One hundred and seventy-one chapters Jin country mobilization
When the Mongolians saw Huang Taiji agree so happily, they kneeled down and said with conscience: "Great Tiancong Khan, Changsheng Tian will bless you, and the people of the grassland thank you for your kindness."
Everyone agreed to set the time to send troops on the second day of October. Naiman's troops sent 5,000 troops, Aohan's troops sent 5,000 troops, Zalut's troops sent 5,000 troops, Bahrain's troops sent 5,000 troops, Korqin's troops sent 10,000 troops, and the remaining small tribes sent nearly 20,000 troops, and with the guide of the three thousand cavalry of the Kalaqin's troops, they prepared to break through the Ming army's defense from the Ming Great Wall on the Da'ankou line.
In this way, the Mongolian tribes sent more than 60,000 troops, and Huang Taiji also carried out a general mobilization within the Jin Dynasty. This was the largest military operation since Huang Taiji took office, and the goal was very grand and he had to make complete preparations. Since last year, Huang Taiji has been making continuous preparations, and now he has reached the peak of mobilization.
This battle was a national war for Huang Taiji. He mobilized all adult men from all over the Jin Dynasty, from fifteen to sixty years old, leaving the old and weak army to guard the rear and recruited all the elite troops of the Eight Banners.
The two yellow flags and the Zhengbai flag are the upper three flags, led by Huang Taiji, with 22,500 soldiers, fifteen Jiala and seventy-five Niulu. The two thousand white armored soldiers of Bayala and 1,000 Gebushxian Chaoha Guards, totaling 25,500.
The lower five flags were led by the Zhenglan Banner Gushan Ezhenjirhalang, five Jiala, and twenty-five Niulu.
The Inlaid Blue Flag Gushan Ezhen Amin commanded 7,500 people, five Jiala, and twenty-five Niulu.
Zhenghong Banner Gushan Ezhen Sahalian led 7,500 people, five Jiala, and twenty-five Niulu.
The inlaid red flag Gushan Ezhenyuetuo led 7,500 people, five Jiala, and twenty-five Niulu.
The Inlaid White Banner Gushan Ezhen Dudu led 7,500 people, five Jiala, and twenty-five Niulu.
The Jin Dynasty sent a total of 63,000 troops, and about 5,000 Ming and Korean troops who surrendered to the Jin Dynasty during the wars over the years participated in the war. They were mainly firearms, North Korean bird guns, Ming three-eyed guns, single-eyed guns, and many large and small artillery artillery. However, there were no red barbarian cannons, and these 5,000 people were arranged in a mess at the end of the Jin army.
After the leaders of various tribes returned to rectify, the Mongolian soldiers set out from the tribe and headed to the Baimachuan area north of Da'ankou and Xifengkou for Huang Taiji's army to come and meet.
On the second day of the October 2nd, Huang Taiji held a grand oath-taking ceremony in Shengjing. He was also wearing a bright yellow imitation armor, wearing a bowl and a helmet, holding a sword, and the golden dragons on both sides of the black bowl and a helmet were vivid, emitting dazzling golden light in the sun as if he was hovering and ascending. He shook his yellow cloak and climbed up to the high dot platform.
The conch trumpeters on both sides took a deep breath, whispered~~~, the conch trumpeter made a distant sound, which was breathtaking. More than a dozen shirtless men with rat tails of money struggled to hit the drumsticks in their hands, making a sound of cowhide war drums. Tens of thousands of troops were ready to go, and the horses were yelling constantly. Huang Taiji's uncontrollable excitement. Since his father Khan started, when did the Eight Banners Army be so powerful? Ten years ago, when his father was still there, in the Battle of Sarhu, the Eight Banners soldiers were only thousands of horses. But now, after ten years of hard work, tens of thousands of Eight Banners soldiers were wearing armor, and everyone had a strong horse, strong bow and crossbow, tiger spear and big sword. Everyone had a sub-weapon, either Shundao or Pu Dao, emitting cold light in the sun. More than 60,000 soldiers were like swords and guns, quietly waiting for the order to go to war.
Huang Taiji adjusted his emotions and took a deep breath and said, "Since the old Khan launched his army, I have been invincible in the Great Jin Dynasty and conquered the cities and territories. Today, Ben Khan, Huang Taiji will lead you to carry out the largest national war since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, conquered the capital of the Ming Dynasty, captured the Central Plains, turned their gold and silver into our property, and turned their population into our slaves. The Ming people are all sheep, and my Great Jin warriors are all wolf. Now, with Ben Khan, take up your sword and get the glory of yourself, and even more of the Great Jin Dynasty. The great Banan Anduli, please bless your people."
The soldiers in the audience went crazy. They seemed to see the Ming people wailing at their feet begging for mercy. The Ming women were allowed to choose them, and the Ming gold and silver were allowed to take them. Their tribes no longer have to starve, their parents no longer have to work hard, and their children no longer have to hunt. As long as they lie comfortably on the chair, Ming slaves would serve them tea and water.
The soldiers' eyes were red, like wild beasts that wanted to eat people. They were ignited by Huang Taiji's words. Yes, the south is a paradise of wealth, but the Ming people would not give it to themselves. What should I do? Then I rob them and use the sword in my hands to kill the Ming people so scared that they crawled at their feet.
I don’t know who took the lead, but the soldiers let out wild wolf howls: “Long live the great sweat! Long live the great gold! Long live! Long live! Long live! Long live!”
