Section 31 Anshan Station (1)
Anshan Post Fort, the ninth son of the Wise Khan, Babutai, is here to guard, he is born to the concubine of the old Khan, and belongs to the role of standing aside among the children and grandchildren of the old Khan, which is far inferior to Abatai, and only now has the title of a Fengguo general, and the conquest of Mongolia and the Ming Kingdom is generally not his business, and only when conquest of Varkha and Huerha such poor places will everyone think of him.
In this expedition to the west, he stayed at home as usual, and was kicked by Lao Khan to the small place of Anshan Yibao to defend - this is more in line with his identity, Shenyang and Liaoyang are not his turn in big places, but Babutai has long been used to it, and he has no ambitions, just do it honestly.
Anshan post fort is a pass of the Great Wall of Liaodong built by the Hongwu year of the Ming Kingdom, sandwiched between the east and west Anshan, east of the Anshan River, is the main road of Liaoyang and other places leading to southern Liaoning outside the pass, the worse the ability of the Ming State to fight, the better the ability to repair the city and build the fort, the small Anshan post castle is not big, but after the renovation and reinforcement of the Ming Kingdom over the years, it is also strong and strong, tall and majestic, the wall of the fort is more than three zhang high and there is no large siege equipment don't want to break through.
Jin Guo is stained with the light of the Ming Kingdom, such a strong and tall castle, as long as they close the gate, others will not want to come in, and it is the most suitable to deal with Mao Wenlong's poor ghost Ming army, who let them have to repair this broken place to be unbreakable.
As soon as Babutai arrived at Anshan Station, he transferred the Zhushen outside the fort into the fort along with grain and valuable things, he knew that Mao Wenlong was coming sooner or later, so he simply closed the gate and started his life comfortably - as long as there were people in the fort who had food, no one was afraid of coming, and after these days, when the old Khan came back with the army, the errand would be completed.
Mao Wenlong's people really came, first sporadically, then in groups, and then they tossed outside the fort.
The two sides have been fighting for almost five years, and they all know each other's virtues, as long as the Jin Army feels that Mao Wenlong is coming, it must be men, women, and children who take valuable belongings to hide in the city, and Mao Wenlong definitely burned everything that can be burned outside the city, and everything that can be demolished is demolished, and of course what can be taken away will not be let go. No matter how many such so-called
"Ming Army", it won't be long before Mao Wenlong came out alive again to make trouble. Babutai has been waiting on the fort wall, Zhu Shen bannermen, strong women each with knives, spears, bows and arrows to the city to defend the fort, the Han soldiers in the fort were all driven to the city, the old Zhu Shen with Aha was busy boiling water and cooking, everyone was waiting for the Ming army to attack the city - this time the Ming army had thousands of people, and also brought a ladder, everyone said that the army had bad intentions this time, or it was better to guard against it.
Babutai was tortured by the Ming army to cry and laugh, he was still a little nervous when he first heard the news that a large number of Ming troops were coming, he had a lot of old people and women here, but there were few young and strong, if the Ming army played with him, he couldn't hold out for long, and the urgent report to Shenyang had already been sent, but when the reinforcements could arrive, who said clearly.
Babutai was frightened, so he simply moved the roll of bedding to the city tower, and made up his mind that if the Ming army did not retreat, he would live and die in this city.
The Ming army made the attack vigorous, beating gongs and drums, blowing and singing, and the surrounding Han people Nikan was obviously also pulled, across an Anshan River crowded, people came and went, the shouts were higher and higher, Babutai's face was frightened white, and the bannermen in the city were also a little afraid, but a group of women kept cheering up their men.
The Ming army took the people across the Anshan River with great fanfare, surrounded the Anshan Post Fort, and constantly someone bravely walked to the front of the fort and scolded the city, and some people danced a big knife in front of the fort, the most hateful thing is that a group of people who blow suona around the city and blow indiscriminately, as if to do funerals for the people in the city, the ladder of the Ming army has several pairs, and it was carried out early, and a few people who looked like officers of the Ming army looked at the high wall in front of them and discussed for a while, and then threw the ladder there and no one cared about it.
The Ming army tossed and didn't play, Babutai couldn't stand it anymore, so he took a strip of cloth and stuffed his ears to take a nap.
