1089 The Ming army is coming
In this era, the concept of anti-landing operations does not exist at all. Even if there are examples of preventing pirate invasion in peacetime, they are far from being comparable to the large-scale landing of regular troops. Therefore, it is not to blame that those Korean soldiers fled in fright as soon as they saw the mighty Ming army fleet on the sea.
Among the troops stationed at Incheon, there were naturally Manchu soldiers, about 500 people. These Manchu soldiers were stationed here to deter those Korean pirates and thieves, which was no problem, but when they saw the dense Ming army disembarking from the ship, their behavior was similar to that of the Korean soldiers.
So, on the way to Seoul, there were thousands of people, without any rules and regulations, all running in races.
Among them, there are Korean soldiers wearing hats, and there are also Manchu soldiers with pointed heads, all of whom are running with their feet spread. Those who lagged behind, whoever they were, began to throw away their armor as they ran, losing weight, trying to overtake their companions.
The Manchu Qing and Korean soldiers, at this time, you have me, I have you, and they are thinking about escaping Inchon as soon as possible.
If in the past, the Korean soldiers had the courage to rush the way with the Manchu adults, and if it was possible, they would try to avoid it, so as not to be sent in vain; If the Manchu soldiers had been in the past, they would never have allowed the North Korean soldiers to come and grab the road with them, let alone tolerate eating the ashes of the North Korean soldiers.
However, at this time, none of them cared about these, and they all ran in harmony. It's like when disaster comes, whether it's tigers, lions, rabbits and sheep, all of them have become brothers and sisters, and they fled together.
On both sides of the road, there are patches of grain fields.
In the fields, groups of North Korean soldiers were patrolling, and even North Korean officials were shouting: "Your Highness strictly decrees that before the grain is harvested, there must be no loss, otherwise, if something happens to this official, you sluts will not be able to escape." Cheer up, be careful, and don't guard your own theft......"
"My lord, there's movement!" Some soldiers hurriedly reminded.
The movement was indeed a bit loud, and the sound of horses' hooves rumbled out from the end of the line of sight.
"What are you looking at, do you want to be lazy?" The North Korean official turned his head and glanced at it, and shouted loudly: "The military master of the Great Qing Dynasty is here, give the official a spiritual point, otherwise be careful with your skin ......"
"My lord, it doesn't seem right!" A soldier reminded again.
The North Korean officials didn't even look at it, and shouted: "What's wrong, only the Qing Dynasty military master has a horse here, and he has been careful......"
"No, my lord, it's really wrong, my lord will see for himself!"
When the North Korean officials saw that all of their men had surprised expressions on their faces, they turned their heads curiously, only to see dozens of fast horses galloping on the official road. He was not wrong, the people who rode the horses were indeed the Qing military masters, but the problem was that these Qing military masters were all panicked, didn't look at them, and galloped past......
"Adult, how do you feel about the villain...... How does it feel a bit like a defeated soldier? ”
They were all familiar with the situation of the Manchu military masters who galloped past just now, and they all felt that they couldn't be wrong.
"Throw away your armor?" Such a thought also flashed through the minds of the North Korean officials.
But they are confused, in the past few years, the Qing Dynasty military masters have been uncles one by one, claiming to be the king and hegemon in the land of North Korea, and fighting the thieves can only do something secretly, how can this happen now?
"It's coming from Incheon, it's not going to be a tsunami, is it?" Speculation has been raised.
However, as soon as his words fell, someone suddenly lost his voice and shouted, "Could it be the Heavenly Army?" ”
The army of the Celestial Empire, that is, the Ming Army, is called the Celestial Army on the Korean side.
This shout immediately startled everyone.
At this moment, I saw the dust billowing in the distance of the official road, and a spectacular scene appeared.
In their stunned eyes, they got the news that when countless celestial troops landed at Incheon, these people also scattered in a hurry and ran away. Of course, there were also soldiers who did not run to Seoul with joy on their faces, but scattered in all directions.
If someone can pay attention to it at this time, they will also find the existing Korean soldiers scattered in the fields, waving their waist knives and the like, taking the opportunity to collect some food.
The news that the Ming army had landed at Inchon and had come to attack Seoul, although more and more soldiers scattered and fled, spread at a very fast speed in a short period of time.
