Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, confiscated the grain and salary of Phi Dao, and his army had food and salary.

In view of this, Emperor Chongzhen cut off Liaodong's military salary this year.

He sent the military salary originally given to Liaodong to the new trilateral governor Hong Chengchou, and ordered him to step up the handling of the thieves in Shaanxi.

After Hong Chengchou took office, he vigorously suppressed the bandits and killed them.

With the experience of Chen Qiyu and Yang He's failed to appease them, Hong Chengchou showed no mercy to the thieves who surrendered by fraud, and killed them when they encountered them.

Hong Chengchou's attitude towards the thieves is to go all out to eliminate them, and now he is concentrating his forces in Shaanxi to attack the rebellious thieves with all his might.

Wang Chengen said that Hong Chengchou is a great person, and he is a usable material.

Then he began to praise him.

In fact, Wang Zezhi knew that Wang Chengen meant to warn him.

There is a remarkable new governor of the Trilateral Governor on your side, and you had better not do anything wrong.

Wang Zezhi pretended not to understand another meaning of Wang Chengen, and listened attentively to him praising Hong Chengchou.

Emperor Chongzhen made great efforts, and in June, he used Zhu Xieyuan to restore his former official and take care of Guizhou.

Zhu Xieyuan sent Yunnan troops to capture and retreat; Sichuan troops went out of Yongning and captured Bijie; Since he led troops to garrison Luguang.

Shuixi soldiers An Bangyan and luxury Chongming to attack, Xie Yuan ordered Guizhou general soldier Xu Chengming to lead the troops to feint retreat to lure the enemy, and sent troops to smash its nest in three ways, Sichuan general soldier Hou Liangzhu, deputy envoy Liu Kexun and the enemy fought in Yongning, and then attacked with Chengming, breaking the Shuixi soldiers.

The emperor worked hard, but the courtiers did not let the emperor worry.

In the court, the officials wrote to impeach Yang Hao, and Wang Chengen estimated that Yang Hao was not far from death.

Yang Hao, the word Jingfu, the number Fengyun, Henan Shangqiu.

In the eighth year of Wanli, he was awarded the county magistrate of Nanchang.

In the twenty-fourth year of Wanli, he invaded Korea, and the following year, he was appointed as the imperial history of the right capital and was ordered to aid the military affairs of Korea.

In the first month of the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, the Ming army was defeated in Ulsan, Yang Hao concealed the news of the defeat and did not report it, lied about his military exploits, and was dismissed and replaced by Wan Shide.

In the thirty-eighth year of Wanli, the governor of Liaodong was restored.

During this period, he attacked the fried flower tribe in Zhen'an, and Yushi Tian Shengjin impeached him for stirring up disputes.

At that time, the war in Liaodong was very busy, and Yang Hao strongly recommended Li Rumei and asked him to be reappointed as a general, and was impeached by Ma Xi and Yang He.

Yang Hao wrote a letter to defend and asked to resign, but Shenzong did not bother, and Yang Hao finally returned to his hometown.

In April of the forty-sixth year of Wanli, Houjin Nurhachi went out on an expedition, laid down Fushun, and the general Wang Mingyin died.

Li Weihan, the governor of Liaodong, urged Zhang Chengyin, the chief soldier, to go to reinforcements, and Chengyin and the deputy commander-in-chief Po Tingxiang and others were killed in battle, and the surrounding area was greatly shocked.

The court discussed that Yang Hao was familiar with the military affairs of Liaodong, so he appointed him as the right attendant of the military department and went to serve as the economic strategy.

After Yang Ho arrived, he affirmed discipline, recruited troops from all sides, and planned to fight on a large scale.

By July, the Qing troops had conquered the Qinghe River from Yahu Pass, and the deputy general Zou Chuxian was killed in battle.

Emperor Wanli ordered that Yang Hao Shang be given a sword, allowing him to kill generals below the general army.

Yang Hao beheaded Qinghe's escape generals Chen Dadao and Gao Xuan, and toured the army.

In the winter of this year, a large number of reinforcements from all over the country were gathered, and Yang Hao decided to march into the army.

At that time, the comet was as long as the whole sky, and the comet appeared in the east, meteorites occurred in the sky, and earthquakes occurred on the ground, and people with insight thought that these were signs of failure.

University scholar Fang Congzhe, military department secretary Huang Jiashan, military department secretary Zhao Xingbang and others all thought that the troops had been stationed for a long time and lacked food and salary, so they spread red flags and urged Yang Hao to enter the army every day.

In the first month of the 47th month of Wanli, Yang Hao summoned the governor Wang Keshou, the governor Zhou Yongchun, and the governor Chen Wangting to decide, and swore an oath on February 11, and went out of the fortress to start a war on the 21st.

Yang Ho planned to use the method of dividing troops and attacking in the Korean War, and divide the Ming army into four ways to make a centripetal attack on Hetuala, the capital of Houjin.

