In Quaning City, Dorgon is very worried. You can tell by looking at his messy hair. The Jurchens are not very good at appearance, but Dorgon is an exception. He pays great attention to appearance. He has been like this several times.
It was rare to see him not dressed up. As he walked around the house, Azig was almost stunned by his nephew.
Dorgon didn't want to wait too long until someone named Tie had solved the Wusi Tibetans and marched eastward to grab business with the Qing Dynasty? He wasn't worried about Tie's stopping the Qing Dynasty from going south. He was just afraid that this guy would come and take advantage of it.
Benefits, benefits gained by the Qing Dynasty, why should they be distributed to Tie Mo?
Azig was also frowning and thinking hard. Could he be aware of the difficulties that the Qing Dynasty was currently facing? Dorgon had just inherited Lin Dan Khan's territory. Although the tribes seemed to obey on the surface, it was hard to say whether they were really convinced.
In addition, the Qing Dynasty is short of food. Therefore, whether it is to boost the prestige of the Qing Dynasty or to allow the Qing Dynasty to survive this winter safely, a war must be launched. This war can only be won but not lost. Inexplicably, Aji
Ge thought of something. He came to the case and spread out the map to look at it. Then he slapped his forehead and laughed loudly, "Yes, yes!"
Azig laughed loudly, which frightened Dorgon so much that he breathed a sigh of relief and asked quickly, "Brother, have you come up with any good ideas?"
"Thirteenth brother, we are all a bit brainless. Why do we have to fight so hard to attack Daru City? We will not attack Daru anymore. We will send most of our troops to the south, storm Dashawo, and then invade Yongping territory. Huh?
Huh, let’s see if the Han people can still sit still?”
After Azig finished speaking, Dorgon was shocked. He shook his head and said in disbelief, "Brother, is this too risky? If the southerners gather troops from all over Shandong and Hebei to block Yongping, Yang Sichang will send another
The army occupies Dashawo and Daning and cuts off our retreat, then our Jurchen warriors will suffer heavy losses."
In fact, what Azig said did mean that he would go deep alone. No wonder Dorgon was surprised. Azig was not in a hurry. He sat in a chair and took a sip of tea. "Old Thirteen, you were terrible at what you did before.
It's not so rigid. Bypassing Daru, laying down a large sand nest, and entering Yongping directly is indeed very risky. But do you think the current Ming Dynasty officials have the courage to recruit the army from the south to go north? I'm afraid
, He is more blaming Yang Sichang for letting my army march into Yongping. Next, there is a high chance that an imperial edict will be issued to force Yang Sichang to leave the city and fight our army. Aren't you just waiting for the Han people to leave Daru?"
Huh? Dorgon completely understood Azig's intention. It seems that his seemingly reckless elder brother is not useless. Why didn't he think of this? Zhu Youjian is not Tie Mo. He is cautious, but also cautious.
He loves great achievements and loves face. If the warriors of the Qing Dynasty break through the sand nest and approach Yongping, they will definitely cause a panic to the Ming court, and the Ming emperor's face will definitely be dull. How will Zhu Youjian choose?
Hehe, if he had known about the increase in troops, he would not have been suppressed by Tie Mo and could not hold his head up. Zhu Youjian can never distinguish the priorities, his face is damaged, and he has no courage to mobilize troops in the south of the Yangtze River.
Come here, Yang Sichang must find a way, and he can even force Yang Sichang to go out of the city for a decisive battle.
Do it as soon as he thinks of it. Dorgon feels that what Azig said is right. Since inheriting Lin Danhan's territory, his mind is much less aggressive than before and he is too cautious. On the other hand, the iron man is always scheming.
Although it was risky, the effect was very good. If Zhou Dingshan's soldiers had not sent out from the Sandan Kangsang Snow Mountain, could they have captured Namtso so quickly? If he wanted to capture Daru City, he would have to take some risks.
After finding his own soldiers, Dorgon removed a command arrow and said with a serious expression, "Immediately rush to the north of Daru City and tell Dodo Beile that from now on, we will march eastward from Shunzhou to the Sanla River and bypass Daru.
The city of Dashawo must be captured by Ben Khan within two days."
The soldiers of "De Ling" took the order arrow and hurried to Shunzhou City, north of Daru. In the evening, Duduo got the order from Daning. He was a little doubtful about Dorgon's military order.
, but he did not dare to question the military order. However, Duduo knew Dorgon's temperament, so Duduo was also cautious, for fear of making a big mistake. However, Duduo was one of the few Jurchen masters in the art of war, and he quickly figured it out
found the key.
