is a person who knows the times, if he comes again, it is impossible to accept his surrender.
It's a pity, Emperor Chongzhen, who never planned to accept such bullshit as surrender from beginning to end, sneered and said, "If you want to quench your anger, it's simple. It's just that I want to borrow something from you and so on. ”
Sichinbari asked respectfully, "I don't know what Your Majesty needs?" As long as the Chahar Department has it, it will not be stingy. ”
"It's to borrow the heads of Er and others to build a view of Beijing! Kill! ”
Emperor Chongzhen suddenly drank violently, but Siqin Bayi was stunned, this is the emperor of the Central Plains? How many years has it been since I've heard of this thing?
However, without waiting for Sichinbari to react, the 50,000 troops of Yingjing and the New Army, which had been prepared long ago, rushed to the royal court under the leadership of 3,000 Xibe cavalry.
Not to mention the more than 20,000 people who can run and resist, even if 20,000 pigs stop there and let people kill, it will take half a day. By the time more than 20,000 people had been slaughtered, the sun had set.
As a last resort, Liu Xingzuo and Zhang Zhiji first led people to the middle of the royal court to search for the things that caused the fire to make torches, and then lit a large number of bonfires, and then began to harvest human heads by the light of the fire.
At this time, the battle report of the day also came out, and the miscellaneous fish and ten thousand horses put together by Bu Lost Rabbit and Zhuo Li Ketu Khan killed two thousand, close to three thousand. Of the 50,000 soldiers in the infantry battle of the Beijing camp, nearly 5,000 were killed in battle, but only the cavalry of the Xibe Division, because they were ordered to press the rear of the formation, did not lose anything.
It wasn't until the second half of the night that Emperor Chongzhen, who felt that he had lost a lot of money because of the big losses in the battle, looked at the Beijing view in front of him, which was mixed with more than 20,000 heads, nodded with satisfaction, and instructed Zhang Zhiji and Liu Xingzuo: "All the cattle and sheep, not a single head will be left." All of them were slaughtered, and the meat was picked and taken away. The horses were picked and taken away, and the rest were slaughtered. Also, a monument was erected in front of the Jingguan, and it was written: Jitian Polar Earth, Eight Desolations and Six Combinations, all of them are Hanchen concubines! If there is a barbarian light man, he will search thousands of miles, and he will not be descended! ”
