Most of the followers were armourless, and only a few wore chain mail. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Everyone looked relaxed, this time they followed the famous Sibeiler parade, targeting the small shareholder Jiang Bing who sneaked over, and the large Dongjiang soldiers would not be afraid, two thousand Jurchen soldiers could defeat tens of thousands of Dongjiang soldiers, and the other party who could kill them had no power to fight back, not to mention that those who followed Sibeile were elite.

A long conch horn sounded in the distance, and Li Mingli and others hurriedly gathered at the entrance of the village.

Baijia Zhuang Dataran glanced at Li Mingli coldly, he didn't like this Han man, because this Han man was powerful and powerful, and had a combat power no less than that of a vest, judging from the long scar on his face and the scar on his body, this person had experienced tragic battlefield battles, and had escape experience that ordinary soldiers did not have, this person was a terrible warrior, but unfortunately he was not a Jurchen.

Taran once suggested that Niu Lu really kick this person out of the account holder, demote him to a flag slave or be a coat for any household, but Tabai refused to agree, and there was no problem in the previous investigations of Li Mingli, Tabai said that he could not find a reason, even if Talan was his own brother, but Talan knew that it was just that the surname Li often bribed Tabai.

He also didn't like Cao Zhenyan, this young Han man had always had a kind smile, which made Taran tired of looking at it, and he wanted to cut off the head of this Han young man with his own hands, and then wipe the blood stains away, and then see if he still had that hateful smile on his face. Because of the identity of the fourteenth elder brother's cronies Bao Yi, even Ta Bai and the others nodded to this person when they passed by just now, and Ta Lan pretended not to see it, as a Jurchen armor soldier, he didn't need to curry favor with a Han Bao Yi.

When Xuqi came over, everyone saw that in the middle of the guard wearing iron armor, there was a fat middle-aged man looking forward to riding over, he was riding a tall green horse, but under the fat figure of Huang Taiji, this horse felt much smaller.

"Servant Tabai has seen the Four Beylers."

Tabai knelt down in Jurchen language to say goodbye, surrounded by kneeling people, some are in Jianzhou Jurchen, some are Mongolian, and a small number of people use Chinese, there are a few account holders who have not been proficient in using Manchurian dialect, so far they are afraid of saying the wrong thing, it is better to use Chinese to ask for peace.

"Get up." Huang Taiji's hand holding the whip was raised, and he said with a radiant look: "Everyone walks with me, be cautious and cautious, obey the dispatch in case of battle, and move forward bravely without retreating." ”

"Yes, the minions and others dare not disobey the master's dispatch."

Tabai and the others got up and were arranged into the array by the attachés around Huang Taiji, and dozens of people followed on horseback and integrated into the team.

The knights walked on the embankment, the river was quite turbulent, you could see a small whirlpool in the river, this is the rising water season, in addition, according to the people upstream, a flash flood broke out a few days ago, although it did not rain, but it may be that the water on the mountain is mainly snow and snow water in winter, slowly gurgling, converging into a stream, and then venting it in the form of a mountain torrent, and finally making the river surge.

Of course, the current river water is not as cold as in winter and spring, and you can still swim in the river at noon, but the river is still cold in the morning and evening, mainly because the mountain floods are relatively cold.

A group of flag slaves were washing clothes by the river, and when they saw this group of horsemen coming, they quickly knelt down and did not dare to raise their heads.

A few guards rode along the embankment, and if these banner slaves dared to raise their heads, they would immediately rush over and kill them all.

Li Mingli was a little nervous, because Erya usually likes to go to the river to wash clothes, the river flows at a high speed, and because there are few residents, no one throws dirty things in the river, the river water is quite clean, and washing clothes on the bluestone by the river is much more comfortable and faster than washing by the well.

He glanced at it a few times, and saw that all the clothes under his knees were wrapping, and there was no figure of Erya, so he immediately relieved himself.

But Li Mingli immediately blamed himself in his heart, he felt that he was too selfish.

With ambivalence, Li Mingli looked at the people who were moving forward.

Obviously, the quality of Huang Taiji's attachés is higher, the cavalry are lined up in a column of three people, far away from the sentry horses and beam horses, the attaché and Huang Taiji are protected in the middle, and the cavalry of Ming Jia looks around with vigilant eyes, and is aware of every move of the humans and birds and beasts in the surrounding Guanzhuang and the wilderness at any time.

Even Huang Taiji himself is quite outstanding, and no one doubts Huang Taiji's combat effectiveness.

Among many rumors, Sibeile was the most brave in the war, and in the most critical battle of Salhu, Juniper's troops refused to defend with a car formation and firearms, and the sound of firearms was deafening, and many Eight Banners soldiers were shocked by firearms and could not break the formation for a while, so they suffered heavy casualties. Huang Taiji led the elite of the white flag, jumped into the formation, invincible, the juniper array was broken, the destruction of the juniper department was the most important battle in the battle of Salhu, won more than half of the juniper, Huang Taiji was greatly praised, and later in the battle of the Hunhe River, Huang Taiji commanded the eight banners and a wing, and also made great achievements.

