This battle has been chased and killed until dark, and this is the end.
And when the final statistics were made, the results were even more amazing... The 20,000 Qing army in this battle, that is, the Qing army inlaid with the red flag and the Zhenghongqi (Yuetuo is the eldest son of Daishan, and Daishan is the banner owner of the Zhenghongqi, so In this battle, Yue Tuo held the two red flags), almost completely wiped out!
Although the number of people who wiped out the Qing army was too large to be counted for a while, it is roughly estimated that there were 19,000 beheaded, including the surrendered Qing army! In other words, just escaped a fraction!
As for the reason why the Qing army only fled so much this time, it is almost equivalent to the entire army being wiped out. This is also normal, because the main force of this battle, Guan Ning cavalry, is known for its strength. In the past, they were unwilling to contribute. But when they were really willing to exert their strength, the Qing army who could escape under their swift horses were of course very few.
Including in the wiped out Qing army, the high-level staff of Tarzi were also killed and wounded! Except for Yue Tuo who was'cursed to death' by Yang Shanlu, the rest of the Gushan'e was true, Jiala's was true, none of them were spared! Except for only one small Niu Lu Zhangjing who escaped, the other dozen high-ranking generals were all captured or killed! It can be described as brilliant!
Even this, including the head coach of the North Road Qing Army, Yue Tuo's corpse and his full ceremonial guard, were all captured! (Although it is just a corpse, but according to the military regulations of the Qing army, it is usually the ordinary soldier who died in action. The corpse must be snatched back, so as not to fall into the hands of the Ming army, not to mention the dignified Eight Banners Bannerlord! So from this In a sense, it is almost equivalent to capturing Yue Tuo alive)
And this significance is even more significant... This is the highest-level Man Qing general captured by the Ming army since the war with the Man Qing! Commander of the fifty thousand army! The dignified prince, the owner of the red flag!
Even if Du Du was captured alive before, it couldn't be compared! (Du Du is Baylor, and his status is much lower than that of the prince.) Even to some extent, it was revenge!
After all, in the original history, Tanzi entered the customs several times, and the princes who were looted or killed by them do not know how many princes, but they are also princes, those are just waste, the fat pig princes raised by Daming, and Yue Tuona But really brave and good warriors, the famous generals of the Qing Dynasty! But now
Even with such an astonishing gain, Tarzi’s Zhenghongqi and Xianghongqi are almost gone! Think about it, the North Road army that they entered the bandits this time has almost reimbursed 30,000 horses! And how many people are there in these two red flags? (There are about 60 Niu Lu, nearly 20,000 people, so this is already the two red flag Mongolia attached to him, including the soldiers and horses of the Han army, including the Eight Banners, all of them have been cleaned up.)
Therefore, after this war, the two red flags can almost be crossed out of the battle sequence of the Manchu and Qing dynasties. The so-called Manchuria was founded with the Eight Banners, but now, these eight pillars have been chopped off. what!
In addition, another major gain this time is the seized materials. After all, Yue Tuo's Qing army, except for the previous defeats with the Xuan Jia army, all have a smooth journey. Invincible, invincible!
Therefore, since entering the customs, the Yuetuo Department has breached fifteen county towns and two government towns in total! But now, all the gold and silver treasures they robbed, grain, rice, pigs and sheep, etc., are all returned to the Ming army. According to preliminary statistics, there are at least 400,000 taels of gold and silver. Other grains, rice, pigs and sheep are countless. Ah... It's all piled up!
Even among the goods stolen by Tarzi, there is a special kind of "goods"...that is, the many beautiful women and young men who were looted by Tarzi, who are called four-legged sheep by them ( The so-called four-legged sheep can be used to play with their orders, and they can be slaughtered and eaten when the ration is lacking. This is called a four-legged sheep)
Just like this time, the Ming army rescued nearly 2,000 beautiful women in the camp of the Qing army! And these 2,000 women are also poor people, and they suffer* (in a sense, they are equivalent to the comfort women of later Japanese soldiers)
Even if the Ming army won, they will be looted out of the gate and suffer a lifetime of devastation! Some even have to be forced to give birth to children of the dog Tarts, causing scenes of human tragedies! But now, all have been rescued!
As for the young men who were plundered by Tarzi, there are even more, there are seven to eight thousand people, because this is also very profitable... Tarzi chooses all the young and strong guys from 20 to 25, and then like Such a young man can be very profitable as long as he looted outside the customs as a slave, eats less than cows, and does more than cows, and does not need to pay a wage, so it is also an important material for plunder.
But now, they are all rescued as well! Even camping is a good thing to do to the end... Because after these strong and beautiful women are rescued, some of them have been taken two to three hundred miles from their hometowns by the dog tarzi, how can they return to their hometown? So the camp gave everyone two taels of money to travel to so that they could return to their hometown and reunite with their relatives.
