Win the Ding 1617

The flags are like a forest, the swords and guns are like a sea, and the people and horses are like a tide.The soldiers and horses of the Qing army were also a mighty torrent, with no end in front and no end in back, from Nanjing to Suzhou, and from Suzhou to Wuxi.The forward soldiers and horses have arrived in Huzhou, the Hangzhou defenders have already begun to prepare for the arrival of General Zhengnan, but the rear soldiers and horses are still in Jinling Mansion.

Jiangnan is densely populated and densely populated with towns.Often a city and its subordinate villages and towns look at each other and hear each other.There are also relatively developed roads connecting them, and marching should have been a pleasant thing.However, the water network in the south of the Yangtze River is dense and the rivers are criss-crossed. Often there are several rivers between the county town and the town. Even if there are bridges on the river, the stone arch bridge is like an insurmountable moat for the brigade, horses, vehicles and artillery. .

Soldiers and soldiers belonging to the brigades of the various banners and towns, with different accents and appearances, struggled forward on the land of the south of the Yangtze River.All the ministries carried a lot of luggage with the army, and, as the army went south, the number of luggage vehicles also increased day by day, and became heavier day by day.Not only has the luggage become more and more heavy, but the entourage has also become more complicated, including many women.The mystery inside is well known to everyone.Behind the Chinese army brigades of various ministries, there are countless civilian men, transporting food, grass, materials, gunpowder, guns and other luggage.All kinds of donkey carts, horse carts, mule carts, pickers, the kind of hand wheelbarrow called ** bus, winding densely to no end.

Crowded in groups in front of the rivers, yelling, shouting, shouting and shouting.

This is the typical state of Boluo's soldiers and horses marching.

On both sides of Taihu Lake, countless boats, such as opposite-row tank boats, official boats, "Wuxi Express", painting boats, and even small sampans were conscripted to help the Qing army cross Taihu Lake down and down.

"With such a mess, when will the whole army cross Taihu Lake and reach the city of Hangzhou?"

A huge official ship served as Bolo's ship.On the tall mast, Boluo's handsome flag and woven golden dragon banner slammed loudly in the gusts of autumn wind blowing from the lake.But Bolo wasn't even the slightest bit interested.He looked at the large and small boats densely dotted on the lake, and sighed in his heart.

"Master, it doesn't have to be like this." Boluo's confidant, the Jialazhang Jingbalhu who led the Bala soldiers for him, stood at the bow of the boat, holding an iron helmet in his hand, letting the autumn wind on the lake blow the money rattail. You have to swing around.

"Now we have more than 1 soldiers and horses. One general and two lieutenants have entered Hangzhou Mansion, and more than 3 soldiers and five generals have arrived at Huzhou Mansion. This counts, excluding the garrison of Hangzhou Mansion, We already have 5 soldiers in Zhejiang. It is no less than Shi Lang's soldiers. Even if we see a battle, these soldiers and horses will be strong enough to hold Shi Lang and the remnants of the robbers for a while. At that time, the master will command the new force to stab out diagonally and give Shi Lang a hard blow. Not to mention Zhejiang, even Jiangnan will be settled from now on."

"What do you know?!" Balhu's few words were meant to reassure Boluo, or even flatter him, but in the end, they touched the sensitive nerve in Boluo's heart.He changed color suddenly, cursed, then got up and entered the cabin.Leaving Barhu himself on the bow deck for a moment, he walked a few steps into the cabin.

"Look at these!" The cabin is divided into two parts, inside and outside, and the inside part is naturally Boluo's bedroom, and people's sight is blocked by curtains.However, there was a faint scent of powder coming from inside, presumably there was a woman inside.The outer room was arranged as a signing room.It can be used by Boluo for office work, handling military affairs, and meeting guests and generals.Boluo took out a stack of paperwork and letters from the book guard on the table, "You dog slave, open yourself and read!"

He said he wanted to let Baerhu see it for himself, but Baerhu didn't know a few Chinese characters of the Eight Banners Manchuria haha ​​beads. Of course, he could still read the characters on the Tongbao on the silver dollar.How can I read so many official documents and letters?

At that moment, after Bo Luohao lost his temper, he ordered someone to call a pen teacher to come in and read these official documents and letters to Balhu one by one.

