Chapter 604: Mongolia Enters the Customs
It's all empty.
For a variety of reasons, Zhai Zhe couldn't wait to pull Wu Sangui into battle. This new king of Zhenxi in the Ming Dynasty is not so easy to take the bait.
Yulinwei in Shaanxi Province was once the strongest defense line of the Ming Dynasty to resist the Mongol harassment.
To the east of Yulinwei is the desert, at the junction of the Hetao grassland and the Loess Plateau, and the bottomless tunnel is a natural defensive circle. There have been many famous generals in the Ming Yulin Wei Border Army, and the Jiang Pavilions family originated from Yulin Wei, and the current military bosses Zuo Ruo and Xiao Zhiyan in the Ming Dynasty also served in the Yulin Army for a short time.
Once, because of the preservation of the Yulin Weibian Army, the Hetao Mongols did not dare to enter the Ming Dynasty.
The current Yulin Weixiong Pass is still the same, and those strong Northwest soldiers have disappeared.
When the Qing troops entered the customs, Azig once made a detour through Mongolia to attack Shaanxi from Yulinwei, all the way south. This is the path that the Mongols are going to take today.
The two teams of cavalry walked slowly in the Hetao grassland, more than ten miles apart.
Tumut was the first tribe to follow Chahar against the Qing Dynasty, but this could not change the feud between Chahar and Tumut.
Wang Yi had a goatee and swayed on his horse.
A man with a turban asked, "Envoy, how is the princess?" ”
"Very good, the princess is the most favored woman of King Jin"
"It's a pity that the princess is not the concubine of King Jin," Gerriletu regretted in his heart. He followed Ulan to rescue the Tumut tribes, and was rewarded by Omub Khan to distribute hundreds of tribes. Ten days ago, after assassinating Hang Gao, he had become the most powerful tribal leader in Tumut.
In the steppe, only the descendants of the Golden Family can rule the Mongol tribes. The Tumut Khan was a side branch of the Golden Family, and Gezhiletu needed the royal family to secure his position. The family of Ombu Khan was imprisoned in Shengjing and had not been heard from for a long time.
"King Jin mentioned you"
Geriletu replied, "King Jin once saved my life"
Although Tumut followed Ezhe, many people were forced to bow their heads temporarily because of the form. This time the troops entered Yulinwei, and the Chahar cavalry was led by Amur, and Geriltu asked Tokbo to stay in naturalization and go out himself.
The green grass under his feet slowly transitioned into a wasteland where no grass grows, and in the distance, the Yulin Gate Tower was sandwiched between two dirt mountains.
Geriltu confirmed it one last time and asked, "Envoy of the king, is there indeed your inner account in it?" "With the current power of the Mongols, no tribe is willing to attack the precipitous and barren Yulin.
"Don't worry," Wang Yi patted his chest. He is also from Shaanxi.
The elite Yulin Guards of the Ming Dynasty no longer existed, and they were either transferred elsewhere for meritorious service, or they lost their lives in the endless chaos of the people of Shaanxi. A small number of bloody men also died under Wu Sangui's knife during the incident last year.
Mongolia originally belonged to the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing court did not deploy heavy troops in Yulinwei. Even after hearing about the Chahar rebellion, the Qing court did not expect the Mongols to come and attack Shaanxi.
The Mongol iron horsemen ran on the dusty and gravel ground, and the Yulin guards appeared scattered in the towers, and some people lit wolf smoke.
Amur commanded the Chahars to set up camp and cut down trees to make shield carts. Over the years, he got very close to the Jurchens and Han Chinese and learned many things.
Ge Riletu led his troops and horses to the front of the Yulin Guard. After the two-wheeled cavalry fired, a commotion was heard in the Yulin guard, and the soldiers at the head of the city rushed down.
Ge Riletu was looking, the Yulinwei suspension bridge fell to the ground, and below was a deep ditch more than ten zhang high.
The large iron gate, which was similar to the color of the loess, creaked open, and a group of men in cloth clothes stood by the city gate with long knives in hand.
"Kill in" The Tumut cavalry swarmed in while shooting arrows. After many years, the Mongols finally broke through the walls of Yulinwei.
Wang Yi followed behind him and shouted: "Ge Ri Letu, please restrain the soldiers, do not kill the people of the Ming Dynasty"
The Mongols cheerfully urged their horses, and in the steppe, the punishment of the victors for the defeated would soon fall on the heads of the Yulin Wei people.
Amur saw that Gezhiletu captured Yulinwei in a single face, and knew that Wang Yi's trust in Chahar was not as good as that of Tumut.
Wang Yi urged the horse to catch up, and said sharply: "Geriletu, please restrain the soldiers and horses, don't hurt the people of the Ming Dynasty."
"These are not the people of the Ming Dynasty, they are the people of the Manchu Qing Dynasty" Ge Ri Letu urged the horse to gallop wildly, trying to get rid of Wang Yi's entanglement.
"From the time we invaded this border pass, this is already the land of the Ming Dynasty, and the people of Yulinwei are the people of the Ming Dynasty."
Wang Yi's voice was full of emotion. Before he went out, the king of Jin gave him this arduous task, and after the Mongols broke through Shaanxi, Shaanxi was still the land of the Ming Dynasty, and the Mongols were never allowed to act recklessly.
"So what?" Gřiletu dropped a harsh word. Ignore Wang Yi's warnings. The Mongols were not paid for their troops, and if they couldn't grab enough wealth, who would follow him next time.
The Mongols burned and looted in the guards. There are some shops in Yulinwei, and the shopkeepers and their men often travel back and forth between Daming and Mongolia to do some business, and this time they were wiped out.
Although Gezhiletu said so, he still restrained his actions, and when the battle in the guard post was over, he ordered the cavalry to seal the swords and forbid to rob the people's property again.
Amur is not in a hurry, he is old, and he is not in a hurry to compete with Geriltu for this little profit.
After Yulinwei was opened, the road to the inside was easy to walk. Shaanxi is too far away from Nanjing, Wang Yi can't ask Zhai Zhe, and many things are decided by him, the Shaanxi military division.
The next day, Wang Yi was reorganizing the Yulin guards who were willing to surrender. Amur reorganized 5,000 soldiers and marched south, preparing to attack the hinterland of Shaanxi.
When Wang Yi heard the news, he hurriedly put down the affairs in his hand and rushed to the Amur camp to block it.
The vanguard of the Chahar cavalry has come out, Wang Yi stopped in front of the Amurma, and said: "The people of Shaanxi have been suffering from the war, the king of Jin invited you to come, not to torture the people of the Ming Dynasty, if you go south, there must be rumors that the king of Jin colluded with foreign people."
"That's how it is"
Wang Yi smiled bitterly: "In this way, I am afraid that there will be no business to do." ”
"You're threatening me," Amur was furious.
"I'm just conveying the message of the King of Jin, who said that if the Mongol cavalry burns and loots in the Ming Dynasty, it will be no different from the Qing captives. Let's stop here."
Amur's face was cloudy, and after a long time, the Chahar cavalry ordered to return to Yulinwei.
The Mongols broke through Yulinwei, and the only soldiers and horses of the Qing court in Shaanxi were held in Xi'an. The whereabouts of the Mongol cavalry were uncertain, and the Qing court did not have any soldiers and horses to recapture Yulinwei for the time being
Under the joint instigation of Zhao Zhicheng and Wang Yi, the rebel armies that had been silent in various places revived, and the two county towns of Yan'an Prefecture were reversed one after another. Shaanxi has produced thieves who overthrew the Ming Dynasty, and there have also been officers and soldiers who can resist thieves.
