Starting from Nurhachi, to his successor Huang Taiji, in order to make their Jiannu Eight Banners cavalry move quickly, nothing else was done, that is, the maintenance of the official roads in Liaodong was done well, especially for the main official roads in Liaodong, and the widening, reinforcement and leveling were carried out, so that the invincible Jiannu cavalry in the field could gallop freely in Liaodong, but it was also cheap Li Long could flash people as soon as possible after killing people and setting fires. On 29 May, he evacuated Shengjing at noon, and before evening, he passed Weiningbao on the Taizi River. This fort had already been conquered by the vanguard of Cheng Lianhu, and at this time it was controlled by the liberated Han Chinese

In order to prevent Jiannu from chasing and killing, Li Long left many traps along the way of retreat, such as planting ambush thunder on the road, or killing a prisoner of Jiannu on the way, and then making the corpse into barbecue. The fragrant smell of meat lured out the black bears that had not long finished hibernation, the hungry wild wolves and other fierce beasts, and made a free escort for Li Long to return to the palace.

At this time, Li Long was munching on the jerky while listening to the slight nourishment on the map.

Jinyi Wei Baihu, who has not shown up for a long time, has been undercover in North Korea for a long time, and his mission is to help the North Korean rebels train soldiers and horses and pass on information. He took out a detailed topographical map of Liaodong, pointed to Fort Weining, and said, "Commander, we are here now." "To the east, we can reach Hetuala, the old capital of Jiannu, and to the south is the direction of our retreat, Korea." ”

"Oops!" Halfway through Li Long's jerky, he suddenly screamed, startling Li Xin, Yang Dali and the others

"Commander? What's wrong? Li Xin hurriedly asked

"When we were in Shengjing, we only cared about burning, killing and looting, and relieving hatred was relieving hatred, but the Jiannu in Shengjing City were almost killed, if no one went to report to Huang Taiji, how could we shake the military heart of Jiannu?" Li Long patted his forehead, looking distressed

Yang Dali was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Didn't we also capture a lot of nobles who built slaves?" Why don't you just pick one or two of them and deliberately let them go to ventilate and report the news? ”

"The military commander can rest assured about this matter." Li Xin smiled and said, "Does the army commander remember the old eunuch who killed Jiannu and the little eunuch Xiao Chunzi who identified the chief of Jiannu?" ”

"Remember~" Li Long asked, "Do you mean to let this person go to ventilate and report the news?" ”

Li Xin said: "Fei Ye~ Along the way, in order to learn more about Jiannu, my subordinates had a long talk with him all the way. He said that the day before we entered Shenyang, Concubine Chen was seriously ill, and the palace had sent someone to the front line of Shanhaiguan to inform Huang Taiji and ask him to come back to see Concubine Chen for the last time. ”

"yes, how did I forget that?" Li Long then remembered that in history, Concubine Chen was seriously ill, and Huang Taiji left the army on the front line of Shanhaiguan, and traveled day and night, and a few horses ran to death, and returned to Shengjing overnight, but he still didn't catch up with the last meeting of Hai Lanzhu. Perhaps, at this moment, Huang Taiji is dispatching troops, preparing to catch up with himself to take revenge.

In fact, Huang Taiji did return to Shenyang the day after the Ming army withdrew, and the scene in front of him made him almost collapse. The city of Shengjing, which he had painstakingly managed, left only ruins and corpses all over the ground. When Huang Taiji approached the gate of the city, he was startled by countless crows pecking at the corpses, and the number of crows was as large as dark clouds in the sky.

Near the city gates, thousands of squirming and crawling on the ground with their eyes pierced, their tongues cut out, their hands and feet cut off, and they struggled like maggots in the mud soaked in blood and human bodies. They could not speak, only cries of pain. Inside the city gate, the corpses of Jiannu's family members were even more congested in the streets and alleys, and Huang Taiji could not enter at all on horseback. Most of the male corpses were disemboweled, or cut off the work, and the female corpses were all naked**, **full of teeth bite, and the lower body was filthy, apparently suffered before death**.

Walking further in the direction of the inner city, it is even more miserable. If the corpses in the outer city are at least whole corpses, then none of the corpses in the inner city are intact. On the steps of the main hall lie crookedly more than a dozen large guillotines, and on the side of the guillotines are the corpses that have been cut into pieces, and these corpses are covered in every corner of the ruins of the main hall. Every time Huang Taiji takes a step, he may step on a palm or a calf

Huang Taiji didn't cry or roar, and suddenly, he stopped and stood on two naked female corpses. Immediately, his fat body was for a while, and then the whole person began to tremble. Facing the sky on his back is Hai Lanzhu's corpse~~~ Beside Hai Lanzhu is the female corpse that was turned upwards, and there are several big characters written on the back of the corpse - Li Long, the general soldier of the Ming Dynasty, visited here, and there was an arrow drawn under a few strong Chinese characters, pointing directly to the organs that Li Long had visited. Huang Taiji carefully turned the corpse over, as if he was afraid of waking up half of the sleeping man, it was Bumu Butai's corpse

"Li Manzi~~" Huang Taiji couldn't hold on any longer, he looked up to the sky and roared, and a stream of hot blood gushed out from his nose, "Ah~" He opened his arms and leaned back weakly, as if he was about to fall

"Your Majesty~" A few close-fitting barrays hurriedly supported Huang Taiji, "Imperial Doctor~ Find Imperial Doctor." ”

"Get out of the way~" Seeing that the crumbling Huang Taiji suddenly stabilized his body, he touched a section of the beam that was still smoking with his hand, and then covered his nose that was still dripping blood with his hand, and said with resentment: "The carbon ash is not cold, the Ming army has a long-distance sneak attack, there will not be many people, the three warehouses are destroyed, they have looted a lot of treasures, and they can't go fast." Dokodo, you immediately go and mobilize all the men around who can ride horses, the Ming army must not have gone far, you must find them. ”

"Chirp~" Duo Keduo's family also lives in Shengjing City, judging from the current situation, I am afraid that it is more than auspicious, and Duo Keduo didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately rushed away

"Cha Kemu ~ You tell everyone that Sheng Jing sees everything, and he is not allowed to say a word, and after returning to Shanhaiguan, he will say that everything is fine in Sheng Jing."

"Chirp~" Chakmu is a Mongolian, and his family is far away in the steppe, so his mood is a little calmer, at this moment he admires Huang Taiji's concentration very much, and when he encounters such a big change, he can still plan back and forth calmly.

"It's just~ Your Majesty, Sheng Kyoto is like this, do we still have to go to Shanhaiguan to fight?" Chuck Mu asked

"Of course we have withdrawn our troops, but if we retreat like this, Wu Sangui, that old thief, is likely to chase after our tail and bite us. So~~" Huang Taiji took out a dagger from his boots and cut off a strand of head from Hai Lanzhu's head and put it in his arms

The wheel of history stubbornly continued to move along the original trajectory, while Li Long was still waiting for Huang Taiji's pursuit in the temporary camp of Hat Helmet Mountain. As a result, it backfired, and the scouts sent out only showed a few scattered Jiannu of dozens of people, and there was no sign of a large army of Jiannu coming to pursue at all. On the contrary, one of the scouts stepped on the Ming army's own mines, and another scout was dragged deep into the jungle by the black blind when he was freeing his hands in the forest.

These two unlucky soldiers were compensated according to the example of the death in battle, Li Long was very strange, why did he work so hard to "clean up" Shengjing, and Huang Taiji would be indifferent? Could it be that Huang Taiji has really achieved the realm of immobility like a mountain, and it is difficult to know the realm of yin and yang.