The official document was sent by Pingnan Commander-in-Chief Leke Dehun after he set off from Nanjing.Between the lines, I told Boluo proudly that since I dispatched troops, I have been fleeing against Li Huabao's troops. I have recovered several counties in succession, and I will soon be stationed in Songjiang Prefecture.The goal of recovering Shanghai, driving Li Huabao out of the Eastern Ocean, driving the Nanyue Army Navy out of Shanghai, and regaining control of the Yangtze River waterway is just around the corner.In order to accomplish this goal, you, Boluo, as the king's deputy and partial teacher, must contain Shi Lang's troops for the king on the front line in Zhejiang.You can't let him run away. Once his 10,000+ men flee back to Gannan, Pianyuan, or even Guangdong, then you will spoil the king's affairs, and the king will have to use the marching method.Nor can he be allowed to devote one soldier to the direction of Shanghai.If so, then you have to face this king's military law!

"This dog slave with two red flags! Holding the regent's thigh, he is showing off in front of us!" Boluo is the third son of Rao Yubeile Abatay, who was born in Manchuria with a white flag. Lu Kede was stunned, and he felt that his status was much higher.However, whoever made the two red flags lucky, Shuo Tuo and Adali, two characters who stood in line early and stood up well.Not only did he get on the regent Dorgon's boat early, but he also desperately helped the Dorgon brothers to paddle.As a result, now that Dorgon is so powerful, these people who started from the dragon early also ascended to heaven with chickens and dogs.

Naturally, Luck Dehun, who was born under the Five Banners, also had the identity and courage to issue orders to Bo Luo, who was born under the Two White Banners, and forbid him to defeat the enemy and make meritorious deeds.

After listening to the written notes and reading the official documents, Barhu couldn't help jumping up and down in the cabin and yelling.In the Qing army, a military and political entity that respects military merits and everything must be based on military merits, if you don't allow others to make military merits, it is equivalent to a deep hatred like killing your parents.

"Listen to this again."

The pen post style continued to read another document in an uninteresting tone.This is a letter written by Prince An Yue Le from Huguang.As Abatai's fourth son, Yue Le's luck is much better than that of the third brother Boluo.Whether it is official luck, wealth luck, or military merit.Yue Le told Bo Luo in the letter that my errand in Huguang was almost done.Immediately, he was ordered to lead troops into Sichuan to command the troops of Aobai and other troops currently in Sichuan to deal with the remnants of Zhang Xianzhong, that is, his four adopted sons and the troops of the four generals including Ma Yuanli and Bai Wenxuan.

"Master! The four masters have made great contributions in Huguang, and they are about to go to Sichuan to wipe out the remnants of Zhang Xianzhong's western thieves. Now, if we still make wedding dresses for others, then let's not say that we don't have a place in the court. At home, we don't have any face in front of the old master!" Baerhu's exasperated words precisely expressed Boluo's heartfelt feelings.

He sat on the chair and pondered for a long while, then suddenly asked without thinking, "If we break through Shi Lang in the front, enter southern Jiangxi, Fujian, or even our general's commander-in-chief enters Guangdong, the Prince Regent will What do you think? General Pingnan can’t say that this general did something wrong, can he?”

"Master, this slave is also trying to tell you this!" Barhu saw that his master was ignoring Le Ke Dehun, and he planned to defeat Shi Lang to make meritorious service, so he followed his master's wishes and strengthened his confidence.

"Well, that's it! Barhu, where are you going?!"

The officials sent by the Suzhou government to act as guides came to inquire, and the guide replied that this place has passed the red dusk, passed the border between Nanzhili and Zhejiang, and entered the territory of Zhejiang on the eight hundred miles of Taihu Lake.

"The general does not know that Taihu Lake has a radius of 36 miles. It is called 72 "buildings" and 36 "ports". The so-called 72th floor is in Zhejiang, and 70 ports are in Nanzhili. These one hundred and eight Villages and towns are headed by Daqiankou. The local elderly over 72 years old say that it doesn’t matter if they can’t read. You must memorize these [-] characters. These [-] characters are the place names of the ports in Taihu Lake (remember these few words), you can take the goods out of Taihu Lake to do business. There are several villages and ports in Taihu Lake. Wherever you want to go, remember these words and you can find the place to go and the way home. This one hundred and ten The eight characters start with big money. (Dabaizhu Shen'an) "Da" stands for Daqian Village, "Bai" stands for Baicao Village, "Zhu" stands for Zhumu Village, "Shen" stands for Shenmu Village, and "An" stands for Angang Villages. Dabaizhu, Shen'an, Luo Huan, Xingnian, Jiupanpan (two Panmu villages), Jin Jinxu, Yang Xie (two Jinmu villages), Yichen Juwu, Jiangqianshi Tangchang, Song Xuexue, Dingding, Yidianhong ("red" stands for Hongming is the border between Zhejiang and Jiangsu, Hongming used to be Port [-] of Jiangsu, and Lujiagang is the first port, we have already passed Lujiagang and are on our way to Daqiankou.” The guide was still chattering He kept on talking, but was thrown out by Boluo, who was already a little irritable.

