"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" A big knife spits out messages like a white snake and hisses through the wind; it also looks like a dragon shuttle, walking in all directions.
The swordsman is handsome, and the man who wields the sword is even more handsome.
This man is about thirty years old, with a tall figure, bronze complexion, clear and deep contours, and sharp black eyes hidden under his slanting sword eyebrows, like an eagle in the night, cold, aloof, and powerful, Alone and independent, he exudes an aura of disdain for the world.
Even though his head is bald, with only a small bunch of thin braids hanging down in the center of his head, it does not affect his beauty at all, but adds a bit of unique evil charm to him.
Aixinjueluo Bolo is dancing with the sword, expressing his pain in the skill of the sword. Three months ago, he was appointed by the regent Dorgon as the general in the southern expedition, replacing Pingnan general Leke Dehun in the southern Ming Dynasty.
At first, Bolo was very happy. The royal family in Manchuria valued military merit most. Which dragon son and grandson did not fight in the north and south in his teens? As the grandson of Taizu Nurhaci and the son of Raoyu County King Abatai, Bolo also No exception. At the age of fourteen, he followed his father to conquer the Ming Dynasty in the south and Mongolia in the west. He participated in the Songjin Battle, defeated Li Zicheng, destroyed Hongguang, and made many military exploits. The expedition to the Southern Ming Dynasty was a trivial matter.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the army arrived in Hangzhou, they received news that the person he respected most in his life, King Abatai of Raoyu County, had died of illness.
Is there anything more painful than being unable to fulfill your filial piety by your father's death?
"You boy, fight well this time on the expedition, don't embarrass me!" Before the expedition, Ama's words of encouragement to herself, holding on to her sick body, still rang in her ears. I didn't expect that this would be a farewell forever!
Thinking of his own Amma, Bolo's knife danced very fast.
My own Ama has had a rough life! In terms of military achievements, she is not inferior to Huang Taiji, Daishan, and Dorgon, but because she was born to a concubine, no matter how great her achievements are, she cannot be crowned king.
Huang Taiji was jealous of Amma. During the family banquet, he actually ranked some juniors in front of Amma on the grounds that Amma was just Belle and not the king. Amma felt deeply ashamed and did not want to attend the banquet.
"When I fight, I wear armor and go out; when I hunt, I go with a bow and arrow; when I go to a banquet, I feel shameful and sit among my children." Bolo remembers the anger when Amma said this.
It wasn't until Dorgon became the regent that Amma turned over and became the county king.
Amma admired the regent the most and often said to herself: "Your fourteenth uncle is the great hero of the Manchu people. He has a true temperament and dares to do something!"
The regent also admired Amma the most, and often told people: "Seventh brother is a tiger general, no one can beat his tiger claws!"
Bolo knows that Amma’s biggest wish in this life is to be crowned a prince, and she should also be a prince based on her military merits! It’s a pity that it turned out to be a pity!
"Ama! My son will definitely give you a good reputation, make more military exploits, and be crowned a prince as soon as possible!"
Bolo thought about his thoughts, and the knife danced faster and faster. Finally, he put the knife in his hand and remained motionless.
"Master Beizi is good at swordsmanship!" Dulde, the commander of the guard, waited for a long time. When he saw Bolo put away his sword, he hurried over to flatter him.
Bolo smiled. When he smiled, the curvature of the corners of his mouth was quite perfect. It seemed that the sun could suddenly push away the darkness from the clouds and shine in all at once, gentle and calm. Some people are born with a noble and extraordinary temperament, which makes them
The subordinates were subdued without knowing it and were willing to die.
"You slave, look at how happy you are, is there any happy news?"
"Nothing can be hidden from Mr. Bei's discerning eye." Duld smiled and said seriously: "The water in the Qiantang River has receded."
??
The full name of Qiantang River is "Zhejiang", also known as "Zhejiang". The river is very fast and extremely difficult to cross. The tide of Qiantang River is known as "the best tide in the world".
