Chapter 109: Enforcement of Slavery(1/2)
The black smoke rolled, Qin Town was in a mess, hundreds of private houses turned into ruins. After the Eight Banners Army captured Qin Town, Dorgon and Ajige indulged the soldiers under their command to loot everywhere and loot the spoils.
Qin Town became a hell on earth, and thousands of people were killed.
Dorgon and Ajige had another purpose - burning, killing, looting, which could increase the morale of their subordinates.
Li Mi brought Wang Bodang and other military generals into Qin Town, and was somewhat regretful to borrow troops from Nurhaci.
Dorgon and Ajige, as a guest army, turned against each other and issued an order to wipe out Qin Town without authorization.
Li Mi captured Qin Town, which was equivalent to Qin Town becoming Li Mi's territory. Dorgon and Ajige looted Qin Town, but were actually looting Li Mi's territory!
Moreover, the actions of the Eight Banners Army made Li Mi, who was born in aristocratic families, feel disgusted.
"Dorgon, Ajige, immediately order your troops to stop looting, otherwise I will reduce the price of promise to Nurhaci."
Li Mi found Dorgon and scolded him sternly.
Li Mi and Nurhaci are people of similar status and will not be afraid of Nurhaci's son.
A trace of murderous intent flashed deep in Dorgon's eyes, but then the murderous intent was hidden.
Dorgon gave Li Mi face and ordered the withdrawal of troops, and the remaining population in Qin Town escaped.
"This group of wolves is ambitious. When I proclaim myself emperor, I will destroy it."
When Li Mi saw Dorgon and others plundering wantonly, he also had the intention of killing in his heart.
However, before occupying the Luoyang Basin and surpassing Nurhaci's strength, Li Mi tried his best to endure it.
"Lord, son Fusu, Qin general Meng Tian, Wang Li fled Qin Town, disappeared!"
"Shan Xiongxin, Cheng Yaojin is not here, it is difficult to intercept Meng Tian's Golden Fire Cavalry. Forget it."
Li Mi didn't care about Meng Tian's escape.
His main purpose was to annex the 70,000 people of the Gongzi Fusu power and strengthen his power.
Even if Meng Tian is a famous general, as long as Li Mi's power is strong enough, he can still defeat Meng Tian.
"I want to gather the strong men in the town to have a place to use it."
Dorgon sent the Eight Banners cavalry to summon thousands of strong men in Qin Town, who gathered in the open space of Qin Town and were at a loss.
These strong men didn't know why Dorgon gathered them together.
Li Mi and Wang Bodang didn't understand either.
But under Dorgon's insistence, it was related to defeating Zhang Hua in Xia Zhen. Li Mi agreed to Dorgon summoning the young and strong Qin Zhen.
"In the future, you will be my slaves of Dorgon. You will conquer cities and territory for me. Those who violate the rules will die!"
Dorgon's talent was effective, which inspired the servility of the young and strong Qin Zhen, and transferred all the young and strong Qin Zhen into a first-class servant army!
Thousands of young and strong Qin Town were influenced by Dorgon's talent, and their eyes gradually became blurred. They were afraid of Dorgon, as if Dorgon was their natural master, and slaves were born inferior.
The servile servility was quickly magnified because of Dorgon's talent.
These young and strong men became Dorgon's cannon fodder troops, densely packed like locusts, and were called the "Locust Army" by the forces fighting Dorgon.
Dorgon's talent "slavery and strengthening" is similar to Huang Taiji's talent "winning people's hearts", and both belong to the talent of spiritual influence.
However, Huang Taiji's talent can have an impact on civil servants and military generals, but is relatively gentle to civilians.
Dorgon's talent is even more domineering, and he can forcibly transfer civilians to first-class slaves.
Correspondingly, Dorgon's talent was ineffective against civil and military officials.
"The eyes of many young and strong Qin Town have changed. Dorgon wants to enslave the young and strong Qin Town as cannon fodder and go to attack Zhang Hua's forces."
Li Mi has a good intelligence, and he can tell Dorgon's purpose from Dorgon's every move.
Dorgon's talent "strengthening slavery" is quite domineering, and he quickly pulls out a military servant!
As long as Dorgon captured the larger the territory, Dorgon could snowball like a snowball, gaining more and more servants, and no grass would grow anywhere he went.
However, forcibly transferring civilians in an area into minions has seriously damaged the potential of this area.
This is a talent born for war.
Dorgon transferred the young and strong Qinzhen to a servant army, and as a cannon fodder army, resulting in a sharp decline in the population of Qinzhen.
This is an important labor force.
Li Mi's face was gloomy, and she was even more dissatisfied with Dorgon's approach to making decisions.
However, Dorgon transferred the young and strong Qin Zhen into a servant army, with the purpose of helping Li Mi defeat the powerful enemy Zhang Hua, and Li Mi could only sacrifice thousands of young and strong people.
Dorgon and Ajige captured Qin Town, swept across the villages around Qin Town, constantly looting, and forced the young and strong villages into servants, and obtained tens of thousands of servants.
Dorgon and Ajige minimized the losses of their direct troops as much as possible. As for the minion army, no matter how many people were killed or injured, they were indifferent.
