Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Wang Cong'er met her husband two weeks before the general offensive in the Shengjing Campaign.Counting it, the young couple hadn't seen each other for almost half a year.

When the sun was about to set, the Seventeenth Regiment of the Beihai Navy entered on the post road leading to Dashiqiao. They set off from Jingyanbao at noon.Wang Cong'er and several female soldiers were standing on the ridge by the roadside, babbling allegro.

On the Liaohe Plain in August, sorghum taller than a human head can be seen everywhere, green like an endless green gauze curtain, and the mature sorghum ears are like countless torches dotted on the gauze curtain, which under the reflection of the sunset glow makes the earth red.The Beihai Navy in grass-green military uniform is like a broad river flowing through the green gauze tent.

The officers and soldiers were full of energy, with neat steps, clean clothes, bright guns, and strong leggings.At first glance, everyone's attire is similar, because everyone is wearing a steel helmet with weeds on their heads, it is difficult to distinguish faces, but people with a discerning eye can tell who is a veteran and who is a recruit. Among the recruits, there are also many Qing soldiers who have been converted and reformed.

The clothes worn by the veterans of the Beihai Navy are [-]% to [-]% new, and some are even brand new, while the clothes of the recruits are relatively old, and there are many patches on the washed white clothes.Those veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles think that every battle is a grand ceremony, and they can't wait to show those bumpkins under the Manchu Qing rule how decent the Beihai Navy is; Fighting is regarded as a kind of hard work, so why wear it so well?Anyway, it's coming and going in the wind and rain, scrambling, and saving the new clothes for when there is something else to wear.

From the demeanor, you can also tell who is a veteran and who is a recruit.On one side of the post road is the advancing combat troops, and on the other side is the migrant labor team pushing wheelbarrows or driving mule carts and carriages. The veterans talked and laughed along the way, chatting and joking with the former migrant workers from time to time, Provoking bursts of laughter from time to time in the migrant workers team.That look is like going to the market, with a calm face.For those transformed recruits, participating in this battle is like entering an examination room as a child, each with their own minds and silent.

The eyes of Wang Cong'er and several female soldiers were like a gentle breeze, stroking the "torrent" of the waves, and the bamboo boards in their hands made a crisp sound.

female soldier!Live!Still very beautiful!

Veterans have long been familiar with this, but recruits are different, especially those former soldiers of the Qing army who have been converted. Although they have heard that there are female soldiers in the army during training, it is the first time on the battlefield. See.At this moment, all they have in mind is one thought, how can women go to the battlefield?
Due to physiological differences, women seldom directly participated in combat in the era of cold weapons. This kind of war world that emphasizes personal bravery cannot open the door to women.But it is different in the era of hot weapons. Women do not need gender alienation, and can play a prominent role in specific fields, and can open a way for women to get out of traditional gender roles and gender shielding.

It took ten years for the time-travelers headed by Zhao Xin to finally get the women in Beihai Town not only out of their homes, into factories, but also into wars.Of course, there is credit for the unremitting efforts of the people who traveled through, but the women among the early naturalized people of the island country also played a big role.After all, there is no tradition of peasant women in island countries not leaving their homes, let alone binding their feet.In addition, the women of all ethnic groups in the outer Northeast are unabated, and there is no saying that women cannot show their faces.

Until now, except for A Miao, Zhao Xin's few women have their own jobs.Although Shen Xuan is the future queen, she still teaches at Beihai Town Primary School and also serves as the honorary principal; Wang Zhenyi went to Beihai Town Higher Institute of Technology to study and also serves as a lecturer at the same time. Her two teachers are Lagrange and the other is Laplace, after a few years, he speaks fluent French; in order to stay away from Shen Xuan, Tang Xiao went to the primary school in Boli Town as the vice principal.

As for Mrs. Elizabeth, she is not a fuel-efficient lamp, well, forget it.To put it mildly, Zhao Xin has nothing to do with her.

