Chapter 205: Jiannu Goes South
The goals and methods have been determined, and the next thing is to wait for the army to assemble. ==But although Jiannu boasted that they were the first cavalry in the world, this time the troops were assembled relatively slowly. There are two reasons, the first is that the military rations are insufficient, and the Jiannu are killing people for military rations. Because of the fear that the soldiers would be dissatisfied, the human flesh had to be processed so that the soldiers could not see that it was human flesh. Although Jiannu did not refuse to eat human flesh, human flesh did not taste as good as other meats after all, and when they fought, they gave human flesh directly to the soldiers, and they had to mutiny.
Jiannu robbers like to fight, because in addition to robbing opponents, rape and adultery, women, there is also a point that the food in wartime is very good, and poor soldiers can fight tooth sacrifices. I heard that some people didn't eat for a few days in order to eat more military rations.
It is precisely because of this characteristic of the bandit group that bandits and rebels have very strong combat effectiveness when they divide one side, anyway, the outside of the nest is full of other people's things, and it is okay to grab them directly. After the establishment of the regime, because there were its own people everywhere, they were embarrassed to let it go, so their combat effectiveness plummeted.
The same is true for Jiannu, after they stole the Ming artifact, their combat power declined rapidly, and they deduced that they were assimilated by the Han people and contaminated with the habit of greedy for pleasure, which is really shameless. In fact, the reason for the decline in Jiannu's combat power is that after entering the Central Plains, the Central Plains is even his own backyard, and it should not be a glorious thing to wantonly loot in his own backyard, even if Jiannu is as thick-skinned as an old wild boar's skin, he is not willing to do so. Because it can't be looted, the combat power is reduced. Otherwise, why was the army of the old traitor of Wu Gui, who entered the customs with them, able to fight to Yunnan with a triumphant song? The troops led by Wu Lao's traitors are still Han Chinese, and it stands to reason that they should be assimilated.
The second reason why the troops are slow to assemble is because of the individual soldiers, who die in battle, and they try their best to mate these days. It is hoped that future generations will be left behind and inherit the promising profession of banditry. In addition, their wives and children are also making lists of things to rob. For example, if the pot for stir-frying has a hole, you have to grab one; There is a gap in the knife for cutting meat, and you have to grab one; Children don't have wooden horses to ride. Gotta grab one; There is no slave woman to ask for the eldest child, and he has to grab a woman to come back as a wife...... In short, they have everything, as if their husbands or fathers are not robbing, but carrying a lot of money to buy in Daming.
Nuer Ha Chi knew this, and did not urge, but was very proud, because he thought that this was called "the people's hearts are available". The more important reason is that he also does not want to go out early, because the colder the weather. The weaker the combat effectiveness of the Ming army, the more lax the defenses.
Originally, the soldiers were noble, but the old thief chief Nuer Ha Chi thought that the slow march of the troops could increase the pressure on the Ming army, prompting them to concentrate their forces in one city, and after breaking the city, it was convenient to loot property and carry out massacres, so it was delayed until the tenth day of the first month to complete the assembly of soldiers.
Just as he was about to reorganize his troops, the scout brought bad news, and the new Ji Liao Jingluo made Gao Di withdraw all the troops outside the Shanhai Pass. The city of Jinzhou has become an empty city. Nu'er Ha was furious, grabbed a teacup and wanted to fall to the ground. But looking at the fine magnetic tea bowl, thinking that the Liaodong Ming army was gone, and he couldn't grab such a good thing anymore, so he put it down again, grabbed a coarse magnetic bowl, and slammed it on the ground. to show that he was angry.
The first son of Nu'er Ha Chi said: "Father Khan, there is no need to be angry. It's better for them to go, and we can drive straight to the bottom of Shanhaiguan. We broke through the Shanhaiguan Pass and entered the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty. You can grab something better that way. ”
"Fool, this is the ploy of the Ming Court's fortified walls. The so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first. Shengjing is 8oo miles away from Shanhaiguan, and the cavalry has to travel for 8 days day and night, what should I do with the grain and grass for these eight days? I can't let my Qing soldiers go hungry to fight. Even if we try our best to rush to the bottom of Shanhaiguan, there is no way to take the city. Do you know how difficult it is to fight Shanhaiguan? That's really a one-man affair, and it's not open. There are 10,000 barbarian soldiers guarding there, and we 100,000 Qing warriors can't open it. Do you think I'm so confused and let Sun Man repair the city in Ningyuan and Jinzhou, because I know that no matter how well the city is repaired there, it will be repaired for our Great Qing Dynasty. The bigger the city, the more people there are in the city, and the more food there is. When we fight down, the harvest will be greater. Ningyuan and Jinzhou are isolated cities, surrounded by enemies on all sides, easy to attack, and these two cities are very close to Shengjing, we can send fine work into the city, feints on all sides, the Ming army takes care of this and loses the other, and Xi Zuo takes the opportunity to open the city gate, and we will attack the city. However, Shanhaiguan has only one side of the enemy, and even if he is capable, it is impossible to open the gate under heavy surveillance. ”
"Huang, didn't Father Khan ask you to gather information from the Barbarian Imperial Court? Why didn't you get this news? Nu'er Ha's second son, Shan Daishan, shouted angrily.
