Chapter 196 Dispatching troops to Horqin (1)
"Jiangluo Yuan, if you were not soft-hearted about Baoyi and the Tartars, how could you do more Jiannu's work in detail? How could you harm more people?" Zhang Yong pointed to the bodies of the people all over the ground and said to Yuan Yingtai.
"I am guilty!" Yuan Yingtai burst into tears, and he knelt on the ground with a thump, and cried loudly on his back.
Zhang Yong sighed and said in his heart: This is a Chongzhen-style Shabi good man. He is kind-hearted but specialized in doing bad things. In fact, he is not enough to make a mistake. In the original time and space, Yuan Yingtai saw the two cities of Liaochen lost and committed suicide to his country. Such people are similar to loyal ministers like Shi Kefa and He Tengjiao who misled the country.
It is undeniable that Yuan Yingtai is a good official who loves the people as much as his son, and is honest and honest. This is not what the Donglin Party claims to be. He is indeed such a person. Compared with those Donglin Qunxian who are loyal to the emperor and love the people, do not compete with the people for profit, but make a fortune, and is much better than those who are too cold in the water, so Zhang Yong was a little reluctant.
"Yuan Jingluo, after all, our army won a great victory in this battle. Although Jiannu had done something in detail, his merits and demerits were more serious than his faults. Yuan Jingluo did not have to be sad." Zhang Yongdao.
Yuan Yingtai cried: "I am not for my black hat, I am a pitiful innocent people who were killed for no reason!"
Zhang Yong is not a kind-hearted person. He has decided that he will not be more ruthless than Xu Xianchun and Tian Ergeng and others when he will harm Donglin Qunxian in the future, but he really cannot take ruthless measures against Yuan Yingtai. So he said: "Although Yuan Jingluo is not aware of people, it has led to Jiannu entering the Liaochen City and killing countless innocent people. However, Yuan Jingluo made great contributions to defeating the enemy, which is a demerit. If Yuan Jingluo wanted greater contributions, he asked Yuan Jingluo to send cavalry and go deep into the Korqin grassland, and we went to settle the accounts with the Korqin people! As long as he attacked the Korqin grassland, it would be a great contribution."
Yuan Yingtai nodded: "Okay, if Eunuch Zhang wants to send troops to Korqin Grassland, I will send you troops. Who do you need to help? As long as Mr. Zhang speaks openly, I will send you."
Zhang Yongdao: "What our family and Gao Jianshi lack are cavalry. I hope Yuan Jingluo can dispatch elite cavalry for our family. Our family and Gao Jianshi go to Korqingele Zhuergen City and take down Oba Hongtaiji who has surrendered to Jiannu in one fell swoop!"
Yuan Yingtai was a little smart. After thinking for a while, he asked, "If Jiannu led his army to rescue Korqin, can our little force deal with Jiannu?"
"With Lin Danhan going to Korqin with him, Jiannu was defeated by Fengji Fort, and his strength was greatly damaged. If only our Ming army was the Ming army, he would probably not be able to stop the Jiannu cavalry; but with Lin Danhan, he would definitely be able to conquer the city of Grejuergen!" Zhang Yongdao. His judgment was very accurate. After Lin Danhan's detailed work discovered that the Korqin people were defeated and retreated, the Chahar Mongolian cavalry captured several Korqin people. After interrogation, he learned that the Later Jin was defeated in Fengji Fort, so Lin Danhan had decided to send troops to Korqin and took the opportunity to take down the Korqin tribe in one fell swoop.
Yuan Yingtai, who survived the disaster, naturally supported Zhang Yong, the military supervisor. He transferred Mao Wenlong to Zhang Yong, and was assigned to Zhang Yong by two powerful generals You Shigong and He Shixian: "Eunuch Zhang, I have allocated You Shigong and He Shixian the most capable of fighting to you. I hope you will succeed in one fell swoop."
Yuan Yingtai let out a sigh, and the happiest person was Gao Shixin. He transferred the throw to Zhang Yong, just as he obeyed his own orders.
You Shigong and He Shixian were cavalry generals. What Gao Shixin lacked the most was elite cavalry. With the cooperation of these cavalry, Mao Wenlong and his own Man Gui and others, Gao Shixin handed over the captured war horses to the 1,000 white-rod soldiers and 1,000 Qi family troops he carefully selected, turning these infantry into horse-riding infantry, which made up a cavalry of more than 10,000 people.
