Three days later, forced by Korean traditional arts, the Qing army had to squeeze out 30,000 shi of food and grass from the teeth to reinforce the Korean army that was stagnant in Kuandian.
After confirming that the first batch of grain and grass was already on the way, Commander Li Shunyi finally led his troops to set off from Kuandian, imitating his old friend Jiang Hongli, and advanced at a snail's pace toward the Shenyang battlefield 600 miles away at a speed of twenty miles a day.
~~~~
Twenty miles east of Shenyang, the forward position of Jing'an Fort.
Under the banner of a huge woven gold dragon banner, Emperor Du Du of the Qing Dynasty sat on a Taishi chair and listened to Zhen Gong'a, a man with a blue flag inlay, reporting on the situation in Kuandian. A group of Eight Banners generals stood around him.
These young faces are the new generation of the Aisin Gioro family, in order: Dorgon, the leader of the Zhengbai Banner, Duoduo, the leader of the Xiangbai Banner, Airi, the leader of the Xianglan Banner, Sahalian, the leader of the Zhenghong Banner, The flag owner is Shuo Tuo, who is decorated with a red flag.
Airli is Amin's second son, Shuotuo and Saharian are Daishan's second and third sons (the eldest son Yuetuo died in the Battle of Hetuala).
In addition, Huang Taiji's son Hauge was responsible for staying in Hetuala and commanding the troops with yellow flags (but they had been mobilized).
Emperor Du Du personally led the most powerful Zhenghuang Banner and Zhenglan Banner among the banners.
Coupled with several Han and Mongolian ministers, this is the distribution of power at the highest level of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the post-Huang Taiji era.
On the surface, this power structure takes care of the interests of all factions, so it can maintain a delicate balance.
"So, you were fooled by that bitch Li Shunyi? You gave the grain to others, but they didn't come to attack Shenyang. The face of our Qing Dynasty has been completely disgraced by you with the blue flag!"
Before Gong'a and the emperor could finish speaking, Duduo, the leader of the white flag, took the lead and interrupted the two of them loudly.
The little banner leader Duduo has just turned thirteen this year. He is the fifteenth son of Taizu of the Qing Dynasty.
The Jurchen custom is to dote on young children. The old slave doted on Duduo even more during his lifetime. He also wanted to pass on the most elite two yellow flags to the fifteen Beile. The little Beile was arrogant and domineering since he was a child and did whatever he wanted. In the original history, the Manchu Qing presided over Duduo was behind the Three Massacres in Jiading and the Ten Days in Yangzhou. He also massacred people along the way and was called a famous general in the early Qing Dynasty by some historians of later generations.
It's a pity that the old slave died early on the Hunhe battlefield, and Duduo's dream of being the leader of the two yellow flags came to nothing. As long as he can remember, he has hated Kaiyuan's army, and he even hated Liu Zhaosun to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin.
No one around him dared to talk. Twenty-two-year-old Du Du looked at this uncle who was nearly ten years younger than him with a smile and said nothing.
Dorgon, who was standing next to him, glared at his younger brother fiercely. Airli, the leader of the blue flag, turned pale with anger. The burly Saharian said in a nonchalant manner:
"Can you believe the words of the Korean barbarians? When I was in Saerhu, I made an agreement with Jiang Hongli to kill Liu Wei. That bitch Jiang Hongli betrayed his promise and went to the Shajianzi Camp and lost sight of him. As a result, the leader of the Xianglan Banner was still there. Hunjiang suffered a defeat, which gave Liu Zhaosun an advantage! That’s when he started to make a fortune..."
Seeing that someone was insulting his own Ama, Airli couldn't bear it. He became furious, stood up, pointed at Saharian's nose and cursed:
"Saharian, the leader of the Zhenghong Banner, the war is about to begin. What are you talking about? Having said that, on the Hunhe battlefield, if Daishan had not led the two red flags to preserve their strength and refused to save him, Lao Khan would not have died on the battlefield. Shenyang!"
