Chapter Ninety-Two
After planning this plan, Yang Xin finally embarked on the journey back to the capital under the relieved eyes of those generals in Shenyang.
He walked with Li Rubai.
As for Li Ruzhen, they still have to wait for Li Huaixin to arrive, but their worries about their lives are gone.
At most, it is a dismissal.
In fact, even the dismissal may not be, Li Ruzhen is likely to retain the position of Zuo Dudu, after all, he just lost Tieling, Kaiyuan was lost before he arrived in Shenyang, that is his brother's responsibility, his responsibility is to lose Tieling. But this point of guilt can be completely compensated for compared with the victory of Kaitie and the Battle of Shenyang, Li Rubai is sure to dismiss the official, theoretically the Battle of Shenyang has nothing to do with him, he is a convicted official who has been stranded in the city, but he has been at home for nearly 20 years, and he is an old man in his sixties who has no ambition, and he is satisfied to escape this catastrophe.
It is precisely because of this that the Li family can be said to be grateful to Yang Xin.
The group headed south at a normal pace.
Tiger Skin Station, Liaoyang, Anshan Station......
In this way, Yang Xin left two men here, who were responsible for setting up a business, and Li Rubai generously gave him one of the Li family's properties here.
This kind of property is not worth much.
In fact, Yang Xin is not short of money now.
On the contrary, he is at the level of a rich man.
The military merit system of the Ming Dynasty is a head thirty taels! How much did he cut during this time? Just by blocking the city wall, he earned nearly four thousand taels, which is well documented, and as for the bloody battle of the Fan River, those heads are also well documented. In short, the number of his beheadings was finally verified by Xiong Tingbi to be three hundred, and a total of nine thousand taels of silver was rewarded, and Xiong Tingbi would definitely not give him a float of silver.
This is not counting those that cannot be verified, such as those who were killed, this Yang Xin simply counted it to those soldiers who defended the city.
In addition, there is no evidence for Yehecheng.
And Jin Taiji reported to him a total of 200 pieces, including two Niu Lu Ezhen and one Jiala.
But how to calculate this, Xiong Tingbi is also difficult to determine, after all, he was not captured in the Ming army, so it can only be said that there is no evidence and then directly reported to the Ministry of War, and in the end, how to calculate the Ministry of War, it is estimated that it is impossible to give it to him, it is already a lot to give him 9,000 taels, and the amount of money and Abatai's reward, this is not something Xiong Tingbi can decide.
This has to be decided by Wanli.
What Xiong Tingbi can decide is that his beheadings in the two battles of Kaitie and Shenyang, a total of nine thousand taels, have been directly sent to him, and now they are pulling in the carriage behind him. And this does not include the discount he captured and sold to Xiong Tingbi, and then the gifts that Ye Hebu gave him. In short, when he went to the battlefield, he was rich, and he could make a fortune just by rewarding him, and he was already worth more than 10,000 yuan in a few months in Liaodong. Even Huang Zhen also made a lot of fish, Huang Zhen also shot three Jiannu, those guys also robbed a lot in Kaiyuan, and even robbed a group of war horses alone, in short, the Hejian People's Volunteer Army can be said to be rich in this battle.
After leaving two men to establish a business, Yang Xin crossed the Sancha River pontoon bridge and entered western Liaoning.
As for the boat, it doesn't need to be managed.
There is no shortage of boats in Niuzhuang, when the time comes, you can directly hire local boats, here is a transportation hub, some are private inland river boats, specially take the Taizi River and the Hunhe River to Liaoyang and Shenyang transportation, such boats can go retrograde to Kaiyuan, but need to solve the safety problem.
Fortunately, Yang Xin's broadsword is also very effective.
Yang Xin and his entourage entered the Sancha Pass and then passed through the Shaling Station, Gaoping Station, Panshan Station, and arrived at Guangning City, the Li family was extremely influential here, after all, this was the place where Li Chengliang was stationed in the festival, Yang Xin was delayed here for several days, and then he and Li Rubai set off again to the south, passing through Luyang Station, Thirteen Mountain Station arrived at Xiaolinghe Station to enter Jinzhou, and continued to the south in Ningyuan for a few more days, and finally arrived at Shanhaiguan Pass when it was already the end of November. He was able to get the result of the fire at Shanhaiguan Mountain, which was driven by the northwest wind and actually burned all the way to the Yalu River, and even Mao Wenlong, who was stationed in Sanyang, was tragically affected, and it is said that it burned down a section of the border wall in eastern Liao......
Some of the eastern border walls are made of wood.
After all, the cost of building a real city wall between the mountains and mountains is extremely high, and the border wall of eastern Liaodong is not as important as the Great Wall of Shanhaiguan, so when building the city, it is adapted to local conditions, there are earth walls and stone walls, and in those mountainous dense forests where the importance is not high, it is directly to cut down trees nearby and line up the wooden walls.
Naturally, this can't stop the fire.
However, there were no casualties among the Ming army, because Mao Wenlong had been notified in advance, after all, it would take several days for the fire to reach him.
But the wild boar skin was miserable.
The army of Jiannu, who had just returned to Hetuala, had not yet recovered from the frustration of defeat when a fire swept in, and poor Boar Pi had to drag his tired body and lead his soldiers to cut down the barrier with the pain of losing his son. As people who grew up in the deep mountains and old forests, they are still experienced in dealing with this kind of fire, but the problem is that it is not caused by lightning in the summer, it is an organized and premeditated large-scale fire, and it is impossible for them to really extinguish the fire.