"I'm strange, we made such a big move in Shenyang, didn't the Jiannu in Shanhaiguan hear any rumors?" Li Xin's younger brother Li Mu was surprised

"It seems that Huang Taiji blocked the news, but with such a big movement, can it be blocked?" Gu Junen smiled: "Since Huang Taiji is unwilling to say it, then let's talk about it." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Li Xin asked

In Li Long's plan, some traitors and Jiannu nobles were deliberately left unkilled, including Wu Sangui's son Zu Zehong, his nephew Zu Zerun, and his adopted son Zu Kefa. and Liu Liangzuo's younger brother Liu Liangchen. The rest are the few concubines of Huang Taiji who were not killed by the Ming army, including Borzigit Namu Zhong (Empress Dowager), the wife of the original Nurhachi and Huang Taiji's sworn enemy Lin Dan Khan

This part of the captives was to be escorted back to Beijing and presented to Emperor Chongzhen, so they were strictly guarded on weekdays, not only to prevent them from committing suicide, but also to give them a good diet, so that they would not die of illness and starvation halfway. But on this day, the old man who was in charge of delivering food to Namu Zhong only brought a bowl of wheat porridge and a piece of wheat cake to Namu Zhong's mother and son

The old man looked at Bogol, who was gobbling up, then at Namu Zhong, and said, "If my grandson doesn't die, he will be as old as you." ”

Namu Zhong ate a small piece of wheat cake, surprised for a moment, but did not dare to ask

"It was killed by your Jiannu~" The old man suddenly stiffened his face

"We are Mongols, not Jurchens." Namu Zhong said in Chinese

"I think it's all about the same!" The old man said, "But you can't eat the food I cooked for a few days~"

"What?" Namu Zhong trembled, and the wheat cake in his hand was thrown in the prisoner car, "Do you want to kill our mother and son?" ”

"No~~ Because we don't have enough food for ourselves, the military commander plans to throw you women and children in the field and leave you to fend for yourself." The old man suddenly reached out and wiped Namu Zhong's chest, which startled Namu Zhong again, and the old man suddenly smiled lewdly: "If you are an understanding person, I will give you a few more wheat cakes~~"

On that night, the Ming army released more than 30 women and children.

Namu Zhong didn't care about cleaning the things left in his body, so he carried a few wheat cakes from the old man, and fled for his life with Bogol and a group of released female dependents. This group of Jiannu who were lucky to survive walked in the barren mountains and mountains for four days, and met a patrol of Jiannu cavalry.

"Huh? If you are really the mother and brother in the palace, how can you come to Liaoyang in such embarrassment? The small leader of Jiannu, Actun, was surprised: "Two days ago, a father-in-law of Shengjing came to pass on His Majesty's secret decree, saying that the Liaoyang garrison general Long Gudong should lead the Liaoyang soldiers and horses to Shengjing to transfer a batch of grain and send it to the front line of Shanhaiguan. ”

"Shengjing was burned by the Southern Barbarians, where is there any food??" Zilharang's Sanfujin Cobalt Hasselblad has a straight temperament and a fast mouth

Acton was taken aback, "This Fujin, what are you talking nonsense?" Who burned Shengjing? ”

"A few days ago, I was attacked by the Southern Barbarians, and the Southern Barbarians burned and killed the prostitution~~" The Cobalt Hasselblad clan was about to say it in detail, when suddenly a few knights rushed from the direction of Liaoyang Road, shouting in Manchu: "Actun Niulu is not good~~Shengjing~~Shengjing~~"

"What's wrong with Sheng Jing?" Acton came to believe that the Cobalt Hasselblad was not just talking

"Shengjing was ruined by the Southern Barbarians~" The person who came cried, "That's miserable, hundreds of thousands of people in the city have almost been killed, and those who don't die are better off than dead." The corpses filled the entire city, and the stench could be smelled miles away! ”

Acton's head buzzed, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Then I'm Ama and Eniang~~"

"Those who didn't die in the city had their hands and feet cut off, their eyes pierced, and their tongues cut out~~Rather than living like this, it was better to die~" The people who came couldn't help but cry loudly

"Ah~" Acton yelled, fell from his horse, and a group of small soldiers hurriedly pinched people for Acton, and it took a long time to wake Acton up

At this time, Longgu Dong also rushed to the outskirts, his eyes were red and swollen like rotten peaches, "Brother Acton, we want to take revenge!" ”

Acton was finally woken up, and as soon as he saw Long Gudong, he also hugged him and cried loudly, "Let's go, let's go to Shanhaiguan and ask the emperor to avenge the people of Shengjing." ”

"Yes~Go to Shanhaiguan~." Long Gu Dong saw Namu Zhong and the others, and said in surprise: "Who are these people?" ”

Acton replied: "Their concubine in Shengjing was taken captive by the Southern Barbarians, but I heard that the Southern Barbarians did not have enough food for themselves, so they released the women and children among them. ”

"Lack of food in the army?" Long Gu Dong muttered: "Dare to ask the concubine, how many people are there in the Southern Barbarians?" ”

Namu Zhong thought for a while and said, "Let's talk about five or six thousand people. ”

Long Gu Dong frowned, "The army and the young Zhuang have gone to Shanhaiguan, and the Liaoyang garrison is only a thousand people, it seems that we still have to go to Shanhaiguan and ask the emperor to return to the army." ”

It is said that at this time, Huang Taiji's body became weaker and weaker, and he could not ride a horse, so his subordinates could only prepare a carriage to send Huang Taiji. At noon on September 1, Huang Taiji's carriage arrived less than three miles away from Shanhaiguan. Although the coachman was very careful, he woke up Huang Taiji, who was taking a nap.

"Are you going to Shanhaiguan?" Huang Taiji only felt a little dizzy

"Back to Your Majesty, there is less than half a mile left." The little eunuch replied

"Stop!" Huang Taiji hurriedly shouted

"Wow!" The carriage came to an abrupt halt

Huang Taiji took a deep breath and walked out of the carriage, "Change your clothes, dress for me." ”

"Wow!" The little eunuch hurriedly took out Huang Taiji's robes, bows and arrows, quivers, and swords from the box, and put them on for Huang Taiji one by one

After dressing, Huang Taiji said to Balaya, who was stationed at the side of the carriage: "You~ come down and give me the horse." ”

"Your Majesty~Your body~" Naba Laya hesitated for a moment, but in exchange for a slap from Huang Taiji

"Bastard, I'm alive and well~ I'm sick and unharmed, why can't I ride a horse?" Huang Taiji kicked Nabala off the horse and jumped from the wheel to the horse with a very dashing motion

"Your Majesty is mighty~" Huang Taiji's hand was exchanged for the cheers of the barayas

"Roar~" Huang Taiji took the lead, leading a group of Balaya to ride through the outpost of the Jiannu army

"Mighty~" Huang Taiji's sassy and heroic posture riding a horse also won the applause of the Jiannu army on the road

"Ministers greet Your Majesty~"

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Dolgon, Mang Gurtai, Dudu, Haoge and others knelt together to welcome Huang Taiji

"Everything is fine in Shengjing, and the generals should do their best to annihilate the Ming army in Shanhaiguan in one fell swoop." Huang Taiji said in a spirited manner

"In accordance with His Majesty's will." The generals said in unison

After the tent was dispersed, Dolgon, Dudu, and Azig gathered together to drink wine and eat meat

"I thought that the emperor was not young, and in recent years, he has been in poor health, this time Concubine Chen is critically ill, I thought he would be hit hard, but now it seems~" Du Du took a sip of wine

Azig also said: "Yes, I heard that when he went to Shengjing, he rode a horse overnight, and when he came back, he could even ride a horse and cross the knife." ”

"Hmph~" Dolgon snorted coldly, "Have you noticed if there is dust on his face and cloak?" Are there any sweat stains on his clothes? Does the horse under the crotch sweat? ”

These words left Azig speechless, and he really didn't pay attention

"There was no dust on his face, no sweat stains, and so was his cloak, and it had neat creases, evidently just taken out of the box; The war horse under his crotch did not sweat, and his snort was not big, indicating that he had not run much distance. Dorgon laughed, "So, he's just changed his clothes not far from here." ”

"Is it to hide his physical weakness?" Azig asked

Dolgon smiled, "That's right, to cover it up." ”

Azig nodded, "Then since he's come to this point, it means that her days are numbered." Fourteenth brother, let's make plans early. ”

"Yes, Uncle Fourteen~" Du Du also said

"Hmm~" Dorgon nodded, "Just wait for Dorgon to come back, and then we'll plan together." ”

