The wind rises at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 28 Hun River
Leading the newly recruited soldiers, they had just returned to the camp when they happened to meet Cao Wenzhao who was leading the troops to patrol the camp.

Chen Wang immediately ordered the whole army to stop, then dismounted to salute, and stood aside to wait.

Cao Wenzhao's eyes swept across the group of recruits beside Chen Wang, his eyes moved slightly, and then moved to Chen Wang.

"Qi Jun's selection method?"

Cao Wenzhao's eyes were sharp and piercing, like a bright light, which seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts. At a glance, he could see that the soldiers selected by Chen Wang were in line with the selection method of "Ji Xiao Xin Shu" written by Qi Jiguang.

"Exactly."

Chen Wang lowered his head, bent his back slightly, and clasped his fists in both hands as he replied.

He didn't hide anything about this problem, and admitted it straightforwardly.

"Ji Xiao's New Book" is not a banned book, as long as you have money, you can buy it.

Although Qi Jun had conflicts with the Liao Army and the Jizhen Frontier Army, Qi Jiguang's art of war was not prohibited from being circulated.

In Liaodong's memory, there is a copy of "Ji Xiao's New Book" in the study of Chen's mansion, which is not out of reach.

""Ji Xiao's New Book" is a good book. It is written in great detail when marching troops and fighting against the enemy..."

Cao Wenzhao's expression was complicated, and his mind was full of thoughts. He remembered an old incident in the Tianqi period.

In the first year of the Apocalypse, two armies traveled all the way from the south to Liaodong to help in the war.

One is the white pole soldiers from Shizhu, Sichuan, and the other is the Zhejiang army from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The leader is Qi Jin, the son of Qi Jiguang.

Jiannu besieged Shenyang, and the general soldiers Chen Ce and Tong Zhongkui were ordered to lead the Baigan soldiers and the Zhejiang army to help them, and advanced all the way to the Hunhe River, intending to flank the Houjin soldiers with the Ming soldiers in Shenyang.

But when they reached the Hunhe River, Shenyang had already been breached, so Chen Ce ordered to return to the army.

However, guerrilla Zhou Dunji and other generals repeatedly called for battle and were unwilling to retreat.

The crowd was furious, and all the generals in the camp called for a fight, saying: "We can't save Shen, what will we do in these three years!"

Previously, there was a gap between the Qi army and the Baigan soldiers, so Chen CE and Tong Zhongkui divided the army into two battalions when they launched their battle.

The front battalion was dominated by white pole soldiers, led by Zhou Dunji and Qin Bangping to cross the river and set up camp at the north of the bridge.

Chen Ce, Tong Zhongkui, deputy general Qi Jin, and general Zhang Mingshi commanded three thousand Zhejiang soldiers to set up camp in the south of the bridge.

Later, when the Jin army saw the reinforcements from the Ming army coming, they sent a large army to encircle them.

The Hou Jin army thought that these soldiers were just a weak brigade, and thought that they could be easily defeated with only a wave of charge.

The former army charged unsuccessfully, but Houjin charged with elite Ba Yala, but was also repelled.

Nurhachi then sent his army to help, and surrounded him with tens of thousands of troops.

Under the leadership of Zhou Dunji, Qin Bangping and others, the white pole soldiers guarded the bridge and fought to the death without retreating.

Thousands of those who rushed into the battle of the Jin army died from spears and crossbows, and all the cavalry who rushed into the battle fell off their horses one after another.

The generals of the Sichuan soldiers formed formations to meet the enemy, with thousands against tens of thousands, all fighting bravely.

In the afternoon of the battle, Sichuan soldiers first defeated two white flags and then two yellow flags, beheading two or 3000 horsemen.

After the Jin army lost troops and lost generals, it was still unable to attack for a long time, everyone was shocked, and some even lost without fighting.

In the end, the surrendered rebel general Li Yongfang found the captured gunner of the Ming Dynasty, offered a reward of a thousand gold, and ordered him to fire and attack the Sichuan army.

The Hongyi cannon fired, and finally blasted the Sichuan Army's formation.

The Hou Jin army then swarmed forward. Even so, the Sichuan soldiers were still not defeated at this time, and the generals led by Zhou Dunji and Qin Bangping still resisted tenaciously relying on the remnants of the formation.

