Chapter 51: Harvest Liaoning

The war was in full swing. The Qing army deployed heavy troops in Liaoyang, Shenyang, Tieling, and Fushun, each with tens of thousands of elite troops to defend the city, hoping to rely on the severe cold in winter to repel the Dashun Army's Liaodong Road and Bohai Road Corps.

But after the long intra-Kuan war, the human resources of the Manchurians are now much worse than before.

The so-called elite soldiers that Jin Daishan cobbled together were actually mostly Han Chinese and Koreans.

Indeed, during the period when he occupied North Korea, he used North Korea's material resources to support the Qing army's Heilongjiang expedition and captured thousands of Sauron armored soldiers.

But the method of forcing Sauron's wild men to serve as soldiers has its limits after all.

As the Shun Army's Northern Expedition progressed, the Qing Army's depleted human resources for fishing in the river were increasingly exposed.

Liaodong is a vast territory with cold weather and freezing conditions. Although it is not conducive to the advancement of the Northern Expeditionary Army, it is also not conducive to the fortification of the Qing army with increasingly limited human resources.

Jin Daishan deployed heavy troops and fortifications in the four cities of Liaoyang, Shenyang, Tieling, and Fushun. Wouldn't it mean that there was no defense everywhere?

Moreover, each city has 1,800 Eight Banners soldiers to supervise more than 10,000 Han soldiers and Korean soldiers. With facilities arranged in this way, isn't it possible that we are trapped in a trap?

It's just waiting for the Dashun Army to harvest it.

After Liu Fangliang learned about the Qing army's defense situation from the former army scouts and bamboo sentries, he happily rode on his horse and sang:

"Liaodong is back, Liaodong is back!"

The entire army, including many generals, instantly became determined to solve the Liaodong problem all winter long.

In November of the fourth year of Tianfa, the soldiers of the Shun Army entered the city of Liaoyang. Zhang Guowu and others led the vanguard to Anshan Post. The Qing army set up an ambush with thousands of forward troops from the Eight Banners. The Shun Army led more than 2,400 soldiers. , defended the formation in a circle, fired guns and cannons, and lined up the guns like thunder. When the Manchu soldiers dismounted and pulled out the antlers of the deer at a close range, the soldiers marched forward with their swords and axes drawn brightly.

The two armies fought fiercely for a whole day, but the Manchurian soldiers could not break the siege. Then Liu Fangliang commanded the Eighth Division's land and water army to advance to Anshan. The so-called 200,000-strong army marched straight in.

On December 3rd, the fourth year of Tianfa, the Han soldiers in Liaoyang City raised fire and the whole city was in chaos. All the Han people in the city killed their masters. They took a pigtail's head in their hands and went out of the city to join the king's army. The morale of the Qing army was greatly depressed. That night That is, under the organization of the deputy capital commander, more than 800 Manchus abandoned the city and fled at night.

On December 4, Zhang Guowu led his troops into the city of Liaoyang. Only a few hundred Baoyi soldiers resisted stubbornly, but they were dispersed by the Shun army with red barrage artillery. Afterwards, the city of Liaoyang was settled.

After Liaoyang was defeated, all the other prefectures, counties and cities in Liaodong heard the news and responded.

Most of the Han and Koreans killed their masters and took their heads to the king's army. The Qing government's rule in the Northeast began to come to a complete end.

Even if Jin Fulin comes, the Jin Dynasty has good kings and ministers who have the ambition of rejuvenation.

However, they suffered from the limited number of Manchus and suffered huge losses in previous wars. It was difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, and they were no longer able to reinforce the cities in Liaodong.

On December 26, the Shun army besieged Shenyang City. Liu Fangliang assumed that there were 217 red barbarian artillerymen and fired around the city day and night.

The next day, the southwest corner of the city wall was defeated by red barbarian artillery. The Shun army swarmed in, killing more than 300 Manchu real barbarians, and then recovered Shenyang.

While the Dashun army spent the winter in Liaoyang and Shenyang to celebrate the New Year, the people in Fushun, Tieling, Kaiyuan and other border towns also launched uprisings one after another.

