Chapter 196 The Destruction of Dongjiang Town
When the Yu family army launched the operation to capture Lushun Fort, he was unprepared. During this period, he was taking advantage of the rare good weather to scatter most of his soldiers and people, digging ginseng in the forest to collect all kinds of wild vegetables and nuts and other things, and also cut firewood to prepare for the winter.
When a fleet suddenly appeared outside Lushun Fort, Shang Kexi was scared to death and quickly ordered to close the gate of Lushun Fort and recruit the soldiers left behind to defend the city.
Soon a group of soldiers and horses were unloaded from the ship to the shore and quickly surrounded Lushun Fort. After a period of stalemate between the two sides, the officers of the sea wolf invited them to negotiate.
It's still happy to see that this battle can't be fought. The black holes on the huge ships on the sea point directly to Lushun Fort. As long as the battle is started, it is estimated that a platoon of cannons can forcibly demolish his Lushun Fort. As long as this battle is fought, he and the soldiers and the people in the fort will definitely die.
So he had no choice but to negotiate with these nine-headed people. Finally, after the secret negotiations, he happily announced his surrender and ordered to disarm Lushun Fort and hand over Lushun Fort to the so-called nine-headed dragons.
Shang Kexi was allowed to board the ship with his family and leave Lushun Fort and was sent to Taiwan Island. Yu Xiaotian ordered to treat Shang Kexi well. If he did nothing else, he took the initiative to put down his weapons to avoid the swords and soldiers of both sides from meeting, and avoided unnecessary casualties of the soldiers of Lushun Fort.
In addition, Yu Xiaotian secretly summoned Shang Kexi once. The two sides talked deeply for a day. Yu Xiaotian found that Shang Kexi was also a temperamental person, but he was also quite straightforward.
When asked about Shang Kexi's future plans, Shang Kexi proposed that he still wanted to work in the army. He had completely lost confidence in Daming. In his current situation, he could only choose to rely on Xiaotian. Yu Xiaotian agreed to Shang Kexi's request and sent him to Jeju Island to enter the army of the sea wolf.
Later, Shang Ke was really happy to be in the northern army. A few years later, because of his repeated military achievements, he was promoted to the level of major general division. Finally, he retired as a lieutenant and general and returned to his hometown to retire, and ended a good end.
In addition, after surrendering to Yu Xiaotian, Shang Kexi was sent to Dongjiang Town for a period of time. At the beginning of the 11th year of Chongzhen, when the Jiannu army stormed Dongjiang Town, he secretly contacted many old departments of the Dongjiang army and defected to the Yu family army. In this way, almost all the Dongjiang army was avoided and was finally annihilated by the Jiannu army. Most of them surrendered to Jiannu and became traitors, and later became the pawns of Jiannu entering the customs to slaughter the Han people.
Because of the surrender of Shang Kexi and Kong Youde and others, as well as the previously captured old generals of Dongjiang such as Mao Chenglu, when Jiannu attacked Dongjiang Town, during this period, they were fully utilized by Yu Xiaotian and sent a lot of people to travel between the various parts of the Dongjiang River. At the beginning, they had a lot of old knowledge under their lobbying. Unable to defend Dongjiang Town, he had to escape to Lushun Fort and eventually became a member of the Yu family army, so that Jiannu did not get a large number of prisoners and slaves when he took the Liaodong Peninsula.
In August, the sea wolf controlled Lushun Fort and then distributed messages. Anyone who is willing to follow the nine-headed dragonfly can go to Lushun Fort. As long as you follow him, you can eat and wear warmly.
As a result, in just more than half a year, tens of thousands of the remaining soldiers and civilians in Liaodong went to Lushunbao and defected to the Yu family army.
These people were temporarily transferred to Jeju Island. Some of them stayed on Jeju Island to raise horses or cultivate fields, and some were retrained into the army and changed their identities to become members of the Yu family army.
After Jiannu forced to surrender*, the following year, at the beginning of the 11th year, Chongzhen began to launch a fierce attack on Dongjiang Town.
The defenders of Dongjiang Town are no longer able to stop the attack of the Jiannu army at all. The important fortresses of the Dongjiang army such as Pidao have fallen one after another. In the end, the whole Dongjiang army was completely wiped out. Fortunately, at this time, many people have fled to Lushun Fort in advance to seek shelter. In addition, when Jiannu attacked, many people The whole family fled to Lushunbao to seek asylum, so that Lushunbao acquired a large number of old troops of the Dongjiang Army and a large number of Liaodong Han people in this half a year.
In March of Chongzhen, the Jiannu army attacked Lushun Fort. When his identity was revealed, Jiannu also tried to take Lushun Fort. The sea wolf defenders of Lushun Fort immediately fired guns and knocked Jiannu who tried to attack Lushun Fort upside down and collapsed.
At this time, Jiannu knew the so-called nine-headed dragonfly. In addition, the sea wolf personnel who had been doing business with them at this time came forward to mediation, saying that they were also friends with nine-headed dragons. Nine-headed dragons were just a group of pirates persecuted by Daming. They just wanted to gain a foothold in the area of Lushun Fort and had no intention of their so-called Qing Dynasty. As long as the slave army does not fight Lushun Fort, the two sides can be at peace with each other.