In the palace of Seoul, Dolgon was holding a banquet at this time, and in addition to Duoduo and Azig, there were also their high-ranking generals and Gwanghae-kun and his high-ranking officials.
For them, it was rare for Dolgon to set up a feast, and as Dolgon, no one dared not come. Although it is not as rich and lively as I remember, compared to the past few years, this banquet is very good. Even in the middle of the venue, there were Manchurian women dancing.
Dolgon, who was now seated on the throne, clapped his hands and waved his hands again to signal the dancers to stand down, and he stood up with his glass and said with a smile: "From tomorrow onwards, the grain will be harvested." I wish you a bumper harvest! ”
When the others saw it, they immediately followed suit, holding their glasses to celebrate tomorrow's harvest.
"Thanks to the master's wisdom, the minions will never have to go hungry in the future!" The Manchu leader with a white flag happily complimented.
"Under the rule of His Highness, our DPRK will surely prosper and forge ahead into the future!" On behalf of North Korean officials, Oh Da-ji took the lead in slapping the sycophants.
……
Listening to these flattering Dolgon's words, Duoduo felt a little enthusiastic, and it was difficult to restrain himself from drinking the wine in the cup, and then patted his chest and said with a smile: "We have gathered all the northern men and horses in Pyongyang, and we can always resist the Ming army for a while, and when the grain is harvested, my Qing warriors can eat and drink to their heart's content. ”
"Yes, Lord Belle is right, in the past few years, it's not that our combat strength is not good, it's all because there is no food and grass, otherwise, where will it be Minggou's turn to be arrogant?" While he was happy to drink, the Manchu Qing leader with a white flag echoed loudly.
The people with the white flag were not far behind, and said loudly: "Master, the slave is willing to be the vanguard and go back to Liaodong!" ”
"That's right, go back to Liaodong!"
"Kill back to Liaodong!"
“……”
At this time, the fall of Liaodong was confirmed in the upper echelons of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. They couldn't believe that Liaodong was dying so quickly, and they discussed it privately, thinking that there was still no food to make trouble. Therefore, now that they are about to have food, this confidence has come up again.
When Duoduo heard this, his heart suddenly moved, and he immediately threw his wine glass on the table, strode to the middle of the field, and then said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, listen to me!" ”
No one dared not give him face, and at the same time, they were all curious, and they all wanted to know what he wanted to say with such a formation? Even Dolgon, too, was a little curious.
Seeing that the scene was quiet, Duoduo clenched his fists and said loudly to Dolgon: "The country cannot be without a king for a day, brother, you are the emperor's brother, and you are the rightful lord of the Qing Dynasty." The younger brother implored His Royal Highness to ascend the throne as the emperor, and encouraged the morale of my Qing Dynasty, and the Ming army dared to attack, and it would be defeated! ”
If there is food to eat, this morale can be improved a lot, and then there is an emperor in the Qing Dynasty, which will definitely improve morale, which is indeed a point that can be used to resist the Ming army.
Instead of refusing right away, Dorgon pondered this time. As soon as the others saw it, they immediately followed suit, and they all advised Dorgon to ascend the throne and become emperor!
"Your Highness, what Lord Belle said is extremely true, the country cannot be without a king for a day!"
"His Royal Highness's ascension to the throne is justifiable, in accordance with the will of heaven, and in the hearts of the people!"
“……”
Even the muddy Guanghai-kun joined the ranks. For him, it was better for Dorgon to ascend the throne as emperor than the barbaric Duoduo and the brainless Azig.
All of a sudden, the call in the palace to support Dolgon's ascension to the throne reached a climax.
The scene was so enthusiastic that even the always calm Dolgon was moved. He stood up, glanced at the eager faces in front of him, thought about it, and felt that no matter whether he ascended the throne or not, the Ming army had finally come to attack Korea. In this case, ascending the throne and becoming emperor actually does not have many scruples, and it can also greatly boost the morale of the Qing soldiers.
Thinking so, he stretched out his hand to signal, and suddenly, the hall immediately fell silent. Everyone stared at Dorgon with a look of anticipation in their eyes. If Dorgon ascends the throne and becomes emperor, they will all have merit, and the reward will definitely be indispensable.
Dolgon had already made up his mind, took a deep breath, and was about to speak, when suddenly there was a lot of movement outside, and the noise was very loud.
Suddenly, the movement from outside broke the solemn and exciting atmosphere that was accumulating in the hall. Before Dorgon could say anything, he was stuck in his throat.