And after sweeping the battlefield roughly like this, the entire camp was victoriously retired! Even such an easy battle, which no one had expected before, killed 20,000 Dongnu with ease? You have to know that this is not about the rogues in the previous battles, this is an out-and-out elite soldier of Tartar! But now
Even after returning to the camp, the happy atmosphere was even more lively than the Chinese New Year. After the general inventory results came out, Yang Sichang could not wait to announce that tonight the whole army will enjoy wine and meat again... All army congratulations!
He even felt that the self-appointment of the supervisor this time was really a wise decision... You see, in just a few days, such a great victory was achieved! This kind of magnificent record is rare among the many civil servants since the founding of Korea...
However, when the generals returned and prepared to celebrate their achievements, they suddenly discovered that Sun Chengzong had not returned.
"Hey, what's going on?" Yang Shanlu felt a little strange. He watched the old man kill him today, but he hasn't come back yet. Could something happen
The generals of Guan Ning's army are even more anxious... To some extent, Sun Chengzong is their second parent...
But when everyone was worried, they suddenly heard the iconic loud voice coming from the sidewalk: "Haha, the old man is back!" This voice was full of joy, and as soon as he heard this loud voice, everyone would know Now... Sun Chengzong, the emperor of the Three Dynasties, is back.
However, the generals were still a little worried, and they all greeted them. After all, although Sun Chengzong was a well-known civil minister in the late Ming Dynasty, his strength value was much lower than that of Lu Xiangsheng, who was also a civil minister. He was 76 years old and he personally chased and killed the Qing army... This kind of worry...
However, after seeing the old gentleman, the generals were relieved. They saw that Sun Chengzong's body was splattered with blood, but he was unharmed! The spirit is also very excited, obviously returning safely, so that's good...
When he saw the generals in the camp, he was also very happy. He even walked up to Yang Shanlu, who was the last in line, and patted Yang Shanlu's shoulder severely and said, "Good, good! This is Jiangshan. Talented people come out on behalf of you!"
Even the old man began to cherish his memory: "I think that when Qi Shaobao passed away early, the old man was sad and the country lost its pillar... But now?"
As for his excitement, Yang Shanlu is also very able to understand... Not to mention that the old man was in danger this time in his hometown of Gaoyang. After being besieged by the Qing army, he almost broke his family and died!
(In the original history, after the Qing army besieged Gaoyang, no officers and soldiers came to rescue. The old man led his family and the upper town in the village to defend themselves. However, the Tucheng was short and without reinforcements, and finally fell. He screamed that his family members had escaped separately. , Want to die for the country, commit suicide, and be captured.
After entering the Qing camp, Wang Jue bowed his head on the floor with a reed mat and hanged himself to death. His son Jurenjun, Shangbao Chengkey, official student cerium, senator 鋡, axe, nephew Lian, and Sun Zhifang, Zhifang, Zhichang, Zhijie, Zhichang, Zhihan, and their descendants total 37 people, Those who died in this battle, no one fell. )
But now? In addition, it is important to know that Sun Chengzong has spent almost half his life fighting with Manqing. As a veteran of the three dynasties, Sun Chengzong has been responsible for the construction of the Ningjin Line (Ningyuan and Jinzhou Lines) since 20 years, and has devoted all of it to this line of defense. Hard work.
But as a result, it was a retreat and retreat! One defeat and another defeat! Throw Da Linghe first, then Xiao Linghe! Facing the fierce soldiers of the Qing army, he could only retreat backwards in a humiliating manner, and was beaten to a few large military fortresses in the end!
Even in the eyes of this old gentleman, he would never see the day when Daming turned defeat into victory in his life. He would go to see his student Emperor Zhu Youxiao with a lifetime of regret.
(Zhu Youxiao still attaches great importance to him. During the reign of the carpenter emperor, Zhu Youxiao appointed Sun Chengzong as the governor of Ji Liao and a scholar of Dongge University to preside over the battle against the Manchus.) But now
"Boss, take care of your body!" And seeing that Sun Chengzong was so emotional, many generals of the Guan Ning army were also emotional, and many people shed tears in their eyes... After all, these people have followed Sun Chengzong's command more than ten years ago. Form the Guanning Army to defend against the Tartars! But I also witnessed the humiliating history, the unbearable history, the history of being beaten by the dog tarts so helplessly... But now
"It's okay! The old man is so happy! Today is so happy! Hahaha!" Sun Chengzong didn't care, and laughed three times. The kind of joy has never been seen before!
"Hehe, old sir, let's go in and say something, there is already a celebration banquet in there." Yang Shanlu said with a smile.
Unexpectedly, after Sun Chengzong listened, there was no response.
"Huh?" Yang Shanlu felt very strange, but after a closer look, he was surprised! I saw that Sun Chengzong had no breath! Although he still had an extremely happy smile on his face, he was motionless and passed away peacefully.
