Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 497

Some scenes from the anti-Japanese drama appeared.

The landmines of the Qihuo Army once caused great harm to the unknown depths of the Gezuo Fifth Battalion and Cao Cao under the city of Xinzhou. Who would have thought that something deadly could emerge from the ground?It is not that the Ming army did not have landmines these days, and there were quite a few of them, but they were all mines that triggered, and people needed to watch them, and wait for the enemy to pass by to pull the fiber or ignite them to detonate, or some mines were traps, and some property was buried in the ground. It is triggered when digging. It is the size of a palm like the beggar army. Just bury it in the ground and it will explode when you step on it.

More than 30 cavalrymen are just a drizzle for tens of thousands of taels of white flags, but the army is not a game after all, who is not afraid that one kick may blow up their own bodies?In desperation, Dorgon ordered a large blackened roller to be removed from a nearby village, and ordered a dozen sergeants to push it in front, while the army advanced slowly behind. Not to mention, this really detonated many beggars. Live army mines, but the speed advantage of the cavalry was really thrown into the Pacific Ocean.

This is still a psychological warfare. Whenever I push a certain distance and feel that there is no time, two explosions will explode in front, or Azig is furious, and when he wants to go around the mountain road, two explosions explode on the mountain. Gao, Song Qingshu ordered hundreds of them to be buried, even if they were all blown up, it would only kill a few hundred people, but Dorgon's army was terrified, and it took five days to complete the three-day journey of the begging army.

At the mouth of Liaohe River at this time, let alone people, there was no wood left for Dorgon for the two of them.

Looking at the boundless ocean, this Zhiduo star, who is one of the best in Jiannu, couldn't help showing a deep worry on his face, and Azig, who was tortured enough, also cursed angrily.

"Ming of the day, the Ming army, use some schemes and tricks, and have the ability to fight with Lao Tzu with real swords and guns!"

"There are tens of millions of Han Chinese in Ming Dynasty, and only a few hundred thousand people in our country. If everyone buried a landmine, our country would probably go to hell!" Hearing his roar, Dorgon also sighed, but Immediately, veins appeared again on Dorgon's smooth head.

"So, if you want to defeat Daming, you must win over the Han dogs, and let those self-interested Han dogs help our nation fight the thunder, big brother! The third child! Even if you make a show in the future, you can no longer bully us and work hard for us." The Han people are covered!"

The two subconsciously nodded with lingering fear.

…………

Song Qingshu didn't expect that his hundreds of landmines would ease the internal ethnic conflicts in the Qing Dynasty a lot, but he didn't have the heart to think about it. The key part of the whole campaign was to fish out the unlucky Hong Chengchou to top the tank.

There were no telephones in this era, and it would take at least four or five days for a messenger to travel from Liaohekou to Jinzhou. As he expected, after receiving the report from the old eunuch, Huang Taiji really retreated with the army.

At least 4 Qing troops, mixed with more than [-] soldiers and civilians from Jinzhou City, retreated to the direction of Shengjing. The one who stayed behind to besiege Songshan was Abatai. Defend Jinzhou, Songshan, and Guangning Qiantunwei, a large area of ​​the newly occupied Liaoxi Corridor, this is Song Qingshu's opportunity!
Matsuyama Castle.

The reason why it is called a mountain city is not without reason. It hangs high above the pine mountain, surrounded by cliffs, and there is only one trail to go up the mountain. The dangerous Ming army in this place has been defeated and more than 6 people died in battle. People, the whole army no longer exists, Huang Taiji still does not plan to attack the city, and only sieges here with forty Niulu troops.

However, the entire city was filled with despair. On the top of the city, the soldiers wandering back and forth were like ghosts, and more people lay there in piles like dead people.

At this time, it is not only the enemy to guard against!

At that time, Zu Dashou was ordered to build the Dalinghe City, and he took 30 soldiers and [-] civilians with him. Before the city was repaired, he was surrounded by the Qing army for nine months. After nine months, [-] horses and [-] civilians were almost eaten away. At the end, Zu Dashou feigned surrender and fled back to Jinzhou with only more than [-] cavalry. Huang Taiji took over Dalinghe City, but only seven or eight thousand.

The reason why the retreat of the Ming army turned into a rout was because the food was taken away by the Qing army. Songshan City had long been out of food, and the most terrifying acts in human history continued to happen here.