The Lu supervisory government of the Southern Ming Dynasty relied on the natural dangers of the Qiantang River to separatize eastern Zhejiang. The Manchus and Qing Dynasties were unable to do anything to them.
At this time, Lu Supervisor Zhu Yihai no longer had the ambitions of last year. Last year, in order to overwhelm Emperor Longwu and Zhu Hengjia in terms of momentum, Zhu Yihai formulated the strategic goal of taking Hangzhou first, then attacking Nanjing, and worshiping the Xiaoling Mausoleum. As a result, both attacks on Hangzhou were defeated.
The Qing army was severely defeated. Now he no longer had the courage to attack Hangzhou. He just wanted to rely on the natural danger of the Qiantang River to defend his territory in eastern Zhejiang.
Zhu Yihai sent Fang Guoan, the most powerful general under his command, to station at the Qiantang River defense line, and ordered Wang Zhiren of the Navy to be ready to support Fang Guoan at any time. He thought he was impregnable.
However, there is no city that cannot be conquered and no river that cannot be crossed.
In the summer of the 19th year of Chongzhen's reign, there was a long drought in Zhejiang, and the Qiantang River dried up and flowed thinly. The Qing army saw someone bathing in the river, and the water was no deeper than a horse's belly.
??
In Bolo's Chinese army commander's tent, stars gathered together.
The deputy commander-in-chief, Zhenghuang Banner, Gushan Erzhen Guarjia Turai, participated in the Battle of Daling River, the Battle of Songjin, the Battle of Shanhaiguan, and the Battle of Yishi. He captured Tongguan from Duduo and captured Emperor Hongguang, with outstanding military exploits.
In terms of qualifications, Tu Lai should be the head coach. It's a pity that he didn't sit in the right position. Back then, Hauge and Dorgon were fighting for power. Tu Lai, Sony and Ao Bai were all smiting Dorgon. Now Dorgon is in charge.
If you have power, how can you have something to rely on? It's not bad to work for a deputy commander.
The commanders of the guard, Azig, Nikan, and Durde, are all fierce generals.
The Hujun is the most elite force of the Manchus, with only a few hundred people per banner. It was first called Baya La Camp, then renamed Baya Lahu, and then renamed Hujun Camp.
Seeing that all the generals had arrived, Bolo smiled: "The water in the Qiantang River has receded, and there is no natural danger. Let's discuss how to advance?"
Nikan, who was not yet thirty this year, had an impatient temper and shouted loudly after hearing this: "What's the point of discussing this God-given opportunity? Just go directly along the Liuhe Pagoda and attack Shaoxing from Fuyang."
Azig, Durde and others all agreed, but the veteran Tu Lai remained silent.
Bolo valued Tulai very much and asked him gently: "Well, what's your opinion?"
Decades of war have exhausted Tu Lai's life. Dorgon knew that Tu Lai was seriously ill, but he ordered him to join the war. The meaning of this was very obvious. But for a general who had fought all his life, the corpse was wrapped in horse leather.
, is also an honor!
Tu Lai coughed twice and gasped: "The land division of the Ming army is not to be feared, but the navy is to be feared! Please lead the commander-in-chief to lead the main force to attack Shaoxing from Liuhe Pagoda, Fuyang, and Yanzhou; I will lead a partial division.
Seize the Biezi Gate and prevent its naval forces from coming to rescue.
Bolo nodded. All the generals of the older generation are good at fighting. This Tu Lai's vision is really vicious and cunning! Biezimen is located at the mouth of the Qiantang River. If they seize this place, the Ming Navy Navy Wang Zhiren's Department will not be able to rescue it.
Fang Guoan is safe.
Bolo was a little worried about Tu Lai's physical condition: "I'm really ill, why don't I rest in the rear and I send Nikan to attack Biezimen?"
Unexpectedly, Tu Lai was furious when he heard this and stood up: "When I was thirteen years old, I went on an expedition from Taizu and Emperor Taizong. I only knew that I had a country, but I didn't know that I was in trouble!"