Of the more than 20,000 Jurchen soldiers stationed in Shunzhou City that day, more than 10,000 Jurchen soldiers suddenly left the city and headed east. That night, they gathered under the Sanlahe City with the Azig army that had arrived. Sanlahe River
It is a small city, and because its geographical location is not important, Yang Sichang did not send many people to garrison it. He only left a thousand soldiers and horses as a symbolic garrison. Almost 30,000 Jin soldiers suddenly arrived at night, close to a thousand soldiers.
How to hold on?
In the blink of an eye, the Song army withdrew from the city and gave way to the Sanla River. When the Sanla River fell, Yang Sichang didn't even understand what the Jurchens wanted to do. In the evening, Duduo led his troops out of the city, and the news was very clear.
The news soon reached Daru City. At that time, Yang Sichang was puzzled. Why did Duduo run eastward? What happened next made Yang Sichang even more confused. An army of more than 30,000 people besieged the Sanla River.
Damn it, why did the Jurchens conquer Sanlahe? Are there grains and treasures buried under the city of Sanlahe?
If Yang Sichang was just confused at this time, then what happened the next day was shocking. The Jurchens did not stay behind after they captured the Sanlahe River, and then went south to attack Dashawo City, facing the fierce attack of more than 10,000 Jurchens.
, Dashawo City only persisted for two hours and then declared its fall. Only then did Yang Sichang understand what the Jurchens wanted to do, which was to go south to Yongping.
After understanding the intentions of the Jurchens, many generals in Daru City laughed heartily. Some even scolded Dorgon for being kicked in the head by a donkey. If he went to Yongping like this, wouldn't he take the initiative to dig into his pocket? By then Daru
The army left the city and occupied the large sand nest to block the back road. The imperial court then sent a large army to garrison the Baigou River. At that time, there was no need to attack. The more than 30,000 Jurchen barbarians could starve to death on the north bank of the Baigou River by being trapped. The lone army went deep and the equipment was insufficient.
, the food supply is not guaranteed, why did Dorgon make such a big mistake?
Different from those generals in the army, Yang Sichang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, his brows were tangled, and his hands were constantly tugging on those precious yellow beards. As His Majesty's favorite, Yang Sichang was very clear about His Majesty's thoughts. His Majesty did not
If you can send reinforcements, your majesty thinks that the more than 100,000 troops from Daru City are enough. If a 100,000 troops cannot stop the Jurchens, then you are completely incompetent. Your majesty does not know the situation in Hebei, let alone what war is. He
I have never been to the north in my life, so how do I know how big it is here? It is not difficult for a hundred thousand troops to defend Daru, but the problem is that Hebei is so big that it is impossible to guard Daru in every place.
If the Jurchens don't fight you, they will take a long way around, and they won't even be afraid of cutting off their retreat. They just want to go around and fight somewhere else. What can you do? Let alone 100,000 people, let alone 200,000 people. If they don't fight you,
You are just an empty display. Alas, your Majesty doesn't know such a simple truth. With his poor military talent, he must have thought that a hundred thousand troops would be able to defeat the Jurchens.
Yang Sichang knew how difficult the predicament he faced was. The Jurchens' move was tantamount to forcing the imperial army near Daru to leave the city for a decisive battle. But how sure were they of actually setting up a decisive battle? The Jurchens' cavalry even saw the Mongols.
Shivering, how could he contend with tens of thousands of infantry under his command? After much deliberation, Yang Sichang finally made up his mind and wrote a letter to the capital. Regardless of whether it works or not, he must explain the current situation. As for whether His Majesty will listen to it.
Listen, it depends on God’s will.
Yang Sichang's letter and the letter from Hebei arrived in the capital one after another. At noon, Zhu Youjian was accompanying Taiziwan. After reading the letter, Zhu Youjian became angry, but it was not Dorgon who was angry, but Yang Sichang. "How can this be unreasonable?"
, How is this unreasonable? What did Yang Sichang do? I gave him an army of more than 100,000 people, but he was still able to let the Jurchens capture Dashawo. What use do I need from him?"
Zhu Youjian slapped the table, furious, slapped Yang Sichang's letter on the table, almost jumped on his feet and cursed, "Reinforcements, reinforcements, reinforcements, where are the reinforcements, a hundred thousand troops are not enough? Wang Banban, immediately
The purpose is to order the Daru side to regain Dashawo as soon as possible to avoid causing greater panic."
"Yes, yes, your Majesty, calm down. I will send someone to convey the order." As soon as he left the Imperial Study Room, Wang Chengen had some words in his heart but did not dare to say them. Even he, who was not familiar with military affairs, felt that what Yang Sichang said was reasonable, but His Majesty could not listen.
Go in.
Is it powerful if there are more people? If there were more people, the Ming Dynasty should have wiped out the barbarians in the north. The Jurchens are more tyrannical than the Mongols. Why doesn't your majesty realize this? You still count on Yang Sichang to take the initiative.
