1079 Glory
The victory in the Battle of Tiger Skin Post City affected the battle in Liaoyang. Amin, who originally wanted to rely on the strong city of Liaoyang, to resist stubbornly, finally failed to do so. The morale of the entire Manchu army had collapsed. In the face of the general trend, Amin is powerless.
Just like when the city was strong, they often used the method of besieging the city to defeat the reinforcements who rushed to the rescue, thus damaging the morale of the besieged soldiers, and generally speaking, the final result was surrender.
The Manchu soldiers in Liaoyang were not an army armed with revolutionary ideas in later generations, and it would be hell if they could still have the morale to fight again when there were no reinforcements, no escape, and no ammunition and food!
The news of the victory was transmitted to Emperor Chongzhen through the chat group. So, a decree was handed down, and Lu Xiangsheng led the meritorious army to Hupi Post overnight. Now that there is no Manchu Qing in the surrounding area, the army will be on the march day and night, and nothing will happen.
In the middle of the night, the army led by Lu Xiangsheng arrived at the Tiger Skin Station. A long fire dragon, with no end in sight. Although no one spoke, the sound of more than 10,000 people gathered together was still a bit loud.
However, no one was worried about bombing the camp. Nowadays, there are no enemies here, and the sound outside is like sleeping in the old home, and there are people next door who are noisy and do not worry that the enemy will steal the camp.
On the side of Tiger Skin Post City, Emperor Chongzhen had already explained in advance that there was a simple military tent, which could be provided to the newly arrived army to take a temporary rest.
Early the next morning, a trace of fish belly white was revealed in the east, and the horn sounded, and all the Ming army camps in Hupiyi City were like a stone suddenly thrown into the water surface calmly, and it was as if it was suddenly boiling, and the quiet Hupiyi area became very lively all of a sudden.
The Dongjiang Army and the Guan Ning Army had actually only slept for about two hours, and they had walked so far, so it stands to reason that they should be more sleepy and disgusted by getting up so early.
However, these reasonable things have not been seen in them at all. Every soldier in the Dongjiang Army and the Guanning Army was beaming with joy and full of energy, and there was no trace of fatigue at all.
At the head of the north gate of the Tiger Skin Post City, Emperor Chongzhen is here. All the armies, including the Dongjiang Army, the Guanning Army, the New Army, and the Naturalized Army, were all lined up in front of the city, and there was no end in sight.
However, at this time, everyone was very excited, and one by one they held their heads high, looking at the young man at the head of the city, waiting for the emperor's will.
Emperor Chongzhen looked at the expectant faces, and there was no nonsense, just waved his hand and shouted: "Go, goal, Shenyang!" ”
It was just a short six words, and it immediately attracted a response like a tsunami, and the word "obey the order" resounded in the sky above the Tiger Skin Post City, and even spread to the mountains in the distance, and it seemed that there was a response back.
Shenyang, that's the puppet capital of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Originally, I thought that there would be no chance to set foot in this city. But now, he is about to step into Shenyang City as a winner! This is definitely what all Ming soldiers dream of. There are even many Ming soldiers who want to set foot on the city of Shenyang in their dreams!
I have to say that the emperor is very sympathetic to the military situation and understands the thoughts of every soldier, so he will make this will only after gathering all the troops to conquer Liao.
With this decree of Emperor Chongzhen, the army turned around and marched north in order. At the same time, the prestige of Emperor Chongzhen reached unprecedented heights in these armies. His compassion has earned him countless achievement points. It can be said that this army of Liao, no matter which military region, as long as the emperor gives an order, will definitely go to the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and their brows will not wrinkle, because they believe in their emperor, and they believe in their emperor!
This time the efficiency of the march was very high, and the speed of the infantry in the Guanning Army and the Dongjiang Army even kept up with the speed of the new army. Sixty miles away, when the sky was still bright, we reached our destination.
When Huang Taiji went on the expedition, he took away almost all the people who could fight and go into battle. At this time, Shenyang City was almost an undefended city. The news was cut off by the naturalized army, and the side of Shenyang City has not known the situation on the front line.
When the overwhelming Ming army appeared outside the city of Shenyang, it was as if under the sky, on the land of Liaodong, all of them were a sea of red, and the Manchu Qing garrison on the head of the city completely collapsed.
