The Red House starts from Liaodong

The atmosphere in Shenyang City was oppressive.

After all, there are more than [-] troops outside the city. Although they have not yet begun to attack the city, they have been deployed in an orderly manner.

The tighter the arrangement, the fiercer the offensive will be.

Because the opponent is Jin Jiangjun.

Therefore, innumerable supplies have been accumulated in Shenyang City to supply more than [-] soldiers and civilians, enough to last for half a year.

In fact, as long as you stick to it for three months, you can win.

Because the winter in Shenyang is very cold, staying outside the house for a long time, the tent alone cannot stop the severe cold.

There will be a lot of frostbite, and even freeze to death.

This kind of battle damage outside the battlefield, no army can bear it.

Although the supplies are sufficient, it does not mean that they can be fully supplied.

For at least one kind of person, life is getting harder and harder.

Bai Yangcui received the rations for three days and took them home. The whole family looked at the cloth bag in Bai Yangcui's hands with disappointed expressions.

"Master, this is only enough for one day."

Bai Yangcui's wife showed worried eyes.

If you just persist for a period of time, then the whole family can bear it if they are hungry, even if they don’t know how long it will last.

"First of all, the family members have dispersed, we can't even take care of ourselves, let them find a way to go."

In the current situation, such a move will undoubtedly lead the servants in the family to a dead end.

But there are three sons in the family, five grandchildren, three daughters-in-law, plus the old couple, Bai Yangcui's wife did not stop him.

A dozen or so of them will be hungry, and there is no food to feed their children.

"I'll go to Jiala Erzhen's house and ask Hutabu for a prayer."

Bai Yangcui said with a lack of confidence.

Light throttling is not enough, open source is also needed.

After he surrendered to the barbarians, he was included in the Xiangbai Banner under the flag of Jialaerzhenhutabu.

Shenyang was besieged.

The salaries of their Han officials have long since stopped, and they receive a small amount of fixed rations, which is enough to support themselves, but it is difficult to support their families.

So he could only go to the banner owner to borrow food.

After explaining to his wife, Bai Yangcui left the house and walked towards Jiala Ezhen's house, meeting a colleague on the way.

When the two saw each other, they both guessed the other's intentions.

With a competitor, will it affect my borrowing money?With such thoughts in mind, after the two greeted each other, they walked silently with their heads down.

The old slave occupied Shenyang and made his capital in Shenyang.

According to the residential area demarcated by the Eight Banners, the city center where the Dazheng Hall is located was built, with Zhenghong on the east side and the red flag inlaid for living.

The north side is Zhenghuang, where Xianghuang Banner lives, the south side belongs to Zhenglan, where Xianglan Banner lives, and the west side belongs to Zhengbai Banner, where Xiangbai Banner lives.

"Can you hold it?"

The colleague asked in a low voice.

Bai Yangcui raised his head in horror, and quickly looked around. He was relieved when he saw that the soldiers patrolling the street were far away.

Looking intently at his colleague, compared to before, his colleague's face has a look of hunger.

Subconsciously touched his tiger whiskers, and also touched a layer of skin, he must be like this in the eyes of others.

"Whether we can hold it or not, we can only hope that we can hold it."

Bai Yangcui said in a low voice.

He had betrayed others in exchange for his family's livelihood, and made great contributions to the barbarians. If he couldn't keep it, his family would definitely be found by the Jinjiang army.

speak up.

Marquis Ping Liao of the Jinjiang Army still has friendship with him. He was in the army and took care of Marquis Ping Liao back then.

pity.

Good luck tricks people, he can't resist the weather, he can only helplessly walk towards a dead end step by step.

The colleague nodded.

With Bai Yangcui's informant, the barbarians uncovered Chen Ce, the former secretary of the Liaodong capital, and slaughtered Chen Ce's family, even the young children.

If the city of Shenyang is destroyed, Bai Yangcui's family will definitely not have a good result.

In fact, why not myself.

The barbarians fell into decline.

Not many people are needed.

Hundreds of Han Confucians were recruited at the beginning of the course, and now the useless Han officials have long been reduced to slaves again. They are Han officials who can still receive salaries and rations, and they must have made great contributions.

"I hope I can keep it."

The colleague sighed.

Bai Yangcui looked numb.

The two came to the banner owner's house, but the banner owner was not there, so they went to the Dazheng Hall. The banner owner's son came forward and informed that there was no extra food.

Bai Yangcui and his colleagues pleaded bitterly.

The banner owner's son looked indifferent.

