The three major marches of wanli that Ling Hu had been brewing for several days had finally begun, and when I talked about Li Rusong, I had mentioned that including the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and Aid Korea in Nongchen was one of the three major marches, but the focus of that article was Li Rusong, and today Ling Hu gave everyone a detailed talk of the three major marches of the Wanli Dynasty that were talked about and praised and depreciated.
The so-called Three Great Marches of wanli refer to the three large-scale military operations carried out by Daming in the northwest, southwest frontier and Korea from the 20th to the 28th year of the Wanli Calendar of Emperor Myeongshin, between 1592 and 1600 AD, which were the Battle of Ningxia in which Li Rusong pacified the Mongols, the Battle of Korea in which Li Rusong and MaGui resisted the invasion of The Japanese Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and the Battle of Bozhou in which Li Hualong pacified yang Yinglong, the governor of miao territory.
The outcome of these three battles all ended in the great victory of the Ming army, some people say that Wanli is absurd in internal affairs, but militarily it seems to be very capable, and the dispatch of troops will be indifferent, the Battle of Banzhou to quell yang Yinglong's rebellion, the Battle of Ningxia in Pingningxia, the Battle of Ningxia to resist the Japanese Toyotomi Hideyoshi's invasion of Korea, and the Battle of Korea in a large area of the northeast (Nuer Gandusi), which maintained the unity of Daming and crushed Japan's ambitions to invade Korea.
In the three major expeditions of Wanli, especially the Battle of Korea, Wanli's judgment of the situation, the good deployment of Li Rusong and other generals, and the unswerving principle finally played a decisive role in the overall war, but everything had a first-come, first-served, no rules and no squares, let's start with the Battle of Ningxia, which Li Rusong pacified and worshiped, and this battle can also be said to be the battle of fame of a generation of famous generals Li Rusong.
Simply put, in 1592, Dai Bai rebelled with his sons Cheng'en, Yizi Duyun, and Tu Wenxiu. In April, Wanli made Li Rusong the commander-in-chief of Ningxia and sent Magui to help quell the rebellion, and at the same time, under the command of governor Ye Mengxiong, the rebels were heavily surrounded in the city of Ningxia, and the Ming army flooded the city. In the end, Dai Bai committed suicide, the rest of the people were captured, and Daming won.
Who is D'O worship? Why did he rebel? During the Jiajing years, Tuobai offended the leaders of other tribes, and as a result, even his father and brother were killed, and he himself escaped by chance, and on this reason, he defected to Daming, but to tell the truth, Daibai is indeed a brave and good warrior, so he has also made many military achievements, and has always commanded the deputy general of Ningxia, and in office he raised a number of domestic slaves, many of whom are outlaws, known as the "Cangtou Army", In the seventeenth year of the Wanli Calendar, Dai Bai's son, Cheng'en, the son inherited his father's business, and served as the deputy general soldier of Ningxia for his father, and it is reasonable to say that Daming was good to their family, how did he become a white-eyed wolf and rebel? In fact, it was also caused by a small accident.
It is said that in the nineteenth year of the Wanli Calendar, the third generation of Shunyi King Pullik to send the Yellow Sect Living Buddha, Sonam Gyatso back to Tibet in the name of Yanghua Temple, there is a historical inheritance, the first generation of Shunyi King Li Da Khan applied to Daming, hoping to establish a temple in Qinghai, when the Ming court agreed, and gave the name "Yanghua Temple", and later also formed the famous Yanghua Conference, Li Da Khan invited the Yellow Sect Living Buddha, Sonam Gyatso, under his care, the influence of the Yellow Sect gradually surpassed other schools of Tibetan Buddhism, Moreover, the Yellow Sect was also introduced to the Mongolian region, which increased the interaction between Mongolia and Tibet, allowing more Mongols to enter the Qinghai region, and the subordinates of the Khan of Tumut remained on the shores of Qinghai Lake, and everyone remembered that this Fire Fall red was a key figure.
Just now I talked about Pulling Like sending the Living Buddha to Yanghua Temple, on the way into Xining, the general soldier at that time was called Li Kui, catching up with the day he drank and drank a lot, there was a lord under Pulling Like's hand called Yong Shao Bu, his full name was Yong Shao Bu Dacheng Taiji, is a lord of ten thousand households, he actually had no other ideas, that is, he pulled Li Kui's horse cage head, wanted to explain to him, or not to say that drinking was wrong, Li Kui was drunk and misty-eyed, a knife cut him over, and so pulled Lick came to see, this is also worth it. At this time, Huo Luochi, who had been restless, also felt that the opportunity had come, so he besieged Taozhou and Hezhou, resulting in the death of many generals of the Ming army, Wanli heard about it and sent Zheng Luo to the seven towns, ningxia inspector Dang Xin also sent Cheng'en and Tu Wenxiu to the rescue, after all, it was his own son, Dai Bai felt that it was not safe to let him go alone, so he went to see Zheng Luo, saying that he was willing to lead the army to serve the imperial court with his son, which was supposed to be a good thing, but unfortunately he was resented by the careful-eyed Dang Xin.
The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, The Worship himself went out on the horse, the fire fell red after listening to it and left without a fight, Zheng Luo stroked the Pulling Nick, and also burned the Yanghua Temple, the Worship can be said to be a soldier who yielded without a fight, so it was a bit of a drift, Dang Xin caught the sin of Dai Bai fei pay, several times cut The Worship, but also beat Cheng'en Twenty Army Sticks, and even like Tu Wenxiu also resented Dang Xin for other reasons, this knot was getting bigger and bigger, just when the pawns asked for clothes and grain, they didn't get it for a long time, and as a result, Dai Bai instigated the army vanguard Liu Dongyang, Xu Chao committed a rebellion.
