364 The upheaval on the south bank of the Songhua River

(Today's second chapter, it's another 8,000 words, brothers, let's do it too!) ）

When Lian Zining received the holy decree to appoint him as the general of the Songhua River and control dozens of guards south of the Songhua River, it was already August 25 of the 51st year of Zhengde.

A lot has happened these days.

After the battle was completed that day and the Jurchens withdrew, on the second day, the cavalry of Fuyuwei naturally retreated. Before leaving, Ha Bu Bu personally talked with Lian Zining, and the two of them negotiated a big deal, Lian Zining used a thousand iron pots, a thousand iron needles, a thousand silk horses, and a thousand catties of tea bricks in exchange for two thousand good Mongolian horses.

The date of delivery was two months later, and it was delivered together with Lian Zining's remuneration for borrowing troops from Fuyuwei this time.

For both sides, this is a win-win result, and for Ha Bu, the war horse is not valuable, and what is valuable is what he does not have. And if two thousand Mongolian horses were transported to Guannai, the supplies that could be purchased would be more than three times what Lian Zining had paid, not to mention, a motorized cavalry team was what he urgently needed now.

The forces of both sides have all withdrawn, and Xi Shenwei has regained its quietness, and the next thing is naturally to rectify the defense, recuperate, and wait for the disposition of the imperial court.

Speaking of which, Lian Zining was still very apprehensive in his heart, after all, this time, the entire Northern Expeditionary Army was defeated, and he was also counted among the Northern Expeditionary Army, and he was also one of the out-and-out defeated generals. Although it is said that the battle of Xishenwei was a complete victory, I don't know what kind of attitude the imperial court has.

The nature of characterizing this incident as a meritorious service or a great victory is completely different.

He thinks he knows more about Zhengde's character, but he doesn't dare to say that what he thinks is completely correct in this matter, after all, Jane is in the emperor's heart, between the thought of the saint, but in the clouds, between a thought, it can make you fall into hell.

Not only Lian Zining, but also Chen Dakang, Sun Ji and other officers were also in a nervous mood and could only wait quietly.

Two days after the war, the results of casualty statistics also came out.

This time the loss can only be described as heavy.

Wu Yi's army had 9,000 foot soldiers, 800 cavalry soldiers, and more than 1,000 people in the Ordnance Bureau, of which the Cavalry Ordnance Bureau was unscathed, with 2,460 foot soldiers killed and 763 seriously wounded, including 310 disabled and more than 2,300 lightly wounded.

Of the 5,600 Shenwu right guards, 3,750 were killed in battle, 143 were seriously wounded, and almost all of the rest were wounded.

Jingwei was even more miserable, it was mostly wounded, and it was forced to go to the battlefield by the tragic situation of death, so the losses were extremely heavy, and the team of more than 20,000 people now has only more than 6,700 people left.

All the departments are recuperating, fortunately, there is a lot of grain and grass in Xishenwei, it was enough to eat for a year before the war, and now it is enough for these remaining people to eat for several years, and the northwest of Xishen Acropolis is the Songhua River, the southeast is the Asu River, and the northeast is the Heilongjiang River after the confluence of the two rivers, the fish resources are extremely rich, and the surrounding more than ten miles away is the dense forest and long grass, and there are many wild beasts in it, so there is no need to worry about the shortage of food.

It took about ten days for the remaining soldiers to go into the mountains to cut down large trees and make coffins.

On the fourth day of the first month of August, in the south of the Acropolis, the whole army wore sackcloth to pay tribute to the robes that died in battle.

Lian Zining chose a highland on the west bank of the Azov River, twenty miles south of the Xishen Acropolis, and all the tens of thousands of soldiers who died in battle, each with a coffin, were buried in the green mountains and green waters on the bank of the Songhua River.

For people in this era, it is already an extremely happy thing to have such a beautiful burial after death, to be able to accommodate themselves in a feng shui treasure place, and to have a solid coffin.

These days, Xishenwei is calm and unwavering, but the south bank of the Songhua River, which has an area almost the size of a Shandong political envoy, is already in chaos.

The previous general Songhuajiang is now in the edict prison and counting the ants waiting to die, and the edict with the name of the current Songhuajiang general Lian Zining is still on the road at this time, and the entire south bank of the Songhua River, west of the Asu River, east of the Zhubang city, and north of the Liaobei general's jurisdiction This thousands of miles of fertile fields has become a vacuum without a ruler.

The root cause of this is that there is no military station.

The first Jurchen army invaded south under the leadership of Amin, Jilharang, Erle and Ze, and was caught off guard, and the border army under General Songhuajiang was defeated and lost, with more than half of the more than 100,000 troops suffering casualties, and only less than 50,000 remnants of the defeated generals remained. And the remaining 50,000 people, following Xu Pengju's northern expedition, were defeated on the north bank of the Songhua River, and few of these 50,000 people fled back.

Therefore, although there are still more than a dozen guards and dozens of offices under the command of General Songhuajiang now, the actual remaining soldiers are only 5,000 people in the big city of Zhubang.

In other places, the barracks of the local guard post are still there, but there is no one inside.

