Qi Jiguang

In the early Yuan Dynasty, the coastal areas of China were harassed by Japanese ronin, samurai and landlords, and also in the early Ming Dynasty. But they were all driven back. In the mid-Ming Dynasty, profiteers in China's coastal areas colluded with them to go ashore, burning, killing and looting in coastal areas, committing all kinds of evils. An anti-Japanese team formed by Qi Jiguang has undergone rigorous training, strict discipline, and is brave and good at fighting. It is called "Qijiajun". Qi Jiajun went to Taizhou. With the strong support of the people, he won nine battles and nine victories, and quickly wiped out the enemy in Zhejiang. Then, he led his troops into Fujian and Guangdong, and fought side by side with the local monarch to wipe out the enemy there. The plague on the southeast coast has been calmed down. Qi Jiguang, a national hero, will always go down in history. Famous saying: "I know from a distance that the island floats in the sky, but I dare not forget my life in danger." "It's not my intention to seal Hou, I hope Hai Boping." In the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing (I555), the Japanese invasion in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was extremely serious. The imperial court promoted Qi Jiguang to be a general, and transferred him from Shandong to Zhejiang, guarding Ningbo, Shaoxing and Taizhou to resist the Japanese invasion. After coming to Zhejiang, Qi Jiguang immediately inspected the local army, and found that bad habits were rampant in the army. He thought how such an army could defeat the Japanese, so he went out to recruit soldiers and built a new army. Soon, an army of 3, people consisting of farmers and miners in Yiwu was formed. Qi Jiguang gave this army strict training and updated the warships, firearms and other equipment, which soon made this new army a "Qi Family Army" that would make the enemy fear in the future. Qi Jiguang also created the famous "Ying Yang Array" in the ancient military history of China according to the characteristics of swampy terrain, curved roads, difficult deployment of troops and the Japanese being good at ambush and hand-to-hand combat. An Ying Yang array consists of eleven soldiers. Among them, one is the captain, who stands in the front center of the team, and the other ten people stand behind him in two columns. Although there were only ten men, they held four different weapons and formed five coordinated attack lines. Behind the captain, there were two shield soldiers with javelin. They used shields to cover themselves and their comrades behind, and first threw javelin to attack. The shield soldiers are guarded by the wolf-fighting soldiers standing behind them. The so-called wolf-fighting soldiers are a special weapon with a very strange shape. They are mainly made of long iron bars, which are covered with iron branches and barbs. Like barbed wire, no one can get through. Behind the Wolf Chan soldiers are four spearmen, who are the main attack force of the team. When they see the enemy, they use spears to stab the front of the queue. At the end of the queue, there are two short knives to prevent the opponent from detouring and protect the long gunmen from the flank. There is no weakness in this formation. Eleven people cooperate with each other and cover each other to form a perfect kill array. Moreover, this formation can also be transformed into two modes. One is a five-line array (that is, the two columns behind the captain are separated and arranged in units of five people. The Wolf Chan soldiers step forward and stand side by side with the shield, forming the first line of defense, followed by two long gunmen and the short knife hand behind. This formation is mostly used for street fighting in narrow areas), and the other is the three-talent array (that is, the wolf-fighting soldiers quickly stepped forward, surpassed all their companions and stood at the front of the team, with two long gunmen following behind him, and the shield hand and the short knife hand stood at the side of the long gunmen to protect their flanks. Formation under the leadership of the Wolf Chan soldiers, began to attack)

