Chapter 206: Changping
After Xie Xiuniang served Wang Dou and got up, she personally put on a set of armor for him one by one, which was the set of armor captured by Wang Dou in the seventh year of Chongzhen, which was captured from the Yala soldiers of Qing Bing County, and the armor leaves were made of fine iron, and the armor was coated with silver-white armor paint, which made the whole set of armor look very dazzling with silver and shining, and had the function of protecting rain and rust. Only the helmet with a high lightning rod was replaced, and it was replaced with an iron helmet of the Ming army general.
Red tasseled phoenix wings, neck guards, before putting on the iron helmet, Wang Dou first put on a warm wool Xiaokai, which is the equipment that the generals of the 5 Dou Army have. Finally, a thick wool coat with a bright red exterior is put on.
Seeing Xie Xiuniang's eyes red, reluctant and worried, Wang Dou hugged her small and delicate body, and said, "Xiuniang don't worry, I will come back safely." ”
Xie Xiuniang said with a strong smile: "I believe that Xianggong Ji people have their own natural appearance. Xiuniang will take good care of the children at home and serve the Tibetan well, so the husband can only go out to fight with peace of mind, and don't have to worry about the family. ”
The two of them went out of the room, only to see Ji Junjiao wearing a pure white mink fur, standing quietly outside the door, I don't know how long they stood there, when they saw Wang Dou coming out, they smiled at him, and didn't say anything, together with Xie Xiuniang, they accompanied Wang Dou left and right.
When she came to the lobby, her mother Zhong sat in front of the hall and waited, Liu Qing and Liu Ji were behind her, rubbing her shoulders and knocking her back, and the table was already full of rich breakfast.
Seeing Wang Dou come out, Zhong's expression was very calm, and he said, "Dou'er, are you all cleaned up?" Meals o' bar.
After everyone quietly finished breakfast, the Zhong family sent Wang Dou out of the house, Xie Yike led a group of guards to wait outside the door, many people gathered outside the house, waiting for the families of the soldiers, there were also military gentry in the city, Xie Yike's wife Chu Shi also stood quietly in the crowd, and the young lady of the Zhizhou Mansion. When Wang Dou came out, everyone was in a commotion, but they didn't speak.
Before leaving to get on the horse, Wang Dou looked at his mother, who was already old, and could no longer hold back the excitement in his heart. He flicked the scarlet cloak behind him, knelt down on one knee in front of his mother, and choked up, "Mother, the child has gone." ”
Zhong's eyes were also red, and she said loudly: "Child, just go, don't want to be a mother, my old bones can stand it." Our Wang family has fought for the Ming Dynasty for generations, take out your manly spirit, don't lose the face of our ancestors, and look forward to your victorious return in the house for my mother. ”
Wang Dou looked at Xie Xiuniang and Ji Junjiao again, Xie Xiuniang was just reluctant and worried, but Ji Junjiao smiled sweetly at Wang Dou, her eyes were full of encouragement and tenderness. Looking at the simple and reverent faces, Wang Dou's heart was surging, he suddenly pulled out his sword, pointed obliquely forward, rolled over the earth like spring thunder, and the overwhelming cry sounded: "Ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories." ”
Everyone was shouting hoarsely, and the majestic sound of ten thousand voices resounded one after another, resounding inside and outside the security city. Wang Dou shouted: "Go on the expedition." ”
Wang Dou held the flag to open the road, behind him was a large force of neatly marching troops, out of the teaching field, from the Baoan Zhou City to the official road of the Acropolis, has been densely covered with the people of farewell, Wang Dou's army came over, immediately crackling firecrackers exploded, all kinds of gongs and drums sounded in unison, an old man said loudly: "I wish the general a victorious return." "A heaven-shattering cheer, every citizen, is loudly cheering to the soldiers on the march.
Looking at all this, Wang Dou's eyes were a little moist, these people are all self-gathering, self-joying, military and civilian, it is not in vain that they have worked hard in Baoan Prefecture for many years.
He waved his hands silently, and one by one, the sergeants marched through the walls on both sides with their heads held high.
