Chapter 312 General
Datong, Zhou Mansion.
The Zhou family became busy and the maids and mothers came in and out, preparing wine and new clothes to wash the dust of the general town.
All the young masters and young masters of the Zhou family, all the people who can speak at home are welcomed outside the door. When they saw an iron horse team coming along the street, they knelt down on the ground to worship.
"Datong Zhou family welcomes the general and is promoted to the title!"
"General, great blessings and great peace."
Amid the praises of praise, Ma Cheng turned over and dismounted and helped the head of the Zhou family up. This was not a big rebellion, but in accordance with the etiquette. It was inevitable that Ma Cheng would be awarded titles after this battle. One family and two titles were after Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty.
It was a major event that had never happened before. The call from the general was not considered a violation of the rules. The official of Macheng was promoted to the general. The twenty-year-old general has been considered a person who can rank the top names throughout history.
Firecrackers were ringing, and Ma Cheng stepped on the firecracker paper and entered Zhou Mansion to welcome the air and dust.
The next day, Kaiyuan Iron Cavalry rectified a little and went out to chase the Great Wall in the north. It was too unreasonable to beat the dog in the water without any pain. From Shanxi, exiting the Great Wall, passing through the Korqin Grassland, circling the northern mountainous area of Jinzhou, this
The long retreat route was a long and tragic road of defeat for Dorgon. The six thousand Ming cavalry followed and chased, and the tired and trapped Eight Banners soldiers would suffer extremely heavy losses.
There was Cao Wenzhao in front of him, who bit Dorgon's camp and refused to let go, while Ma Cheng settled in Zhou Mansion to deal with the aftermath.
Teams of soldiers ordered the troops to set out to the grassland, Baicheng, Kaiyuan to contact each other, intercept the attack halfway, and use everything to ambush. How much can be left depends on everyone's fortune. The direction of Baicheng is still unclear, but Kaiyuan reinforcements first have a reply
Son, my father pieced together 4,000 cavalrymen in Kaiyuan to launch a large-scale assistance, intercepting Dorgon along the Liaohe River. Lin Danhan in the direction of Baicheng would not sit idly by, but could piece together thousands of cavalrymen to follow and monitor. In addition, Cao Wenzhao led
There were three thousand pursuers and tens of thousands of cavalry who chased and blocked them along the way, and Dorgon was not easy to walk along the way.
At this time, the two flags of Yingbai and Zhenglan were on an expedition, and the fatality of the long front line was infinitely amplified. The long front line brought the ultimate fatal consequences. The Eight Banners soldiers were brave enough to sleep, eat and drink water, even if they were brave.
People can't stand the horses even if they can't. If you are not careful on such a long retreat route, you will repeat the mistake of Sun Chengzong's defeat in the Liaohe River. When it comes to the Eight Banners soldiers taste the uncomfortable feeling of the ambushing soldiers, they are shocked three times a day.
It's so uncomfortable.
Ma Cheng felt awesome in his heart and took the opportunity to teach his subordinates a lesson. Don’t claim to be invincible in the world and don’t abide by the rules and don’t talk about tactics anymore. No matter how you are invincible in the world, you can’t beat the right time and place to eat and drink water. You are invincible in history.
Many brave troops were defeated by this. The hard-working army was a major military event and must be observed. The subordinates, such as their close confidants, Yuan Chonghuan, and a group of generals and officials, were taught one after another and praised them.
Yuan Chonghuan had no integrity as a famous minister of all ages, and ran his legs in front of the horse and behind the horse every day. It can be seen that integrity is also divided into different stages of life. Ma Cheng could not evaluate this person who was very controversial in his later generations. He was the one who killed Mao Wenlong without any reason.
The biggest mistake shows that this person's weapon is very small and not tolerant. To say that he deliberately sent the Eight Banners soldiers into the pass, that would be nonsense and throw dirty water on people's heads.
The so-called historians are always unrealistic and do not consider the actual battlefield situation. There are also huge difficulties faced by an army. Although I can't figure out how many cavalrymen there are under Mr. Yuan's command, I think there will not be too many, and I will only be able to survive ten thousand.