Some people, in despair, jumped off the city on the spot to commit suicide, tragically, they didn't die, but they were disabled, and they cried under the city and called their mother; Some people, frightened and urinating, sit on the head of the city, stunned, or muttering to themselves, they are completely stupid and crazy! Some people threw away their weapons and ran madly down the city, hiding in the city, trying to find a hiding place where the Ming army could not find it......
At this time, no one thought about defending in Shenyang City. In fact, as long as people are normal, it is impossible for them to think about defending anymore, and they can't defend it.
Where the imperial drive of the Liao army was, Emperor Chongzhen looked at the tall Shenyang City in the distance and shouted: "Where is Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Denglai?" ”
When Lu Xiangsheng on the side heard this, he immediately stepped forward, turned over and dismounted, and came to the emperor and played: "Weichen is here!" ”
Emperor Chongzhen looked at him, with a smile on his face, and said loudly: "The hussar battalion of the Qing Dynasty is the vanguard of the army, and the gate of Shenyang has been opened for me!" ”
Attacking tall and fortified cities with cavalry is an order that will be sprayed to death. However, at this time, Lu Xiangsheng was overjoyed.
This will of the emperor also means that the first person to set foot in Shenyang City will be the hussar battalion led by him! This honor is the supreme glory of the soldiers, and it is the glory that all the soldiers in the army of Liao are most eager for.
Lu Xiangsheng also thought that this glory would belong to the new army, the new army formed and trained by the emperor himself. Now, the emperor clearly ordered his general and let him be the first to enter Shenyang City!
Even Lu Xiangsheng, who was born as a Jinshi and has been a feudal official for many years, couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and he was embarrassed for a while. ”
"Go, the hussar camp has been born and died all these years, you deserve it!" Emperor Chongzhen smiled and waved his hand.
This time, Lu Xiangsheng did not hesitate any longer, took a few steps back, and after being a little far away from the emperor, he immediately turned around, turned over his horse vigorously, came to the hussar camp, looked at his men, puffed up his breath, and shouted: "Hussar camp, take Shenyang with this official, and welcome the holy car!" ”
After a moment's pause, the soldiers of the hussar battalion immediately roared loudly, as if they wanted to shout out all the excitement in their hearts together: "Obey! ”
Emperor Chongzhen noticed that Cao Bianjiao and the others watched the hussar battalion break away from the queue, go straight to the tall Shenyang City in the distance, and their faces were full of envy, and they couldn't help but shake their heads and smile.
In the battle against the captives, there were mainly three armies, namely the Guanning Army, the New Army and the Dongjiang Army. To say that the longest time to fight against the captives, of course, is the Guanning army; However, if you want to say that the conditions are the most difficult, it belongs to the Dongjiang Army. However, the glory of the first to enter Shenyang City is, of course, to belong to the meritorious army. Among them, one of the Guanning armies was on the defensive, and although it also had merits, it was not as good as the other two armies.
In recent years, the Dongjiang Army, especially the hussar battalion led by Lu Xiangsheng, has fought in the south and north on the land of Liaodong, and even on the Korean side, and has brought guerrilla warfare into full play.
The third army, that is, the New Army, was established for the shortest time, but it was the most capable of fighting, and it was the main force of the field war between the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it was the Manchu Qing who dared to face the Manchu Dynasty in its heyday. Not to mention the battle of Jinpu Town, the battle of Gaizhou, the imperial Taiji who was personally recruited by the emperor was beaten back to the ground, and at the same time, the military might of the Ming Dynasty was also played, causing the alliance between the Manchu Qing and the eastern Mongolia to collapse. There are also the seizures of Haizhou, Anshan Post Fort, etc., and even scout battles or something, all of which prove that without the new army, it is impossible to defeat the Manchu army so quickly.
Emperor Chongzhen gave the glory of destroying the Manchu Emperor to the new army, and he naturally would not favor one over the other, and then give the glory of the first to set foot in Shenyang City to the new army. There is a clear distinction between rewards and punishments, this is the principle.
When the army approached the city, it was already possible to see the city of Shenyang, a big flag was erected, and the Ming national flag was fluttering at the head of Shenyang for the first time. Looking at this scene, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly remembered a very classic scene in later generations, that is, the scene where several people held up a flag together. It's a pity, if Lu Xiangsheng knew, he could also take a photo like this, and the copyright of this action should belong to Daming!