And they are also willing to set up a place for trade transactions with the Qing Dynasty in Lushun Fort in the future. After Huang Taiji learned about it, he thought about it again and again, but he did not know that the nine-headed dragons were actually with those sea wolves who did business with them. Now the generals who went to fight Lushun Fort and sent back the news that the nine-headed dragonfly's hand The lower part was quite powerful, and the guns were extremely sharp. The soldiers and horses they attacked Lushun Fort were killed and injured.
In addition, when they were defeated, Jiutoujiao's men did not go out of the city to pursue, which seemed to be in response to what the sea wolf lobbyist said. A group of pirates just wanted to gain a foothold in the area of Lushun Fort and regard Lushun Port as their nest, a group of pirates, but in fact, they were still against Daming.
Since the nine-headed Jiao and the Qing army could not gnaw on it, and the nine-headed group did not intend to be enemies with them. In addition, they also made it clear that the nine-headed group would still be the enemy of Daming in the future, Huang Taiji finally had to acquiesce to this fact and put the area of Lushun Port under the control of the Jiutou group. However, the two sides have drawn a clear boundary. In the future, the well water will not violate the river, and no one can invade the jurisdiction of the other party.
And on the other side of Jiutoujiao, when they heard the news, even if they agreed, the two sides still made an agreement and signed it, which was real.
In fact, Jiannu is not as awesome as many people's rumored. Before the sea wolf's guns, they were still raised by their mother and father, and they would still die. However, in the past, the Ming army was so bad that after defeating the war, they could only say how strong the Jiannu army was. Later, under the rumor, it seemed that Jiannu's Eight Banner Army is awesome. In fact, a large part of it is spread by the Ming army fighting against the five scum.
So that when the Qing army entered the customs, as soon as the Ming army met the Qing army, before they fought, their momentum weakened a little. If they could still win this battle, it would be strange.
Through this fight in Lushun Fort, the sea wolf soldiers also completely understood the so-called power of the slave army. As soon as the gunshots were fired, the slave soldiers immediately fell to the ground. After a few rows of guns went down, the Jiannu army immediately collapsed and began to turn around and flee from Lushun Fort.
Compared with the enemies they usually met, why didn't they find that the Jiannu army was strong? At best, they persisted for a while and killed more! I really didn't see where they were!
Even the Liaodong soldiers and civilians hiding in Lushun Fort were very surprised when they saw this scene. The slave army, which was usually regarded by them as a flood and beast, was beaten so unbearably under the hands of the nine-headed dragonfly. What heavy armor in front of the nine-headed dragonfly firearms was actually like paper.
Those usually fierce Eight Banner soldiers were knocked down one by one in front of the firearms of the nine-headed men's men, like scarecrows. With one shot, Jiannu's team opened a bloody alley, or was bombarded and killed. It turned out that Jiannu would also be afraid. When he met soldiers and horses that were more powerful than them, he would also Run like a rabbit.
Such a scene makes the soldiers and civilians in Liaodong who have been bullied by all the construction slaves have a feeling of raising their eyebrows, and also create a strong sense of security.
When they were taken to Lushunbao by the nine-headed Jiao people, when they heard that the Jiannu army was coming to attack, there was a big ** among them. They were afraid that the nine-headed Jiao people could not stop the Jiannu army, and they were scared to piss off, but they didn't expect that Jiannu would be defeated so quickly under the war, so miserable, only half At that time, two or three hundred people were killed and injured by the nine-headed dragon's men, and the rest of the construction soldiers suddenly dispersed as birds and beasts, and fled the battlefield with shouts and withdrew from the distance.
Only then did these Liaodong soldiers and civilians know the power of the nine-headed dragonfly, and their hearts were completely put into their stomachs and no longer worried about their own safety.
And the soldiers and civilians in Liaodong who were received found that these nine-headed dragons were well-trained and well-equipped. They did not look like pirates at all, but more like a well-trained elite soldiers and horses. Although they defended the city and did not go out of the city to fight, it can still be seen that they were building a slave army. When it came, it showed extreme calmness, and no one showed fear.
In addition, these nine-headed subordinates were very strict in the implementation of the military order and had a moderate advance and retreat. Everything was in accordance with the orders of the leaders, saying that they would open fire together, and there was no chaos, so some people began to doubt their identity.
But it is doubtful that this is a good thing for these Liaodong soldiers and civilians. Now these people have long been extremely disappointed with the Ming Dynasty. Many people no longer regard themselves as the people of the Ming Dynasty. In their view, these people are just people abandoned by the Ming Dynasty. Over the years, he They didn't look forward to coming to the Ming Dynasty to restore Liaodong, nor did they get much assistance from the Ming Dynasty. They hung alone in Dongjiang Town. They didn't have enough food and clothes all day long, and their hardships of life was forced to the extreme.
Everyone holds the idea of counting two days a day and waiting for the end of their own doomsday, because they don't know when the army of Jiannu will come over and the butcher's knife will fall on their necks. They have had enough of this precarious life, although now It's just a group of pirates who protect them, but what is this?
