Chapter 43 [Seven Hatreds Against Ming]

At present, Tong Nurhachi has destroyed the Jurchens of the Hada Department, the Jurchens of the Huifa Department and the Jurchens of the Ula Department, and three times asked the Yehe Jurchen Department for Ulabele were refused, and after being angry, Tong Nurhachi led 40,000 Jianzhou troops to attack the Yehe Jurchens, and this time the Jianzhou army captured Jidang'a, Wusu, Yaha, Heiersu and other large and small walled cities 19 and approached Yehe City!

Forced Yehe Dongcheng Beile: Nala Jintaiji, Yehexi City Beile: Nala Buyangu, to ask for help from the Ming Empire, and then Ming Tielingwei generals: Zhou Daqi, Ming Tielingwei guerrillas: Ma Shinan, led the Ming army of 1,000 people with firearms into the Yehe Jurchen Department.

When Tong Nurhachi, who led the army, saw that the Ming army was helping, he knew that he was not the opponent of the Ming army, so he burned the house of the Yehe Jurchen Department and returned to Jianzhou Jurchen with the people, and the Ming army also sent a letter to inform the commander of the left guard of Jianzhou in the Ming Dynasty: Tong Nurhachi, be careful not to hinder the interests of the Ming Empire, for which Tong Nurhachi was very angry, but considering the lack of power, he held back, and also wrote back to the Ming Fushun guerrilla who guarded the imperial thousand households: Li Yongfang, and asked him to send a special message to say that the three guards of Jianzhou and the Ming Dynasty were still friendly.

In the forty-third year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, in 1615, Tong Nurhachi formally established the "Eight Banners System", stipulating that every 300 people (Niu Lu Ezhen), five Niu Lu Ezhen (Jia Lae Zhen), and Wujia Lae Zhen Li (Gushan Ezhen).

And Gushan Ezhen and respectively set up left and right (Melle Ezhen), Gushan both: yellow, white, blue, red four flags, in addition to the yellow, white, blue, red for the eight flags called "Bagu Mountain" about 80,000 people, Jianzhou Jurchen departments regardless of men, women and children are counted as flag people,

At this time, Ming Jianzhou Guangluo Baylor: Tong Chuying, because of his outstanding military achievements and the heir of the Jianzhou Jurchen Left Guard Commander, despised everything and looked down on his brothers, and often spoke offended people and was killed immediately after Tong Nurhachi knew about it, and at the same time, Ming Ning Yuanbo: Li Chengliang also died of old age!

In the forty-fourth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, in 1616 A.D., Tong Nurhachi called "the Wise Khan of the Nations" in the city of Hetuala, that is, the Great Khan, the founding name (Mandate of Heaven), the founding name of the country (Jin), and the historical name (Later Jin), but it was only the name of the Jurchen tribes, and the Ming Empire was still called the commander of the left guard of the Ming Dynasty.

Although Tong Nurhachi was furious, but because the current targets were the East China Sea Jurchen Ministry, the Beishan Jurchen Ministry, the Deer Ministry, and the Dog Ministry, as well as the suppression of the Yehe Jurchen Ministry, he could not draw troops to deal with Li's Korea for the time being, and the Daming Empire was also always staring at the Jianzhou Jurchen Ministry, so it was not the time to send troops to fight Li's Korea, and it happened that the plague began to occur in Houjin and there was a once-in-a-century (Xiaoice Period).

In the forty-sixth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, in 1618 AD, there was also a famine in Liaodong, and many residents of the guard house starved to death! In order to solve the food problem of famine, Tong Nurhachi pointed the finger at the Ming Empire.

