620 [The Eight Banners Gradually Rotting]
The Manchurian Eight Banner Army, many hedgehogs gathered on the line of Sarhu, Jiefan Village, Gule Village, and Hetuala, to prevent the Datong Army from killing out of Fushun Pass.
From here, the army was sent to Yehe City, a straight-line distance of 270 miles, and the whole journey required crossing mountains and mountains......
On the contrary, the Datong Army was closer, and the Datong Cavalry Division stationed in Tieling was 120 miles northeast of Zhenyuan Fort.
In front of the third watch is Zhenbei Pass, which is dozens of miles away to Yehe City, and the terrain is relatively flat along the way.
The Eight Banners Army in the direction of Salhu did not dare to transfer away at all, and Dai Shan could only transfer 8,000 "elites" from elsewhere to quell the rebellion.
It is enough for the Bagan army to go on the expedition, after all, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has ruled Yehebu for many years, firmly controlling the war horses there, and in recent years, the war horses have been evacuated. The young and strong people who can fight in the Yehe Department have also been organized into the Eight Banners, and the rest are the families of the bannermen, and they don't even have weapons and armor.
However, fighting a war is not just about equipment.
Man Dahai found Dai Shan worriedly: "Father, the Haixi soldiers in the Eight Banners Army, heard that Nan Chu rebelled, and fled back to his hometown. You can't stop it, you can only intercept and kill those who have fled. Those who want to escape but haven't escaped can't be killed all, and indiscriminate action will lead to mutiny. “
"How many escaped?" Dai Shan asked.
Manda Haidao: "The specific details are not known, but there are more than 2,000 known Haixi deserters in half a month. ”
Dai Shan was silent.
The four departments of Haixi have been at war with the Jianzhou Jurchens for many years, and every family has a deep hatred. Listening to the re-establishment of his own tribe, how can he still want to stay in Jianzhou?
Of course, the main reason is that they knew that the Manchus would die and did not want to stay and be buried together.
There is also the treatment of the Eight Banners, which has plummeted compared to before.
At that time, Nurhachi, the Eight Banners had no salary, and the leaders of the various departments took Niulu to rob. During the Huangtaiji period, the Eight Banners began to be regularized, and the central government collected the military power of the tribal leaders at the cost of paying the soldiers. During the Dolgon period, the elite Eight Banners were paid as much as four taels of silver per month at their peak.
Now, the silver salary has been reduced to one tael, and the food and salary are often insufficient, and even the Jianzhou soldiers are generally dissatisfied.
"Dada-da-da!"
A fast horse entered the city and went straight to the palace of Daishan.
Holding the sign of the military emergency, the knight went all the way unimpeded, and knelt on the ground after seeing Dai Shan: "Your Royal Highness the Regent, there are more than 400 soldiers in Gule Village, and they were led by their generals, and they abandoned the village and went over the mountain to vote for the southern barbarians of Fushun Pass!" ”
"Got it." Dai Shan was physically and mentally exhausted, and waved his hand to send this person away.
These more than 400 soldiers of the Eight Banners are all from the Ula Department, and the Ula Department also belongs to the Haixi Jurchens, mainly living in Heilongjiang, where the Manchu Qing Dynasty's Mao Lianma came from. After the Ula tribe was destroyed, all the clansmen were incorporated into the Zhengbai Banner, and most of them served as soldiers in the fourth and fifth staff of the Zhengbai Banner.
Dorgon is not dead, but he is under house arrest, and many people think he is dead.
Dolgon was the leader of the White Banner, and all the troops were absorbed by Da Yu'er. Da Yuer is a good hand at playing politics,
But the army is in charge of Dai Shan, Man Dahai and his son, and the soldiers of the white flag have not been treated well. The Jianzhou soldiers are okay, and the Haixi soldiers with the white flag are simply born by their stepmothers.
The Manchus, who were forcibly combined, were already full of internal contradictions, and now they are tantamount to a complete outbreak.
Gulzhai is between Sarhu and Hetuala, and the soldiers of the Urabu stationed here can't go back to their hometown. Simply led by the officers, they ran to join the Datong Army en masse.