Sleeping until the afternoon, the bannerman who defended the city woke up Babutai, saying that the long-awaited siege had finally begun, Babutai rushed to the wall with an arrow step, he was almost angry, a large group of Ming troops wearing all kinds of clothes, to be precise, the common people, under the leadership of several armored Ming troops, Babutai was surprised: "Are they attacking the city?" With no armor and no ladders, are you going to hit the city wall with your head? Pointing to the crowd, he said, "They have a lot of hoes, so they probably want to dig the city." "Babutai is furious, don't you know how strong the castle you built yourself is, do you have such a fool of the common people to fight?
Babutai is going to teach the Ming army a lesson, it is too wasteful to use precious arrows against these rabble, he asked Aha to take out the firearms and small cannons captured from the Ming army in Liaodong, these things are usually not cared for, and it is a pity to throw them in the warehouse, doesn't the Ming army like to defend the city with firearms?
Let's try it too. Aha and the Han army, who knew firearms, were transferred by Babutai and asked them to use firearms to fight the Ming army under the city, these guys trembled and loaded the firearms first, and carefully fixed the firearms on the battlements, lit the firerope and ran away, the guns quickly crackled into a piece, and the men and women in the city were so frightened that they hid, the so-called under the city
The "Ming army" was even more chaotic, and soon dispersed in a hurry, and hoes and crowbars were thrown everywhere. The attack of the Ming army ended in a chaotic manner, the attack and defense of both sides were very friendly and peaceful, and basically no one died, but the Ming army, which was obviously outnumbered, was very unwilling, and dozens of people who were tied up by the flowers were pushed to the front of the fort, and the Ming army officers angrily ordered these people to kneel down, and shouted at the stunned Zhushen in the city, these people are traitors and lackeys who work hard for you to build slaves, and they are the scum of the Ming Dynasty who have forgotten their ancestors.
Zhu Shen in the city looked at the kneeling people below and discussed, these people are all local croppers in their hometowns, some are the grain chiefs of the village, some are the family members of the Han army, some are nothing, and they don't usually do anything, how did they become traitors?
Everyone doesn't know when these people have taken refuge in them, and they don't think that these people have sold their lives to them, everyone thinks that eighty percent of them are crazy in the Ming army, and they don't have the ability to attack the city, so they kill their own people to vent their anger, and some people speculate that most of the dozens of people kneeling in the city are honest people in the village, and their families have some savings, and they must be lazy people in the village who colluded with the Ming army to seek other people's property, so they want to kill people.
Bursts of rage
"Long live the Ming Emperor!" 、
"The Ming army is mighty!" 、
"Severely punish traitors and traitors!" The shouts went straight to the sky, the officers of the Ming army signaled everyone to be quiet, and then dragged the traitors they caught in turn in front of the people, and soon there were people who looked like people stepped forward, and they were indignant to expose the crimes of the traitors kneeling on the ground, and some even said that they were in tears, and the crowd continued to shout and shout to kill, and every time they accused a traitor of a crime, the officers had to ask the people whether they should kill this person, and the people raised their arms and shouted without exception
"Kill!" , After a while, dozens of traitors were beheaded on the spot, dozens of heads were quickly hung on long poles and raised high, and the Ming army led the people around the fort wall and shouted loudly,
"Down with Jiannu",
"Kill all the slaves",
"Recovering Liaodong" ....... The slogans were louder and louder, and Babutai and Zhushen looked at each other and were at a loss, killing these people was their business, and it was these thousands of people who screamed like crazy that people couldn't stand it.
Babutai smiled helplessly, let's make trouble, no matter how fierce it is, it can't climb the city, and it is so indiscriminate, the Han soldiers in the fort are also honest and obedient.
Babutai calculated the days, today is the fourth day of the fifth month, and the urgent report has been sent out for four days, maybe the reinforcements will arrive in these two days, but unfortunately he only has less than two Niu Lu bannermen in his hands, otherwise, he will not need reinforcements, and he will be able to clean them up.
The Ming army retreated to the east bank of the Anshan River until night, and Babutai finally had an empty space to sleep for a while. In the second half of the night, Aha woke him up and excitedly told him that the reinforcements had arrived, and it was the red-armored Bayara soldiers with two yellow flags, who were waiting under the city.
