10-19 Camp of Goryeo
The attack on the Goryeo army was the red-shirted thieves who were already notorious in Liaodong, they had scavenged enough in the Shengjing area, and then returned to the Bohai Sea by boat, and the logistics ships were moored on the sea, and they were supplied with weapons and ammunition, and then came out again, this time it was the sailor who came to the Yalu River and the 6th route to kill together, and when they saw the empty Qing army ships anchored on the bank of the river, the Ming army knew that there might be a large amount of Goryeo supplies to cross the river, who knew that there were actually 3,000 men and horses, and now they could pick up a big bargain, and they attacked from three sides, and it only took a moment to annihilate this Goryeo army.
Liu Ziguang had never seen the Goryeo army before, and he couldn't help but laugh dumbly under the scrutiny, the Goryeo soldiers didn't even have helmets, let alone the armor, one by one, wearing white robes, with strange little hats on their heads, and the weapons were also very funny, mostly three-strand forks, like a group of patrol Yakshas, short weapons, and steel knives in the style of Japanese knives, but the quality was obviously not as good as Japanese knives.
The redshirts came and went like the wind, there was no condition, and there was no need to take prisoners, but it was unwilling to let these prisoners go on the spot, Liu Ziguang suddenly had a murderous intent, and hacked these people directly to death by the river, which could bring a huge shock to the Goryeo court, and also put some pressure on the Qing court.
I was thinking about how to execute this group of surrendered soldiers, when I suddenly heard a grunting sound, and when I looked up, the sound came from among the Goryeo surrenderers, it was clearly hungry and my stomach rang, alas, Liu Ziguang's compassionate heart came up, and he couldn't let people be starving ghosts, just when it was time for lunch, he said to the lieutenant general: "Open the meal, let them eat enough, and go on the road with peace of mind." ”
The Goryeo soldiers sat on the spot under the supervision of the firecracker, took out dry food and kettles, and began to eat, their food was very poor, it was the nest of stick noodles and the spicy cabbage in the jar, plus the white water was a meal, looking at the black and thin Goryeo soldiers eating pickles, Liu Ziguang suddenly felt sympathy, and said that these people are afraid that they will not be able to eat meat a few times a year, it is better to let them feast before they die, so let their subordinates take out canned meat and compress biscuits for the captives to eat.
The marching dry food of the Red Shirt Army is high-calorie and delicious food, canned meat is made of good yellow beef, with enough seasonings, cooked at high temperature to compressed biscuits, it is made of fine flour and salt, sugar, lard, egg powder pressed and baked, and the Korean soldiers from the poor countryside usually don't even see shredded meat in the barracks all year round, can eat oily dishes, even if it is a holiday, now suddenly eat such delicious food, many soldiers' tongues are biting out blood, there is a sound of smacking lips everywhere, it seems to be still reminiscent of this delicacy that seems to be only qualified to enjoy by gods.
In the end, the Korean soldiers added a clean and empty box, and the empty box was also hidden by the officers, and they couldn't bear to discard the slag of the compressed biscuits, and there were many people who hid the compressed biscuits a little on their bodies, thinking that when they had the opportunity to go home in the future, their families would also taste the deliciousness. Seeing that they had eaten and drunk enough, the Red Shirts took out cigarettes and invited the Goryeo officers to taste while looking for the clearing where they had been shot.
Paper cigarettes are a luxury item that has been used in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Mongolia, The upper class society in Goryeo and other places is all the rage, only the real nobles have a way to buy them, ordinary people can't even smell the smell of cigarettes, these officers have only seen the soldiers, the master of the judgment of the book, smoked the cigarettes smuggled in the Ming Dynasty, and now they can finally taste it, and it is a surprise again, one by one clumsily bite the cigarettes in their mouths, waiting for the red shirts to light cigarettes for them, the red shirts smiled and scattered the cigarettes in their hands, and took out lighters to help them light them one by one, and patted them on the shoulders, as if they were close friends, the Goryeo officers were not used to smoking for the first time, many people were choked and coughed, causing a laugh, and there were more people and less smoke, so they each took a sip and enjoyed it, but only among the officersThe Goryeo army was strictly ranked, and the small soldiers were not qualified to enjoy the happiness with the officers, watching the officials swallow the clouds and spitting fog, and the small-eyed redshirts looked funny, and dismantled a cigarette for the soldiers to smoke, and the smoke by the Green River was everywhere, and there were coughs and laughter everywhere, who would have thought that after a while, this place would become an execution ground.
The place of execution was found, it was a high cliff by the river, and the prisoners were taken up, and a ** was shot, and they were pushed directly from the cliff to the river, and the redshirts rolled up their sleeves, pulled away the hammer of the firecracker, put away their kind smiles, and were about to return to their hometown with the first wave of captives, and these Korean soldiers suddenly all knelt down at once.
