The war took place in March of the first year of the apocalypse. "Guoque" recorded this war: It was getting late, and the army was built to attack Shenyang, but the army was higher than the Huangshan Mountain, and the generals You Shigong and He Shixian tried to control it. Li Yongfang sent a suicide note to surrender, Shixian was beheaded with a shovel, and the book was dismissed. Holding an iron sword outside the south gate, the enemy retreated and the city was broken. Guan Zhou generals You Shigong, Chen Ce, Tong, Chen and Duan Zhan, the general manager of grain depot, all died. Shixian escaped from the west gate.
Three days ago, Yuan Yingtai would help each other. Company commanders Jiang Bi and Zhu Wanliang fought outside the Hunhe River. Qin Bangping, a local official in Shiqiao, Sichuan, and guerrillas Zhang Shen Wu and Zhou Shilu struggled to resist, defeated Bai Biao and Huang Biao, and finally surrounded them. Sichuan soldiers were hungry, cold and exhausted, and none of the 8 thousand people survived. Company commanders Zhang and Jin Qi also fought in Henan. It is also a battle, and the enemy soldiers are also fighting for anger. Chuan Bing's name began to get heavier.
As can be seen from the historical materials of "National Deficiency", this war began after the Jin army besieged Shenyang. Yuan Yingtai summoned all the armies to come to the rescue, but only the Sichuan army commanded by Qin Bangping and the Zhejiang army commanded by Zhang and Qi Jin took part in the war. In this battle, the Sichuan army, which took the lead in crossing the river, faced the Eight Banners and dared to fight and fight. It won several battles in a row and lost the "white flag and yellow flag". These eight banners are probably the white flag and the yellow flag.
Due to the hunger and fatigue of the officers and men of the Sichuan Army, all the Sichuan Army finally fought to death, and the Zhejiang Army commanded by Zhang and Qi Jin on the south bank of the Hunhe River almost died in battle. I think the Eight Banners Army also paid a considerable price, otherwise there wouldn't be the last sentence, "After a battle, the enemy soldiers were also angry." On the other hand, Jiang Bi and Zhu Wanliang's army watched the Sichuan-Zhejiang military forces return from the war and lost their reputation. What a shame!
Guo Que revealed too few details in this battle, and the most detailed record of this battle is in the book "The Crime of Bears in Ming History".
First, on the way to the rescue, Shenyang had fallen. The generals stormed in and fought to the death with the late Jin army, which shows the bloodiness of the soldiers.
Secondly, the situation at that time was that Qin Bangping, the chieftain of Shixian County, led troops to cross the river, leaving two thousand Zhejiang troops of Qi Jin and Zhang (whose real name was Guo Que) on the south bank (three thousand were recorded in Ming history), and then the Sichuan army was first captured by the Jin army. The history says: "Jianzhou fighters attacked from all sides, and the generals fought bravely, defeated the white pacesetter and the yellow pacesetter, killed two or three thousand people and fell off their horses, but the former was the same."
This historical data also reveals another detail, that is, Li Yongfang, a rebel of the Ming Dynasty, used the captured Ming gunners to operate artillery to attack the Sichuan army. It caused great losses to the Sichuan army. Under the action of hunger, fatigue and artillery fire, all 8 thousand Sichuan troops, including the main commander Qin Bangping, were killed.
Third, after the Jin army defeated the Sichuan army, it immediately launched a fierce siege on the Zhejiang army across the river. At first, Zhejiang military used lighters to fight, and the history books recorded that "many people were killed", but after the firearms were used up, it was "defeated for a long time, and the general was gone for a while." At this point, the Sichuan and Zhejiang Legion drained the last drop of blood for the Ming Dynasty. So sad! Be strong!
At that time, another Ming army, that is, the army led by Zhu Wanliang and Jiang Bi, was in sharp contrast with the tragic scene of this Sichuan-Zhejiang legion. Please look at this record, either "wait and see" or "head-on confrontation is invincible" Is this a drag or a fight?
These more than 10,000 soldiers from Sichuan and Zhejiang have unparalleled courage and will, and their tragic deaths shocked and admired the enemy. Finally, let's end with the evaluation of Ming history! Perhaps this also represents people's views on this battle! It means "although the strength is insufficient, it is salty and strong."
