Chapter 139 Internal Struggle among Jiannu
Huang Degong and He Bao are training the Tiger Spray Army, and Zhang Shize is also stepping up his training of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
The Military War Bureau was working hard to make guns and ammunition, and Zhou Yuji led the East Palace Guards to patrol around the capital to inspect the city defense.
Sun Yingyuan's task is obviously very urgent. He is eliminating the old, weak and weak soldiers in the original Beijing camp.
The method is to ask the soldiers from the East Palace Guard to lead them in physical training, five kilometers of cross-country running every morning, one hundred sit-ups, fifty push-ups, and three hours of formation...
Ordinarily, this amount of training is not very demanding, and the soldiers in the Beijing camp who were well-trained in the early days should be able to do it easily, but now the Beijing camp is almost all veteran soldiers, and they cannot withstand the torment at all.
Almost all of them could barely survive the five-kilometer cross-country run, but thousands of people couldn't pass the fifty push-ups. Even if they barely passed, they failed in the three-hour formation training.
Sun Yingyuan did not directly eliminate them on the first day, but decided to let them adapt first, and prepare to start ruthless elimination from the second day. If they fail to meet the standards, they will be eliminated decisively.
All the armies were nervously preparing for war, and Zhu Cixiang was leisurely making money, and did not take Baodi's slaves seriously. He knew that Azige did not dare to lead the slaves to attack the capital.
Huang Taiji's order to Azig was to plunder, and no team could attack the Ming capital. He was worried that attacking the Ming capital would arouse the Ming army's fighting spirit and fight to the death with them.
The actual situation is indeed similar to Zhu Cixiang's imagination. At this time, Azig was living a fairy-like life in Baodi, with beautiful women, meals, and huge plundered wealth, which made Azig almost lost.
He felt that these were the days of the Master. What was so good about Liaodong? The cold weather and lack of supplies were not as fun as the Ming Dynasty Gyeonggi area. He did not want to return to Liaodong.
As for the threat from the Ming army, Azig didn't take it to heart at all. Without using his Zhengbai Banner, the Eight Mongolian Banners and the Two Tatars of the Han Army could fight against any Qinwang troops along the way!
The two Tatars were weak chickens before, but after they surrendered and became slaves, they all fought fiercely. They chased the Ming army to kill them in battle, and they were even more fierce than the Tatars when they looted.
Azig also didn't pay much attention to the disastrous defeat of Yangu Li and Abatai. The three Dorgon brothers were originally at odds with Huang Taiji. Yangu Li and Abatai were Huang Taiji's confidants, so it would be best if they all died.
Azig was brave and invincible. He did not think that the Ming army was so fierce. The defeat of Yanguli and Abatai was completely incompetent. This further showed the bravery and invincibility of their white flags and white flags.
When he heard that Abatai had led thousands of defeated soldiers to join forces, Azige felt so happy and numb in his heart. Huang Taiji had gone too far to bully others, and finally I felt proud and proud.
When Abatai saw his twelfth brother, Azig was still holding a fair and tender concubine from a Ming Dynasty official. Abatai suddenly wanted to curse.
But when he thought that Azig was the head coach this time and that he and Yanguli ended up in a disastrous defeat, he instantly lost the courage to blame Azig and could only plead in a low voice:
"Twelfth Brother, something bad happened. My brother-in-law was defeated miserably and was captured by Ming Gou. The seventh elder brother led the rescue and was defeated again by the Ming army. Please twelfth brother quickly send troops to rescue my brother-in-law Yang Guli..."
Azig pretended to be surprised:
"What? Our brave and invincible concubine Yang Guli and the seventh elder brother of the Qing Dynasty were defeated miserably? Seventh elder brother, don't joke with the twelfth brother. This is absolutely impossible. A few days ago, all the soldiers under Zhengbai Banner chased after the Ming army to kill them.
kill……"
Azig deliberately raised Yanguli and Abatai high, and said that his subordinates could kill the Ming army. Abatai was immediately embarrassed. This reckless man was obviously mocking him and Yanguli.