Dorgon was about to accept when he heard a commotion outside the tent

"What's going on?" Du Du angrily lifted the curtain of the tent, only to see that the soldiers outside were all gathered in twos and threes, either crying or scolding

"What's the noise?" Du Du grabbed a soldier and asked

"Shengjing~~Shengjing was attacked by the Southern Barbarians~~~Eniang~~" The little soldier cried loudly

"Nonsense~" Du Du said angrily: "Evil words confuse the public, disturb the morale of the army, be careful that I kill you." ”

The little soldier wiped his tears, "Do you dare to talk nonsense like this?" Liaoyang's brothers met the concubine Niangniang of Lintoe Palace on the outskirts of Liaoyang and escorted them all the way. That's what the mother said, will the mother talk nonsense? ”

"Is it true? That~~~" Du Du's head buzzed, and he didn't dare to think about it further

That night, Huang Taiji's golden tent was already in chaos, and there were those who cried loudly, those who slashed the table with knives, and those who hit the pillar with their heads. There was also chaos in the camp outside the tent, and some soldiers even destroyed weapons to express their grief

"Your Majesty, you want to avenge the people of Shengjing~"

"Your Majesty, my mother died too miserably~"

"Your Majesty ~ I ~~~~~~~~~~~"

"That's enough~" Huang Taiji yelled, "What's the use of crying?" Can the dead Eight Banners Fathers come back to life? Huang Taiji's majestic voice like a lion's roar suddenly overshadowed the voices of everyone in the tent, and everyone wrapped Dolgon, and they didn't dare to shout loudly anymore

"The incident of Shengjing was born ten days ago, it was the critical moment when we besieged Wu Sangui, I didn't say it, it was because I was afraid that the army's morale would be discouraged and I would miss a big event." Huang Taiji said bitterly

Mang Gurtai was the first to disagree, he said: "Wu Sangui can't be killed today, he will kill again tomorrow, he can't kill this year, and he can kill again next year, but what about our family?" Mang Gurtai's eyes were bloodshot, and his fists were clenched

Azig also said: "I think what Brother Qi said makes sense, there are many ministers in the Southern Dynasty, I want to have Xiong Tingbi and Sun Chengzong when he died, Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan when he left, and Yuan Chonghuan who died and then come to Wu Sangui." But we only have one brother and sister, grandma and mother? ”

Zilharang said: "Your Majesty has a point, is it possible that everyone is so noisy that the dead relatives can come back to life?" ”

Dai Shan's grandson Adali said unceremoniously: "That's because Prince Zheng, your Fujin is not dead, so you are talking about cool things!" ”

"Bastard~" Lao Daishan gave Adali a hard slap, "Is this the attitude of talking to your elders?" Bastard thing~" After scolding, Dai Shan said to Huang Taiji again: "Your Majesty, how to decide, please show your Majesty~"

Huang Taiji was very satisfied with Dai Shan's performance, so he said: "It's been almost ten days, and by the time we catch up to the dangerous mountain fort, I'm afraid that the southern barbarians who attacked Shengjing will have already fled into North Korea." Instead of hurting his ten fingers, it is better to cut off his fingers, and we will ~~~~" Before Huang Taiji's voice fell, he listened to a commotion outside the tent

"Come, go outside the tent to give orders, whoever is clamoring, correct the Fa on the spot." Dai Shan shouted outside the tent

"Oh no~" A yellow flag of Balaya rushed into the tent, almost colliding with Dai Shan who was standing at the door of the tent, "The Ming army slaughtered our hometown~"

At this time, there were also pawns who crawled forward in embarrassment, saying that someone from Liaoyang had just come, saying that the southern barbarians had broken through Liaoyang City three days ago, and they had been slaughtered again, and then went to the direction of Jinzhou.

At this time, Huang Taiji's imperial tent was completely fried, and many little Baylors and Beizi shouted that even if they killed their heads, they would return to Shengjing and the like, even Dai Shan could only be silent, Huang Taiji saw that the people's hearts were like this, and he had no choice but to order the troops to retreat, and the soldiers and horses of each banner retreated every day and every other day.

On 26 September, Li Long's troops arrived in the capital, and a small number of infantry were stationed in the school grounds on the outskirts of the city. Then, Zhang Nai led 500 cavalry to escort more than 200 high-ranking prisoners of war into the city, took the royal road and went straight to the main gate of the Forbidden City, Chengtianmen, and entered Chengtianmen to sacrifice prisoners at noon. Along the way, the soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division lined up on both sides of the road to maintain order, and tens of thousands of people in the capital beat gongs and drums behind the soldiers. Singing and dancing. Celebrate this hard-won victory.

Since the Battle of Sarhu. The Ming army and the Jiannu army fought, except for a few defensive small victories, the rest were defeated or defeated. Either the whole army was annihilated or the land was humiliated, and the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty and the military and civilians talked about the change of color. Smell Liaodong chills. This time, Li Long killed 20,000 Jiannu in Korea, not to mention killing one prince, but also swept Liaodong, broke through the puppet capital of Jiannu, killed hundreds of thousands of enemies, and arrested a lot of wives and children of the Jiannu chieftain. In one fell swoop, it broke the nonsense that Jiannu was not satisfied with 10,000 and was invincible. In the face of such a big victory. Is there any reason for the people of the capital to cheer and rejoice?

"Commander Li is coming~~~" I don't know who shouted, Li Long, the number one hero of the great victory in Liaodong, rode a tall horse and appeared in front of the officials and people in the capital who were waiting for him with a spring breeze

Li Long wore the armor given by Emperor Chongzhen and rode on a tall horse produced in Liaodong. Fengshen is handsome and has handsome facial features, coupled with the honor aura effect bonus of the Great Broken Jiannu, which has caused countless girls who have just fallen in love to tremble, and their chests are like deer. Suddenly, the shouts of the people and the soldiers and civilians like a landslide and tsunami and the screams of the girls resounded throughout the city, and at the same time, rotten eggs and rotten cabbage were overwhelming, and raindrops fell on the heads of the Jiannu prisoners of war.

"I don't know if Li Junchang is married, I have three daughters in my family~"

"Still waiting for your daughter? Commander Li has long been the son-in-law of King De, and he is the county horse of the dynasty. ”

"The second room is also completed~"

"Xu Laosan, just like your daughter Da Banya, can you also be the second room for Commander Li? My daughter is pretty much the same~"

At noon, Zhang Naiwei's cavalry team stepped into the Chengtian Gate on time and looked in the direction of the Noon Gate. Fifteen hundred brocade guards have lined up on both sides of the noon gate, with embroidered spring knives at the waist, holding eagle beaks, standing solemnly, next to them are the civil and military officials in court clothes and feather crowns, and they are also holding Gui solemnly, and Chongzhen, who is in dragon robes and golden crowns, is sitting on top of the city tower. Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun stood on both sides.

In such a solemn atmosphere. Li Long immediately straightened the top of his head, Xiangyun Iron Hood, and asked Li Xindao on the side: "Am I still neatly dressed?" ”

Li Xin didn't dare to turn his head, but said in a low voice: "The commander is majestic and mighty. ”

"Hmm~" Li Long led the team to the Jinshui Bridge, let more than 200 slave prisoner cars line up, and then crossed the bridge on foot, knelt down on both knees in front of the city tower, and played loudly: "Minister Li Long, I am ordered to guard Shandong, Huguang, Henan, Anhui, Liaodong, North Korea, Lai Emperor Hongfu, and the soldiers of the army are dead, fortunately they live up to their mission." In the battle of North Korea, more than 20,000 enemies were killed, and the rank of Prince Yu Duoduo was built; In the battle of Shenyang, more than 600,000 slaves were killed, 45,000 were ranked, and more than 200 people were captured by the chieftain and the thief. Now dedicated to the noon gate, please the emperor falls! ”

"Spread the decree and put Ling Chi, the son of Dongyu, to death! The person who has a wife and concubine. It's all cut in half! The rest of the Dongyu family members handed over the three law divisions to discuss the crime! "Emperor Chongzhen rebelled, at this time, he felt that he finally had the feeling of the master of Zhongxing," Fan Wencheng, Zhang Cunren and other cadres were shown to the public. ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Li Long opened his throat and shouted, with Li Long taking the lead, the civil and military officials knelt down and sang together.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

In the shouting, Luo Yangxing waved his hand. Dozens of brocade guards lined up and escorted the wives and concubines of the Jiannu nobles to the prisoner car. The executioner of the criminal department, who had already been waiting for the scene to be on the execution platform in front of the door in the morning, immediately took action, first took off the prison clothes of Huang Taiji's six sons, tied them to the torture rack, and then pushed the female prisoner onto the guillotine. He slashed in turn, and then pulled out the bull's ear knife and began to cut the exposed muscles of the male prisoner little by little. During this time, flesh and blood splattered. The intestines and kidneys flow together. The screams of the Jiannu noblewoman who were cut in two by the waist were endless, mixed with the angry scolding and screaming of Huang Taiji's sons, the scene was unbearable, and the civil and military officials and other people present were shocked, and many people simply closed their eyes.

