Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The guard of Lianshan Pass is called A Lin, whose name translates to "mountain", an inconspicuous general of the Eight Banners.

    But it was this general who was very cautious.  When he heard that "Naodai" had returned, he came to the bank in person, sent only a small boat across the river, and ordered: "Only Naodai's son is allowed to cross the river, and he can take at most two of his relatives. The rest of the soldiers must be confirmed by me."  Come back after your identity!"

    The boat rowed to the other side, Lin Zhidong heard this and understood that it was impossible to cheat.

    Even if you don't pretend to be Nao Dai, the enemy guards of the Qing Dynasty will find other ways to verify.

    "Come here to carry the shellfish, and the rowers will help too," Lin Zhidong said.

    When the three Tartars had all landed, Lin Zhidong drew his knife out of its sheath, and hacked to death the one in front of him.  The other two Tartars were also hacked to death by the dragoons

    Alin could see clearly across the river, and said with a sneer: "Strictly guard the closed city, don't go out!"

    Lin Zhidong sighed: "Tan slaves are not all idiots, I'm afraid this trip will be in vain. Go back!"

    Withdrawing troops is also particular. Lin Zhidong deliberately followed the river bank and withdrew all the way south.  This gave the enemy the illusion that they came from Tongyuan Fort, not Caohe Fort.

    Alin, the general of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, although he seemed calm, his heart was already surging: Tongyuan Fort was actually lost!

    Not just Alin, but ordinary Tartar soldiers also looked terrified.

    What Lianshan Pass and Caohe Fort are all small checkpoints and small fortresses.

    Facing the incoming army, only Phoenix City and Tongyuan Fort can withstand it.  Both Phoenix City and Tongyuan Fort were lost, and Lianshan Pass was the next target. How could they hold it?

    But Lin Zhidong led his troops to withdraw southward. After withdrawing for several miles, he went into the forest again. It took him a full day to go to the northeast to join the main force of the dragoons.

    "Old Lin, we met some Han people in the valley." Bian Hui, a missionary officer hiding in the mountains.

    Lin Zhidong asked: "There are still Han slaves in the mountains?"

    Bian Hui shook his head and said: "Not Han slaves, but Han people under the rule of the Tartars. You can go out of the mountains sixty miles north of Lianshan Pass, close to Liaoyang and Shenyang. Listen to those Han people, they were captured from Beizhili,  The Tatars did not turn them into serfs. There are more Han people like this in Weining and Qinghe. They mainly cultivate the barren land in the mountains, and they can hand over a lot of grain to the Tatars every year.  .¡±

    "In the past two years, the Han people have had a hard time, right?" Lin Zhidong asked.

    Bian Hui said: "A lot of people died of starvation. Dorgon lacked military rations, so he regulated the amount of rations each Han citizen should pay according to the old slave's method. If they fail to pay in one year, each family will kill one. If they fail to pay in two years, the whole family will be killed."  Light!"

    Lin Zhidong gritted his teeth and said, "Tartars are hateful!"

    Bian Hui put the saddle on the horse and said: "Bring all these Han people back, it's not a waste of time."

    "Who is going to withdraw?" Lin Zhidong said with a smile.

    Bian Hui said: "The military rations I carried are exhausted. If I don't leave, I will be hungry. Do you still want to stay and look for opportunities?"

    Lin Zhidong said: "Each of us has an axe. What did we bring it for? Go into the mountains and cut down trees to make ladders! The city wall of Lianshan Pass is not high, and there are not many guards, so we climbed up by surprise at night."

    "What about food?" Bian Hui asked.

    "Kill the horse!" Lin Zhidong was decisive.

    More than 2,000 dragoons, leading the Han people encountered in the mountains, plunged deeper into the mountains in the northeast.

    These Han people are familiar with the terrain and know how to get around to the north of Lianshan Pass.  Even if there are no Han people to guide the way, it is still possible to go around. There are three valley passages, and it is easy to find if you look carefully.

    After going around for a day and a night, Lin Zhidong asked the soldiers to cut down trees and kill relatively thin horses when they were hungry.

    A Lin was tense at Lianshan Pass for three days, when suddenly a Tartar soldier rushed to report: "The Nanman army is besieging Caohebao!"

    This news terrified Alin, but at the same time felt a little fortunate.

    What is horrifying is that when the Datong army captured Caohe Fort, the next target must be Lianshan Pass.  Fortunately, the Datong Army did not directly attack Lianshan Pass.

    The Tazi soldiers at Lianshanguan relaxed collectively when they learned that the Datong Army was in Caohebao.

    They know they must die, and it is better to die late than early.  Moreover, after confirming the location of the Datong Army, he can sleep peacefully these days without having to worry about it all day long.

    Even the cautious Alin began to relax, and took out wine and meat for his family to eat openly.

    Eat and drink enough, wait for the Datong army to kill, and then the whole family will desperately guard the pass.  They had no escape, and if they fled again, they would be Shenyang and Liaoyang. If they fled back, they would be beheaded 100% of the time. Abandoning the customs before a battle was a serious crime.

    &nbspbsp; In the three castles, the cries were loud, and many Tartar civilians were unwilling to abandon their property.

    Fuller Hun personally led the troops to fight, trying to drive away the hundreds of enemy cavalry and make a passage for the Tartars of Tongyuan Fort.

    Seeing the Tartars coming out of the castle, Lin Zhidong smiled, and said to his soldiers: "Stay back a little bit before fighting, don't send the Tartars back to Tongyuan Fort."

    The real function of the surprise attack on Lianshan Pass was to make Tongyuan Fort panic.  The Tartars of Tongyuan Fort either waited to be besieged to death, or immediately chose to break out of the siege.

    As long as there is a glimmer of hope, the Tartars will surely break through. Who wants to be trapped in a castle waiting to die?

    After breaking through the Lianshan Pass, the strategic significance of Tongyuan Fort will be lost in half.  Even if the Tartars choose to stick to it, the Datong Army can still advance from Caohebao and Lianshanguan, but the rear may be attacked at any time.

    Hundreds of dragoons retreated northward for more than ten miles.

    Fuller Hun asked all Tartars over the age of twelve to take up arms to fight, and even Tartar women formed an army.  If they want to survive, they have to rush over with all their strength.

    Lin Zhidong took out the binoculars, looked at the chaotic marching formation of the Tartars, and couldn't help laughing: "The commander of the Tartars is crazy, retreat further. The longer the march, the more chaotic the enemy will be. It is best to drag them to the vicinity of Lianshan Pass and wait for them to retreat."  beat."

    From the raid on Lianshan Pass to the intentional release of the Tartars back to Tongyuan Fort, Lin Zhidong has been playing psychological tactics.  </div&gt
