It was finally time for the Qing army to mobilize in full force. Dorgon's royal flag appeared in the center of the battlefield. Along with the shocking sound of countless war horses trampling the ground, white-armored soldiers surrounded King Rui's thousand cavalry and swept across the land.
These three-layered Manchu warriors are not only the most capable, courageous and death-defying Bajara cavalry among the Eight Banners Army of Manchuria, but they are also the most powerful Bajara soldiers.
La elite soldiers.
When Nurha Chicao founded the Eight Banners, each Niulu banner had elite white soldiers. Among them, there were ten white Bayala and forty red Bayala. According to the ratio of the number of people, the red Bayala was the backbone of the Later Jin army.
, and the Bai Baya La is closer to the Baya La that ordinary people know, and is the elite troops of Hou Jin Dynasty.
During the Tiancong period, Huang Taiji established the Baya La camp and centralized the use of the Baya La camp in each banner. Each banner had a Baya La camp. The chief officer of the Baya La camp was "Baya Lahu Ezhen", Tiancong
In the eighth year, it was renamed "Baya Lazhangjing".
Although it is often said that the Manchus are good at walking and dull at riding, in fact, raising horses is one of the ancestral professions of the people of Jianzhou. After the old Khan Nurhachi unified the Zhushen in the war, the Jin army often used cavalry.
, it is not uncommon for battles to occur thousands of miles away.
The so-called "Northern fear of slaves, slaves fear of northern cavalry" actually refers to the relative situation between Jianzhou and Ye He.
You must know that in Manchu language, "Baya La" originally means elite cavalry.
During the Huangtaiji period, the title "Baya La" or Bai Jia Bing was gradually replaced by the term "Gu Jun". But when it came to elite men, Dorgon still preferred to use B Ya La Jia Qi or Bai Jia Bing.
Such traditional titles are used to boost the morale of soldiers.
Thousands of special knights wearing mercury cloth-faced armor had already separated their routes and stood out, and all the white flags and pure white flags representing Dorgon's banners were flown out.
The strong wind was howling, thousands of horses were galloping, and the sound was getting louder and louder. Even when the white-armored soldiers rushed into the battle formation, these hunters, whose skills on horseback riding and archery were already incredible, used their extraordinary speed and skills to
Hundreds more sharp arrows were fired. Before entering the formation, they had torn many gaps in the infantry line of the army.
"Central Breakthrough."
Dorgon has gathered all the remaining elites from each banner. Almost every white-armored knight accompanying him has a famous martial name in Liaodong. If anyone mentions his name, Dorgon will
Gun can immediately report this person's glorious heroic achievements.
"Tan Tai! In the sixth year of Chongde, you led 400 elite soldiers from Xiaoling River to the seaside, cut off the Ming soldiers' return route, and captured Hong Chengchou alive. I still remember it."
After Tan Tai's defeat at Dangshan, although he was protected by Huang Taiji because of his origin in Zhenghuang Banner, his status among the Eight Banners aristocrats had dropped significantly. At this time, Dorgon was the first to name him.
Tan Tai's face turned red when he mentioned the glorious history of the past, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Dorgon was riding on the horse, holding a waist knife in one hand and pulling the reins with the other, showing a bold and generous laugh that was rare in his life:
"The defeat of Dangshan is not your fault. This thief, Li Laiheng, is indeed a formidable enemy that we have not had in the decades since the rise of the army. Today, even if I am alone, I dare not say that I will definitely be able to kill Li Laiheng.
Tan Tai, after the defeat of Dangshan, countless of my Eight Banners disciples buried their bones in Henan. Their souls in heaven are all looking at you!"
Dorgon's words reminded Tan Tai of the tragic situation after the defeat of Dangshan, and even of the place where Li Laiheng gathered Manchu heads to watch, right on the side of the Xuzhou battlefield. He was filled with a sense of shame and said angrily:
"The Yellow River is surging. Once again, Tan Tai has no choice but to go to the river to wash away this shame and humiliation!"
Dorgon laughed, pointed at the second person and said:
"Ying Erdai, your grandfather Dai Tukukhari surrendered to Taizu, and three generations of your family fought for the Qing Dynasty. During the Tiancong period, half of the credit for pacifying Korea was due to you. In the tenth year of Tiancong, the first year of Chongde,
During the two conquests of three Koreas, you fought with Emperor Taizong in all the conquests.
How much bravery is there left with the bravery of Zhang Fengyi, governor of Jiliao, and Xie Rulan, governor of Shuntian, who was defeated in three battles by whipping up his whip and horse?"
