Descending?

Surrendered Japanese soldiers?

Zheng Duo said a historical event that Wei Liangchen saw when he thought of his previous life, that is, the killing of Nuerha Chi by three hundred Japanese soldiers.

After the defeat of the Ming army in the Battle of Sarhu, more than half of the Korean troops who accompanied the expedition at that time were also killed and wounded, and the encircled Korean Marshal Jiang Hongli led more than 5,000 people to surrender to Houjin, and among these Korean surrendered troops, there were 300 Japanese soldiers.

At that time, many Later Jin generals advocated killing all the Korean soldiers and surrendering the generals, but Nurhachi took in the Korean soldiers under the persuasion of his second son Daishan, and was very close to Jiang Hongli, and even married Daishan's adopted daughter to Jiang Hongli's second son.

Jiang Hongli was grateful to Dade and flattered Nurhachi: "There are 300 pro-soldiers in our army, all of whom are brave and brave, good at using swords, invincible in the world, if Emperor Dajin reuses them, they can make immortal feats." ”

In the Later Jin army, there were about 100 Japanese soldiers who fled from Korea to the Jurchens in the Eight Banners. These Japanese soldiers were very brave in battle, and they were not weaker than the full soldiers, so Nurhachi happily asked Jiang Hongli to bring 300 Japanese soldiers into the city for drills.

Unexpectedly, when the Japanese soldiers heard about it, they felt that it was a great shame, they thought that they had been favored by North Korea for many years, how could they be driven by the "dog and sheep" like Jurchens? So, 300 people secretly conspired, and during the drill tomorrow, they made a surprise move, beheaded Nurhachi, and fled back to North Korea.

The Japanese soldiers were loyal and fierce, but after plotting, they reported to the commander Jiang Hongli. Jiang Hongli was stunned after hearing this, and said: "The stakes are very high, and you can't act rashly." Then, this person secretly told Nurhachi overnight: The Japanese have rebellious intentions, and it is advisable to prepare for it.

As a result, 300 Japanese soldiers were surrounded and annihilated by the Jin army, and before they died, the Japanese soldiers were trapped and still fighting, killing and wounding many Jin soldiers.

Afterwards, Nurhachi set up a banquet to thank Jiang Hongli and said: "Fortunately, you saved me, and I swear to treat you with heart from now on!" "I asked the North Koreans how the military spirit is? Will there be a rebellion too?

Jiang Hongli patted his chest and promised: "North Koreans are different from Japanese people, they are timid and afraid of death, so don't worry." ”

What happened later turned out to be as Jiang Hongli said, and the 5,000 Korean soldiers who surrendered their gold have always been loyal to Nurhachi. They were also the first formed firearms soldiers in the Jin army before Kong Youde and others in the Ming Dynasty invested gold, and they played a big role in the Jin army's attack on the towns of the Ming Dynasty.

"In the fifteenth year of Wanli, Gu Yangqian, the governor of Liaodong, had captured a sporadic Japanese prisoner, I heard that Gu Governor incorporated these Japanese prisoners into the army, and when he conquered the Mongols, he hid the Japanese soldiers in the Chinese army, and when the battle was in full swing, the Japanese soldiers suddenly jumped out and cut off the legs of the Mongolian cavalry with sharp Japanese swords, resulting in heavy casualties among the Mongols and their defeat and flight."

Li Yongzhen is worthy of being well-read and well-known, and he also said something about the Japanese soldiers. It's just that these Japanese soldiers who were sheltered by Gu Yangqian didn't end up very well, and they were all killed in a fierce battle with the Mongols.

At present, the main source of Liaodong Japanese soldiers is the Japanese army that surrendered in the battle to resist Japanese aggression and aid Korea.

Li Yongzhen said that he had seen some records in the "Essentials of the Restoration of the Motherland" written by Song Yingchang, the former Liaodong Jinglu, saying that in the summer of the 20th year of Wanli, more than 300 Japanese soldiers surrendered to the Ming army. During the armistice between the two armies, the number of Japanese soldiers who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and fled because they could not endure the harsh living conditions surged.

Li Yongzhen thought about it carefully again, and said: "I seem to remember that at that time, the emperor once issued an order to Li Rusong to carry out a large-scale reorganization of the Japanese surrendered troops, and some of the elites were transferred to Jizhen, and the rest were scattered to Xuan and Da Towns to resist the northern captives. But I don't know what happened to these soldiers. ”

What happened?

Wanli ordered the Japanese troops to be sent to Jizhen and Xuanda, apparently to let these Japanese soldiers serve as cannon fodder against the Mongols. Now, more than ten years have passed, and even if these Japanese soldiers are not killed in battle, I am afraid that few of them will survive.

