The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 220 Stepping down Qingcheng
The old Patriarch Huang Yizhou knows that money and food are especially important to train a strong army. He now lives in Kaiping, and basically does not care about the internal affairs of the "Red Banner Army" that has moved its headquarters to "Tiger Cave" city, because he has to take care of his son who has invested a lot in Kaiping. industry.

Huang Yizhou knew that the soaring of the Huang family was entirely the result of his son's operation. His son's use of troops had always been to take advantage of the advantages and not to suffer losses. He was not going to interfere too much in the internal affairs of the "Red Banner Army".

He believed that it would be difficult for him to be stationed in Kaiping Town, so he handed over most of the veterans under his command to his son for unified leadership, and organized thousands of people to retrain in Kaiping again.

Huang Yizhou appointed people from Jiulitai, such as Huang Jusheng, Yang Dacheng, Huang Yuesheng, Yang Fengxi, etc., and Yang Hanwei, a thousand household officer who participated in almost every battle of the "Red Banner Army", was appointed as his deputy. A veteran is a mid-level and lower-level officer.

Most of the personnel of the newly formed Luanzhou garrison camp came from the handyman guarding the mine, the armed guards of the original households, and organizations similar to the security regiment that maintained the law and order of the Kaiping border.

Huang Yizhou trained this team of thousands of people not only to cope with the imperial court inspection, but their combat effectiveness was really improving, and it was not a problem to deal with bandits and bandits.

Give Huang Yizhou another year, and his team's combat power ranking should be second to none among all garrison troops.

The military operations of the "Red Banner Army" are classified as a first-class secret, and ordinary soldiers cannot know in advance, and it is even more impossible to know about the military service.

However, everyone in the "Red Banner Army" knew that the head of the family was planning to go out to take revenge on the Tartars and Jiannu, and take back part of the population of Daming who had been taken captive.

Although they did not know whether the "Red Banner Army" was preparing to go out of Shanhaiguan Pass to Liaodong via the West Liao Corridor to fight against the Jiannu, or to go out to Longjing Pass, Da'ankou and other Great Wall passes to fight against the Mongolian Tartars, they all saw hope.

Because all of these people have direct relatives who were engulfed by the Hou Jin Army and their lives and deaths are still unknown, and some of them even live alone in the "Red Banner Army" alone.

The reason why these bitter and bitter men follow the "Red Banner Army" wholeheartedly is because this is a strong army that dares to go head-to-head with the Jin army.

They look forward to one day becoming soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" and rushing to Liaodong, looking forward to being reunited with their loved ones.

Although it seems very slim, but people have not given up hope.

The military laborers knew the exact news, and the "Red Banner Army" attack was about to begin, with the goal of leaving the customs to kill Jiannu and the Tartars to recapture the population.

No matter where the "Red Banner Army" went to fight, they cried and shouted to follow, because they didn't know where their relatives might be. Who could say for sure whether they were in Liaodong or the vast prairie?
It is impossible to bring all the military service. Hanzi, Song Pengfei and the others selected 1000 people with strong bodies or high military strength from more than [-] people who had participated in the training camp for at least half a year. They were given two pieces of cotton armor to keep out the cold and increase their protection.

These people who don't know martial arts have all trained for a few months to stab with ash pole spears. Those who have martial arts can bring their usual weapons in addition to the ash pole spears.

Now these thousand laborers are full of excitement, as if they will be able to see their lost relatives after being beaten as slaves or Tartars after leaving the customs. In fact, the chance of this may be only [-]% or even [-]/[-].

Most of the laborers know this ratio, but no one is willing to tell the truth. They are talking about having a long gun in their hands, wearing two layers of cotton armor, and encountering Jiannu and Tartars. They will never leave their relatives and run into the dense forest , They must work together to pierce the enemy.

A thousand laborers encouraged each other and reminded each other that they would rather die than turn around and run away. They had to form a formation with long spears to kill the Tartars and Jian slaves. Only by defeating the enemy could they have the chance to regain their relatives.

Even the military service is full of battles, and the soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" don't need to say much. More than 200 teenagers aged [-] or [-] are even newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers.

In the early morning of the fourth day of November, the chief general Huang Han arrived as promised, and the [-] heroes of the "Red Banner Army" assembled in the Da'ankou Pass City cheered thunderously.

Liu Zhilun, who followed, was so excited that his eyes filled with tears. He saw with his own eyes that there were hundreds of children in the "Red Banner Army".

Liu Zhilun was full of emotions, such a loyal minister and good general who does not care about personal gains and losses for the benefit of the country is a model for my generation.

Sending away the "Red Banner Army", the official immediately made a memorial to plead the grievances for the heroes, and also told the emperor that the "Red Banner Army" had done their best, and they even brought their children to the battlefield. The court must give these loyal soldiers a good home.

Huang Han rode his horse to inspect the hero who was about to leave the customs. He pointed to the north and said loudly: "Three hundred miles ahead are the Karaqin Tartars Burgadu and Zhuoerbi who led the way for Jiannu to attack Da'ankou. Ji's tribal location.

There is a city called Qingcheng run by the Karaqin Tatars. There should be tens of thousands of Han Chinese enslaved by them. Now these compatriots are humiliated by the Tatars every day. What should we do? "

"Get out of Guancheng, kill all the tartars, conquer Qingcheng and take back the Han people? Kill, kill, kill!"

"Rescue the compatriots, wash the grassland with blood, blood for blood! Huhuhuhu!"

Huang Han shouted loudly: "Then what are we waiting for? We have all of them, follow me to go out and kill the enemy!"

"Tiger tiger tiger!" The majestic roar shook the mountains, and the heroic Han rushed to the grassland, let the wolves in the north see the lofty ambition of the Han people who swallow thousands of miles like a tiger!
Cars rattled, horses rustled, and the military song of the hero resounded through the sky!
Qingcheng in Harqin Mongolia is located in the middle of Chengde and Chifeng in later generations.

This era is completely different from the later generations. The two cities of Chengde and Chifeng can't even see the shadow of the village, but the Karaqin Qingcheng, which has disappeared in history, is a relatively large settlement of Tartars hundreds of miles away.

The so-called defense of Qingcheng is not as good as a city in a lower county in Daming, and it is only equivalent to the earthen enclosure of the powerful and powerful landlords in the interior of the Ming Dynasty.

The reason why Huang Han knew this place and the general location was that it was recorded in the annals of history because Jiannu stationed troops here for three days before entering the pass.

At that time, there were disagreements within Jiannu. Daishan and Mangguertai disagreed that Hongguo was carrying out a military adventure, and worried that the troops would be blocked by Daming.

In the end, it was the red gangsters who tried their best to resist all opinions. Little Baylor from the Young Men who established slavery, and many Taiji from the Tartars supported him, and the robbers of the later Jin army broke into Daming Pass in three ways.
