Seeking the Historical Materials of Ming Army's "Yingzhou Victory"

In the twelfth year, Wu Zongxing announced the restoration of Datong. The fourth day of September is the birthday of Wu Zong. On that day, he was in Yanghewei, Shanxi Province, and a hundred officials of civil and military affairs wore royal robes to congratulate the gift in Fengtian Hall. At this time, 50,000 Mongolian cavalry camped in Yulin Wei and were about to invade. On September 25, General Wu, who was in Yanghe, immediately ordered the troops to disperse their defense: Wang Xun, the company commander of Datong, Zhang Wei, the deputy company commander, Sun Zhen, the guerrilla, and Datong were on the defensive; Xiao Zi, the left general of Liaodong, was stationed in the reclamation fort; Fu Xuan was stationed in Tianchengwei when he was fighting a guerrilla war. Deputy Commander-in-Chief Gao Tao, General Yu Yang and General Yan Suiling were stationed at the end of Yanghe River. Deputy general Zhu Luan, stationed in Pinglu Fort; The guerrilla Zhou Zheng was stationed in Weiyuan Fort. Judging from this strategic deployment, Wu Zong's military arrangement is very accurate. On September 27th, Wuzong was caught in heavy rain and hail while hunting in Yanghewei, and his entourage was killed. That night, a big red meteor appeared in the sky, followed by five small stars. Wu Zong may have been influenced by these two "disasters" and decided to move the capital to Datong the next day. The day after Wu Zong left Yanghe, Mongolian troops besieged the Acropolis. On the first day of October, Wu Zongqian moved to Shunshengchuan. The Mongols split up and camped in Bob Sun. Wang Xun, the company commander of Datong, Zhang Wei, the deputy company commander, and Sun Zhen, a guerrilla, led the fight. When Wu ordered a guerrilla war in the spring, Xiao Zi, a soldier on the left of Liaodong, heard the news, and helped Wang Xun, guerrilla and deputy commander-in-chief Zhu Luan, general on the right of Datong and Pinglu City to pursue when the enemy was high, and urgently dispatched company commanders, General Zuo Qin, General Du Ge and General Pang Yin, and guerrilla Jin Leying's soldiers stationed in Yanghe. Jiang Huan and Zhang Chen are successors. /kloc-On the second day of October, Wang Xun and Mongolian cavalry met in Nvxiu Village. After several battles, the enemy fled to Yingzhou in the south. On the third day of October, Zhang Qian, Sun Zhen, Chen Jue and Wang Xun met the Mongolian army in Wulizhai, south of Yingzhou, and fought dozens of battles, which was quite fatal. In the evening, Mongolian cavalry retreated along the residential mountain, but some troops remained to surround Wang Xun and other troops. In the early morning of the fourth day, the fog filled and the Mongols were cleared. Wang Xun and others immediately led the troops into Yingzhou. At this time, the defenders of Zhu Luan and Zuo Acropolis ordered Xu to arrive. On the fifth day of October, Wang Xun and others went out of the city to fight against the Mongols in Jianzi Village. The troops led by Xiao Zi, Shi Chun, Zhou Zheng and Ma Xun also arrived, but they were blocked by Mongolian cavalry and the Ming army could not meet them. Since then, Wu Zong led eunuchs, Wei Bin, Zhu (Jiang) Bin,,, Ai Ying Long Xiong, and Zheng Yi and others led troops from Yanghe to help. When all the troops fought to the death, the Mongolian talents retreated slightly and the army was able to meet. It was getting late, so I camped on the battlefield. General manager Wu lived in the camp that night. 1On October 6th, the Mongols launched an attack. Wu zong personally commanded the generals to fight. This battle, from the early morning to the evening, was bloody for five hours, and more than 100 battles were fought before the Mongols retreated. On the seventh day of October, the Ming army pursued westward, and Wu Zong and the generals fought all the way to Pinglubao and Shuozhou. Wu zong wanted to March, but suddenly a strong wind blew, and it was dark. The Ming army was tired and sleepy, so he gave up. Wu Zong ordered Wang Xun, Du Jin, the satrap, and Hu Zan, the suggestion, to report good news in Beijing. According to Ming Wuzong's records, only Mongols were killed 16 in this campaign, while the Ming army killed 52 people and seriously injured 563 people, and Wuzong himself almost died. Regarding Wu Zong's tour to the north, he once stabbed a Mongolian, which was said by Wu Zong himself. On the third day of Zheng De's 13th month, Wu Zong returned to Beijing. Throughout the welcoming ceremony, the emperor only said one sentence: "A Record of Ming Wuzong" On the third day of March, Zheng De said, "I went back to announce ... and drank a blue cloud:' I personally beheaded the first class of the Yu He River." "Say that finish, longitudinal horse straight to the leopard room. First of all, I don't doubt that Wu Zong once "personally beheaded the first class merit". Since you are such a character, you shouldn't say such big words. However, many monographs, papers and popular books now believe that Wu Zong's "first level of pro-cutting" took place in the most intense Yingzhou War mentioned above. The author secretly thought that this may not be true or not entirely true-General Wu himself said that he won this title in "Yuhe", so where is this "Yuhe"? First of all, there is no place name or river called "Yuhe" near Yingzhou in Ming Dynasty. According to historical records, the "Wenyu River" in the north of Beijing was called "Yu He River" in the Ming Dynasty, which is located in Tongzhou District. This location is too close to Beijing, where it is really impossible to meet Mongols. But near today's Datong, there was a "Yu He" in the Ming Dynasty, and today's Datong has a street called "Yu He Road". This royal river originates from outside the mouth and flows southward into Sanggan River through Datong. Interested friends can refer to the Atlas of Chinese History? 6? 1 Yuan Mingjuan, pp. 54-55. The pronunciation of "Yu" and "Yu" is very similar. The author thinks that the "Yuhe" mentioned by Wu Zong is a misunderstanding of "Yuhe" by historians. In other words, Wu Zong's "First Pass of Pro-cutting" happened near "Yu He". But there is no such place name near Yingzhou, including Yixian to Shuozhou. Judging from this, there are two possibilities for the specific situation of Wuzong's "killing the head"-one is that Wuzong met Mongolian scattered riders during Datong and killed them during the usual "hunting". It has nothing to do with the battle of Yingzhou. 2. Before the battle of Yingzhou officially started, Wu Zong led Zhang Yong and Jiang Bin from Yanghe on the fifth day of October to help Wang Xun, who was trapped in the top village of Yingzhou, and passed by "Yu He" when he met Mongolian Sanda. In addition, there is a description in a book called "An Alternative History of the Great Ming Dynasty": "The emperors of the Ming Dynasty personally collected a lot, but Ming Yingzong's big straw bag didn't explain that Mao and Ming Chengzu went to war many times and all commanded themselves. Only the young people of Ming Wuzong can ignore the emperor's life and death and fight for the enemy! "
