East Factory Governor

Chapter 127 Broken

After a while, there was a thunderous shout of killing in Manchu from outside Da'an's mouth, and countless torches instantly rose from the night, merged into a fire dragon, and entered directly through the water gate.

The three thousand left-wing troops of the Later Jin Dynasty, together with the one thousand Mongolian troops that had surrendered, rushed into the Da'an Pass with overwhelming momentum.Following them, there were three or four thousand coat slaves accompanying the army, who were specially responsible for guarding and transporting the looted property.

Yue Tuo, the commander of the Left Wing Army, stood outside the city, looking triumphantly at the scene where the flames in Da'an mouth shot up to the sky.

"Ji'erhalang, you see, within half an hour, we have entered Da'ankou, and the Ming army is really vulnerable!"

Jierhalang smiled faintly, and said, "Does Yue Beile have to thank those Han Chinese beggars? If they didn't open the water gate, I'm afraid it will take a while."

Yue Tuo smiled contemptuously and said, "These Han traitors are like vultures on the prairie. As long as you can reward them with a few pieces of meat that are about to stink, they will help you peck people wholeheartedly. Why don't you say thank you? Yes. Moreover, there are plenty of Han people like this, and without them we can still find others to replace them.”

Ji Erhalang said, "There are indeed many Han people who are like vultures, but there are also many Han people who are untamable like wild wolves."

Yue Tuo smiled even more disdainfully, "Then we will kill them all. As long as the leading wild wolves die, the rest will become docile domestic dogs! Let's go, Jierhalangbeile, maybe we I can also catch a few wolf cubs to taste. Well, I hope there are more, haha."

In the dark night, the beacon tower ignited a fire, which was more powerful than the beacon fire used during the day, and it was extraordinarily dazzling.This is the only thing that the remaining Ming army can do.

After the post-golden left-wing army broke through Da'ankou, it quickly launched a bloody massacre.Da'ankou was not big, and there were a total of more than 300 defenders. They were almost slaughtered in less than half an hour, and only a dozen old and weak soldiers were left behind.

After Yue Tuo heard the news, he ordered people to take these twenty or so old and weak soldiers to the top of the city, and then raised the red flag he was holding on the top of the city, expressing that he would sacrifice the heads of these two dozen people to commemorate the victory in the first battle .

Hearing this, Jierhalang stepped forward to persuade him, "Yuebeile, the Khan has an order before sending out troops. This crusade against Baoming needs to spread the virtues of Dajin along the way, and treat surrendered soldiers and obedient people well."

In the previous Nurhachi period, Hou Jin implemented an extremely brutal policy of oppression against the Han people in Liaodong.For example, he moved a large number of Jurchens to this place, calling it co-existence with the Han people, but he changed his mind after a while and listed all the Han people as Aha, that is, slaves, and all Han people’s houses and land, including their wives and children, were all Jurchens. All, the Jurchens have the right to dispose of it at will, which instantly intensified the conflict and aroused fierce resistance from the Han people.In order to suppress the resistance of the Han people, Nurhachi carried out several inhuman massacres, and the reasons for the massacres became more random each time.For example, in the ninth year of Mandate of Heaven, Nurhaci actually ordered the massacre of "people without grain".Under such incomprehensible "divine logic" one by one, the Han people were almost slaughtered.

This cruel and ignorant extermination policy directly led to the increasing hatred of the Han people towards Hou Jin.One of the important reasons why Yuan Chonghuan's Liaodong defense line is impenetrable is that it has absorbed a large number of Liao people. These Liao people have blood feuds with Houjin, so they are not like the Ming army in other places. Strength and will.With such soldiers, coupled with the strong cities and clear fields everywhere in Liaodong, it would be difficult for Yuan Chonghuan to not be able to defend Liaodong. As a result, Huang Taiji had to avoid Liaodong and bypass Mongolia to enter the Central Plains.

In addition, the massacre of Han people also caused a shortage of labor and talents in Houjin, making it impossible to achieve further development.Houjin itself was a nomadic people, and relied on the Han people for economy and technology for a long time. After the war with the Ming Dynasty, the border trade was hit hard. Originally, he could still use the Han people in Liaodong, but the Han people in Liaodong were almost killed by him, so Houjin quickly The economy and technology have stagnated, and with the continuous expansion of Houjin's territory and ambitions, this drawback has become more and more apparent, which eventually caused Houjin's economic difficulties, severe shortages of commodities and food, and forced him to break into the Great Wall. Extorted money and food from the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, having learned the lesson of Nurhachi, Huang Taiji also began to try to restrain his subordinates.However, in the eyes of the later Jin people, this kind of order is dispensable at all.Because he also added a sentence in the order, that is, "what you get must be turned over" and so on. Isn't it clear that it is still a robbery?