Zheng Duo glanced at Li Yongzhen, who had no beard, and said, "This father-in-law doesn't know that the Japanese soldiers under General Liu Wei are the most numerous. ”

Speaking of Liu Ling, Liangchen remembered that during the Korean War, Liu Ling had set a trap of "Hongmen Banquet", preparing to capture the Japanese army's chief general, Konishi Yukicho, but was unexpectedly escaped by a "general manager of Uchi" in the army, resulting in a failure.

In the Ming Dynasty, Qianzhong always commanded about 500 to 1,000 middle-level officers, and this "Japanese commander" commanded the Japanese soldiers who descended to the Ming Dynasty. Then, it can be roughly inferred that there were at least hundreds of Japanese soldiers in Liu Wei's battalion.

This group of Japanese soldiers followed Liu Wei to fight in Korea, and also returned to China with Liu Wei after the war. After Liu Wei returned to China, he participated in the rebellion of Yang Yinglong in Banzhou, and after that, he defended in Sichuan for a long time.

"The North Korean side knew that General Liu Wei was secretly sheltering Japanese soldiers, and they were very dissatisfied, but they did not dare to offend the generals, so they had no choice but to ask General Liu to drive the Japanese soldiers out of the city and not let them enter the city."

Liangchen noticed that Zheng Duo had obvious hatred on his face when he talked about North Korea. He didn't know that this Zheng Duo was originally a Korean, but he was exiled to the Ming Dynasty because he killed his father.

It is not difficult for Wei Liangchen to understand that the Koreans, who were invaded by the Japanese army and almost lost their country, hated the Japanese soldiers, but for the generals of the Ming Dynasty, the Japanese soldiers who were brave in battle and skilled in bird guns were definitely elite soldiers.

Especially Liu Wei, as long as the soldiers can fight and are willing to work hard, no matter which country you are, he has no taboos. In fact, according to the records of historical records, the source of Liu Ling's subordinates is very complicated, the main force is Han Chinese, but there is no lack of Mongolian, Jurchen, Korean, Japanese, and even Burmese soldiers, Thai soldiers, and Annam soldiers. In later generations, the army led by this General Liu can be regarded as a multinational force.

Liu Wei is a person, Liangchen is very admired, this person has fought a lot of battles in his life, Ping Burma Kou, Ping Luo Xiong, Ping Korean Wa, Ping Bo Chieftain, Ping Naked, hundreds of battles of all sizes, and his prestige shocked the sea. Unfortunately, in the end, a generation of famous generals fell to Abu Darigan.

The Battle of Abu Dariam was also the heaviest loss of the Ming Dynasty in the Battle of Sarhu, and the casualties of the Later Jin Dynasty were also the largest battle.

At present, this veteran general is still defending in the southwest, and he is a typical local warrior who dominates one side. Because his subordinates are subordinate to themselves, and Liu Wei treats his soldiers well, his subordinates can fight to the death.

"Sheren, I also heard that General Liu's subordinates have good warlike soldiers, and they are all elite." It was Levi who spoke, and he had been to the Southwest.

"The Japanese soldiers are not but surrendered, how can they fight for the good and fight to the death for my Ming Dynasty?" Tian Gang had doubts.

What the reason is, in fact, does not need to be explained. Those Japanese soldiers who surrendered understood that it was impossible for them to return to their hometowns in this life, so it was better to stay in the Ming Dynasty and follow the generals who were similar to the daimyo in their hometown. After doing a good job of being promoted to an official and making a fortune, he married a wife and had children in the Ming Dynasty, and became a real Han Chinese. If you can't do it, this life won't be theirs anyway.

"At first, the Koreans hated the Japanese soldiers so much that they often reprimanded them when they saw that I was going to take them in. In the later period, there were also the same. They placed their Japanese capital in northern Korea, and the defense often attacked their Jurchens. I have heard that these Japanese surrenderers were also loyal to the DPRK and that the war was very effective, so much so that there was a saying in Korea that they had to surrender to the Japanese. Zheng Duo said.

"It's useful, but right now, where can I find these people?" Liangchen didn't care about other things, he only cared about how many people there were in Liaodong and where they were.

Zheng Duo said: "Don't worry, there is a man named Dadao under my subordinates, who is from a widow background. He has always been in contact with the Japanese people in Liaodong, and if the people can give them some freedom, I dare to guarantee that these people will definitely work for them. ”

Liangchen was listening, and hurriedly interrupted Zheng Duo: "Wait, you mean that these widows are now being imprisoned?" ”

Zheng Duo nodded: "It's not that I'm locked up, it's just in the mine." ”
