"As the wings of the fierce falcon, as the guard of the chariot, as the resolute wise man, as the white room of the mountain, as the whole-hearted protector, etc." ("Mongolian Rhubarb Book").
Ordos, one of the 60,000 households in Mongolia, originated from the loyal Ordo guard force of the Mongolian Khan. It was originally responsible for guarding the relics and palaces of Genghis Khan. It moved to Hetao during the Chenghua period. Now it lives surrounded by the Yellow River and the Great Wall, "
The Yellow River is on three sides and the city is on the other."
In 1635, he defected to the Hou Jin Dynasty. In the sixth year of Shunzhi (1649), the Qing government organized the Ordos tribe into the six banners of the Yike Zhao League: the left middle flag, the left front flag, the left rear flag, the right middle flag, the right front flag, and the right rear flag.
.
In Baichengzi (Chahan City) of the Right Front Banner, E Fuchen is convening the banner leaders as the leader of the alliance to discuss matters. He is a descendant of the Jin family. He was a member of the Ordos tribe in the past and had a distinguished status. He was the one who led the banner back then.
The Qing of the Ordos tribe was named Zasak, the left-wing center banner of the Yikezhao League, the leader of the Yikezhao League, and the king of Duoluo County.
"I have just received an order from the imperial court, instructing our Ordos Department to send troops to assist Tuhai Duxian in encircling and suppressing the rebels in Yulin. Let's all discuss whether these troops should be sent out or not?"
Although the twenty-four tribes of Monan Mongolia were organized into banners by the Qing court, they still maintained a great deal of independence. Now that the Qing court was declining, many tribes gradually began to disobey orders. Even the Horqin tribe, the in-laws of the Manchus, were somewhat disobedient.
It's not moving anymore. So E Phochen wants to discuss it with the flag owners.
"Your Majesty, as a Manchu and Mongolian family, we have received titles from the Qing Dynasty, so these troops should be sent out." Belshakza, Elinqin, and Seleng are pro-Manchu factions in the tribe and want to send out troops.
"Your Majesty, what does the war between the Ming and Qing dynasties have to do with us in Mongolia? The Ming army is powerful now. If we help the Qing, we may cause trouble in the future. It is better to excuse the lack of food and not help each other." Beile Guludai Qingshandan, Xiaozhamu
They have always been the Mongolian faction. They are not stupid. Seeing that the Ming army is strong, they are not willing to take chestnuts from the fire of the Qing court.
Seeing that the Six Banners were not unanimous in their opinions, E Fuchen was hesitant. He was no longer the decisive young man who led the tribe to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. He was getting older and naturally he was hesitant in doing things.
"Eqi Ge (ancient Mongolian: father), the son thought that we should send troops. The Qing Dynasty is close, the Ming Dynasty is far away, and winter will come in a few months, so it is just right to go to Yulin to plunder in the name of aiding the suppression.
As for the Ming army coming over in the future, we can just carry the Qing and surrender to the Ming," Beizi Batu said.
E Phochen looked at Batu and was very pleased. Among the disciples, only Batu was both civil and military, and he had a successor. He nodded and said: "What Batu said makes sense, so let's do it."
The banner owners of each banner went back one after another to recruit bannermen, and soon they recruited 3,500 soldiers and horses.
Efuchen led his army from Ixibal, crossed the Great Wall, captured Longzhou City and Bailuo City, and looted the two cities.
At this time, Zhu Long had been defeated by Tuhai, and many prefectures and counties had no troops to garrison. He became more and more courageous, and even went to Anding County, Yan'an Prefecture, and plundered all the people and supplies before returning them. He plundered a total of 20,000 people.
Forced all the way north, less than 10,000 people actually made it to the Loop alive.
The Ordos tribe has become rich. Each banner has been assigned more than a thousand slaves, and has also grabbed a lot of supplies for the winter. There is no need to worry about this winter.
The local official in Yansui quit, and the complaint letter was sent to Tuhai like snowflakes. Tuhai sighed and suppressed the complaint letter. If you want the Mongols to fight for you, you can't do it without giving them enough benefits. Xiu Shu sent a letter to
Not only did E Luochen not mention the robbery, but he praised E Luochen's loyalty to the Qing court and asked him to send troops again to help him attack the Three Guards of Ningxia.
It made E Fuchen feel embarrassed. He burned, killed and robbed himself in Yansui. Instead of blaming him, Du Xian praised him. It would be really embarrassing if he did not contribute to the Qing Dynasty! What's more, he could do it again.
Grab it once.
Having tasted the sweetness, the Ordos tribe dispatched more troops this time, a total of five thousand people, to Ningxia.
??
An honored guest came to Shigou City, the vanguard of Ningxia, Gao Mingzhan, the governor of Shaanxi Province in the Ming Dynasty. This man was originally the governor of Sichuan in the Qing Dynasty, and he continued to be the governor after returning to the Ming Dynasty. Fan Youxian sent him to Ningxia Town in order to strengthen his control over the Shaanxi rebels.