Only Li Long didn't seem to realize it, and he still watched it with relish, which also made the hearts of those imperial historians who suspected Li Long of lying about the number of enemies killed tremble, and said in their hearts that he was worthy of being a cold-blooded butcher who had slaughtered the city in Jiannu and Pseudo. Without personally ordering or participating in the massacre of tens of thousands of people, where would there be such calm? With his composure, it seems that the number of kills he reported is absolutely true.

After reading Ling Chi and the waist beheading, Emperor Chongzhen ordered the Wu Dynasty and rewarded the civil and military officials with soup.

Because Emperor Chongzhen is going to be in the Huangji Palace at noon today, so the early dynasty was also changed to the Huangji Hall to be held together, and the civil and military officials waited in line outside the noon gate from the fifth watch, and now the grain of rice has not entered, and one by one has already been hungry, fortunately, Emperor Chongzhen let the imperial dining room prepare soup for the hundred officials early.

But where can the ministers who have just seen Ling Chi and the waist cut eat meat soup now? So most of it was just a symbolic licking of the tongue

Emperor Chongzhen had just finished the soup, and when he looked up, he happened to see Wang Chengen trotting into the main hall, and couldn't help asking, "Wang Chengen, has Li Long arrived?" ”

Wang Chengen hunched his waist and gasped: "Your Majesty, you are waiting outside the hall." ”

Emperor Chongzhen said happily: "Xuan! ”

"The slave obeys." Wang Chengen agreed, turned around and shouted loudly, "Long live the purpose, declare ...... Li Long, the governor of Shandong, met ......"

The two eunuchs standing outside the hall hurriedly spoke: "Xuan...... Li Long, the governor of Shandong, met ......"

The ministers in the hall stopped whispering, and looked out of the hall one by one, and in the short, suffocating wait, a vigorous figure stepped on the golden steps in the noon sun, and the red general's robe reflected a dazzling brilliance under the sunlight, almost confusing the eyes of the officials.

Li Long followed the etiquette instructed by Wang Chengen, strode into the Golden Palace, then knelt down on the Danqi, and suddenly shouted: "Minister Shandong General Soldier, Li Long, long live my emperor, long live......

Emperor Chongzhen said happily: "Aiqing is flat." ”

"Long live thanks."

Li Longton bowed again, and then stood up and stood proudly on the temple.

The eyes of the civil and military officials focused on Li Long, and Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, bowed lightly, and secretly cheered in his heart, this is not the first time Li Long has seen it, but this time he saw it, he looked more and more heroic

Emperor Chongzhen said: "Li Aiqing, you led a lone army deep into Liaodong, destroyed the nest of Jiannu in one fell swoop, and captured the family of the slave chieftain Taiji, giving Jiannu an unprecedented heavy blow. Aiqing can really be described as a great achievement, I am very pleased, I am very pleased. ”

"That's all Your Majesty's grace and kindness, and the soldiers use their lives." After that, Li Long took out a yellow silk package from his arms, held it high above the top and said loudly: "Thanks to Your Majesty's kindness, the minister is also lucky to have recovered a long-lost treasure. ”

The jade seal of the country is very important, it is not trivial, such a treasure Li Long will never dare to hide privately, not only can not hide it privately, but also hand it over as soon as he sees Emperor Chongzhen, otherwise it will be easy to be accused of a private possession of national weapons by the imperial historian of the court, then he will not be able to eat and go around.

"Treasures?" Emperor Chongzhen said happily, "I don't know what kind of treasure it is?" ”

"Long live, this treasure is ......" Li Long said this deliberately, and waited until he had whetted everyone's appetite before he suddenly said: "Inherit the jade seal of the country!" ”

Heirloom Jade Seal!?

The jade seal of the country that has been lost in the desert for more than 200 years!?

Emperor Chongzhen and the civil and military officials unconsciously held their breath for a moment, staring directly at the yellow silk package in Li Long's hand, if this yellow silk package is indeed the heirloom jade seal, then it can indeed be called a treasure, and it is a peerless treasure! The sudden appearance of the jade seal of the country brought the shock to Emperor Chongzhen and the civil and military officials far better than the battle of the sneak attack on Shenyang that they imagined.

Throughout the Chinese dynasties, they are very particular about the legitimacy of the monarchy, and the jade seal is the physical symbol of the monarch's power, you have the jade seal, you are the emperor who is ordered by the sky, if you do not pass on the jade seal, then you are not the true son of heaven who is ordered by the sky, it is a pseudo-dynasty and a pseudo-emperor!

Since the beginning of Hongwu, the jade seal of the Ming Dynasty has been lost.

Emperor Chongzhen tried his best to control the excitement in his heart, and said to the Ministry of Rites: "Xie Aiqing, test!" ”

Xie Sheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the yellow silk cloth bag from Li Long's hand and untied it layer by layer, and then carefully took out the five-inch jade seal of the country, and the ministers of the Ministry of Rites, Fang Fengnian, Zhang Sizhi, Chen Yan, and the cabinet assisted Cheng Jiming, and the second assistant Zhou Yanru, Wei Zhaocheng and other ministers began to carefully screen.

Half an hour later, Xie Sheng carefully held the jade seal of the country and knelt down on the danqi, so excited that his voice changed a little, and shouted sharply: "Long live, the ministers have checked it clearly, this jade seal is indeed the jade seal of the lost desert for more than 200 years!" ”

"Okay, great!" Emperor Chongzhen was overjoyed when he heard this, and stood up excitedly.

The return of the jade seal of the country is of great significance to the Ming Dynasty, and it is of great significance to the Ming Dynasty that is now in turmoil! In the ancient times of feudal superstition, it was easy for people to associate this incident with some kind of "providence", thinking that this was a precursor to the imminent revival of the Ming Dynasty.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live~" Li Long took the lead and shouted long live

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live," the ministers also shouted together

Chongzhen was so happy that a smile bloomed on his face, and he said loudly: "Li Aiqing, you say, how do you want me to reward you?" ”

Li Long arched his hand and said: "It is the duty of a courtier to be loyal to the country and serve His Majesty, and the minister does not dare to ask for any reward." ”

Chongzhen smiled: "The unknown reward and punishment are the actions of the faint king, do you want me to be the faint king?" ”

"The minister has a request, but I don't know whether to talk about it or not." Li Long said

"What request?" Chongzhen suddenly remembered Li Long's request to legalize his collection of commercial taxes and mining taxes in Shandong Town

Sure enough, Li Long said in a loud voice: "The minister implores His Majesty to allow the minister's territory to levy commercial taxes. "This little request has reached the bottom of this, and there is nothing that can not be granted.

Chongzhen also said: "Add the governor of Shandong, Li Longwei, the general of the country, the prince of Zhenguo, and entitle Shandong, Hebei, Anhui, Henan, and Huguang as Li Long to take care of it."

One day in September, when Huang Taiji came to the city of Hetuara again, his mood was depressed.