"Baerhu, after you have arrived at the big money, you will take your master's general's order and arrow, and gallop to the towns and ministries that have already landed to pass on the general's order. No matter which battalion or town, you must speed up your march so that you can If you arrive in Hangzhou one day in advance, the General will reward you with 2000 silver dollars! For every day in advance, you will get [-] silver dollars! For the most, this general will reward you with another [-] silver dollars!"

In Daqiankou Town, Baerhu led a hundred soldiers of the Eight Banners to abandon their boats and land, and galloped across the marching ranks to deliver the latest military order of the Great General to Conquer the South.Wherever this order went, it was like a whip slapping a giant beast fiercely.The giant beast paused for a moment, then responded quickly.Tens of thousands of horses and horses flew frantically towards Hangzhou.

"If Yue Le can successfully pacify the remnants of the thief Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan and stabilize Sichuan, and this general will defeat Lord Li Guogong's son-in-law in Zhejiang, and the subordinates of the mighty general Shi Lang, and enter southern Jiangxi, Fujian and Guangdong, then our family will No one else can shake your achievements, right? Ama will also feel proud in front of her uncles, and show off her sordid and useless air for so many years!"

In September of the 11th year of the Mandate of Heaven (1626), at the beginning of Huang Taiji's accession to the throne, Zhu Baylor was rewarded and a banquet was given.Among the Baylors who attended the banquet, Daishan, Manggurtai, Amin, Azig, Dorgon, Duoduo and Yuetuo were the most prominent.Although Abatai is 38 years old, because he is only a Baylor, his seat is ranked below Zhuhe Shuo Baylor.Seeing his younger brothers and nephews mingling with each other and drinking happily, he deeply felt that his face was dull and his heart was depressed.When I returned to the mansion, I couldn’t help complaining to my subordinates: "I will never go to a banquet again!" .”

Regarding Abate's dissatisfaction, Huang Taiji naturally would not take action to deal with Abate's dissatisfaction at the beginning of his ascension. He was very skillful and handed over this issue to the people and masters who were offended by Abate.Therefore, Daishan, the head of the four major Baylors, took the lead in speaking: "Before this, you were not even qualified to discuss with the five ministers. Dege Lei, Jierhalang, Du Du, Yue Tuo, and Shuo Tuo have already participated You are not in the discussion of politics. Because you are among the younger brothers, your father Khan allocated you six subjects of Niulu, so you have the status of Baylor. Who do you want to bully today? Azig, Dorgon, Dorgon Duo is the son of the whole banner given by the father Khan, and Zhu Baylor is ranked eighth ahead of you. You are now Baylor, and you are still not satisfied. You want to be tied with the three major Baylors (referring to Shan, Mang Gurtai, and Amin) , Disturb the government. If you become a big Baylor, wouldn't you have the idea of ​​calling yourself Khan again?"

Amid the chorus of reprimands from all the big Baylors, Abatai, who had been upright and confident, seemed embarrassed, so he had to bow his head and confess his guilt, willing to be punished.This time, he was punished with eight carved saddle horses and plain saddle horses each, and four sets of armor.However, this also became the resentment of the Abatai family towards Huang Taiji and the two red flags on behalf of Shan.

"Fourth brother, your third brother and I have a good job in Jiangnan to kill the enemy. You must also defeat the enemy in Sichuan. As long as we brothers make great achievements, even if others are greedy for their own achievements, it will be difficult to suppress us. Home momentum!"

Boluo looked far away to the west, and the sky to the west was already full of clouds and glowing clouds.But will things go the way he imagined?

Thousands of miles away from Taihu Lake, where Boluo is located, Shunqing Mansion and Luzhou Mansion in southern Sichuan have become the base camp of the Great Western Army in Sichuan.

