Chapter 58 The Qing court is chasing troops behind
Tuomohuoguo, the assistant leader of Hunchun, was affiliated with Xianghuang Banner. In the 38th year of Qianlong's reign, he took over the position of Xianghuang Banner's World Management Coordinator.
His grandfather was Gesanda (township chief) of the Niuhut family of the local Kurkhaqi people, named Bakshina. Their family originally made a living by hunting otters on the river near Hunchun. Kangxi 53
When Niulu was established in 2001, the three Gesandas in the tribe were replaced as hereditary assistant leaders.
Under this rights inheritance system of "father dies and son succeeds", even if there are no heirs or one is dismissed due to crime, brothers and uncles will inherit the rights, and the rights do not leave the family.
In the 16th year of Qianlong's reign, Hunchun Zhenghuang Banner's assistant chief was dismissed from his post, which resulted in the hereditary assistant chief of Zhenghuang Banner becoming a public assistant chief, and the hereditary system changed to the election system in Niulu. And Tuomo Huoguo's position was
The yellow flag and the white flag were safe.
(According to the "Qing Huidian Cases", all those who have no roots and are not under the same surname when they are first compiled are the public and secondary leaders.)
According to the court's practice, when a vacancy in Hunchun's co-lead is vacated, one person is usually selected from among the three banners to replace it. After the previous co-leader Yongde left office, Tuomohuoguo also acted as deputy for a period of time. I originally thought about this
It was his turn to be promoted to the position of co-leader, but the imperial court appointed Wu Teshan, the Duke of Zhenghuang Banner, to be promoted to co-leader.
The dream of being promoted was ruined. The two thousand taels of silver that Tuomo Huoguo had previously sent to General Jilin's residence were wasted, causing him to be in a very bad mood in the past two months.
Serdan escaped that night, resulting in the death of three of his soldiers and one serious injury, which made Tomo Huoguo furious. He led his soldiers on a chase for forty miles; however, due to the darkness, it was difficult to find traces, so he had no choice but to lead his troops.
Returned to the village again.
At dawn the next day, Tuomohuoguo sent out his own Goshiha and asked him to pass an order to the fifty Niulu armored soldiers who were left in Amidakaron to search the mountain, ordering them to come quickly to meet up and report to the association.
Lead the Ute Mountain; at the same time, send ten armored soldiers to track down the traces left by Serdan and his family. If you find anything, report it immediately.
The reason why he sent Goshiha to report to Ute Mountain was to get supplies. The food and grass he originally brought was insufficient. If he wanted to go further north, it would be impossible without food replenishment.
After returning to the village that night, Tomohuoguo interrogated all the villagers overnight and finally learned that Serdan had a good friend named Henji in the fishing village at the mouth of the Suifen River.
On the evening of the second day, fifty armored soldiers who came from Amidakaron on horseback rushed to the village.
More than an hour later, Tomohuoguo's Geshiha also returned from Hunchun City, reporting that the co-leader had agreed that Tomohuoguo would lead one hundred soldiers to continue arresting Serdan and Yalha; and Wote
Shan has ordered a knight from the cavalry school to lead ten armored soldiers, fifteen bannermen, and five grain and grass carts to join the investigation together with Tuomo Huoguo. They are expected to arrive tomorrow.
Tuomohuoguo finally felt relieved. What he was most worried about was the lack of food. Now that he had all the food and grass, he was just waiting for the ten reconnaissance soldiers to report back.
At night, ten armored soldiers returned and reported that they had followed the tracks of horse hoof prints and sledges and found that Serdan's family had all gone to the village at the mouth of the Suifen River.
Because there were too few people living in the fishing village, people would notice if they made the slightest move, and the ten soldiers had already eaten all the dry food they had brought. In order not to alarm the other party, the team leader decided to come back first to report.
Tomohoguo was overjoyed when he heard this. He knew that the fishing village was surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the Seldan family had nowhere to go except to escape to Bear Island in the south.
Co-leader Wu Teshan briefly mentioned to him that there were people staying on Bear Island and doing business with that Yalha, but the specific number of people was not known.
But Tomohoguo didn't take it seriously at all.