Although Jiannu controlled the entire northeast region and conquered the vast Mongolian steppe, it was vast and sparsely populated, and there were only a handful of large cities with a population of more than 10,000 virtues. But Shenyang, Liaoyang, and Guangning. Now, Shenyang, Liaoyang, and most of Jianzhou were slaughtered by Li Long, and Quang Ninh was not suitable as a temporary capital, so Huang Taiji had to return to Hetuara in embarrassment.

The cries for revenge rose wave after wave, but with the efforts of Huang Taiji, the bannermen still agreed to wait until the autumn and take revenge after receiving the autumn grain. As a result, the blue flag of Jierharang continued to be stationed in Yizhou, and the white flag of Wu Sangui Dolgon, who monitored Shanhaiguan, was stationed in Guangning, and the Zhenghongqi of Daishan and the red flag town guarded Gaizhou and Fuzhou, and was responsible for the aftermath of the two cities. And Huang Taiji himself led the two yellow flags to garrison Hetuala.

Huang Taiji walked into the Great Yamen of the Khan Palace with steps heavier than his heart. The Great Yamen of the Khan Palace is the birthplace of the Eight Banners, also known as the Golden Luan Palace, the Zun Horn Platform, which is the heart of Hetuala, located on the high hill on the north side of the ancient city. In November of the 43rd year of Wanli (15 years of Lu 15 AD), Nurhachi changed the black flag of the original 4 flags of the Manchu people of yellow, white, red and black to a blue flag in Hetuala, and added 8 flags with yellow, white, red and blue. On the first day of the first lunar month of this year, Nurhachi, who was 58 years old and held the "Eight Banners", ambitiously called himself Khan in the Great Yamen of the Hetuala Khan Palace, and called himself Khan, and the Dajin Kingdom was born. Since then, a brand-new and magnificent first capital of the Qing Dynasty, Hetuala, has stood on the land of Kanto, and at the same time, the idea of entering the Central Plains and dominating the world has been brewed in Nurhachi's mind.

Huang Taiji walked into the main hall, and saw at a glance that the center was the throne of Nurhachi who ascended the throne and called Khan, in front of the throne was the dragon book case of Nurhachi's review and folding, and there were crane lotus wax tables, smokers and incense pavilions on the east and west sides of the dragon book case. Eight flags are placed on the left and right sides of the throne.

Huang Taiji's steps became slower and heavier, and he couldn't help but walk to the Khan's dormitory, which was adjacent to the Great Yamen of the Khan's Palace. The dormitory is divided into 4 buildings. The east room is the bedroom where Nurhachi and his beloved concubine Abahai live, with two circles in the south and north, the middle two rooms are the places where the Khan holds sacrificial activities, and the west room is the place where Nurhachi's concubines and concubines live together. According to historical records, the Khan King and the concubine sleep in the south kang in winter, sleep in the north kang in summer, there is a kang table on the opposite side of the kang, the brazier is the place where the Khan King smokes and tastes tea, there are 10,000 characters in the west, the south, the north and the west are connected on 3 sides, the Manchu language calls it Tuwa, it has two functions, on the one hand, it can solve the problem of sitting and lying down, on the other hand, it can heat up through the heat dissipation of the kang surface. It can be described as killing two birds with one stone, practical and convenient. But 1 Lu concubines share a room, and when you think about it, it feels a little strange and incredible.

As he walked, Huang Taiji, who was in a trance, suddenly realized that he had somehow walked to the well of King Khan. The Khan King Well is located in the middle of the inner city, southwest of the Yamen Gangxia of the White Banner, and is the only well in the city of Hetuala. For more than 300 years, the soldiers and civilians in the city have used this water, so it has the reputation of "thousands of troops and horses do not drink dry". Because Nurhachi "built a yuan and called Khan" in this city, it was named "Khan King Well". According to the records of the Qing Dynasty, Nurhachi plundered tens of millions of gold, silver, and a large number of treasures. Because the Manchus were nomadic at that time and had a strong sense of reserve of food and property, this huge amount of treasure was secretly transported to Hetuala, the capital of the Dajin Kingdom at that time, and hidden in an ancient well known as the Well of the King of the Khan.

Because Shengjing was devastated, it would take a lot of money to rebuild it. If Huang Taiji wants to take revenge, he needs to rely on the power of the Mongolian tribes, which also needs money to envelop him. In short, Huang Taiji now continues to make a lot of money. I am afraid that the money in the treasury of Shengjing Mansion was moved away by the Ming army, even if it was not moved, and it would not be able to be cleaned up in a while and a half when it was pressed under the rubble.

"Yes~~Father~ For the sake of the Qing Dynasty, in order to raise your last wishes, forgive me for not being filial!" Huang Taiji patted on the marble well railing of the Khan Wangjing, "Come on, dig for me~~"

During his lifetime, Nurha wanted to pass the throne to Dolgon, but as soon as he died, the seal of the Khan fell into the hands of the 8th Emperor Taiji. Although Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne, the gold and silver in the treasury were still in the hands of Abahai. Afraid of long nights and dreams, Huang Taiji gave an ultimatum to Abahai, who refused to eat hard and soft, either hand over all the treasures or be buried with Nurhachi. To Huang Taiji's surprise, Abahai actually chose the dead path of martyrdom for Nurhachi. After Abahai's death, Huang Taiji, who was preoccupied with the treasure, hollowed out his mind, and finally under his obscene torture, the officials of the Internal Affairs Office revealed the whereabouts of the treasure, that is, it was transported to the Khan Wangjing through the secret passage of the Internal Affairs Office. Therefore, the impatient Huang Taiji immediately ordered people to search for melons from the two entrances of the Khan Wangjing and the secret passage. However, the two groups of people who were sent to hunt for treasure disappeared without hearing from them, and the rope used to convey the message was somehow torn and broken by some animal.

Annoyed and angry, Huang Taiji ordered to dig three feet into the ground, putting on a posture that he would never stop until he dug up the treasure. Unexpectedly, as soon as the sergeants picked up their shovels and pickaxes and were about to dig, the originally clear sky suddenly became black clouds, and at the same time, a thick cloud of smoke billowed out of the Khan King's well.

"Huang Taiji~~" A female voice sounded, and this shout, the tone was extremely resentful and sad

Huang Taiji was immediately frightened, and saw Abahai, who was forced to death by himself, standing at the mouth of the well, his pair of bitter and complaining eyes staring straight at him

"You~~You~~~" Huang Taiji was afraid and anxious, and his mouth stammered for a while

"You rebel who forgets money and doesn't want to make progress. This treasure is the national fortune of the Qing Dynasty, which will protect the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty and the eternal stability of the country. You come to dig now, and what you are digging is not a treasure, but the dragon vein of the Qing Dynasty. ”

The frightened Huang Taiji immediately knelt on the ground and bowed, "The mother concubine atonement~~The mother concubine atonement~~~ I vow not to look for treasure again." ”

As soon as the words fell, the sky opened and the fog dispersed, and everything returned to the same as before. The former wellhead passage and the secret passage of the secret room of the Ministry of Internal Affairs also collapsed in a roar at the moment when the clouds cleared and the fog dispersed

“………………”

"Your Majesty~~Your Majesty~~ Someone's coming, Your Majesty has fainted~~"

The frightened Huang Taiji was carried back to the dormitory by the minions, and that night, Huang Taiji fell unconscious, and the epistaxis was repeated, and the bleeding did not stop. Originally, there were imperial doctors in Shengjing who could be treated, but these imperial doctors were killed by Li Long on the charge of serving as a puppet official in the puppet dynasty. In the remote place of Hetuara in front of me, where can I find a doctor? As a result, the ministers were helpless and could only do it in a hurry.

Generally speaking, nosebleeds are not a problem, and it is okay to stuff them with a piece of tissue. But Huang Taiji's nosebleed is said to be quite weird, the flow is large, and it hasn't stopped, and it has been bleeding for several days, and there is no way.

Through modern medical analysis, Huang Taiji may have suffered from the following diseases before his death:

The first is high blood pressure, which is common in people who are obese, have a lot of salt intake, and are in a state of mental stress for a long time. According to the portrait of Huang Taiji that can be seen at present, it can be seen that Huang Taiji is obese, and since the first year of Chongde in the Qing Dynasty (1 Lu 3 Lu years), Huang Taiji ordered the Qing army to enter the customs four times on a large scale, in order to command the battle, the spirit has been in a state of tension for a long time, therefore, Huang Taiji is likely to suffer from high blood pressure.

