Chongzhen Ming Dynasty: Beginning from Meishan Chapter 451 Fake Surrender Plan
Here, Ga Dahun lit ten red flags of Niulu and rushed to the aid of Dagukou at night.
Over there, Daishan also formally took over the command of the Eight Banners Han Army and the Tenth Battalion Green Battalion in Dagukou.
Although Daishan's political status in the Qing court was not as good as Jierhalang's, his qualifications and foundation were not comparable to Jierhalang's, because Daishan's line firmly controlled the two red flags, and his descendants were rewarded for their merit.
There were a lot of princes, Beile and Beizi who were granted the title, so Dorgon did not dare to force Daishan too much.
Otherwise, if the Daishan group really makes a fuss, it will definitely be enough for Dorgon to drink a pot.
Therefore, in addition to allowing Daishan to recall ten Niulu from Xuzhou, he was also given a full ten-day period.
Daishan is also very interesting. The first thing he did after taking over the command was to send people to recruit the Ming army to surrender. He actually learned the routine from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Dai Shan asked Bao Yi to write a letter of surrender to Yan Yingyuan.
Of course, Dai Shan was not sure that the leader of the Ming army was Yan Yingyuan, so he used Sushi.
A lesson learned from a single step: I have heard that good birds choose trees to roost in, and good ministers choose their masters to work. The Southern Ming Dynasty was unruly and went against the grain, causing thieves to swarm and the people to live in ruins...
…
The letter of surrender was quickly sent to Dagokou.
"... When the King of the Qing Dynasty entered the Pass, the people in the capital were all emptying their pots to eat, and the Jin gentry in Hebei were all walking in front of us. This clearly shows that the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were obeying the will of the people."
"First defeat the regent of my Qing emperor father, and then defeat the regent of my uncle,"
"His skill in using troops and his wisdom and planning are so extraordinary that even the famous generals of ancient times are not as good as him."
"Such a great talent stoops to the point of being unable to show his talent. This is the kind of sincerity that a bright pearl throws at you secretly."
"If you can raise your troops and surrender to the Qing Dynasty, you can easily get the title of Duke."
"Isn't it ten thousand times better than being a hawk or a dog with a dying light, worrying about the precarious situation every day?"
"Prince Aixinjueluo Daishan of the Qing Dynasty, sincerely pays homage to him, March 28th, the fourth year of Shunzhi."
Yan Yingyuan read the letter of surrender and said with a smile: "I can't tell, Daishan is quite talented in literature."
"How could a barbarian Jianlu from Daishan write such an article?" Chen Mingyu said, "It was probably ghostwritten by some servant in his house who was proficient in writing."
Sun Fanzhi smiled and said: "This Daishan is really whimsical, he actually thought of recruiting Jianheng to surrender."
"What's the point?" Zhou Peigong, who was playing war games on the sand table, suddenly said, "Whether it succeeds or not, it doesn't matter if you try it. Besides, what if it really succeeds?"
"You little kid, what do you know?" Sun Fanzhi scolded with a smile.
Yan Yingyuan waved his hand and said, "I think Pei Gong is right. There's no harm in giving it a try."
Chen Mingyu said: "Jianheng, do you want to write a reply and scold Daishan?"
"Hey, why are you scolding Daishan?" Yan Yingyuan waved his hand and said, "It's useless to scold him a few times."
"That's right." Zhou Peigong received encouragement from Yan Yingyuan and added, "Instead of scolding him, it is better to make a false surrender plan for him, and maybe even make Jiannu suffer a big loss."
"Fake surrender plan?" Chen Mingyu and Sun Fanzhi looked at each other.
Yan Yingyuan showed admiration on his face and thought about it together with him.
Chen Mingyu asked: "How do you pretend to surrender? I'm afraid it's difficult to deceive Jian Nu, right?"
Zhou Peigong said: "It's possible to cheat, but you have to cheat to find out. What if it succeeds?"
"That's good." Yan Yingyuan said with a smile, "What if it works? Then we will make a lot of money."
After saying this, Yan Yingyuan asked Zhou Peigong again: "Boy, if you are asked to surrender, what will you do?"
Zhou Peigong thought for a while and said: "I will find a way to lure Jiannu into one of the gun towers, and then use mines to hit them hard, blowing him up and turning him upside down."
"It's easy to think." Chen Mingyu shook his head and said, "Jian Nu will not easily enter the valley."
"If the slaves are not accepted, then we will send them to your doorstep." Yan Yingyuan said with a sneer.
…
The news that Daishan had recruited the Ming army reached Dorgon's ears.
Hong Chengchou, Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo all looked at each other, which was really bizarre.
"He is delusional." Hou Fangyu shook his head and said, "It is absolutely impossible for a diligent prince like Yan Yingyuan to surrender. Prince Li will most likely make the same mistake as the ten kings."
"You mean Maoxiang?" Dorgon asked in a deep voice.
"Yes." Hou Fangyu nodded and said, "These diligent princes and scholars have been brainwashed by Chongzhen, the dog emperor. They are really not afraid of death. They can really do anything. You need to be careful of their death."
Dorgon waved his hand and said, "This is unnecessary."
Since Daishan wants to be smart, let him do it.
At worst, we will lose some Green Camp soldiers or Eight Banners Han troops.
But as long as it can bring down Daishan, it's worth it.
…
Daishan has received a reply from Yan Yingyuan.
Yan Yingyuan wrote in his reply: I have long admired the name of Prince Daishan of the Qing Dynasty, and I have long been willing to serve, but it was not convenient. This time I finally got what I wanted.
