Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 213 Three Attacks on Changli (Second Update)

Huang Taiji reused the Han officials who surrendered, mainly to solve the shortage of Dajin talents and to show the rest of the Ming officials.

He appointed a large number of demoted generals and officials of Ming Dynasty, especially officials dismissed by Ming Dynasty.

Promote Bai Yangcui, a demobilized soldier in Yongping City, to governor, and manage the surrendered people in the place where Yongping belongs.

Meng Qiaofang and Yang Wenkui, who had been dismissed from their posts, were appointed as deputy generals, commanding 400 Bencheng soldiers, and giving them horses, armor, bows and arrows.

Not only that, Huang Taiji also gave Bai Yangcui the black fox fur he was wearing, and personally summoned Meng Qiaofang and Yang Wenkui to have dinner together.

These people are grateful to Huang Taiji, show their loyalty, and want to do their best for Dajin until they die.

In short, it was the ministers who talked happily, and at the same time scolded Emperor Chongzhen for being blind and incapable of knowing people.

Huang Taiji thought secretly, how long has it been? Emperor Chongzhen still did not agree to negotiate a peace, and then he sent 7000 people to attack Changli.

On the day when Hou Jin attacked Yongping, Zuo Yingxuan, the magistrate of Changli County, had just taken office for the first day.

When he learned that the Tartars had attacked Yongping, he not only didn't panic, but went to the city to look around and observe carefully.

Then he ordered the people in the city not to panic, and while closing the gates of the city, they collected the defeated soldiers, recruited the strong men, and began to train the militia.

Then order the National People's Congress to practice gunpowder, pack the gunpowder and put it on the city wall, and keep the rolling stones and wood as spares.

In the end, Zuo Yingxuan came to a general swearing-in meeting, stayed with Changli City, and waited for the arrival of reinforcements.

Huang Taiji's 7000 troops arrived in front of the Guandi Temple in the southeast of Changli County, led by Huang Taiji.

They all got off their horses and bowed respectfully to Guan Yu.

Both the generals of the Tartars and the surrendered Han Chinese all hoped that Emperor Guan would bless them. As for the statue of Yue Fei on the side, he was overthrown by the Tartars.

Yue Fei did not miss out on big gold, and now the Tartars outside the customs are called big gold.

Emperor Hongwu chose Yue Fei to be the companion of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin. At the end of the Han Dynasty, only Zhuge Liang was selected to be the companion of the imperial temples of the past dynasties. Guan Yu was never selected.

The official status of the two of them in Daming is comparable.

However, with the widespread spread of Buddhism and Taoism among the people, Guan Temples are spread all over the country, and the incense is higher than that of Confucian Temples, which are officially advocated for sacrifices.

During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Guan Yu and Yue Fei were conferred the titles of emperors and juxtaposed with each other, and temples were built to worship together, and the title of Emperor Guan and Yue Fei began to spread among the people.

Because of Nurhachi's operation under his grandfather and father, he worked as an errand runner under Li Chengliang, pouring toilets and burning fire pits.

At the same time, he also accepts advanced military education, and loves watching Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and Huang Taiji selected Romance of the Three Kingdoms as the designated military teaching material.

Influenced by the book, the Tartars worshiped Guan Yu as their patron saint of war and called him Guan Mafa. (Manchu: "Grandpa Guan")
Every time before the Eight Banners soldiers sent troops, they would burn incense and pray for Guan Yu's protection, so that they could annex more of the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the robbery could return smoothly.

Because Yue Fei fought against Jin, the Qing Dynasty removed Yue Fei from the Wu Temple and was not allowed to worship with Guan Yu.

Instead, he greatly appreciated Guan Yu's loyalty, continued to add titles, and continued to elevate Guan Yu and suppress Yue Fei.

Even the Qing court spread the legend that "Liu Bei was reincarnated as Emperor Kangxi, and Guan Yu was reincarnated as a god, escorting the Manchu emperor".

Yue Fei was belittled by the Manchu officials, and Guan Yu was molded by the Manchus as the only martial sage.