Yue Tuo showed great sarcasm at Jierhalang's words, and said, "Jierhalang, don't you want to learn what Ming people say about benevolence and righteousness? Haha, that's just an excuse for cowards to beg for mercy!"

Ji Erhalang shook his head helplessly, knowing that Yue Tuo was a stubborn person, and as his deputy, he could not change his mind, so he didn't say any more.

Yue Tuo waved his hand and watched with a smile as more than thirty heads fell to the ground.As if it wasn't enough fun, he shouted to everyone, "Warriors, hurry up and find out if there are any Han Chinese left. Today we will use blood to make our red flag redder!"

But at this time, only the sentinel came to report that the Malan camp of the Ming army from the west had come to help.

Yue Tuo became very excited, stretched out his big hand, and said, "Bring the weapon!"

Two strong men brought a weapon over, but it turned out to be a big mace, more than two meters long, with a head diameter of about forty centimeters, made of pure iron, and it seemed to weigh two hundred catties, held in his hand Light as a stick.

Holding a mace, Yue Tuo rode on a group of strong horses and led more than a hundred cavalrymen to kill the enemy troops in the Malan camp.

The remaining soldiers and horses inlaid with the red flag saw that the coach had actually entered the battle in person, and hurriedly followed.

The Malan Battalion was led by General Liu Bufang, with a total of [-] horse infantry.Liu Bufang is a mighty general. He has been in the army for more than ten years, and he has been promoted from a small soldier to a general by virtue of his military achievements.Not only is he able to lead troops well, but also his personal cultivation is not low, and now he is at the fifth-class level of Xuantong Realm.

Coincidentally, Liu Bufang also used a mace, but the model was a circle smaller than Yuetuo's.

When he was less than a mile away from Da'ankou, Liu Bufang felt something was wrong when he saw the city tower ablaze, and thought that Da'ankou might have been captured.The number of enemies was unknown, and if he rushed over, he would probably suffer a big loss, so he quickly reined in his horse and wanted the troops to return where they were.

But at this moment, a group of cavalry suddenly rushed in front of them, threatening to kill them.

With his seasoned experience, he knew very well that if the army were to turn around and retreat at this time, it would be tantamount to seeking death.When meeting on a narrow road, the brave wins, so he shouted, "Attack!"

The [-] Ming troops responded loudly, "Kill!"

Liu Bufang took the lead and charged at the enemy with a thick and big mace.

But he saw that a burly man also came out of the opponent's formation, with a pigtail like a mouse's tail on the back of his head, and he used the same mace in his hand, but it was one size bigger than his own.

Knowing that the opponent was difficult to deal with, Liu Bufang still gritted her teeth and roared again, "Kill!"

The two horses and the two maces met in an instant, and at the moment when they were separated, there was only a "dang" sound, and Liu Bufang immediately flew off the horse like a kite with a broken string, and fell to the ground.

"Pfft", Liu Bufang spat out a mouthful of blood, and Liu Bufang looked at the other party in disbelief, the Jiannu leader in his early thirties.

Yue Tuo exerted his legs lightly, jumped up in an instant, let the horse charge into the formation of the Ming army, and he himself came to the sky above Liu Bufang, raised his mace and hammered down hard.

The mace pierced through the air, emitting a burst of scorching flames.

"boom!"

Liu Bufang's head instantly shattered into countless fragments.

"boom!"

His body bounced around!

"boom!"

……

Regardless of the Ming army or the later Jin army, all of them felt awe-inspiring and trembling!
The Ming army saw that its general was killed in such an easy and tragic way, and the army was in a panic.

After more than 1000, the Jin army rushed up and surrounded the Ming army in the Malan camp.Afterwards, more Houjin troops rushed over...

In the early morning of October 27th, the second year of Chongzhen.Da'ankou was breached, and more than [-] reinforcements from the Malan camp were wiped out.

Houjin's iron cavalry finally stepped into the land of the Central Plains as it wished.