Huang Taiji nodded. It seemed that he had successfully ignited the passion of the army. The morale of the army was available. Without further ado, he waved his hand and said, "Warriors of the Great Jin Kingdom, use the swords in your hands to obtain everything you want and go to war!"
Woo~~~~, Dongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong, the conch horn and drum sounded at the same time, the two yellow flags were the leader, and behind the two red flags, tens of thousands of troops emerged from the gate of Shengjing. In order to show his bravery, Huang Taiji did not go to the central army, but personally led the two yellow flags to walk in front of the team. The soldiers of the Eight Banners saw their sweat at the front, and the golden dragon woven was always at the front of the team. They were inspired by Huang Taiji's courage and shouted to follow behind. The battle in Ji Si year began.
In a humble house in Shengjing, a carrier pigeon rose into the air and flew towards Ningjin. The Ming army wrote only one sentence in detail. The Eight Banners army may attack the Ming Dynasty. The carrier pigeon fluttered its wings and flew towards Jinzhou City like an arrow leaving the string.
In Jinzhou City, Yuan Chonghuan is studying the situation with his generals. Recently, the Eight Banners have been frequently moving, and detailed reports have been constantly spreading to Yuan Chonghuan. Although they are not sure about the final goal of the Eight Banners, one thing is certain that such frequent military mobilizations should be the scale of national war as the Jin Dynasty. The intensity of the combat will definitely not be worse than that of Sarhu ten years ago. So is it necessary to attack Mongolia so large? According to the routine of the Jin soldiers, the Mongolian soldiers and Jin soldiers can be fully equipped with the military.
There is no need to attack other disobedient Mongolian tribes in one place, and there is no need to push them all over the line. Do they want to attack the Ming Dynasty? The lessons of Ning Jin's victory are still vivid in my mind. How long has it been, they have healed and forgotten the pain. Don't they know that Ning Jin's defense line has been built by themselves? Currently, Ning Jin has gathered 50,000 elite Ming troops, and the essence of the Liaodong Army is here, including 20,000 Guanning Iron Cavalry. These 20,000 soldiers are the only troops in Yuan Chonghuan's hands that can be used to fight against the Jin soldiers head-on and fight against the Jin soldiers.
In terms of firearms, since the one-fire attack, Yuan Chonghuan realized the benefits of the Red Barbarian cannons, so he concentrated fifty Red Barbarian cannons, more than a hundred general cannons, big and small Folang machines, and tiger squat cannons in the Ningjin defense line. In terms of muskets, everyone in Guanning Iron Cavalry is equipped with three-eyed guns, and the infantry also has a large number of bird guns and single-eyed guns. He has told Zheng Zhilong to contact Liu Yi and let him even out a part of the new army fire guns to strengthen the defense of himself. Zheng Zhilong has already eliminated.
Liu Yi was notified, and Liu Yi agreed immediately. Yuan Supervisor guarded the border for the country and should strengthen his military equipment. Liu Yi gave Yuan Chonghuan a thousand 26-style gestures to show respect and gratitude. After all, Yuan Chonghuan recommended himself. Zheng Zhilong was envious and jealous. Yuan Chonghuan gave him free of charge if he wanted the gun. He had to pay 10,000 taels of silver. But when he thought about it, he felt relieved. Yuan Chonghuan was Liu Yi's old superior, and he was a defeated general under Liu Yi, and how could he compare with Yuan Supervisor.
Liu Yi knew that there was a change in the second year of Chongzhen, but with his arrival, Yuan Chonghuan took the position of governor of Liaodong in advance and managed Liaodong better. He told Zheng Zhilong that he would remind Yuan Chonghuan to be careful of the Jianlu invasion at the end of the year. Zheng Zhilong specially sent people to transport muskets to Liaodong, and reminded Yuan Chonghuan of the Jianlu invasion at the end of the year. Combined with the intelligence, Yuan Chonghuan considered that there was such a possibility and immediately equipped the Ningjin defender with one thousand muskets. The soldiers were amazed when they got the new guns, and they all said that with such a powerful weapon to defend the city, the Jianlu would kill as much as they came. Yuan Chonghuan also reminded Zhao Shujiao to strengthen defense and not slacken, so as to prevent the Jianlu from attacking from the north.
Yuan Chonghuan was in full swing with the generals in the hall, and a messenger rushed in: "Report~~~~, Supervisor, there are pigeons delivered to Shengjing. Please check it out." After that, he handed over a small bamboo tube with a red ribbon tied on it.
Yuan Chonghuan opened the bamboo tube, took out the small paper roll, opened it, and immediately frowned. The generals on the side saw the expression of the adult suddenly became serious. Everyone knew that something bad might have happened. Yuan Chonghuan handed the note to everyone to pass it on. Everyone saw it and it changed color. The Jin soldiers were dispatched. It seemed that the situation in Liaodong was about to change again. But what they didn't expect was that the target of the Jin soldiers was actually the capital. They thought it should be the same as usual. This was also a fixed-line thinking pattern at that time. For the huge Ming Dynasty, the Jin soldiers could only fight 60,000 people, which was a drop in the bucket for the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, everyone had interactions with each other against the Ming army. Before the change of Jisi, the Jin soldiers did not have an absolute overwhelming advantage over the Ming army. People in the north might have a stronger awareness. If they were placed in the south, most people still thought that the Jin Kingdom was just a disease of scabies.