That is, to make a barrier to keep their own home.
So Hetuara and the fortified cities they lived in could indeed be saved, but the surrounding mountains and forests that could provide them with food could not be saved, and the raging fire began from the Salhu Mountain, spread to the southeast, and everything along the way was reduced to ashes, and the fire demons raged through Hetuara and then continued to expand, and by the time the Yalu River stopped, the width of the fire area was more than three hundred miles.
The nuts that littered the mountains were gone, the wild beasts that were everywhere in the mountains were gone, and even some small villages that had not had time to react were destroyed by the fire.
As for the final loss of Jiannu......
Nobody knows about this.
Anyway, immediately after the fire, Jiannu resolutely went to Mao Wenlong and drew a line with the rebel thief of wild boar skin.
After all, they also have to eat.
It's the same with Jiannu, whoever can give them food will follow, and the wild boar skin can lead them to kill people happily and set fire to rob money and rob women, then they will follow the wild boar skin, but if the wild boar skin and they can't even eat, they don't mind changing masters. In fact, there were a large number of Jiannu who surrendered to the Ming army in history, especially those who surrendered to Mao Wenlong, but our Qing Dynasty never recorded this kind of thing, and if others dared to remember it, they had to send them to the court.
"It's actually as simple as that."
Yang Xin said.
At this moment, he is in the Shanhaiguan General Soldier's Mansion, but the chief soldier Li Huaixin has also been out of the customs, and the acting chief soldier is Liu Qu, who was the one who rescued Luo Cheng in the original history of the Battle of Xiping Fort, but was killed by Sun Degong. And Wang Wanqing's grandfather has already died old, and the new governor of Jiliao is Wenqiu, who is also an old man, and I have to say that Wanli has made the Ming Dynasty a twilight.
He admired Yang Xin a lot.
After all, as the governor of Jiliao, he knew that he could breathe a sigh of relief and drink tea comfortably in Shanhaiguan, instead of personally leading the army north to sit in the town, relying on this very vulgar guy in front of him.
"But this will also force Jiannu to be anxious!"
Li Rubai said.
"The wild boar skin can't survive this winter, he can only continue to loot, if it is said before, he can barely hold on, and he doesn't have to risk attacking in the cold winter, but after this fire, he has no other choice but to take risks, so Liaodong will inevitably have to face his involvement, I'm afraid Xiong Jingluo is already scolding you for causing more trouble at this time!"
Li Rubai said.
Of course, Xiong Tingbi will not scold.
But the general soldiers and civilian officials in Liaodong will, Yang Xin's fire was cool, but he left after he burned it, and these people had to jump off the wall in the face of the wild boar's dog.
"Then it's up to him!"
Yang Xin said indifferently.
He doesn't care about this, Xiong Tingbi's strict defense is not so easy to break, especially since Li Huaixin has already rushed there, and there are a lot of reinforcements from all over the country during this time, and the wild boar skin may not have the guts. However, it is also true that he has nothing to eat there, and he must come out to grab food, otherwise he really can't survive the winter, if he doesn't dare to come out to provoke Xiong Tingbi, and he doesn't dare to go north to challenge the alliance between Jintaiji and the Mongols, then there is only one direction left, to attack North Korea to rob the Koreans.
If that's the case......
Wouldn't that be perfect?
It just so happened that Da Ming could take this opportunity to get rid of Guanghaijun, who had been unclear with the wild boar's skin.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Yang Xin.
He is just a commoner, and he doesn't need to worry so much, anyway, his fire has already been released, and the consequences are his, Xiong Tingbi has to worry about, and he is not a Liaodong economic strategy.
"The Divine Decree has arrived!"
Suddenly there was a shout outside.
Wenqiu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly led everyone out.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of brocade guards, surrounded by a eunuch, poured in, the latter holding the holy decree in his hand, followed by several small eunuchs, holding boxes in their hands.
"The holy decree has arrived, and Yang Xin, the righteous people of Hejian, will receive the decree!"
The eunuch shouted.
"The grass people take the order!"
Yang Xin hurriedly came out to receive the order.
The eunuch glanced at him with the same eyes that he had said when he was quite handsome, and then opened the holy decree and read it solemnly: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and it is said that Yang Xin, a righteous citizen in the river, is loyal to the country, and serves Liaodong as a common man, and in a few months, he beheaded five hundred slaves, killed the son of the slave chief, and beheaded many of his generals, and protected Shenyang to make the slave chieftain a feather, and his merit was crowned in the three armies." Therefore, the brocade guards were given thousands of households, and bullfighting clothes were given, and the righteous people who accompanied them were given brocade clothes and guards, and they returned to Beijing as soon as possible after receiving the order, and wore brocade guards to command the servants Xu Xianchun to guard.
Yang Qianhu, don't take the order soon! ”
Then countless envious eyes looked at Yang Xin.
The common people went straight to the brocade clothes and guarded thousands of households, and they were also given bullfighting clothes, which can be a steady progress, and it is conceivable how to soar in the future.
Yang Xin looked at the eunuch.
The latter smiled and held the decree to him.
Yang Xin looked at this holy decree......
"That, father-in-law, the grass people don't dare to accept the order!"
He said.
