Chapter 0767: Qin Liangyu

And Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen also knew very well that warlords were always warlords, and Qin Liangyu and her more than 8,000 white-pole soldiers with strong combat effectiveness were not omnipotent! What's more, the imperial court still owes Qin Liangyu's family! Qin Liangyu's husband died in the hands of Ming Ting!

The helicopter gunship from Beijing arrived in Datong, that is, less than two hours, which surprised Yang Sichang again.

"If Daming has a few more such air-flying things, the combat effectiveness will be terrifying." Yang Sichang said with heartfelt emotion.

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen didn't answer, he was in a very bad mood, he was no longer under his control, it was impossible to have helicopter gunships, let alone airplanes, if Daming reached the ability to produce cars, who else could confront Daming? He didn't want to speak, and if he continued to speak, with Yang Sichang's shrewdness, it shouldn't take long to discover the secret that he was the emperor.

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen was thinking about Qin Liangyu, and now there are too few troops with combat effectiveness in his hands, which makes him have to rely on local warlords, patriotic warlords, Qin Liangyu!

He is very clear about Qin Liangyu's entanglement with the imperial court, which has to start with Qin Liangyu's husband Ma Qiancheng. Ma Qiancheng, the word Xiao Rong. Stone pillar Xuanfu envoy. After the general of the Ming Dynasty, the general of Fubo, Ma Yuan, because of the merit of his ancestors, the hereditary Tusi of Shizhu County, his wife was Qin Liangyu (a famous female general, loyal marquis), his son Ma Xianglin (hussar general), and Sun Ma Wannian. In 1613, he was framed by Qiu Chengyun, an internal prisoner, and died of illness in prison.

In the sixteenth year of Wanli (1588), Tan Yan, the Tusi of Longyang Cave, wanted to break away from the rule of Shizhu Tusi, and Sima Douhu of Shizhu Tusi sent his son Ma Qiancheng to lead his troops to besiege Longyang Cave in order to maintain the ancestral training of "soil does not leave the country". Levy. (Hubei Lichuan Yumu Village)

Twenty years of Wanli. Qin Liangyu, who had just turned twenty, married Ma Qiancheng, a Shizhu Xuanfu envoy who was two years older than him.

Twenty-two years of Wanli. Ma Qiancheng's father, Ma Douhu, had opened a mine in Shiyan, and was later found to have lost money and was degraded. At that time, Ma Qiancheng was also adopted. The stone stone female local official Qin Shi Xing stone pillar Xuanfu officials.

In the twenty-third year of Wanli, "the local official Ma Bang hired to seize his seal, gathered thousands of people, and surrounded the Qin family", and Chaoyan "ordered Sichuan Fu to be imprisoned, and the matter was unresolved." "The people put together the ransom. Ma Qiancheng was able to get out of prison with palm prints.

On the first day of the spring of the twenty-fifth year of Wanli, the North Korean envoy came to ask for help. In February, Bingyin, reconsidered the levy of the Japanese. In July, Ma Qiancheng and Qin Liangyu came to the aid of the DPRK to resist the Japanese. It was the month of Guizhou Banzhou Tusi "Yang Yinglong rebelled, plundered the Hejiang River and Qijiang River. The following year, Yang Guozhu, the governor of Guizhou, led an army of 3,000 to defeat him, and Yang Guozhu was killed. ”

In the twenty-seventh year of Wanli, the anti-Japanese war ended, and the imperial court appointed Li Hualong as the governor of Sichuan, Hu, and Gui provinces, "and transferred Liu Wei and Ma Gui, Chen Lan, Dong Yiyuan and other southern expeditions." In February, under the command of Governor Li Hualong. The Ming army marched in eight directions. "1,000 times 3,000 white pole soldiers from the conquest state, Liangyu Beitong 500 soldiers wrapped in grain with him. and the deputy general Zhou Guozhu strangled the thief Deng Kan. On the second day of the first month of the first month of next year, the thieves took advantage of the official military banquet and attacked at night. Liangyu and his wife defeated them first, chased them into the thief realm, and broke Jinzhu and other seven villages. Already, the army of Youyang took Sangmu Pass directly and defeated the thieves. It is the first in the battle of Nanchuan Road. ”

In the forty-first year of Wanli (1613), Ma Qiancheng contracted a summer epidemic, and because of his disrespectful reception, he offended Qiu Chengyun, a eunuch sent by the Ming Dynasty to supervise the army, and was framed by Qiu Chengyun and thrown into prison. In prison, without treatment and recuperation, Ma Qiancheng fell seriously ill and died.

After Ma Qiancheng's death, the imperial court felt that he was not guilty of any serious crimes, so he still retained the hereditary position of his family's Shi Yan Xuanfu Shi. At this time, Ma Xianglin, the heir of the Ma family, was still young, and Chaoyan appointed her to succeed her husband in view of Qin Liangyu's meritorious combat and both civil and military skills.

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen knew that the imperial court was ashamed of the Ma family, but he also had to guard against Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin, which was also a major reason why he kept Ma Xianglin in the Gyeonggi region after Qin Liangyu scattered his family wealth and went north to the queen, and no one was willing to use his own local soldiers to fill the hole in the imperial court! People are selfish, otherwise they are saints and immortals.