"Just make sure you don't starve to death, and it doesn't matter if your family members starve to death. After the difficulties are over, the Jin Jiang army will retreat.

Let's continue the string again, I'm afraid you won't be able to pick a daughter-in-law. "

In the eyes of the banner owner's son, Bai Yangcui and others are also slaves, but they are more important slaves. Their families are now a burden, not worth wasting precious food.

Although most of the 500 million Han Chinese had fled, there were still more than [-] Han Chinese left in the hands of the barbarians.

When the time comes, show mercy and reward a few of their wives, and the matter will be exposed.

Bai Yangcui smiled wryly.

As soon as he is old, even if he marries a new wife, can he still have an offspring?
No matter how the two begged, the banner owner's son never let go.

Dazheng Hall.

Sahalian, Wakda, Dudu, Azig, Dege, Hutabu, Agu, Changkuchangan.

All Baylor, the barbarians gather here.

There are also Li Yongfang, Fan Wencheng, Ning Wan and several other Han officials.

The hundreds of Han Confucians who were recruited at the beginning have not yet warmed up to official positions, and most of them have returned to their original status.

An important Han official like Bai Yangcui still retained his position and was given a small ration, so Li Yongfang and others were not affected much.

At least to feed the family.

After Hutabu introduced the fortifications in the city, the hall fell into silence.

"I have already sent someone to contact King Zhongshun, ready to surrender to Da Zhou."

Huang Taiji finally informed everyone.

Before Benxi, Hupi Station and other places were lost, Huangtaiji adopted Fan Wencheng's idea and sent someone to contact King Zhongshun.

But the battle was undecided. In order to avoid affecting the morale of the army and gaining opposition, Huang Taiji kept it a secret from everyone.

Everyone was surprised when they heard the news for the first time.

But that's it.

King Zhongshun became the hope instead.

Returning to the Great Zhou, the barbarians still have a chance and can still stand on their own.However, they would not get much benefit from the Jin Jiang Army's toughness.

Stick to Shenyang City.

Everyone has confidence.

But even if you keep it, what about the coming year?
Jin Jiang's army attacked rapidly and heavily deployed, and the entire army was wiped out in less than a month, and everyone lacked confidence.

Seeing the expressions of the crowd, Huang Taiji felt sad in his heart.

Very contradictory heart.

He neither wanted everyone to oppose his idea of ​​submitting to Da Zhou, nor did he want everyone to have no objection.

The cities and fortresses all over the front line fell in less than a month, which inevitably affected everyone's confidence.

At least.

No one dared to continue boasting.

"How does King Zhongshun respond?"

Hutabu stepped forward to inquire.

"Fan Wencheng, you explain."

Huang Taiji looked at Fan Wencheng, and Fan Wencheng stepped forward immediately.

Seeing Fan Wencheng, many people felt a little embarrassed to meet because of Mang Gurtai's previous actions.

Only Fan Wencheng seemed to be fine.

"King Zhongshun agreed to our surrender, but there is too little time to discuss many things in detail, but King Zhongshun is willing to urge the Jinjiang army to retreat.

This is to our advantage. "

Fan Wencheng said calmly.

When it comes to people's calmness after the siege of Shenyang, he is indeed No.1 among Han officials.

The detailed explanation is over.

Fan Wencheng showed confidence.

"If the Jinjiang army clashes with King Zhongshun at the Daliao River, it will be the most favorable situation for us.

Second.

The Jinjiang army did not conflict with King Zhongshun, and under the supervision of King Zhongshun, they chose to retreat, which is also a favorable situation for us.

Last time.

King Zhongshun failed to make the Jinjiang army retreat, so we only need to hold on until it snows, until the Jinjiang army retreats.

Then hurry up and negotiate with King Zhongshun on the matter of obedience, finalize everything with the Great Zhou court, and raise the banner of the Great Zhou.

Then the Jin Jiang army will not be able to attack us.

If he attacks us, it is a rebellion, then King Zhongshun has a reason to unite us to deal with the Jinjiang army.

Our military strength, together with King Zhongshun's military strength, and reinforcements from Da Zhou, might be able to counterattack Jinjiang Town.

No matter what the situation.

It's all good for us. "

Fan Wencheng's voice echoed very loudly in the hall.

Fan Wencheng couldn't feel the strange eyes that everyone looked at him, but Fan Wencheng felt that what he said just now was the best counterattack.

Hutabu patted Fan Wencheng on the shoulder.

"You are good, no wonder the Great Khan values ​​you."

Hearing Hutabu's words, Fan Wencheng was a little moved, and his eyes watered up. Finally, someone could understand the grievances he suffered from Mangurtai.

