Borrow the day to change the day

On March [-]th of the third year of Chongzhen, the second day after the formation of the [-] battalion, Wang Qia, the former Minister of the Ministry of War, became angry before the trial and died of illness in prison.In addition, Yuan Chonghuan was sentenced to death after being tried by the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, and passed on to Jiubian.

The penalty that is different from the original history is also due to Zhong Jinwei, who captured Aixinjueluo-Amin alive in the capital, which made the whole capital vent their anger and lost so much anger.

When Zhong Jinwei returned to the capital after a period of time and heard the news of Yuan Chonghuan's death, he curiously asked the Dongchang fan whether Yuan Chonghuan recited poems when he was dying.Because he remembered, it seemed that Yuan Chonghuan said in his last words before his execution: his career will always be in vain, and his fame and fame in half his life will be in his dreams.After death, there is no need to worry about being brave, and the loyal soul still protects Liaodong.

This poem is full of passion for serving the country, and he devoted himself to the cause of the Liaodong war against captives. Zhong Jinwei was moved for a long time.

Only later, some of Yuan Chonghuan's actions caused controversy on the Internet in later generations, and there were many doubts, which made Zhong Jinwei question this poem, so he asked such a question.

Zhong Jinwei was really surprised by the answer of the Dongchang fan, saying that Yuan Chonghuan was a person hated by the people of the capital.In this case, there will be that prisoner who is still in the mood to recite poems.Even if he recited poems, others would not be able to hear him clearly.

When Zhong Jinwei heard it, he felt it made sense.In another history, the people at that time hated him even more than they do now, even hating him for eating meat.Is there anyone who will remember Yuan Chonghuan's possible poems and pass them down?

Zhong Jinwei didn't believe it after thinking about it. It was very likely that he was attached by the historians of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in order to praise Yuan Yiming.

But that history no longer exists, and no one knows what the truth is.Zhong Jinwei didn't worry about it any more, and put it behind him. [

On the same day that Yuan Chonghuan was executed, Zhou Yanru, an assistant minister of the cabinet, left Beijing for Nanjing to preside over the provincial examination.

He didn't expect to have this opportunity, so he left happily.

With Wen Tiren oppressing him in the cabinet, he didn't have much chance to do whatever he wanted.After arriving in Nanjing, he was the one who had the final say, and it was time to explain some things to his family.

The next day, which was the third day after the establishment of the Mongolian Expeditionary Force, Sun Chengzong came to their camp again.

Several generals accompanied Sun Chengzong to inspect the preparations of the army without hesitation.To be honest, the three days were too short, and many of the soldiers did not know each other.All formations and the like are nonsense, these days they are only getting to know each other.

Fortunately, these were originally the elite of the army, and their combat skills were all there.After getting familiar with the generals leading the team, they can still fight.

In the afternoon, more than 300 people lined up to be written by the book office brought by Sun Chengzong, just in case.

If this kind of battle is not composed of brave men, if they run away halfway, or retreat as soon as they leave the customs, it is impossible to achieve the strategic goal at all.

In this battle, it is very difficult to show the military prestige of the Ming Dynasty, the national prestige of the Ming Dynasty, and hurt them at the same time, so that they dare not enter the customs again.

Sun Chengzong had a long secret talk with Cao Wenzhao in the central army tent before leaving.

Early the next morning, the sun did not rise as usual, the clouds were overcast, and the spring rain was about to fall, but the temperature dropped even lower.

Even so, all the troops in King Qin's camp, whether they were cavalry or infantry, began to leave the camp as a whole with the sound of the horn, and lined up at the gate of the expeditionary army camp.

The gate of the capital city was also opened early on this day, and countless people poured out of the city, followed the official road to the departure route of the expeditionary army, and saw the expeditionary army off.

For the sake of secrecy, all the soldiers in King Qin's camp released the camp today.Similarly, in the capital, it was not until yesterday evening that the matter of forming an expeditionary force was passed down from the imperial court level by level, and finally reached every household through Lizheng.

After a strong man left the Jingmen, he buried his head on his way, thinking of grabbing a spot on the side of the road so that he could see the avenging army up close. [

Suddenly, he found a familiar figure in front of him, and immediately called out happily: "Second Brother, Second Brother."

The man turned his head and saw that he was sworn brother to his third younger brother. He stopped and waited for the strong man to catch up. He asked while driving, "Why are you here?"

"Let me see what this revenge army looks like. What about you?" The strong man smiled and answered his second brother, but he saw that the short man's expression was not very good, and he did not joke with him as usual.

"The mother-in-law's natal family was slaughtered by the Tartars. I came to see the army off. I did my best. I hope they can kill more Tartars." The short man answered the strong man as he walked.

In fact, the brawny man had already thought of the reason when the short man opened his mouth. Now that the second brother said it, he stopped talking and hurried on the road together.

In the camp of the expeditionary army, all the soldiers were ready, carrying dry food for several days, carrying all kinds of ordnance, armor, and their own horses, forming four large square formations, quietly waiting for the final order to set off.

The chilly spring breeze blew past, driving all kinds of flags to make "squeaky" sounds from time to time, and the horses occasionally sneezed white, adding a little movement to the phalanx.

In front of the phalanx, Cao Bianjiao, Huang Degong, and Zuo Liangyu held saber handles and stood behind Cao Wenzhao, motionless.

