Although the Wanli Emperor was lazy, he was political. In fact, there is still wisdom in governance, so he quickly thought of a way to have the best of both worlds, this time the Ming Dynasty lost the war, the whole country was shaken, and it was also a big loss of face, and there were voices in the court and the opposition questioning that the Wanli Emperor was too lazy and did not go to the court to be the root cause of the decline of the Ming Dynasty, and he almost didn't directly say that the Wanli Emperor was a faint monarch, and he just used Guo Zhiyuan's strange move to copy the back road of the Jin army to plug the mouths of those people.

So Guo Zhiyuan privately sent troops to copy the back road of the Houjin army, and it became the strategy of the Wanli Emperor, and he had already secretly given Guo Zhiyuan a secret decree, so that Guo Zhiyuan could lead his troops to detour through North Korea to copy the back road of the Houjin army, because Yang Hao, the stupidity of the Liaodong economic strategy, caused the Ming Dynasty to lose a good situation and failed to turn defeat into victory.

As for Guo Zhiyuan's death of Nurhachi, it was even more hyped, although the Ming army lost the battle and lost its territory, but after the death of the angry Jin Khan Nurhachi, his face was still passable, so Guo Zhiyuan suddenly changed from the culprit to a big hero!

But a new problem is coming again, since it is recognized that Guo Zhiyuan has made great contributions, then Guo Zhiyuan should be rewarded, you must know that in the history of the battle between the Ming Dynasty and the Houjin, it is already a great victory to be able to behead hundreds of people, for example, the famous Ningyuan victory led by Yuan Chonghuan is only "the first prisoner of two hundred and sixty nine", and now Guo Zhiyuan only killed more than 8,000 Houjin Qiding (not counting the capture of the battle to defeat Mang Gurtai), and captured more than 20,000 Houjin people, this credit is simply boundless!

It is impossible to promote Guo Zhiyuan, and it is impossible for Emperor Wanli to promote Guo Zhiyuan in his life, so what should I do? It's easy to solve, continue to knight Guo Zhiyuan, from Dongfan Bo to Dongfan Hou, isn't this guy just a lawless monkey?! With the respect of a marquis, but only a small prefect of Dongfan, Guo Zhiyuan can be regarded as setting a precedent for the Ming Dynasty, and there is no one before or after!

There are two flowers, one on each branch. In addition, after Guo Zhiyuan defeated Mang Gurtai, he cleaned up the battlefield to treat the wounded, and joined the infantry of the New Army who took the plundered Houjin population first, because he carried a large number of wounded and Houjin population, the marching speed was very slow, and he finally returned to Anton a few days later and joined Sun Zhiyong's troops who camped there.

Sun Zhiyong was also stunned when he saw that Guo Zhiyuan had brought back so many people, although during this time he had built as many simple houses as possible according to Guo Zhiyuan's instructions when he left, but there were not enough people to live in! Besides, the food that so many people eat every day is not a small number, although this time Guo Zhiyuan copied the back road of Houjin, almost like scraping the ground, swept away more than 100 forts on the back road of Houjin, and seized a lot, but it is okay in the short term, and after a long time, he will definitely have to run out of food, and he can't bring these people back to Dongfan, right?

Therefore, Sun Zhiyong hurriedly lowered his voice and asked Guo Zhiyuan: "My lord, how are you going to settle these captives in Houjin?" ……”

Guo Zhiyuan waved his hand and said: "I will find a way to settle these Houjin population, I will leave for a while, and you must do two things during my absence, one is to complete the re-screening of these Houjin population, especially those who are clothed, and select those who you think are loyal and useful, and the other is to send additional cavalry to reconnoiter along the line and collect the Ming army rout and Liaodong refugees......"

Although Sun Zhiyong didn't know how Guo Zhiyuan could accommodate such a large number of Houjin people, he still gave Guo Zhiyuan a military salute and said loudly: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”

After giving Sun Zhiyong an explanation, Guo Zhiyuan hurriedly left with 2,000 self-new troops, where to go? I'm sure readers have guessed it, that's right, he's going to Hanyang City again!

Guang Haijun has been paying attention to the news of the war between the Later Jin and the Ming Dynasty during this time, so Guo Zhiyuan copied the back road of the Ming army and the news of the defeat of the Ming army He knew it for the first time, and when he heard that Guo Zhiyuan was here again, he was so frightened that he almost fell off the chair, what does this guy want to do? I finally sent this plague god away, why did he come back?

But Guanghaijun didn't dare not come forward to receive him, Guo Zhiyuan copied the Houjin Houlu to the bottom, and even Nurhachi was angry to death by this guy, can he afford to offend such a person? So Guanghaijun had no choice but to take the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to the dock to meet Guo Zhiyuan again.

As soon as Guo Zhiyuan saw Guanghaijun, he laughed and said, "Guanghaijun, I'm here again!" You wouldn't be unwelcome, would you? ……”

Guanghaijun was about to cry, but he had to force out a smile that was more ugly than crying and said: "Welcome, welcome, Lord Guo has returned triumphantly, this king should have picked up the wind and washed the dust for Lord Guo......"

As soon as the guests and hosts sat down, Guanghaijun couldn't wait to say: "Lord Guo has been leaving Dongbo for some time, and now that he has returned from a great victory, China and North Korea will have a reward, why don't you rush back to Dongfan to reunite with your family, but have time to come to Hanyang?" ……”

Guo Zhiyuan was secretly amused when he saw Guanghaijun's anxious appearance of wanting to send him away, and said with a haha: "I also want to go back to Dongfan to reunite with my family as soon as possible, but I am currently experiencing a difficult matter and need Guanghaijun's help, as long as Guanghaijun agrees to help me solve this problem, I will leave Han......yang immediately."

Guang Haijun was already ready to be extorted by Guo Zhiyuan, and when he heard it, he hurriedly patted his chest and said: "If Lord Guo has any requirements, just say that as long as this king can do it, this king will never refuse!" ……”

Guo Zhiyuan was waiting for Guanghaijun's words, and laughed and said: "Then I'm welcome, this time I went to copy the Houjin Houlu Road and brought back the population they left behind, a total of more than 20,000 people, these people have nowhere to settle now, and I can't bring them all back to Dongfan, so I want to ask Guanghaijun to lend me a place to settle these people, I think the Dehe Islands where the fleet I brought before docked are good......"

This idea was not Guo Zhiyuan's idea at the moment, but it had this idea for a long time, in the original historical time and space, Mao Wenlong was to occupy Phi Dao (now Chundao, North Korea, Phi Dao is written as Linden Island in North Korea. This "linden" character is pronounced "driving" in Chinese, but the North Koreans pronounce it as Pi sound, so the Chinese simply call it Phi Dao. It became a strong fortress standing behind the Later Jin, making it impossible for the Later Jin to launch an effective offensive against Liaoxi and the Ming Dynasty, and even if there was any action, it had to be withdrawn in a very short time.

Not only that, Mao Wenlong also relied on the special geographical location of Phi Island, repeatedly penetrated into the rear of Houjin, and successively won the victory of Zhenjiang, the victory of Niumaozhai, the victory of the Battle of Ding Mao, the victory of Salhu and many other great victories against Houjin, and also recovered Jinzhou, Lushun, Fuzhou, Yongning and other Ming Dynasty lost land, the results of the debate Mao Wenlong fought these big victories are far better than the famous Yuan Chonghuan in history to achieve the "Ningyuan victory" and "Ningjin victory", it can be said that it is precisely because Mao Wenlong occupied Phi Island that the Ming Dynasty was able to block Houjin out of Shanhaiguan for so many years, Otherwise, the country would have perished long ago!
