Chapter 42 Serb Chief
These hundreds of armored men who built slaves with the white flag are also really strong enough. Six hundred people fought against a cavalry battalion of the Yu family army. After being first shot by the Jia army cavalry, they had suffered more than half of the casualties. Less than 300 people left were actually stunned in the torrent of cavalry and persisted to the last person, and no one He escaped, together with Dorcon, all killed on the spot.
But before they were slaughtered, they also caused a lot of casualties to the Yu family's cavalry camp. Less than 300 infantry armor actually killed and injured nearly 300 Yu's cavalry, which was almost a one-to-one exchange ratio. This is a unique brilliant record in the chaos of infantry against cavalry, not to mention the armed to the teeth. The Qi army cavalry are proud enough to achieve such a result.
Dorgun's armor is obviously different from other slaves. At first glance, he is a slave chief, and his status must be very high. Therefore, after Dorgun was killed, the soldiers of the Yu family army respected him and did not destroy his body, so that he was full of long guns and stood on the battlefield.
Yu Xiaotian did not see Dorgon, but when he arrived at this warring place, he still saw Dorgon's body at first sight. He rode a horse in front of Dorgon's body, silently stared at Dorgon, sighed slightly and said, "No matter who this person is, he deserves what we do. Soldiers give him respect! You take his body properly and find out his identity!"
Not long after, his guards captured several slave soldiers and asked them to identify their bodies. As soon as these slaves saw Dorton's body, they immediately knelt down and cried and recognized Dorton's identity on the spot.
Yu Xiaotian did not expect that Dorgeon would personally leave the break, and even gave up the war horse. He only led hundreds of armored men in the white flag and stayed behind after the final break for other slaves. By doing so, he had made up his own death and left him no way out at all.
Therefore, Yu Xiaotian was also shocked when he heard the news. He immediately pulled the horse back and personally examined Dorgun's body. After taking off Dorgun's armor, Yu Xiaotian found that there were more than 20 large and small wounds on Dorgun's body, including bullet wounds. There were also knife wounds and more than a dozen transparent holes, all of which were stabbed by guns.
In the torrent of cavalry, even if a person is heavily armored and can block some killing and injuries, it is difficult to do so. It can be seen that Dorpon is indeed a tough general, and he can also be called a conscientious general. When the army failed, he bravely chose to face failure and face his own defeat. If he loses his choice, he will have the courage to take responsibility. He would rather die on the battlefield than be a coward who escapes with his tail.
Therefore, although Yu Xiaotian hated these Jiannu and harut, he still gave due respect for Dorson's heroic performance.
He ordered someone to carefully clean Dorgon's body. Originally, he wanted to order Dorgon be buried on the spot, but on second thought, it seemed inappropriate to do so. Even if Dorgon is dead, it is still of great value, and even if he set up a monument for his grave, it is estimated that he will be hated in the future. The Ming people dug the grave and broke their bones and ashes.
So instead of burying him, it's better to let him continue to play some residual heat, so after discussing with his men, he immediately came up with a solution.
Yu Xiaotian knows exactly what the court thinks of him now. Even if he fights to the death with Jiannu today and successfully defeats the Jiannu army, the court will only be more afraid of him and will never change its mind and regard him as a loyal minister, and he really does not intend to be a loyal lackey of the Ming Dynasty.
At this time, if the news comes to the capital, Yu Xiaotian can expect that Chongzhen will immediately try his best to bring him on a major charge of treason and force him to either rebel or lead his troops back to Fujian.
So before that, he must first find a way to hit the court and win more people's hearts. At present, Dorgan's body is undoubtedly a very good item that can be borrowed.
So after discussing with his advisers, he immediately sent three teams to go on the road overnight. Two teams covered him. A team carried Dorman's body, crossed the blockade line of the Ming army, and sent Dorson's body to the capital to play for victory.
By the way, Yu Xiaotian also asked his men to draw up a report, which was sent to Beijing. Once he was intercepted by the Ming officers on the road, he ordered his men to hand over Dorgan's body to them, and also handed over his report to the other party to protect his own safety and withdraw.
However, the three cavalry teams successfully completed the task. They went out day and night, took advantage of the night to rush, and finally sent Dorgan's body to the capital.
Chongzhen was busy hating Yu Xiaotian. He had just issued the edict that told the world with a seal, ordered people to post notices everywhere in the capital, and sent people to send the edict to various places for circulation. At the same time, he also sent people to send an edict to Yu Xiaotian to remove Yu Xiaotian from his military position, wait for the release, and ordered Yu's army to put it down on the spot. Weapons, accept the reorganization and placement of officers and soldiers.