Cavalry, can 10,000 cavalry beat the main force of the Eight Banners? It's nonsense. The battle of Datong cannot be counted. This battle was done by Macheng, who tried his best to lure Dorgon to attack the city with cavalry, lost his spirit, and carefully prepared.
The modern cavalry charge was a wall-like charge, and the enemy cavalry was unprepared to achieve such a great victory.
Therefore, it is unreasonable to take off your anger from Yuan Chonghuan. If the Guanning cavalry goes to fight blindly, there is a high possibility of rushing on the marching road.
What is truly incompetent are the generals, governors, governors and governors in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty. The 100,000 Eight Banners entered the pass and were raging like a person who was in a state of no one. These people could not assemble a large army or even basically block the enemy, and could not do so.
What does this mean to Guanning cavalry do? Are they like headless flies? The Guanning cavalry can only patiently guard the Eight Banners retreat route and wait for fighter planes. Is the commander who doesn't know how to patiently find fighter planes still called the commander?
If there were many governors from the north of the Ming Dynasty and the town generals could gather a main force and firmly delay the 100,000 Eight Banners in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, the Guanning cavalry would launch a fatal blow, and how many people in the 100,000 Eight Banners could get out of seclusion alive.
Dear governors and governors are so incompetent, they will naturally attack them and splash dirty water onto someone. They will naturally be right if someone dies. The ones who are wrong are the soldiers at the border.
There are 100,000 troops in the Eight Banners five times. Macheng thinks there are, so it depends on how to calculate. How many people in the Eight Banners of the Manchu army are still debated in the future. Macheng thinks it is very ridiculous, and the Eight Banners soldiers are not just referring to them.
The old camp of the Eight Banners, even the Han people who packed clothes and carried the flags, and the bannermen with mixed races of Manchu and Han, had to be counted, which were far more than 100,000. The Qing Dynasty refused to admit it, and could not conceal the loss of the whole army.
Huang Taiji had to select a large number of Han troops to carry the flag to supplement the vacancies in the Eight Banners Headquarters.
The Eight Banners entered the pass five times and plundered a large number of Ming women and brought them back to the pass. The Eight Banners Manchus would not be all Liu Xiahui, so Qiu was not guilty. The rape and plundering would produce a large number of mixed-race men of Manchu and Han. I think it is also known that the number is
It is extremely huge, so where did these Manchu and Han mixed-race men go? Naturally, they are all considered Manchus. Ming Shi is purely nonsense, while Qing Shi just doesn't brag about it.
If the Eight Banners soldiers only have 30,000 to 50,000, that's pure nonsense, there are always between 100,000 and 200,000.
The Manchus refused to admit that a large number of Han people had added to the Manchu Eight Banners, just to promote the pure bloodline of the Manchu Eight Banners, but they still inadvertently revealed many flaws. As for Emperor Qianlong's concubines, there were at least four people, such as
Gao Jia and Wei Jia all have a character in their names, but the Manchu surname itself contains the character Jia. In this way, are you distinguished by Tong Jia and Jin Jia from Qing Dynasty Manchu or Han?
In addition to Wei Jia, three of Emperor Qianlong's Han concubines were changed to the Man surname Mou Jia, which was simply too obvious and deceived himself. These Tong Jia and Jin Jia should be Han Chinese, and some of them were also Qing Dynasty.
What was not found in the first record is even more suspicious. Is there any surname that cannot be found in Manchus? Manchus are too fond of taking their ancestors seriously. There are eight of these Jia family who cannot be found in the record.
More than ten people are probably Han people who have been recruited into the Eight Banners of Manchus on a large scale.
No matter how arrogant the Manchu ancestors were, they could not put the best Han soldiers without them. Especially the Han people born on Jianzhou land, they could use high-quality soldiers with confidence. Anyway, Manchus and Han people all looked the same.
He said he was a Han Chinese, he said he was a Manchu, he was a Manchu. Can you tell me clearly? It can be seen that the brave Manchu Eight Banners were also killed and injured in the hands of the Ming army, and hundreds of thousands of Liao soldiers were the last elites of the Ming Dynasty.
, not that weak either.
The purse slaves are also bannermen. A white-armored soldier in Manzhou Province has to bring at least ten coats to fight, and the coats also ride horses to fight.
