The victory in the Second Battle of Daling River suddenly made Ding Yunyi a well-known figure in the Ming Army at the border.
Zu Dashou promised to give Ding Yunyi 500 war horses as long as this battle can be won. Now it's time for him to fulfill his promise. But Zu Dashou doesn't have to worry at all. In this victory, a large number of Jinlu's horses were captured, which completely
It can satisfy Zu Dashou's promise.
Both Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui were busy with post-war work, and taking this opportunity, Ding Yunyi also went to Jinzhou to see this historic city.
Since the failure of the Jinzhou Defense War, Jinzhou has suffered great damage. However, after three or four years, the city has tenaciously regained its vitality.
After walking around the city for a long time with Huangfu Yunjie and our guide Deng Changgui, we felt a little hungry. We randomly found a restaurant to eat, but found that it was already full.
It turned out that the news of the great victory had reached Jinzhou, and the people were all in high spirits and drank wine to celebrate.
The waiter was a little embarrassed. He looked around the restaurant for a while and found that there were only two guests sitting in a seat near the window. So he went up to discuss with them for a while, then came back to discuss with Ding Yunyi. The two guests had agreed.
Everyone squeezed in.
Ding Yunyi saw that both of them were about forty years old, dressed simply, and did not look like rich people. He went up and cupped his hands: "Excuse me."
"You're welcome." The dignified middle-aged man on the left smiled and said, "We are destined to meet you thousands of miles apart. Please take a seat."
Ding Yunyi ordered the food and drinks and looked at the two people opposite him: "I dare not ask Mr. Gao for his name."
"Huang Jue, this is my housekeeper. We are small businessmen who come to Jinzhou to do fur business." The middle-aged man replied: "May I know your name, sir?"
"Ding Yunyi, these two are my companions."
Huang Jue was shocked: "Could it be Ding Yunyi who was like a god after the Jin army broke through the Daling River?"
Most of Jinzhou knows about the deeds of Ding Yunyi and Wu Sangui. Ding Yunyi said politely: "It's just a fluke."
"Oh, it's really you." Huang Jue was surprised and happy, and called the waiter. He only said that everything Ding Yunyi ate today would be charged to his account.
Ding Yunyi saw that he and the housekeeper were dressed simply, and he was probably just a small businessman, so he repeatedly said that he would invite them. Huang Jue was a generous person and did not refuse much.
Huangfu Yunjie murmured in his heart, this is good, the one who entertains has become the one who is invited. He is indeed a businessman, and his calculations are very smart.
Huang Jue poured wine for Ding Yunyi, Huangfu Yunjie and Deng Changgui, and kept praising them: "When I arrived in Jinzhou, I heard about the great victory at Daling River, and also heard about two young heroes, one named Wu Sangui, and the other two young heroes.
One of them is you, General Ding. I admire him in my heart and wish I could see it with my own eyes, but I never expected that my wish would come true."
Huang Jue immediately said: "The general Duduo who led the army of Hou Jin Dynasty is just an incompetent person. The general should really take off his head and command the world. That is a truly remarkable achievement."
"I'm not that capable yet." Ding Yunyi sighed: "What I do is nothing more than to stop the Jurchens so that our Han land will no longer be plundered, burned and killed."
"Oh?" Huang Jue seemed a little curious: "I come from the mainland, and I have always heard about things at the border. Are the Jurchens really that scary?"
Ding Yunyi sneered: "Burning, killing, looting, and doing nothing evil, isn't it just terrible?"
"I would like to hear the details." Huang Jue said very seriously.
Seeing that the other party sincerely asked for advice, Ding Yunyi had nothing to hide: "On November 18th of the first year of Tianqi, Nurhachi ordered Heshuo Aminbeile to lead five thousand troops to execute the forced relocation order, and ordered the guerrillas in Phoenix City to move Zhenjiang and Tangshan
, Kuandian, Zhendongbao, Zhenxibao and other small villages were forcibly relocated to Sarhu. In order to force the people to relocate, Nurhachi also ordered Gushan as the boundary, and the south of there
All the houses were set on fire. It was the middle of winter at that time, and the Han people who were forcibly relocated took their wives and trudged along. It is not difficult to imagine the depth of their suffering."
Huang Jue nodded slightly when he heard this. Deng Changgui had been at the border for a long time and knew it well. He said on the edge: "More than these? On the twenty-fourth day of the first month of the second year of Tianqi, Nurhachi led his army to Guangning. He occupied Guangning only ten days later.
, in the document issued to the capital on the fourth day of February, another man-made suffering was created for the Han people in Guangning Jiuwei west of the Liaohe River, and the people of the Jiuwei were ordered to be sent to the east of the Liaohe River, and Jinzhou II was stipulated.
