    Under the attack of firearms, the invincible charge of the Mongolian cavalry was instantly shattered. Although Li Zicheng's soldiers were not very skilled in operation, the lethality of the weapons was still there. This was their original attribute, not because of the level of the operator.  And something has changed.

    Gradually, the soldiers seemed to have mastered a little bit of the know-how and began to learn to aim. The casualties of the Mongolian cavalry began to increase, but they had also rushed to the front of Li Zicheng's team.  The cannons were still roaring, taking away the lives of the Mongolian cavalry, and the three-eyed guns were still firing, firing angry bullets one after another.

    After less than half an hour of resistance, the Mongolian cavalry finally arrived at the front of Li Zicheng's team. They initially thought that this was just an ordinary team, so they wanted to snatch all their supplies, but nothing happened.  Thinking that they met an army, an army with modern weapons, so they suffered a lot of casualties, many horses were killed and injured, but they could not grab anything, so they would not give up, so they took the bent weapons in their hands.  Dao rushed into Li Zicheng's team.  These soldiers of Li Zicheng were also trained with swords and guns, so how could they be afraid of these Mongols?  So they all threw away the three-eyed blunderbuss that was not familiar to them at all, took out their precious weapons, and fought with this group of Mongolian cavalry.

    The two sides were fighting together. Naturally, Li Zicheng would not be idle at this time. The long sword in his hand was flying up and down, and he killed seven or eight people in a short time. Although he was a coach, his fighting power was still very strong.

    "King Chuang, be careful." Li Zicheng had just stabbed a Mongolian to death with his sword. Seeing the blood spurting out from his neck, Li Zicheng felt that his blood was beginning to boil. At this moment, a soldier behind him suddenly  Jian shouted loudly.  Li Zicheng turned his head and happened to see a soldier being cut in half by the Mongolian cavalry in order to block the knife for him. The blood was drenched all over him and the smell was extremely fishy.

    "Damn it." Li Zicheng watched a soldier die trying to save himself, and there was no way to explain the anger in his heart.  Since there was no way to explain, he could only vent. Without saying anything, he stepped forward and avenged the soldier with the sword in his hand.

    The two sides fought fiercely, and the shouts of killing were loud. After about two hours, until night fell, the Mongolian cavalry still failed to take away what they wanted.  The loss of personnel has reached a very terrifying level. If they continue to fight like this, they may be completely wiped out.

    "Withdraw." The commander over there shouted, and the remaining cavalry suddenly stopped, trying to find a way to get out of the battle circle, mounted their horses and left.  Only countless bodies were left at the scene.

    Li Zicheng watched them leave, but did not send anyone to chase them. Some people were clever enough to pick up three-eyed guns and shoot them, and actually killed several people.

    Looking around, the surrounding area is already in a mess, with all kinds of corpses scattered everywhere.  Li Zicheng couldn't help but sigh, and ordered to continue: "Totalize our casualties, those dead brothers should be cremated, and find a place with good feng shui to bury them here."

    Working until late at night, everyone piled the bodies together and lit a fire. The blazing fire looked so conspicuous on the entire grassland.  The surviving soldiers gathered around and looked at the bonfire.  It means how many brothers have left us, and everyone feels very heavy.

    The fire burned for half an hour before it was extinguished. A pair of ashes were piled on the ground. These were the ashes of those who died in the battle. Li Zicheng ordered a grave mound to be built for them here.  Then they rested the team and continued to move forward. In today's battle, they actually lost more than two thousand people. This shows that the ferocity of the Mongolian cavalry is indeed well-deserved.  But he can't stay here any longer.  They have to move forward.  They found a water source during the day the next day, and Li Zicheng ordered everyone to clean themselves, at least to wash off the blood stains on their bodies.

    The next day they came to a settlement of residents who were not Han Chinese.  But the Manchu Tatars.  Li Zicheng issued an order to slaughter all the people in the village, took all the food for his own use, and had a feast in the village. They continued to move forward with the food.  This kind of behavior is to feed war with war, using the resources plundered from the war for one's own use, thereby cultivating soldiers who can plunder more fiercely.