Next, we will deal with the captured Seizure. Except for a few captured Seizure leaders who were first imprisoned in the Jinyiwei Hundred Houses Office in Liaoyang City, waiting for interrogation, the other Seizures were all killed on the spot.
On the open ground outside Liaoyang City, more than 3,000 Hou Jin Xizu, tied up in various flowers, were taken outside the city. A large pit had been dug long ago on the ground. With Zhang Yong's order, the executioner's ghost-headed knife was cut off, and more than 3,000 heads with rat-tailed braids with money fell to the ground. The heads that landed were loaded into the car and placed together with the heads captured on the battlefield, preparing to send them back to the capital to seek merit, and the bodies were pushed into the pit to be buried.
At the same time, outside the Chenyang City, Xizuo of Later Jin was also killed. More than 2,000 captured Xizuo were taken outside the city, with swords falling, and more than 2,000 heads landed on the ground.
As for the more than a thousand Korchin Mongols captured on the battlefield, all of them were beheaded, and no one was left; and more than a hundred Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers captured were taken to the capital to offer prisoners. After the prisoner ceremony was completed, all of the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers would be beheaded; and there were more than 200 Jurchen soldiers from other tribes among the prisoners, such as the Haixi Jurchens and the Yehe Jurchens. Those prisoners were kept and incorporated into the Ming army.
According to Gao Shixin's requirements, as long as the Korchin Tatars and Jiannu were not kept, they would be killed if they were captured.
In April of the first year of Tianqi, the climate in Liaodong had warmed up. The snow on the Korqin grassland completely melted and the grasslands had returned to green. This was a good season for the people of Korqin grazing.
The Korqin people, who had been struggling to survive a winter, finally waited for spring. They drove the hungry cattle and sheep out of Glejurgen City and grazed on this plump grassland with abundant water and grass.
There are two best places in the Mongolian grassland, one is the Korqin grassland and the other is the Hetao grassland. The Hetao grassland is in the hands of the Tumote people, and the Tumote people rely on the Ming Dynasty to obtain the best place; while the Korqin people rely entirely on the Later Jin Dynasty to obtain such a good place.
Just as the Korqin herders were urging cattle and sheep to grazing, they suddenly discovered that a Mongolian cavalry suddenly appeared on the grassland to the west, galloping towards them.
The cavalry was approaching and you could see the Mongolian Khan flag in the middle of the cavalry team.
"Not good! Chahar people! It's Chahar people coming!" The people of Korqin drove the cattle and sheep in panic and ran away to the direction of their hometown Glejurgen City.
At the same time, the Korqin herders also asked people to ride back to Grejurgen City to report to Oba Hongtaiji.
Can cattle and sheep be driven to escape the cavalry? Except for the cavalry that rode on a fast horse and returned to the city to report, the rest of the Korqin herders were all caught up by the Chahar cavalry.
The Mongols' arrows shot into the throat of the Mongols, and the Mongols' scimitar cut off the Mongols' heads. The rebellious Korqin herders were all killed by the Chahar cavalry, and the remaining Korqin knelt down and surrendered. They were captured by Lin Danhan and became slaves. All the cattle and sheep released to eat grass became the trophy of the Chahars.
Obahontaji received a report and immediately sent him to Hetuara City to ask for help from the old slave.
"Great Khan, the Chahar people are here again! Countless people of our Korchin tribe were brutally killed, and all the living were kidnapped by Lin Danhan! Countless cattle and sheep were taken away!" The envoy knelt in front of the wild boar skin, crying and asking the wild boar skin to send troops to rescue.
"Khan Ama, our army is newly defeated, how can we have the strength to save the Korqin people?" Mangguertai said kneeling.
Wild Boar Skin glared at his son fiercely: "If our allies are in trouble and our army does not save them, then who will dare to form an alliance with our Dajin in the future? The original Mongolian allies were all destroyed by Xiong Manzi, and only the Korqin people are the most iron ally of my Dajin. If even the Korqin people are not saved, my Dajin will completely lose allies!"
It has to be said that Xiong Tingbi's strategy of both kindness and power is very effective. In the past two years when Lao Xiong managed Liaodong, many fence-headed grasslands on the eastern and western Liaoning grasslands had cut off contact with the Dajin and turned around and threw themselves into the arms of the Ming Dynasty. There were even many Mongolians, even the envoys sent by the Dajin to negotiate, and the heads sent to the Dajin to ask for merit.
