Chapter 1873 The Sword Points at Dongying (Forty) Borrowing a Sword to Kill

The gunpowder explosion in Dong Yiyuan's army immediately killed more than 200 Ming soldiers, and more than [-] people were injured for some reason.

Fortunately, most of these Ming troops were recruited by Peng Xingu from the capital's hooligans. They looked like dogs, but they didn't have much real combat power.

However, the impact of this explosion was still disastrous. At that time, because the high-level officials of the Ming army and the Jurchen allied forces were preparing to hold a military meeting in the Chinese army camp not far from the gunpowder depot, they were all affected by the explosion.

Dong Yiyuan, the coach of the Ming Army, and Nurhachi, the coach of the Jurchen Allied Forces, both suffered some bumps, and the generals and schools around them were overturned and knocked unconscious by the blast.

Among them, the most miserable one was an unlucky thousand household in the Ming army. He almost lost his left arm because he bumped into a Yanling knife that flew out of its scabbard.Although the left arm was saved in the end, when it will recover, I can only ask God.

However, although such a loss is tragic, it is only an appetizer compared with the real tragedy that happened afterwards.

Because the explosion was a big explosion in the gunpowder storehouse, it made an earth-shattering bang. At this time, although the gunpowder of the Ming army had been improved through Jinghua's efforts, it was still only "the best formula black powder" after all, so it formed a huge black gunpowder. The thick smoke actually created a beacon-like effect, which could be seen clearly from tens of miles away.

[Note: In fact, Jinghua has primary nitroglycerin manufacturing technology. Huang Zhiting used it once during the Battle of Liangshan. However, due to the huge and extremely dangerous storage and transportation risks of nitroglycerin, subsequent production and development were suspended by Gao Pragmatism.At the same time, Jinghua's development of gunpowder such as TNT and RDX is still in a bottleneck. ]
As a result, the Japanese army in Hamheung City also discovered the abnormality, and the Monojianban of the Japanese Fourth Army Corps quickly got accurate information and immediately reported it to Nabeshima Katsushige.

Nabeshima Katsushige guessed from the beginning that the Ming army's camp might have encountered a gunpowder explosion, but he was worried that the Ming army might be cheating, so he has been anxiously waiting for Monojianban's confirmation.

At this time, he heard that Mingjun's own camp was blown to pieces, there were dead and wounded on the scene, blood flowed everywhere, and the sound of wailing and screaming could be heard clearly from ten miles away, so could it be fake?
Nabeshima Katsushige never believed that the Ming army took thousands of his own soldiers to "sacrifice to heaven" in order to trick him out of the city, so the explosion must have been an accident by the Ming army itself.

Now or never!Nabeshima Katsushige made a prompt decision, personally led the whole army out of the city, went straight to the direction of Yongxing of the Ming army, and arrived before nightfall that day.

At this time, the Ming army had just settled the wounded, and the corpses of the dead had just been sorted out. Many of the dead no longer had the so-called "whole body", and they were still in the process of putting together.

Dong Yiyuan's body was bumped in many places. Although the injuries were not serious, he hit the big bump on the forehead, which was obviously black and blue, but it was still red and swollen.For a marshal, this appearance is really indecent, so he had to follow the doctor's order to bandage up, so that he couldn't even wear a helmet.

Nurhachi was fine as well, but when he fell to the ground, he was cut by the debris of something, which made it temporarily inconvenient to grasp the weapon. That's all.

However, although the two coaches were fine, some of the generals under their command were not so lucky because they were on the periphery at the time.About [-]% to [-]% of the main subordinates of both sides were killed. Although none of them died, they all temporarily lost their fighting power.

Moreover, in this day and age, because the treatment level of wound infection is limited after all, after reaching such an injury, they usually have to rest and rest, so these people can't actually continue to command the sergeants under their command, and they have to wait for Dong Yiyuan to make temporary arrangements.

[Note: Because of the relationship between high pragmatism, the Ming army spent a lot of effort on various hygiene standards, and avoided many meaningless infections, but high pragmatism could not produce "miracle drugs" such as penicillin. So if it is really infected, there is no good way. ]
At this time, Dong Yiyuan was preparing to arrange temporary replacements for vacancies in various departments in the new tent with a livid face, when he suddenly heard shouts of killing from outside, he couldn't help but change his face.

Just as he was about to call for all the troops to stand firm and meet the enemy, Nurhachi suddenly stood up and said loudly, "Dong Zongrong, it's the Japanese pirates attacking! We must first hold on to the central army's tent, and then counterattack the main force all the way with elites!"

Dong Yiyuan was already in an extremely bad mood because of such a big accident today, and now he was robbed by a barbarian like Nurhachi after being attacked by Japanese pirates. I have been in charge of the army for 40 years, and I don’t bother to give pointers to dragons and tigers!"

Love dragons and tigers, of course it is Nurhachi.His surname is Aixinjueluo. Ming people are too lazy to call him such a long surname, so they simply use the word "love" to express it.As for "Dragon and Tiger", it was because he took the initiative to invite Ying this time, and the imperial court added the rank of General Dragon and Tiger to him.