The guards moved to Liaodong, the Youtun guards moved to Jinzhou and Fuzhou, one guard from Yizhou moved to Gaizhou, another guard from Yizhou moved to Weining camp, one guard from Guangning moved to Fengjibao, Guangzhou
The other three guards of Ning Dynasty moved to Shenyang. This migration was also carried out forcibly in the severe cold winter. The migration of the Jinlu to the Han people was extremely coercive and sudden. Nurhachi issued the relocation order the first day, and the Jin army moved the Han people the next day.
They drove the Han people on the road; the Liao people were unwilling to migrate, so the Hou Jin army set fire to their houses, and used their swords to increase their necks and massacred them to force the Han people in Liaodong to migrate. In November of the first year of Tianqi, the Hou Jin army moved to the south of Gushan.
Set fire to all the houses, and you will have nowhere to stay if you stay where you are without moving. In February of the second year of the Apocalypse, Dabeile Daishan became angry and killed all the three thousand Han people who stayed behind and did not want to surrender.
They were killed in the same way. Those who were moved to designated strange places had no houses, no food, and no fields. The principle of Houjindutang's resettlement of these relocated Han people who had no three things was that large households should be included in everyone, and small households should be accommodated.
They shared small families, shared houses, shared food, and shared fields for farming. This deprived the relocated people of their land. In a word, Nurhaci reduced some Han people to serfs of the Jinlu through forced immigration."
"That's right." Huang Jue listened very carefully and nodded slightly: "It's a bit too much in this matter. It's no wonder that there are always riots in the land ruled by the Jurchens, and no matter what methods they use, they can't be quelled.
"
Deng Changgui took a sip of wine, and his expression showed anger: "More than that? General Fang Ding also said that wherever the golden captives came, they burned, killed and looted. Nurhachi's conquest of the Han region in Liaodong was always accompanied by
Burning, killing, looting, and plundering. Everywhere the Jin army came, they killed people wantonly, set fire to houses, and looted officials and private property of Han District. They were cruel and barbaric. Kaiyuan and Tieling were important towns in Liaodong. In the forty-seventh year of Wanli,
The Hou Jin army captured Kaiyuan in June and Tieling in July. They massacred the Han people in these two cities and plundered property wildly. They killed and plundered tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Kaiyuan. In order to transport these looted crystals to the Hou Jin, Nurhaci
The transportation capabilities of Hou Jin and Kaiyuan were mobilized at that time. After five or six days of transportation, the transportation was still incomplete. One can imagine the misery of the Hou Jin army's looting of Kaiyuan. After brutally looting Kaiyuan City, they returned
At that time, they set fire to the houses, government offices, buildings, and terraces. When there was nothing more to loot in Kaiyuan, they set fire to Kaiyuan and burned it to rubble. The people in Kaiyuan City had a clear understanding of Nurhachi's cruelty.
They would rather choose death than become obedient people of Houjin.”
The more Deng Changgui talked, the angrier he became.
In March of the first year of Tianqi, after the Hou Jin Army captured Liaoyang, they brought massacre and plunder to Liaoyang. After the Eight Banners Army captured Liaoyang, the Later Jin Army actually sent a general to sit at the west gate and saw "Liao people with suspicious appearance"
.That is to say, "point and kill". The officials of the Later Jin Dynasty were simply careless.
Before the official release of the looting, Nurhaci issued an order that stipulated that wealthy households could only leave nine pieces of clothing, middle-class families were allowed to keep five pieces of clothing, and low-class families were allowed to keep three pieces of clothing. All other property should be handed over. This order
The Han people in Liaoyang were bankrupt and their houses were empty. Later Jin gathered the clothes robbed in this way on the military field of Liaoyang and provided them to the Jurchen and Mongolian nobles to pick up and enjoy. Then the Jin army attacked Guangning
The looting was particularly crazy. They not only looted things on the surface, but also dug three feet into the ground and snatched away things buried underground by Guangning residents.
Nurhachi sent a document to the capital of Guangning saying: "Stop building the city and order the soldiers to dig out the buried treasures inside and outside Guangning City. If you get two or three hundred taels of silver, give it to the person who dug it; if you get one thousand or twenty thousand taels, it will be given to the person who dug it.
, give half to the person who dug it. If you get more satin or python satin, hand over part of the top quality, and give the rest to the person who dug it. If you get grain, the person who gets it can sell it."
In order to obtain property, Nurhachi actually organized soldiers to dig three feet into the ground. This kind of robbery organized by a high-ranking commander is an anecdote in the history of Chinese wars and even the history of world wars.
