Chapter 548: Batulu per capita, Wu Sangui per capita!
North Korea, Seoul Prefecture, Goyang County. November 13th.
After three days of marching, the 100,000 Qing troops led by Emperor Kangxi have now arrived in Gaoyang County, which is only more than 30 miles away from the city wall of Seoul, and have set up camp along the Han River that is about to freeze...
The presence of Emperor Kangxi was in the small Gaoyang County.
At this moment, in the main hall of the former Gaoyang County government office where the current Emperor of the Qing Dynasty was walking, there were all the military ministers of the Eight Banners wearing yellow mandarins and ruby crests or Dongzhu crests.
Shan Dutong, and several princes of the Zasak Banner in Mongolia.
The reason why these people all wear yellow jackets is that each of them has given Batulu the title of bravery, and everyone has worn the yellow jacket. It is true that there are many brave men in the court - this Batulu has just started to "issue
"At that time, whoever got one was as if he had got some kind of treasure, which was very honorable. But after too many were given, those who were in charge of the army and led the troops would not be able to see anyone without a batulu or a yellow mantle.
So they would ask for it from Kangxi!
This happened to Emperor Kangxi in history, and he had to arrest people and send them to Ningguta for labor reform.
Can I get Batulu and Yellow Jacket by myself? This can only be given by the emperor, and the people below can take over.
But now Kangxi had to coax those military leaders. How much could a short-term Baturu add a yellow jacket? How could he not give it? And he had given so much, and he felt uncomfortable if he didn't get it.
, I feel neglected by the emperor, and the brothers below also feel shameless...so I'd better give it!
Just making concessions to the military leader may not be able to stop it once it is started. It is easy to make more and more concessions, and eventually the military leader becomes a warlord!
However, the short-term benefits brought by delegating power to military leaders are still very considerable! For example, the combat effectiveness of the troops is improved, and the maintenance cost of the troops is reduced at the same time.
I don’t know whether he was given a gift of Batulu, a yellow mantle, or whether he was almost “spoiled” by Kangxi. These ministers, and the princes all spoke in a much louder voice, taking advantage of Kangxi’s absence.
, all chatting and laughing loudly with each other.
Kangxi gathered an army of 100,000 this time, including eight of the Eight Banners New Army's ten thousand people in Gushan, one from each banner. In Monan, the cavalry of the Four Mongolian Leagues in the host country drew 20,000, led by four princes.
.
There are a total of twelve generals who lead the army, plus twelve commanders or deputy commanders, a total of twenty-four people. Now there are yellow jackets per capita, and each one is more impressive than the other.
Including the four Mongolian kings of Zasak County, the troops they led have undergone radical changes in the past two or three years.
And the combat effectiveness of the troops, at least in their own eyes, has been greatly improved!
In the process of sending troops to North Korea this time, they, who are experienced soldiers, can feel it. The speed of gathering and marching of the troops has been significantly improved, and they are also more able to endure hardships. After entering North Korea, there were several incidents with North Korean rebels.
The battles were all fought cleanly... and they were all won by big scores!
If one or two people on my side died, the Koreans would leave corpses everywhere!
In these battles, the Fusiliers of the Qing Army relied on the fire support of sugar-powdered explosives or sugar-free explosives fired from the Weiyuan Cannon, and could often easily approach the enemy. After a few rounds of firing, the opponent basically collapsed. In the end, the Eight Banners
The cavalry came on stage to clean up, and the battle was over with one charge.
In the Battle of Pyongyang, which was the largest battle since entering the DPRK, the North Korean rebels defended the city, while the Qing army launched a strong attack on Mudantai, which is known as a natural hazard. With the support of the sugar-poison bombs fired by the Weiyuan cannon, the Qing army held the
The Qing army with flintlock guns stormed Mudantai with only one charge. In less than an hour, they completely captured the fortress in the north of Pyongyang and killed thousands of Korean rebels, while suffering only ten casualties.
Most of the others were scalded by the "golden juice" and hot porridge while climbing the ladder.
At that time, those who guarded Pyongyang were all regular troops from the original Kingdom of Korea, still under the banner of the Ming Army. It is said that there were Ming Army officers from Seoul under command, but the result was still such a disastrous defeat.
This shows that the Korean soldiers are simply helpless adou... And the Zhu Heji in Seoul (Zhu Heji is everywhere now, I don’t know who is real?) actually recruited a large number of Korean soldiers, thinking
Let this group of cowards who are only greedy for life and fear death carry flintlock guns and shoot at the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers, isn't this embarrassing!