    They naturally have their own explanations for their behavior. According to Li Zicheng's understanding, since they are killing Tatars, there is nothing wrong. Although they are not soldiers, they can also raise soldiers and serve as Tatar soldiers.  If they are not provided, they should be killed.  Finally, after fighting and plundering all the way, they arrived at Zhangbei.

    Zhangbei County has a long history.  As early as 4,000 years ago, humans were living in this area.On the land, most of the ancient northern nomadic peoples left traces of their activities, and it was called "the land of leisure grazing" in ancient times.  During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, a nomadic tribe was active in the vast northern area, which people at the time called "Ghost Fang".  By the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhangbei County belonged to the Wu Ending Kingdom.  Wu Zhong was a member of the Shanrong tribe. He surrendered to the Zhou Dynasty at the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty. Later, he was defeated by Zhongxing Muzi, a senior official of the Jin state, and was finally destroyed by the Jin Dynasty.  In the late Spring and Autumn Period, this county was within the sphere of influence of the Donghu nomadic tribe in Northeast China.  In 279 BC, Yan attacked Donghu and forced him to retreat for more than a thousand miles. The county was placed under the jurisdiction of Shanggu County.  By the late Warring States period, it had settled in the north of the three kingdoms of Qin, Zhao and Yan.  In the early Han Dynasty, Emperor Gao Emperor Liu Bang failed in his northern expedition, so he had to make peace with the Xiongnu and divide the territory. From then on, the county belonged to the Xiongnu, and later returned to the Han Dynasty and became the residence of Wuhuan.  Until the beginning of the Northern Wei Dynasty, in order to protect the capital Pingcheng, six military strongholds were set up along the northern edge to prevent the Rouran tribe, which were called six towns.  In 520, the county established Huaihuang Town.  After the failure of the Six Towns Uprising, the Northern Wei regime collapsed and split into the Eastern and Western Wei Dynasties, which were soon replaced by the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou.  It was returned to the Tang Dynasty in the fourth year of Tang Zhenguan, and then to the Khitan about fifty years later.  The people of the three dynasties of Liao, Jin and Yuan lived in Xifu.  The Liao Dynasty belonged to Guihua Prefecture on Xijing Road and was called Yanzi City or Yanci City.  Jin established Rouyuan Town.  Later, Rouyuan County was established, and Fuzhou was reestablished, both governing present-day Zhangbei, and most of the prefecture and county area in this county.  The Yuan Dynasty was the "belly" place, and Longxing Road Plateau County was established. In 1307, Emperor Wuzong of the Yuan Dynasty built the central capital in Wangwuchadu (Baichengzi) in Zhangbei, together with Dadu (Beijing) and Shangdu (Kaiping).  Today's Zhenglan Banner) was also known as a patrol capital for the royal family to travel between Dadu and Xanadu.  In the first year of Huangqing's reign (1312), Longxing Road was renamed Xinghe Road.  In the 18th year of Zhizheng (1358), Liu Futong's generals, Mr. Guan and Po Tou Pan, went out to Shanxi to conquer Datong, Xinghe and other counties outside the Great Wall, and burned the central capital of Yuan Dynasty.  Ming is the border area.  In the third year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1370), Xinghe Mansion was established. Four years later, it was the Yuan Dynasty and the mansion was abolished.  In the seventh year of the Ming Dynasty, Lan Yu defeated Xinghe again, and this county entered the territory of the Ming Dynasty.  In the 30th year of Hongwu (1397), Xinghe garrison was built. In the 20th year of Yongle (1422), it was conquered by Mongolia and later moved to Xuanhua. The county became the sphere of Tatar influence.