He was thinking that Lu Xiangsheng had already hurriedly greeted the door, and in the envious eyes of everyone, he played to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, Weichen has taken Shenyang and welcomes the saint into the city!" ”
Emperor Chongzhen heard this, and was about to nod his head, when suddenly, Hai Lanzhu on the side said loudly: "Your Majesty, the naturalized Li Guosuo has just taken Fushun!" ”
In 1384, the Ming Dynasty built Fushun City at the foot of Gaoer Mountain, and Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, gave "Fushun Frontier, Shun Guide the People", and "Fushun" was derived from this. And here, it is the place where the wild boar skin is built and called Khan, and it is the birthplace of the so-called dragon vein in the Manchu Qing Dynasty. In this place, no matter how much Huang Taiji deploys troops, there are still some people left.
Fushun is less than a hundred miles away from Shenyang, and before Hong Chengchou led the army to surround Hupiyi City, among several generals under him, Li Guo received the order to occupy Fushun as soon as possible, because the holy car still has to pass. Another general, Wu Sangui, received another task and did not act with Li Guo.
At this time, Emperor Chongzhen heard that Fushun had been taken, so he nodded to indicate that he knew, and then issued an order that the army enter the city.
Soon, the city of Shenyang was full of soldiers wearing red military uniforms of the Ming Dynasty. The streets of the city were also lined with soldiers. There were also teams of Ming soldiers who searched for the remnants of the Manchu Qing army from house to house. Shenyang City, which was originally lifeless, suddenly became lively again.
Emperor Chongzhen stood at the head of the city at this time, looking at the capital of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he couldn't help but shake his head, and he didn't know how wise and martial the emperor Taiji was.
In fact, when he thought so, he also felt a little bit standing and talking without backache. If it weren't for the fact that he crossed over and grabbed the Manchu Qing Dynasty's seven-inch fight, Shenyang City would not have been so dilapidated! After starving for several years in a row, a large number of people moved to North Korea, and it is strange that this Shenyang city can still be better!
At this point, Hai Lanzhu standing next to him was more touched. In the heyday of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, she also came to Shenyang City. At that time, when she came from the grassland, she felt that Shenyang was really a prosperous city. Although after entering the pass and opening his eyes, he did not have this understanding. But at that time, Shenyang was at least relatively prosperous. However, as far as she could see, it was really difficult for her to connect with the previous Shenyang City.
This is the fate of the Ming enemy!
On this night, Emperor Chongzhen did not live in the palace of Huang Taiji. It's not about security, but the so-called palace of Huang Taiji, which is really out of his eyes. It's better to live in the big tent of the Chinese army and continue to experience military life.
Early the next morning, Emperor Chongzhen's decree was issued again, and this time, it was Hong Chengchou's turn to be busy. His more than 10,000 cavalry began to scatter, staking horses on the land of Liaodong, announcing to the entire Liaodong that the Ming Dynasty had recovered Liaodong!
Although Liaodong seems to be very large, after so many years of scourge of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it has long been unpopular, and it is really not to say that there are no people for thousands of miles. Hong Chengchou's naturalized army only needs to take a few cities, which is basically the same.
After Hong Chengchou left, the reserve officials that Emperor Chongzhen brought with him, that is, those who raised people and showed talents, began to get busy. They want to become magistrates in Liaodong, sort out the land household registration information preserved in Shenyang City, and so on, which can be regarded as a preliminary familiarity with Liaodong affairs.
After arranging these things, Emperor Chongzhen took part of the new army, part of the Guanning army and part of the Dongjiang army to take control of Fushun.
In later generations, Fushun was a famous coal capital, but Emperor Chongzhen did not come for this; The so-called Manchu Longxing land, Emperor Chongzhen was not interested in checking and playing. He came to Fushun only as a temporary place to stay. His goal is not in Lushun.
After resting in Fushun for a day, Emperor Chongzhen set off again and led the army to the north with his captives. This time, Li Guo also went with him. He represents the naturalized army and the armies of Shaanxi and Shanxi.
After walking sixty miles, that is, a day's journey, we are almost at our destination.
On this night, the army seemed a little abnormal, and there was no longer the festive atmosphere after the elimination of the Manchus. Every soldier is a little serious and silent. Everyone, silently waiting for tomorrow.