"Father, you can't let this go on!" Manda Sea Express Road.
Dai Shan: "We must win a battle, and if we don't win a battle, the army's morale will be unstable." ”
Manda Haidao: "But where are you going to win the battle now?" The Southern Barbarians guarded the Great Wall of Liao, which was only a hundred miles away from the capital (Hetuala). As soon as the army on our side moves, the southern barbarians will definitely take the opportunity to kill, and even the capital will be gone by then! ”
Dai Shan didn't say anything again, because he couldn't do it.
The Datong Army stationed in Liaoning has not done anything in the past year, and the Manchu side itself began to collapse. In addition to internal contradictions, the main reason is that there is a lack of food and money, and they simply cannot afford to support so many troops, and forcibly maintaining a large army will inevitably reduce their salaries, and those who serve as soldiers will have different intentions if they do not receive enough food and wages.
Man Dahai thought for a while and lowered his voice: "It's better to remove the emperor's title and bow down to the one in Nanjing." “
Dai Shan's eyes widened suddenly, and he wanted to reprimand angrily, but he said: "It's not a bad idea, but I'm afraid Emperor Zhao won't agree." ”
"How do you know if you don't try?" Manda Sea.
The father and son really couldn't bear it, and they forcibly raised a large army, and they kept a state of wartime confrontation. The soldiers of the Eight Banners, who were supposed to be busy farming and going home to farm, were forced to become professional soldiers, and tens of thousands of people were pressed on the front line to garrison the walled city, and the consumption of food and salary was almost consuming the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Sometimes, Dai Shan really wants to lead the troops to fight, and God decides whether to lose or win, which is better than consuming grain and grass every day.
Dai Shan sighed: "Wait, wait." ”
Waiting for half a month, Dai Shan waited for the news of the defeat at the front.
The 8,000-strong army that was ordered to quell the rebellion of Yehebu ran more than 1,000 on the way.
Some of these deserters belonged to the Inner Mongolians, that is, the Mongols who could not get along in the steppe and moved to join the Manchus. There are also some from the Wusu clan, whose hometown is not far east of Yehe City, and it is just the opportunity to escape back to farming, so that fools will run to Yehe City to fight.
The continuous phenomenon of desertion has led to the demoralization of the soldiers who have not yet fled becoming increasingly low.
What's even more interesting is that the commander who went to Yehebu to quell the rebellion was a Yehe tribesman who had never led an army to fight
—A big jade henchman cold monk machine.
This appointment involves the power struggle between Da Yuer's mother and son and Dai Shan's father and son.
Leng Monk Ji is indeed very loyal, although he is from the Yehe Ministry, he vows to put down the chaos of the Yehe Ministry. It's a pity that the soldiers are not obedient, not only are there more and more deserters, but those who don't escape are also grinding, and they can't walk a few miles in a day.
"The Tartars march too slowly, right? We've been waiting for more than ten days. "Wang Fuchen, this living Lu Bu, led the cavalry to complain in the ravine.
"Dada-da-da!"
"The horse has returned, the enemy army is more than ten miles away!"
Nan Chu took the only dozens of Yehebu cavalry and followed Wang Fuchen: "General Wang, are we enough men?" ”
"Three dry horses, killing Tartars is more than enough." Wang Fuchen sneered.
Soon Wang Fuchen couldn't laugh, and the enemy army marched two miles north, and it was still early in the evening, so he actually camped on the spot. At least tomorrow before he can enter his ambush circle.
Wang Fuchen complained: "These Tartar soldiers, the more they live, the more they go back, they are similar to the officers and soldiers of the former Ming Dynasty." If they don't come, let's go and attack the camp at night!" ”
Ten miles away, Leng Seng urged the soldiers to set up camp, and sent sentries to disperse the vigilance.
Although he did not lead soldiers, he served as a guard by Huang Taiji's side for many years. Moreover, the martial arts are superb, the bow and horse are skillful, when Zu Dashou surrendered to Huang Taiji, Huang Taiji specially held a shooting event to celebrate. The cold monk machine is among the best,
Given a camel.