Of course, he also knows very well that Yu Xiaotian will definitely not follow his edict, but this is enough for him to do so. The king makes his ministers have to die. He is the emperor. He has the final say. Whether Yu Xiaotian listens or not is his business. If he does not listen is to the decree, he is a rebellious minister. This crime is confirmed.
However, as soon as he issued the edict, he had not had time to post it in the capital, and the people sent to preach the decree had just left Beijing. Yu Xiaotian actually sent someone to send Dorgan's body to the capital, and roared through the city and went straight to the east gate of the capital.
Chongzhen was dizzy at that time. What did Yu do? He was almost sure of his idea everywhere. As soon as he took action, Yu Xiaotian took the lead and sent Dorgan's body to the capital, and his edict had not been posted. The news that Dorgan was killed by the Yu family army on the spot spread all over the capital last night.
At first, the people in the capital only knew the news of Yu Xiaotian's army's victory in Tianjin, and only knew that the Yu's army completely defeated the whole slave army, but they did not know that Dorcon, the slave chief who led the army to the customs this time, was also beheaded by the Yu's army.
Now that I heard the news that the slave chief Dornon was beheading on the spot, more than 300,000 people in the capital suddenly boiled up again. Overnight, there were the sound of firecrackers everywhere in the capital city, making it feel like the Spring Festival. In a few days, the shops selling firecrackers in the capital were announced that they were sold out, and some people took the opportunity to take advantage of it. The price increase also made a small fortune.
Everyone is looking forward to sending the head of the slave chief Dolson to Beijing, and then tour the streets to boast, so that the Ming people can also raise their eyebrows and exhale. For many years, the Ming people have not heard such good news, and it is said that this Dorcan Or a prince of Jiannu, his status is only under the current emperor Taiji of Jiannu.
If anyone has made such a great contribution, I don't know how the emperor will be rewarded today! It is estimated that the reward of 10,000 taels of silver is light, and at least it should be given to Yipinzhu Guoshi to do it!
Early the next morning, they heard the news that the soldiers of the Yu family had sent Dorcen's body to the east gate of the capital, and now it is outside the east gate.
So as soon as the people heard about it, many good people immediately ran to the East Gate, wanting to see for themselves what this slave chief Dorgan looked like, and whether his blue-faced tusks were like a fierce ghost.
However, at this time, the government officials of Shuntianfu knocked on the gongs and began to post notices everywhere on the street, and it was actually an edict issued by the emperor himself.
People who knew words walked up to watch. At first, they thought it must be the news heard by the court. Longyan was happy. Maybe they wanted to tell the world to celebrate the achievements of the family army, but under this view, everyone's eyes fell to the ground.
It turned out that this notice telling the world was completely contrary to what they thought. The emperor actually counted more than a dozen major crimes of Yu Xiaotian, saying that Yu Xiaotian was a traitor. The fundamental purpose of going north this time was not to fight any slaves, but to seduce the hearts of the people, rebel, go straight to the capital, and want to take the emperor. To order the princes.
Therefore, such a traitor and thief should be killed by everyone and tell the world. Don't believe in the temptation of filial piety and get along with it.
When this notice was posted, the people in the city immediately spread it, and it suddenly became chaotic. The people really couldn't understand it. Yu Xiaotian was obviously a loyal minister. He led troops from Fujian to the king of Qin, and fought alone. He fought against 100,000 slaves in Tianjin and successfully restrained the enemy. The ice of the 100,000-slave army was disintegrated, and even Dorgo, the slave chief, was killed by them.
But it's okay if the court doesn't reward him. Why did he turn against him and directly identify him as a traitor? If people want to rebel, why bother to fight with Jiannu in Tianjin? This obviously doesn't make sense! How can there be such a thing in the world?
The common people do not have the awareness of the emperor and those flowery officials. They can't think too deeply. They only recognize a clear truth. Whoever builds slaves is a good man and a loyal minister.
They are also watching. So many officers and soldiers in the Ming Dynasty gathered around the capital, but after Jiannu entered the customs, what did these officers and soldiers do? They hid in the camp all day, allowing Jiannu to go straight into more than 2,000 miles into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, attacking the city, burning, killing and looting. Those officials and generals almost turned a blind eye to it. Finally, they came out of an Lu military gate and dared to lead the army against the Jiannu army, but they were still forced to die by Yang Sichang and Gao Qi.
After the plunder of the Jiannu, they had to take a lot of wealth and so many Ming people out of the customs, but no officers and soldiers would stop the Jiannu army and save those people.