When he arrived at the edge of the Yanghe River, Li Zhenling, the governor of Baoan Prefecture, led a cadre to see him off here, and saw Wang Dou's army coming, thousands of strong soldiers, a sea of armor, and dense chariots, everyone was moving, Wang Dou did not hide his strength at this time, and everyone he saw was surprised. Li Zhenling took a glass of wine and said loudly: "I wish the general a smooth journey and victory in the battle." ”
Last night, Li Zhenling led the squires in the city to set up a banquet to see off Wang Dou, and today he came to see him off, and Wang Dou took the wine and drank it all.
Baoan Prefecture Confucianism Zhengfu Mingqi also took a glass of wine, and said to Wang Dou: "Brother, have a smooth journey, and the battle is smooth." Looking at his old friend, Wang Dou nodded silently, led the army, and rolled forward.
When he arrived at the Acropolis, Xu Zucheng, the guard of the Acropolis, was also a big and small official in Checheng, who would wait outside the city to see him off, and he was also emotionally moved when he saw Wang Dou's army. Wang Niu was originally his subordinate, and now he is with him! level, the position is more Ming guerrilla general, higher than him.
He could only sigh in his heart Wang Dou's official luck, and saw that Wang Dou was full of fierce sergeants behind him, "All of them have high morale, he doesn't know how Wang Dou was trained, perhaps, when Wang Dou returns from the expedition, he should ask Wang Dou for advice." Fortunately, they are all equipped with gloves, and they also have red wool coats on the outside, which are already comfortable compared to other Ming troops. With these baggage and artillery units, it is inevitable that the degree of the sergeants' march will be affected.
Wang Dou looked at the late afternoon, looked at the map again, there was a river in front of him, and said, "You don't need to enter the civil fort, just set up camp by this river." ”
After Wang Doujun's order was handed down, the sergeants immediately set up camp at the river, dug trenches on the spot, took out tents, distributed camps, and dug drainage ditches and public toilets. There were no trees cut down in the surrounding area, and Wang Dou would not march with any timber and timber, so no temporary wooden walls were built around the barracks, but night vigil sergeants were arranged to patrol along the trenches on all sides and set night numbers. In addition, there were also baggage soldiers who took out large bags of thistles and threw them along the important places on all sides.
These tribulus terrestris are made by Shunxiangbao Weapons Factory, cast by pig iron, because of the mold, the casting is fast. Tribulus terrestris is like a triangular nail, there is always one side facing up on the ground, very sharp, whether it is against the enemy or the camp, it is very useful. Moreover, it is connected with thin iron chains, which is very convenient for laying and withdrawing, and is also widely used in the Ming army.
The Shunxiang army has been trained many times in the field, so it is orderly when camping, and Wang Dou is strict in governing the army, that is, marching on the inner line, and camping is also like wartime. Soon, a well-established camp appeared in front of everyone.
The smoke curls up, one by one the pots and stoves are set up, and the sergeants who have worked all day talk and laugh loudly around the pots and stoves, and each thousand generals in Wang Dou's army have their own ambush cooking room, that is, in each armor, there is also one of the sergeants who is also an ambush soldier, eating hot noodles and cakes, and some dried meat, etc., everyone is in good spirits.
Wang Dou led his personal guards to patrol the barracks for a week, and the soldiers were in good condition and had no discomfort, even if they were, they also had doctors in their army.
Wang Dou also went to the place where the baggage vehicles and gun carriages were parked to spread a rumour, and those chariots were very thick, and the enemy's hundreds of chariots ran for a day, but nothing happened. The wagons, wheelbarrows, were full of grain and grass, and there were also a large number of gunpowder shells, etc., and other kinds of baggage, covered with thick tarpaulin, and the wagons had canopies.
These grains and grasses are the life guarantee of his own army, and Wang Dou can imagine that "the most difficult thing to do when going out on an expedition is the supply of grain and grass."
Everyone laughed, Wen Fangliang and Gao Xun are both beautiful men in Wang Doujun, not as dedicated as Gao Xun, Wen Fangliang is quite romantic. He is beautiful, has a high official position, has a lot of wealth in his family, and other women are willing to marry him.