White pole soldiers, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Sichuan Shizhu Tusi Qin Liangyu trained for her husband Ma Qiancheng to be a special type of troops good at mountain warfare. The white pole gun held by this class is made of sturdy white wood (white ash tree) as a long pole, with a bladed hook on the top and a hard iron ring on the bottom, which can be cut and pulled during combat, and the ring can be used as a hammer weapon. In that year, Qin Liangyu led this army to participate in the battles of Pingbo, Pingluxury, Aid Liao, Anti-Qing Dynasty, King Qin, and Suppression of Bandits, and won great meritorious service.

The so-called "white pole soldier", is to hold the white pole spear (spear) as the main troops, this kind of white pole spear is the late Ming Dynasty loyal marquis, Sichuan general soldier Qin Liangyu according to the local topography characteristics and create a weapon, it uses strong white wood (do not need to dye) to make a long pole, with a bladed hook on the top, with a hard iron ring below, when fighting, the hook can be cut and pulled, the ring can be used as a hammer weapon, if necessary, dozens of spear hooks and rings are connected, it can be used as a tool to climb the wall over the mountain, the cliff can be climbed instantly, it is very suitable for mountain warfare.

Qin Liangyu's husband Ma Qiancheng relied on this white pole soldier of thousands of men and horses to make the Shizhu area peaceful for a long time.

In the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, Yang Yinglong, the Xuanfu of Banzhou, colluded with nine local Shengmiao tribes to raise flags and rebel and besiege Chengdu City. They attacked everywhere, burned, killed, looted, and were brutal to the extreme. Banzhou is in the area of Zunyi, Guizhou Province, with steep terrain, high mountains and dangerous waters, and the rebels rely on natural barriers and are rampant for a while. The imperial court sent Li Hualong, the governor of Sichuan, Guizhou, and Huguang, to work together to suppress the rebels, and Ma Qiancheng and Qin Liangyu led 3,000 white pole soldiers among them. Due to the special equipment and long-term strict mountain training of the white pole soldiers, they were very handy in the war in Banzhou, and often gave the rebels unexpected blows.

In the 44th year of Wanli (1616), the Jurchen chieftain Nurhachi established the 'Dajin' (Later Jin) in Hetuara (present-day Xinbin County, Liaoning) and began to launch a series of attacks on the Ming Dynasty. Two years later, in the Battle of Salhu (the battlefield was east of present-day Fushun, Liaoning), the Ming army was defeated and all the battalions were defeated. Since then, the Ming army stationed in Liao has fled almost immediately upon hearing the alarm.

The Northeast was in an emergency, and in this context, the Ming Dynasty recruited elite troops across the country to aid Liao. When Qin Liangyu heard this, she immediately sent her brother Qin Bangping and her brother Qin Minping to lead thousands of elite soldiers first, and she raised horses and collected grain by herself to ensure logistics supply. For this reason, the Ming court awarded Qin Liangyu a three-grade official uniform.

In the battle of Shenyang, the Qin brothers led the 'white pole soldiers' to take the lead in crossing the Hunhe River, bloody battles against the Eight Banners, killing thousands of Eight Banners soldiers in the battle, and finally let the Eight Banners Army, which has always been invincible, know that there are such brave soldiers in the Ming army, and have been afraid for a long time. Due to the disparity in numbers, Qin Bangping died in battle, Qin Minping broke through in blood, and more than 2,000 white-pole soldiers died in battle. But it was also from this that Qin Liangyu's stone pillar 'white pole soldiers' became famous all over the world.

In the third year of Chongzhen (1630), Huang Taiji attacked Yuguan and could not enter, so he led 100,000 Eight Banners Army to invade through the Xifengkou of the Great Wall, and after capturing Zunhua, he arrived outside Beijing, and the four cities of Yongping were connected to the Ming Dynasty. The Qing soldiers took the opportunity to go straight to Tongzhou, and the Jingshi was very urgent. After receiving the order, Qin Liangyu led her white pole soldiers to rush to Beijing day and night, and took out all his family property as military salaries to make up for the lack of military supplies caused by the imperial court's successive wars. Qin Liangyu's troops met with the Qing soldiers on the periphery of the Beijing Division, and before they could set up camp, they began a full-scale attack. Qin Liangyu, who is fifty-five years old, dances a white-pole spear in his hand, like a snow flying, pear blossoms fluttering, where the blade passes, the Qing soldiers either fall to the ground or divide their hands and feet; All the white-pole soldiers and soldiers, all of them were as powerful as tigers, and they beat the Qing soldiers and fled. Soon, Qin Liangyu successively recovered the four cities of Luanzhou, Yongping, Qian'an, and Zunhua, and rescued the siege of the capital.

Emperor Zhu Youzhen sighed with emotion, and specially summoned Qin Liangyu on the Beijing platform, praised the edict, rewarded the colorful coin sheep wine, and gave four poems to show his merits. (To be continued......)