Huang Jue also had a solemn look on his face when he heard this, and his brows were furrowed, but the butler next to him had a gloomy look on his face.
"Actually, in my opinion, Nurhaci is also an incompetent person." Ding Yunyi said suddenly.
Huang Jue was immediately surprised and hurriedly asked why. Ding Yunyi smiled slightly: "There are obvious differences between the Jurchen and Han people in their hair style. The Han people have full hair, while the Jurchen people have braided hair. Nurhaci changed the Han people's hair styles and shaved off their hair.
As a sign of his return to the Jin Dynasty, every time he captured a place where the Han people lived together, he ordered the Han people to shave the front half of their hair, and the second half of their hair to be cut and braided in accordance with the custom of the Jurchen people. You must know that the hairstyle of the Han people has been
Continuing for thousands of years, this hairstyle is combined with the Han people's concept of "the body's hair and skin are given to parents and dare not be damaged, which is the beginning of filial piety", forming an important part of the Han people's national dignity and national integrity. Therefore.
The Han people value their hair very much. The Liao people once said, "We don't care about life and death, so we shave our heads and make a fool of ourselves. If the Japanese army kills them without distinguishing between true and false, we will die as unjust ghosts."
He glanced at Huang Jue and said: "Nurhachi insulted the dignity of the Han people in Liaodong and tried to assimilate the Han people by forcing the Jurchen hair style. In this regard, he is not as enlightened as A Gu, the ancestor of Wanyan Jin.
No matter how many places the Jurchen conquers, the struggle between shaving and anti-shaving will never stop, so I say that he is not as good as his ancestors."
"After hearing what you said, I suddenly became enlightened." Huang Jue said repeatedly.
The butler beside him said quietly: "Master, it's getting late, you still have something to do."
"Ah, yes." Huang Jue looked reluctant to leave: "Originally, I wanted to continue a long conversation with the general, but I have important matters and I really can't stay for long. General, I admire the general, please accept these things.
, wait until I leave to open it and take a look."
With that said, he asked the housekeeper to put down a small baggage, and left the hotel regardless of whether Ding Yunyi took it or not.
"Humph, aren't you just trying to renege on the debt? Maybe there are some rags left behind." Huangfu Yunjie muttered and opened the baggage. As soon as he opened it, his eyes suddenly widened.
Oh my god, there are two yellow gold ingots inside, each weighing about fifty taels.
"Oh my God." Huangfu Yunjie quickly closed the bag and looked to the side, as if he was afraid that others would come to snatch it. Fortunately, no one noticed the diners. Huangfu Yunjie stuck out his tongue and said: "One hundred for a meal
Two gold coins, I have never seen this kind of handwriting."
Deng Changgui was also dumbfounded. This is no small businessman. He is simply extremely rich!
Ding Yunyi frowned, as if he was thinking about something extremely difficult. After a while, he suddenly asked: "Do you remember what he just said thank you for?" He said, "It's no wonder that there are always riots in the land ruled by the Jurchens."
No matter what kind of methods he uses, he can't calm it down. He is not from the mainland, so doesn't he understand the situation? Also, he only said the word "Jurchen" from beginning to end, and never mentioned "Jinlu"
, could it be”
He murmured the person's name: "Huang Jue, Huang Jue Aijueluo? Huang Huang Tai Chi?"
Ding Yunyi suddenly whispered: "Huang Jue, no, that person might be Huang Taiji!"
Huangfu Yunjie and Deng Changgui were dumbfounded. Deng Changgui didn't believe the truth. "No way, Huang Taiji is a captive chief. How could he come here?"
"Even if it's not Huang Taiji, he must be someone closely related to Huang Taiji!"
Ding Yunyi stood up suddenly and rushed out of the store, but where could he find it in the huge crowd?
At this time, he saw Huangfu Yunjie and Deng Changgui coming out, and hurriedly called Deng Changgui to his side: "Hurry up and ask Zuzong Town to seal the city gate. No suspicious person can be spared!"
Deng Changgui did not dare to neglect and went to do it immediately.
Ding Yunyi knew that there was little hope of catching that man. If that man was really Huang Taiji, he would have already thought of how to escape since he dared to enter Jinzhou.
I really deserve to die. Why didn't I think of who that person was earlier? I let such an important person go in vain. But I can't blame myself entirely. Why does Huang Taiji look completely different from the portrait I saw in another era?
?
It seems that the Jurchens deliberately painted Huang Taiji as tall and powerful to satisfy themselves.
If there was a camera in this era, it would be great to be able to take pictures of Huang Taiji's true appearance.
It's a pity that these are all fantasies, Ding Yunyi thought bitterly in his heart.