Abata's tone gradually became tougher:
"Twelfth brother, my brother-in-law was captured alive by Ming Gou. This is no small matter. It has never happened before in the history of the war between the Qing Dynasty and Ming Gou. The emperor will definitely pursue it. As the general who enters the border this time, twelfth brother must find a way to rescue E.
Prince Consort……"
Azig was furious:
"Seventh Brother, we divided our troops into three groups and entered the pass. I swept through Ming Gou all the way. Why did your two armies suffer a disastrous defeat? Is it because you are incompetent or Ming Gou is brave? Your Majesty knows better than you and I.
If you can't defeat Ming Gou, why don't you send someone to ask for help from me? Even if you can't defeat Ming Gou, wouldn't it be possible for the cavalry to save you and escape? Why is my brother-in-law Yang Guli still being arrested? They are all idiots..."
Abatai was so scolded by Azig that he hurriedly retorted:
"Twelfth brother, it's not what you think. There is a Ming army equipped with very powerful firearms. They can shoot at two hundred paces. Our Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty suffered casualties in their hands, especially their crown prince. That is called a brave man.
, the Eight Banners warriors armed with a pair of 800-pound sledgehammers suffered heavy casualties..."
Azig looked at Abatai speechlessly. He suspected that his seventh elder brother was frightened by the Ming army and went crazy.
What kind of firearm can shoot two hundred steps, what kind of prince is holding an eight hundred kilogram sledgehammer, isn't that nonsense...
Abatai saw Azig's disbelief and wanted to explain, but Azig interrupted him with a wave of his hand:
"Okay, Seventh Brother's defeat is a defeat. Is it necessary to talk such nonsense? No ghost will believe what you said. Go down and have a good rest. Brother Twelve will avenge you in a while..."
Hearing that he would be revenged for some time, Abate became anxious again:
"Twelve brothers can't do it. My brother-in-law will be dead in a while. We must send troops today and tomorrow to rescue our brother-in-law, otherwise we won't be able to go back to see the emperor..."
Azig did not want to continue to struggle with Abatai, so he immediately shouted:
"Come here, help Brother Qi down and have a good rest. If he is really bored, find him some beauties from the Ming Dynasty to play with..."
"No, twelfth brother..."
Yangu Li wanted to say something else, but he was forcibly taken away by Jia La Ezhen, a subordinate of Azige...
Seeing his seventh brother being taken away by his subordinates, Azige felt very happy. Now Huang Taiji had lost two powerful henchmen. Seeing how he would still dare to yell at his three brothers in the future.
Azig suddenly wanted to laugh loudly:
"A group of incompetent people actually used such excuses to deceive this king. It's really funny..."
Jiading Bo Mansion
Zhou Kui, the head of the state, looked at the fingers and toes sent by the kidnappers. He was anxious, angry, distressed, and exhausted. The money was gone, and another finger and toe of his grandson was cut off.
Zhou Kui endured the pain in his heart and slowly opened the letter just sent by the kidnapper:
"Master Zhang, if you don't pay the money before dark today, tomorrow you will see Zhou Tong's little brother, and all the bad things you have done will be kept in Chongzhen's study..."
"Wow……"
Zhou Kui spurted blood again.
Seeing Zhou Kui vomiting blood again, Zhou Kui's son hurriedly knelt down to comfort him:
"Father, please save Tong'er. You are just such a grandson. If Tong'er has three strengths and two weaknesses, the Zhou family will never succeed. Money is not as important as Tong'er..."
Seeing this, the housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him:
"Uncle, you must think clearly, the young master's safety is the most important, and money can be earned at any time.
After the slaves are released from seclusion, they can earn back by sending a few more grains and iron tools.
I have already given the kidnapper one hundred thousand taels. If the young master cannot be rescued, the previous one hundred thousand taels of silver will be thrown away..."