.
"Visit Gaofutai". When I heard that the imperial court had sent high officials, Zhou Shimin, Sun Chongya, Zhao Guangyin, Gao Wang, and Zhu Yingkui suddenly had a backbone and came to visit one after another.
Gao Mingzhan had been a high official for many years, and he still had the skills to control his subordinates. He was not empty-handed, and he brought a lot of weapons, food, and wages. As soon as he arrived, he distributed food and wages to the generals, greeted them with greetings, and made everyone feel warm.<
/p>
While they were enjoying themselves, the scouts came to report: The army of Tuhai, the governor of the three sides of the Qing Dynasty, had arrived at Dingbian City and was approaching Ningxia; the three thousand cavalry of Du Min, the deputy governor of Xi'an, had arrived at Tiezhuquan, the rear guard of Ningxia, threatening Shigou City; Mongolia's Ordos
The troops also crossed the Great Wall and approached the Acropolis of Ningxia.
Governor Gao panicked. He was notoriously timid, otherwise he would not have surrendered to the Qing Dynasty first and then the Ming Dynasty. He finally calmed down and asked Zhou Shimin, "Vice General Zhou, how do you think we should respond?"<
/p>
At this time, Zhou Shimin was in command of Jiazhou, Fushi, Yulin, and Ningxia Sanwei. He had a very good reputation, so naturally he had to ask his opinion first.
Governor Gao originally thought that Zhou Daxia would say something about a bloody battle in Ningxia, but Zhou Shimin said eight words: "The general thinks that he can't defeat him, so let's go!"
What! Escape? Gao Mingzhan was overjoyed when he heard this. This coincided with his own. However, even if the governor wants to leave, he must have a reason. He asked Zhou Shimin with a kind face, "Vice General Zhou said that he can't escape.
Where to go?"
"The final general thought that the main forces of the Qing army in Pingliang Prefecture and Qingyang Prefecture had been transferred south and could be easily defeated. And by entering Fengxiang from Pingliang, they can be connected with Hanzhong and can receive support from the general at any time."
When Zhou Shimin mentioned Fan Youxian, Gao Mingzhan felt confident and nodded repeatedly.
??
"These thieves have escaped again! It's really annoying." Biliktu, deputy commander of the Mongolian capital of Zhenglan Banner, stamped his feet in anger.
"Zhang Jing doesn't need to worry. Our army has strong soldiers and horses, and there are many cavalry. It will be a matter of time to destroy them." Tuhai smiled slightly, with a calm and calm face. He now has sufficient troops. In addition to his headquarters, there are also Biliketu and Hazan.
, Dumin's various tribes, if the Ordos Mongolian soldiers are included, the number will be close to 30,000.
"Governor Xian, Ningxia's capital secretary urgently reports that the king of Duoluo County, Eluochen, has sent troops to plunder Yanchi City." The two of them were discussing, and their confidants came to report.
After hearing this, Tu Hai lost his composure and calmness just now, the veins in his arms were exposed, and the chair creaked when he squeezed. These Mongolians were so wanton, they robbed and robbed! How can they explain to the emperor if they don't make military exploits?
He gritted his teeth and said, "Instruct Prince Duoluo to immediately go south to pursue the rebels."
"嗻", the confidant is ready to come out.
"Come back," Tu Hai called, "and give a generous gift to Prince Duoluo for you."
Yanchi City, as its name suggests, has salt, with dozens of large and small natural salt lakes.
Eluochen, the king of Duoluo County, watched with pleasure as his subordinates moved bags of salt onto the carriage. Salt is a good thing and is very valuable! This time it was another fruitful harvest!
"Tell the boys to move quickly, move people and property as quickly as possible!"
With this order, the warriors of Ordos accelerated their robbery, quickly loaded their belongings into trucks, tied them into strings with ropes, and escorted them back to the grassland to be slaves.
Yes, go back to the grassland! The warriors of Ordos are here to steal things, not to fight for the Manchus.
"Your Majesty, the envoy from Tuhai is here," Belshakza reported to Ephoschen.
E Luochen looked impatient and "called in."
"Prince Duoluo, I have brought the military order of Du Xian, please go south immediately to pursue the rebels."
"Military order?"
E Phochen sneered, Tu Hai was so arrogant, did he really think that the Ordos tribe was his subordinate? He said lazily: "Please tell Du Xian that our son has been on an expedition for a long time and is ready to return to the grassland." He really wanted to leave.
, I want to go home after catching enough.
"Your Majesty, wait a minute, the Governor has a gift for you." The envoy was not in a hurry.
"Big gift?"
E Fuchen became interested, his eyes flashed red, "Bring it in quickly, I want to see what a big gift it is!"
A large gift was delivered, all containing letters of complaint from officials from various places. On a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, the Ordos tribe robbed a certain county, how many people were robbed, etc.
E Phochen's back gradually became wet with sweat as he read these letters.