The troops were divided into four routes: the chief military officer Ma Lin sent troops to open the plains and attack the north; Juniper sent troops to Fushun to attack the west, and Li Rubai sent troops from Yahu Pass to Qinghe and attack the south; In the southeast, Liu Ling was asked to send troops to Kuandian, and after being smashed by Liangma, he used Korean troops to help him.

During the battle, Yang Hao behaved at a loss, only sat in Shenyang and waited for the letter, and failed to contact the leading general of the Ming Army in time, resulting in the inability to give reinforcements in time, and was at odds with the general Liu Ting.

Claiming to have 470,000 soldiers, they agreed to set off together after gathering at Erdaoguan on March 2, but it was snowing heavily, and the troops refused to move forward, and the time for sending troops leaked out again.

Juniper wanted to make a head, crossed the Hunhe River in advance, and drove to Erdaoguan, but the ambush army rose up, and Juniper's entire army was annihilated.

Marin led Kaiyuan's troops to prepare for the division from the three forks, and when he heard that Juniper was defeated, he stopped and formed a camp to protect himself.

The Houjin troops were condescending and bravely attacked, but Marin couldn't parry and fled in defeat.

When Yang Hao heard about it, he hurriedly sent an order to stop Li Rubai and Liu Ling's two troops, but Li Rubai stopped.

Liu Ling had already penetrated three hundred miles at that time, and when he reached the Hunhe River, the Jin army attacked him, but it could not defeat him.

Later, he waved the banner of Juniper and wore his armor to deceive Liu Ling.

After the Jin army entered his barracks, Liu Ling's camp was in chaos, and Liu Ling fought hard and died.

Only Li Rubai's army was completely preserved, and more than 310 civil and military generals died before and after, more than 45,800 soldiers, and the number of horses, camels, and weapons lost was too much to count.

This battle is known as the Battle of Salhu.

After the report of the defeat was delivered to the imperial court, the Jingshi was shaken, and the imperial historian Yang He wrote to impeach him, but Emperor Wanli did not reply.

Not long after, Kaiyuan and Tieling were lost one after another.

Now, the old affairs of the officials in the DPRK and China have been brought up again, and they have written to impeach Yang Hao, hoping that Emperor Chongzhen will uphold justice and sentence Yang Hao to death.

Emperor Wanli did not kill anyone, let Emperor Chongzhen kill, Emperor Chongzhen was afraid of being infamous and hesitated.

The ministers of the court and the central government, arguing on the basis of reason, were aggressive, hoping that Chongzhen would be sentenced quickly.

Wang Chengen angrily reprimanded the courtiers, saying that they were forcing the emperor, saying that the emperor was very pitiful alone, and he hoped that Wang Zezhi would not forget Emperor Chongzhen's support for him and always stand on Emperor Chongzhen's side.

Wang Chengen made such a big detour, and Rory said a lot of words, and finally got to the point.

"The last general, remember the emperor's holy grace and dare not forget it."

Wang Chengen nodded with satisfaction.

Wang Chengen was almost drunk, and staggered to his feet, indicating that he was going back to Beijing.

His apprentices and grandchildren, Yang Yingchao handed over to Wang Zezhi.

The eunuchs were barren and had a lower status than them, and those who relied on them became their disciples.

Yang Yingchao is Wang Chengen's apprentice and grandson, if it weren't for this sentiment, after Chen Qiyu's accident, Yang Yingchao would have been planted.

Of course, Wang Chengen didn't like Yang Yingchao very much.

This is also the reason why he gave Yang Yingchao to Wang Zezhi.

Wang Zezhi patted his chest and assured that Yang Yingchao handed it over to him, although rest assured, he would "entertain" Yang Yingchao well.

Wang Chengen patted Wang Zezhi on the shoulder, and went back to Beijing with a hundred brocade guards.

As soon as Wang Chengen left, Wang Zezhi smiled and said to Yang Yingchao: "Yang Jianjun, take care of it in the future." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, it's small and you have to be taken care of by adults." Yang Yingchao is the kind of person who is the most able to judge the situation.

Wang Chengen had to be cautious when he saw Wang Zezhi, trying to do things, and he didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Wang Zezhi.

"Yo, you're good at talking, for your sake.

I will give you a big house, give you three thousand soldiers and horses, and give you three hundred taels of silver to play with on the first day of each month, and I will give you this month.

As for eating, you eat in this Kuixing Building, of course, not on the top floor.

At the top level, only people of the status of the prince can go, do you understand? ”

"The little one understands." Yang Yingchao replied respectfully.

"Don't always be a little self-proclaimed, no matter what you say, you are also a supervisor sent by the imperial court, speak well."

"Humble duty understands." Yang Ying rolled his eyes and immediately changed his name.