At this time, Shunqing Prefecture is roughly equivalent to the current Nanchong City, Sichuan Province, with two prefectures and eight counties under its jurisdiction, namely Xichong, Yilong, Peng'an, Yingshan, Quxian, Yuechi, Linshui, Dazhu, etc. land.The famous "Wine City" Luzhou Prefecture is an important city in the junction of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou, and has jurisdiction over Jiang'an County, Naxi County, Hejiang County, and Gulin County.Among them, Gulin County, which is famous for Langjiu, faces Guizhou across the Chishui River.On the other side is Xishui County in Zunyi Prefecture, Guizhou.This place is unknown, but when it comes to the Battle of Tucheng, everyone knows it.Participants in this event included two generations of the party's leading core leaders, one prime minister, two terms, seven marshals Zhu De, Peng Dehuai, Mao Zedong, Liu Bocheng, Luo Ronghuan, Nie Rongzhen, Ye Jianying, and 200 generals including Chen Geng and Song Renqiong. This battle should be unprecedented.

Of course, Naxi County, as the main road leading to Yunnan, also became famous both at home and abroad for a battle.That was the Battle of Mianhuapo in the Battle of Protecting the Country against Yuan.

In 1916, the Yunnan Huguo with Cai E as the main force went north to "discuss Yuan Huguo".Unexpectedly, when entering Sichuan to besiege Luzhou, they were frustrated and retreated to Naxi. The situation was reversed, and the "offensive war" became a "defense war".Facing the Beiyang Army, which has dozens of times more troops than the guards, the guards who attacked Luzhou "hang by a thread."Mianmianpo is the throat of traffic from Naxi to Luzhou, Yunnan, and Guizhou. The terrain is dangerous, it is a barrier and commanding height of Naxi, and it is a must for the two armies.As for the Beiyang Army, among the generals who directly or indirectly participated in this battle, such as Zhang Jingyao, Xiong Xiangsheng, Cao Kun, Wu Peifu, Feng Yuxiang, etc., the warlords, marshals, presidents, and leaders of the Northwest Army during the Beiyang warlord government Later, the Vice Chairman of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government participated as an offensive party.Relying on the advantages of equipment and ammunition, they bombarded the defense position day and night, trying to break through.And Cai E, the commander of Yuan Jun who defended the country, sent a more powerful figure to these later warlords, commanders and presidents.At that time, Zhu De, the captain of the sixth branch of the third echelon regiment of the first army of protecting the country, became the opponent standing opposite the generals of Mianhuapo.

Later, the "Father of the Red Army", Commander-in-Chief of the Red Army, Commander-in-Chief of the Eighth Route Army, and Commander-in-Chief of the People's Liberation Army led 80 death-defying soldiers in a more legendary posture to break into the main position of the Beiyang Army in night battles and hand-to-hand combat, and started hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.Facing the sudden appearance of the guards, the Beiyang Army was caught off guard, frightened out of their wits, and fled in all directions.Amidst the shouts of killing, the more they fought, the more courageous they became. They crossed the trenches, rushed to the enemy's position, and rushed to the enemy's headquarters, winning a complete victory.In this campaign, Zhu De defeated an enemy whose strength was dozens of times greater than his own with 80 death-defying soldiers and at the cost of more than a thousand rounds of bullets.By the way, as a digression, in Mr. Zhu's early military career, there are many stories of leading the Death Squadron and the Bravery Squadron to personally charge and fight hand-to-hand.This can only be described by the word legend, and it can only be said that their generation is related to my Chinese luck.

Decades later, Wu Yuzhang still remembered this battle when he congratulated Zhu De on his 60th birthday: "You are the vanguard of the battle to protect the country. The battle at Lantianba (Mianhuapo) in Luzhou caused Zhang Jingyao to fall, and Wu Peifu and Cao Kun were at a loss. Yuan Shikai was terrified, and eventually overthrew Yuan's imperial system and preserved the name of the Republic of China." Zhu De later mentioned the "Battle of Mianhuapo" in his autobiography: "I learned how to fight big battles at that time. I am the head of the regiment. It is still possible to command three or four regiments and one front."

Shunqing Mansion, Luzhou Mansion, and the adjacent Xuzhou Mansion are all under the banner of the Great Western Army.

Sun Kewang's commander-in-chief's mansion is now located in the government office of Shunqing Mansion.