Huang was very surprised, since the "Di Bao" supplement, gathering information has become a very easy job. Whether it is the major policies or personnel transfers, the newspapers are clearly written. Because of this, he was lazy, and he didn't go to the Ming army for a few months. Because the Ming army suffered a lot, they were very wary of fine work, and nine of the ten fine works were beheaded. Since it was difficult to send the fine work in, and there were all kinds of news in the "Di Bao" supplement, Huang slacked off on the matter of the fine work, just read the newspaper every day, and looked for clues about the actions of the Ming army from the newspaper. I couldn't think of the withdrawal of the Ming army, and the newspaper didn't mention it at all.
Huang had to admit his mistake to Nuer Hachi, admitting that because it was difficult for Xizuo to blend into the Ming army, he could not get first-hand information, and there was no news of Gaodi's withdrawal in the "Di Bao" supplement, so he did not know that the Ming army had retreated, and Jinzhou City had become an empty city.
Nu'er Haqi rarely reasoned once, waved his hand and said, "It's not your fault, it's Ben Khan's wrong idea." I originally wanted to spread the news of the expedition and force all the barbarian soldiers and surnames into a few large cities, so that we could carry food and goods after the city was broken. Unexpectedly, the effect of intimidation was really good, and it actually scared the Ming army to withdraw from Liaodong. This Gao Di must have withdrawn his troops without permission, and the barbarian court did not know the news yet. It's good that you are a high leader, you dare to harm me in a big way, I can't spare you. Old eight, you sent Xizuo into the capital, and you must leak the news of Gaodi's escape. Gaodi, Gaodi, if you don't fight, you will be so scared that you will become a turtle and hide in the Shanhaiguan, can the barbarian court let you go? ”
Huang replied in a low voice, and Ah Wei asked, "Father Khan, then can we still fight?" ”
"It's still a fart, everyone is gone, who is going to beat it?"
"Then how do you say it to the soldiers?" When they heard that they were beating Daming, they were overjoyed, and they all had a list of grabbing war profits in their pockets. Suddenly said no ......"
"Don't say it," Nu'er Ha Chi waved his hand weakly, "After the military order is issued, it cannot be changed at will. Daming can't fight, just hit others, anyway, we have a lot of neighbors. By the way, let's choose the unlucky people in Mongolia, but they are also poor and can't get anything good. ”
Ah Yu interjected: "How is North Korea?" Although the North Korean girls have thick skin and rough meat, they are fortunate to cover their ugliness with white, and North Korea is much wider than Mongolia. ”
"Don't even think about it, since Mao Longman occupied Phi Island, our days have been sad. If Mao Man fights 6 battles, we don't have to be afraid of him, but he is very ghostly, and when he sees that the situation is not good, he will run away when he gets on the boat. Run, run, and release arrows, there is really no public morality at all. If we go on an expedition to North Korea, he will bring water, and we will have nowhere to run. Tang Gu, the fourth son of Nuer Haqi, shook his head and sighed.
When the Nu'er Ha family was worried that there was nowhere to rob, another scout rushed in: "Report...... Report! ”
Nu'er Ha Qi asked angrily, "What's the bad news again, tell me quickly." ”
"Great Khan, good news. The soldiers of Ningyuan City did not withdraw, according to the insider, there was countless money and food inside, and there were more than 10,000 people in it. Moreover, the soldiers on Juehua Island have not withdrawn, and there is more money and food there. ”
There was a soft "pop" in Nu'er Haqi's hand, and the fine magnetic teacup was actually crushed by him. He stood up and asked, "What, Ningyuan City and Juehua Island actually didn't withdraw their troops?" You're not wrong. ”
"The minions dare to vouch for their heads, and there is really no withdrawal of troops in these two places. However, the Ming troops in other places were evacuated, and all the grain that could not be moved was burned. ”
Nuer Ha Chi paced back and forth, and said excitedly: "Okay, as long as the Ming army does not withdraw, take these two places, and don't worry about food for at least two years." ”
Suddenly, he stood still and shouted: "Beat the drum and raise the account, Ben Khan will be in person!" ”
Jiannu finally went south. (To be continued!)
