In the early morning of October 22, the Battle of Dalian broke out. In fact, this battle should not be called a battle. Because the scale is still too small. The time is also too short. But the significance of this battle is irreplaceable.
This battle is actually unequal, with a huge disparity in power. The Liaodong Bureau dispatched 5,000 regular troops. The soldiers are well-equipped and well-trained. And there are several emergency plans. Facing the same number of coated slave armies.
These clothed slaves are not to mention soldiers. Even the clothes are not straight. After all, it was early in the morning, and we had just finished supervising the Han slaves’ autumn harvest. Who wouldn’t be tired? Therefore, the Liaodong Bureau is still suspected of sneak attack.
Not many of these clothed slaves resisted. Those who did resist were ruthlessly killed. Become a merit point for others. The remaining coated slaves began their long labor reform.
Their family members were also in the process of reeducation through labor, but their sentences were shorter, and many of them later became legal citizens who supported the Liaodong Bureau. He has made many contributions to the construction and development of Liaodong Bureau.
As for the Jurchens, they are all concentrated in the port. Facing the Liaodong Bureau's raid, he was basically captured in bed. After the war, there were more than 1,200 Jurchens in total. There were almost no casualties among the Jurchens during the battle, and almost all of them surrendered.
But they all ended badly. At the criticism meeting a few days later, many of them were beaten to death by the Han slaves. The rest were also publicly executed by the Liaodong Bureau. It is said that this was also the first time that Li Miao's forces killed prisoners.
Of course, the Liaodong Bureau did not deny it. This also showed that they, together with the Han slaves, were incompatible with the Jurchens and were incompatible with each other. This kicked off the confrontation between the Liaodong Bureau and the Han slaves within its jurisdiction and the Jurchen tribe.
However, it is no longer appropriate to call Han slaves. They are already legal citizens of the Liaodong Bureau. They lived a happy life that they had never dared to imagine before. There is plenty of food and clothing, and there is also a monthly prescription available.
There were hundreds of thousands of Han slaves in the Dalian area. He became a staunch supporter and defender of the Liaodong Bureau. They have a deep hatred against the Jurchen people. For today's hard-won happiness and life, how can we allow the Jurchens to trample on us again?
From then on, these earliest Han slaves became the mainstay of defending the Liaodong Bureau.
According to post-war statistics, the number of these Han slaves was as high as more than 470,000. They farm more than three million acres of land. Not even enough to eat. Obviously, the Jurchens' oppression of them was outrageous.
The real battle of the Dalian Battle took place at sea six days later. In fact, it is not equal. At this time, the port had long been occupied, and Jia Tanchun commanded almost all the Liaodong Bureau warships.
Li Miao even went to the naval battle site to observe it. In fact, the entire Dalian area was in order within a few days. Such a large-scale naval battle is also rare.
According to post-war statistics, a total of more than 70 large and small sea-going ships were captured. Sounds like a good outcome. But the so-called big ships are similar to the small ships of Li Miao's power. You can imagine the small sea boats.
But these are also half of the Jurchens' sea ships. The Jurchens were also impatient, so they were in such a hurry to deliver food. Next, even if the Jurchens gave him ten courages, they would not dare to send any more ships.
.
At this time, Jia Tanchun called for gold and retreated his troops. Several small sea boats were left to patrol in turn.
This time the Liaodong Sea was blocked. More than 20 ships of the Zheng Dynasty were also seized. These are all traded with the Jurchen tribe. Li Miao was also merciless. All were seized and treated the same as Jurchen ships.
This time, hundreds of ships were seized, and more than 15,000 people were captured. Among them, the majority were Han people and Han slaves, there were nearly 2,000 Baoyi slaves, and there were only more than 300 Jurchens.
This time the Jurchens were all stewards on the ship, not combatants. Therefore, the Liaodong Bureau did not kill them, but only participated in labor reform. In this way, in the entire Dalian area, plus more than 14,000 mining slaves, there are more than 40,000 people working for free.
The senior officials of the Liaodong Bureau and the working group quickly completed their rule over the entire Dalian area. The first is to unite the Han slaves, who make up the absolute majority of the population. The public trial gave them a bad breath. He tied them into his chariot.
In fact, what these Han slaves hate the most is the coated slaves. I wish I could eat their flesh and drink their blood. It was also this group of slaves who usually oppressed the Han slaves. They are the running dogs of the Jurchens, begging for mercy in front of the Jurchens, and acting domineering in front of the Han slaves.
