Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

Another hero after 18 years?

Not everyone believes or yearns to be a hero after 18 years. Qin Liangyu, the Xuanfu envoy of Shi Jie, who was "trapped" in Liaoyang City, didn't think that being a woman was worse than a man.

Qin Liangyu was born in the second year of Wanli (1574) in the family of a year-old Gongsheng in Zhongzhou, Sichuan.His father, Qin Kui, was good at both literature and martial arts, and raised his daughter, who had shown outstanding talent since childhood, the same as his son.He once said with great regret: "It's a pity that you are not a man, otherwise you will be able to make great achievements in the future. Your brothers are inferior to you in both academics and martial arts."

At that time, Qin Liangyu said to his father very confidently: "If my daughter is allowed to be in charge of the army, even the Detachment of Women in Madame City is nothing."

Qin Kui didn't think there was anything wrong with what his daughter said, but felt that if given a chance, his daughter would be stronger than Mrs. Han.

As Qin Liangyu grew up, her marriage became a well-known problem.Girls at this time seldom have feet bound, let alone wielding knives and guns.Because Qin Kui's daughter was not brought up like an ordinary lady of the Han family, and she couldn't bear her daughter being detained in the inner courtyard and not being able to display her talents, so when she was too old to find a good son-in-law among the Han people, Qin Kui turned her attention to the Tujia people.

As a result, after General Fubo of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ma Qiancheng, who had a hereditary stone pillar Xuanfu envoy in his family, won the beauty.

Qin Liangyu lived in Wanli for 20 years and married a wife who was two years older than himself.After marriage, he gave Ma Qiancheng great help.However, in the 41st year of Wanli, Ma Qiancheng offended the eunuch because of mining incidents, and died of illness in Yunyang Prison.According to the system that the son of the Tusi husband died, and the son was young, his wife inherited the system, so Qin Liangyu was able to inherit the post of Shijie Xuanfu envoy.

From then on, Qin Liangyu appeared in the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War as the only female official in the Ming Dynasty.

In June of the 48th year of Wanli, the imperial court ordered Qin Liangyu to take the Tujia "white pole" soldiers to Liaodong to help Xiong Tingbi fight against the establishment of slaves and rebuild Liaodong.Qin Liangyu ordered his brothers Qin Bangping, Qin Banghan, and younger brother Qin Minping to lead [-] white soldiers to go first, and then he and his son Ma Xianglin led [-] elite soldiers to Liaodong.

After Qin Liangyu promised to hand over the envoy of Shizhu Xuanfu to Ma Xianglin who was about to grow up, the imperial court agreed to Qin Liangyu's request and gave Qin Liangyu the clothes of the third-rank officials.After the three brothers of the Qin family arrived in Liaodong in autumn, just in time for Xiong Tingbi to defend Shenyang and won the battle, they ordered their brothers to station near the Hun River in the southwest of Shenyang.

Later, Qin Liangyu's mother and son, who arrived in Liaodong, were sent by Xiong Tingbi to Liaoyang, and returned to Zhang Quan, the imperial censor of Liaodong, to increase the defense force of Liaoyang.

After Wang An arrived in Shenyang with the emperor's decree, Xiong Tingbi immediately implemented the emperor's edict of "strengthening the walls and clearing the wilderness" and divided the Liaodong garrison into neighboring cities. The Qin brothers were sent to Liaoyang City by Xiong Tingbi.

The first thing the Qin brothers did when they arrived in Liaoyang City was to help Qin Liangyu marry his nephew Ma Xianglin a wife.Zhang Quan fell in love with Ma Xianglin, who had a mighty appearance and superb martial arts skills. After carefully examining his writing skills, he deeply felt that this young man with all-round talents in civil and military affairs was the best candidate for his son-in-law.And after the marriage was settled, Ma Xianglin was given the word "Ruizheng".

The marriage is set in Laba.

Just after the twelfth lunar month, news came that Jiannu was going south.Zhang Quan, as the No. [-] person stationed in Liaoyang as the inspector censor of Liaodong, immediately sent someone to Shenyang to contact Xiong Tingbi closely. As a result, he got [-] forbidden troops sent by Xiong Tingbi and was ordered to defend Liaoyang again.