Babutai got up with a bone, and looked down at the battlements, but he was very happy, and sure enough, it was the man of the two yellow flags, he was the minister of the Zhenghuang Banner, and many of the people in the city knew him, and the two guards of Subai and Erlu, who were the leader, were often seen in the palace of the Great Khan, and he immediately ordered the gate of the fort to be opened.
Li Yu and Su Baide set off immediately after the order, and after crossing the Liao River, they traveled day and night all the way to Liaoyang.
Su Bai has been under a lot of mental pressure during this period of time, and the people of the two yellow flags always compare him with Li Yu, who is also a guard next to Lao Khan, and is about the same age, why is the gap so big, Erlu has only been a guard for a few months, and his official rank is lower than Su Bai - Su Bai is a second-class guard, and his background is even worse than Su Bai - Su Bai is the younger brother of Wu Bai, the minister of the three armies of Yongguan, although Ama Wuli Kan has died, but when he is alive, he is a famous general in the Eight Banners, and he once led dozens of horses to ride Duzhen South Road in the Battle of Salhu, Watching the army of Li Rubai of the Ming Kingdom, at the end of the year, he chased Li Rubai for tens of thousands of people and beheaded dozens of levels.
The two of them each took two teams to serve in the Zhengbai Banner together, and together they intercepted and killed Nanuk, and the two teams of Subabay died more than 30 people, and they got the heads of more than 100 Bahraini soldiers, and Erlu only died ten people, and the heads they got were not less than him, and they slaughtered Nanuk, and then they couldn't compare, Erlu took 200 people to chase and kill the Mongols for hundreds of miles, destroyed one Chahar Wanhu, beheaded nearly 100 of Chahar Baya Rakonot's cavalry, and collected the Mongolian population and livestock, and was given the name Baturu by the Great Khan. And Subai's western expedition was almost lackluster except for assisting in the killing of Nanuk.
Su Bai admires Erlu, who is a few years younger than him, but he also wants to get ahead! This rescue of Anshan Station, he held back enough strength to make meritorious contributions, all the way rushed to the front of the play wildly, forcing Li Yu to run along, the two only took a day and a night to rush to Anshan Post Fort, but people and horses are tired enough, as soon as they enter the fort, they staggered to the ground, Babutai knew that these people were tired, and immediately arranged to boil water for cooking, and told Li Yu and Su Bai that this place is guarded firmly, you can rest assured, when you can slow down, we will fight.
After dawn, the Ming army came again and continued to make trouble, but Babutai was not afraid at all, he counted his men and waited for his cavalry.
After lunch at noon, Li Yu and Su Bai came, and asked Babutai how to fight. Babutai did not hesitate to decide to go out of the city to face the battle, he calculated, the bannermen in the fort can make up more than 300 people, Aha can also make up more than 200 people, and there are 200 Han soldiers, about 800 people can fight, plus the reinforcement of 200 elite cavalry, 1,000 people to fight this rabble is enough, Anshan Post Fort will be handed over to the old man and women to guard.
Babutai said that he would do it, and with his own seven or eight hundred people who had been scraped together, he opened the fort gate and rushed out, and the Ming army did not expect that the other party really dared to go out of the city, and fled to the east of the river in a chaotic manner.
Babutai crossed the river with men in pursuit - this year's drought and no rain the river was very shallow, and it was easy to wade across the river.
As soon as the Jin army crossed the river, they saw that the Ming army had lined up and waited, and the Ming army that escaped across the river quickly joined their battle array, the Ming army was a little chaotic, but there were a lot of people, there were four or five thousand people in a mess, Babutai had long expected the Ming army's hand, it was nothing more than to lure the Jin army out of the fort to eliminate, but there was an iron horse in his hand, Babutai was not afraid at all, and immediately called his own people to also set up a battle formation to face the battle.
The Ming army saw that Babutai was finally out of the city, no longer wasting time, while the Jin army had just crossed the river and was still a little chaotic, the officers shouted loudly and their subordinates launched an attack, the untidy soldiers held a variety of weapons against the wooden planks and rushed upward, the Ming soldiers were numerous, and they were also very imposing, but this could not scare Babutai, it was not the first time he fought with the soldiers of Dongjiang Town, the dense array of the Jin army, the archers sprinkled a wave of arrows to the Ming army, and the Ming army fell down with a row of arrows, and they had almost no armor, The rudimentary planks could not stop the raindrops of arrows, and Babutai also found some good archers who specialized in shooting armor of the Ming army, these people may be the officers' family members, shoot these people to death, and the others will be easy to deal with.
