Chapter 36 Gioro
"If we can't personally set foot on the land of Jianzhou before leaving, and take a look, our family will be sorry to the emperor and the Ming Dynasty!"
Eunuch Wei, who was devoted to serving the country with unparalleled loyalty and responsibility, took loyalty as his mission, did his own way, and personally led two hundred warriors, each with two horses to lay the Gushan Fort in Jianzhou in the north.
This is the first time that the Ming army entered the actual control area of Jianzhou since the eleventh year of Wanli. Before that, the large-scale in-depth expansion of the Ming army into Jianzhou was more than 100 years ago during the Chenghua period.
In addition to wanting to take a look, the reason for going deeper is that Eunuch Wei feels that this Kuan Dian battle is not exciting enough and does not cause much damage to Jianzhou.
After all, it took only seven years for Jianzhou to actually occupy Kuandian Liubao and carry out actual colonial operations, and neither population nor output is enough to compare with the "old area" of Jianzhou.
If you can come to Jianzhou’s old nest for that time, the effect will definitely be much better than that of the wide laying.
Eunuch Wei only brought two hundred elite soldiers during this trip, so it was not a large-scale one.
He did not dare to go to Heituara, so the route he formulated was basically to move along the side walls of Kuandi and Jianzhou, that is, to sneak into Jianzhou from Gushan Fort in the northeast of Kuandi, and then go east along Gushan Fort, reaching the Yalu River for more than 200 miles, and then take the naval ships of the Ming Dynasty imperial army to go downstream to Yizhou.
The advantage of having few people is that it moves quickly and makes it easy to transfer. If Jianzhou is compared to an elephant, then the team of these two hundred people is an ant, and can crawl on the elephant as you like.
That being said, Eunuch Wei will definitely not regard himself as an ant. He thinks he is a sharp knife stabbed Nurhaci in his body.
Regarding the purpose of this in-depth study, he emphasized that it is just a word "swallow".
"If the strong ones are killed, the old and the childish ones are destroyed. If the earth collapses and the fire is destroyed, it will still collapse and the ice is destroyed. If the hidden ones are hidden ones, the pigs are buried in their houses, the holes are blocked and the nests are empty. The border of a hundred miles is depressed."
That is, no grass grows here.
This is destined to be particularly bloody in the side wall sweeping operation.
On the 28th, Eunuch Wei led his troops to destroy Gushan Fort, killed more than 40 guards, and set fire to more than 100 houses. More than 300 Jurchen soldiers and civilians either hung beams and committed suicide or jumped into the well and jumped into the river. All the Jurchens and others were ordered to be chopped off by Eunuch Wei, and they were able to survive.
When the Ming army left, they set fires in the fort and filled the wells with filth, causing Jianzhou's more than 20 years of operation in Gushan Fort to be destroyed.
This made the eleven Niulu, a Jianzhou Inlaid Red Banner who came from Heituara after hearing the news, unable to obtain the food supply from Gushan Fort, and there was not even a place to rest. It severely slowed down the speed of the troops and could not join forces with Zhenglan Banner to pursue the Ming army retreating south.
The leader of the Red Flag Arbatai who arrived later was furious and generals, Jialaezhen and three sect leaders, were executed on the spot, but it was useless.
The villages near Gushan Fort were all burned by the Ming army. The villagers fled into the mountains. It took several days for Jianzhou soldiers to find the escaped person from the mountains. Later, they found that a Ming cavalry had gone east from Gushan Fort.
Abatai was angry that the Ming army had actually entered Jianzhou to kill and set fire. In anger, he led his troops to pursue him. However, the Ming army had been away for several days, and he led his troops to chase him for a long time. Except for seeing the villages burned by the Ming army, there were no more people.
………
Eunuch Wei was in a very good mood. In a few days, he captured seven or eight places in Jianzhou Fortress and killed more than a thousand Jurchens. He really had a brilliant record.
It should be noted that during the Chenghua period, the general Wu Jingbo and Zhao Fu, who called 30,000 troops and marched in three directions with the Korean army. After more than a month of suppression, he only destroyed more than a thousand Jurchens and rescued more than a thousand Han people who were captured. With this record, it is also called a great victory.
Therefore, even if you go home now, including Kuan Dian’s capture, let alone Wu Jing Bo Zhao Fu, even if Li Chengliang’s decades of victory in Liaodong may not be much more than Eunuch Wei.
If the emperor doesn’t give him a promotion, he has to raise his grade and get a fourth-level red robe to wear.
When Eunuch Wei was in a good mood, he became interested in poetry. The poem says: "Changbai Mountain, the mountain is white. There are girls in Changbai Mountain, and there is someone above the girls. They will move when they scream, and they won't scream."
After reciting the poem, Ding Xiaogong and others rode their horses to drive more than 100 captured Jurchens to the river. The drowned Jurchen corpses made a small river unable to flow.
After finishing this matter, Eunuch Wei turned over and ran towards the next target.
My father-in-law didn't know what his next goal was, and the two Jurchen guides around him couldn't tell me either.
So, when the target was discovered, my father-in-law was surprised because the target was a big fish.
How big is this fish?
The Jurchen city ahead is called Jueluo City. The leader is a man named Baoshi. He has a surname called Aisin Jueluo.
In terms of generation, Baoshi is Nurhaci's uncle Baoshi, who is the uncle of Nurhaci's father Takshi, his grandfather Juechang'an's brother, and his great-grandfather Fuman's youngest son.
If we use the pseudo-Qing period, this treasure is actually the red belt of the Aisin Gioro clan.
Baoshi is very smart and likes wealth, so he tries every means to obtain the "elite" issued by the Ming Dynasty so that he can receive the "reward" from the imperial officials in the city of Ma, Liaodong, and live in the neighboring place, change salt and rice, and ask for wine and food.
It can be said that among the six brothers, Baoshi is the person who visited the city of Liaodong, except Juechang'an. Unlike his nephew, Nurhaci, who has always regarded unifying the Jurchens as his goal, how to get money is Baoshi's life goal. Therefore, fraud and violence are Baoshi's biggest means of making a living in his life, and Baoshi especially likes "kidnapping". In the past decades, he kidnapped no less than two thousand Han people from the Ming Dynasty.
Before Li Chengliang gave up on Kuandian Liubao, the main enemy of Liubao was that he liked to rob Baoshi who tied people, rather than Nurhaci who was further away.
In a certain way, Baoshi was dissatisfied with his nephew, because Nurhaci controlled Liubao, which prevented him from robbing Liubao.
Later, in order to prevent his uncle from being "sad", Nurhaci specially gave seven hundred Han people Aha to his uncle. In this way, Baoshi felt a little more comfortable.
However, Baoshi is older, so he should be the longest-lived old man in the Jurchens. He is now 71 years old. He is old and doesn't like to move. His descendants are responsible for the affairs of Jueluo City.
As his nephew Nurhaci's power grew stronger and stronger, Baoshi also knew that after he left, it would be impossible for Jueluo City to maintain "independence" nature. Therefore, in recent years, he also intends to let his descendants go to Heituara to be kind to Nurhaci, thinking that after he left, his nephew would be better for his descendants.
Nurhaci obviously knew his uncle's plan, so he was very good for Baoshi's descendants, especially Baoshi's grandson, his cousin, Dechang, and placed him in Zhengbai Banner as Jiala Ezhen.
After fighting against Ula, because the weather was getting hot, Dechang asked his cousin for "off" and returned to Jueluo City to escape the summer heat. He came back five days ago. After he came back, he brought people all day long either to hunt in the forest or fishing on the river, which was very happy.
