Yang Fan's army finally arrived at Chaah Chong (Changchun).
Now it is just a small town with a broken-ground fence and a guard of soldiers with blue flags.
But 200 miles south of here, in Siping Bila City, a large number of Jurchens have gathered. In addition, the Hurha tribe from Meihekou, 5,000 urgently recruited bannermen from Ximu City, and 30,000
Horqin, Nenhorqin, and Inner Khalkha tribes did not have any cavalry recruited.
The scouts received news that the three sons of Abahai, the deputy leader of the Zhenglan Banner, did not dare to return to the army because they had lost their food and fodder, so they simply took four thousand cavalry to defect to Princess Hada whose fiefdom was in Kaiyuan. Princess Mangguji of Hada
She was the third daughter of Nurhaci, and she was also the political tool he used to annex most of Hada.
Mangguji was born in about 1590 and is thirty-nine years old this year. His mother is his step-concubine Fucha clan. She is called "Princess Hada" or "Hadagege".
Because she married Hada Minister Wu Ergu in the 29th year of Wanli (1601), and the marriage lasted for more than 20 years. Later, her husband died of illness, and Mangguji was transferred to Sonomudu.
Ling, Sonomu Du Ling was named "Jinong" by Huang Taiji after he married her.
Zonomuduleng, the leader of the Aohan tribe in Monan Mongolia, led his troops to submit to the Hou Jin Dynasty because of the successive plunders of the Chahar Mongols. Huang Taiji planned to resettle the Aohan tribe in the original land of the Hada tribe.
However, the Kaiyuan generation was the fiefdom of his sister Mangguji. Although her husband died, the hometown of the Hada tribe was still inherited by the widow. In order to win over the Mongolia of the Aohan tribe, Huang Taiji thought of marrying his widowed sister to Suo
Nuomuduleng, in this way, the Aohan tribe can be settled legitimately.
This poor woman was first used as a political tool by her father, as a human camera secretly monitoring the surrendered Hada tribe for Jianzhou. Later, she was used as a political tool again by her younger brother, used to marry into the Aohan tribe. No one considered it.
She felt very unhappy, so she felt very resentful.
Moreover, he and Mang Gurtai are siblings, and both siblings are quite powerful. Mang Gurtai controls the Zhenglan Banner, and Mang Gurtai controls most of the Hada Department. They are the rivals of Huang Taiji.
A threat. Therefore, Abahai's three sons came to seek refuge with their own aunt.
Yang Fan's army stopped here after occupying Chaah Chong. The weather was about to get warmer, and Liaodong also began large-scale war mobilization. They already knew it clearly. The Jurchens of the East China Sea gathered more than 40,000 people
, came from the north.
These barbarians burned, killed and looted all the way, leaving no living thing behind. Now the far north is desolate. At least a dozen known tribes have disappeared from the map. The population loss exceeds 150,000.
.
Such a large-scale savage invasion was something Jianzhou had never experienced before. They needed time to mobilize. Amin didn't realize the seriousness of the problem until he returned to Shenyang. He immediately summoned Beile, Beizi, and ministers in Shenyang
Let's discuss countermeasures.
The reason why Yang Fan did not encounter the main force of Jiannu during this period was because they were also gathering troops. Shenyang was choosing a place that was favorable to them as a battlefield.
The area in the Northeast is too large. What Jianzhou actually controls is the part of Liaoning. Jilin is a wild land. Only a few castles will be built at river crossings and traffic thoroughfares. But they are all isolated strongholds. Yang Fan all the way It took no effort to remove it.
At this time, Yang Fan's army was stationed in Chaachong and stopped advancing. One was because more than 10,000 Jurchens from the Liaodong Mountains had gathered in Wula City in Jilin (today's Jilin City) to the east, posing a flank threat. The other was that Even in Siping Bila (today's Siping City), there are more and more signs that Amin seems to want to fight Yang Fan here.
Because this is the northern border of Jianzhou’s actual control. Fighting here means to defend the enemy from the country. Siping’s flat terrain is particularly suitable for cavalry assaults. A large number of Mongolians in Shuangliao, a hundred miles to the west, have received orders to gather. .Liaoyuan in the east also has a large number of Jurchens who are Qilin people gathered.
If the Jurchens from the East China Sea come south to start a battle here, the retreat may be blocked by Jilin Ula's soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses of Shuangliao and Liaoyuan will outflank them. This is a very favorable location for a decisive battle.
Yang Fan was sitting cross-legged on the floor, frowning at the pocket array, thinking about countermeasures in his mind.
Lin Yueru, Xiao Niangpi and the others were also sitting around the map. Lin Yueru was reading the latest telegram.
"Well, you said Abahai's three sons took four thousand cavalry and defected to Mangguji." Yang Fan raised his head and asked.
"Yes, they were raided by Ma Xi's cavalry and lost their food and fodder. Originally, their Ama was affiliated with Mang Gurtai, but now that such a big thing happened, they were afraid of being imprisoned by Huang Taiji, so they simply ran away. Go and drive. Yuancheng went to join their aunt Mang Guji." Lin Yueru explained.
Yang Fan continued to ask: "Didn't Mangguji's husband die? Is Princess Kaiyuan a widow now?"
The young lady smiled and said: "Master, all your news is from the old calendar. Now she has scored twice, and she is married to the minister of the Aohan Department, Zonomuduleng. Now Kaiyuan has become the territory of the Aohan Department. .”
Yang Fan suddenly became interested, because he knew very well that people who hold power and territory, regardless of gender, are very obsessed with power. Now that she has married a new husband on the surface, it is equivalent to Huang Taiji taking her territory and the people of the Hada tribe. Sold to Zonomuduleng of the Aohan tribe.
This is a taboo and will definitely arouse hatred.
Huang Taiji wanted to recruit the Aohan tribe, but Mangguji didn't care. But if you used her territory and slaves as a dowry and gave them to Zonomu Duling of the Aohan tribe, this would be suspected of killing someone with a borrowed knife. After all, everyone knows, The step-concubine Fu Chagundai and Huang Taiji's biological mother Yehenala didn't deal with them. And Mang Gurtai and Mang Guji were biological siblings.
One of them is one of the four Baylors and controls the Zhenglan Banner. The other is Princess Hada, who controls Kaiyuan City and the surrounding Hada territory and people. This is a great threat to Huang Taiji. Huang Taiji is taking advantage of this. Mang Gurtai was captured and his life and death were unknown. Mang Gurtai also set up a plot.
"How is she doing in her new family?" Yang Fan asked playfully.
"What a fart! It's worse than life." Xiao Niangpi curled her lips and said. This kind of gossip is a topic that ladies in the house talk about. Therefore, Yang Fan didn't pay attention to this kind of information at all. He didn't care about such trivial things.
Lack of interest.
"Nomu Duleng is the winner. This big scumbag led his troops into the place where Hada tribe lives through marriage. It is equivalent to occupying this territory. He is the winner. But Huang Taiji has always been concerned about Nomu Duleng.
Don't worry. Because they originally surrendered to Lin Dan Khan. After fighting for a year last year, Lin Dan Khan suffered heavy losses and they surrendered when they had no choice but to surrender." Lin Yueru said.
