After a while, an earth-shattering shout of killing sounded in Manchu language outside Da'ankou, and countless torches instantly rose from the night and merged into a fire dragon, which flowed directly from the water gate. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The 3,000 left wing army of the Later Jin, plus the 1,000 Mongol army that had already surrendered, entered the Da'ankou Pass with the momentum of the wind and clouds. They were followed by three or four thousand enslaved enslaves who were in charge of guarding and transporting the looted goods.

Yue Tuo, the commander of the Left Wing Army, stood outside the city, looking triumphantly at the scene of the fire in Da'ankou.

"Jierharang, see it, in less than half an hour, we have attacked Da'ankou, and the Ming army is really vulnerable!"

Zierharang smiled faintly and said, "Does Yue Beile have to thank those Han people for calling flowers? If they hadn't opened the water gate, I'm afraid it would have been delayed for a while." ”

Yue Tuo smiled contemptuously and said, "These traitors of the Han people are like vultures on the grassland, as long as you can reward them with a few pieces of meat that are about to stink, they will be desperate to help you peck people, so why talk about thanking or not thanking." Moreover, there are such Han people, and without them, we can still find someone else to replace them. ”

"There are indeed many Han people who are like vultures, but there are also many Han people who cannot be tamed like wild wolves. ”

Yue Tuo smiled even more disdainfully, "Then we will kill them all, as long as the leading wild wolves are dead, the rest will become docile domestic dogs! Well, I hope there's still one in there, haha. ”

In the darkness of the night, the beacon tower lit up a fire, which was more powerful than the wolf smoke used during the day, and it was particularly dazzling. This is the only thing that the remaining Ming army can do.

After the Later Jin Left Wing Army broke through Da'ankou, a bloody massacre soon began. Da'ankou was not large, with a total of more than 300 defenders, and it was almost slaughtered in less than half an hour, leaving only about 20 old and weak soldiers left.

After Yue Tuo heard the news, he ordered the twenty or so old and weak soldiers to be escorted to the city, and then pulled up the red flag he was holding at the head of the city, saying that he would take these 20 or so heads to sacrifice the flag to commemorate the victory in the first battle.

When Zilharang heard this, he stepped forward and persuaded, "Yue Beile, before sending the army, the Great Khan has an order, and this crusade against the tyrants needs to be comforted along the way to the great gold virtue, and be kind to the surrendered troops and the people. ”

During the previous Nurhachi period, the Later Jin implemented an extremely brutal policy of oppression against the Han Chinese in Liaodong. For example, he moved a large number of Jurchens to live here, and in the name of coexisting with the Han people, it didn't take long for him to turn his face and change his mind, and even listed all the Han people as Aha, that is, slaves, and all Han houses, land, including wives and children, were all Jurchen slaves, and the Jurchens had the right to dispose of them at will, which instantly intensified the contradiction and caused fierce resistance from the Han people. In order to suppress the Han Chinese rebellion, Nurhachi carried out several massacres that exterminated humanity, and the reasons for the massacres became more and more arbitrary each time. For example, in the ninth year of the Mandate of Heaven, Nurhachi actually ordered the slaughter of "grainless people", the so-called "grainless people", that is, Han people whose per capita rations were less than four buckets, and these people were all slaughtered. Under this incomprehensible "divine logic", the Han people were almost slaughtered.

This brutal and ignorant extermination policy directly led to the growing hatred of the Han people towards the Later Jin. One of the important reasons why Yuan Chonghuan's Liaodong defense line was solid was that it absorbed a large number of Liao people, who had a deep blood feud with the Houjin majority, so they were not like the Ming armies in other places that were about to collapse at the touch of a button, but showed extremely strong combat power and fighting spirit. With such soldiers, coupled with the fact that Liaodong was full of fortified cities and clear fields, it was difficult for Yuan Chonghuan to hold Liaodong, so Huang Taiji had to avoid Liaodong and detour to Mongolia and Gulai to enter the Central Plains.

In addition, the massacre of Han people also caused a shortage of labor and talents in the Later Jin, and it was impossible to achieve further development. Houjin itself is a nomadic people, economy, science and technology have long relied on the Han people, and after the war with the Ming Dynasty, the border trade was greatly hit, he could also use the Han people in Liaodong, but the Han people in Liaodong were almost killed by him, so the Houjin soon fell into stagnation in the economy and technology, and with the continuous increase of Houjin's territory and ambitions, this drawback became more and more apparent, and finally caused the Houjin economic difficulties, serious shortage of commodities and food, forcing him to break into the Great Wall and extort money and food from the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, having learned the lesson of Nurhachi, Huang Taiji also began to try to restrain his subordinates. However, in the eyes of the Houjin people, this kind of order is simply dispensable. Because he also added a sentence in the order, that is, "what is obtained must be handed over", isn't it clear that it is still looting?

