Since becoming one of the four Baylors, Amin has not been very interested in fighting.
When his father Shuerhaqi and Nurhachi had a falling out, Amin chose to abandon his father and join his uncle. Not only was he not executed, but he also gradually gained Nurhachi's trust.
Later, in Nurhachi's eyes, he was as favored as his biological son.
Because of this, Amin was able to compete with the Nurhachi disciples and still had great power.
Amin's idea is...
Anyway, I can't be a prodigy, but I also made great contributions back then. I owe the most to Daikin to what it is today. So it doesn't matter if I'm special, right?
His idea, in practical terms, is indeed correct.
He took refuge with Nurhaci, which ensured the unity of Jianzhou Jurchens and allowed Nurhaci to preserve the foundation for hegemony.
Otherwise, it is not certain whether Nurhachi can conquer the Jurchens in Jianzhou, let alone conquer the Haixi Jurchens.
Unfortunately, Amin met the ambitious Huang Taiji.
Huang Taiji and Nurhaci are different.
Nurhachi just felt that his people could not survive anymore and were bullied by the Ming Dynasty, so he wanted to rebel.
Huang Taiji felt that being a profuse was not enough.
He wants to be emperor.
Since you want to be an emperor, you should stick to your word and let the world follow you.
What's the point of having an eight-year-old Baylor standing next to you and pointing fingers?
Therefore, from the first day he ascended the throne of Great Khan, Huang Taiji's only thought was how to weaken the Eight Belles and establish his own unique authority.
The first target he set his sights on was Amin.
Because Amin is not Nurhachi's biological son, his internal human relations are naturally inferior.
Secondly, Amin was unruly and did not take him seriously. Especially when he was conquering North Korea, Amin's delay in returning made Huang Taiji very nervous.
Amin like this is really suitable for sacrificing a sword.
When his invasion of Ming Dynasty brought huge benefits to the tribe and his reputation reached its peak, Huang Taiji began to take action.
After returning to Shenyang, he immediately ordered Amin to go to the pass to take over from Abatai and others to coordinate the war.
But he brought all the army back, leaving only more than 5,000 people for Amin. This was obviously with bad intentions.
Amin naturally saw it, but he had no choice but to do it, and of course he didn't want to die.
Amin felt that even if he disobeyed orders and abandoned the city and ran away, the most he would do was to be scolded by Huang Taiji.
Therefore, when Luanzhou was lost, he immediately called back all the troops from Qian'an and Zunhua. He did not want to stop for a moment and ran north after massacring the city in Yongping.
On the way, the scouts rushed towards him in panic.
"Master Beile, there are Ming troops at Qingshui Pass."
Everyone was shocked.
"Didn't the Ming army at Qingshui Pass surrender? They rebelled again?"
Turg asked in confusion.
Houjin's scouts were professional and told the situation immediately.
"It's not the people who guarded the gate before, but the new Ming army. They used all the firearms, including some big blunderbuss."
Namutai was worried.
"How many people are there in the Ming army?"
The scout reported the situation which gave everyone some peace of mind.
"About two thousand."
This number made Amin make a misjudgment that he would regret for the rest of his life.
"Ming people are cowardly, and two thousand soldiers are no match for us. Advance immediately, break through the barriers and return home."
No one else objected.
Now if they want to exit outside the fortress, there is no other way except Qingshui Pass. And their thoughts are the same as Amin's. More than two thousand Ming troops are not enough for them to kill.
Later, the Jin army moved quickly and rushed to the pass in the evening.
Amin originally thought that the Ming army would defend the city, but when he arrived at the scene, he discovered that the Ming army was actually arrayed outside the city, and they were arrayed on both sides of the Shah River.
"Hahaha, after I capture this group of Ming army generals, I will definitely ask him, how did he get such courage?"
Bao Chengxian hurriedly reminded: "Da Beile, don't underestimate the enemy. Look, the Ming people have deployed big guns on the mountain."
Amin looked down on the Han people very much and snorted coldly: "What is the use of such big blunderbuss? This Ming general doesn't know how to fight. If the big blunderbuss is spread so far, I'm afraid it will all fall on one of his own people."
The other generals all laughed, thinking that this must be the case.
Chakara asked for orders: "Da Beile, let the last general take the lead and destroy this Ming army."
Amin did not agree.
It is true that he looked down on the Ming army, but he was a veteran on the battlefield and could not ignore the rules of the battlefield.
Furthermore, every Jurchen is precious and cannot be wasted easily.
"Bao Chengxian, lead your men and horses, rush away from the Ming army in front of you, and fight directly in. I will send people to support you. This battle can only be won, not defeated."
This is obviously using Bao Chengxian as cannon fodder.
But Bao Chengxian didn't have any complaints, because Hou Jin's battles had always been like this.
Unlike many people who believe that Hou Jin relied solely on cavalry to fight, the main combat force of Hou Jin was actually infantry. They were divided into light infantry and heavy infantry.