The Red Shirts were dumbfounded, what was going on, did they know that disaster was coming? But it doesn't look like it, these people have tears in their eyes, their expressions are excited, it doesn't look like a posture of begging for mercy, they make the soldiers dizzy with a smecta mouthful, fortunately, the Goryeo officers can speak Chinese, and said in Chinese with a Liaodong accent: "The army of the Celestial Empire is really a benevolent, righteous and mighty army, our emperor was coerced by the Qing people to send troops in a hurry, there is really no intention of being an enemy of the Ming Dynasty, and now the military period has been missed, it is better to throw himself under the command of the general of the Celestial Empire, which can be regarded as a clear road." ”
The Goryeo soldiers lay on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic, and the red-shirted army who looked sincere hurriedly reported to Liu Ziguang, Liu Ziguang was also taken aback when he heard the words, and the Goryeo people were too cheap, so they would be obedient if they gave meat to eat at once, and they had to forget their surnames.
"Call me their leader."
After a while, a short, fat officer was brought to Liu Ziguang and kowtowed respectfully to say goodbye, he spoke fluent Chinese, obviously from the elite class of the Goryeo Kingdom: "The little Kim is knocking on the generalissimo, the little one is the Goryeo army leading from Sanpinzheng, this time leading the army north, and the little one is the head of the march." ”
Liu Ziguang said: "Why do you want to descend? ”
Jin Zaicao grabbed the ground with his head: "Generalissimo Mingjian, the small and his subordinates were all killed by traitors, and they were forced to come to Liaodong, the full Tartar enemy, but the army of the Celestial Empire dragged us Goryeo to participate in the war, and the poor king was deceived by the traitors and sent me to die, and the generalissimo said that the small one had already thought about it on the way, and when he arrived before the army, he would defect to the Celestial Empire, but he didn't expect the heavenly soldiers to come so quickly, and he crossed the Yalu River and met the generalissimo, really....... net is a blessing for the little ones, since they are destined to meet the generalissimo, don't abandon me, wait for us to do nothing, just give us food, besides, the heavenly soldiers fight so hard, after returning to the camp, we don't have to boil some hot water, wash our feet or something, we can do this errand! ”
Jin Zaicao said all this, Liu Ziguang couldn't help but feel a chill, but after thinking about it, if this group of people really surrendered, wouldn't the blow to the Manchus and Goryeo be even greater, so he said: "Since you are determined to surrender, then show some sincerity, the left bank is Dandong County of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, you go and take the county seat, kill all the Qing soldiers, and take you and others." ”
When Jin Zaicao heard this, he was overjoyed, and immediately swore that he was willing to make a military order, not to take Dandong, and to see him. Liu Ziguang asked people to give them forks and waist knives to attack Dandong County, and also sent a team of soldiers to follow and monitor.
Jin Zaicao and his officers thought for a while that this was the only chance to live, they were not waiting for either side to see the Qing people using them as cannon fodder, and the Koreans were dying on the left and right as gifts. ”
The idea was made up, two thousand Goryeo remnants plucked up their spirits, thinking about the deliciousness of canned beef and compressed biscuits, and killed Dandong County, although it was a border city, but because Goryeo had been surrendering, so the garrison of Dandong was rarely broken by the Goryeo army, and the city was broken by the Goryeo army.
After slaughtering Dandong County, this group of Goryeo soldiers can be regarded as officially drawing a line with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Liu Ziguang can use them with confidence, thinking about it, and finally giving this group of people the number of the Ming Beiyang Naval Division's Buyong Goryeo Battalion, which can be regarded as a Ming army sequence.
The mission of the Korean battalion was to garrison Phi Island at the mouth of the Yalu River, waiting for an opportunity to harass the Manchu army food supply, and there was no need to worry that the 100,000 loads of military rations that Goryeo had given to the Manchus had been intercepted, in addition to the 10,000 that had been transported back to Shanhaiguan, but for the Goryeo battalion to eat, the Red Shirts had left a batch of canned meat and compressed biscuits, and promised to send ships to Yanglai Island every once in a while.
Before leaving, Liu Ziguang explained the key tasks to Jin Zaicao, although the Goryeo battalion did not have many soldiers and horses, but it had obvious geographical advantages, choked the Yalu River estuary, controlled Goryeo to continue to send reinforcements to the Manchus, and harassed the Manchu cities along the river from time to time, which was their task.
Jin Zaicao is a smart person, and he still has the ability to control his subordinates and stir people's hearts, and Liu Ziguang saw a trace of ambition in his eyes, so he drew a cake and told him about the family history of the Goryeo Dynasty, the current king of Goryeo is the descendant of the former general Li Chenggui, Li Chenggui also rebelled halfway to the Central Plains to fight with the army, killed a horse gun, overthrew the imperial court, and established himself as the king.
At this time, Jin Zaicao already knew that the commander of the Ming army in front of him was the well-known Marquis of Zhenwu, Liu Ziguang was excited, and the implied meaning of Liu Ziguang's words also provoked his ambition, and the man's fame was immediately taken, so why bother to fight for them, now there is such a good future in front of him, if he uses it properly, it is not to worship the marquis, but to face the south and the north, and call him a lonely man......