"Soldiers, listen to me, let me talk about victory! I fought against the Manchus for nine and a half years, and wiped out thousands of his troops! When the summer offensive began, the first victory was Kaiyuan, and then Tieling and Jinzhou, the Manchus 's reign is coming to an end"

Things like Allegro lyrics are usually improvised. When you see what is what, you just open your mouth and sing, and there is no way to require that it must rhyme.For example, Wang Cong'er saw a big soldier over 1.8 meters carrying a machine gun, carrying a heavy bag on his back, and taking big steps, so he immediately sang: "Big man, hard feet, walking fast, hitting Win, capture Shu Liang alive, definitely, definitely!"

The big recruit's face turned red like a monkey's butt, and he pretended not to hear.At this time, someone in the team called out the older man's name and said, "Su Wan, the girl sang about you, saying that you must capture the imperial court, bah! It's General Shengjing who captured the Qing Dynasty."

Judging from the name, Ganqing is a big man from Hezhe!Because they have been engaged in fishing and hunting for many years and eat more meat, the Hezhe people are taller than the Han people from the pass.But it is rare to be so tall.

The soldiers around all laughed when they heard the words, and they laughed from the head of the team to the tail of the team.Su Wanxao didn't dare to lift his head, but his steps became more and more brisk.

One group of people flowed past, and another group of people flowed over. Wang Cong'er's clear and allegro singing was like a bowl of ice-clear well water in the dog days, which refreshed people and relieved fatigue.

Xu Jian, the company commander of the third battalion and third company, rode a horse and rushed up from behind with the messengers. From a distance, he saw Wang Cong'er standing on the ridge, wearing a slightly fat military uniform, with his hair coiled in his military cap and his belt tight. The light of the setting sun dazzled on the fair and pretty face like rouge.A gust of cool wind blew, the green gauze tent rustled, and the wind blew up her military uniform, showing the mountains and the water.

He reined in the horse, looked at his daughter-in-law, and was in a daze for a moment.He didn't expect to meet Wang Cong'er here, and he unconsciously thought of the day when the two got married, smiling with flowers on their temples, their brows mirroring each other when they were drunk.

Yes, Xu Jian is Xu Funan.After the Battle of Jilin, Zhao Xin felt that he was about to start a family, and it was inappropriate for the brothers to use the nicknames "Fu Nan and Shou Nan", so they changed their names.The eldest is Xu Jian, and the second is Xu Yi.Being "given" by Zhao Xin made many people envy the Xu family brothers.But those who know the inside story understand that because of their relationship with Shen Xuan, Zhao Xin and his wife have actually raised them as sons these years.

The army had a mission. After the young couple met, Wang Cong'er took out the letter that Shen Xuan asked her to bring from her backpack, and a pair of thousand-layer bottoms that Wang Cong'er sewed by herself.Xu Jian took the shoe and turned it over to look at it, and saw that the stitches on the sole were twisted and crooked.This girl doesn't like female celebrities very much, so her mother has a lot to lose.

Seeing the weird expression on her husband's face, Wang Cong'er bit her lower lip and said, "It took me two months to make it, so I can't say it's not good-looking."

Xu Jian is so sweaty, how dare he say no, he praises and praises in a hurry.

Wang Cong'er suddenly said: "Hey, do you still have cans of braised pork? The rations issued by our political work team are not as good as your combat troops. They have been eating vegetarian for several days."

"Have!"

After hearing what his wife said, Xu Jian asked the messenger to give all the canned meat in the pouch on the horse to the female soldiers present.Several female soldiers were holding a large package of canned meat, swallowing their saliva, wishing to open it immediately to satisfy their cravings.

"There's canned salmon too, isn't it?"

"Ah! Fish roe, give me two." Wang Cong'er smiled like a flower, she likes to eat this most.She will not be able to catch up with the salmon migration season this year, and she expressed a few words in the letter to her mother a few days ago.