The Qing army guards fled without fighting. Fushun was recovered on December 30th in the fourth year of Tianfa, Tieling was recovered on the 6th of the first month of the fifth year of Tianfa, Kaiyuan and other cities were recovered on the 10th of the first month of the fifth year of Tianfa.

On the twenty-first day of the first month of the fifth year of Tianfa, the Qing army sent three envoys to Liaoyang to request surrender.

Jin Fulin, a good emperor and minister of the Jin Dynasty, proposed to return to Dashun all the city and territorial household registrations that the Manchus had devoured since the Wanli Dynasty, and promised to repatriate all the people who had been plundered from the Han Dynasty in the past few decades back to the territory of the Shun Dynasty.

Take this as a condition and ask for peace talks and a ceasefire.

Liu Fangliang and Gu Kecheng were not allowed to do so. The Bohaidao Corps landed 20,000 elite troops from Korea Iron Mountain in the north of Pi Island and entered the peninsula. The local rebels gathered and gathered, reaching a strength of 50,000 troops in half a month.

At the end of February in the fifth year of Tianfa, Liu Fangliang resumed his march into the northeastern interior. He sent General Liu Tichun to lead 30,000 troops north from Tieling to clear out the Manchu, Sauron, and Mongolian tribes outside the border wall, and the army reached Songhua

Return south from behind the river.

Liu Fangliang himself sent another 40,000 troops to the east to search the old land of Jianzhou. When the troops arrived at the Qianming Dynasty, Mao Lian defended the Qing army and defeated thousands of Qing guards and captured tens of thousands of good horses.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, when Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty was recruiting the Jurchens of Jianzhou on both sides of the Tumen River, one of them was Mao Lianwei. They and the three guards of Jianzhou were closely related tribes of blood relatives, and they all came from the Songhua River-Mudanjiang River Basin in the late Yuan Dynasty.

Odoli, Huli changed thousands of Jurchen households.

Maolian means "horse" in the Jurchen language. This area is a large area of ​​alpine pasture, very suitable for grazing.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Huli and Jurchen tribes in Oduoli, which was still in the state of primitive clans and tribes, were active in the Maolian River Ranch. Taking advantage of this high-quality alpine pasture and the river beach grassland on the west bank of the Wusuli River, Oduoli and

The Huli Gai Jurchens raised mountain draft horses and war horses here. The Jianzhou Sanwei and Mao Lianwei Jurchens also built their own mountain cavalry here.

Although in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, the Jianzhou Guards and Maolian Guards were still in the state of clan communes, the mountain cavalry was quite fierce. The Koreans were forced to abandon the city and the land for a while, and temporarily shelved the policy of advancing northward. Later, they could only learn from the Ming Dynasty.

To fight against the Mongols, they built city fortresses and the Great Wall - North Korea defended the Jurchens in Jianzhou, and also built the Great Wall fortress bank on the south bank of the Tumen River. North Korea's Great Wall was called the "Long Wall along the River" - to block the Jurchen cavalry and avoid field battles.

.

During the Zhengtong period, all Jianzhou Jurchens moved westward to the Changbai Mountain area in eastern Liaoning, west of the Yalu River. From the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the Maolian River pastures were controlled by the Ula tribe of Haixi Jurchens. Hada, Yehe, and Jianzhou Jurchens all moved from Ula

I want to buy some furry horses there.

During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Nurhachi first unified the Jurchens in Jianzhou, and then moved his troops eastward to develop on both sides of the Tumen River. After defeating Ulab Zhantai, the Maolian River Ranch returned to the control of the Jurchens in Jianzhou.

Now this alpine pasture has returned to Chinese control. After the Shun army occupied this pasture, the Qing army lost its main source of horses, and the formation of its cavalry troops will become a major problem and will no longer be a problem for China.

On the contrary, after the Shun Army took control of this alpine pasture, Liu Fangliang directly captured more than 30,000 fine war horses, and the supplies were extremely rich.

If effective management can be implemented from now on, it will not be a problem to support the cavalry and horses required by the Dashun Army's northeastern garrison.

After nearly a year of fighting against the Liao Dynasty, by the spring of the fifth year of Tianfa, the Qing Dynasty not only completely lost all its territory in Liaodong and the old Jianzhou area, but even the Yalu River defense line was breached by the Shun army.