His image is tall and majestic, the iron armor on his body is beautiful and sturdy, his eyes are full of everything, and he has a kind and gentle smile on his face, his face is more square, not like his body is a little fat, especially from his lips to his chin, which makes people feel that this is a person who is quite confident and self-assertive, and is not easily influenced by others.

In fact, Huang Taiji has his own opinions many times, and most of them can make people know that he is right, even if it is a trade with Hutchison.

In fact, the middle and lower classes of the Jurchens and the Han people of course supported the purchase of more materials and food, only the middle and upper ranks felt that their interests were violated and persuaded the old Khan to cut off most of the trade, even if it was a Han man with different aspirations like Li Mingli, there was no lack of respect for the Dongyu Baylor in front of him, this is a masterpiece, no matter which side he belongs to.

As for the team of Dolgon behind him, it will be looser, the arrangement of the white flag to the old khan may not be convincing, Du Du will take away his own Niu Lu and the people loyal to him, now the white flag is a little fluctuating, and the people sent out are not the strong hands that Du Du is used to, the team is a little scattered, mainly Dolgon does not have any decent manpower to use.

Compared with the gentle-faced and solemn Huang Taiji, Dolgon's expression was much more relaxed, as if he had come out for a pleasant outing.

The procession walked along the river, and in some places there was an embankment, which was very comfortable to walk, and in some parts the embankment was very narrow, and the road was very narrow, and people had to dismount and lead the horses there, and in many places it was directly wasteland, and there were a few destroyed houses here and there, standing alone in the wilderness, so that people knew that there were people here in the past.

On the right hand side is the sparkling river, there are also many deserted villages on the other side of the river, there were originally more than 100,000 or 200,000 people living here, there are nearly 100,000 residents in Kuandian alone, in the place full of deep mountains and dense forests with only a small amount of flat land, the Ming army built forts, the people lived according to the forts, established villages and reclaimed land, hunting and fishing, decades of recuperation and recuperation made this place become a rich place that is not much different from the interior, and now it is in ruins everywhere, together with the original Kuandian horse market, was buried in the dust and smoke of the war.

Huang Taiji's eyes didn't have much emotion, originally all this was caused by them, but he also felt quite sad. On the way, he saw many times where the white bones were piled up, it was obvious that this was the bones that had been washed down in a few months, it should be the corpse of the Wugu Han people killed from winter to spring, no one restrained, and then the murderer was not even willing to bury it hastily, and the corpse was thrown into the river as if it would bring plague, and then it simply went straight to the wilderness, being eaten by wild beasts and birds, and it became a pile of white bones in a few months.

Such a pile of bones made Huang Taiji feel uncomfortable, of course, not because he was compassionate, but because he felt extremely wasteful. Human resources, the most precious thing, are wasted.

After Huang Taiji took power, the Han people were made up of a large number of flags, from Baoyi to the banner of the Han army, and then first five Ding to draw one, and later changed to four Ding to draw one, preparing horses and bows to fight for the Jurchen.

After the Han military flag entered the customs, it gradually became the same existence as the Manchurian and Mongolian Eight Banners, and was trusted by the Qing family, and could even intermarry with the royal family. Kangxi's mother is the Han Army Banner Man, so since then the blood of the Manchu Qing royal family is the Manchu and Han miscellaneous, but that is only in the bloodline, after being pacified and sorted out by the Emperor Taiji, the Han Army Banner People also completely regard themselves as the banner people, after all, after the war and endless massacres, a monarch who treats them equally can make them live and gain fame and wealth.

"Isn't that Fan Xiucai?"

Li Mingli was taken aback when he saw Fan Wencheng, and he couldn't help but say something, and then he came to his senses and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to show the slightest abnormality.

There was a tall and burly young man beside Huang Taiji, also wearing cotton armor and holding a tiger tooth gun, while calmly talking to Huang Taiji, he looked around with a smug look.

Fan Wencheng's identity is just a coat, he took the initiative to surrender with his clan in the forty-seventh year of Wanli, and like many unambitious literati, Fan Wencheng keenly found that the Houjin invasion was a rare opportunity, in order to change his own destiny he took the initiative to surrender, and for the Houjin upper echelons to give advice.

But it's a pity that the current ruler is Nurhachi, the old Khan's life is spent in the struggle and suspicion with the Ming Dynasty, and Nurhachi is in Li Chengliang's general military palace to learn the method of battle formation, the contradiction between the Ming warriors and the literati is deep-rooted, Nurhachi still has a little incense for the generals of Liaodong, from his attitude towards the Ming generals, it can be seen that the surrendered martial artists can be treated well even if they don't have a few subordinates, and the surrendered civil officials are either killed directly, or they don't take it seriously, There are very few records of the Ming civil officials in the old Manchu files, and there is a different attitude towards Jiangmen.