On April 13, in the city of Hetuala, the major Baylors were convened to announce the so-called "Seven Hatreds" of the Ming Dynasty; My ancestors and fathers have not damaged the Ming side, and the Ming provoked the border for no reason, harming my grandfather and father, this hatred is also (in fact, the Ming army mistakenly killed his father and grandfather has long been dealt with), although the Ming provoked but I still want to repair, set up a monument and swore that 'all flags, Han people, etc. must not cross the line, and those who dare to cross the border will be punished when they see it', but Ming Fuyu vowed to cross the border to help Ye He, this hatred is also (this is a complete joke, the entire Liaodong Division, including the three guards of Jianzhou, is the land of the Ming Dynasty, how to cross the border? Moreover, he made trouble on the territory of the Ming Empire, and the imperial court must have sent troops).

The Ming people in the south of Qinghe Fort, north of the riverbank, every year to steal the frontier, wanton villages, I obey the oath to punish the Ming negative front alliance, accuse me of killing, detain my envoy Gangguli, Fangjina, hijack the border of ten people to kill, this hatred of three also (this is also a joke you collect things in the territory of the Ming Dynasty privately, and do not pay taxes The court does not kill it?) ), Ming crossed the border to help Ye He with soldiers, so that I have hired the daughter, and adapt to Mongolia, this hatred is also (this is also funny Ye He Jurchen Dongge didn't want to marry him, and the court still has an opinion on marrying him?) ), Chaihe Fort, Sancha Fort, Fu'an Fort three roads, I have been guarding the territory for many generations, cultivating the fields and art valleys, and clearly not allowing the harvest to be expelled by troops, this hatred is also (it is not surprising that the court expelled the wasteland without a permit in the land of the Ming Dynasty!) )。

Outside the border Ye He was convicted in the sky, Ming Nai believed his words as a special envoy, and the suicide note criticized the mausoleum insults, this hatred of the six also (this is obviously Jianzhou first hit Ye He, the court only intervened and Jianzhou is the courtiers have the right to manage), Xihada helped Ye He to invade for the second time, I reported myself, the sky has given me the people of Hada, Ming and the party, coerced me to return his country, and the people of Hada have been invaded by Yehe, and the countries of the country are also conquered, those who follow the heart of heaven win and survive, and those who go against the will of heaven are defeated and die, how can those who die in the soldiers be reborn, and those who get their people are even more important? The king of the great country of heaven is the co-lord of the world, why only to complain about our country, the beginning of the Hulun countries, the joint army invaded me, so the sky is tired of Hu Lun provoked, but I am a dependent, today Ming helps the curse of Ye He, resist the will of heaven, invert right and wrong, and dissect in vain, this hatred of seven also (Jianzhou privately provoked a war to annex other tribes, it is normal for the Ming Dynasty to let Jianzhou retreat, who let Jianzhou be dishonest?) )。

After the oath of the Emperor Wen sued the heavens, the long-term war between the Houjin and the Ming Dynasty began, in fact, the seven hatreds were just trivial things that fooled people, and they were also the excuse for Tong Nurhachi's rebellion! Many Jurchen Baylors saw this, so everyone didn't cooperate much at first.

Tong Nurhachi made a lot of preparations for the Ming Dynasty, and the attack on the Ming Dynasty would inevitably encounter siege problems, so he selected 50 armored people from each Niu Lu in the army, leaving 10 people to defend the city, 40 people to fight, and 20 of the 40 people who went out to fight made two ladders to prepare for the siege of the city.

Here, Tong Nurhachi chose the period of Mashi (April 8th to April 25th every year), during which the Ming army's defense was the most loose! On April 14, Tong Nurhachi led 20,000 troops to attack Dongzhou Fort and Magendan Fort to the east.

And Tong Nurhachi personally led the right wing of the four banners (yellow, red, red, white) and all the Bajiara (elite soldiers) in the eight banners to attack Fushun to defend the thousand households, before the war Tong Nurhachi repeatedly hesitated in his heart, he and the two Monan Mongols talked about the history of the first dynasty of Jin, and repeatedly emphasized that "Jurchen language: this time the revival of the division is all due to the Ming Dynasty, I resentment can not tolerate it." ”

