Daming wolf ride

After investigation, among the prisoners, there were 140 only sons, more than 270 were over 100 years old, and more than [-] were under [-] years old, and the remaining prisoners were more than [-] people.

The selected captives were each issued dozens of paper money and some dry biscuits and miscellaneous grains, asking them to return home immediately, while the rest were ordered to be exiled immediately.

As soon as the news came out, the prisoners were in an uproar, because the officers and soldiers promised them that they could return to their hometowns last night, but now they changed their face and asked them to continue serving as soldiers, which made it difficult for the prisoners to accept.

However, none of the prisoners dared to question the order of the Jinzhou Army. They had been frightened by the massacre last night and lost the courage to resist.

In the end, they can only comfort themselves, being a rebel is a job, and being an officer is also a job. It is better to be an officer than a rebel. [

After being transferred, the wolf cavalry army expanded to 300 people, led by Cao Bianjiao.

Another Qingqi battalion was built, with 250 soldiers, led by Jiang Wanli.Peng Dachui and 38 of his subordinates were asked to enter the Qingying camp. Shi Dayong temporarily appointed Peng Dachui as the commander and ordered him to follow Qingqi.Peng Dachui had no objection to this appointment.

Take 100 captives to form the left infantry battalion and the infantry right battalion. Each battalion has 1000 Jinzhou soldiers and 200 prisoners.The two battalions have a total of [-] people.

Shao Wu, the battalion officer of the left battalion of the infantry, and Li Dashan, the battalion officer of the right battalion.

In addition, the supply camp of the Sanbao Group of Qi was filled by five hundred former rebels under its department, responsible for logistics such as grain transportation, camping and camping.

In terms of weapons, the number of firecrackers is considerable. There are 260 standard blunderbusses discarded by the Beijing camp in Qiushui Town, 270 new-style blunderbusses held by Chen Shibu Liao soldiers and made by Denglai governor Sun Yuanhua with a lot of money, and 540 rebels from Beizhili The bird gun seized by the Ming army.

There are 250 long knives, 2300 spears, 780 spears, more than 80 axes and 1200 shields.

The four medium cannons were new-style cannons made by the Portuguese from Macau invited by Sun Yuanhua. They are light in weight and can be transported by horse-drawn carts. They are estimated to weigh more than 300 catties. No one knows how powerful they are.Since there were no gunners in the battalion, no one knew how to operate cannons, so the four medium cannons were equal to use.I couldn't bear to throw it away, so I had to be dragged by the baggage battalion until I returned to Jinzhou in the future for disposal.

The firecrackers in the Beijing camp were probably made by the emperor's imperial forest army, so the Ministry of Industry made them very finely, and the workmanship was better than the blunderbuss held by the Jinzhou army.

The new 270-barrel Portuguese guns are shorter than the Ming army guns, but there is no difference in structure, and they are also front-loaded.But after asking those captives, I learned that the range of these firecrackers is farther than that of the army, and there is no need to worry about the danger of explosion.

Shi Dayong, who knew little about firecrackers, was naturally happy when he heard that the blunderbuss hit far without exploding. He gave all the new blunderbusses to the Jinzhou Army, and those eliminated by the Jinzhou Army were given to the infantry Zuoying for use.

In this way, the left battalion of the infantry is full of firecrackers, while the right battalion of the infantry has all kinds of weapons, including all kinds of weapons.

In the afternoon, Zhao Xueqi finally returned with Wang Tiande's [-] rebels. The reason why they didn't come until now was because they were chased and suppressed by Lu soldiers in Shandong.

Zhao Xueqi found Wang Tiande and captured Shahe, and when Chen sometimes died in battle, Wang Tiande was shocked and didn't know what to do.

There were Lu soldiers chasing after them, and Liao troops blocking the road in front. These hundreds of rebels could not escape.

After Xiao Yi became powerful, Wang Tiande finally agreed to follow Zhao Xueqi anyway.But the Lu soldiers didn't know that they had decided anyway. Seeing that there were only a few hundred soldiers in the rebel army, those Lu soldiers chased after them, but they didn't dare to get too close, so they just followed until Wang Tiande He led his troops out of Shandong, and the Lu soldiers stopped chasing him.

When Shi Dayong met Wang Tiande, he didn't have any special impression of this traitor nicknamed "Fool Wang". After interrogating him, he was about to ask more about Kong Youde when Gao Qiqian from Shang County sent someone. [

This time, it was not the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, but a hundred households from the Beijing camp. The purpose of coming was not to make things difficult for the Jinzhou army or to grab the spoils of war, but to hand over the latest pond report issued by the imperial court to Shi Dayong. In addition, Shi Dayong was told the news that Dengzhou had fallen.

Strong fortresses are always breached from the inside, and Sun Yuanhua never thought that Geng Zhongming would rebel.

Dengzhou Defense Battle No.14 In the middle of the night, Geng Zhongming, Chen Guangfu and other Dongjiang Liao generals responded from the inside and opened the city gate, and the rebels swarmed in from the east gate of Dengzhou——Dengzhou fell!

General Zhang Keda committed suicide and died for the country, but Sun Yuanhua was caught in a dilemma. On the one hand, he was a Confucian student, and Confucian education required him to sacrifice his life for righteousness;

In the end, Sun Yuanhua chose to kill himself but did not die. Kong Youde first asked Sun Yuanhua to be the leader and led them to continue working with the court.After Sun Yuanhua sternly rejected him, Kong Youde released Sun Yuanhua in consideration of Sun Yuanhua's previous support and support.

At the same time, a large number of officials including Penglai County Magistrate, Councilor, Chief Soldier, and General Staff were also captured. Twelve Portuguese officers including the Portuguese chief teacher Xie Teixeira Correa died in battle.

The fall of Dengzhou caused Kong Youde's strength to expand rapidly. He not only got 110 Liao soldiers, but also 20 horses, [-] million taels of salary, more than [-] Hongyi cannons, [-] Western cannons, and the rest of the firearms and Jiazhan. , Innumerable, it can be said that the entire Liao Town's military materials have become Kong Youde's pocket.

After their strength expanded, Kong Youde and others began to establish a puppet regime. They first named Li Jiucheng, the oldest, as the top marshal of the capital, Kong Youde ranked second, and Geng Zhongming ranked third. Lai states and counties.

Just yesterday, the rebels conquered Huang County by virtue of their advanced artillery and strong offensive capabilities.

The fall of Dengzhou put Shi Dayong's Jinzhou Army in a dilemma, because he received an order to go to Dengzhou to relieve the siege, but now that Dengzhou has been occupied by Kong Youde, it would be meaningless for him to go to Dengzhou again.

But compared with the Tang newspaper in his hand, the fall of Dengzhou caused much less shock to Shi Dayong.

There are three major events in the Tang newspaper. The first is that Sun Chengzong resigned due to the defeat of Dalinghe.

The second is that the governor of Liaodong, Qiu Hejia, was unable to see things due to illness, and was recalled to the capital by the emperor, and the deputy capital Yushi Sun Ting was appointed as the governor of Liaodong.

The third thing is that the imperial court transferred the Liao army into the customs again, and one transfer was 5000 people.

Commanding the Liao army were Jin Guoqi, general of Ji Town, Jin Guochen, deputy general, Zu Dabi, brother of Zu Dashou, and Zu Kuan, who were known as "the second lunatic".

The combination of these three things seemed like a bolt from the blue to Shi Dayong, causing him to stay there in a daze without responding for a long time, so that the hundred households in the Beijing camp called him several times before he came back to his senses.