, fight back the Jurchen barbarians.
The generals in Daru City were eager to fight. Yang Sichang had to find a way to suppress these excited generals. Two days later, the imperial edict from the capital arrived. After Yang Sichang saw the expected edict, he could only smile bitterly. Going out to fight in the city?
I really have no confidence at all. It is certain that as long as the army leaves the city, Dorgon, who is waiting in Daning City, will definitely mobilize all the remaining soldiers and horses nearby to join Daru. By then, Dorgon will be able to gather seven soldiers and horses in a short time.
With 80,000 people, it seemed that the Ming Dynasty still had the numerical advantage, but in terms of combat effectiveness, it was as if they were as big as the sky.
After receiving the imperial edict, Yang Sichang ostensibly agreed, but he refused to go to war for various reasons. Either he said that the soldiers were tired and needed to recuperate, or that they needed to prepare food and grass. In short, Yang Sichang adhered to the procrastination tactic. If you have the ability, you Jurchen barbarian will go all the way.
To fight southward, it is best to cross Yongping and directly enter the territory of Damingfu. As long as you are far away from Daru, you can directly mobilize the army to attack Daning and besiege Dorgon. Yang Sichang's dragging tactics are not bad at first.
It really gave Dorgon a headache, but how long can this drag trick last?
Ignoring the situation of Daru, let’s talk about the situation in Anduo City. It is already the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month. The iron governor is sitting in the house wrapped in a cloak and warming himself by the fire. The wind and snow weather on the Wusizang Plateau is really not what ordinary people can do.
Those who can endure it, let alone poets, even the war horses are starting to have problems. In order to avoid bigger problems, the cavalry has retreated to Namtso, leaving only a few hundred people as scouts. Taking the city of Anduo is just a matter of course.
To start, the next step is Luosu City, but before that, Damu City must be solved first. As long as Damu City is taken, Anduo City, Damu City, Naxue City and Garmadansa City can be connected to one line, and then
There is no need to worry about instability in the rear.
Damu City is a very strange place. There are few plains on the Wusizang Plateau, but near Damu City there is hundreds of miles of flat fertile land. The Baili Plain is also a place where cavalry gallops, and Wusi City is active in Damu City.
The ten thousand Yeruwei cavalry are the most brave and capable in Tibet. Damu, originated from the ancient Sumerian civilization, is the god in charge of plants and reincarnation in mythology, and is the unique god of health in Sumerian mythology. Damu city is named after
In this way, Damu City will always be safe and safe from disasters. For hundreds of years, Damu City has really had no trouble, but now, a black mark must be left on this ancient civilized city.
To defeat Damu City, you must first think about how to deal with the Yeruwei cavalry. Tens of thousands of cavalry are not so easy to deal with. Sometimes I have to lament the bad nature of human beings. They dare not be of any nationality. They are always full of intrigues. The Ming Dynasty competes for fame.
The same is true for the Usi Tibetans when it comes to seizing profits. If Urtu, the lord of Damu City, had not had a dispute with Serban, it might have taken a lot more effort to capture Anduo City. As for Serban and Urtu
It would be even more interesting if there is any festival. I heard that Sereban stole the woman Urtu liked because of her good looks.
"Sir, Daru recently sent news. Dorgon's actions are getting faster and faster recently. We have to hurry up. How to fight Damucheng? You have to make a decision as soon as possible!"
"Aqige, my eldest princess, do you really regard this governor as an omnipotent god? If you say there is a way, you can find a way?" Tie Mo picked up the charcoal and said that he was unhappy, but after he finished speaking, he was stunned.
After he stopped, he looked at Aqige, then threw away the iron rod holding the brazier, clapped his hands and said with a smile, "There really is a way. Don't the Wusi Tibetans fear gods? Let's show him a dance this time!"
"
After speaking, Tie Mo clasped his hands together and thought silently in his heart, great Sumerian gods, whether we can take down Damu City this time depends on you.
In Sumerian mythology, the god Tianan is the supreme god in Mesopotamian worship. He governs the heaven and earth, protects the gods, and upholds justice. The Wusizang myth also has many things in common, but it has been spread
The most popular one is the legend of the witch picture. According to the legend, the witch wreaked havoc, causing constant ice and snow, causing the death of countless cattle and sheep. Later, the Buddha was born and melted the witch with Buddha's light. The melted witch was suppressed under the Jokhang Pagoda, and
Princess Wencheng and Songtsen Gampo were even beautified as messengers of Buddha.
Of course, most of this myth was made up by Songtsen Gampo in order to consolidate his rule, but the Usi Tibetans are superstitious and firmly believe in the legends of witches and Buddhas. What the Iron Governor has to do is to use the hands of gods to fool Usi again.