Relying on the support of the emperor, Saharian was not afraid of Amin's son at all, and said tit for tat:
"Elli, the Han people have a saying, what is in front is nothing, and what is behind is a division. Now I am mentioning Amin's several defeats in the past years, just to let the banner owners know that in the future, they should stay away from Xianglan Banner. a little······"
Amin has always been the pain point of the Xianglan Banner, and has been a psychological shadow that cannot be erased by successive Xianglan Banner leaders. The Battle of Salhu, the Battle of Kaiyuan, the bloody battle of Hunhe, the Battle of Hetuala, the battle between the Jianzhou Department and the Kaiyuan In these four battles fought by the original army, the Xianglan Banner was the first to collapse, affecting other banners.
That's why Airli reacted like this when Sahanlian mentioned that he was defeated in the battle with the blue flag.
Du Du's eyes tightened, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his expression became cold.
Saharian's brother, Shuo Tuo, the master of the red flag, hurriedly came out to smooth things over. Just as he was about to speak, he looked up at the Jing'an Fort pier wall that had just been repaired in front of him. He looked at the densely packed Qi army soldiers on the wall, and his eyes revealed a profound look. of hatred.
The Emperor of the Qing Dynasty looked at the people around him, his eyes fell on Duduo and Sahalian, and he said coldly:
"Don't mention the past things anymore. I am the eldest grandson of the old Khan. In terms of seniority, you are all my uncles. However, the four great Baylors have all died in the battle. In terms of seniority, I am the one who ranks first, so I am the Great Khan. , is the emperor. When the old Khan was in power, he said that the Eight Banners merged into one, and they became the Eight Banners just now. Right now, the enemies of the Qing Dynasty are on the opposite side, not among you."
All the surrounding flag-bearers suddenly fell silent, and it was eerily quiet under the banner. The wind blew through the leaves of Goshiha's armor, making an unsettling whistling sound.
"Don't think that I am only twenty-two years old or that my qualifications are shallow. I am telling you today that if I had not saved Jianzhou's bloodline, you would all be going to Sakhalin Island to feed the brown bears! I can ignore the fights in Hetuala on weekdays. , on the battlefield today, we must all unite as one, if there is any more instigation of dissension or bad temper, I will chop off his head as a sacrifice to the flag!"
Goshiha, who was beside the emperor, pressed his fingers on the scabbard, waiting for Dudu's order.
Several flag owners consciously drew their necks back.
The three-day deadline proposed by Gong'a could not be fulfilled at all, and the Jia La Ezhen with the blue flag was real. Only then did Emperor Kang and Qian realize that the two people around the Qing Dynasty - if not including Hu Duntu, who has not been heard from until now - —Teammates are not very reliable.
Emperor Kang Qiang's original strategy of conquering Qi from the five kingdoms has only been realized now. Three of the five kingdoms are left, and the teammate from the south has not yet come online. The 20,000 Qing troops ran into the densely packed piers and forts around Shenyang. You can only carry it on your own first.
Du Du's eyes were like swords, staring at everyone, and continued:
"I think back then, in the Battle of Hetuala, the Great Khan (Huang Taiji) was killed, and more than half of the Eight Banners suffered casualties. I was captured by Liu thieves, and was forced to go to Kaiyuan to be Liu Zhaosun's servant. I endured it for three years, and the Belles in the Khan's Palace , die and run away, it was the worst time in Jianzhou, there were only less than three thousand people left in Dingkou, and women went to Fushun to sell their bodies one after another... I survived those days alone. , where were you at that time! I will put my ugly words at the forefront, and anyone in the Qing Dynasty can do it!"
"Now, Xianglan Banner attacks the city immediately! Take the Jing'an Fort in front of you first. Airli, you are responsible for the first attack. It was here that your Ama was cut to pieces by Liu Zhaosun. Today you have to fight for your Ama To take revenge, you have to do what your Ama did at Jingan Fort in Kaiyuan, capture the fortress, massacre all the Han people in the fort, and give Kang Ying a blow! Tell that old immortal that we are here to take revenge!"