In fact, the current Songhuajiang general's jurisdiction is not without an army, in fact, at this time, there are not many soldiers in the Songhuajiang general's jurisdiction, there are tens of thousands, but they no longer belong to the army sequence of the Ming Dynasty, although they were still more than ten days ago.

On August 3, He Yunyan, the commander of Kemuwei under the command of the former Songhuajiang general, led more than 3,000 remnants of the army to occupy Qileniwei, killed all the Ming officials stationed in the local area, occupied dozens of miles in the local area, and collected taxes from the local people, thus dominating one side.

On the same day, the former general Asujiang under the command of the deputy general Hong Chaojiao occupied Mangjita City and Yaoqi Station.

On the fifth day of the eighth month, Cao Chen, the commander of the Zhengsanpin Fayin River Guard, the former general of Liaobei, led the remnants of 6,000 soldiers to occupy the Kaolang Wuwei.

These remnants of the defeated generals, they have been in the army for a long time, naturally know how the Ming Dynasty dealt with the soldiers who fled without a fight, and they were naturally terrified in their hearts, knowing that if they returned to the station honestly, what was waiting for them was an edict. For these officers, the loss of their heads is not only a scar the size of a bowl, but also the glory and wealth of this life.

They are different from Jingwei, Jingwei are all soldiers recruited in Guannai, and their family foundations are all in Guannei, if they don't go back, they will definitely implicate their families, so they all honestly return to Beijing under the leadership of their respective commanders and wait for disposal. But the border army is different, they are all from local background, they have a lot of scruples, and they have been mixing outside the customs for a long time, and they know this place very well, accounting for many reasons, their actions at the moment are easy to understand.

After all, few people can do it, especially when they have no scruples.

On August 15, Ke Gan Wei Wupin and Zhi Santo took advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion of all officials to kill the prefect of Ke Muwei, and the court officials such as the general sentence, the promotion of officials, the experience, the governor, the Zhaoma, the school inspection, and the prison officer. Santo was originally the chief of a large tribe of the Jurchens in Jianzhou, and later returned to the Ming Dynasty, and the clansmen were moved to the vicinity of Kemuwei, and he himself was appointed as the Kemuwei Tongzhi of the Zhengwupin, but at such a critical moment, he used the lesson of blood to tell the court what is called - not my race, its heart will be different!

Santo united with more than a dozen local Jurchen tribes, totaling about 30,000 people, to re-establish the banner of the Jianzhou Jurchen Guerjia clan, claiming to be the great chieftain and occupying a range of hundreds of miles around Kemuwei.

The ground around Kemuwei is the richest place in the entire Songhuajiang General's territory, there are hundreds of thousands of Han people in the local area, and the Han people have cultivated hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land, and the grain is harvested every year, and the life is very rich. And these belonging Jurchens, that is, mature women, are really not good at farming, and fishing and hunting are not as skilled as those wild Jurchens of the same race who are not civilized, so their lives are very poor.

People do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from injustice, and when they have comparison, they will naturally be red when they see that others are living well and their own lives are bad. However, the dominant position in the local area is the Han people, and the local officials are basically Han Chinese, and Han nationalism is very serious, but whenever there is an ethnic dispute, the Jurchen and the Han people have a dispute, basically they are biased towards the Han people.

Suddenly, the stars shifted, and the Jurchens gained the upper hand, and so, like the scene in Indonesia hundreds of years later, was staged in Khuwei.

Countless Jurchens rushed into the Han villages, wantonly looted their wealth, burned down their houses, drove them out, killed at will, and raped their wives and daughters in front of the men.

Although the Han people are strong as a whole, they live scattered, and they have no power to fight back for a while, and the Jurchens are elite warriors on horseback, and they are not something they can resist.

Under the chaos, horse thieves and bandits from all over the country also jumped out one after another, taking advantage of the fire to loot and slaughter villages. And those Han heroes who have some forces have built high walls, accumulated grain, dug deep ditches, and built villages into strong fortresses to resist horse thieves and Jurchens.

In this way, the south of the Songhua River has become a chaotic situation.

The more than 5,000 soldiers stationed in the big city of Zhubang are still too late to protect themselves, how can they still put down the chaos?

Xishenwei Zhujun is also seriously injured, and even if he has spare strength, this nameless and pointless, he is still a guilty body, how can he come forward to quell the chaos?

Generally speaking, there are now four kinds of forces in the territory under the jurisdiction of General Songhuajiang at the same time.

The local surrendered Jurchen tribe and the powerful landlords of the Han nationality, bandits and horse thieves, and the rebels who retreated from the defeat of the Northern Expeditionary Army.

The territory under the jurisdiction of General Songhuajiang was divided into four grounds by the Ming government - Xishenwei ground, Kemuwei ground, Zhubang Dacheng ground, and Hulin ground.

These four grounds, the level of the ground is roughly equivalent to the level of the Ming Dynasty Guannei, but due to the sparsely populated reason outside the Guan, the ground area of the first level of this government is much larger than that of the Guannai, and there are about hundreds of thousands of people on each ground less than a million. There are a number of county-level administrative districts under each ground, with prefects at the ground level and prefecture-level prefectures, and the ruling system that the Ming Dynasty spent decades building up here collapsed in an instant.