With the army, fellow countrymen, and fellow soldiers as units, starving soldiers and beasts peeped at each other like beasts, and the horse meat obtained from slaughtering horses was almost monopolized by the soldiers and generals. Once a load of food is left alone, it will disappear almost quickly, and when found again, only broken bones are left, and there are not even bones left, only some black carbon ash.

Everyone eats each other, cooking bones for salary!The whole city was filled with a breath of death.

"There! Bird! There!"

It was the horrifying cry of being hungry and crazy again. Dozens of soldiers ran over screaming like zombies crawling out of the tomb. On the ground, some people even lay down on the ground and directly sucked the wet blood.

But at this time, a burst of shouting and cursing came from the entrance of the alley, and then several soldiers in armor ran out cursing as well. The hungry soldiers were kicked away, and the two who resisted were even chopped off with knives.

The commanders and personal soldiers are the last soldiers in the city. There are more than 1 remnants and thousands of horses. The personal soldiers have been relying on horse meat to make a living. Relying on the personal soldiers, the Jiliao Governor's Mansion maintains the last rule of Ming Dynasty here. with privileges.

"The supervisor has not had a good appetite these days, so I happened to get a bird back to give the supervisor a tooth-beating sacrifice!" Opening up the hungry soldiers, hundreds of households of the soldiers were full of joy and pulled up from the blood pile, but soon he was unlucky Spit out.

"Damn it, you're playing with people! What kind of bird, a kite can do this!"

Holding the kite for a few glances, the leader of the bodyguard threw it unluckily, stepped on it, and shrank back.

As soon as the soldiers left, the two groups of hungry soldiers came out like mice dodging cats, and stopped fighting. The two corpses dragged one of them away, and quickly disappeared into the dark house.

However, this scene continued to play out in many places in Songshan City, and after all, someone took the kite back.

"Supervisor! Supervisor!"

After the defeat in July, Hong Chengchou locked himself in the Songshan Mansion and almost never came out. The defeat also crushed the spirit of the mighty God of War in the war against the peasant army, and he no longer cared about the army. Hong Chengchou writes hard every day, what farewell poems, quatrains, farewell words have been written recently, I don’t know how many!
Hearing the shouts outside, Hong Chengchou was angrily writing a desperate poem at this time, and couldn't help but waved his hands impatiently: "If you have any food, give it to the brothers! This commander doesn't need this anymore!"

"Master, it's not food, reinforcements!"

This time, he no longer cared about his superiority and inferiority. In the roar of excitement, Cao Bianjiao, the unkempt Lintao General Soldier, slapped the blood-red paper kite on Hong Chengchou's manuscript, and the blood dyed the rice paper all at once. Red, angry Hong Chengchou was about to yell and yell, but before he could yell, his eyes went straight.

Since the defeat in July, it has been nearly four months since the account was raised. Today, the governor’s yamen is like a mess. General Cao Bianjiao, Wang Tingchen, Li Fuming, Xia Chengde, Zu Dale, Liaodong governor Qiu Minyang are almost all killed. Called over, a large group of people stared at the bloody kite on the table.

"Could this be Jiannu's trick?"

One emperor, one courtier, what emperor and what minister, Chongzhen was 17 years old, and his death was imminent. Emperor Chongzhen was still hesitant to transfer the Shanhaiguan army back to the capital, or move the capital to Yingtian. In the end, he wasted the last chance to save the Ming Dynasty. , Qiu Minyang was a courtier selected by Chongzhen, and at this time he frowned and shook his head for the first time.

However, this time, Hong Chengchou was beyond ordinary affirmation, even with a little excitement, he nodded heavily and said: "No mistake! This is definitely the reinforcements! It is the Huai army!"

There is only a sentence embroidered on the kite, the old man in Xi'an invites Jundu to enjoy wave food spots, three yellows and one green with a little snow!

This cryptic code can point out the time, place, and characters. Crossing the New Year is the New Year's Eve, enjoying the waves is the seaside, eating spots, three yellows and one green snow are Song Qingshu's identity. Song Qingshu was in Xi'an back then. When I was selling wine, Hong Chengchou was a regular customer, three yellows and one green, a cup of fruit juice for three classes, and coconut cake with a little snow. After finding out, Hong Chengchou died in peace.

Hong Chengchou's cruel appearance hides a heart that is afraid of death. Otherwise, he would not have been captured in March after being besieged for more than a year, and his hair would be shaved and surrendered in May. If there was a life-saving straw, he would definitely Holding on to it, listening to the coach's suppressed excitement explanation, a dozen or so civil servants and generals also showed excitement, but immediately, the governor of Liaodong, who was not bad or uncomfortable, raised a sharp question again.