Although General Longhu is only a military rank, it is not simple.First of all, General Dragon and Tiger is the second rank, which is quite high.As we all know, the ranks of nobles and officials granted by the Ming Dynasty to the surrounding small countries and tribes are very, very low compared with the "celestial dynasties" of previous dynasties.

For example, Annan Mochao, they were also proclaimed emperor on the one-acre land in Annan. As a result, after Jiajing was forced to "attend" within, Ming did not really rule, but only gave Mochao "emperor" a slave The "Annan Metropolitan Envoy" of the second rank.

Speaking of General Dragon and Tiger, Hannaji’s position before inheriting the title of his ancestor Alda Shunyi King is also "General Dragon and Tiger", but you must know that Tumed, who enshrined Hannaji at that time, was second only to I answer myself!He was able to get General Dragon and Tiger because Daming believed that his act of coming to vote for Ming had actually made a great contribution to the tribute.

So what about the Jurchen ministries?It's very simple. Before Nurhachi was named General Dragon and Tiger this time, only the "Lord of Manchuria" who once ruled Haixi and Jianzhou, and the former chieftain of the Hada tribe, Wang Tai, was awarded this honor, so that he overwhelmed the Jurchen tribes. Stable rule of Jurchen for decades.

It is precisely because Nurhachi now has the title of General Dragon and Tiger that Dong Yiyuan's scolding at this time did not turn into a reprimand or insult, which can be regarded as a great deal of face.

But Nurhachi's temper is not good, especially Dong Yiyuan dared to be so arrogant in front of him after losing such a big face today, which made him sullen all of a sudden, and said half-heartedly: "Is it? That's good, I'm just waiting to see Dong Zongrong defeat the enemy."

Dong Yiyuan's heart was burning, and he stared coldly into Nurhachi's eyes, and suddenly said: "By the order of Lord Marquis and Ma Tidu, all the troops in northern North Korea are currently under the unified command and dispatch of this commander. Ailonghu said that he would use his elite to defeat the invaders. The main force of the Japanese pirates, the commander-in-chief handed over this job to Ailonghu—presumably Ailonghu will not disobey the Marquis's military order, right?"

Nurhachi was furious, and jumped up against the case and said, "Dong Yiyuan! I'm here to participate in the military council, and I have only three hundred soldiers under my command. If you let me destroy the main force of the Japanese pirates, it's no different from killing someone with a knife!"

Seeing him like this, Dong Yiyuan calmed down and snorted softly, "If you don't have the guts, why don't you shut up." After saying that, he ignored Nurhachi, but began to quickly arrange the task of "sticking to the spot" of each department. .

Nurhachi was angry that he didn't take himself seriously, and said coldly: "What Dong Zongrong said is, since we don't need our help here, what's the use of staying here? Let me go!" After saying that, he walked away and followed him The Jianzhou Zuowei general who came then went with him.The remaining Jurchen generals from Yehe, Hada, and Jianzhou Youwei were in a dilemma, neither leaving nor staying.

At this time, as long as Dong Yiyuan just asked to stay, they had a step to go down, so they naturally stayed, but Dong Yiyuan didn't say anything, so everyone looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes, so they could only keep silent Also go with it.

Seeing this, Dong Yiyuan’s general and guerrilla general Hao Sanpin persuaded him: “Commander, these Yehe, Hada and other captives have come to obey the orders of the Marquis. If they are allowed to go with Nurhachi, I’m afraid the Marquis will blame them afterwards... ..."

Dong Yiyuan waved his hand and said, "The so-called three moves in chess, how can you make things happen if you only look at the present? If they don't leave, if Nurhachi has ulterior motives after returning, who can check and balance?"

Hao Sanpin was stunned for a moment, then turned the corner, and hurriedly said: "So it turns out that the general is wise, and he will not be taught." Dong Yiyuan then ignored him, continued to assign tasks, and then ordered people to guard Zhuying.

On the other side, Nurhachi got out of the big tent and saw the Japanese pirates outside the Ming army camp attacking from all directions, but because the Ming army camp was built temporarily but was still quite solid, the Japanese pirates just robbed the first floor by sneak attack. The outer line of defense is attacking the second line of defense chaotically.

Nurhachi took a deep breath, and suddenly turned around and asked the people around him: "Er Yidu, Dong Yiyuan insulted me too much this time, I swear I can't bear it! Is there any way you can make Dong Yiyuan suffer a lot without not letting him down?" Make me be pursued by Grand Master Gao afterwards?"

The forehead also frowned, looked at the Japanese army that was besieging the camp from all directions, pondered for a moment, then suddenly had an idea, and said a few words to Nurhachi.

Nurhachi's eyes brightened, and he said decisively: "Okay! Good idea! Call people!"