On May 25, the 19th year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, Boluo led the Eight Banners with 4,000 people, and Wusong's general Li Chengdong's 5,000 troops. The other 6,000 soldiers who surrendered from the previous Ming Dynasty, a total of 15,000 people, marched along the Liuhe Pagoda, Fuyang.
Yanzhou attacked Shaoxing; he ordered Gushan Ezhentu Lai to lead 2,000 Mongolian Eight Banners and 3,000 troops from the Ming Dynasty to attack Biezimen.
??
In summer, it’s so hot on both sides of the Qiantang River that people’s hearts are smoking.
On the night of the 25th, there was silence. Groups of Qing troops waded across the Qiantang River from the shallow water.
In ancient times, because night blindness was common, night battles were rare. Aixinjueluo Bolo took advantage of this to surprise the Ming army at night.
He ordered the soldiers to lead their horses across the river, and the men behind them held the tails of the horses in front of them, and crossed to the other side one by one.
After crossing the river, the veterans of the Eight Banners who had experienced hundreds of battles were not in a hurry to get on their horses. Instead, they led the horses slowly to save power. When they arrived not far from the Ming army camp, the Qing army lit torches and formed a formation.
Kill the Ming army.
At the gate of the camp, the Qing army dismounted and moved away from the deer village. Several riders threw ropes and tied the gate. The horses pulled hard and the gate collapsed. The Ming army guarding the gate was about to call the police when rows of arrows flew and they fell to the ground.
When the Eight Banners soldiers entered the camp, they cut down the soldiers when they saw them. They killed the generals when they encountered them. They set fire everywhere and screamed for death. They were very experienced in hedging the camp. When they entered the Ming army's camp, they did not fight randomly, but searched for them.
The assembled Ming army attacked and the Ming army was unable to form a formation.
The Eight Banners men left the task of chasing down the panicked stragglers to the traitor troops. Strange to say, these surrendered troops were as fearful of the enemy as tigers before they surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and were defeated in a single battle; but after surrendering to the Qing army, they killed their own people
Come, but like a wolf or a tiger.
Soon, Lu Jianguo's 30,000 troops deployed along the Qiantang River were attacked by 15,000 Qing troops. They lost their troops and generals and fled one after another.
The Tulai Division of the Qing Army also attacked Biezimen with the assistance of the "Navy Division".
These so-called "water divisions" were all improvised small boats. Although the Qiantang River had receded, Biezimen was located at the mouth of the sea, and the sea was still turbulent. The Ming army did not expect that the Qing army would dare to sneak across here, so they did not take precautions. Next, he was captured by the Qing army.
After Tu Lai occupied Biezimen, he immediately created water barriers on the waterway. Wang Zhiren, the navy commander of the Ming Dynasty, came to help, but was unable to enter the Qiantang River and had to retreat to Ningbo.
On the evening of May 29th, Lu Supervisor Zhu Yihai heard that the Qing army was approaching Shaoxing, and he fled to the sea in panic by boat under the escort of Zhang Mingzhen and others.
Lu Jianguo went sailing.
??
The time has come and gone, and the pictures are drawn one by one.
In critical moments, personal character can best be seen!
The most powerful minister of Lu Jianguo, Fang Guo'an, the Duke of Yue, led 500 horsemen and 7,000 infantry to surrender without a fight. Those who followed him to surrender to the Qing Dynasty were Xinjian Bowang Yetai, cabinet scholar Fang Fengnian, Xie Sanbin, Song Zhipu, and the Minister of Libu. Zhou Zuo of the Shang Dynasty, Shao Fuzhong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, Su Zhuang, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Ruan Dacheng, Jiang Yihong, etc., the generals include Chen Xueguan and other eighteen people, and countless deputy generals and below.
Just surrender, there is still a seller.
The rebel general Zhang Guozhu intercepted the family members of Lu Jianguo's palace, and the prince sent them to Hangzhou to be rewarded.
It’s not unusual for sellers to do so, and some even kill each other.
Prince Zhiren of Xingguo heard that Fang Guoan surrendered and knew that the situation was over. He cried and said: "Fang Guoan is the one who ruined the world. Tens of thousands of enemy soldiers were stationed on the north bank and crossed over in a sudden. How can a lone army meet the enemy? The only thing is to die."