It was all for the purpose of stabilizing Manchu's own rule and making the people forget the fact that someone had bravely resisted Dajin.

And many Han people also took advantage of the practice that the Qing Dynasty only allowed worship to Guan Yu, and secretly formed associations in the Guandi Temple. Under the witness of Guan Yu, the brothers came together to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.

As a result, Guan Yu became a symbol of loyalty among the people.

In any case, Guan Erye has been dead for a thousand years, but for their own effective rule, they all hope that Guan Yu can stand by them.

After paying homage to Second Master Guan, Chen Junmin and Wang Jinyu, members of Yongping who surrendered to Houjin, immediately felt that Second Master Guan's loyalty filled their hearts.

They bravely led more than a dozen horsemen, holding yellow flags, to the city of Changli to surrender.

The magistrate Zuo Yingxuan angrily scolded the two for forgetting their ancestors, reading sages' books in vain, traitors and scum, and categorically refused to surrender.

The two who scolded had no power to fight back, their veins swelled, their faces were flushed, and they were ashamed. They wanted to help Dajin break through Changli County and capture Zuo Yingxuan, the county magistrate.

As long as all those who call them traitors are killed, no one will call them traitors anymore.

The two students just passed the lowest examination in the Ming Dynasty, but Zuo Yingxuan was a Jinshi, and their educational level was much lower than theirs.

The two fled back in a panic, telling Zuo Yingxuan that he didn't know the general idea, and they should attack the city quickly.

Huang Taiji looked around Changli and saw that the defense was heavily guarded, and he was unwilling to be attacked by the Eight Banners, so he sent Aohan, Naiman, Balin, and Zalut to lead the Mongolian soldiers to attack with dozens of ladders.

At the same time, use artillery and rockets to cover assists underneath.

As a result, he was defeated by the Ming army led by Zuo Yingxuan (broken soldiers and militiamen who had just been recruited and trained).

Huang Taiji suddenly became angry. He thought that Changli County was within reach, but he hit a wall.

He immediately ordered the Manchu ministers Dalha and Kake Duli to lead thousands of people to attack the city day and night, vowing to take Changli County.

As a result, the second siege was still defeated.

The next day, Huang Taiji rode a horse to encourage the soldiers in front of the battle, and delivered a speech before the battle:
"Shotgun artillery, firing from a distance, our eyes can't see, it is very difficult to avoid.

But the arrows, which can be seen with the eyes, we can all dodge, so I will let the artillery cover you. "

No matter how many people understood what Huang Taiji meant, he immediately ordered the four right-wing banners to attack the south of Changli City, the left-wing four banners to attack the east of the city, and Ao Han and other Mongols to attack the north of the city.

Surrounded by three missing one.

Huang Taiji watched his own soldiers approaching the city carrying ladders. When the Eight Banners soldiers were about to climb the ladders to seize the city, stones rolled down the city, and artillery and shotguns were fired.

There is also a thunderbolt thrown down, causing an explosion.

There were many casualties, and even the ladder was burned and broken by the fire.

The third attack failed.

Huang Taiji flicked the whip angrily, not being too hard, but continuing to be soft.

He sent Li Yingying and others to persuade him to surrender, but Zuo Yingxuan lured him into the city, slaughtered him, and spread his head all over the city for public display.

At this time, Huang Taiji received another bad thing.

He dispatched two Niulu in Tongzhou, a total of 600 people, and more than 400 people were shot to death.

What surprised Huang Taiji the most was that there were only twelve cavalry who killed one of his cattle.

If it weren't for the fact that the Tongzhou Twelve Cavalry didn't have enough arrows, or that their arm strength needed to be relieved, neither of his two bullies might be able to escape.

"Da Ming actually has such a strange person?"

Huang Taiji threw down the report angrily, and immediately mobilized his soldiers and horses, intending to encircle and wipe out the Twelve Cavalry in Tongzhou, and must not let these Ming people who killed so many Dajins survive in the world.

He has never encountered such a large loss ratio defeat!