One of the right-hand men of Jianzhou Right Guard Commander Shu Erhaqi, Wu Erkun, who came with Nurhachi this time, came out a little late just now, and only saw Eyidu quietly said a few words to Nurhachi. Then he yelled "calling men and horses", thinking that Nurhachi wanted to rebel against Dong Yiyuan and seek "revenge" from Dong Yiyuan. He was so surprised that he quickly grabbed Nurhachi who was about to get on his horse, and said anxiously: "Dabeile, if you provoke Dong Zongrong today, you will be killed tomorrow." Grand Master Gao is furious, how can Jianzhou survive? I hope Dabeile will be careful!"

A trace of surprise flashed across Nurhachi's face, and then a trace of gentleness emerged, and he said with a smile, "Wurkun, I never thought you would call me Dabeile, okay, okay..."

Urkun was taken aback. After the division of Jianzhou, it stands to reason that he could no longer call Nurhachi "Big Baylor".After all, this "Big Baylor" was what his subordinates called him when Jianzhou was not separated, and Shuerhazi was called "Second Baylor" at that time.

After the separation, both sides were "Baylor", but the ranking of "big" and "second" was removed, and they became Jianzhou left-back Baylor and Jianzhou right-back Baylor, completely equal.If Urkun still calls Nurhachi "Big Baylor", wouldn't that mean that his master Shuerhaqi is still inferior to Nurhachi?This is absolutely impossible.

Don't look at the Jurchens who haven't read any books, but political correctness often doesn't need to read at all, and it may even not be learned by reading at all, but learned from actual experience.Urkun can become Shuerhaqi's right-hand man, how can he not have such political awareness?
"I'm impatient and even slipped the tongue at the next moment..." Wu Erkun didn't want to entangle in the title, so he quickly changed the topic and said: "Left guard Baylor, although Jianzhou has two points, after all, it is of the same origin. My master right guard Baylor must not want to see Zuo Wei. Because of today's changes, Grand Master Gao angered the barbarians, please left guard Baylor think twice."

"What do you think I'm going to do? Oh, I think you're worrying too much." Nurhachi put away his smile and said lightly: "I am General Dragon and Tiger of the Ming Dynasty, the commander of the Jurchen Allied Forces to Aid Korea. Difficult...Although he is not benevolent, I cannot be unrighteous, so naturally I will help him."

Hearing this, Wu Erkun was skeptical. In order not to be implicated by Nurhachi, although he felt a little awkward, he finally couldn't help asking: "Is that so? Dare I ask how Zuowei Baylor plans to help?"

Nurhachi looked surprised, and said: "Of course it is to help him fight the Japanese pirates - what else can I do?" After a pause, he smiled again: "But if you dare not, I will not force it."

Urkun was furious immediately, his eyes widened and he said, "It's just killing the Japanese, why wouldn't I dare?"

"Really?" Nurhachi laughed, and said, "Then follow me to kill the enemy!" Then, without giving Uerkun any time to think, he suddenly got on his horse, drew his sword and pointed at the sky, and shouted: "Jurchen warrior, just follow me!" I will kill the enemy!" After saying that, Nurhachi pulled up his horse and rushed forward.

Wu Erkun saw that he was indeed heading towards the direction of the Japanese pirates' nearest attack, but when he really misunderstood him, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran to find his horse. Face to face with the Japanese army to fight together.

But what Urkun didn't expect was that since the Ming army's battalions were all ordered to stand on the spot at this time, and their Jurchen generals of about 300 people and their elite soldiers took the initiative to attack, causing the Japanese army to attack. It quickly turned out to be wrong.

Katsushige Nabeshima originally set up the camp of the Ming army temporarily after the explosion, and the interior was relatively casual, so he couldn't tell where the coach Dong Yiyuan was for a while, so he had to turn the sneak attack into a full-scale attack.

In fact, Nabeshima Katsushige is also very anxious at this time. His strength is actually only about a quarter of the Ming army. If he cannot quickly defeat the Ming army's middle army and cause the Ming army to completely collapse, then once the Ming army reacts and launches a counterattack If you don't do it, you will have to steal chickens and lose money, and it is not impossible for the entire army to be lost here.

Right now, people like Nurhachi suddenly came out, and they were extremely brave. They easily killed the Japanese army in front of them, how could they not attract his attention?So Nabeshima Katsushige immediately identified the position of the Ming army's middle army, and mobilized all the elite to attack.

At this moment, Wu Erkun had killed seven Japanese pirates with his hands, and was on the verge of killing them, when he suddenly heard Nurhachi shouting: "At this point in the war, we have exhausted our benevolence, Jurchen warriors—follow me to break through and return to Xinxing!"

They had already almost killed the relatively weak Japanese enemy in front of them. How difficult is it to break through at this time?Wu Erkun followed Nurhachi out of the encirclement easily in a daze, and he was a little puzzled, asking: "The killing is on the rise, why did you withdraw?"

Nurhachi looked back, and sure enough, seeing that the Japanese army found out that their troops were the Jurchens instead of the Ming army, they had already given up their pursuit and turned to attack Dong Yiyuan's camp. He couldn't help laughing: "Dong Yiyuan, insult me!" Is there no price?"