Babutai has few people, obviously unable to stop the attack of the Ming army, the Ming army gradually approached the Jin army, their archers also sparsely threw arrows into the Jin army array, causing casualties to the Jin army, some brave Ming troops also killed into the Jin army array, cut down the archers of the Jin army, so that the Jin army was busy and exhausted, under the attack of the Ming army in the tide, there was a gap in the Jin army's large array, the Han army in the Jin army was equipped with few bows and arrows, this group of people first began to mess up, as more and more Ming troops entered the Jin army array, The superiority of the Ming army was revealed, and it seemed that the victory was in hand.
Babutai unhurriedly shot arrows at the Ming army, and after shooting a pot of arrows, he whispered to the panicked Aha beside him: "What are you panicking, it's too early for these rotten soldiers to eat us, you go and blow the trumpet and release the trumpet arrows, now the cavalry can be dispatched." The trumpet of the Jin army for help sounded, the three trumpet arrows exploded in the air, the Anshan Post Fort opened the gate again, and the iron cavalry of the two yellow flags rushed out and quickly crossed the river to outflank the Ming army.
Two hundred cavalry are one person and two horses, four hundred horses rushed over together, the sound of horse hooves was thrilling, the Ming army on the flank was instantly crushed, the meritorious Su Bai had already prepared, each team selected ten dead soldiers with double harness and heavy armor to rush into battle, the other forty cavalry followed closely behind and kept shooting arrows to cover, this kind of brutal fighting style is the consistent tactics of the Jin army, not to mention this chaotic Ming army, even the regular Ming army in Liaodong can not be stopped, where the Su Bai iron cavalry goes, the Ming army was immediately rushed to pieces.
Li Yu's two teams also detoured back to the flank of the Ming army, but he vetoed Bai Ge's proposal to charge the formation, and let Bai Ge command the red armor soldiers to run back and forth, pressing the Ming army to shoot arrows non-stop, and break up the Ming army's formation as much as possible.
Li Yu stood on his horse and observed the changes in the battle situation, the more he looked at it, the more he shook his head, the Ming army in front of him was like an army, it was simply a group of ordinary people who played the banner of the Ming army, they had almost no cavalry, no armor, no bows and arrows, the weapons in their hands were messy, many people were holding hoes, dung forks, and even sharpened wooden sticks, their military flags were disorganized, the common people obviously did not understand the orders, the flags, all with a bloody and brave spirit to kill, suddenly Su Bai hit hard, immediately panicked, Babutai, who had been beaten, took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and the Ming army was even more panicked, and the formation, which was still a little shapely, was chaotic, some people were still squeezing forward, and some people were retreating, and the Ming army officers obviously couldn't control their ranks.
Li Yu sighed, the Ming army is going to be finished, this is another massacre, he often hears people mention Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang Town, and he admires this Ming army general who has been defeated and fought repeatedly, but today he began to hate him, this kind of team to fight is basically to send to death, and the people who dare to let this kind of team go to the battlefield are either crazy or ill-intentioned, you can be loyal to your emperor and the court, you can also play your own small abacus, but you can't achieve your so-called loyalty or selfishness, Hide far away and let innocent people die for you, no matter how much you think you have the right reason, sending unarmed and untrained people to a cruel battlefield is to slaughter them, and people who are so cruel to their own people must not be good people, they are bad people who are worse than thieves, if the emperor and the court of the Ming Kingdom like to use such people to fight, then they will treat their own people very cruelly.
Bai Ge ran over again to ask Li Yu what to do, he pointed to the chaotic battlefield and said, the Ming army has collapsed, Babutai and Su Bai are wantonly killing, and we will be robbed of our military merits if we don't go up - Bai Ge and Li Yu went on two business trips, fell into a sick place, and asked Li Yu what to do about everything, he still feels good, he doesn't need to use his brain, his life is worry-free, and he can be promoted and make a fortune, what a beautiful thing, this time he grabbed this errand quickly, and many people are vying to make a fortune with Erlu Batulu.
