Volume 6 Chapter 17 The First Fierce General
The leader of the Sunit Department has been very annoying for the past two days, since Lin Dan Khan was defeated by Houjin and went west, his Sunit Department has gradually become the largest Etok on the right wing of Chahar, so this time he got most of the land around Jinzhouwei, he gathered almost all the warriors of the tribe and was about to receive it, but Houjin Great Khan Emperor Taiji sent someone to tell him that the road to Jinzhouwei was cut off by the Ming army, and let him be stationed between Shengjing and Dingliao Zhongzuowei and so on.
The delicious sea bass and yellow croaker, as well as the legendary abalone, oysters, and shrimp crawlers, are all peerless delicacies recorded in the Dayuan classics, but unfortunately since Dayuan was driven to Monan and Mobei, that delicacy exists in the classics.
The leaders of the Chahar tribes have discussed the most in the past few days about the issue of eating, how lucky are the leaders and nobles of the Great Yuan period, all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas are eaten until they vomit, but they can't even eat a few full meals of beef and mutton, and now they are about to eat the legendary delicacy, but you Houjin let us wait, how can people bear it?
Therefore, when Huang Taiji came to the gathering place of the Mongolian tribes, the leaders of the various tribes immediately made a fuss: "What about the land that was said to be good? What about the grain and grass all over the land? What about the delicacies of the mountains and the sea? ”
They are annoying, Huang Taiji is more annoying than them, the right guard of Dingliao was occupied by the Ming army, and more than 200,000 Ming troops appeared outside Haizhou City, Dai Shan led the main force of Houjin to be dragged there, not to go, not to stay, the situation is terrible, these barbarians are still noisy in front of him, it is really annoying.
Huang Taiji sat on the top seat, looked coldly at the leaders of the Mongolian tribes, a poisonous plan slowly appeared in his mind, the plan was certain, he immediately stood up, slapped the table and shouted: "What is the noise, am I not believing in my words?" Who knew that the Ming army would move so fast, now they have taken the right guard of Dingliao, and the road to the south has been cut off, you have to rush to receive the land, and go and snatch the right guard of Dingliao back yourself. ”
He slapped the table, and the leaders below were stunned, what kind of joke, said that he was just guarding the city and watching, but now you are telling us to attack the city!
Everyone, look at me, I'll look at you, and finally the leader of the Sunit tribe couldn't help but speak: "Great Khan, it's okay that we're just here to defend the city." ”
Huang Taiji was waiting for this sentence, he pretended to be angry and said: "Okay, okay, you go to defend the city, now the Ming army is outside Haizhou City, and the main force of my Houjin is all contained there, you go to Haizhou City to guard, I will transfer the main force to attack the right guard of Dingliao." ”
The leaders began to roll their eyes again, and someone asked, "How many Ming troops are there outside Haizhou City?" ”
Huang Taiji said disdainfully: "Don't worry, it's only 200,000, I will leave 100,000 garrisons from other tribes and my Houjin coalition army, and if you go over again, it will add up to 200,000, 200,000 against 200,000, you are not afraid that the Ming army will attack the city, right?" ”
Generally, the casualties of the siege are greater than the defense of the city, if the siege is carried out in the case of one to one, I am afraid that the city will not be able to be captured if everyone is dead, as long as the Ming army's brain is not in the water, it is unlikely to attack the city, listening to Huang Taiji say this, the leaders put their hearts back in their stomachs.
One of the leaders asked the last question: "How big is Haizhou City, can garrison 200,000 horses, I'm afraid there are not enough places to camp, right?" ”
Huang Taiji tempted: "If it's not enough, you can go to live in a private house, now is a special period, as long as it is not the mansion of my Jurchen clan, you can all go and live, and the one who dares not to let it is Diao Min, do you know how to do it?" ”
This was to encourage them to plunder, and they were good at it, and the leaders of the tribes began to smile and be eager to try.
.............