In the past few years, Wen Fangliang has accepted several concubines, and his sons and daughters have a lot of hands, and at a young age, he has five sons and three daughters.
Wen Fangliang was free-spirited, and after listening to Zan Zhong's words, he was not angry, but smiled: "Old Han, look at your son's fine skin and tender meat, he looks like your family's mouth, how can that body and bones eat three women?" My old Wen took out a daughter to deal with your son. Han Zhong shouted, "This family affair is settled. ”
Wang Dou smiled, this is the case in the Ming army, the relationship between them is complicated, and there are many marriages with each other, no, Han Zhong and Wen Fangliang have formed a family together.
In fact, after Wang Dou gave birth to his son Wang Zheng, all the officers under his command were tempting intentionally or unintentionally, hoping to marry Wang Dou.
And as each of his subordinates has become a family one after another, a rather solid interest group has been formed between them, and marriage with each other is a kind of one.
Li Guangheng glanced at Wen Fangliang, his face was more relaxed, with the status of Wen Qianzong, his grandson is worthy of his daughter, and he is right in Yemen, this family business is good. Han Zhong, this kid, is sometimes quite shrewd.
Yang Tong teased: "Old Han is in a good mood, is it that your wife has served you comfortably these days?" The crowd laughed maniacally.
Although Wang Dou's army was strictly hierarchical, the officials had decisive authority over their subordinates, and everyone respected and feared Wang Dou. But in the Wang Dou banquet, there is no distinction between dignity and inferiority, which is one of the reasons why everyone feels relaxed and happy in front of Wang Dou. The army passed all the way through Huai, and the territory of Yanqing was not until it entered the boundary of Juyongguan, and the road was difficult to walk. However, with the marching degree of the Shunxiang army, on October 14, the 11th year of Chongzhen, 3,500 sergeants still arrived at the foot of Yong'an City in Changping, and none of them were left behind. Changping is one of the many military gifts of the Ming Dynasty, mainly to protect Juyong Pass and various imperial tombs.
Changping was Changping County at the beginning, with the increase of the imperial mausoleum, the increase of the personnel of the guard, Jingtai had no year, the Ming Dynasty built Yong'an City in the east of Changping County, and set up Yong'an Camp. Subsequently, the guards of the mountain tombs moved into the city, and then the Changping County Ya and the Confucian warehouses moved in one after another. Soon a new city was built in the south of Yong'an City, and the two cities were connected together to become the new Yong'an City, with a circumference of ten miles and twenty-four steps.
During the Zhengde period, Changche was upgraded to a state and was under the jurisdiction of Shuntianfu. In the seventeenth year of Jiajing, Gonghua City was built in Changping Shahe again, the north and south of the city, the east and west were two miles long, as the palace when the emperor sacrificed to the mausoleum, and there was the south to protect the capital, the north guard the mausoleum, the east Yan Miyun to rush, the west to choke the use of mediocrity.
During the Wanli period, Changping was upgraded to a state, with a general army, a deputy general soldier to guard, and a Changping soldier to prepare for affairs, a eunuch to guard the tomb and others. In July of the ninth year of Chongzhen, due to the internal response of the Mongol soldiers of Duoyan, Yong'an City was broken by the Qing soldiers, and Wang Zhaokun, the chief of the household department, Wang Yigui, the governor of Baoding, was sentenced to death in battle, and the chief military officer Pichang surrendered to the Qing soldiers.
In view of this, the Ming Dynasty increased the defensive strength of Xuanfu Town Nanshan Road and Changping Feed, as the arch guard of the Jingling Domain, since the Qing army entered the Kou in September of the 11th year of Chongzhen, the officers and soldiers of the guard were gathered here, all of them belonged to the Ministry of War, and temporarily acted on behalf of the Xuanda Governor Lu Xiangsheng to control the dispatch.
At this time, there were banners all over the city of Yong'an, and the dense camps were all in the army, and the camps set up by tens of thousands of officers and soldiers who had come to aid were boundless, and there seemed to be a feeling that there was no end in sight.
Looking at the majestic figure of Yong'an City on the horizon, as well as the endless military camp tent, Wang Dou exhaled slowly: "It's finally here." ”