This is followed by nosebleeds, and high blood pressure is one of the common causes of nosebleeds. When the patient's blood pressure rises suddenly, the intranasal blood vessels can rupture and cause nosebleeds before the intracerebral arteries rupture. Some patients who come with nosebleeds have their blood pressure measured and know that they have high blood pressure, whereas before that, the patient had never known that they had high blood pressure. Nosebleeds can buffer blood pressure and prevent bleeding from internal organs, especially in the brain, and from this point of view, as long as the amount of bleeding is not large, nosebleeds are not a bad thing. Acute epistaxis caused by hypertension is more common in middle-aged and elderly people, and the bleeding is mostly unilateral or bilateral, and can be intermittent and recurrent, and may also continue to bleed heavily. The amount of bleeding varies, ranging from a small amount of bleeding to hemorrhagic shock, with paleness, sweating, cold limbs, and even life-threatening. After Huang Taiji was 5o years old, he had a large number of nosebleeds many times, and "epistaxis did not stop, and he was promised to be a bowl (bowl)", indicating that Huang Taiji's high blood pressure was already very serious at this time.

The third is obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, it is known that obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is the source of many systemic diseases (including hypertension), according to clinical investigations, in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, more than 5o% of people have hypertension, and 3o% of patients with primary hypertension have obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. It can be seen from the portrait of Huang Taiji that after middle age, Huang Taiji is obese, has a short neck, and a small jaw, so it is likely that Huang Taiji also suffers from obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

The above three diseases will bring a high risk of stroke, which is extremely fatal. According to the Korean history books, on the sixth day of the fourth month, "the Qing people said in the Shizi Pavilion that the emperor was sick and dizzy, and he was willing to get Zhuli and see a famous doctor." He ordered to send the acupuncture doctor Liu Da, the medicine doctor Pu and so on. (Records of the Li Dynasty, Injo, vol. 44, p. 12). It can be seen from this passage that Huang Taiji suffers from wind dizziness and uses bamboo li. Zhuli is mainly used to treat phlegm, fever, and boredom. Huang Taiji worked hard all his life, and everything was more onerous in his later years, coupled with the death of Concubine Chen, he was overworked, his mood was uncomfortable, and his phlegm and fire rose, and he was bound to be dizzy, blood and heat surged, and he was dizzy. Plain phlegm is heavy, which can easily cause stroke and sudden death. Therefore, various sources indicate that Huang Taiji is likely to have died of a stroke in history

Outside the main hall, the solid mountain of the Yellow Banner is Zhen He Luohui, Melle Zhangjing Baiyintu, the escort commander Leng Seng Ji, and the forward commander Turg; Gushan Ezhen Tan Tai, Mel Zhangjing Tulai, Sonny, the commander of the Guardian Army, and Ao Bai, the leader of the forwards, gathered together and looked at each other speechlessly for a long time

After a long time, Sony spoke: "It seems that the emperor's time is running out." ”

He Luohui also nodded and said, "Yes, we don't plan for ourselves, we have to plan for the two yellow flags, right?" ”

"Only when the emperor's elder brother succeeds to the throne can we continue to maintain the prosperity of our two yellow flags." Ao Bai said

"The emperor has 11 sons and 14 daughters, in addition to the eldest brother Su Prince Haoge, there are also the second brother Luoge, the third brother Luobo, the fourth brother Yebushu, the fifth brother Shuosai, the sixth brother Gaosai, the seventh brother Changshu, the eighth brother, the ninth brother Fulin, the tenth brother Taosai, and the eleventh brother Bogol. Among them, the second, third, and eighth elder brothers died early, and the rest of the elder brothers were all captured by the Southern Barbarians. Right now, only Big Brother Hauge and Eleven Brother Bogol are left. "When Sony counted the names of your brothers, he was like a treasure, but in the end, he could only spread his hands and express his helplessness

Bai Yintu said: "Of course, it is Prince Haute of Lisu who wants to stand, do you want to go to that little hairy child of Ladbrogol?" ”

Tan Tai said: "Okay, the eight of us swear together, if anything happens to Your Majesty, we will support Big Brother Haoge as the emperor together." ”

"Make an oath, swear an oath~" Ao Bai was the first to point to the sky and said: "I swear to the sky, if the emperor returns to the sky, I will loyally support the big brother Haoge as the emperor, if there are two hearts, the sky will be destroyed." After that, Ao Bai said to the other seven people: "It's your turn~~"

So, Sony and the other seven people also swore to God one by one

Right now, the most important thing for Li Long is to regain the Golden State. To this end, Li Long also made a lot of preparations, such as sending a large number of Jinyi guards to reconnoiter in the area of Jinzhou, drawing detailed topographic maps and exploring the deployment of Jiannu troops; Try to find the local people, ask about some remote paths or dangerous places, etc.

After that, combined with the intelligence from all sides, Li Xin, Yang Dali, Pan Yuzhu and others formulated several alternative plans and submitted them to Li Long. After some discussion, it was finally decided to choose the Jinzhou Zhongzuo to land, establish an advance base, and make specific plans after finding out the situation of Jinzhou Jiannu. The left office of Jinzhou is today's Lushun area. The landing site chosen by Li Long is also today's Lushunkou.

Lushunkou has a long history, the Jin name is "Ma Shijin", the Tang Dynasty is called "Duli Town", the Yuan is called "Lion's Mouth", to the Ming Dynasty Hongwu four years (1371), Taizu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang sent Ma Yun, Ye Wang two generals to lead the troops from Shandong to cross the sea to guard Liaodong, because the sea journey is smooth sailing, the lion's mouth is renamed Lushunkou. 8。

Lushunkou is located in the southernmost part of the Liaodong Peninsula, which faces Shandong and Laizhou on the Shandong Peninsula across the sea, and guards the Beijing-Tianjin gateway like a pair of pincers. Surrounded by mountains, Lushunkou is a typical hilly terrain, with the east side facing the open sea, that is, the Yellow Sea, and the west side of the Tiger Tail Peninsula, which juts out into the sea, forming a natural harbor with only one fjord as the entrance. On the north side of the bay is the garrison of the Jinzhou Guard, which has two simple brick cities, but there are garrisons here

On 10 October, Li Xinbu, who landed as the first echelon, landed safely, and immediately set up an improvised position on the beachhead, nailed the prepared wooden stakes into the soil as quickly as possible to make a simple fence, and then the musketeers waited behind the fence. The follow-up troops went ashore one after another, and continued to build a fence with the military work. So layers of fences stretch inland from the beach like fish scales. 5。

According to the intelligence, there were 500 Han soldiers and eight banners stationed in the center of Jinzhou, and when the scouts sent by Li Xin returned, they said that there seemed to be no movement in the Jiannu in the Acropolis, but there was a group of people who looked like Jiannu people were coming this way.

As soon as they saw the banner of the Ming army, some people among the people cheered: "Wang Shi! Master Wang is here, I can go home later! The old showman, who was over half a hundred years old, was so excited that he bowed his head and bowed. However, while cheering, some people shrank back and tightened their burdens.

"Are you all Han?" Li Xin was very vigilant, for fear that it was a conspiracy played by Jiannu

"Of course it's Han~~" Lao Xiucai touched the braid on his head in disgust, "The old man is from Datong, Shanxi, and was taken away by Jiannu when Chongzhen was seven years old. ”

When Li Xin heard it, Lao Xiucai was indeed full of Shanxi accent, "Okay, you stay where you are, and when our army commander comes, you will make a decision." Come on, give them some dry food

"Order~" The soldier immediately took out some dry food from the camp and distributed it to these ragged refugees

Soon, Li Long also landed on this rich black land, when Li Long heard the cheers at the beginning, Li Long spontaneously had a strong sense of mission, but when he stepped on the shore, he did not see a more enthusiastic scene, from the eyes of these ragged people, he could only see fear, worry, panic, if not for that trace of expectation, he would never stop.