Soon, the rebels attacked from all over Ningxia, occupying the surrounding cities and many fortresses, I said that the biggest problem in the middle and late period of Daming is the "Southern Wubei", so the defense center of gravity has been held back by the problems of the south and the northeast, so the defense of the northwest is very weak, so in the face of the sudden outbreak of rebellion, Daming seems to be a little caught off guard, and Ningxia as a nine-sided town, once the rebellion means the rupture of the defensive line, the so-called nine-sided town, refers to the east from the Yalu River, the west to Jiayuguan, The nine towns established on the northern border defense line are Liaodong Town, Jizhou Town, Xuanfu Town, Datong Town, Shanxi Town, Yansui Town, Ningxia Town, Guyuan Town, and Gansu Town.
The first to be sent to suppress the rebellion was Bingbu Shangshu Wei Xuezeng, the governor of Shaanxi, Yan, Ning, Gansu military affairs, he first sent the deputy general Li Xun to attack Lingzhou, guerrilla Zhao Wu attacked Mingsha Prefecture, he himself sat in Huamachi, after crossing the Yellow River, Li Xun soon recovered forty-seven castles, from then on began a long tug-of-war, in May 1592, the Ming army gradually advanced to the town of Ningxia, forming a siege. However, in the face of the rebels who had shrunk their troop defenses and the city they had carefully repaired for many years, Wei Xuezeng's soldiers and horses could not help Ningxia at all.
Wanli had given Wei Xuezeng a Shangfang sword, which had been supervising the battle, and then Inspector Zhu Zhengse of Ningxia, Inspector Ye Mengxiong of Gansu, Yushi Meiguozhen of the Overseer Army, and Li Rusong, who was not very famous at the time, arrived successively, Wei Xuezeng had previously gone to the police and asked the supervising army not to participate in military affairs, and Wanli also ordered Mei Guozhen to abide by this, which made Mei Guozhen somewhat unhappy, and later Mei Guozhen impeached the generals and convicted Wei Xue of dereliction of duty, and in July, Wei Xue was removed from his post, and in the criminal army, the imperial court ordered Ye Mengxiong to succeed him and give him the "Shang Fang Sword." At the same time, troops from all over the northeast and south were also drawn to join the siege, including the Hui general Ma Gui, the son of the famous general Li Chengliang, the protagonist of the Wanli Three Great Expeditions, Li Rusong, and even Qi Jiguang's bandi in Zhejiang and the Miao Tusi armed forces in the southwest mountains.
Ningxia town is worthy of the nine sides of the town, these tough generals, plus four hundred artillery, is unable to open the thick city wall, the rebels in the city actually took the initiative to attack, and the Ming army that rushed to aid carried out a cavalry battle, in the popular words now is to worship the hasty rate, the result of the Ming cavalry retreated to the back of the camp, the infantry released firearms to attack, the rebels were beaten back to the city, the two sides have been facing each other, Dai Bai intends to contact the Mongol cavalry, but the messenger sent out let the Ming army catch it in the middle of the road, Li Rusong understood his battle plan at a glance On daming's side, Ma Gui personally went out on horseback, and in the middle of the way, ambushed the tribal armed forces heading south, destroyed the camp of The Taobu, chased them to Helan Mountain, and expelled them from the plug.
But it was not a matter of the old man surrounding him like this, Li Rusong decided to flood the city again, in fact, Wei Xue had flooded once before, and someone had proposed to Old Wei to dig up the nearby Yellow River dam and flood the Ningxia city wall. However, Wei Xue had thought that doing so would hurt the common people in the city, so he did not agree. However, under the pressure of the rapid suppression of the imperial court, Wei Xuezeng finally agreed to carry out a water attack, but the rebels were already prepared for this, and they built new dikes outside the city, which continued to rise as the water level rose. As a result, the water in turn poured into the Camp of the Ming Army.
But now is not the same as in the past, the rebels' personnel losses and logistical difficulties, no longer able to build new dikes, the water of the Yellow River slowly rises near Ningxia City, some of the more fragile walls began to collapse, at this time Dobai thought of negotiating with Daming, but he has long lost the cost of negotiation, Li Rusong and Ma Gui launched a final blow to the rebels.
In October, the city's north wall was washed away by heavy water, and the entire area was submerged. The Ming army concentrated its forces on the southern wall, and finally defeated the rebels who had lost their will. Before Ye Mengxiong used the internal fire of the rebels who had long been fooled by the anti-plot, first Liu Dongyang killed Tu Wenxiu, then Cheng'en killed Xu Chao, and then Zhou Guozhu killed Liu Dongyang, and the army was defeated like a mountain, and Dai Bai and a small number of retinues could only retreat to their homes, and as a result, they were surrounded by Li Rusong and others. I think That Li Rusong, like Zhuge Liang, favored fire attacks, just like later in Korea, he chose to set fire to houses, and in the end, Dai Bai, who had lost everything, hanged himself in front of the house, and his son, Cheng'en, was escorted to the capital, Ling Was late in the city, and more than 2,000 people who surrendered were beheaded.
The Battle of Ningxia lasted for about half a year, costing almost two million taels of silver, but the cause was the personal contradiction between Dang Xin and Dai Bai, which was essentially different from the later Battle of Nongchen Korea and the Battle of Bozhou, but Li Rusong made a name for himself on this battle, but just when he and MaGui did not have time to fight until dawn, they were hurriedly transferred to Korea to fight against the Japanese army of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Please look at tomorrow's Wanli Three Great Marches of the Battle of the Anti-Wu Dynasty and Aid Korea!
