When he first arrived in Liaodong, he was a literati supervising the army, and Yuan Chonghuan's exclusion in the Liaodong Army can be imagined.

Yuan Chonghuan, who did not have the slightest influence in the army, could only rely on inspecting the mountains and rivers outside Shanhaiguan to relieve his worries.

In April of the second year of the Apocalypse, Yuan Chonghuan finally got the opportunity to become famous.

Outside the Shanhai Pass, the soldiers stationed in Beishan fled. The generals deliberately handed over the captured soldiers to Yuan Chonghuan, the civilian superintendent. In the minds of the generals, in the face of these poor fugitives, the compassionate literati are afraid that they will not be able to deal with heavy hands.

Maybe the generals just wanted to see Yuan Chonghuan's liveliness, but the result made the generals a little frightened. Yuan Chonghuan brazenly killed all the escaped soldiers who were captured.

Yuan Chonghuan's iron blood surprised the generals.

When the news broke, the phenomenon of non-commissioned officers in the army disappearing without a trace.

After this incident, Yuan Chonghuan found that the generals looked at him with some fear. The generals listened to what he said. This incident made a deep impression on Yuan Chonghuan. Yuan Chonghuan felt that he had found a way to deal with the generals.

The rout incident gave Yuan Chonghuan a preliminary reputation in the Liaodong Army.

Also because of the rout incident, Yuan Chonghuan was favored by the then Liaodong Jingluo King Zaijin.

In June of the second year of the Apocalypse, Wang Zaijin ordered Yuan Chonghuan to move to the Zhongqian Office and manage the affairs of the former guard. Yuan Chonghuan did something surprising again.

Yuan Chonghuan actually set off that night and arrived at Qiantunwei in the early morning of the next day.

You must know that the development of Liaodong in this era is not large, and the wild is still a world of tigers and wolves at night. Even for veteran generals who have experienced a hundred battles, few people are willing to walk at night unless they have particularly urgent military affairs.

Yuan Chonghuan, who entered the city in the early morning, had a great reputation in Qiantunwei, and even had the nickname "Yuan Daring" in the army. This is the unique title of Wenchen Supervisor in the army.

Hearing the news that Yuan Chonghuan was so dedicated, Wang Zaijin was very happy. He personally recommended Yuan Chonghuan to prepare for Ningqian's soldiers.

But Wang Zaijin never expected that Yuan Chonghuan, who was promoted not long ago, gave him a knife from behind.

Due to the huge disagreement with the king of Liaodong Jinglu in Jin, on the issue of guarding Ningyuan or guarding the mountain customs, Yuan Chonghuan crossed the level and issued a public statement to the imperial court, announcing his differences with Wang Zaijin directly in the court.

After receiving Yuan Chonghuan's report, after the on-the-spot investigation of the emperor's master Sun Chengzong, the imperial court vetoed Wang Zaijin's opinion that he abandoned Liaodong and guarded Shanhaiguan alone, and Wang Zaijin resigned gloomily.

After Emperor Sun Chengzong supervised Liaodong, he finally adopted Yuan Chonghuan's strategy of guarding Ningyuan after several investigations.

After Sun Chengzong arrived in Liaodong, he had several detailed discussions with Yuan Chonghuan.

Sun Chengzong was surprised to find that Yuan Chonghuan's understanding of the war situation in Liaodong and his conception of the future war in Liaodong were very close to him. This made Sun Chengzong very appreciative of Yuan Chonghuan, and he directly promoted Yuan Chonghuan to prepare for Ningyuan's army, and sent Yuan Chonghuan to take charge of the strategic core in his heart - Ningyuan City.

In Sun Chengzong's plan, Ning Yuan would exist as the core of his strategy. At this time, Ning Yuancheng was far from Sun Chengzong's definition of the core.

Yuan Chonghuan was also very disappointed when he saw Ning Yuancheng for the first time. At that time, Ningyuan City was just the specification of an ordinary acropolis.

Ningyuan City was first built by Zu Dashou. Zu Dashou did not approve of the strategy of sticking to Ningyuan, compared to Ningyuan City, Zu Dashou focused more on Shoujue Huadao in his heart. Out of this mentality, the Ningyuan City that Zu Da Shouxiu cultivated was more perfunctory.