In May of the 4th year of Jiajing (1561), more than 1, Japanese invaders invaded the Hatou, Taozhu and Wenzhou coastal areas belonging to Taizhou prefecture on the east coast of Zhejiang Province, and divided their troops into two ways in an attempt to occupy Taizhou and Ninghai. When Qi Jiguang heard the news, he guarded Taizhou with some troops and personally led the main force to Ninghai to meet them. Qi Jiajun arrived in Ninghai with lightning speed, cut off the way of the Japanese who were burning and looting in Taozhu, and forced the enemy to fight a decisive battle in Longshan area. Qi Jiguang ordered the attack, and all the soldiers were United as one, and they rushed to the enemy lines with great anger. The once mighty enemy collapsed at the touch of Qigujun's offensive, and the remnants of the enemy retreated to Yanmenling. Yanmenling is located in the west of Wenzhou, where the Japanese defeated the Ming army five years ago. The surviving Japanese pirates are still trying to fight to the end by virtue of the dangerous terrain, hoping to relive the dream five years ago. After a fierce battle, the Qi family army wiped out all the remnants of the enemy on Yanmenling. But at this time, another enemy attacked Taizhou while Qi Jiguang attacked Yanmenling. Taizhou has few troops and the city walls are not solid, so the situation is very urgent. After Qi Jiguang heard the newspaper, he immediately returned to Li for rescue. As soon as Qi Jiguang arrived in Taizhou at the gates, he used the tactics of attacking with firearms first, and then attacking with a large group of troops, and took the lead and went to the line of fire to boost morale. Encouraged by Qi Jiguang, the soldiers took the lead even more courageously and fought into the enemy lines without hesitation. Unable to cope, the cunning enemy deliberately threw the looted gold and silver treasures on the ground, lured the Qi army to pick them up, and then returned home. However, the enemy's wishful thinking is wrong. Qi Jiajun is disciplined, and everyone has a deep hatred for the crimes committed by the enemy. How can a mere treasure shake the determination to resist the enemy? The Qi army became more and more brave, bravely killed the enemy, and soon annihilated this enemy. In this battle, 38 people were beheaded, two of them were captured alive, and the rest of the enemy drowned in the river. There were very few casualties in the Qi army, and only three officers and men were killed. It is worth mentioning that when the Qi army attacked, the gang army just started cooking. When the whole army triumphed, the rice was just cooked. This shows Qi Jiguang's quick action.

Shortly after Qi Jiguang wiped out this enemy, another enemy attacked Taizhou. Qi Jiguang immediately gathered troops and headed for the enemy's compound. When the enemy saw the arrival of the Qigujun, they huddled in the camp and couldn't hold out. Just then, when it rained heavily, Qi Jiguang had to settle down near the Japanese base. After three days of stalemate between the two sides, the enemy learned that Taizhou was prepared, gave up the original plan and turned the attack target to Chuzhou. Qi Jiguang was keenly aware of the enemy's intentions, and sent an army to ambush the Shangfengling in Xianju, where the enemy must pass, and another army to follow the enemy. In order to avoid being exposed in ambush, Qi Jiguang ordered soldiers to cover their bodies with pine branches. When the enemy came to Shangfengling, he saw that there were pines and cypresses everywhere. He dismissed the doubts of being ambushed and swaggered into Shangfengling. When the enemy was halfway through the journey, a thunder-like cannon shot pierced the silence of the valley, and thousands of soldiers of the Qi army descended from heaven like magic soldiers and killed the enemy. The cries of Qi Jiajun and the cries of the enemy are intertwined and echoed in the valley for a long time. Under the attack of Qi Jiajun, the enemy suffered heavy casualties, and the panicked remnants fled to the homes of people in nearby villages for refuge. The people have long hated the atrocities of the enemy. When the enemy fled into the village, the people attacked like rats crossing the street and wiped out all these enemies.

Since then, Qi Jiguang has won several victories. At this point, the enemy's power in Zhejiang has basically been eliminated, and Zhejiang has regained stability and tranquility. Qi Jiguang won nine battles and nine victories in Zhejiang's anti-Japanese war and wiped out 6, enemy troops. When Qi Jiajun returned triumphantly, Taizhou people went out of the city to welcome him, and the crowd formed a long dragon more than 2 miles long, with cheers and thunder, and * * * celebrated the hero's return.

