Chapter 279: Golden Ditch

The reason why Sun Yi decided to withdraw his troops and no longer beat the water dogs was because the calf said a sentence:

"The morning glow doesn't go out, and the sunset travels thousands of miles."

This is a local proverb, which means that in the summer, it will rain when you see the sunrise in the sky, and the sunset will indicate a sunny day.

Sun Yixiao asked the calf: "Are you allowed to say this?" ”

Niu Guangtian replied solemnly: "Eight or nine is not far from ten!" In summer, the southeast wind blows, and the morning glow means that there is rain in the clouds in the east. ”

Sun Yi immediately attached great importance to it.

The rainy season in Yinshan is formed by the warm and humid air flow of the Pacific Ocean from the southeast in summer, and this proverb of the local villagers actually has profound scientific significance.

When it rains in the mountains, the rainwater collects into the ravine, and the so-called road in the ravine becomes a river.

After Sun Yi led the three battalions to retreat to Jingou, the leader of the communication corps, the orphan boss, reported to him: "Since last night, the air pressure has been dropping. ”

Both messages point to the same prediction: "The rainy season is coming." ”

……

One day and one night, Kong Youxing, who stayed behind in Jingou Kouzi Barrier City, built a fort on a platform high ground more than ten miles inside Jingou and hoisted it with two general guns and two tiger squat guns transported by the third battalion fleet.

Sun ordered the three battalions to rest in the valley under the fort, and he and Yang Ritian ascended the fort.

There was no road from Jingou to the fort, so the soldiers on the fort put down the soft ladder, and the two climbed the ladder.

The batteries were arranged in a rather orderly manner, and the artillery fire could cover the enemy coming from both directions of the golden ditch. If you add a few combined cicada ballistas, this stronghold can completely block the Manchurian soldiers in the ditch and hold out until reinforcements arrive.

The only threat to the fort came from the wild hills behind it, where Minfu was building a bunker.

When he was in Qingshanzui, he was one of the three general banners of Li Guang's "Shaanxi Town", and he led the people of this general banner to accompany the big board under the flower head cabinet to "pull goods".

Sun Yi looked at his resume.

Every soldier in the coalition forces has an official resume. The content includes name, place of origin, age, what other relatives are in the family, hobbies, characteristics, experience, etc. The purpose of the resume is only one, in the event that a soldier is killed in battle, with this content, the martyr's lost relatives may be able to find him in the future.

Kong Youxing's resume reads: "A native of Gaizhou, Liaodong, his ancestral home is Shandong, his younger brother is separated, and his name is virtuous." Liaoshen fell, and the two brothers first defected to Mao Wenlong in Dongjiang Town, and then defected to Zu Dashou in Jinzhou. ”

As soon as Sun finished reading his resume, he always wanted to find an opportunity to have a good chat with Kong.

Sun Yi first instructed Kong Youxing to take temporary rain protection measures for gunpowder, and then asked as if inadvertently: "Mr. Kong Qi, is there any news of your brother?" ”

Kong Youxing shook his head with a gloomy expression.

"How did you and your brother get separated?"

Kong Youxing replied: "At the beginning, we were both under Mao Dashuai on Phi Dao, and three years ago, Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Dashuai for no reason, and the brothers in Dongjiang Town were cold-hearted. Youde said that Phi Dao could not stay, and it was better for the two of us brothers to go separately, in case one of them was broken, the incense would not be broken. Guan Ning's army has enough food, and you have virtue to let me go to Zu Dashou; Sun Yuan, the governor of Denglai, became an honest official, and he was virtuous to vote for Lord Sun. Then there was no news. ”

Sun Yi was stunned.

Kong Youxing's brother is really the big traitor Kong Youde.

According to historical records, Kong Youde should have rebelled in Shandong by now, and next year he would bring artillery warships to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, making the Manchu Qing Dynasty ahead of the Ming Dynasty in terms of artillery number and artillery technology in one fell swoop.

However, the big traitor went to Sun Yuanhua, why did it actually because he thought that Sun Yuanhua was an honest official!

Moreover, Sun Yi has always had a question, the history of the Ming Dynasty to reinforce the Daling River 40,000 reinforcements were defeated on September 27, the fourth year of Chongzhen, the defenders of the Daling River surrendered on October 28, the fourth year of Chongzhen, Kong Youde was ordered to lead 800 horsemen from Shandong to reinforce the Daling River, in the fourth year of Chongzhen, on the 28th day of the leap month of the fourth year of Chongzhen, passing through a place called Wuqiao because the soldiers ate a chicken of a local large household caused a dispute and rebelled.

With such a long time between the front and back, didn't anyone tell Kong Youde that there was no need for reinforcements ahead?

The 40,000 Ming reinforcements were reimbursed, didn't Kong Youde's 800 horsemen go to die? Shouldn't such a feat of treating death as if it were home, be a fierce man loyal to the monarch and patriot? How did they rebel?

Isn't Kong Youde an eight-hundred-hundred-cavalry? How did it suddenly grow to more than 100,000 people? And also mastered the most advanced artillery technology and artillery talents of the Ming Dynasty?