Regardless of the fact that Beihai Town has opened more than a dozen pig farms, and nearly [-] big fat pigs are slaughtered every year, which is terrifying in this time and space; but compared to the million people under its rule, pork is still in short supply.Every year when the soldiers and civilians in Beihai Town have the most oil and water in their stomachs, it is the month when the salmon migrate in autumn. The fish roe and the leftovers of pickled fish are made three times a day, and they are even stewed in a large pot directly by the river. Run to the rhythm of eating and vomiting.

Today, soldiers in the Beihai Navy have two major hobbies, watching operas and eating braised pork.

Needless to say, braised pork, just watch the show.Before each war, each regiment will put on a performance for the soldiers. The performances are "The White-haired Girl" and "Blood, Tears and Enmity" adapted by the cross-travelers, but the relevant content has been changed to the corrupt officials of the Qing Dynasty. Colluding with the landlords and oppressing the poor, he was forced to leave his home and his family was destroyed. Finally, with the rescue of the Beihai Navy, he lived a happy life.In addition, there is the Yangko opera "Brothers and Sisters Opening up Wasteland".

The veterans have watched these plays many times, and the recruits have also watched them once or twice.Although the plots in it seem very simple, and it can make people sniff at the modern times in another time and space, but no matter how many times you read it, it is as fresh as the first time.Often the actors on the stage sing the last line, and the people below immediately follow up with the next line.The actors occasionally played a little bit, changing the lines and actions a little, and the soldiers below were as happy as someone scratching their armpits.

These two hobbies are often used by the chief officers and instructors. When fighting and charging, the company commander usually raises his arms and shouts: "Come on! After the fight, go back and watch the big show and eat braised pork!" Every time the effect is good. Yes, quite comedic.

"I'm leaving, I'll look for you after we take down Fengtian Mansion."

Before Wang Cong'er could react, Xu Jian and the messenger left.Wang Cong'er had no choice but to raise her right hand and wave it at her husband's back. At this time, the sleeve fell down, revealing a shiny silver bracelet on her white wrist.

This bracelet was left to their brothers by Xu Jian's mother before she died. It was a personal accessory when they married Xu's family in Dongtai.After the Xu family was ransacked, all property was confiscated by the government, and the family was escorted to the capital to await trial. In the end, only this bracelet was left to hide close to the body.No matter how hard the journey of exile was, Xu Jian didn't even think about exchanging bracelets for clothes or some sorghum even though he was crying in Ninggu Pagoda for lack of food and clothing.In the winter of that year, in the middle of a cold wind howling night, Xu's mother, who was lying on the haystack and was dying, took out the bracelet from her arms, and told her to keep it with her, so that the two brothers would be safe.

It wasn't until he got engaged to Wang Cong'er that Xu Jian took the bracelet as a betrothal gift and told her the story behind it.Since then, Wang Cong'er has been wearing it and intends to keep it as a family heirloom of the Xu family.

Fast forward to mid-August.As Xiongyue, Gaiping, Niuzhuang and other places were conquered one after another, after several days of rest and completion of supplies, the naval forces of the Beihai Navy entered Xihaikou, south of Jinzhou, and took only one day. Get off the Tianqiao factory.The Qing army water battalion and fort defenders stationed here suffered heavy losses. As soon as the landing troops landed, the survivors ran away without a trace.

The next day, the [-]th Regiment, which took a short rest, launched an attack on Tashan Fort between Jinzhou and Ningyuan Prefecture.

In the Ming Dynasty, Tashan was the strategic location of the Liaoxi Corridor. 150 years ago, this place was still a densely populated military town. After the end of the Songjin War, a little-known tragic offensive and defensive battle took place.

At that time, the Ming Dynasty's defense system in Liaodong completely collapsed, and Tashan Fort, [-] miles north of Ningyuan Prefecture, was like a lone boat in the ocean, caught in the fierce offensive of the Qing army.Tong Hanbang, the Ming army guard of Tashan Fort at the time, after learning of Jinzhou's surrender, expressed his indignation and determination to the seven thousand Tashan soldiers and civilians: "Our soldiers suffered heavy casualties and food shortages, so we know that the dynasty is dead. I will not be humiliated." , must commit suicide first!"