However, the weather in April was unpredictable, and Tong Nurhachi also became extremely irritable and even had the idea of retreating? He said to the four great Baylors and his courtiers below: "Jurchen language: When it is rainy, it is inconvenient to march, and you can return to the army. This can make Houjin Beile and the ministers stunned, Houjin and Shuobeile: Tong Daishan, hurriedly said to Tong Nurhachi, "Jurchen language: Originally, we had been reconciled with the Ming Dynasty for a long time, but this time we only raised troops due to the problems of the Ming Dynasty, and now the soldiers are in the Ming Realm, but they want to retreat?" So is it a peace or an enemy with the Ming Dynasty? Besides, now that the retreat can't hide the move of the army, the arrow from the string can't be recovered, even if it rains, the weapons and arrows of my sergeants, the bows and arrows, what is there to worry about? Rainy weather can just make the Ming army unprepared, which is more conducive to our army's attack. ”

On April 15, the rain stopped and the Houjin soldiers pretending to be merchants drove dozens of carts slowly to the city, and lured the residents of Fushun Shou Qianhu to go out of the city to trade, taking advantage of the chaos when Emperor Tong Taiji personally led 5,000 Houjin cavalry to suddenly rush to Fushun Shou Yuqianhu City.

Tong Nurhachi also led a large group of men and horses to arrive, which made Ming Fushun guerrillas: Li Yongfang, he was shocked to see a neat Houjin army under the clear sky! Because of some friendship with Li Yongfang, Tong Nurhachi adopted the strategy of "salute first and then soldier", and the Houjin army shot a letter of surrender to Ming Fushun when shouting to the city tower.

I saw that the letter said (You are a little Ming Fushun guerrilla, can you beat my Houjin 20,000 troops?) Now you need talents like you anyway), and Li Yongfang plans to prepare with both hands, one side standing on the south city and discussing the surrender with the Houjin soldiers under the city, and the other side ordering the Ming army to prepare the city defense equipment.

Seeing this, Tong Nurhachi ordered to erect a ladder to attack the city, and the Ming Dongzhou general who had already surrendered to Houjin: Tong Yangzhen, also did the internal should unite with the Jin soldiers outside the city to break through the city gate, and Ming Fushun garrisoned: Wang Mingyin, Ming Fushun general: Wang Xuedao, killed part of the Ming army in the chaos and fled, Ming Fushun guerrilla saw that the general trend had gone and had to surrender Houjin!

Tong Nurhachi distributed 300,000 people of livestock and war booty to the armies of the Eight Banners who participated in the war, and organized the surrendered people into 1,000 households, and selected the captives from the merchants of Shandong Chengxuan, Shanxi Chengxuan, Beizhili, Hangzhou, Chengdufu and other places, gave them the passage fee, and handed them the (Seven Hatreds) inscriptions to build up propaganda for the Houjin army through dissemination.

At the same time, the Ming Dynasty Fushun guarded the talent of the Thousand Households: Fan Wencheng, who was captured as a slave and was reused by the Houjin because of his talent, Tong Nurhachi asked him to "shave his hair but it is not easy to accept it for the time being" when Li Yongfang surrendered to the Houjin, and Tong Nurhachi married the seventh son: Tong Abatai, the daughter to Li Yongfang as the second Ming supreme general after surrendering to Jin (the first is Tong Yangzhen).

At this time, the governor of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty: Li Weihan, he was extremely shocked after learning that Fushun Shouyu Qianhu had fallen! Urgently ordered the Ming army to rescue Fushun and guard the palace of thousands of households, although the Ming Dynasty had 100,000 soldiers in Liaodong, but they usually did not train much, so the combat effectiveness was not strong, and most of the 100,000 Ming troops had to defend various fortresses and cities, and there were no more than 20,000 people who could really fight with mobile forces!

Despite this, the governor of Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty still ordered the general army of Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty: Zhang Chengyin, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Ming Liaoyang Guard: Gu Tingxiang, and the general of the Wei of Haizhou of the Ming Dynasty: Pu Shifang, to lead a total of 10,000 Ming troops to attack quickly, but the general army of Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty was very cautious, and he wanted to consult with the governor of Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty before sending troops.