in July of the forty-first year of Jiajing (1562), Qi Jiguang was appointed as an upper general and led 6, troops to Fujian to pacify the Japanese invasion. At that time, the activities of the Japanese pirates in Fujian were rampant. They built a large number of enemy bases in Hengyu, Ningde, Niutian, Fuqing and Lindun, Xinghua, and used them as bases to burn, kill and plunder all over the coastal areas of Fujian. In August, Qi Jiguang arrived in Fujian, carefully observed the battlefield situation, and decided to concentrate his forces. First, he uprooted the enemy's base in Hengyu. Hengyu Island is located in the sea ten miles northeast of Ningde County and east of Zhangwan, separated from the mainland by only a strip of water, about ten miles offshore, and separated from the mainland by a shoal. At high tide, there is a piece of Wang Yang, and at low tide, it is all mudflats, making it difficult for people and boats to pass. There are more than 1, Japanese pirates on the island, and they have built wooden urban construction bases to support each other with Niutian and Lindun, in an attempt to stay there for a long time. To recover Hengyu, we must solve the enemy henchmen in Zhangwan before we can enter the army. Qi Jiguang showed great righteousness to the Japanese partisans, and promised to let bygones be bygones for their past crimes, eventually making them all surrender. On the morning of August 9th, Qi Jiguang took advantage of the low tide to let the soldiers use straw to pave the way and go ashore at one go. Then three loaves of bread were copied, attacked from front to back, and burned the wooden city on the island. Under the fierce offensive of the Qi family army, the enemy fought back. After six hours of fighting, all the Japanese pirates on the island were eliminated. In this battle, more than 9 people were captured alive, more than 2,6 people were beheaded, more than 3,7 people were rescued from captivity, and Hengyu Island, which had been holed up by Japanese pirates for three years, was recovered.

At this time, tens of thousands of Japanese pirates distributed all over the coastal areas of Fujian heard of the arrival of Qi Jiajun, and all of them gathered in Niutian, setting up camps in Qidian, Xilin, Shangxue, Muling, Getang, Wendu and other places respectively, forming a camp stretching for 3 miles. On the night of September 1st, Qi Jiguang led his men, lightly loaded with medals, and quietly raced to Qidian. When they arrived at the Japanese nest, they crossed the wall and opened the door of the Japanese nest. As soon as the army swarmed in, the Japanese pirates woke up from their dreams and died in a daze. As soon as the battle was over, Qi Jiguang rushed to Yinping Mountain to ambush, and all the 7 enemies who came to the rescue were wiped out. After that, Qi Jiguang went after them, even breaking the nests of Niutian, Shangxue and Wendu, and chasing them all the way to Xintang. Six hundred and eighty people were beheaded, thousands of them were taken down, and 954 men and women were rescued. Seeing that Niutian had been broken, the enemy who was based in Xilin and Muling fled to Hui 'an and Jinjiang.

On September 12th, Qi Jiajun set out from Fuqing to attack Xinghua, annihilated more than a thousand enemies along the way, and recovered Xinghua at dusk on the 13th. On the 14th night, the army rode the bright moonlight to the forest pier where the enemy was holed up. After arriving at the forest pier before dawn, it launched an attack. When a red sun rose from the horizon, the enemy discovered the arrival of the Qi army and rushed to fight. After several hours of fierce fighting. More than 2, Japanese pirates were wiped out under the fierce attack of Qi Jiajun. Since then, Qi Jiguang has repelled the enemy's counterattack in Fuqing. At this point, the Japanese invasion in Fujian was temporarily relieved, and Qi Jiguang moved troops back to Zhejiang.

Shortly after Qi Jiguang returned to Zhejiang, the enemy made a comeback. In this winter, the enemy invaded Xinghua again. The imperial court quickly appointed Yu Dayou, a famous anti-Japanese soldier, as Fujian company commander, and at the same time urgently transferred Qi Jiguang to Fujian again. When the enemy learned that Qi Jiajun was coming, it was convenient for them to withdraw from Xinghua in a hurry and retreat to Pinghaiwei in the southeast of Xinghua.
