At dusk, on Dong'e Road, there is a blue flag camp. service
The cavalry dispersed as usual, and the long spears were lying down, like waves of wheat rising when the wind passed through the wheat field.
The Jianzhou horsemen jumped off their saddles one after another, stretching their legs and twisting their waists to stretch their muscles. The coatmen grabbed the reins and led the horses away. The horsemen walked out of the queue and the flying dust, and gathered in small groups. They saw clusters of red tassels on their helmets shaking like balls of jumping fire.
The Jurchen warriors joked and boasted as much as they wanted, talking about women and Dajin's martial arts achievements.
They have been waiting here for a long time. After tonight, they will attack the Ming Dynasty's East Route Army and bring an end to the Saarhu War.
Jierhalang wanted to get into the crowd of horse-armored soldiers, but the blue-flag armored men he was in charge of didn't like the general very much.
Jean took a few steps toward one group, and then turned to another group for some reason, but he did not squeeze in, and no one noticed him.
He stood hesitantly behind this person or that person for a while, not taking part in the conversation of the vestrymen. service
Jirhalang strode towards the stables. Soon he found that Bao Yi had not fed the horses on time, so he yelled and whipped people. Until the horseman who had neglected his duties was beaten to death, he summoned a group of grooms, explained his responsibilities to them, and took the trouble to explain to each horseman how to do things well, and he could not be careless in front of his master.
Jirhalang left the stable and soon found that other armored white-armored soldiers were still gathering together to chat about women. It was almost dark.
He was so furious that he called these stout Jianzhou knights out of their chat one by one, loudly reprimanded these teammates for their negligence, and forced them to go out to patrol and investigate...
Jilharang is not very popular among the Xianglan Banner. Everyone thinks that he is a spy sent by the Great Khan. If there is an opportunity, he will take the Xianglan Banner into the possession of the Great Khan.
Amin made no secret of his dissatisfaction with this brother.
No matter from which perspective, Aisin Gioro Zilhalang can undoubtedly be called a model soldier; but everyone unanimously agrees that he is a nasty guy, at least in Xianglanqi.
~~~~Serving
In the 29th year of Wanli (1601), the Great Khan reorganized the organization and took Niulu Ezhen, Jiala Ezhen and Gushan Ezhen as their leaders. At first, yellow, white, red and blue flags were set up to form four flags. In the forty-third year (1615), four flags were added: yellow, white, red, and blue. At this point, the eight-banner system was initially established.
The young Jurchens are soldiers in war and civilians in peacetime, possessing extremely strong combat effectiveness.
Night, for the Eight Banners troops camping in the wild, is as orderly as the changes of the four seasons in the Liaodong wilderness under the stars:
The armored soldiers replaced the sentries, the armored soldiers patrolled regularly, and the white armored soldiers took turns on duty.
At night, the usual chaos on the battlefield, and the tumult that had arisen from time to time during the day due to accidents such as a fierce horse jumping out of the battle line, had finally subsided. Fatigue and drowsiness subdued the brave and capable Eight Banners warriors and war horses, oxen and donkeys.
The livestock stood in rows, occasionally digging the soil on the ground with their hooves, or making a short neigh of a horse or a donkey; those who finally got out of their helmets and armors could not be confused with each other because they had returned to their respective bodies. , characteristic self and feel satisfied and comfortable, they have already fallen asleep there.
Only Jilhalang did not feel this relaxed. service
His tent is located on the edge of the Blue Flag camp, which in a sense hints at the situation of the Khan's nephew on the edge of the Blue Flag camp.
Jilharang opened his eyes and was neatly dressed in fine armor. He lay on his back, with a long knife on his head, and with thoughts in his mind, he began to plan the situation of the Eight Banners after the battle.
How many more points will the Great Khan give himself? Can Xianglan Banner get Han gunners? Will the arrogant and domineering Mang Gurtai be suppressed? The most important question is, which Baylor will lead the troops in the next attack on Tieling and Kaiyuan?

······
The young man's thoughts are like a muddy river, flowing continuously. They are not the leisurely and erratic thoughts of a person who falls asleep in a hazy state, but are always clear and clear thoughts. After resting for a moment, he took out one arm and raised it up: he felt that he needed to do some physical work, such as wiping the sword and gun, or applying oil to the seams of the armor, but the long sword was already clean and shiny. .
He waited like this for half an hour, then suddenly stood up. Geshiha, who was standing at the door, yawned and tried to open his eyes wide. Jirhalang glared at him, walked out of the tent with a long knife and shield, and walked through the camp.
The sound of snoring sounded one after another in the cow felt cone-shaped tents. service
He walked through the tents and walked to the edge of the camp, walked to a deserted and remote place, climbed up the bare hillside, looked up at the western sky, and saw a meteor falling into the earth with a long tail flame.
"According to the Han people, there will be great chaos in the world, and their emperor is about to die."
Jierhalang stood on the hillside looking forward to the dawn. After dawn, he could lead his Jiala warriors to wipe out the Eastern Route Army and end Liu Dadao's legend as "the most powerful general in the Ming Dynasty".
It’s still exciting to think about it.
The night before dawn is the darkest and the quietest, with only amorphous shadows flapping their wings silently, dancing lightly, and turning around without direction.
It's a bat.
Jirharang stopped suddenly. service
A dark figure poked its head out from a ditch in front of the horse and looked at him.
Behind that man, there were a series of sneaky figures.
"Night!" Jierhalang shouted.
"Destroy Liu Wei, kill the Han dog!"
The answer came from the other side of Damagou.
Jilhalang relaxed his guard.
"Master, the slaves are the guards under Master Talyou. They were sent out to spy outside just now. They are white-armored soldiers sent to spy on the military situation. This is Mandahan. All their elite white-armored soldiers are here. I heard I have important military information to report to Erbeile."
~~~~~
As the second son of Shuerhaqi, Erbeil Amin will certainly not forget the fact that his father was killed by Nurhaci.
At this time, Jianzhou Jurchen was still under tribal rule, and the Confucian thought of avenging one's father was not popular here. Fifteen years ago, Nurhachi's younger brother, Shuerhaqi, the second-in-command in Jianzhou Jurchen, was executed by his brother for committing rebellion. , his eldest son and third son were both killed.
Amin did not participate in the rebellion at that time and was lucky enough to survive. He was assigned half of his father's Niulu and became the leader of the Xianglan Banner.
Although he did not kill Amin, Nurhaci has never relaxed his surveillance of the Xianglan Banner over the years. Soon after, he sent Jilharang to serve as Jiala Erzhen, which was regarded as a nail in the Xianglan Banner. A nail. Amin avoided everything, but his uncle pressed forward step by step. Fortunately, there were two serious enemies, the Haixi Jurchens and the Ming Kingdom, so Yingming Khan did not have time to attack Erbeile.
Of course, the most important reason why Amin can survive until now is because he has thirty-three Niulu and nearly ten thousand soldiers.
"Er Beile, the white-armored soldiers sent to Liu Wei's army are back!"
"Let them in!"