He led some soldiers to board hundreds of ships and sailed from Jiaomen to Zhoushan with a large amount of baggage, intending to join forces with Huang Binqing, a Suppressor conferred by Emperor Longwu.
Unexpectedly, Huang Binqing feared the Qing soldiers like tigers, but treated his own people like wolves. When he saw Wang Zhiren bringing hundreds of ships of money and food, he became coveted. Pretending to join forces with Wang Zhiren, he suddenly attacked Wang Zhiren and seized his food and wages.
Wang Zhiren never expected that he would be plotted against by his own people. He was so sad and angry that he wanted to die for his country.
He first scuttled his family's boat, and all ninety-three members of his family drowned in the sea. Then he also threw the imperial edict issued by Lu Jianguo into the sea, leaving only one big ship for himself. He set up flags, preached and sailed straight Wusong River Estuary.
"Sir, where are we going?"
"Go to Nanjing and find Hong Chengchou. My whole family died for the Ming Dynasty, and we must not let the world know about it!" Wang Zhiren said with tears.
There are hundreds of kinds of people, each with his own way of living. Some are traitors, and some are martyrs.
Zhang Guowei, the bachelor of the university, Yu Huang, the minister of the Ministry of War, Chen Hanhui, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Chen Qianfu, the young minister of Dali Temple, etc. committed suicide and martyred their country.
The Qing troops approached Jinhua, and Zhu Dadian, the great scholar in charge of the division, defended Jinhua and vowed not to surrender.
Zhu Dadian served as the governor of water transportation in the Chongzhen Dynasty, and his official reputation was very bad. One word: greed! He made a lot of money. However, Zhu Dadian was very good to the fellow Jinhua people. He only coveted money from the treasury, not his own fellow villagers.
p>
The Qing army approached Jinhua, and the Jinhua people asked Zhu Dadian for advice. There was no way, he was the most powerful official.
Zhu Dadian slapped the table: "What's there to discuss? Do you want to keep the money and rat tail to worship your ancestors? I only have two words: defend the city!"
Seeing that Zhu Dadian was so bloody, the people of Jinhua followed him one after another and recruited ten thousand militiamen to defend Jinhua. The traitor Ruan Dacheng wrote a letter to recruit Zhu Dadian to surrender, and Zhu Dadian broke the letter and killed the envoy.
On June 23, General Boluo of the Qing Dynasty's Southern Campaign, and Zhang Chengren, Governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, led 30,000 Manchu and Han troops to surround Jinhua. The Ming army resisted tenaciously for more than a month under the command of Zhu Dadian, until Boluo was transferred from Hangzhou.
Red cannon, Jinhua was captured.
Zhu Dadian brought his family and trusted generals to the Gunpowder Bureau, tied a rope to the gunpowder barrel, lit the fuse, and with a bang, he became a hero. Before his death, he sighed: "I will never let down the Ming Dynasty!"
When the catastrophe was approaching, many officials with good reputations were demoted to the Qing Dynasty. However, Zhu Dadian, who was known for his greed, was able to break up his family to relieve the disaster and be loyal to the country. It cannot but be said to be an irony. What is even more ironic is that the two major officials of Lu Supervisory State
The regular army, Fang Guoan surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and Wang Zhiren was killed by his own people. The ones who resisted the most resolutely were these militiamen and martyrs.
"Master Bei, these unruly people are really abominable! I'm asking for a massacre of the city." Dulde, the commander of the Qing Protectorate, was indignant.
The Qing army suffered heavy casualties in Jinhua, and Durde wanted to take revenge. This is also an old rule of the Manchus. When encountering a city with fierce resistance, it must be massacred to vent its anger.
"Go," Bolo said calmly, as if he was recounting a trivial matter. This young handsome man with a gentle and elegant appearance revealed another side of his cruel and vicious character.
??
In the summer at the Wusong River Estuary, the sea was calm, and a large ship sailed straight into the Yangtze River with its sails spread.