The light infantry are Han Chinese, and their main function is to attack in the first wave and consume the enemy's weapons.
Then the armored heavy infantry would move forward, destroy the enemy's fortifications, and strangle them inward to open the passage for the following cavalry.
The heavy armored infantry were all Jurchens, and many of them wore three layers of armor. Unless they were lucky, the Ming army's muskets would not be able to penetrate even within thirty steps.
This is the truth why the Ming army could not defeat the Jurchens in the field.
After receiving the order, Bao Chengxian immediately organized his team and slowly stepped forward.
Amin did not watch the Han soldiers go up to die, but ordered: "Turg, you lead the heavy armored infantry to follow. As soon as the Ming army on the opposite side has finished firing their cannons, move those strange things away.
open."
Amin didn't know that it was barbed wire, but he also knew that it was very effective in stopping the cavalry.
"Shuotuo, you take the cavalry and regroup over there. After Turg opens the gap and fights with the Ming army, follow my order and charge."
Shuotuo also went.
After a while, Amin had noticed more things.
"Tell everyone, this group of Ming soldiers have no armor. When they get close, they will shoot arrows at will."
Where does this fool come from? He dares to go into battle without wearing armor. Has he never died?
Following Amin's orders, the Houjin Army quickly took action.
Bao Chengxian led the Han soldiers to form a queue, holding wooden shields and pushing sidecars and other objects, and started to advance from five miles away.
Behind them, Turg led the heavy armored infantry and followed slowly.
These heavy armored infantry are divided into two types.
The first type holds a firecracker and carries out the first wave of bombardment after approaching the Ming army.
These Jurchen warriors were very brave and brave, and they dared to get closer than twenty steps before firing, which was far beyond the comparison of ordinary Ming troops.
Of course, their protection is better, which is the reason for doing this.
The irony is that these armors originally belonged to the Ming army, but the Ming army's firecrackers could not penetrate such armor.
Then why was Houjin's firecracker able to penetrate the Ming army's armor?
Not to mention cutting corners, the Ming army's armor only had one layer.
Then the Jinhui would have their most elite heavy armored infantry wear two or even three layers of armor. Of course, the Ming army would have no choice.
While the Hou Jin army advanced slowly, another group of people drove slaves and cannons into the position.
Later generations have always believed that the Hou Jin Dynasty obtained artillery after the Wuqiao Rebellion, Kong Youde, and Geng Zhongming and others surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. In fact, the Hou Jin Dynasty had artillery since the Nurhaci period.
Since Huang Taiji invaded, many cities have been blasted with artillery.
At this time, the Jin army wanted to rush through Qingshui Pass, and all kinds of weapons were used.
On the pile of rubble in front of the pass, Zuo Mengeng stood high on it, holding a trumpet in his hand.
He knew that today's battle would be the first battle for the rear camp.
From November last year to now, for half a year, the rear camp has not fought much.
Whether this new army he has worked so hard to cultivate can transform into a powerful army in the world depends entirely on today's battle.
There are more than 2,600 people in the rear camp and more than 5,000 gold.
This balance of forces is just right. There will be neither too few that the rear camp cannot use its strength, nor too many that exceed the endurance of the rear camp.
At the same time, if these slaves want to break out of the tight siege, they will definitely fight tooth and nail.
In this way, the endurance of the entire rear camp can be fully tested.
"where is this place?"
His shouting question received responses from all the soldiers.
"Our land!"
Zuo Mengeng pointed at the approaching military formation and asked, "What are they?"
The whole rear camp was filled with murderous intent.
"robber!"
Zuo Mengeng's loud voice was like thunder.
"These bandits came to our homes to burn, kill, loot, insult our wives and daughters, destroy our homes, and massacre our relatives. Now, they have had enough of their prestige and want to go back contentedly. Tell me, can you
Can’t agree?”
The roars of thousands of people converged into a thunder.
"kill!!!!!"
Each brigade was full of energy and blood, and stepped forward one after another, drawing their sabers.
"Ready to fight!"
The unique trumpet sound of the rear camp swept across the sky, which also kicked off the war.
The arranged Houjin cannon fired first. In the black smoke, black iron balls pierced the sky. Some missed, and some rolled into the rear camp's array, taking away pieces of flesh and blood.
It was obvious that many soldiers were frightened by this tragic scene.
But the long-term education allowed them to still stand upright and wait for the order to fire.
However, Li Xiangzhu didn't need to endure it any longer. He immediately said to the messenger: "Order the First Squadron to knock off the artillery on the opposite side."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden roar on the other side of the river, and then countless people rushed toward the rear camp formation in a roar.
It turned out that Bao Chengxian's troops had already entered the attack range and immediately started running at full speed.
Kuri Xiangzhu added another command.
"The rest of the artillery, aim at the following heavy armored infantry, the scale is 800, positive three times five, fire!"
