Chapter 10212: The Tigers Are Out
The cold weapons of the cavalry on both sides are always barbaric and cruel. Looking at the Shanhaiguan city wall, the Po Nu Army side is like a black sea tide and the red melt flow of the Dashun Army quickly intersect. However, the war horses of the Po Nu Army are even taller. The Mongolian horses used by the Dashun Army cavalry on the battlefield are more like low donkeys against the backdrop of the heavy armored cavalry of the Po Nu Army. Since the charge cavalry of the Dashun Army did not form a complete cavalry formation, they were soon diverted by the heavy armored cavalry formation of the Po Nu Army. As the shouts of killing, the two sides spears hitting each other to death, and the cavalry that collided with each other
A large number of people and horses fell to the ground. Since the Dashun Army did not find the weak points of the heavy armor of the Po Nu Army, if the spears that pierced through the heavy armored cavalry armor would be broken by huge inertia. That is, in the hedge battle between the two sides, tens of thousands of spears stabbed out from both sides formed an inverted forest of guns on the battlefield. The heavy armored cavalry with a knife in his right hand soon passed through the Dashun Army's cavalry formation. In this hedge battle, hundreds of heavy armored cavalry fell in the battlefield in the pool of blood, and more casualties were accompanied by the heavy armored cavalry.
The results of the cavalry that penetrated each other were different. The cavalry of the Dashun Army was once again attacked by the light cavalry of the Ponu Army. The three cavalry and one team of the Ponu Army cooperated to kill the Dashun Army cavalry who were chasing the formation of heavy armored cavalry. After more than ten years of war with the grassland people, the cavalry skills became more and more mature. Most of the cavalry of the Dashun Army were border soldiers of the Ming army, and their kung fu skills were far inferior to those of the Mongolian cavalry. At the beginning of this decisive cavalry, the Dashun Army had a problem with the formation of the heavy armored cavalry. After being chasing the formation of the heavy armored cavalry, they encountered the Huofox Camp, which was not many people.
After the light cavalry, they were still passively beaten. The heavy armored cavalry of the Pou Nu Army and the light cavalry of the Firefox camp both faced the enemy head-on, and then the personal guard camp that arrived at the battlefield swallowed up the scattered red cavalry formation with a scattered aura. The cavalry of the personal guard camp rushed from its flanks as soon as they came up, which was very consistent with the most commonly used large inclined attack tactics by General Zhang. This was the case that this time, almost devoured most of the cavalry of the Dashun Army. Hao Yaoqi, a general in the Dashun Army commanded behind the formation, saw that the momentum was wrong, and led his personal guards to flee north immediately.
Originally, the battle was so well-organized that the various units of the Po Slave Army fought in a very well-organized manner that they basically wiped out the main cavalry of the Dashun Army in less than an hour. However, Liu Chong, the commander-in-chief of the front battlefield, seemed to be blinded by victory. He forgot his duty to command the cavalry to continue attacking north. He wanted to pursue Hao Yaoqi, who had fled the battlefield, and then gained a complete victory in the cavalry battle. Just as the commander-in-chief Liu Chong was in full team, Hao Yidao, the commander of the personal guard camp who came from the back, came with dozens of cavalry pegasus. Hao Yidao was on Liu Chong's body.
While slamming the reins of the horse, the horse under his crotch was in pain and his front legs tumbling in the air for several times, splashing mud on the ground. Before Hao Yidao set off, General Zhang specifically reminded him that no matter how much the cost, he must capture the grain village of the Dashun Army. Although the commander Liu Chong is the main general of the battlefield, General Hao Yidao still reminded Liu Chong to act according to the orders of General Zhang. Hao Yidao's reminder made Liu Chong feel cold sweat. He had to be beheaded if he disobeyed the Shuai Order on the battlefield. Liu Chong, who woke up, was grateful to Hao Yidao and organized a large army to attack the Dashun Army's old camp.