"Stop, who is coming?" the Qing army sentry boat patrol patrolling the river shouted.
"I am the Duke of Xingguo in the Ming Dynasty, and the commander-in-chief of Ningshao, Wang Zhiren."
Seeing Wang Zhiren's calm look, the junior high school thought it was another high-ranking official who came to surrender. After the Lu Jianguo voyage, there was an endless stream of former Ming officials who surrendered. The junior high school got used to it, so they quickly reported it to Wu Song's commander-in-chief Li Chengdong.
Li Chengdong did not dare to neglect and immediately transferred him to Nanjing to recruit Jiangnan University scholar Hong Chengchou.
Hong Chengchou was a famous traitor throughout history and a great intellectual with a Jinshi background.
As a literate traitor, Hong Chou was most taboo about others calling him a traitor. How can he prevent scholars from calling him a traitor? Academician Hong came up with a good idea: drag everyone into being a traitor.
We are all considered traitors and officials of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so you are embarrassed to call me Hong Chengchou alone, right?
Therefore, as long as they were former Ming officials who came to Hong Chengchou to seek an official position, Hong Chengchou would approve them, and they would often give generous offers to the officials. Those who wanted to be county magistrates were given a magistrate; , the number of traitors is increasing. Academician Hong Da secretly rejoices: The world is as black as crows, and I am not the only one who will be infamy for thousands of years!
Hearing that another former Ming official had surrendered, Hong Chengchou was overjoyed and immediately received him.
"Nine good brothers, you have given up the dark side and turned to the bright side. Congratulations!" Hong Chengchou called Wang Zhiren affectionately to show his affection.
Unexpectedly, Wang Zhiren made a generous statement: "Xueshi Hong has misunderstood. I am the commander-in-chief of the former dynasty. I shall die when the country is destroyed. I may be buried in a whale salamander. My death is unknown. There will be no evidence for future generations, so I came to surrender and wanted to die in the open." Ear!"
When Hong Chengchou heard this, he was ashamed and angry: You want me to kill you? What a beautiful idea! If I kill you, you will be famous in history, and I will be infamy for thousands of years? I will not do such a stupid thing! Not only will I not kill you, but I will also persuade you to surrender. , become a traitor with me, and together we will be infamous all over the world!
A funny scene appeared. Wang Zhiren wanted to die, but Hong Chengchou refused to kill him. Instead, he kept urging him to surrender.
Wang Zhiren was anxious. His whole family had died for the Ming Dynasty. He had survived until now because he wanted his family's deeds to be known to future generations. His death was not in vain! He didn't expect Hong Chengchou
This guy is so vicious that he doesn’t even want to kill himself!
"It seems like it's impossible not to scold this guy!" Wang Zhiren thought.
"Hong Chengchou, you are a thief! The late emperor gave you officials, built a temple for you, offered sacrifices to you, and protected your son. You trust me so much! You don't want to repay, but you bend your body and lead the wolf into the house! Shameless! Shameless! Hateful! Hateful!"< /p>
When Hong Chengchou heard this, his face flushed, and his murderous intent was revealed. After his defeat at Songjin, Emperor Chongzhen thought that he would commit suicide and die for the country as he was an important minister. He was very sad and set up an altar to commemorate him. Unexpectedly, Hong Chengchou betrayed Emperor Chongzhen's trust. , not only did he not die, he also became a traitor. This was a lifelong shame for Hong Chengchou. Anyone who dared to say this in front of him would be killed.
When Wang Zhiren saw Hong Chengchou, his face turned red with anger. There is a way! Keep scolding!
"Hong Chengchou, you turned against the enemy, betrayed your righteousness and betrayed your kindness, broke into the house with violence, razed my mausoleum, and burned my ancestral temple. If you are guilty of a crime that reaches heaven, it will go beyond Li Ling and Wei Lu is far away!"
I can’t stand it anymore! I really can’t stand it anymore!
Hong Chengchou's face was filled with shame and he was ashamed: "Here comes someone, drag this man down and kill him!"