It's just that the Sichuan army fought fiercely for a long time, was hungry and tired, and could hardly support, so the army formation was broken.

Zhou Dunji, Qin Bangping, general Wu Wenjie, and guard Lei Anmin all died fighting.

The army formation broke up, and the remnants of the Sichuan Army rushed into the Zhejiang Camp on the south bank. Nurhachi drove the Eight Banners Army to take advantage of the situation and go south.

The 3000 Zhejiang soldiers led by Tong Zhonggui and Chen Ce set up a battalion of chariots and trains five miles south of the Hun River to wait for the enemy.

The Zhejiang army led by Qi Jin was compiled and trained based on "Ji Xiao Xin Shu" written by Qi Jiguang.

The car camp was strong, and the Eight Banners Army could not rush in. Instead, many people were killed and wounded, and the dead slept together.

Commander Zhu Wanliang and Jiang Bi led more than [-] reinforcements as the rear army. When they went to Baitapu, they saw the Eight Banners army besieging the Zhejiang army's chariot camp.

Cao Wenzhao was in the army at that time, and he saw with his own eyes that not far away, the Later Jin Army surrounded the Zhe Bing's chariot camp almost impenetrably.

In the Zhe Bingche Battalion at first, there were fires and smoke, but finally the fire disappeared and the smoke was gone.

Marching and fighting, carrying gunpowder can generally be used for several battles, but the Zhejiang soldiers even wiped them out in the first battle, which is enough to see the tragedy of the battle.

Cao Wenzhao still remembers the humiliation at that time, the [-] army was defeated at the first touch, and the number of the later golden cavalry was only [-].

Zhu Wanliang, Jiang Bi and the others had no intention of rescuing those Zhejiang soldiers at all. At that time, he was just a guerrilla with only three hundred soldiers under his command and two thousand soldiers under his battalion. He wanted to rush to help, but he was powerless. In the end, they could only flee with the masses.

3 people were chased and fled by 3000 people, which is a shame.

As night fell, the Jin army increased again, and the Ming army, which saw its own reinforcements fleeing and surrounded by heavy siege, also fell into despair.

No one surrendered, and no one yielded, at the last moment.

Chen Ce, Tong Zhongkui, Qi Jin, Zhang Mingshi, and the capital officers Yuan Jianlong, Deng Qilong and other generals, a total of more than 120 generals and schools, none of whom surrendered, all fought and died for the country.

"Everyone is united, the mountains... can be shaken!"

They sang the old military songs, held their heads high, and died generously.

Cao Wenzhao's heart turned a thousand times, and finally turned into a long sigh.

He wants to kill thieves, but he is powerless. He has been working so hard to climb up, but he doesn't want to encounter such a powerless situation again.

Looking at the recruits Chen Wang recruited, he thought of the Zhejiang soldiers he had met.

Cao Wenzhao patted Chen Wang on the shoulder and said solemnly.

"Train your troops well."

Chen Wang raised his head slowly, his gaze met Cao Wenzhao's.

"After training your soldiers, return to Liaodong to avenge your revenge!"

Cao Wenzhao had deep eyes, clenched his fists, and said solemnly.

Chen Wang couldn't help but clenched his fisted hands, and an unspeakable indignation rose from the bottom of his heart.

That emotion did not belong to him, but was hidden deep in his heart.

That was the anger and unwillingness of another Chen Wang - Liaodong!Liaodong!

Relatives and family members were slaughtered, and the places where generations lived were occupied.

Being far away from homeland, leaving home, fleeing to Guangning, all kinds of humiliation...

Chen Wang didn't suppress the anger in his heart, he could understand that anger.

"Revenge and revenge."

Chen Wang clenched his fists.

He was unwilling to control his own destiny.

He knew very well that if no changes were made, the flames of war would burn all over the country and spread throughout China in just a few years.

Kyushu splits, Shenzhou sinks...

It is said that the collapse of a building cannot be supported by a single tree.

The torrent of the times is irreversible.

But Chen Wang just wanted to give it a try.

He wants to do what Wen Tianxiang once wanted to do, but failed!

Turn the tide in the fall, and help the building to fall!
　Some people may say water in this chapter. Most of the novels in the late Ming Dynasty did not mention the bloody battle of Hunhe due to time constraints, but I really wanted everyone to understand this period of history, so I wrote it from the perspective of Cao Wenzhao. down.