Everyone's expressions relaxed.

at least.

Guarding the city of Yangcheng, and sticking to it until it snows, everyone still has confidence.

The layers of fortifications arranged are enough for Jin Jiangjun to drink a pot.

The stiff atmosphere in the hall was swept away, and everyone gained confidence. Huang Taiji also smiled, with expectations in his eyes.

"King Zhongshun is a good man with a big picture. He knows that the Jinjiang army cannot be allowed to dominate Liaodong. With his support, our country will definitely rise again."

"Khan wise."

Everyone said.

Huang Taiji smiled.

Regardless of criticism, I caught Mang Gurtai's mistake, drove him out of the city, and sent him to Tiger Skin Station, which made many people feel dissatisfied.

There are disadvantages as well as advantages.

For example, now, with the good news, there is no other force in Shenyang City that can counter him, and he can drive people even more like his arm.

"Boom."

outside the city.

Suddenly there was cannon fire.

There was only one round of cannon fire, and then stopped.

a long time.

Those who listened intently, seeing that there was no movement for a long time, were just about to continue the discussion.

"Boom."

……

The second round of gunfire sounded again, louder and more numerous than the first round.

It rang again.

The sound of gunfire never stopped.

"The Jinjiang army has attacked the city."

Hutabu frowned, and immediately made a judgment.

~~~~~~
Shanhaiguan.

"You don't understand."

Zuo Qin wanted to evade, but he didn't dare to offend King Zhongshun. Facing the tough Tumen, he finally evaded and failed.

Among the defenders stationed at Shanhaiguan.

There were more than [-] white soldiers transferred from Sichuan and recruits from Zhejiang. Zuo Qin agreed to transfer them to King Zhongshun.

The guerrilla generals Ma Zhongzhou and Shichun came to ask the general soldier why they were suddenly called out.

At the beginning, the barbarians were powerful and Beizhen was besieged. They asked Shanhaiguan for help many times, but Shanhaiguan did not send out any soldiers.

The two of them didn't understand why the general soldier gave in so easily this time.

Shanhaiguan is no other place, and there is Gyeonggi behind them. As the generals of the imperial court, the two of them should figure out the situation.

Zuo Qin carefully explained to the two of them.

"Before the emperor took charge of the government, he was escorted by King Zhongshun, but now the emperor is in charge of the government, in terms of credit, no one can match him.

King Zhongshun was appointed by the emperor, and he was in charge of the overall situation in western Liaoning.

In public and in private, I can't resist him.

Although it is somewhat inconsistent with the system, but with the prestige of King Zhongshun, the court will not blame him, but King Zhongshun wants to deal with me, but I can only catch him without a fight, so I agreed to his request.

After the two of you lead your troops to Jinzhou, you must obey his orders honestly, otherwise no one will be able to protect you. "

The last sentence.

Zuo Qin looked at Ma Zhongzhou.

Ma Zhongzhou's father was Ma Fang, the envoy of Shizhu Xuanfu.

When the Supreme Emperor was in power.

First, there was a rebellion by the rebels in Bozhou until the Battle of Sarhu.

Ma Fang, the Xuanfu envoy of Shizhu, either personally or appointed white soldiers, fought for the imperial court continuously for decades and made great military exploits.

Similarly, Sichuan soldiers also suffered huge casualties.

Seeing this, the imperial court trusted Ma Fang more and more, and gave him more rewards. At the same time, he transferred thousands of white soldiers to garrison Shanhaiguan.

The entire Shanhaiguan garrison comes from troops trusted by the imperial court.

Ma Zhongzhou, like his father, was brave in battle, but had a hot temper, so Zuo Qin specially reminded Ma Zhongzhou.

Ma Zhongzhou shook his head and said puzzledly.

"As long as King Zhongshun doesn't violate court rules, why should I offend him?"

Zuo Qin glanced at Ma Zhongzhou, the corner of his mouth twitched, and finally held back.

In the face of emergencies, ordinary officials must first obtain the permission of the court, and must be conservative before receiving a reply from above.

Don't dare to act rashly, so as not to take responsibility afterwards.

But King Zhongshun was different.

For example, this time, in order not to miss the opportunity, King Zhongshun did various actions without getting the inspection, thinking about the follow-up procedures.

King Zhongshun is willing to take responsibility and is not afraid of being held accountable afterwards, because he has the confidence, but others do not.

Ma Zhongzhou just said that as long as King Zhongshun follows the rules, according to Zuo Qin's thinking, King Zhongshun may not necessarily abide by the rules when necessary.

But Zuo Qin didn't want to explain this to Ma Zhongzhou.

He was worried that if Ma Zhongzhou didn't say anything, if it reached King Zhongshun's ears, it would cause the other party's misunderstanding.

The two had no doubts, went back to lead the ministries, left Piancheng, and rushed to Jinzhou.