Zhang Quan followed Xiong Tingbi's instructions and began to build the ice city and seal the city gates. In the end, he still had a different idea in his heart, so he kept the Xiaonan gate, and sent rangers to the north every day to inquire about news.After learning that an army of [-] was besieging Shenyang, he immediately summoned Hou Shilu, Tong Zhongkui, Qin Liangyu's mother and son, and the Qin family brothers in Liaoyang to patrol Yushifu.

Zhang Quan first gave everyone the order that the emperor sent an order to Shenyang, and Xiong Tingbi ordered Liaoyang to stick to it after receiving the order.Then he went on to say: "Although Shenyang rebuilt the city after Xiong Jinglue arrived in Liaodong, the [-] army of slaves besieged Shenyang together. I was very worried whether Shenyang would be able to hold it. If Shenyang couldn't hold it, it would be difficult to keep Fengji, and Liaoyang would be alone. The tree is hard to support, and the entire Liaodong will soon fall."

Qin Liangyu asked, "What do you mean? The imperial decree is to have Xiong Jinglue defend the city, and the supervising army is also in Shenyang. Are we going to send troops against the decree? Take tens of thousands of horses from Liaoyang to Shenyang. , the 10,000+ troops from our three cities will fight Jiannu under the city of Shenyang, what are the chances of winning?"

Zhang Quan couldn't answer.

After Saarhu, he didn't know whether the Ming army could defeat Jiannu.It's good that the Allied Forces of the Key Three Cities can defeat Jiannu. If they lose, the entire Liaodong will have no power to recover.

Hou Shilu said: "Master Zhang, Shenyang is under siege. Fengji was originally set up to help each other with Shenyang. I am afraid that Fengji will not be able to get rid of the siege. The distance between Liaoyang and Shenyang does not mean that Jiannu can go to the court. At the end of the day, Liaoyang is also in danger. According to the officials, it is not a matter of sending troops or not, but we have to be wary of whether Jiannu has the intention of encircling the spot and sending reinforcements."

Tong Zhongkui also said: "Master Zhang, I am afraid that Shenyang will not be able to send military newspapers to the capital because of the siege. Are we going to send five hundred miles to the capital to expedite it? Don't send any more sentry scouts. Once found It’s hard for those soldiers to escape with their lives under Jiannu’s horse.”

Zhang Quan knew that everyone was right.

He pondered for a while and said: "Immediately send someone to send Babaili to the capital urgently. The city should also be under martial law immediately to prevent spies who collude with Jiannu from taking advantage of the chaos."

The clerk immediately brought the paper and ink, and Ma Xianglin quickly grabbed the job of researching the ink.Zhang Quan did it himself, and got a very urgent battle report in no time.Hou Shilu had already called the messenger who was going to deliver the battle report and gave careful instructions. When the wax was sealed and the messenger left, Ma Xianglin's worried appearance with a bitter face became the focus of everyone.

Ma Xianglin was so uncomfortable that bitter water came out of his mouth, God, he is getting married soon.How can you get married under martial law?

The nephew was in a dilemma, and several uncles were present, so naturally someone would speak up for him.Qin Minping smiled and said, "It's better to loosen the outside and tighten the inside, so as to catch all those who have evil plans. In case a war breaks out, we have to separate people to pay attention to the internal strife."

Zhang Quan immediately understood Qin Minping's intentions. Looking at the son-in-law he had chosen, and thinking about the marriage with everything in place, and the dowry carefully arranged by his wife Huo for his daughter, he thought that if he was prepared enough, he would make good use of the opportunity to marry his daughter. Should be able to catch spies in the city.

"In this case, everyone will have to work hard on Laba day. Not only can you not drink alcohol, but you must also send enough people to important places in the city."

Qin Bangping stood up and said: "Since the outside is loose and the inside is tight, we can't release more people in the open. For places such as granaries, armories, artillery at the top of the city, and explosives/explosives, we might as well send a few thousand more people."

Seeing that Zhang Quan didn't intend to postpone the marriage, Qin Liangyu stood up and said, "Eight thousand white wax troops and six thousand imperial troops are going to defend these important places. As for the Liaodong soldiers, how about making fishing targets? Hou Zongbing, Tong Zongbing It's going to be hard work for you two."

