Chapter 103: War

Yang Ritian worriedly reported to Sun Yi a piece of information confided by the captive: There is another war on the grassland. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Last year, the Tartars of the Chahar family attacked the Tartars of the Horqin family, and this year it was rumored that the Horqin family united with the Aixin Jin Kingdom to seek revenge. The nomads on the grassland have taken refuge, and many of them have taken refuge in the Wolf Mountain River, which is why the bandits will expand so quickly.

Sun Yi didn't understand: "Isn't it all about secrecy in war?" Why did the rumors spread before the battle began? ”

Yang Ritian replied: "The battle on the grassland is different from the Central Plains. The grassland is vast and sparsely populated, and it takes a lot of time to inform the tribe and invite helpers, and it is necessary to raise the horses before they are fattened for long-distance travel, and they are often scattered months in advance to gather people and horses, and the date of sending troops, it is impossible to keep secrets. ”

Sun Yi didn't expect to fight on the grassland, and it was a way to fight with hooligans.

Involved in Aixin Jinguo, Sun Yi did not guard against cheating.

Sun Yi took out his mobile phone and wanted to check whether the Manchus had any action on the grassland in the five years of Chongzhen.

As a result, this year, the Manchu Qing Dynasty not only made a move in the grassland, but also made a big move - this year, "Huang Taiji II Expedition to Har"!

According to the official historical data:

On the first day of April in the sixth year of Tiancong (the fifth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, 1632), Huang Taiji led the army to leave Shenyang and conquer Lin Dan Khan in the west. Along the way, the Mongolian tribes of Beile led their troops from the conquest decree to meet each other, and the people who came to the meeting were Karaqin, Tumut, Karacherik, Issuta, Zalut, Aohan, Naiman, Alu, Bahrain, Korqin and other departments, as well as dozens of Beile from the Mongolian tribes in the north, all of whom offered wine and horses, and the Khan held a big banquet to treat each other.

On 16 April, the Khan summoned the beylors and commended them for their obedience, and reprimanded those who were sluggish. "Blahblah And all the beyls were commanded, and they bowed their heads.

Huang Taiji ordered, day and night, to take Lin Dan Khan's residence and level Chahar in one fell swoop.

On April 22, the army crossed the Xing'an Mountains, marching more than 1,300 miles (counting from Shenyang), but not a single Chahar was seen. It turned out that the two old Mongols with yellow flags stole six good horses on the night of the 18th, galloped to Chahar, and notified the Jin soldiers to attack in a big way.

When Lin Dan Khan heard this, he told his subordinates to abandon his native land and run away, and sent him to the city of Guihua, driving the rich people and livestock across the Yellow River. The Chahar people fled in a hurry, and all the baggage was entrusted to them. ”

Huang Taiji knew of this situation, and instructed the ministers who led the army: "Chahar knows that my whole brigade is coming, and he will not dare to fight, and the more urgent the pursuit, the farther he will escape, and our army and horses are exhausted and the food is exhausted, so it is better to go to Guihua City to live temporarily." So the army marched towards the city of Naturalization.

On May 23, Huang Taiji divided his troops into two wings, and the left flank was led by Bel Azig as the commander, leading 10,000 troops from Horqin, Zalut, Karaqin, Tumut, and Alu to plunder the Chahar tribesmen in the area outside the border of Datong and Xuanfu; The right wing ordered Jilharang, Yuetuo, Dege, Sakhalian, Dolgon, Duoduo, Hauge and other Beylers to lead 20,000 troops to plunder the people around the Yellow River in the city of Guihua; Huang Taiji and Beile Daishan and Beile Mang Gurtai unified the army to advance.

On the 27th, Huang Taiji learned that Lin Dan Khan panicked when he heard that the Jin soldiers had entered, and "crossed the Yellow River with his people, livestock, and property, and left behind the ears of the poor people."

On this day, the army of Huang Taiji marched 700 miles, west to the Yellow River Munahan Mountain, east to Xuanfu, from the south of the naturalized city and the border of the Ming Kingdom, "where the residents escaped, all captured, those who returned, compiled as a household registration."