Not only Shanhaiguan sent troops.

The ecological environment outside the Great Wall in Western Liaoning, the closer the tribes to the Great Wall, the closer they are to the Great Zhou, such as the Gongtu tribe.

But these tribes are all small, or of medium strength, such as the Gongtu tribe, which is already the strongest of these tribes.

These tribes were most deeply influenced by the Great Zhou, and are called Shubu in official documents.

Then there are the grassland tribes under the orders of Khalkha, or Zun Khalkha's major ministries.

The tribes on the prairie are still waiting for the leaders to express their views, while the warriors from the nearby familiar tribes have already arrived in Jinzhou.

There are 7000 people in Shanhaiguan, 4 people in the Jinzhou Army, and five or six thousand horses from the grassland warriors, totaling more than [-] people.

Although King Zhongshun trusted the city of Shenyang and was still guarded by barbarians, the Jinjiang army was so famous that it made people unable to calm down.

In order to avoid nights and dreams, King Zhongshun decided not to wait any longer, leaving a part of the defenders behind, and the rest went to Beizhen.

His idea was simple.

He is King Zhongshun, and he has six times as many soldiers as Li Changsong, and the walls of Beizhen have not been completely repaired.

Let the Jinzhou Army enter the city and take over the Beizhen Army.

Dare to take such a tough attitude, because no one believed that Li Changsong dared to use a knife and gun, and a bloody conflict broke out.

As long as he takes over the Beizhen Army, King Zhongshun is confident that no one will dare to disobey his orders because of his status.

At last.

Even if Li Changsong went to the court to impeach him, he would not be afraid.

In name, he led the army to assist Jin Jiang's army. Who can say that he was wrong?Moreover, Li Changsong abandoned Xining Fort, so he had reason to blame him.

This small lawsuit is not in the eyes of King Zhongshun.

Countless.

After arriving in Beizhen, they discovered that there were also Mongolian soldiers in the opponent's army.

Although there were less than ten thousand Mongolian soldiers, King Zhongshun did not dare to act rashly.

It's not fear, but worry that actually causes conflict.

The Mongolian Army is not the Beizhen Army.

Can't be compared.

Tumen and Cheng Zhixin had a dispute.

Tumen believed that tough measures should be adopted. Li Changsong did not dare to have a real military conflict because there were many soldiers on his side, but it was just a gesture.

Cheng Zhixin objected.

"It's just the Beizhen army, the situation is indeed easy to control, and the generals of both sides dare not mess around, but it is different if there is a Mongolian army in the city.

If there is a conflict between the two sides when entering the city, the generals of the Mongolian army are not familiar enough with us, and it will easily expand and even turn into a war. "

"If this is the case, the chief culprit is Li Jiedu. I don't think he would dare to take such a risk."

Tumen looked at King Zhongshun.

That's the bet.

Bet on whether Li Changsong is a person who knows the severity.

Tumen wanted to bet on King Zhongshun, because he was eager for revenge, and it was predicted that Li Changsong would not dare to mess around.

But King Zhongshun was different.

A conflict with the Mongolian army would be beyond his control.

Instead, Western Liaoning will fall into chaos.

city ​​wall.

Li Changsong didn't show up, but looked at the Jinzhou army outside the city, his eyes drifted, his mouth was dry, and he felt uneasy.

He bet on his back road.

Please ask Horqin's Mongolian army to guard the weak part of the city wall and prevent the Jinzhou army from entering the city.

If King Zhongshun does not back down.

The two sides really had a bloody conflict, and even triggered a war.

If King Zhongshun's fate is not mentioned, he must have no good results.

and so.

He stared closely at the Jinzhou Army, waiting to see what the Jinzhou Army would do next.

Fortunately.

He's young, intense, and makes impulsive decisions.But King Zhongshun was different. Although he acted boldly, he was actually careful.

It is such a character.

King Zhongshun dared not to give up the development of power under the suppression of the Supreme Emperor, and could not cause the Supreme Emperor to take tough measures.

That is, struggle and control the heat.

The Jinzhou Army can take over the Beizhen Army, but it cannot cause conflicts, which will lead to the division of western Liaoning.

About it.

In the end, the means must be used in the court.

"Li Changsong."

King Zhongshun looked towards the gate tower with disappointed eyes.

Li Changsong wanted to restore the lintel, which caused some disputes between the two sides, but King Zhongshun did not develop any hostility.

But this time Li Changsong's actions made King Zhongshun completely give up on Li Changsong.

north town.

Be sure to take it back.

He decided to tell the emperor that there should not be two centers in western Liaoning.

Jinxianghou Mansion.

Don't think about coming to Northtown.

