Chapter 776 Attacked in the middle of the night
Hou Shilu's lesson is too profound.
The former general soldier of the Xuanfu is still a nobody on the border.
However, Hou Shilu was wronged.
Whenever a courtier recommended Hou Shilu, he was hindered by a group of people who framed Hou Shilu in the court.
You Shilu can think of how miserable he will end up if he doesn't succeed in leveling the thief.
It will even affect his brother You Shiwei.
Thinking of this, You Shilu gritted his teeth and whispered, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”
"This is the one who knows the times." Yao Zongzhong said with a smile.
Soon after, You Shilu took his soldiers and the soldiers who had just been assigned to his name to Gucheng County.
He ordered the whole army to be stationed in Gucheng County, and then connived at the soldiers to loot the county government and raise military rations.
The people of a county were devastated, their property was plundered, and women were humiliated.
Relying on this method, You Shilu successfully corrupted and co-opted the Ding.
This force will play an unexpected role in the future.
On the fourth day of the third month of the eighth year of Chongzhen, Yang Chengying led a part of the elite to Hunchun.
Passing by Liangshui Village, he saw that the sky was about to darken, so he camped on the spot.
I slept until midnight when I suddenly heard a noise outside.
Yang Chengying got out of bed instantly and grabbed the knife in his hand.
At this time, Zu Zepei quickly stepped into the account: "King, our army was attacked by gangsters of unknown origin in the dark, and Gao Xun is leading soldiers to the enemy. ”
Not their own people.
Yang Chengying put down the knife, took out the fire fold, and lit the oil lamp.
Flickering oil lights illuminated the tent.
"Go out and check the situation and report to me in time."
Yang Chengying said, picked up a book and read it.
A few thieves, not worth the fuss.
Zu Zepei retreated.
A moment later, Gao Xun entered the account: "King, the gangsters have been repulsed. Because it was too dark, the last general did not pursue. ”
"You're doing the right thing. When you go back, you will be rewarded for your deeds. ”
Yang Chengying praised and asked, "Did you catch the live mouth?" ”
"Grab one." Gao Xun replied, "A small platoon commander named 'Lu Guangzu' captured one alive. ”
Lu Guangzu? This name sounds familiar.
Yang Chengying scratched his head, forget it, I can't think of it.
He said, "Let's go out with me and have a look." With that, he put on his clothes and went out of the camp with Gao Xun.
There was silence outside the tents, and the light of torches shone on the tents.
But it's just the shadows that can be seen.
The northeast belongs to the deep mountains and old forests, and the lighting control is very strict.
Yang Chengying didn't want to experience the feeling of burning the mountain with a fire and turning into a roast suckling pig.
A part of the soldiers carried the bodies of the killed attackers over and lined them up in several rows.
The other part brought in the weapons used by the attackers.
The other soldiers were strictly guarded at their posts.
Yang Chengying casually took out a used feather arrow, and at a glance, he knew who did it.
The local native, the Haixi Jurchen, is most likely the Kurkha tribe.
In ancient times, the quality of arrows was good or bad, which can be seen the level of local development.
Yang Chengying has arrows in his hand, the arrows are made roughly, and the feathers are mainly made of the most local birds.
Kubai, who served as the magistrate of Hunchun County, said in the newspaper that a Kulkha chieftain named Gahachan refused to pay homage to him.
The Kurkha tribe, also known as the Huerha tribe, is a collective name for the tribes living in the vast river basin of the northeast, and no one has a precise number of tribes.
Gahazen is just one of the small chieftains.
"When the secret post of our army discovered the enemy's situation, it immediately issued a warning gun. Lu Guangzu, the platoon commander of the third platoon of our company, acted as soon as possible and led the army to assault the enemy position, which was a great success. ”
Hao Xiaozhong, the supervisor of Gao Xun's company, reported the battle situation in detail, "The other enemies had to retreat when they saw that their men were repulsed.
