Volume 11 Chapter 23 The fertile soil of Liaodong was attacked by a sneak attack

Dolgon, the fourteenth son of the Qing Emperor Nurhachi's favorite, was both civil and military, and was extremely intelligent, he was originally the most likely to inherit the throne, because his biological mother was the concubine Abahai at the time, and his status was equivalent to the queen of the Ming Dynasty, and his two brothers Azig and Duoduo, one fierce and one cute, were not the material of the Great Khan, so many clansmen thought that he would be the future Great Khan.

However, his father Khan died when he was fifteen years old, and his biological mother was also forced to be buried, so the Khan throne was finally taken away by the starling Huang Taiji, who was smarter than him.

If you can't be the master, you can only be the little brother honestly, but fortunately, his starling brother is not too cruel, and he didn't click all their brothers, and after the establishment of the dynasty and the emperor, he also named him Prince Heshuorui, which seems to be very good.

When you are a little brother, you naturally have to run errands for people, even if you are Prince Heshuorui, you have to run errands, no, his starling brother gave him another task, a dangerous task.

There are many kinds of dangerous missions, but this is his favorite one, because Huang Taiji asked him to lead his 10,000 elite horsemen with white flags to sneak attack a Han village, and the movement must be made bigger, secretly meaning to kill and burn all the robbers!

Burning, killing, looting or something, he liked it the most, so he came in a hurry.

Uh, isn't it a bit outrageous that 10,000 elite horsemen used the word 'sneak attack' to rob a village, are the people in the village peerless masters? Of course not, the village is full of ordinary people, at most they can pick up hoes and kitchen knives to resist a little, or bite them a few times, the reason why the word 'sneak attack' is used is mainly because the defense of the nearby Ming army is too tight.

Sun Chengzong, the commander of the Ming army in Liaodong, is a well-known old turtle, and the defense is called a powerful ah, you can repair the pillbox to spurt blood, although the village he is going to sneak attack this time is not in the Great Wall built by the Han people, but Sun Chengzong built a lot of small fortresses in that area, once their large cavalry appears, the fortress will be lit with wolf smoke, and it will soon be transmitted to the garrison, so their time is very tight, at most only about an hour.

This hour is not only about the time to burn and loot, but also the time to go back and forth, that is to say, within an hour, he must run over, burn, kill and loot, and then run back!

At this time, Dolgon was standing on a small mound, carefully checking the situation in front of him with a telescope, behind him, under the dirt slope, 10,000 bannermen led the war horses to stand there neatly, with the light of a beast flashing in their eyes, as long as he gave an order, these rabbit cubs would become real beasts!

The fortress built by the Ming army can be faintly seen in front, and it will definitely not work to sneak the horse forward, this old turtle has built the fortress so far, you must know that it will take at least more than a quarter of an hour to beat the horse and gallop to the village where they want to sneak attack, plus more than a quarter of an hour back, there is only about half an hour left for them to burn and loot, which is really not fun.

Dolgon cursed a few times secretly, put down the binoculars, walked down the dirt slope, turned over on the war horse, then raised his right hand, raised the horsewhip, and said loudly: "Get on the horse." “

With a bang, the 10,000 clansmen behind him neatly climbed onto the war horses, and the movements were extremely neat, and Dolgon didn't bother to say anything, so he whipped directly to the horse's buttocks and shouted: "Rush with me." “

The sound of horses' hooves was like muffled thunder, and 10,000 iron horsemen surged out from behind the mountain bag like a torrent, and the whole earth was shaken, and thick wolf smoke soon rose from the fortress in the distance, and the pillar of smoke soared into the sky.

Dolgon glanced at the fortress of the Ming army with disdain, and said in his heart: "You burn wolf smoke, unless Sun Chengzong falls from the world, how can he bear me, Lao Tzu will burn you a bigger one later!" “

Time was pressing, and he had to snatch away before the arrival of the Ming army, so he didn't pay attention to the Ming army fortress in the distance, but directly led the army to rush in the direction of the Han village.

The Ming army burned wolf smoke not to notify the garrison, but to notify the villagers of nearby villages, the Ming army in Liaodong had already enabled the telegraph communication system, although the standard line between the various fortresses and the garrison was not buried with a thick finger, but the thin line dedicated to the army was still connected, so the Ming army in the fortress immediately took a telegram to notify the garrison as soon as they found the Manchu cavalry, which was much faster than the wolf smoke transmission.

Although there is a telegraph line between the fortress and the garrison, there is no telegraph line in the nearby villages, and the wolf smoke is to inform the nearby villagers, danger, run!

At this time, several nearby villages exploded, and all the villagers, no matter what they were doing, all ran home, picked up the soft that had already been wrapped, picked up the child, and ran away with their wives and the elderly.

This has to praise Sun Chengzong's foresight, in fact, at the beginning he did not approve of the common people running outside the Great Wall to cultivate, but the land in the Liaohe Hetao area is too fertile, and the area is large, it is a pity to leave it there barren, so Chen Zilong discussed with Sun Chengzong, and finally moved the civilians over, however, the Ming army also established a strict defense system.

Building the Great Wall must be realistic, because the Liaohetao area is full of rivers, you can't even build the Great Wall on the river, you don't block the river, people just find a small river to wade the water and come over, you have no way at all, so Sun Chengzong chose to build a small fortress, with wolf smoke to warn, at the same time he also strictly ordered all villages must dig hiding holes in hidden places outside the gathering place, wolf smoke together, don't care about anything, run directly, if you don't run, don't complain about the court if you die!

Dolgon's heart is hot at the moment, he has not done this kind of burning, killing and looting for a long time, and he has not tasted the taste of Han women for a long time, and now he can finally refresh himself, he wants to howl excitedly!

After rushing to the Han village, Dolgon was directly dumbfounded, and he couldn't see a single figure! He was very unwilling to let his men rummage around the village, and they found food, clothing, and even livestock, but they couldn't find a single living person!

Seeing that time was running out, Dolgon was angry and ordered his men to pull all the domestic animals in the village to the entrance of the village, cut them all into pieces, take away the meat, and leave the head and internal organs, and then he ordered his men to light torches and burn the whole village to the ground, and then led his men to rush to the grassland with the looted goods.

After several years of development, Liaodong can be described as abundant food and clothing, especially in the Liaohetao area, the land is vast and sparsely populated, the land is fertile, and the villagers are still very rich.