Hou Shilu and Tong Zhongkui had some reluctance. After careful discussion, they immediately re-deployed the precautions for Laba that day.

Neither Qin Liangyu didn't trust Liaodong soldiers, nor Zhang Quan didn't trust Hou Shilu and Tong Zhongkui, or Hou and Tong themselves didn't dare to vouch for the soldiers under their command.The garrison in Liaoyang is not as large as that in Shenyang. During the selection, Xiong Tingbi asked the imperial army to bring all the soldiers who had been "eliminated" from Shenyang and Fengji to Liaoyang.

Zhang Quan had no choice but to accept these soldiers. If it weren't for the extraordinary period, he would have written a book to the court to impeach Xiong Tingbi for his reckless behavior.

——Is Liaoyang City not important?

This is the case with the soldiers, and the residents of the city are also not reassuring.Some Liao people who escaped from Jiannu said that they either fed horses, farmed land, or were beaten at Jianu.I can't ask any more questions.Now these people are all gathered in Liaoyang City.There are also households around Liaoyang, because of the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the wilderness, they have also entered the city one after another in the past few days.

God knows how many spies got in there.

As expected by Zhang Quan, when the bride bid farewell to her parents, someone shouted: "It's on fire. It's on fire. Come and put out the fire."

Zhang Quan looked at his wife and saw that Mrs. Huo was still telling his daughter calmly, so he signaled the housekeeper to go out and ask.After sending his daughter out, the housekeeper came back and reported to him: "It's the kitchen helper playing a prank, and they have already been sent to prison."

Huo was very calm. Seeing that Zhang Quan was fidgeting, he persuaded him: "With such a detailed arrangement, even if you can't catch the spies in the city, you can still get rid of ten percent."

"I know. It should be quite stable for a while, and it will be when those people make trouble when night falls."

Things are going down according to Zhang Quan's idea.When the wedding banquet was halfway through, several soldiers went to the granary. They tried to throw fire and oil cans into the granary, but were caught by the guards guarding the granary.

Then came the news that the armory and the explosive/powder depot, each of which had several waves of people rushing in.There were some cannons on the top of the city pretending to be sent by the brothers of the Qin family to deliver wedding wine.

It was noisy until midnight, and Zhang Quan looked dumbfounded when he looked at Hou Shilu and Tong Zhongkui who were waiting for the news with him.

The captured soldiers under the two men were not only "eliminated" from Fengji and Shenyang, but also those who had been under their command for several years.

During the interrogation, either his parents were tied up, or his wife and children were held hostage, so he had to burn the granary.

Zhang Quan was so angry that he couldn't maintain his demeanor, and immediately ordered the soldiers of the imperial army to search for suspicious criminals from house to house.By dawn, more than 300 people were cleared out.

Regardless of whether they were coerced or not, if they wanted to make crooked ideas about granaries and ordnance, the soldiers involved in the case had only one dead end.And those "fugitives" who pretended to be stupid were all put in prison by Zhang Quan.

Yan Jizu, the censor who was ordered to rush to Liaoyang to announce the decree, saw Zhang Quan who looked desperate.

起源

In February of the third year of Taiyuan (378) of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Fu Jian of the former Qin Dynasty sent Fu Pi to attack Xiangyang, an important place in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.At that time, Zhu Xu, a general of Zhonglang in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Zhu Xu, the governor of Liangzhou, was guarding here. He mistakenly believed that there were no ships in the former Qin Dynasty, and it was difficult to cross the Mian River (Han River), so he underestimated the enemy and spared his preparations;

Zhu Xu's mother, Mrs. Han, was in the army with her husband Zhu Tao in her early years and knew a lot about military affairs.When Xiangyang was besieged.She personally went to the city to observe the terrain and inspect the city defenses. She believed that the defense capabilities in the northwest corner should be strengthened, and she personally led the maidservants and women in the city to build an inner city.

Later, Fu Piguo launched an attack on the northwest corner of the city, and soon broke through the outer city.The Jin army insisted on defending the inner city of Xinzhu, and was able to repel Fu Pi.