In front of Cao Wenzhao was Sun Chengzong, an assistant minister of the cabinet and Shangshu of the Ministry of War. His scarlet robe was particularly eye-catching among the armor.

"I won't talk too much. Today, according to His Majesty's order, I bring you something." After Sun Chengzong finished speaking, he waved his hands back, and the guards behind him immediately stepped forward, holding a box in both hands, To Sun Chengzong's side.

"Your Majesty gave this to you, you should open it." Sun Chengzong said solemnly to Cao Wenzhao with a solemn expression.

Cao Wenzhao was a little curious about what was in this box, gold and silver treasures?Unlike; magic weapons?The box is neither big nor like.

Don't think about it if you don't understand it, Cao Wenzhao took a step forward, lifted the lid of the box in the hands of Sun Chengzong's personal guard, froze for a moment, then stretched out his hands to hold out the contents inside.

Generals Cao, Huang, and Zuo were just behind Cao Wenzhao, so when they heard what Sun Chengzong said, they were as curious as their coach, and all stared at the coach to see what he took out from inside.

Soon they found that what Cao Wenzhao took out of the box was a folded brocade. At first they thought it was a battle robe for Cao Wenzhao, and were a little disappointed.However, I immediately realized that this idea was wrong. Judging by the size and style, it could never be a jersey.

Seeing that Cao Wenzhao was already in his hand, Sun Chengzong said to him, "Open it and have a look."

Cao Wenzhao already knew that it was a pennant. Hearing what Sun Chengzong said, he pinched the two corners of the pennant, then shook it suddenly, raised his hands high, and unfolded the pennant in his hand.

This flag is made of red brocade, with a golden edge, and a big black word "death" in the middle, which almost fills up the flag.

Seeing Cao Wenzhao's puzzled expression, Sun Chengzong explained to him: "Your Majesty decided to change the [-] camp, one of the three major camps in the capital camp, into a death camp. You can only enter this death camp if you have the will to die. Wherever you go, no piece of armor will be left. This dead flag is your battalion flag, and your dead battalion is already the cavalry battalion among the three major battalions of the Beijing camp."

The three generals behind Cao Wenzhao became excited when they heard Sun Chengzong's words.Originally, they thought that the imperial court just regarded them as death-death troops and sent them out to fight the Tartars, regardless of life or death.

Unexpectedly, the emperor valued them so much, and even changed the name of Sanqianying for them.A makeshift army of identities has a name of its own - the Death Camp, so that even if they don't return this time, history will remember them.

Cao Wenzhao turned around and recruited his own guards, and asked them to raise the battalion flag.Then he turned around and knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists to Sun Chengzong and said, "This is a fight to the death, we won't return!"

Cao Bianjiao, Huang Degong, and Zuo Liangyu followed closely and knelt on one knee: "I'm going to fight to the death, I won't return!"

The officers at all levels behind them also knelt down: "Go to fight to the death, win and never return!"

Then there was a loud roar from the large square formation: "This is a battle to the death, there will be no return!"

The momentum was so great that the soldiers of King Qin outside the camp turned their heads to look at the camp of the expeditionary army. No, it should be the camp of the dead camp now.

Sun Chengzong nodded, stepped forward to help Cao Wenzhao, and whispered: "Don't let the camp flag fall into the grassland." The underlying meaning is that you must come back alive.

Cao Wenzhao stood up, nodded vigorously, then turned to the phalanx, suddenly stretched out his right hand, raised his arms and called out: "Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!" This is the voice of the three generals.

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!" The phalanx also let out a huge roar, and the sound waves went straight into the sky, as if they wanted to tear the dark clouds that blocked the sun.

Many war horses seemed to feel the killing atmosphere on the battlefield, and they became more restless, and they all yelled "咴咴咴".

At this time, one of Sun Chengzong's personal guards stepped forward and said: "The auspicious time has come."

Seeing Sun Chengzong nodding slightly, Cao Wenzhao clasped his fists again, then quickly turned around, walked to the side of the horse led by his personal guards, turned on the horse, pulled the reins, faced the phalanx and ordered: "Get on the horse and set off."

"Dong dong dong" the ground drum sounded, and more than [-] people from the death camp got on their horses together.

The gate of the death camp was opened, and the camp flag with the word "dead" and the flag with the word "Cao" were at the front, like the eyes of a giant dragon, leading the way.The death battalion soldiers followed in a row of five cavalry.

"Salute." Under the command of the officer, all the soldiers of King Qin's army saluted the marching soldiers of the death camp.Regardless of whether you are greedy for life or afraid of death, soldiers will always respect the brave, and this respect is sincere.

Under such circumstances, the soldiers of the death battalion straightened their waists and kept moving forward, a kind of pride welled up in their hearts.

When the death camp reached the end of King Qin's queue, Cao Wenzhao found that there were densely packed civilians on both sides of the official road in front of him.

At the same time, some people among the people noticed that an army was coming.The taller burly man shouted first: "Here we come, here we come. Take a look, everyone."

Hearing this, the short man began to stare at the army, evaluating in his heart whether he could avenge him.

As he got closer, Cao Wenzhao looked at the clothes of these people. There were low-level people in coarse linen and linen, and there were rich people in brocade clothes and mink fur.Judging from their outfits, there are people from all schools and schools.

After Cao Wenzhao approached, the crowd began to commotion. Suddenly, the short man rushed out of the crowd and stood in the middle of the official road, blocking the way of the death camp.