Li Miao didn't feel sorry for this group of slaves. The key was that there were more than 5,000 people in this group. Including family members, the total number is about 30,000. With a large number of people, Li Miao had to consider the stability of the Liaodong Bureau.
Therefore, measures to reform through labor are adopted for this group of people. And it is a long-term labor reform. As for their families, they were put through short-term labor reform. Behave well and you will soon become a good citizen.
It not only calmed the anger of the Han slaves, but also contributed to the stability of the coated slaves. After all, the coated slaves have to plan for their families, and not many dare to break the jar. The stability of these more than 30,000 garment slaves and their families. Directly affects the stability of the entire Liaodong Bureau.
With the arrival of the Liaodong Bureau working group. In addition, 20,000 bankers trained from Zhuanghe joined. These villagers from Zhuanghekou Port have become the grassroots village heads and managers in Dalian.
The living conditions of the Han slaves in Dalian were very poor, and their food and clothing were far from enough. In fact, there is no shortage of food in the Dalian area, but a large amount of supplies have been transported back to the Jurchens' base camp. This year’s supplies are still at various ports.
Soon the farmers were living a life of adequate food and clothing. Coupled with the supplies from Zhuanghekou Port, chickens, ducks and fish continued to pour into the Dalian area. The food of the Han slaves has also been improved.
The entire Dalian area has a population of more than 500,000. Han slaves accounted for more than 470,000 people. The Liaodong Bureau has the support of some Han slaves, and it is difficult to think about it. Soon all the work was carried out in an orderly manner.
In the entire Dalian area, no less than 300 Han slaves were killed. Some took advantage of the situation and were suppressed and killed. Some are fishing in troubled waters. Others oppressed the family members of the slaves, robbed and raped women, etc.
Both Han slaves and Baoyi slaves soon discovered that the Liaodong Bureau had very strict rules. Even much stricter than the Jurchens. But the Liaodong Bureau is also very disciplined and never bullies good people. There is evidence to follow in everything you do.
Everyone began to discover that with the Liaodong Bureau's rule over the entire Dalian area. The security situation in the entire Dalian area has improved significantly. The lives of ordinary people have been significantly improved.
The common people began to support from the bottom of their hearts. Boys of school age can attend school for free, and there is also a monthly fee available. Adult men become Zhuang Ding and also teach Jeet Kune Do martial arts. The monthly basis is also relatively generous.
The main crossings from Pulandian to Zhuanghe River, river channels and other important places. Thirty-two mausoleums were built urgently. They are all concrete mausoleums. More than 80,000 villagers have been accommodated.
Using the original Zhuanghe guards as the skeleton, a guard force of nearly 15,000 people was formed. As the first line of defense against the Jurchens. The defense of the entire Dalian area has been formed. In addition, there are 5,000 powerful regular security forces.
At present, the Liaodong Bureau is enough to resist the attack of 20,000 to 30,000 elite Jurchens. As the combat power of the guards increases. The first line of defense alone is enough to resist the Jurchens. However, the Liaodong Bureau designed three lines of defense. That is the Three Congling Fort.
Time has entered mid-November, and winter has gradually entered in the Liaodong region. The Jurchens still didn't respond. It seems that the Jurchens will not take any big action this winter. Li Miao also began to breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Miao's luck was astonishing this time. After the Battle of Dalian started, until the entire Dalian area was captured, Li Miao lost nearly half of his luck. In addition, it was catching up with the autumn harvest of the Great Zheng Dynasty. Li Miao's luck began to improve.
Gradually there is a tendency to return to the original state. But the next step is to block the sea area. and a naval battle. Li Miao's luck returned to freezing point, and there was not much left. Fortunately, there is a lot of luck replenished by the autumn harvest. It is now barely half of its original level.
If a large number of elite Jurchens attack this year, Li Miaozhen still doesn’t know how to deal with it? As long as you pass this year's level, your luck next year will be far better than this year's. Every year, the luck of promoting high-quality seeds geometrically doubles.
So when everyone feels that the overall situation has been decided. Only Li Miao knows that the key still depends on his own luck. However, the Jurchens missed this year's counterattack and have lost the opportunity to capture the entire Dalian area.
Li Miao used it to occupy the entire Dalian area. Blockade the entire Liaodong sea area and strangled the Jurchen people by the throat. Restrict the development of the Jurchen people. Attack will save you. Thereby delaying the progress of the Jurchen people, it is now complete.