~~~~~~
The tent where the general summoned officials and generals to discuss matters was set up very large, so a huge tree trunk as thick as one's arms was laid in the middle.

In order to firmly support such a large tent.

The battle is raging outside.

Tang Qing'an is also too busy here, often until midnight, and rushes over after a good night's sleep.

It was already night when Jia Jian came back from the grassland.

Tang Qing'an sat on a top chair with his feet stretched out onto the low stool. Xie Youcheng and the others were all there, and everyone was exhausted.

Xie Youcheng used to have a somewhat elegant appearance, but now his face is rough and wild, and he is a completely different person from before.

"After Auba sent troops, King Zhongshun chose to retreat."

this is a good news.

in the account.

Everyone showed gratified smiles.

Shenyang is a strong city with a deep moat and dense fortifications outside the city walls.

The Jinjiang army has many artillery pieces, but it also requires soldiers to step forward and fill up the moat.

Repeated battles.

The Jinjiang army captured a lot of people.

Strictly selected.

Many murderers who participated in the massacre, or had the blood of innocent people in their hands, were all investigated.

If you want to survive, you have to make meritorious deeds.

Set up enough capital to survive.

The important task of helping the Jinjiang army fill up the moat on the battlefield was handed over to tens of thousands of "butchers" who were selected.

However, tens of thousands of people have no military spirit and move slowly.

Despite repeated urging, the moat has just been filled.

Less than one in ten of the tens of thousands of people survived in the end.

The cruelty of the battlefield can be seen.

Jia Jian brought good news, so that everyone was no longer worried about food, and it was the first time in these days that everyone smiled.

soon.

After discussing everything, Tang Qing'an left Jia Jian behind.

He saw Jia Jian's hesitant to speak just now, and knew that Jia Jian had other things to say.

"Korqin is a little unstable."

"what happened?"

Tang Qing'an was puzzled.

The current situation of the barbarians, is there anyone in Horqin who can't understand clearly, and is ready to send troops to help the barbarians?

Jia Jian quickly explained.

"Because of the weakness of the barbarians, many Taiwan Gibbons do not support Obama's self-reliance, and now there is no suppression.

Obama informed that these Taiji secretly contacted the tribes of Khalkha, and even contacted Lindan Khan in Chahar. "

"What does Obama mean?"

"Batulu Khan wants to gain our support to stabilize the internal situation, so this time he easily agreed to send troops to assist Beizhen."

"I see."

Tang Qing'an laughed.

He knew a little about the grassland tribes, and he had read a lot of historical materials of the grassland tribes before traveling, including the changes of various tribes.

Therefore, although I felt the sudden change in Horqin, I didn't have too many surprises, but I quickly thought it through.

After all, the situation is different.

At the beginning, the barbarians were so powerful that even Khalkha, which was farther away, was overwhelmed, not to mention Horqin beside him.

The original leader of Horqin, Ming'an, passed away, and the new leader, Oba, was forced by the barbarians to stand on his own as Khan.

Many Taiji internally did not support it, but at that time the barbarians were so powerful that no one dared to show their opposition.

Now that there is no barbarian oppression, internal discord naturally arises.

There are pros and cons to everything.

So what measures will Jinjiang Town take against an internally unstable Horqin?

"Focus on the war first."

Tang Qing'an suppressed his thoughts and told Jia Jian.

All the actions of the barbarians were based on the fact that they stood firm until the Jinjiang army retreated.

Then.

Can Shenyang City be taken within three months?

That decides everything.

Success.

Tang Qing'an had enough energy to deal with the Satsuma Army of the Ryukyu Kingdom.

He has received a message from Zhou Gou'er.

The Satsuma clan noticed the changes in the Ryukyu Kingdom and sent more samurai to the Ryukyu Kingdom.

If Shenyang is not captured this year.

There will be more variables next year. According to the inferences of Xie Youcheng and others, the changes in the situation may be unfavorable to Jinjiang Town.

Jinjiang Town is caught in the pull of the Liaodong situation, and he will have no spare power to intervene in the Ryukyu Kingdom.