Yue Tuo showed great ridicule at Zilharang's words, and said, "Jierharang, don't you also want to learn from the people of the Ming Kingdom to talk about benevolence and righteousness, right? Haha, that's just an excuse for cowards to beg for mercy!"

Zilharang shook his head helplessly, knowing that Yue Tuo was a stubborn person, and as his deputy, he could not change his mind, so he didn't say anything more.

Yue Tuo waved his hand and watched with a smile as more than thirty human heads fell to the ground. As if it wasn't enough, he shouted at everyone again, "Warriors, quickly find out if there are any Han people left, and today we will use blood to make our red flag redder!"

But at this time, I only heard a report from the Sentinel Malai, saying that the Malan battalion of the Ming army in the west had come to help.

Yue Tuo was very interested, stretched out his big hand, and said, "Bring the weapon!"

The two strong men carried a weapon over, but it was a big mace, more than two meters long, with a diameter of about 40 centimeters, made of pure iron, which looked like it weighed 200 catties, but it was as light as a wooden stick in his hand.

Yue Tuo took a mace, rode a group of sturdy war horses, and led more than a hundred cavalry to kill the enemy troops in the Malan camp.

The remaining soldiers and horses with red flags saw that the commander actually went into battle in person, and hurriedly followed.

The Malan battalion was led by Liu Bufang, the commander-in-chief, with a total of 500 horse infantry. Liu Bufang is a fierce general, who has been in the army for more than ten years, and has been promoted from a small soldier to the general position by virtue of his military merits. Not only is he able to lead the troops well, but his personal cultivation is not low, and now he is at the level of the fifth rank of the Xuantong Realm.

Coincidentally, Liu Bufang also used a mace, but the model was smaller than Yue Tuo.

When he was less than a mile away from Da'ankou, when he saw the city tower in flames, Liu Bufang felt that something was wrong in his heart, thinking that Da'ankou might have been captured. The enemy was outnumbered, and if he dared to kill him, he would probably suffer a big loss, so he hurriedly reined in his horse and wanted the troops to return in place.

But at this moment, I saw a group of horsemen suddenly rushing in front of me, covering and killing with great momentum.

He knew very well that if he let the army turn around and retreat at this time, it would be tantamount to killing himself. When they met on a narrow road, the brave won, so he yelled, "Attack!"

The five hundred Ming army responded violently, "Kill!"

Liu Bufang took the lead with a thick and large mace and rushed towards the enemy.

But I saw that a burly man also came out of the opponent's formation, with a pigtail like a rat's tail on the back of his head, and a mace in his hand that was the same as his own, but it was one size bigger than his own.

Knowing that the other party was not easy to deal with, Liu Bufang still gritted his teeth and roared again, "Kill!"

The two horses and two maces met in an instant, and at the moment of misalignment, there could only be a "dang" sound, and Liu Bufang suddenly flew off the horse like a kite with a broken string and fell to the ground.

A mouthful of blood spurted out with a "poof", and Liu Bufang looked at the other party in disbelief, the leader of Jiannu in his early thirties.

Yue Tuo's legs exerted a slight force, jumped up in an instant, and let the war horse rush into the Ming army's formation, while he himself came to the sky above Liu Bufang, raised his mace and hammered it down fiercely.

The mace burst through the air, emitting a burst of scorching heat.

"Boom!"

Liu Bufang's head suddenly turned into countless fragments.

"Boom!"

His body jumped in all directions!

"Boom!"

......

Whether it is the Ming army or the Houjin army, all of them are awe-inspiring and trembling in their hearts!

When the Ming army saw that their generals were killed in such an easy and tragic way, the army's morale was immediately in turmoil.

After more than a thousand, the Jin army rushed up and surrounded the Ming regiment of Malan Yingming. After that, more Houjin troops rushed over......

October 27, the second year of Chongzhen, early morning. Daankou was broken, and more than 500 reinforcements from the Malan battalion were wiped out.

Houjin's iron cavalry finally stepped into the land of the Central Plains as he wished.