The chaotic battlefield made it impossible for the Dashun Army to organize an effective counterattack, and the continuous failures were enough to shake the morale of the army. Even Emperor Li Zicheng chose to abandon everything and leave the battlefield, so the other troops naturally did not have the courage to continue fighting. Zhang Nai withdrew from the "one stone" mountain area and was strongly blocked by the Bailang Camp of the Po Nu Army Huang Zhi's Bailang Camp. Under the protection of the chariot camp, the Bailang Camp divided the Dashun Army into two sections, and the main general Zhang Nai and the Eight Thousand Dashun Army were driven to Baishui Village. Several mountain troops of the Po Nu Army who entered the mountain area from outside the pass surrounded the Eight Thousand Dashun Army.
In the village, Tian Peng, the chief general of the Pou Nu Army, released five Dashun Army prisoners of war, and asked them to send a message that Zhang Nai's army must abandon the sword within half an hour, otherwise the Pou Nu Army would launch a full-scale general attack. Zhang Nai naturally would not surrender in front of the enemy, so he chose to resist on the spot. Tian Peng's four battle camps, he only left the left Erya troops to deal with Zhang Nai, and the rest of the troops continued to pursue the main force of the fleeing. Seeing that the victory of the Pou Nu Army at the Shanhaiguan battlefield was decided, the prince Zhu Cilan was in agitation, and he stood on the city wall and watched the battle for several hours without feeling tired.
From the heart of the prince, Duke of China Zhang Ping'an was originally a foreign vassal of the Ming Dynasty. He used the foreign vassal to restore the prosperous capital of his ancestors. This incident was extremely risky. Although Duke of China Zhang Ping'an had shown loyalty to the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years, with his unpredictable style of conduct, who could guarantee that he did not covet the emperor's throne? So, Prince Zhu Cixuan began to praise the officials around him for his strong slave army, which was the first-class strong army in the world. Zhang Ping'an, who was focused on the war, had not reacted at the beginning, and was just humble to the words of Prince Zhu Cixuan. As Yang Lian came on, he came.
On the city wall, the Pangnu Army sent a comfort to the judicial affairs office to govern the ruling of the judicial affairs office and followed Zhu Cilang's words to praise Zhang Ping'an for using troops as if he was a god. Zhang Ping'an, who was cunning as a fox and wolf, felt something was wrong. Yesterday, Yang Lian, the ruler of the Pangnu Army, sent a letter to Zhang Ping'an, saying that there were too few people around the prince who had plans and wanted to assist the new emperor after recovering the capital. Zhang Ping'an was mentally prepared for Yang Lian's choice to leave him. After all, being able to be the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty is the dream of every civil servant. Mr. Yang Lian straightened out the legal affairs office in the Pangnu Army over the years, and Zhang Ping'an knew the contribution.
Therefore, Zhang Ping'an happily approved the official document reported by Yang Lian and sent someone to give the old man a 10,000 taels of gold to Yang Lian, saying that it was given to Yang Lian to leave Yicheng. However, Zhang Ping'an asked Yang Lian to write twenty characters and listed the content of the inscription. Yang Lian was also very happy and immediately wrote it, which made him miss the wonderful scene of the decisive battle of the Slave Army today. Although Yang Lian's words were hidden very well, Zhang Ping'an still heard the voice of the Xuanwei voice from the constant praise of Yang Lian and the prince. The purpose of their two-singing double acts was nothing more than urging Zhang Ping'an to express his opinion that after defeating the Dashun Army, the Crown Prince Zhu Cilang would enter the Forbidden City, as the greatest hero to defeat the Dashun bandits, he was a nobleman.