"Ah, old man, what's wrong with you?" The generals of Guan Ning army also found out that there was something wrong, but after they pounced on them, they hurriedly shouted for a long time, and sniffed for a long time, then they confirmed... The Emperor of the Three Dynasties, a generation of famous officials Sun Chengzong , Has passed away!
what? how can that be? These generals of Guan Ning's army all had red eyes, and some even cried bitterly on the spot... Guan Ningjun could be said to have been created by Sun Chengzong and included his countless hard work, but now, I didn't expect the old man to be like this. went!
On the contrary, Yang Shanlu, although sad in his heart, does not find it strange. After all, people are prone to various extreme situations when they are overwhelmed and sad, and this kind of thing is also recorded in history, such as folk There is a saying that'suffer to death, laugh to death, Niu Gao'.
It is said that after the Southern Song Dynasty violently captured Niu Gao, his old opponent Jin Wu, he laughed to death on the spot because he was too happy. For example, Ji Shengyu, He Shengliang, Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin who were alive by Zhuge Liang, etc., so it seems that I can understand it, and the old man is so old... In short, Sun Chengzong, the emperor of the Three Dynasties, is already happy and sad, and he is sure that he is gone.
Hearing crying all around, at this moment, Yang Sichang, who was also very shocked, calmed down the fastest. While his tone was very sad, he said to the generals: "The death of the old gentleman is a great loss for my Da Ming! But I I think this should be regarded as joy or mourning!"
"After all, as the old saying goes, life is rare in the past seventy years, and now the old gentleman is 76 years old, he can be called a longevity, not to mention it is still like today, his wish was fulfilled, and he died with a smile, so this is what Happy fun! We should not grieve, but happily handle the affairs of the old man and let him go happily!"
"Well, the governor's words are reasonable—" The generals pondered, and it is true that this is true, but although they understand this truth, they can't turn the corner for a while, including Yang Shanlu, also very much agree with his father's statement. , After all, he knows best, in the original history, Sun Chengzong's method of death can be said to be unstoppable! But now, the old gentleman walks with joy and satisfaction like this, is it a good ending, right
But anyway, the old gentleman has left after all, so after the generals stopped their grief, they all consciously stopped mentioning any drinking, just simply after eating and counting, they are ready to set up the mourning hall.
This is also true of Yang Sichang. He was already preparing to write a report to the court to report the victory, but now, he can only add the news of the old man's death.
However, in general, this is different from the coach who died in battle. The old gentleman died at an old age and died without disease, and he died well, so after this report was submitted, the court would probably not blame them.
Then on the next day, Yang Sichang ordered the army to Dai Xiao to remember the old man. He also sent someone to buy a good nanmu coffin in Dingzhou City. After the old man was buried in, he sent it back to his hometown, Gaoyang. , Come here for peace of mind.
But when the old man's body was sent away, although everyone had accepted it emotionally, many generals in Guan Ning couldn't help crying when they watched the coffin leave with their own eyes!
Even when Yang Shanlu saw this scene, he felt sore in his nose, and inexplicably remembered an allusion, that is, in the original history, after the Manchu Dynasty entered the Central Plains, the later Nanming came out with a man, that It was Du Yinxi, who was the magister of the Nanming Military Department and the governor of military affairs.
This monarch was born as a jinshi, but he managed the army rigorously, worried about the country and the people, and under his leadership, the Ming army swept away the previous decline, and united with the loyal camp to repeatedly defeat the Qing army, and the momentum was restored! (The Loyalty Battalion is an army composed of the remnants of the peasant army such as Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong. Inspired by Du Yinxi, they put aside their prejudices with the Ming army and joined forces to fight against the Qing Dynasty.)
It's a pity that the days are not holiday, because of years of fighting, this man became ill due to overwork, and finally died of vomiting blood, only 49 years old! After learning of his death, the three armies all cried and lost their voices... They were all crying! Like bereaved parents!
Even Yang Shanlu suspected that if Du Yinxi hadn't left so early, with his charisma and talent, the history of China might have been rewritten! It's just a pity... Even looking at the scene of the coffin leaving before him, Yang Shanlu feels like never before!
However, Yang Shanlu suddenly had another thought... My Chinese nation has always been plagued by disasters! There is even the risk of the previous five chaos in China, that inheritance will be cut off! However, it is precisely because of such countless outstanding people that they will stand up and fight! The Chinese nation can always stand among the nations of the world! But I am so dignified, but I can only be reduced to one of the fifty-six ethnic groups...
Even looking at the scene of the coffin leaving before him, Yang Shanlu has a clear understanding, he has secretly sworn in his heart...
Elder Sun, you are good to go all the way!
Your unfinished business will be done by me!
Daming’s picturesque landscape will be guarded by me!
And when the mountains are blooming in the coming year, you will surely see that we are all laughing in the bushes!