The valley ahead is dangerous, and the cold monk does not dare to enter without permission, and will march after exploring tomorrow.
In this mountainous area, Leng Monk is too familiar. He is not only a member of the tribe of Yeh, but also a relative of the chief of Yeh,
is within five suits with the rebellious Nan Chu.
At night, the cold monk slept in his clothes, and his sword and bow and arrow were at hand.
Suddenly there was a commotion, and the cold monk woke up, picked up his weapon and walked out. But it is the sentinels he scatters,
Blowing the horn on the top of the hill, it is obvious that there is an enemy army attacking at night.
"Camp up!" Leng Monk Ji shouted.
The rumbling sound of horses' hooves came, but after the tracks were exposed, Wang Fuchen no longer concealed it, and led the cavalry to rush to the Qing army camp at full speed.
The distance between the two armies is still quite far, there are still three or four miles, and as long as the Eight Banners hold the camp calmly, they will not be easily defeated.
But the Eight Banners are really not good, more than half of the elite are dead, and they mainly stay on the front line of Salhu to guard against the Datong Army. Many of the cadres in Leng Shengji's hands belonged to the second-line troops, and because there were too many deserters, the morale dropped very seriously.
The horn of the gathering troops sounded, but the Eight Banners didn't seem to hear it, at least half of them ran towards the mountains, and the grain transporters all slipped away.
The sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and the cold monk was cold in his heart, and he said to the soldiers who gathered one after another: "Manchurian man, follow me to kill the enemy and serve the country." Kill! “
The Datong cavalry avoided the place with the most torches, divided into two and walked around the camp, and actually ran into the deserters who abandoned the camp.
After a slashing and killing, Wang Fuchen shouted: "The Tartars are prepared, do not forcibly attack the enemy camp." Blow the trumpet, blow the trumpet, and go after the rout outside the camp first! ”
Leng Seng Ji gathered more than 3,000 troops around him, and wanted to rely on the camp to defend the palace, but he was lonely, and Wang Fuchen did not come to attack at all.
In the early morning, the sky was getting brighter.
Wang Fuchen came back with the cavalry, blocked the main gate of the camp, and confronted the cold monk machine across the improvised wall.
Wang Fuchen threw the mirror over and said to Nan Chu: "Come and see, who is the master of the village, let him quickly lead the troops to surrender." ”
Nan Chu picked up the Ganli mirror, looked at it for a while, and said: "It's Leng Monk Ji, in terms of seniority, he should be counted as my cousin." ”
"Go and persuade us to surrender." Wang Fuchen.
Nan Chu approached the camp slightly, opened his throat and shouted: "Leng Seng Ji, you are a member of the Yehe tribe in vain, and you actually helped the Jianzhou Tartars and led troops to attack your own tribe. Hurry up...... Yes! ”
But it was the cold monk who bent his bow and arrow, and at such a long distance, an arrow hit Nan Chu's shoulder.
Leng Seng Ji reprimanded angrily: "You and I are all in Hetuala, do you want to kill the whole clan?" Surrender quickly,
Come back with me and plead guilty! ”
Wang Fuchen sneered: "Stubborn people, surround and fight slowly!" ”
Wang Fuchen was not in a hurry, but the Eight Banners were very panicked, and they only had more than 3,000 people left at this time.
That night, Wang Fuchen did not attack the camp, but the Eight Banners took the initiative to escape. Moreover, there were more and more deserters, which led to the misjudgment of other soldiers, thinking that the Datong army was killing again.
"Run!"
The Eight Banners Army actually blew up the camp by itself, and all of them were frightened birds.
Wang Fuchen looked at the chaotic enemy camp, and the whole person was a little confused: "I haven't fought for more than a year, and the Tartar soldiers have rotted to such an extent?" Fuck it, kill the enemy with me! ”
The result of this battle made Dai Shan completely disheartened.
On the Nanjing side, Zhao Han received a secret report: Dai Shan asked to depose the puppet Qing Emperor, and Manchuria declared himself a vassal to the Datong court.
As long as Emperor Zhao agrees, Daishan is responsible for serving Da Yu'er and Shunzhi.