The Duke of China Zhang Ping'an should take the initiative to submit a letter to ask the prince to ascend the throne to the throne. With the Duke of China, it can intimidate the slutty people in the court in the future. Considering the pros and cons of the prince's ascension to the future of the slave army, although Zhang Ping'an was unwilling to do so, he had to pretend to be a smile and say that the victory of this battle was entirely based on the power of the prince. From the heart, Zhang Ping'an most hoped that King Yong Zhu Cijiong would take the throne, and a cowardly emperor was far more conducive to control than the ambitious Zhu Cilang. When Zhang Ping'an planned this overall situation earlier, he considered that Prince Zhu Cilang had a great influence and was easier to accomplish. Unexpectedly, Zhu Cilang, who was quite intelligent, was not a slaughter.
Confucianism is prevalent in the Ming Dynasty, and Yang Lian, the leader of the Donglin, has great appeal. If this old man favors the prince Zhu Cilang, it is almost impossible for Zhang Ping'an to replace Zhu Cilang without using his sword. The current weakness of the prince Zhu Cilang is that he does not have his own direct troops and lacks the money to raise soldiers. Although Zhang Ping'an feels helpless, he is also open-minded about his mistakes in his calculations. After all, there is no perfect good thing in this world. The only thing that makes Zhang Ping'an feel better is that the slave army is strong. With this strong army that can shake the whole world, Zhang Ping'an can still perform in the future.
Zhang Ping'an, who had calculated the pros and cons, finally said that once the Slave Army captured the capital, he begged the prince to ascend the throne and became emperor, and asked Yang Lian and a group of civil servants to recommend the new emperor. Yang Lian had been with the Duke of China for many years, and knew that Zhang Ping'an had spoken, and Zhu Ci'ang, as the future new emperor, would have to repay him. Crown Prince Zhu Ci'ang once awarded the title of Prince of China, but Zhang Ping'an was not interested in this noble title at all. Yang Lian also tried it repeatedly on behalf of the prince, and Zhang Ping'an tried it out many times. Zhang Ping'an tried it out in every way.
Zhang Ping'an told Yang Lian in person that the heroes who were named kings of different surnames in the Ming Dynasty were all posthumously conferred their deaths. Zhang Ping'an didn't want to jump down. Today, Duke Hua expressed his support for Zhu Cixuan's ascending the throne. If Yang Lian and his important officials could not understand the true bottom line of Duke Hua, Zhang Ping'an would not do anything first and then collect money. When Yang Lian thought of the silver, he naturally had room to bargain with Duke Hua Zhang Ping'an. Sure enough, Duke Hua proposed in front of the prince and the ministers that the gold and silver coins produced in the Ming Dynasty were circulated. The right to mint gold and silver coins belonged to him. The crown prince Zhu Cixuan never expected that Duke Hua was serious about his affairs.
This extremely shameless demand was put forward. In the eyes of Prince Zhu Cilang, Duke Hua really loved money and became more and more cute as he looked at it. Since the first assistant Zhang Juzheng in Wanli, he had basically paid the silver ingots. However, since the Tianqi Year, there was a loophole in the tax silver in various places, that is, the lack of quality. The quality of silver in wealthy provinces is sometimes worse than that in remote provinces. These corrupt officials have swallowed up huge amounts of tax silver by virtue of their quality. Xuanwei, the quality of gold and silver coins issued by the Ponucheng, has always been stable. If the tax silver in the imperial court could be based on the silver coins in Ponucheng, those officials who wanted to embezzle tax silver would have lost one way.
What's more, Duke Hua's vengeful personality is known to everyone. If anyone dares to move his financial path, Zhang Ping'an will definitely fight him to the end. Just after the prince immediately agreed to Duke Hua's request, Zhang Ping'an was immediately happy. Obviously, Prince Zhu Cilang didn't know what the power of coin minting had to do to the court. After Zhang Ping'an got the power of coin minting, he could indirectly control the financial power of the Ming Dynasty. As long as Zhang Ping'an himself controlled the financial power of the Ming Dynasty, he would also control the military power and employment power of the new Ming court, and then control the entire court.