When Dorgon turned his head to look out, he couldn't help but be annoyed, and he turned away, and shouted, "Which rabbit cub is impatient!" ”
Other people are also annoyed, even if there is a big matter, don't bother at this time! They all turned their heads and looked outside, and their faces were a little unsightly.
What they didn't expect was that the noise outside was getting louder and louder, and then a Qing general almost crawled around the wall and rushed towards the hall.
Everyone in the palace basically recognized this person as the head of the palace guards, responsible for the guards at the palace gate. He was so panicked, couldn't it be really a big deal?
Before they could think of anything, the commander of the guards rushed into the main hall, but due to panic, when he entered the temple gate, he tripped over the threshold and pounced directly, almost throwing himself into the ground.
Seeing this, Dolgon sighed in his heart, faintly feeling bad, and regardless of his majesty, he strode forward and asked sharply, "What happened?" ”
He believed that if it weren't for the big thing, this cronie of his would not have been so panicked!
The man fell to the ground, and he didn't care, but he lay on his stomach, and said in a frightened and hurried voice, "Master...... Master, Ming Army...... The Ming army is coming......"
"What?" When Duoduo heard this, he immediately shouted and asked, "The defenders of Pyongyang are vulnerable again, and they have not blocked the Ming army?" ”
Judging from the previous military intelligence report, at this time, the Ming army passing through the Yalu River from Liaodong should have gone to the Pyongyang area. The plan on the side of Seoul is to use the northern army to resist the Ming army for a few days with the help of the big city of Pyongyang! For this reason, preparations for defense began early in the morning, and it stands to reason that it is impossible to be taken down by the Ming army.
Hearing Duoduo's questioning, these people present were basically taken aback, and they all thought in their hearts, this must be the case, otherwise it would be impossible to panic like this!
However, as soon as they thought of this, they heard the commander of the guard, who was lying on the ground, reply in a panic, "No...... No, the Ming army landed at Incheon Metropolitan Protectorate and came from the sea in Incheon......"
"What?" Dolgon was shocked when he heard this, stepped forward and pulled up the collar of his cronies, and asked sharply, "The Ming army has landed from Incheon?" How many, what army, and what is the specific? ”
Inchon is less than fifty miles from Seoul, and the march of the army is only a day's journey. The Ming army actually came from the sea and landed in this place, this is simply a sharp knife, and it was inserted into the heart of the Qing Dynasty at once!
Everyone in the hall was frightened by this news, and even a few of them were so frightened that they sat down on the ground. Among them, there is Gwanghae-kun.
"According to the report of the defenders of Incheon who fled back, it means that the army is at least 10,000 people, and under the banner of the Ming New Army!" The commander of the guards did not dare to look into Dorgon's eyes, looked down and replied, "The sea is full of ships of the Ming army, I don't know how many are behind!" ”
If Dolgon was given a choice, the enemy he was least willing to choose would be the new army of the Ming Kingdom. This army, although he has not dealt with it directly, but Duoduo was ambushed by this new army in Jinpu Town, Gaizhou, Liaodong, Huang Taiji drove his own expedition, and was defeated by the new army. Later, he died at the hands of this new army in the Tiger Skin Station. It can be said that this new army is the most powerful army of the Ming Kingdom, and there is no one.
Therefore, when Dolgon heard this, his hand could no longer grasp the collar of the guard, and when he let go, he muttered to himself, "Impossible, this impossible! How could the New Army suddenly land at Incheon? ”
In the main hall, quietly, everyone's faces were pale, and they couldn't believe the facts in front of them.
Suddenly, an old voice said with despair: "Lone knows, Lone knows, Ming Jun is Ming Xiu Plank Road Darkness Chen Cang, yes, it must be so, Ming Xiu Plank Road Darkness Chen Cang ......"
In terms of the level of Chinese, the Korean monarchs and ministers threw off the Manchu Qing slave chiefs a few streets, so Gwanghaejun's cultural allusions to the Central Plains were also easily glued, and he got a conclusion with one mouth.
When everyone heard this, they all came back to their senses, and Duoduo roared angrily: "No wonder Minggou has been procrastinating, it turned out to be to paralyze us, and we thought that Pyongyang could stop Minggou for a while!" Those bright dogs, it's so cunning! ”
