Last autumn, under the leadership of Huang Taiji, the Aixin Jin Kingdom sent troops from all over the country and 50,000 troops to besiege the Ming Dynasty's Dalinghe City. The pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info guard the Daling River, that is, the famous "Guanning Iron Horse".

Aixin Jinguo dug four trenches outside the city of Dalinghe, and also erected forty red-clothed cannons cast by himself. The 30,000 soldiers and civilians in Dalinghe City had only enough food for ten days, but they held out for nearly three months.

During this period, the Ming Dynasty supported four times, but was defeated by Huang Taiji.

In the city, they first killed war horses and ate horse meat, and when the horses were killed, they began to eat people.

Eventually, the harsh winter was approaching, and the defenders of the Daling River surrendered under the leadership of Zu Dashou.

When the army of the Aixin Jin Kingdom entered the city to receive the count of the number of people in Dalinghe City, there were only 11,682 people left in the city of more than 30,000 people, and 32 horses.

After the war, the two sides went to the altar to worship the heavens and swore an oath. Zu Dashou suggested that while Jinzhou did not know that he had surrendered, he was willing to bring a group of men and horses into Jinzhou as an internal response. Huang Taiji agreed.

As soon as Zu Dashou returned to Jinzhou City, he changed his hexagram and actively organized defense against the Qing army. Emperor Chongzhen not only did not condemn himself, but promoted Zu Dashou to the governor of the left capital and led Jinzhou.

However, Emperor Chongzhen issued an edict three times, ordering Zu Dashou to enter Beijing to meet him, and Zu Dashou excused himself and always stuck to Jinzhou City.

More than 10,000 soldiers who surrendered were absorbed by Huang Taiji.

Ordinary soldiers were confiscated with bows and arrows, leaving only weapons for self-defense. The firearms and artillerymen were incorporated into the Han Army Flag Firearms Battalion.

This time, Huang Taiji conquered Chahar, and the firearms battalion was recruited. The forty red-coated cannons of the original firearms battalion were not brought because they were too bulky, so most of the firearms battalion soldiers who were recruited were bird soldiers and tiger squat artillery from the original Liaodong Town.

The team of bird soldiers in front of him is the pioneer battalion of Beyl Azig of the Aixin Jin Country. Yesterday, when I had just driven into Osakapo, I heard that more than 100 Chahars were trapped on the island in the middle of the Yellow River, and they were urgently assigned to the west bank of the Yellow River, and the task was to block the river with bird guns to prevent the Chahars from crossing the river and fleeing westward.

The Manchurians, who loved the Xinjin Kingdom, were afraid that the birds and soldiers would escape, so they deliberately did not leave a raft and delivered food once a day, which was only enough for one day.

They had spotted someone lighting a fire in the area last night, and had come to search early this morning, but they had come across the horse team of the Ironwood Battalion.

"Where are the trapped Chahars?" The cavalry commander asked.

"A mile upstream from here. If they set up a raft to cross the river, this is the way to go. One of the captives replied.

Captain Wu and Battle glanced at each other, and they both turned over and hurried upstream.

Mo Rigen found the place where the fire was last night, looked at the top of Qingshan Mountain, and asked in a loud voice, "Who can play the flag?" ”

One of the horsemen stepped forward and replied, "I will!" ”

Mozhigen had the cavalryman stand on horseback, holding two three-eyed guns with colored flags tied to the ends of the barrels, and waved them vigorously to connect with the observation post at the top of the mountain.

Sure enough, the observation post was watching them, and the old man squinted his eyes and shouted, "There's a reply!" ”

The cavalry on horseback looked hard at the top of the hill, "I didn't see it!" ”

Morrigan made a strange pose, "That's it. ”

"It's 73! They were saying hello to us. The cavalry blurted out, "The old man's eyes are so good!" ”

……

In Shulinzi Township, in Sun Yi's courtyard, Daoist Jia was sitting at the table of the Eight Immortals spitting stars flying horizontally, planning how to combine vertical and horizontal and bluff.

A signal soldier rushed to the scene: "The horse team has news!" ”

Several bosses immediately gathered at the staff headquarters. The walkie-talkie at the Qingshanzui observation post sent back Mo Rigen's news one after another.

According to the more than 100 so-called "Chahars" on the island in the middle of the river upstream of Mozhigen, it was Ga Li Guang's scout team.

The scouts had been on the island for two days, and they had run out of sheepskin rafts. Fortunately, Mozhigen's horse team brought a few sheepskin tires and was now urgently inflating to cut down trees and tie rafts.

When he learned that a group of Aixin Jin Kingdom bird soldiers captured by the horse team were actually Guanning iron cavalry who surrendered in the Battle of Daling River, Sun Yi was silent.

Da Linghe, 30,000 people, the ten-day ration lasted for three months!

The lord of the city will be Zu Dashou, and the history of Jinzhou has been held for ten years, until 1642, when the emperor Taiji repeated his old skills, besieged Jinzhou for a year, and the city of Jinzhou became a hell of cannibalism again, and Zu Dashou was cleared for the second time.

Speaking from the heart, if Sun Yi was put in the position of Zu Dashou, Sun Yi would have surrendered early.

History has different reviews of Zu Dashou: warlords, traitors, second ministers, and good guarded generals, and some people say that Guanning Tieqi is Zu Dashou's ancestral army, he began to stick to it, because he was afraid that after surrendering, Huang Taiji would slaughter the city, and later surrendered, which was nothing more than to leave a way for his private soldiers to live regardless of national righteousness.

Phew!

In this era, Zu Dashou's ancestral army, Qi Jiguang's Qi army, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army, Qin Liangyu's white pole soldiers, and even Yue Fei's Yuejia army, which team is not a private army?

During World War II, China's Sichuan Army, although it was a rabble, dared to sacrifice in the face of Japanese invaders, and was a national hero.

Guess the motives of others, and a thousand people will come to a thousand different conclusions.

Just looking at the performance of the battle of Dalinghe, Zu Dashou as a commander and Guanning Iron Cavalry as a soldier are beyond reproach.

Sun Yi stood up and solemnly said to the communication soldiers: "Let Mo Rigen tell the iron cavalry of Liaodong Town that in the battle of Daling River, they are still glorious even if they are defeated!" ”

"They can't be blamed for being forced to surrender in the end. They did their best, and they were worthy of every father and fellow villager in Liaodong. ”

"In the three months of the Battle of Dalinghe, what they did, the Tiemu Battalion would not ask a word. Those who are willing to stay in the Wolf Mountains and Rivers will be given priority to 50 acres of land after taking the oath. Those who are willing to return to the Ming Dynasty will escort them into the customs after this battle. ”

"Please tell them that the Ironwood Battalion will take them home."

……

Qingshanzui, by the Yellow River.

Seven or eight captives were sitting cross-legged on the ground, some were looking at the ironwood cavalry who were also wearing the uniforms of the Ming army, some were staring blankly at the top of the black green mountain, and some were puzzled at the old man Mo Rigen dancing with his hands.

The cavalryman standing on horseback stared at Mo Rigen's posture and read Sun Yi's words word by word.

"Tell them that the Ironwood Battalion will take them home."

One of the captives cried "wow",

"I'm going home, I'm going to see my mother's ......"