Li Yu let out a long sigh, let's end it quickly, he pointed to the banner of the Ming army and told Bai Ge, we will not be entangled with this group of miscellaneous soldiers, we must fight quickly, that flag should be the main general of the Ming army, rush over and kill the enemy general, and then force these ordinary people with knives and guns to surrender.
Bai Ge was immediately excited when he heard it, Baturu is different, he has to kill the enemy general as soon as he makes a move, this is the biggest military achievement.
As soon as the military order was given, Li Yu's two teams of red-armored soldiers quickly set up a cone-shaped cavalry formation, Li Yu took the lead with a long lance, Meng Ke and Bai Ge guarded the left and right with swords and shields, and rushed towards the chaotic Ming army.
Under the banner of the Ming army, hundreds of Ming troops have gathered at this time, including some armored soldiers, they set up a neat battle formation to protect the banner, this should be the elite of the Ming army, the first armored general held a big knife and shouted: "I am the Ming Dongjiang Town guerrilla Li Liangmei, Jiannu Xiu is rampant, quickly report to the name, this will not kill the nameless ghost." "Report the name of the fart, Li Yu instantly killed the man in front of the horse, the horse lance smashed directly to the top of the other party's head, the man raised the knife to parry, the horse lance smashed heavily on the knife shaft, the big knife was immediately smashed out, and then the two horses kicked wrongly, Li Yu took advantage of the fact that the person was still at a loss, kicked him off the horse with one kick, Meng Ke behind Li Yu did not wait for the man to fall to the ground, grabbed one of his feet and lifted the person up and pressed it on his horse's back, that Li Liangmei was so frightened that he fainted at this time.
Li Yu's courage frightened the Ming army, Li Yu overturned a few people and killed the flag in one breath, and the long lance swept the flag officer and knocked the flag to the ground, and then he immediately stopped with the lance and shouted loudly in Chinese: "The thief will be captured, and the one who surrenders will not be killed!" Meng Ke, Bai Ge and others have already crushed this Ming army, and they have also learned from Li Yu to shout over and over again: "The thief will be captured, and those who surrender will not be killed!" Seeing this, the surrounding Ming troops threw down their weapons one after another.
The flag officer of the Ming army, who fell to the ground, slowly got up and said to Li Yu: "You can speak Chinese, you are from the Ming Kingdom?" Li Yu looked at him coldly and did not answer, the man suddenly showed a strange smile on his face, stretched out his hand from behind him, and Meng Ke shouted: "Be careful, the thief has a hidden weapon!" Then he threw the knife at the man.
Li Yu was startled, and subconsciously fell to the side, and the long lance flew out of his hand and flew towards the other party, almost at the same time a sharp pain hit his left shoulder, and after the short crossbow in the man's hand shot this arrow, he was immediately stabbed on his back and fell to the ground by the flying horse lance and long knife.
"Baturu was plotted by the Ming army and killed this group of Ming troops." The Jin army was furious, and the Ming army that surrendered on the ground was immediately cut down, and the flag officer was even more chopped into pulp with a knife.
Li Yu endured the pain and shouted: "If you don't kill those who descend, stop for me!" But the Jin soldiers were red-eyed, and Li Yu's shouts couldn't stop them for a while, and the Ming army was killed all over the ground.
When Li Yu finally drank the Jin soldiers, Babutai and Su Bai also killed, the battle was actually over at this time, the Ming army was defeated like a mountain, the soldiers threw away the knives, spears, sticks in their hands, and fled in all directions in panic, and the Jin soldiers were chasing the Ming army to kill wantonly.
Babutai looked at Li Yu's injury, and immediately ordered someone to go back to the fort to find the medical officer, Su Bai was so angry that he stomped his foot and scolded: "You are a good person, you have to suffer this time, you deserve it!" "After saying that, he turned around and left,
"Just stay here and I'll take care of the rest."
"Brother Subai, there are a lot of dead people, don't kill them again!" Li Yu shouted behind him.
"Don't worry about it, I know it." A large group of Jin soldiers followed Su Bai in the direction of the Ming army's escape, shouting and screaming to chase down.