    In the Tang Dynasty, Tatar refers to the Tatar tribe east of the Mongolian Plateau.  In the Ming Dynasty, the eastern Mongolia unified by Dayan Khan was opposed to the Oara and was divided into Chahar, Tumut, Horqin, Ordos, Asu (Ossetians) and other tribes.  The Tatars were first seen in Turkic inscriptions and some Chinese records in the Tang Dynasty.  The fall of the Turks and the westward migration of the Uighurs have repeatedly provided the Tatars with opportunities to advance westward.  From the Tang Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty, there were translations of Dada, Data, Tatan, Tatar, Dada and Dada, and their scope of reference varied with the times.  It is a name shared by multiple ethnic groups, including the nomadic peoples whose origin is Mongolian, some Turkic peoples who were once ruled by the Golden Horde in Europe, and their descendants.  The Tatars, one of the ethnic minorities in China today, and the Tatars in Russia and other places are all derived from the Tatars on the ancient Mongolian grasslands.  In 1368, the Ming army captured Dadu, and the Yuan Dynasty's rule in the country ended. The Yuan regime retreated to the desert and was called Beiyuan.  In 1402, the Yuan minister Guilichi usurped the throne and established the Tatar state, and Mongolia split into Tatar and Oara.

    After arriving in Zhangbei, Li Zicheng received another supply from Zhang Lei, and immediately believed Zhang Lei's words a little more. Taking advantage of this momentum, they entered Chifeng from Zhangbei, and then rushed from Chifeng to Nuergan  Dusi.

    Nuergan, also known as "Couplegan", "Nuerge", or "Nargan".  According to "A Brief History of Ancient Heilongjiang", the people of the Qing Dynasty called it Niluhan (meaning "Chinese painting" in Manchu), which means that the mountains and rivers here are picturesque and the scenery is beautiful.  Nurgan Dusi was the highest local military and political unit established by the Ming Dynasty in the lower reaches of Heilongjiang to govern areas such as Heilongjiang and the Ussuli River Basin.  In the eighth year of Hongwu's reign in the Ming Dynasty, the Liaodong Capital Command was established in the southern part of Northeast China.  In the 28th year of Hongwu's reign, Ming Dynasty general Zhou Xing and others marched to the Naowen River, Huqi Wenhe and Oduolian areas, sent officials to appease them, and began to build a garrison system with commanders and thousands of households.  In the seventh year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming court decided to promote Nuer Ganwei to Nuer Qiandu Commandery Division, referred to as "Nuer Gandu Division", and stationed in Nuer Qiancheng.  Nurgandusi was the highest-level local military-political integrated system, directly under the central government of the Ming Dynasty.  The Ming court often sent imperial envoys to inspect the Nuergan area.  In the 22 years from the ninth year of Yongle to the eighth year of Xuande, the eunuch Yi Shiha went to inspect 10 times, conferring official positions, seals, and rewards of clothes and money to officials of the Dusi, Wei, and Office.  And on the top of the mountain of Nurgandusi, Yongning Temple was built, and two stone tablets were left: "Record of the Imperial Construction of Yongning Temple" and "Record of the Reconstruction of Yongning Temple in the Eighth Year of Xuande".

    The Nurgandu jurisdiction covers a vast area, starting from the Onen River in the west, to Sakhalin Island in the east, to the Transkhinggan Mountains in the north, and to the south by the Sea of ??Japan and the upper reaches of the Tumen River, including the Heilongjiang River Basin and the Ussuri River Basin to Sakhalin Island.  vast area.  Guards and posts were widely placed in the jurisdiction, which served as the local military and political structure under the jurisdiction of the capital.  Before and after the establishment of Nuergan Dusi, from the first year to the seventh year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, more than 130 guards were successively established in the Songhua River, Nen River, Enen River, Jingqili River, Henggun River and Wusuli River basins. By the Wanli Period, Nuergan was  The area under the jurisdiction of the capital has been increased to 384 guards, 24 stations, 7 ground stations, 7 stations and 1 village, commonly known as 384 guards.  (To be continued.)