This time in charge of recovering Jinzhou is the deputy general of the Guanning Army, the new chief soldier Cao Bianjiao, who is only twenty-three years old, is the former Guangning Iron Cavalry Thousand General, and later led his 1,000 Guanning Iron Cavalry to follow Cao Wenzhao to join Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army. After Cao Wenzhao was promoted to the chief general of the Guanning Army, he also came to the Guanning Army with him and was promoted to the deputy general of the Guanning Army, with the rank of general soldier.
Some people want to doubt that Cao Bianjiao and Cao Wenzhao are both surnamed Cao, and he was promoted to the chief soldier at such a young age, so he can't be any relative of Cao Wenzhao, right? He is really Cao Wenzhao's relative, and he is quite close, Cao Wenzhao's nephew. However, this general soldier was not promoted by Cao Wenzhao for personal gain, but by Emperor Chongzheng himself, and no one in the Guanning army was dissatisfied.
What's going on here? To say that the reason why this Cao Bianjiao is not very famous in history is mainly because of his bad luck, you must know that he was recognized as the "Three Armies of Brave Champions" in the Chongzhen Dynasty! At that time, he was also promoted to the general soldier at a young age, in the Songjin War that decided the fate of the Ming and Qing dynasties, he had led three hundred warriors to attack Huang Taiji's Chinese army at night, and killed and wounded Huang Taiji's personal guards, and almost captured Huang Taiji alive.
It's a pity that he died heroically in the end, but the main general Hong Chengchou at that time surrendered to the Qing army, so Zhu Cijiong had a little impression of him. As a traverser, Zhu Cijiong's principle of employing people is that if the historical evaluation is positive, then promote it vigorously; Where the historical evaluation is negative, then play along; Of course, there is another one that is ambiguous, and it can only be judged by himself.
The Guanning Army can be said to be a newly built legion, and his predecessor, the Guanning Iron Cavalry, has a total of about 10,000 people, which has not reached the size of the legion, and it is also subordinate to the Liaodong Army. The establishment of the Liaodong Army was 300,000, and there were 200,000 after the Dongjiang Army became an independent corps, and Zhu Cijiong simply split him into the Liaodong Army and the Guanning Army. Therefore, the Guanning Army is newly built, and most of the men and horses are separated from the Liaodong Army, and when the list of generals is reported, Cao Wenzhao only sets Cao Bianjiao as a general. As for the general soldiers, in addition to the original chief soldier Zhao Shujiao, he did not decide on the other, but asked the emperor to decide.
How else can Zhu Cijiong decide, find it from the list, but in the list, he has a little impression of Cao Bianjiao, so Cao Bianjiao changed from a general to a general with a brush.
Cao Bianjiao didn't know why the emperor promoted him to be the chief soldier, although there was no one in the Guanning army who was not convinced, but he still wanted to show well and prove his strength, this attack on Jinzhou was a good opportunity, and he naturally would not miss it.
Jinzhou is far away from Gaizhou, he arrived ten miles outside Jinzhou that night, the next day, he couldn't wait to take 20,000 soldiers to build siege equipment, just one day, a total of 100 ladders, 100 siege vehicles and 50 wells, on the third day, he began to attack the city!
Is he making meritorious service and commanding indiscriminately? Of course not, this was the first battle he commanded independently, and although he was earnest, he was not so indiscriminate in command, and he was certain that he would do so.
In fact, he is the first fierce general in the Ming army, Lu Xiangsheng, the king of Lu Yan, is fierce, but his kung fu is not as high as him; Zu Er was stunned and Zu Dabi was fierce, but his mind was not as good as him, and when the two were combined, he was the first. He hadn't had the opportunity to lead the troops alone before, so his bravery was not fully reflected, and this time his bravery was destined to shock the entire Ming Dynasty!
How can you build such a little siege equipment to attack the city? The answer was immediately revealed, and he, like Lu Xiangsheng, arranged the siege of the city, and stood in front of the first wave of siege teams, raising his sword and shouting: "Rush with me." ”
Then, he took the lead in rushing forward with a big knife, Lu Xiangsheng still had flintlock guns or artillery support at that time, he didn't have any support, and he didn't hide under the siege vehicle, so he rushed to the front alone!