Moreover, the journey south from Kaicheng seemed to prove that the advantage lay with the Qing Dynasty.
Because Seoul could not even dispatch a small group of harassing troops to lag behind the Qing army, Imjin River, Paju and Goyang County, the gateway to the north of Seoul, simply gave up.
So everyone feels that the chances of winning in Seoul this time are great... The emperor has said that if Seoul is captured, the sword will not be sealed for ten days!
With this benefit clearly in front of us, can we not let the voices of these Baturus get louder and louder?
"The Emperor has arrived!" Following the voice of Little Guizi's father-in-law, the group of Baturus in yellow jackets immediately stopped talking, and each of them happily knelt down and saluted Emperor Kang Mazi as he walked in.
Long live. Then I heard Kangxi's voice that couldn't hide his smile: "Pingshen, Pingshen!"
Everyone got up and looked up at Kangxi with a smile. They saw Kang Mazi, dressed in court clothes, sitting on the throne, smiling and twirling beads, with a winner's smile on his pockmarked face.
Kangxi smiled and said: "I called everyone here today because I want to discuss with you how to fight in Seoul? The weather has been getting colder and colder these days, and the Han River is about to freeze... The Han River is freezing...
Although it is convenient for us to march in the end, we can also walk on the ice of the Han River to the south bank of the Han River and go directly to capture Namhansan Fortress. However, Zhu Heqi, who does not know whether it is true or not, may also abandon the Han River and go south. The people in Seoul City
Ordinary people may also follow suit by walking across the ice of the Han River and retreating to Asan.

Wang Fuchen came out of the class with a smile, then knelt down to Kangxi and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I advocate starting the war as soon as possible!"
Kangxi nodded and asked again: "If the rebels hold on to Seoul, can we break the city cleanly this time like we did when we attacked Pyongyang?"
Wang Fuchen said: "Your Majesty, I have a plan that can force the thieves in Han City to take the initiative to attack or abandon the city in a hurry."
"What's the best strategy?" Kangxi asked.
"The slave suggested that the emperor divide his troops into two groups. The main force can approach Seoul along the Han River to the south. The slave can lead the headquarters as a partial division to seize Beihan Mountain." Wang Fuchen said, "Seoul is between Beihan Mountain and Han River. If Beihan Mountain is
If I own it, Seoul will lose its barrier, and the Han River will soon freeze. So the rebels will either abandon the city in a hurry, or send troops to fight in a hurry."
Kangxi asked again: "What if the rebels set up troops on Beihan Mountain first?"
Wang Fuchen patted his chest: "I am willing to guarantee with my life that I will conquer Beihan Mountain for Lord Long Live. However... I also want to ask for a reward from Lord Long Live for my son!"
This is about negotiating conditions!
Kangxi frowned slightly, then glanced at the two dozen "Batulu" in the hall, and saw that all of them looked expectant.
Needless to say, everyone wants to negotiate terms!
Thinking of this, Kangxi smiled generously: "Tell me, what do you want? Do you want to be the first to enter the city and rob it?"
"Your Majesty, I don't dare to think of such a good thing." Wang Fuchen said with a smile, "I just want to find a job to stay behind for my brothers after Korea is pacified!"
Your kid wants to be the "Pingdong King"? Kangxi immediately understood that this Wang Fuchen wanted to be the "Wang Sangui"!
However, Kang Mazi remained calm and looked at the other military ministers and governors present with a smile: "Tuhai, Bahai, Mingzhu, Suo'etu, Tong Guogang... What do you think?
Do you want to stay in North Korea?"
Bahai was the first to "kneel out" and said: "Your Majesty, this servant can just guard Shengjing for Your Majesty."
Kangxi nodded, but immediately felt that something was wrong... Staying in Shengjing? Isn't that just guarding one side? You are "Ba Kexi"!
"Your Majesty," Tu Hai continued Ba Hai's words, "after the victory over Korea, I am willing to take over Wu Yingqi in Shaanxi for Your Majesty!"
Kangxi said in his heart: "Well, Tu Hai, do you also want to be Tu Youde, Tu Jimao?"
Although he thought so in his heart, Kangxi still had to smile and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, with good ministers like you guarding the four sides for me, the Qing Dynasty can sit back and relax... Then I will