At the beginning of spring every March, Hunchun Xie Ling Yamen will send troops to inspect the fourteen islands in the South China Sea, as far as Solenji Island. In recent years, the inspection missions have been led by Tuomo Huoguo. His inspection of Bear Island The plants and trees on the island are so familiar. Even if someone stays on the island, he has more than a hundred armored soldiers with swords and arrows under his command. Are you afraid?
At noon on the third day, the Xiao Riding School sent by Hunchun had arrived with a horse-drawn sledge to transport food and tents, and they also brought twenty more horses.
As soon as Tuomohuoguo saw that everyone had arrived, he immediately ordered everyone to set off immediately, with sentries leading the way to the fishing village.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, hundreds of armored soldiers surrounded the small fishing village and immediately began to search every house.
After a flurry of excitement, some frightened villagers reported that before dawn yesterday, Hengji and another family drove two horse-drawn sledges south, probably to Bear Island.
Tomohuoguo confirmed that the other party had landed on Bear Island, but was not in a hurry. It was already getting late, so he immediately ordered his men to set up tents outside the fishing village, bury pots to make food, and set up a temporary military camp.
Before dinner, Tomohuoguo, who was eager to achieve meritorious service, ordered the cavalry school who led the team to transport food to stay at the camp tomorrow; while he led a hundred armored soldiers to the island to search and capture the fugitives.
Lord Zuoling has been thinking about this all day long.
Even if Yarha committed murder and absconded, and committed several rebellions, it was committed during the tenure of Ute Shan and had nothing to do with him. Therefore, even if the imperial court and Jilin General Yamen were to blame, it would be Ute Shan who would bear the blame; As for Seldan's murder and absconding, it was because he was deceived by him. However, it was precisely because he ordered a strict search that Seldan's whereabouts were exposed and he was exposed and injured.
I will go to the island tomorrow and capture the two fugitives and their families in one fell swoop. This achievement is a real military achievement.
As for Wu Teshan, if such a big thing happened during his tenure, the imperial court might eventually remove him from his position as co-leader and replace him with himself.
Having planned everything, Tomohuoguo slept very peacefully that night. At this time, he had no idea what was waiting for him on the island opposite.
In the wooden shed of the observation post on Bear Island, Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng were chatting about cargo ships and weapons. While Liu Sheng was listening with excitement and fascination, Lu Shoushan came over and whispered to Zhao Xin: "Master, they Coming!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Where is it? Elu is back?" Zhao Xin lowered his head and took a quick step, got out of the wooden shed, and asked Lu Shoushan.
"Elu just came back for a while and was eating. He told me that the officers and soldiers were camped outside the village across the sea and it seems that they will come tomorrow. I will ask him clearly and I will come back to you as soon as possible. "
Zhao Xin hurriedly asked: "How many people did they come?"
"It was too dark, so Erlu only took a rough look. It was estimated that there were more than a hundred soldiers and hundreds of horses. Oh, by the way, they also had five sledges, which seemed to transport grain and grass."
Liu Sheng remained silent and listened silently, thinking about the encirclement in his heart.
"Seven of Sheng Haizhou and the others know how to use pistols?" Zhao Xin asked Liu Sheng uncertainly.
"Well, I've fired ten bullets, so it's not a big problem."
Zhao Xin nodded slowly and said to Lu Shoushan: "Let Elu and Sheng Haizhou do it."
When Lu Shoushan turned around to call for people, Zhao Xin said to Liu Sheng: "There are more than a hundred armored soldiers, and there are only twelve of us. Counting Sheng Haizhou and seven others who can use guns, there are only nine. It seems that the firepower output tomorrow will be
It’s up to the two of us.”
Liu Sheng smiled indifferently: "What, are you scared?"
Zhao Xin rolled his eyes at Liu Sheng, not caring whether he saw him or not. "What are you afraid of? I'm worried about the wounded. At my level..."
"Hey, I heard Lu Shoushan said that you are like a god." Liu Sheng said jokingly.
"They don't know, and you don't know? It almost made me nervous to death. It was just a matter of climbing up the tree with a helmet on, and bravely climbing up." Zhao Xin lowered his voice and laughed at himself.
As soon as he finished speaking, Sheng Haizhou, Lu Shoushan, and Elu all came over.
"Shoushan, ask Elu to drive the sledge to pull Sheng Haizhou and the others back first, and then come back to pull the three of us."