The battle of the steppe made Sun Yi realize that the history written by the Manchu Qing was complete nonsense.

The history books of the Manchu Qing Dynasty say that Huang Taiji led an army of 100,000 to conquer the grasslands. Actually, it's only 20,000. Hehe, 100,000, let's calculate how much grain and grass you want, it's okay to deceive Sun programmer, who didn't understand the military before, but now it seems that he is lying with his eyes open and shameless.

The Manchu history books say that Lin Dan was so frightened that he led his troops to move west to Qinghai. In fact, Lin Dan led his troops to fight guerrilla warfare with Huang Taiji early.

The Manchu history books say that after Huang Taiji captured Kuku and Tun on May 27, the army marched 700 miles in one day and swept across the grassland. In fact, Abahai is going to run out of food, hehe, he travels 700 miles a day, and he rides a motorcycle that can be refueled in the air, right?

Sun Yi shook his head and decided to forget all the nonsense of the Manchu history and only believe in the facts that had been confirmed.

Sun Yi asked Kong Youxing: "What kind of person is Mao Dashuai?" ”

Kong Youxing replied: "Good man! Without Mao Dashuai, our brothers would have died long ago. ”

This is definitely a fact, an indisputable fact.

Yuan Chonghuan's killing of Mao Wenlong is also a fact, and it is also an indisputable fact.

Simple logic, Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong because Yuan Chonghuan didn't think Mao Wenlong was a good person.

Why is this happening? Because everyone has a different position.

Kong Youxing's position is that of the ordinary soldiers and ordinary people of Dongjiang. Yuan Chonghuan's position was that of the Ming Dynasty minister and emperor.

This shows that in the place of Phi Dao, Dongjiang Town, the position of the common people and the position of the emperor are opposite.

"Is Marshal Mao treating your brothers well?"

"Good! Mao Dashuai recognized Youde as a righteous grandson and gave him the name Mao Yongshi, and Youde was very grateful to Mao Dashuai. ”

"How many righteous sons and grandsons does Mao Dashuai have?"

"Well, there must be more than 2,000!"

"More than two thousand? Or is it a righteous grandson? For this, Kong Youde is still grateful to Mao Wenlong? ”

"Of course grateful! This shows that Mao Dashuai treats us as his own family. ”

"Don't you think that Mao Wenlong thinks that so many righteous sons and grandsons are forming gangs to fight against the imperial court?"

"Impossible! It is enough to form a gang and form a faction to recognize a few righteous sons and grandchildren, and more than 2,000 righteous sons and righteous grandchildren are a burden. ”

"Makes sense." , Sun Yi was persuaded, "What kind of person is Kong Youde?" ”

Kong Youxing recalled his brother, and his eyes showed pride: "Youde is a big tall man with great strength, and he should be thirty years old this year." In the past, when we were miners, he could do the work of two people and earn more than anyone else. ”

"yes, where did you become miners?"

"Iron Ridge, Iron Mine."

"Is the grade of iron ore in Tieling good?"

"Good! It's much stronger than two and a half miles of iron ore. The iron of Tieling can be directly beaten into the iron leaves lining the cotton armor, and the iron of two and a half miles is not good at all. ”

Sun Yi found a reason for the rapid development of Manchukuo.

It turned out that they had high-quality iron ore, and they had a militaristic mechanism of concentrating on doing great things, so the iron leaf armor of the Manchurian soldiers was much more common than the dark armor of the Ming Dynasty army, so the Ming army did not dare to fight the Manchurian army in the field.

Kong Youxing smiled honestly and said to Sun Yiyi: "Niu Li'er asked me to go to their village's iron mine to work after this battle. If Youde knew, I don't know how happy he would be. ”

Listening to Kong Youxing's words, his younger brother Kong Youde is just an ordinary miner who wants to live a good life.

Sun Yi asked tentatively: "Mr. Kong Qi, do you estimate that Kong Youde will surrender to Manchukuo one day?" ”

"No!" , Kong Youxing seemed to be insulted, "My father died at the hands of Manchurian soldiers, how could my brother do such a thing?" ”

The current situation in Shandong is not known to Yang Ritian from Shaanxi and Sun Dingliao from Shenyang, and Sun Yi does not dare to conclude whether Kong Youde has rebelled now, how large the scale of the rebellion is, and he does not dare to guess why Kong Youde rebelled.

However, it is an indisputable fact that Kong Youde finally surrendered to the Manchus and was crowned king of Dingnan.

Sun Yi sighed.

"Mr. Kong Qi", Sun Yiyi, "Do you know why Jingou is called Jingou?" ”

Kong had the honor to reply: "Because in ancient times there was gold here." ”

Sun Yiyi: "Jingou not only had gold in ancient times, but also now!" If there really is such a day, please tell Kong Youde that I am willing to exchange the gold of this whole ditch for Kong Youde and not go to Manchuria. ”

In later generations, the golden ditch was called Hademen Ditch, and Kong was fortunate to build the fort now, and it was called Hademen Fort in later generations.

The famous Hardman Gold Mine is right in the ditch.

Nuclear waste from the atomic bomb was also buried in the ditch.