"Folks!" Li Long felt that he should say something, not so much to appease these people, but to give his soldiers a reason to fight.

"This official is the newly appointed Zhenguo Gong of the imperial court, the general, who led 100,000 Ming athletes to land in Lushun. Our soldiers, one is to attack Jiannu and restore their homeland; Second, for all the folks to regain their own homes! Li Long waved his arms vigorously. Land. Shouted loudly. The people below all looked at him silently, but did not react.

"Do you want to have your own home?" Li Long continued to wave his arms. Yelled at the people.

There was no unison cheering as he imagined, but Li Long could still clearly hear the east and the west, and responded sparsely.

"Want to ......"

"I want to ......"

"We want to go back ......"

"My home...... My wife and children...... "Someone cried bitterly, and the voice was extremely poignant.

Li Long stood on a high place. He saw many people wiping their eyes, and could hear mournful sighs, and if it weren't for the fact that there was no way, none of the people would want to leave their homes. Two hundred years ago, their ancestors came from inside the gate to outside the gate because of their livelihood and because of the forced migration of the imperial court, and worked the black soil. Trying to survive, the period was full of blood and tears, and there were countless of them. Two hundred years later. 3。 When the Jiannu Iron Horse set foot on their homeland, under the iron hooves, everyone was a slave, and in front of the butcher's knife, there was no reason to say, they could only leave their homeland again, carrying blood and tears, and wanted to find a way back to the interior of the country and a way to survive.

The soldiers who had just landed on the shore lined up in a neat line, and each time they lined up in a line, they would take neat steps and march to the shore under the orders of the team officer. Despite the adaptive training, the faces of the soldiers could not hide the tiredness, and many of them had not recovered from the severe seasickness. Still, they tried to keep their backs straight

In the direction of the temporary camp, the soldiers who had already settled in began to sing their military songs. 9。 It seems that every traveler likes to use it as a military song, but the lyrics of this song seem to be very appropriate to the background of the times at this time. The people, who had just been immersed in the pain of being uprooted from their homes, couldn't help but listen attentively, looked at each other suspiciously, and then turned their heads to the marching queue, and faintly felt that this army seemed to be different.

Lao Xiucai borrowed a dagger from Shandong Bing, and neatly cut off the braid at the back of his head, "It's a good sentence that China wants to let the Quartet come to congratulate~" cut off the braid, the old sleeve stretched out his hand to the soldier on the side, and shouted: "Come, give the old man a weapon, as long as there is still a breath, the old man will also be ambitious to eat Hulu meat, laughing and thirsty for Hun blood." ”

The people around laughed when they heard it, and teased: "The old man talks about juvenile madness~~"

Lao Xiucai said unconvinced: "Haven't you heard of Lao Ji Fu Fang, who is determined to be thousands of miles." In the twilight of a strong man, is he ambitious? ”

Li Long said with a smile: "Old gentleman, there is a lack of literate and hyphenated scribes in our army, so leave the matter of killing the enemy to the young men." ”

"Hmm~~" Li Long spoke, and the old Xiucai couldn't help but know how to lift, so he could only rearrange his clothes and restore the appearance of an old Xiucai and an old Confucian.

The battle to regain the Acropolis of Jinzhou can hardly be called a battle, due to the loss of naval patrol, the appearance of the Ming army caught the 800 traitor troops in the city off guard. Li Xin, as the vanguard, took Jinzhou City in less than half an hour. Half of the 800 traitors were killed and half captured.

With the support of the emperor, Li Long's "great cause of recovering Liao" naturally became more enthusiastic. After capturing the Acropolis of Jinzhou, the Ming army began to fortify the Acropolis of Jinzhou. The Acropolis was originally a square gate with bricks and stones on the outside and adobe in the middle, which was more than 300 zhang long from north to south and more than 100 zhang wide from east to west. There are urn cities at the north and south gates, and the moat outside the city is more than four zhang wide and more than one zhang deep. The west of the Acropolis is more than one mile away from the coast of Jinzhou Bay, and there are mountains and hills outside the east gate, only in the middle is an official road and a flat land, and the Acropolis of Jinzhou is like an iron lock, guarding the Jinzhou Peninsula behind it.

It would take a lot of time for the 100,000-strong army to land all at once, so Li Long had to hold the position in Jinzhou first.

This kind of terrain is extremely favorable to Li Long. As long as he pinched the flat land in front of Jinzhou City for four or five miles, he could block Jiannu from the outside, and if Jiannu wanted to make a detour from the hilly and mountainous areas to the east, he would lose the advantage of cavalry, and Li Long was completely sure that he could use infantry to kill and injure him in large numbers in the mountains. Golden State belongs to the temperate semi-humid monsoon climate zone. The hilly land in the production area is brown soil, and the soil is barren, which is not suitable for the growth of crops. However, there is a salinized meadow soil in the Pingchuan area, which has cultivated excellent mother grass. The main forage grasses are white grass, yellow back, wild grain grass, dogtail grass and Asteraceae grass of the grass family, etc., and there are very few leguminous forage grasses, which are preferred by livestock. As a result, the Golden State produces an excellent breed of horses – the Golden State Horse.

The Jinzhou horse has a dry and sturdy physique, a gentle temperament, a well-proportioned structure, and a beautiful body shape. Muscle fullness. The limbs are dry, the joints are obvious, the tubes are long, the tendons are distinct, elastic, the bulb joints are large and strong, the hooves are of moderate size, and the hoof is tough. It has the advantages of uniform structure, large pulling force, fast degree, strong staying power, and resistance to rough feeding. It is an excellent horse breed that can be used as both animal power and war horses. As soon as the cavalry general Zhang Nai arrived in Jinzhou, he found two Jinzhou horses to test ride, and after trying, he immediately suggested to Li Long to equip a large number of Jinzhou horses to form his own real cavalry.

The original population of southern Liaoning was not large, and fish, shrimp and shellfish were quite abundant. The fishermen's harvest can somewhat relieve the pressure on food. In addition, the Ming army seized a number of nearby islands. For example, Hiroshima Island and Nagayama Island in the sea east of Golden State, as well as unknown small islands around. At present, these islands can only be used for simple reclamation and as a docking point for fishermen, but fortunately, after Shang Kexi's naval army was destroyed by the two naval battles in the Yellow Sea, Jiannu did not have a naval army in southern Liaoning, as long as some cantonment troops were arranged to garrison the cantonment, control over these islands could be ensured.

In order to maintain order in Jinzhou, Li Long divided all the Liao people in Jinzhou into several parts, and the Jiannu people all went to open mountains and quarry stones, and let them do whatever work was hard and dangerous.

The Han people, as long as they are military households, take the essence and eliminate the weak. The strong Jinzhou battalion, as a reserve for the Liao army, numbered about 2,000 people, responsible for maintaining local order, some of which were stationed on the islands. 8。

All artisan households, including military craftsmen and civilian craftsmen, are all organized into the artisan camp and assigned to various factories and construction sites to engage in work related to their own skills. It's really not needed by the Golden State for the time being. It was also sent to Shandong with the empty transport ship and handed over to Sun Hejing and Shen Lusu for arrangement. The factories in Shandong and Haiyangwei are also in high demand for craftsmen. The rest were all put into the labor battalions, and arranged for farm work, fishing, salt boiling, quarrying, and other miscellaneous work such as building castles.

Li Long made such a big move in Jinzhou, and Alida, who was stationed in Fuzhou, was already gearing up and eager to try. It's just that the news reached Hetuala, but there was no reply, which made Alida suffocated. So he immediately went to Gaizhou and found Shuoto to discuss the attack on Jinzhou.