A rain of arrows came down, and he swung his sword directly, and the arrows could not get close to him; The huge rolling stone rolled over, and he directly swung his knife to pick it, and the rolling stone could only roll past him; The huge sassaga wood smashed down, and he directly swung his knife and slashed it, and the sassanine wood was suddenly broken from it.
He rushed to the bottom of the city wall unscathed, and as soon as the ladder was set up, he immediately rushed straight up to the city wall as if he were walking on the ground. Then, the sword light began to shine on the city wall, and the miserable limbs flew wildly, if Lu Xiangsheng was like a ball of light when the sword light danced, then he was like a light dragon when the sword light danced, and the sword light was like a dragon, wandering back and forth on the city wall, and after a while, this section of the city wall was empty!
The Houjin soldiers on both sides looked in horror at Cao Bianjiao, who was dripping blood up and down, and no one dared to come over, at this time, the Ming army below climbed the city wall one after another, and Jinzhou City was captured like this!
This is his grasp, although he can't ban the use of mobile phones in the crowd, but the thousands of people on this city wall really can't do anything to him. It can be said that he can rush up with a ladder on his back, but it is really impossible to kill all the thousands of people on the city wall, Zu Er may do this, but he won't, he is not the kind of person who just thinks about fighting, what is tired and then runs back, and he will not do this kind of meaningless thing if he continues to kill the next day, so he built a day's siege equipment, led an army of 20,000, and captured Jinzhou City in one fell swoop.
When the news reached the city of Haizhou, even Zhu Cijiong was taken aback, no wonder this thing dared to take three hundred people to attack Huang Taiji's Chinese army at night, and he could also cut down all Huang Taiji's personal guards, and finally retreated in the rain of arrows of thousands of archers, he always thought that this historical record was a bit exaggerated, but he didn't expect this product to be so fierce!
With a little bit of it, he pointed out a super fierce future, Zhu Cijiong was naturally excited, he immediately called Chen Yutai to point out, and asked him to write an article, the title is "The First Fierce General of the Ming Dynasty", and immediately sent it to the capital for Wu Meicun to publish in the "Beijing News" the next day.
This Chen Yutai should have been the champion of Chongzheng in the fourth year of Xinweike, but who made him not as famous as Wu Meicun, so the positions of him and Wu Meicun were swapped by Zhu Cijiong and became the leader, and now Wu Meicun is busy with his chest and back, and the title of this bachelor naturally fell to Chen Yutai, but in addition to reading to Zhu Cijiong, he also has one more occupation, that is, to help Zhu Cijiong write articles.
Zhu Cijiong often encounters some things that are very beneficial to boosting morale and inspiring the people's hearts, but his pen, think about it, forget it, so it became him to talk about the general meaning, Chen Yutai wrote, which gave Chen Yutai an extra income, Wu Meicun knew that this was the emperor's meaning, how dare not publish it, an article is ten taels of silver, Zhu Cijiong naturally will not ask for it, and finally sent it to Chen Yutai.
Like in the past two days, he casually earned twenty taels, one "Dongjiang Heroes", one "The First Fierce General of the Ming Dynasty", this money doesn't come too fast, but for these topics raised by the emperor......
Dongjiang Xiongshi is just that, this is the first fierce general of the Ming Dynasty, are you not afraid that someone will find Cao Bianjiao to compete if you go out, if you win, it's okay, if you lose, wouldn't it be a slap in the face!
Not to mention, after this article was sent, there were really people looking for Cao Bianjiao to compete, of course, the general military generals only read the content of the article, weighed it, and found that they were really not so fierce, tsk, a person rushed to the city wall, how fierce it was! But one person feels that this is nothing, and insists on finding Cao Bianjiao to compete, this person doesn't need to guess, naturally it is Zu Dabi Zu Er's stunned.
No one saw the specific process of fighting, but it is said that the next day, Zu Er's stunned nose and swollen face appeared in front of his subordinates, and he never mentioned that he was going to compete with Cao Bianjiao.