Ying Erdai was born in Zhengbai Banner and had always had a close relationship with Dorgon. He had been responsible for the Qing army's task of managing North Korea for many years, and he was the famous "big dragon" in North Korean historical records.
After being named by Dorgon, Ying Erdai felt even more honored and proud, and immediately said:
"I will lead Li Laiheng's head in front of the regent's horse."
Dorgon laughed loudly when he heard this, took out a spare riding whip from his saddle pocket, threw it to Ying Erdai, and ordered: "I give you this whip, and I will use it to bring Li Laiheng to see the orphan today."
Then Dorgon galloped in front of the army of white-armored soldiers. Every few feet he passed, he pointed at a person and sang his name loudly. Then he listed the person's past achievements one by one, without any mistakes or errors:
"Yilde... In the third year of Tiancong, you accompanied Emperor Taizong to attack Beijing and defeated the Ming soldiers in Luanzhou... In the seventh year, you surrounded Jinzhou and defeated the Ming soldiers who seized the cannon..."
"Wu Bai... you followed Taizu to defeat the Ming Dynasty when you were sixteen... you were listed as sixteen ministers and served with a white flag... In the eighth year of Tiancong's reign, together with Dorji and Turush, you defeated Cao Wenzhao, the commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty..."
"Shitingzhu... Beile Nangnuk of the Bahrain tribe of Mongolia betrayed the alliance and launched a large-scale plunder. You followed Taizu on the expedition, captured his stronghold, and collected livestock to return... In the fourth year of Chongde, he attacked Songshan City, and the credit was due to the generals.
superior……"
"Ming'an... you were the ruler of the Horqin Ulut tribe in Mongolia... In the third year of Tiancong, together with Gushan Erzhenwunage and Erzong Engedel, you surrendered 2,000 households in Chahar... In the sixth year of Tiancong
In 2006, another great victory was achieved against Chahar..."
Every time Dorgon thought of a name, the general whose name was called felt the supreme honor. Dorgon did not rely on the hasty memory before the war. He had already classified the talented and meritorious generals in the Qing army into terrifying
The memory is firmly etched in my mind.
Dorgon galloped on his horse, and in a short while he quickly recited the past deeds of more than a dozen people. When he talked about the rise, he also told various anecdotes about the wars that year.
.
Everyone was impressed by Dorgon's extraordinary energy and memory, and felt proud and reassured that he had clearly remembered his achievements.
With such a commander-in-chief, everyone knows that the regent will never forget his share of military achievements and trophies in the future.
"The Qing Dynasty... is invincible in the world!"
Dorgon raised the sword in his hand high, pointing the blade directly at the blazing sun that had risen to the center of the sky. He shouted at the top of his lungs:
"The Qing Dynasty... is invincible in the world!"
The most elite white-armored soldiers in the Eight Banners Army, the kings Beile who were close to Dorgon, the royal family members, famous generals and warriors all shouted in unison:
"I, the Qing Dynasty, are invincible in the world!"
The huge sound seemed to shake the military flag, and Kong Youde, who was left behind to defend his position, lowered his head silently. He had already learned about the military situation of Shang Kexi's death in the battle, and had betrayed the Ming Dynasty and returned to the Qing Dynasty with the Sanshun Prince.
There are all kinds of grievances and hatreds, but after hearing about the tragic death of Shang Kexi in battle, Kong Youde could not help but feel the sadness of a rabbit dying and a fox pitiful.
The Shang family has always had a family tradition of loyalty. Shang Kexi betrayed the Ming Dynasty first, ruining the reputation of the Shang family as a loyal family, but then he proved his "righteousness will no longer be insulted" by dying for the Qing Dynasty.
Kong Youde did not have as high a moral integrity as Shang Kexi. As a Ming general, Shang Kexi performed much better than Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming. Kong Youde and Geng could not bear the hardships of Dongjiang and went to Dengzhou to enjoy their blessings. Shang Kexi was still suffering on an isolated island in Liaohai.
support.
Although there were reasons for the harsh treatment of Liao soldiers during the Dengzhou Rebellion, it was ordinary soldiers who were treated harshly. Rebel leaders such as Kong Youde, Li Jiucheng, Geng Zhongming, Mao Chenglu, and Chen Guangfu were all popular drinkers.
As far as their direct boss Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, Sun Yuanhua could only ensure the treatment of the Liao soldiers as much as possible within the scope of his capabilities. It was not only the Dongjiang soldiers who were short of food and pay, some of Lu Xiangsheng's soldiers were even wearing pants in the winter.
He didn't even have shoes or socks. Lu Xiangsheng didn't do anything terrible just because of a chicken.