"Master, Mr. Sheng and I will stay here. You and Mr. Liu will go back first."
Zhao Xin nodded noncommittally, then smiled at Erlu and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
After listening to Lu Shoushan's explanation, Elu shook his head indifferently.
"Sheng Haizhou, the four of you will go back soon." Zhao Xin said to Sheng Haizhou.
"Lord, there will be no one on duty here tonight."
"No need tonight, we will come back tomorrow. Qing soldiers will not come here at this kind of night."
More than three hours later.
It was already late at night, but the camp was brightly lit, and many refugees opened their tent curtains and looked nervously at the location of Zhao Xin's RV.
The lights in the car were brightly lit, and the chairs and corners were filled with people.
"Zhino, you will wait for news in the camp tomorrow. You and Wan Zao's wife must settle the people in the camp and prevent them from going out."
"Hai!" The two women immediately knelt on the floor.
"Sheng Haizhou, all six of you will be issued fist guns (pistols) tomorrow. Remember, no one is allowed to shoot first without orders from me and Lord Liu. Before shooting, please turn off the safety!"
"Haha!" All seven people bowed and knelt down.
"Shoushan, tomorrow you will work with Elu to attract the Qing soldiers from the observation post to the river valley. Then you will quickly find a place to hide. The gunfire will not stop, you and Elu must not show your heads."
"Yes, sir." Lu Shoushan knelt down on one knee and bowed in agreement. He raised his head and said to Zhao Xin: "Master, give me a knife, and I can help you."
"Yes, sir, so am I." Pan Xiucheng also knelt aside and said.
"No need, you will know after you see it tomorrow. If you ask me, you might as well hold a shovel with a knife." Liu Sheng said with a smile.
"Ah? Get a shovel?" Pan Xiucheng asked in surprise.
"Yes, when the time comes, we will dig a hole to bury the corpses of the Qing soldiers." Liu Sheng said jokingly.
Lu Shoushan and Pan Xiucheng were stunned for a moment, and then they laughed.
Zhao Xin explained Liu Sheng's words to everyone in the island country, and Sheng Haizhou and others also laughed.
"Everyone, please get up. The place is too small. If you kneel down, I won't dare to stand up." Zhao Xin waved his hand and motioned for everyone to get up.
"Tomorrow morning at four o'clock...oh, no...we will set off at Yinzheng time. Everyone go back and prepare. Remember, wear warm clothes!"
After saying that, Zhao Xin asked Zhinai, Asong, Lu Shoushan, Pan Xiucheng, and Elu to leave first, while the six Sheng Haizhou stayed.
Liu Sheng then took out six SIG P226 tactical models (the front end of the barrel is extended by 15 mm and can be installed with a silencer) and twelve magazines from the bag at his feet.
Zhao Xin took out six silencers from another bag. He and Liu Sheng installed the silencers on the pistol one by one.
"Don't load the bullets yet. Fill the magazines with bullets before setting off tomorrow morning. Each person has a pistol and two magazines."
The seven Sheng Haizhous were filled with nervous and exciting emotions, and they took the gun and magazine from Liu Sheng with excitement and seriousness.
"Lord, will this gun be ours from now on?" Jiuzang asked Zhao Xin excitedly, holding on to the gun and magazine.
"Well. As long as you don't make any mistakes, I'll give it to you."
"Ha ha!"
After Zhao Xin finished speaking, all seven of Sheng Haizhou knelt down and bowed in salute.
(Since the Ming Dynasty, our country has had two South China Seas. The "South China Sea" in the north covers an area north of the current estuary of the Tumen River and east of Hassan, Primorsky Krai, Russia, and belongs to the Sea of Japan.
Part. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, it was once the residence of "Wild Jurchens".
According to "Jilin Foreign Notes" written during the Daoguang period, Heijin (i.e. the South China Sea) has different names. The southeastern coast of Hunchun and the area adjacent to the South China Sea are called Chakar. The lower reaches of the Songhua River, more than 3,000 miles northeast of Sanxing City, are all located together.
The area from above to the east and west banks of the Ussuri River is called Hezhe (i.e. Kurkaqi), the area from the bottom to the northeastern island is called Feyaka, and the southeast is called Kuye.)