However, his generous declaration received tears from the soldiers and civilians in the city.Why did the general leave me waiting?I am willing to fight to the end with the general.Although you must die, you will never surrender!

So No. 15 days after Zu Dashou surrendered, the army and civilians of Tashan, who had run out of ammunition and food, pretended to surrender and tricked the Qing army into the city.Tong Hanbang then ordered people to close the gate of the city, led the remnant army to fight to the death with the Qing army, and finally ignited the already buried explosives. In an instant, the landslide and the ground cracked, and the entire Tashan Fort was blown into ruins. The Qing army died together.

Compared with the Ming army who would rather die than submit 150 years ago, the Qing army today is far behind.At the end of the eighteenth century, Tashan was just a small village with dozens of families, plus an earthen castle. The guard was only a regular fifth-rank defense, and his men were full of less than 300 people.

Under the guidance of the drone, the six mortars of the artillery company of the 100th Regiment of the Beihai Navy specifically searched for the place where the Qing army gathered together, and after only one round, a white flag was displayed on the earthen wall of Tashan Fort.When the guard with the bandage on his head saw the chief of staff of the regiment, he knelt down and begged not to fire any more.With the few shells just now, more than [-] Qing troops were gone.

After taking down Tashan, the route for the Qing army in Liaodong to flee south was firmly blocked.Afterwards, the Beihai soldiers on the southern front left two battalions to defend Tashan, and the rest of the troops quickly went northward, recovering Lumuchong Fort, Daxing Fort, Xingshan Fort, and Jinchang Fort along the way, and finally occupied Jinchang Fort on August 8. Songshan Fort, eighteen miles south of the county, was marched to Jinxian County the next day.

Facing the drones and artillery of the Beihai Navy, the 400 Qing troops in Jin County were only a little bit stronger than Tashanbao.When the Yong'an Gate in the south and the Ningyuan Gate in the east were bombed and collapsed, the prefect of Jinzhou and the deputy capital of Jinzhou, who knew they were invincible, committed suicide one after another.The Manchus fought against the Northern Navy for so many years, knowing that the Northern Navy had no habit of killing prisoners, so more than [-] Eight Banners Manchurian soldiers who survived in the city surrendered in Kaesong under the leadership of a co-leader.

At this point, the Qing army outside the pass had no way out, and Zhao Xin's "close the door and beat the dog" plan entered the second stage.

The "Shengjing Battle" planned by Zhao Xin and Deng Fei was divided into three stages.In the first stage, the Northern Navy crossed the willow border by surprise and encircled Shengjing; in the second stage, the naval forces swept the towns along the Liaodong Peninsula, captured Tashan and even Jinzhou, and prevented the Qing army in Liaodong from fleeing south to Shanhaiguan; in the third stage, they occupied Fengtianfu, Xingjing Mansion forced the Qing troops in Haicheng, Liaoyang, Xiuyanting, and Phoenix City to surrender.

There are not many records about the Tashan defense battle in "History of the Qing Dynasty", only a few words. After all, it is too shameful to suffer a disastrous defeat just after the Songjin War.It was the Koreans who really recorded the offensive and defensive battle of Tashan. A few years later, Shen Ru (1610-1665), the deputy envoy of North Korea Xie Enxing and the right counselor, recorded the defense of Tashan in the Ming Dynasty in the preface of "Song of Tashan Castle" in "Yan Xinglu". .It said: "People and horses entered Yingcheng, but the artillery fire was rapid, and the embers were extinguished in the breath of breath, and the whole city was wiped out, and the leftovers were scornful." After that, in the eighth year of Shunzhi, Li Linping, the king of North Korea, went to Beijing as an envoy. , facing the ruins after the war when passing through Tashan, wrote a poem "Nostalgia of Tashan": "Eternal shocking things here, the whole city was slaughtered without leaving a trace. Why should a man die without hatred? It is a famous bamboo book."