Li Mi and Dorgon's troops marched towards Liangjiabao, attempting to capture the important town where Zhang Hua stationed his troops.
Dorgon drove tens of thousands of servants to the north, and almost no grass was born wherever these servants went.
They only carried dry food for a few days, so they had to capture Liangjiabao within a few days.
Dorgon didn't consider what would happen after the dry food of these servants was eaten. Anyway, it would be fine to dismiss them at that time.
When Zhang Hua learned that Qin Town was conquered, he immediately recalled all the generals who attacked the bandits of Mangshan to block the troops of Wagangzhai and Dorgon at Liangjiabao.
"I came to report carefully that there were 20,000 people in Wagang Village, Dorgon and Ajige, and 9,000 troops and tens of thousands of servants, totaling about 40,000 troops."
Zhang Hua summoned Feng Yi, Deng Ai, Xu Chu, Ma Wu, Zhou Tai, Zhong Shidao and other military generals, as well as civil officials such as Fan Zhongyan and Chen Gong to discuss strategies to defeat the enemy.
Zhang Hua had 20,000 troops in Liangjiabao, only half of the opponent's troops.
However, Zhang Hua also has the strong fortifications of Liangjiabao.
Fan Zhongyan said: "We can order Gu Yong to recruit 10,000 young and strong people from Xin'an County to assist in defending Liangjiabao. In this way, Liangjiabao's troops are Wagang Village, three-quarters of Dorgon's."
"Appoint Gu Yong to recruit ten thousand towns to guard the city, and each town will temporarily recruit troops to protect himself."
"Thirty bed crossbows were deployed in Liangjiabao, and fifteen bed crossbows were deployed in Yan Town and Qing Town."
"Geng Gong led his troops to guard Yan Town, Liao Hua led his troops to guard Qing Town, and Chen Wu led his troops to guard Qihuo Army Fort."
"Let Jiang Qin not have to participate in Liangjiabao's offensive and defense, and be on standby in Xia Town."
Zhang Hua deployed troops and then prepared to fight Li Mi and Dorgon in the Liangjiabao area.
After receiving Zhang Hua's order, Gu Yong, the magistrate of Xin'an County, immediately recruited the strong men from Xin'an County and rushed to Liangjiabao.
Liang Hongyu mobilized all the rural brave men from Liangjiabao to assist in defending the city and carrying stones.
Zhang Hua built 32 stone arrow towers in Liangjiabao, with eight stone arrow towers in each direction, and one stone arrow tower can deploy dozens of crossbow soldiers.
In addition to the Stone Arrow Tower, Zhang Hua also built many wooden arrow towers.
Thirty crossbows are mainly deployed at the corners of the rammed earth wall to increase the shooting angle.
"I just want to farm well and wait for the autumn harvest. Li Mi is really uneasy."
Zhang Hua visited the city and couldn't help but sigh after Li Mi made a comeback.
Unless Zhang Hua occupyes the Luoyang Basin and guards the eight passes of Luoyang, he can farm well.
Otherwise, if Li Mi did not decide the outcome, Li Mi would not let Zhang Hua farm with peace of mind.
"The young master is kind to me. No matter what, Hongyu will guard Liangjiabao."
When Liang Hongyu saw Zhang Hua appear, she expressed her determination to Zhang Hua.
After the Liangjiabao Fortress entrusted her orphan, Liang Hongyu kept following Zhang Hua because she had nowhere to go.
"Li Mi, Dorgon seems to be a lot of people, but his true elites are only thousands more than us, so there are no need to worry too much."
Zhang Hua could feel Liang Hongyu's nervousness. After all, Li Mi and Dorgon's troops reached an astonishing 40,000, and it seemed that there were many people.
After Zhang Hua eliminated Dorgon's servant army, Li Mi actually gave the additional troops of the two banners Ajige and Dorgon.
Mulan, who was accompanying Zhang Hua, looked into the air, and a war eagle hovered and the eagle slid into the sky.
Mulan instantly understood the news conveyed by the War Eagle: "Young Master, the Wagang Army is less than ten miles away from here."
"We are finally here, try to repel this enemy army before the food is harvested."
Zhang Hua looked to the south of Liangjiabao, and now he became the defensive side.
Zhang Hua's troops stationed in Liangjiabao made Li Mi feel afraid, so Li Mi couldn't wait to capture Liangjiabao as soon as possible.
Dorgon wanted to defeat his opponent who defeated Huang Taiji and prove to Nurhaci that his ability exceeded Huang Taiji.
When civil and military officials and generals such as Chen Gong, Fan Zhongyan, Feng Yi, and Xu Chu heard that the enemy was coming, they all came to the city to watch.
A cavalry inlaid with yellow flag appeared in the sight of the Liangjiabao defenders. As the vanguard, Oboi had already arrived at the Liangjiabao!
This is the second time that Oboi has fought with Xia Town.
The Xia Zhen military general Xu Chu and Ma Wu could defeat Oboi, so Oboi was not so arrogant that he directly attacked the city with his vanguard troops.
"The cavalry in the Yellow Flag has the talent for the rapid advancement of pigs."
Zhang Hua fought with the Yellow Banner and knew the army talents of the Yellow Banner.