Moreover, Yan Yingyuan promised Daishan that he would transfer the main force of the Ming army to the left and right gun towers, leaving only a small number of Ming troops at Dagukou, and then asked Daishan to lead the Qing army to attack Dagukou at night.
When the time comes, he will raise the lamp as a signal and he will open the camp gate.
As long as Daishan seizes Dagokou and all supplies,
The Ming army trapped in the gun towers on the left and right will surrender because they have run out of ammunition and food.
After reading Yan Yingyuan's reply, Daishan quickly summoned his disciples and grandsons.
At this time, more than a dozen county princes from the two red flags, Beile Beizi, had gathered in Daishan's big tent.
These princes Beile and Beizi are all the sons and grandsons of Daishan, such as the fourth son Wakda and the seventh son Mandahai. Their grandchildren include Luo Luohun, Lekedhun, Erchuhun and Balchuhun.
etc.
In terms of having many descendants, among the sixteen sons of Lao Nu, Daishan is the most important.
After more than ten descendants had all read the reply letter sent by Yan Yingyuan, Daishan asked, "What do you think?"
Luo Luohun, the king of Yanxi County, was the first to answer: "Grandpa Mafa, this matter is absolutely unbelievable. Duduo suffered a great loss in Shanyang from Prince Qin's scholar Maoxiang, and ruined many Niu Lu in Liangbai Banner.
If you don't tell me, you will almost risk your own life. We can't make the same mistake as Duduo again."
Gushan Beizi Mandahai also said: "Luo Luohun is right, this is not credible."
The other sons and grandsons expressed their opinions one after another. Some said it was unbelievable, and some said it could be believed. Those who said it could be believed were all Beilebeizi like Erchuhun who had never dealt with Prince Qin.
The two factions of the children and grandchildren were at loggerheads, and Daishan was at a loss as to what to do.
Finally, Mandahai said: "Amma, you can write another letter to Yan Yingyuan. Tell him that if he really wants to surrender, he can transport the supplies out at night!"
"It won't be too late to send troops into Dagukou after we get the supplies."
"If Yan Yingyuan refuses to donate supplies, then he is pretending to surrender."
"Yes." Luo Luojun agreed, "Mafa, you can give Uncle Qi's method a try."
"Okay, let's give it a try as Lao Qi said." Dai Shan immediately said to Wu Zhizhong, the coat servant, "Brother Bandit, please write a letter to Yan Yingyuan and ask him to hand over the supplies first."
"Hey!" Wu Zhizhong immediately started writing a letter.
…
"Jianheng, Daishan has replied again." Chen Mingyu hurried in with a letter.
"As you expected, the old dog Daishan really asked us to hand over the supplies first."
"This is expected." Yan Yingyuan chuckled and added, "Gongchen, please reply to him immediately and say that we can hand over the supplies first, but it must be delivered on the ice of the North Sea."
…
"Deliver on the ice of the North Sea?" Luo Luohun said coldly, "Marfa, there must be fraud in this."
Luck Dehun said: "Yan Yingyuan must be trying to repeat his old trick and use the opportunity to blow up the ice during the delivery of supplies, so that the Green Camp soldiers who go to receive the supplies will be thrown into the sea!"
Wakda also said: "So it cannot be delivered on the North Sea ice."
"Yes, we have to decide the delivery location." Mandahai spread out the map near Dagukou, pointed at the map and said, "Most of the ice on the north and east of Dagukou has been blown away, but the ice layer immediately to the south has collapsed.
There is a narrow edge at the coast, so Yan Yingyuan can transport the supplies through the narrow edge on the south."
Daishan immediately said to Wu Zhizhong, the envoy: "Zhizhong, please reply to Yan Yingyuan again."
While Wu Zhizhong was writing a letter, Daishan said to his fourth son Wakda: "Fourth son, you will take a group of green battalion soldiers to receive the supplies later. You must be careful. The first thing you do after receiving the supplies is
It’s just to check and see what supplies are loaded on the ice sledge, but don’t bring gunpowder or anything back to the camp.”
"Don't worry, Ama." Wakda said nonchalantly, "I'm not a child."
Dai Shan nodded and said, "Then you should take the Green Camp soldiers to the field and wait, beware of Ming Gou playing tricks again."
"Hey!" Wakda turned and left.
…
"Oh, the old dog fell into the trap."
After Yan Yingyuan read the letter, he smiled and said to Chen Mingyu, Sun Fanzhi and Feng Houdun: "Gongchen, Liufu and Pei Qing, please hurry up and prepare."
"Yes." Sun Fanzhi and Feng Houdun immediately turned and left.
Chen Mingyu just wanted to leave, but was stopped by Yan Yingyuan.
"Gongchen." Yan Yingyuan asked, "Have you selected all the dead men?"
"Well, I've picked everything out and written my suicide note." Chen Mingyu said solemnly.
"This is truly a national warrior." Yan Yingyuan said solemnly, "Please be sure to tell them that after this battle is over, I will present it to the Holy One in person and enshrine their names in the Temple of Heroes."
There is still a difference between enshrining in the Hall of Heroes and enshrining in the Monument of the Martyrs.
There is only a name on the Monument of Heroes, and there is a tablet in the Temple of Heroes.
According to current standards, only the Qinwang scholars who sacrificed their lives for the Ming Dynasty are eligible to be enshrined in the Hall of Heroes, such as Maoxiang who died in the Battle of Shanyang.
"Okay, I will tell them." Chen Mingyu said solemnly.
Yan Yingyuan warned again: "Be sure to remind me again and again. If Jiannu asks, just pretend that you don't know anything. The more they talk, the easier it is for them to make mistakes. It's better not to say anything."
"Understood." Chen Mingyu responded, "I will remind you again and again."