Huang Taiji believed that the goal of the battle had been basically achieved, so he led the army to return to the east and returned to Shenyang on 24 July. The trip lasted more than 10,000 miles and lasted three months and 26 days.

Lin Dan Khan led his troops to move to Qinghai, "the subjects suffered from their tyranny, and they couldn't resist", there were more than 300,000 people, and seven or eight out of ten people fled on the way. Two years later, Lin Dan Khan, who had nowhere to live, died of illness in the big grass beach of Qinghai, and the rest of the army returned one after another to surrender to Jin Khan.

After reading the information, Sun Yi secretly took a cool breath. In other words, there really was such a battle in history this summer! The one who commanded this battle was actually the famous Huang Taiji!

In fact, whether it is Huang Taiji or Lin Dan Khan, with the current strength of the Tiemu Battalion, it is for nothing to meet anyone.

Sun Yi's first reaction was to hide in the wolf mountain and not go out, don't let people find out.

Historical records record that "on May 27, the army marched 700 miles to the west of the Yellow River's Munahan Mountain. ”

Munahan Mountain is the place where Yinshan Xishanzui was called by Tiemuying in later generations. Sun Yi was lucky, so Huang Taiji did not enter the Wolf Mountain River!

Sun Yi immediately felt that something was wrong, "The army marched 700 miles a day", this is history, not romance, how can a day when a war is 700 miles?

Looking back and reading the "historical materials" again, Sun Yi was reborn!

In this battle, why does it seem that Huang Taiji didn't fight at all? Is it on the march?

Lin Dan Khan is also a famous overlord in history, why was he scared away directly?

On April 22, he learned that Lin Dan Khan had run away, but Huang Taiji actually slowed down the march without chasing?

On May 27, knowing that Lin Dan Khan had crossed the Yellow River, Huang Taiji ordered the army to march 700 miles, what was the use?

On 16 April, the Mongolian ministries seemed to be still unstable, and Huang Taiji gave a speech and subdued them as soon as the tiger's body was shaken. How does it feel like a time-traveling novel?

Sun Yi's programmer thinking told him that the so-called "historical record" is not logical, and there must be a problem!

There can only be one thing that is certain: there is indeed a battle on the steppe this summer! In the end, Huang Taiji won!

As for "Lin Dan Khan led his troops west to Qinghai", Sun Yi was very worried that he would take advantage of the Wolf Mountains and Rivers. If Lin Dan Khan's men and horses discovered the Ironwood Battalion, it would also be a catastrophe.

Sun Yi consulted Yang Ritian: "What are the special arrangements for the transfer of nomadic tribes?" ”

Yang Ritian replied: "Nomads basically go to the hillside in summer and warm nests in winter. Summer is the season when livestock grow fat, and summer camps are generally unchanged. In winter, there is not enough pasture, and a few winter camps are usually replaced. ”

Sun Yi simply said, "What if you have to change the ranch in the summer?" ”

Yang Ritian reasoned and said: "In the case of sheep, in summer, you have to drink water two or three times a day, and there must be a water source along the way. ”

In this way, it is likely that Lin Dan Khan moved west along the Yellow River.

Sun Yi asked again: "What month and day is today?" ”

Yang Ritian replied: "Today is the first day of the fifth month. ”

So, Huang Taiji is likely already on the way? It is likely that Lin Dan Khan has already begun to move west?

The Ironwood battalion had to prepare.

And the Ironwood Battalion is still entangled with a group of water bandits at the moment.

Sun Yi said to himself: "The bandits must be dealt with quickly!" ”

Yang Ritian nodded, this was exactly what he was worried about: "There are not many bandits on the outer islands who have been to the lair, and now according to the prisoners' explanations, we still have a lot of things we don't know about the specific deployment of the bandits' lair." ”

Sun Yi was ruthless and said to Yang Ritian: "Please bring the best horses and riders to Battle!" I'll fly to the sky and see! ”