But they gave inconsistent orders and acted inconsistently, and were bitten by the tail by our troops, eliminating some of them and capturing one of them alive. ”
It was only at this time that Yang Chengying finally remembered who Lu Guangzu was.
Lu Guangzu is a native of Haizhou, Liaodong, and in history, he followed Zuo Liangyu to crusade against the peasant army, and after the Qing Dynasty, he entered Sichuan with Haoge, broke Zhang Xianzhong, and awarded the general army of Kuizhou.
Up to now, Haoge has been buried in Fuling with his father, and Lu Guangzu has also joined Meng Qiaofang's subordinates.
"Where's the living mouth?" Yang Chengying asked.
"Lu Guangzu handed him over to Company Commander Gao, who was interrogating him with Sony."
Hao Xiaozhong replied.
Yang Chengying nodded and said, "The soldiers have also worked hard, rest early." The body is placed here and buried tomorrow morning. With the current weather, it's okay to leave it overnight. ”
"Subordinates obey." Hao Xiaozhong hugged his fists.
Back at the big tent, Yang Chengying wrapped his clothes, sat on the horse, and used a wooden stick to stir the charcoal fire in the charcoal basin.
He didn't sleep, believing that Sony would soon bring him an answer.
When he yawned for the third time, Sonny came in.
"Your Majesty, the interrogation has already come to an end."
Sonny sat down by the charcoal basin and said, "According to the living confession, he had no idea that it was the king who attacked him, and the leader only told him to 'attack the ginseng merchants from Naruwoji,' and they followed." ”
Nalu Woji is a place name, and Woji is the name of the locals, which means primeval forest.
Due to the primeval forests in eastern Liaodong, the march of Yang Chengying and others basically followed the ginseng trade route.
Therefore, Yang Chengying's whereabouts are actually very easy to grasp in this area.
"Have you ever asked him where he is most likely to go if the chieftain Gahachan escapes?"
Yang Chengying asked.
"I asked. The man said that Gahachan had several wooden houses on the island of Lefu in Vladivostok, and that he might have fled there. Sonny replied.
Lefu Island is the name of the Jurchen language, transliterated into Chinese as "Bear Island".
"Knowing that he was going to be hunted down, he had thought about the escape place in advance, and Gahazen was not stupid."
Yang Chengying said: "Now that you know the location, you must arrest him back." ”
Sonny said: "You can let Kubay take someone to arrest him, and he will definitely be able to get him back." ”
"Nope! Don't send your own people. ”
Yang Chengying said: "This kind of thing should be handed over to Li Chaoren." ”
When Sony heard this, he immediately understood.
This is a good opportunity to show the authority of the king.
To let the local natives see, the Li Dynasty people who often cross the border to dig ginseng also have to listen to the king's dispatch.
In this way, the local indigenous people will be stabilized, and then the situation in the southwestern part of the northeast will be stabilized.
"When you arrive in Hunchun, you take people to negotiate with the Li Dynasty and order them to send a thousand soldiers to Dingdenglefu Island to capture Gahachan."
Yang Chengying commanded.
Sony clenched his fists, indicating that he understood.
Although the Li Dynasty's combat power is not good, it is still more than enough to deal with some indigenous people.
The next morning, the soldiers hastily buried the bodies.
Collected the camp tent, took the prisoners, and went to Hunchun.
Hunchun had human activity as early as the Neolithic Age, because it is located in a relatively flat area in the mountains.
It is also close to the big river and has abundant water resources.
The use of water in the local area is ubiquitous, from soaking ginseng to growing in paddy fields.
This used to be the Hunchunwei of the Nuer Gandu Division, and with the relocation of the capital division, the land was gradually occupied by the Shu Mulu clan.
When you hear about Shu Mulu, everyone will be very unfamiliar, but the celebrities from Shu Mulu, I say that everyone knows it.
For example, Nurhachi's great blessing Jin Gundai.