The height of Ningyuan City, which was built by Zu Dashou, is only 2 zhang 5, and the wall thickness is only 2 zhang. This data, in Yuan Chonghuan's view, does not have the requirements to become a strategic core, let alone play the role of a strategic support point.

According to Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan's assumptions, Ning Yuan needed to withstand Houjin's saturation attack for at least half a month on the basis of no foreign aid. Only by reaching this standard can the tactical requirements of the Golden Eight Banners after attrition and exhaustion be met.

In order to meet Sun Chengzong's requirements, Ningyuan must be rebuilt in accordance with the principles of protecting the city with Taiwan, protecting the city with the gun, and protecting the people with the city.

Yuan Chonghuan's request to rebuild Ningyuan City was unanimously despised by the leaders of the Liaodong army.

There's no way, you Yuan Chonghuan is a foreigner, as the chief officer of the airborne, and you don't have a record of shooting. Such a newcomer, even with Sun Chengzong's full support, it is normal for the military leaders to be dissatisfied.

How to get the support of his subordinates is the first test for a new official to take office.

In the face of this test, Yuan Chonghuan made another jaw-dropping action.

Liwei, this is the first fire that Yuan Chonghuan chose to put in the face of the provocation of the military leaders.

Liwei, in Yuan Chonghuan's opinion, that is to make you afraid of me. Liwei is the so-called killing stick, which is Yuan Chonghuan's understanding of Liwei.

In order to deter the arrogant and unobedient military leaders, Yuan Chonghuan directly chose the bloodiest means and killed.

In the third year of the Apocalypse, Yuan Chonghuan beheaded the deputy general Du Yingkui in the name of fraudulently claiming air salaries and embezzling military funds.

This incident shocked the entire Liaodong.

Does Du Yingkui deserve to die?

In terms of crimes, Du Yingkui deserves to die, but he never deserves to die in the hands of Yuan Chonghuan.

Because Yuan Chonghuan is just a soldier.

Picking up the rank positions of the two, Yuan Chonghuan and Du Yingkui can only be regarded as equal. Even if the Ming Dynasty has a tradition of being noble and martial, Yuan Chonghuan never has the right to kill Du Yingkui.

In Liaodong, only the overseer Sun Chengzong, who owned the sword of Shang Fang, had this right.

Yuan Chonghuan killed Du Yingkui without authorization, which caused a big problem for Sun Chengzong.

Out of the protection of Wenchen, but also out of deterrence of the Guanning army, and because he wanted to rebuild Ningyuan City, Sun Chengzong finally chose to protect Yuan Chonghuan. Sun Chengzong took on the title of killing Du Yingkui, and only severely reprimanded Yuan Chonghuan.

With the support of Sun Chengzong, Yuan Chonghuan's effect was very good. Ning Yuancheng was quickly rebuilt according to Yuan Chonghuan's new regulations.

Through these things, in Zu Dashou's opinion, this Yuan Chonghuan is a madman. Well, it's still a sane madman, it's just that this madman doesn't think the same way as a normal person. Since then, Zu Dashou has respected Yuan Chonghuan and stayed away.

Who knows if he is too close to Yuan Chonghuan, he will be killed.

To be honest, although it was Du Yingkui who Yuan Chonghuan was good at killing, Guan Ningjun didn't think so.

It is precisely because Sun Chengzong did not have the slightest treatment of Yuan Chonghuan. Guan Ningjun's jealousy was all transferred to Sun Chengzong. In Guan Ningjun's view, without Sun Chengzong's instructions, Yuan Chonghuan would never dare to do it. This is also a very key factor in the later separation of Guan Ningjun and Sun Chengzong.

The rabbit is dead and the fox is sad! Guan Ningjun couldn't find the slightest sense of security in Sun Chengzong.

An adjutant general was killed just because he ate some empty salary, which of their military leaders didn't eat some empty salary? This kind of murder charge, how can Guan Ningjun believe that Sun Chengzong will not just find an excuse to kill them too.

Under this mentality, it is not surprising that the Guanning army fell in the Battle of Liuhe.