"Who will cut off the queen?"

After being trapped in Songshan City, the Ming army did not try to break out of the siege, but they attacked six times in a row, and they were all beaten back by Jiannu. Thousands of corpses were left behind for no reason at the foot of the mountain. To respond, it is a big problem to break through the encirclement net of Jiannu and escape to the seaside, and the whole army is so hungry, it is impossible to escape all of them, there are always people in need who stay behind or go out of the city Assault, rushing into chaos Jiannu's army horses as a cover.

Those who escape may not be able to return to Daming alive, but those who are in the back of the palace will undoubtedly die. This is said, even Cao Bianjiao and other fierce generals are hesitant, Li Fuming and Zu Dale simply took a few small steps back, If the city is broken, everyone will die together, but if you escape and I die, no one will be reconciled.

What's more, everyone knows how mean and ungrateful Emperor Chongzhen is. He died in vain. He can't count on the court's compensation. Intertwined with each other, that look is very strange.

Suddenly, a few soft coughs rang out, and the person who made the sound was Xia Chengde, the lieutenant at the bottom of the ranking. Immediately, from Hong Chengchou to Cao Bianjiao, everyone's eyes were filled with blaze, but after the cough, Xia Chengde was A series of surprising words were said in succession.

"The last general still has 320 five horses, several sacks of miscellaneous grains, [-] sergeants, thirteen days away from crossing the new year, the last general has a thousand generals under his command, Zhao Duzi, and Wang Ergouzi is always supported by soldiers..."

Those who can become a high official are not so stupid. After a few seconds of stunned, Cao Bianjiao also nodded.

"The last general has five hundred and two horses, two thousand and seven soldiers, six guerrilla fighters, Zhang San has never been under the control of the last general!"

"The last general has four hundred and two horses and one thousand soldiers..."

…………

It seems that Song Qingshu didn't spend a few good years after time travel. For several consecutive years, the holidays were either on horseback or in trenches.

The fleet has been lingering in the open sea for more than half a month. After eating fish for half a month, this year's New Year's Eve dinner has turned into eating sand. Taking advantage of the afterglow of the evening, dozens of small boats rushed to the beach, and used cold guns to get rid of Jiannu's swimmers. After riding, a large group of sand boats rushed onto the beach.

December in Liaodong is really icy cold, but the sea water with high salinity is not so easy to freeze. As soon as they landed on the shore, a large number of soldiers of the beggar army immediately took up their engineering shovels and packed bags of sand. After the trench was dug, while the soldiers and horses of a division shouted and roared, several parapets made of sandbags were erected by the sea.

Spit out a mouthful of sand full of salty smell, standing on the sandbag, Song Qingshu gazed gloomyly towards the west. In this era, he has fought countless battles with history naked, but the Ming Empire in front of him is still one step away. Song Qingshu doesn't know if this is the last move he gambled, and if he loses, he won't I know if I still have the courage to continue struggling.

"Take a good look at the portrait. If things fail, kill Hong Chengchou immediately, and don't let him be humiliated at the hands of Jiannu!"

62 of the most elite snipers from each army were selected, carrying rifles, lined up in a line with stern faces, listening to Song Qingshu's order, these people raised their guns in unison and saluted: "I obey!"

On the other side of the beach, more than 500 selected Liaodong war horses were also snorting and kicking their knees. The snipers were distributed in the position. Immediately after, Song Qingshu stepped out of the sandbags, and outside, the beggars who were also in armor were grooming the war horses. The number one general of the living army, Zhou Yuji, also put down the reins of his horse and cupped his fists at Song Qingshu.

"Don't worry, Commander. At the end of the year, I don't know how many times I fought back and forth between Song Jinxing, and I will definitely be able to bring Hong Chengchou back to the Commander!"

Nodding heavily, Song Qingshu immediately patted Zhou Yuji's shoulder.

"Must come back!"

There was no impassioned and strong words, Zhou Yuji was obviously stunned by this plain sentence, and then he nodded even more vigorously.

The bottom of the time-keeping copper pot brought ashore is running out of water, and the moon has risen high in the eastern sky. In the bitter Liaodong knife wind, the white and tender cheeks raised in the south of the Yangtze River have finally become white and tender again. Rough and red, he got on his horse, pulled out his saber, and turned his head to the cavalry of the First Division, Zhou Yuji roared in a low voice.

"Rescue Governor Hong! Let's fight!"