Shuo Tuo said disapprerovingly: "What about still fighting the Southern Barbarians, the Great Qing Kingdom is about to change the sky, don't you know yet?" ”

"You mean the emperor?" Aleda said in an inquiring tone

Shuotuo nodded and replied: "Hetuara is now the four of Marfa (grandfather), the twelfth uncle, the fourteenth uncle, and the eldest brother Haoge to deal with political affairs in the court, which shows that the emperor's dragon body is in danger. ”

Alida suddenly became excited, "If this is the case, Marfa (grandfather), the fourteenth uncle, and the eldest brother are the most powerful contenders for the throne." Could it be that our two red flags will really become two yellow flags? ”

Shuoto shook his head and said, "Marfa has long been old and decrepit, and he has no heart to compete for the throne. 8。 Coupled with the incident in the ninth year of Tiancong, Marfa completely lost any hope for the throne. ”

After the great victory of conquering the Chahar Mongols in the ninth year of Tiancong (1 Lu 35 AD), the empress of Lin Dan Khan led her people to surrender to Houjin. As a result, it led to a storm of robbing wives of the Houjin princes and Baylors

At that time, Huang Taiji ordered Zhu Beile to choose a favorite person among the Chahar Mongolian noblewomen who came to join him, and Dai Shan took a fancy to the rich and beautiful Queen Mother Sutai. However, because the Empress Dowager Sutai was the wife and sister of Ji'er Harang, Huang Taiji had already promised Zi'er Harang and could not agree to do good, so he took a step back and let him marry the Empress Dowager. Dai Shan thought that the Empress Dowager was poor and married the rich Chahar Khan daughter Taisong Gege.

The matter should have come to an end, but Dai Shan refused to give up, relying on himself to be the brother of Huang Taiji, the big Baylor in the country, and then repeatedly proposed to marry the Empress Dowager Su Tai as his wife, Huang Taiji has not been allowed, and Dai Shan is angry. 3。 This dissatisfaction soon aroused the resentment that Dai Shan had buried in his heart for many years, and if he had resentment, he had to find an outlet, and the opportunity to vent his anger would come, almost at the same time.

When Zhubeile chose to marry a Chahar Mongol noblewoman, Hauge married Birch Fujin, which annoyed his mother-in-law, the Hada princess Mangguji.

Mang Guji is the daughter of Nurhachi and the Jifujin Fucha clan, and is the half-sister of Mang Gurtai, the half-sister of Derge, and the half-sister of Huang Taiji. married for the first time Hada Bel Lvur Gudai, so she is called Princess Hada; At the end of the Mandate of Heaven, his husband died, and he married the Mongolian Ao Han Department of Zonomu Duling. Mang Guji had two daughters with her ex-husband, one married Yue Tuo and the other married Haoge. As soon as she heard that Haorge had married another Mongolian noblewoman, she said angrily, "My daughter is still here, why did Hauge marry him again?" She has always had a bad relationship with Huang Taiji, and at this time she was even more angry with him, full of resentment, and without Huang Taiji's consent, she went home from Yangshimuhe, which welcomed the triumphant army. 8。 This action is a clear demonstration of grievances and demonstrations to Huang Taiji. It seems that she, Mang Gurtai, and Derge have inherited a fierce personality from their mother, and in the sinister political struggle, they will only end up in tragedy.

Dai Shan treats Princess Hada well, and has always been in step with Huang Taiji, and has not been in harmony for a long time. But at this time, when Mang Guji passed by the front of the Daishan camp on the way home, Daishan was unusual, and together with his great fortune, he welcomed Mang Guji into the big tent, set up a big banquet to entertain him, and gave him a famous horse and wealth - naturally because of the same disease.

Upon learning of this, Huang Taiji was very angry, not only sent someone to ask Dai Shan's intentions, but also in anger, he left all Baylor and returned to Shengjing alone, and after entering the palace, he closed the palace door, and did not allow the ministers of Baylor to enter the court. This act was like a child's anger, but it frightened the ministers of the Beyles, and they all knelt at the palace gate, and pleaded with the Khan to come to the court, and immediately put the matter on file. 3。

Huang Taiji's coercion succeeded. The next day, he summoned the ministers of the Inner Sanctum, and in a loud and lengthy reprimand of the six sins of Daizen, the central meaning of which was to rebuke the centrifugal tendencies of Daizen. The ministers of Zhubeile proposed to remove the name of Daishan Dabeile, cut off the Lord of Shuobeile, take ten oxen and record his subordinates, and fine him ten thousand taels of silver. Mang Guji removed the title of princess, seized the Manchurian cattle to which she belonged and fined her.

Seeing that Dai Shan pleaded guilty, Huang Taiji was relieved of Dai Shan Belle Jue and returned to Shi Niu Lu's subordinates. Mang Guji was also exempted from punishment, except that she was forbidden to associate with her relatives.

For the sake of the stability of the country at that time, Huang Taiji's move was also necessary. If Daishan and Mang Guji are united, it will inevitably lead to the possibility of the two red flags and the three banners of the Zhenglan Banner and the opposition of the Khan's power, because in the sixth year of Tiancong (AD 1 Lu 32), after the head of the Zhenglan Banner Mang Gurtai died violently, his younger brother Dege succeeded as the banner master. 4。 Derge was obviously sympathetic to his own sister Mangguji. Because he was also fined for favoring the princess in this incident. And he also seems to be a violent man, he was punished in September, and on the second night of the tenth month, he also died violently. Like Mang Gurtai at the time of his death, the death of the Doga was treated with dignity by the Khan's personal funeral. When Mang Gurtai died, Huang Taiji wept bitterly in front of the spirit, and took off his hat and tassels, wore mourning clothes, lived in the side hall, and personally sent the spirit to the dormitory before returning to the palace; Before the spirit of Derge, Huang Taiji cried even more, and only left after the third watch, did not return to the palace and set up a tent in front of the Phoenix Tower, and withdrew the food for three days to show mourning. Under the repeated persuasion of the ministers of Zhubele, the Khan returned to the palace.

Enwei is used together, Huang Taiji has been used very skillfully and very smartly, and it seems that he can stop. However, in December of this year, Huang Taiji announced a major rebellion case to Zhubeile: Mang Guji, Mang Gurtai, Derge and Zonomu Duling, Leng Seng Ji, etc., had sworn to the Buddha to take the throne. Land. Due to the separate accusations of Zonom Duling and Leng Seng Ji, it was confirmed, and the physical evidence of the rebellion was found, that is, the sixteen wooden plate seals hidden by Mang Gurtai, which were written as "the seal of the emperor of the Jin Kingdom"!

When all the beylors heard this, they were all angry, and the crime was serious, and the punishment was very severe. Mang Guji and his half-brother Ang Alla and Mang Gurtai's son Epilun were all killed, and the other people who participated in the oath and their relatives, friends, brothers, brothers and nephews were all killed, and all the sons of Mang Gurtai and Derge were also demoted to concubines, and the population and property under them were all returned to the Khan King, so that the Zhenglan Banner fell into the hands of Huang Taiji, and from then on, the Son of Heaven made the Three Banners a rule.

There is no exact number of people killed in this big case, but in terms of the slaughter within the family, it is probably no less than the one when Nurhachi killed his brother, and it is the first time that Ling Chi has used such an extremely cruel criminal law with a thousand knives. 3。 And that's not all. The two daughters of Mang Guji, who led this series of events, also suffered bad luck one after another. Hauge solemnly announced his bold words: "I am the son of the emperor, and since the mother of my wife wants to harm my father, how can I live with the daughter who murdered my father!" He killed his wife himself! Yue Tuo was then squeezed into the cracks, and had to express to Huang Taiji that he wanted to kill his wife, this kind of public request actually expressed Yue Tuo's unbearableness, and also praised Huang Taiji's self-proclaimed lenient generals. Huang Taiji really stopped Yue Tuo. But later, there was an inexplicable enchanting incident in Yue Tuo's house, and Yue Tuo's wife, the eldest daughter of Mang Guji, was convicted of claustrophobia and never allowed to meet Yue Tuo.

In the end, the emperor instructed him to give the blessing of the Derge class to his younger brother Azig; Mang Gurtai's Fujin was given to his nephews Haoge and Yue Tuo respectively. - Probably to compensate these two wives who killed and divorced their wives.

Killing chickens to show monkeys, Dai Shan's mood at this time is probably not just a simple rabbit dying and fox sadness
