Shenyang City.

"Governor Li, it seems that the slave chief wants to give you a dismount!" Ran Xingrang read Nurhachi's reply and smiled at Li Hongyu, who was sitting on a chair drinking tea, with a smile.

In the letter, Nurhachi agreed to exchange prisoners, and the place of the prisoner exchange was in Sancha'erbao, which was not much different from Shenyang and Tieling, and belonged to the middle zone between the Ming and Houjin control forces, and was now under the control of Houjin.

The reason why Li Hongyu allowed the Houjin army to seize Sancha'er Fort was because after Kaiyuan and Tieling were lost, Sancha'er Fort became a chicken rib, and the Ming army was now under-manned, so there was no need to divide troops to defend Sancha'er Fort, in that case, it would become the target of the Houjin army's attack.

In his opinion, in order to effectively block the pace of the Later Jin army's westward advance, some small fortresses could be abandoned, stick to the big city based on Shenyang City, and rely on the solidity of the city defense to trap the Later Jin army.

At this point, Li Hongyu and Xiong Tingbi's views on governing Liaodong are somewhat similar, Xiong Tingbi also advocates defense, and has asked the Wanli Emperor to collect 180,000 troops to distribute in Sanyang, Qinghe, Fushun, Chaihe, Sancha'er, Zhenjiang and other important passes, beginning to end correspondingly, the small police themselves are blocked, and the big enemy is to support each other.

In addition, select the elite ones to ride and ride between them, disturb the farming and herding, and repeatedly make the enemy tired of running, and then the camera enters and suppresses.

On the surface, if Xiong Tingbi's plan can be implemented, then Houjin will be trapped to death.

However, from Li Hongyu's point of view, this is just an idealistic idea, and it is very difficult to implement it in practice.

First of all, Xiong Tingbi's plan was very costly, and it was bound to be opposed by the officials of the imperial court, even if the Wanli Emperor approved it, given the financial situation of the Ming Dynasty, it was difficult to ensure the supply of military supplies.

Secondly, Nurhachi would certainly not be trapped by the Ming army in front of his eyes, and although the roads to the south and west were temporarily blocked, he could go north to annex the Mongols and other tribes to increase his strength.

If Xiong Tingbi can handle the relationship with Mongolia, then Mongolia's Lin Dan Khan can help him, but it is clear that Xiong Tingbi does not realize the importance of this, and only prevents Houjin from entering the border wall.

Besides, when it comes to disrupting farming and grazing, Houjin is even more harmful to the Ming Dynasty.

The territory of the Later Jin was mainly outside the border wall of Liaodong, and the Ming army could not penetrate deep behind the enemy to attack and harass, while the Later Jin army could wantonly destroy the cultivation and grazing on the territory of the Ming army after occupying Kaiyuan and Tieling.

Therefore, Li Hongyu thinks that Xiong Tingbi's strategy is good but too idealistic and actually not applicable, unless he can get the support of Lin Dan Khan to block the road to the north of Houjin, then he can really trap Houjin.

It is worth mentioning that when Xiong Tingbi returned to serve as the governor of Liaodong a few years later, Wang Huazhen, who was then the governor of Liaodong, advocated taking the initiative to attack and weaken the power of the Later Jin, which resulted in a situation of discord between the Liaodong strategy and the governor, laying the lead for the future defeat.

In addition to agreeing to the request for a prisoner exchange, Nurhachi also put forward a condition to Li Hongyu, that is, to meet Li Hongyu outside Sanchaerbao on the day of the prisoner exchange, so as to ensure the smooth progress of the prisoner exchange ceremony and avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.

Obviously, Nurhachi gave Li Hongyu a dismount, and the Houjin army had an obvious advantage in field combat, so Li Hongyu would be in great danger if he wanted to go to Sancha'er Fort.

At the same time, Nurhachi also wanted to see who the Ming army doll governor who made him fall for the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, which led to the fiasco of Dai Shan and Huang Taiji.

"Donkey, the official also wants to meet the slave chief, and this time it is just the right time to fulfill the official's wish."

Li Hongyu had already dealt with this, and after putting down the teacup in his hand, he said with a smile to Ran Xingrang, because it was difficult for him to have a chance to come back after he was about to leave Liaodong, so this meeting was probably the last chance to see Nurhachi.

"This is absolutely impossible, the slave chief hates you the most now, if you go, I'm afraid you'll fall into his hands." Ran Xingrang couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Li Hongyu to go to the appointment, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to stop him, worried that Li Hongyu would encounter an accident if he went.

"The horse is kind, the official understands it, the official is a dignified governor of Liaodong, how can he be afraid of him as a little slave chief?"

Li Hongyu smiled when he heard this, and then said with a pale face, "This official wants to bring back those captured soldiers, they have already borne heavy psychological pressure, and they need to get the care and encouragement of the imperial court at this time, and they will definitely become the brave men of my Ming Dynasty in the future." ”

"Governor Li, can't this matter be handed over to someone else?" Ran Xingrang pondered for a while, and made a suggestion, for the sake of Li Hongyu's safety, he was not willing to let Li Hongyu take risks.

"Now that the slave chief has named the official, wouldn't the official be afraid of him if he didn't go?" Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, "This is the last thing this official will do in Liaodong, and this official wants to do it well from the beginning to the end." ”

"You!" Ran Xingrang couldn't help but smile helplessly, thinking that Li Hongyu was a little too responsible and persistent in doing things, and if he was someone else, he would definitely not condescend to see Nurhachi, and he didn't want to have anything to do with those captured Ming soldiers.

"Lord Governor, I just received the news that Lord Jinglu beheaded Liu Yujie, Wang Jie and Wang Wending, three generals who escaped from the battle in Liaoyang, to pay tribute to the soldiers who died in the battle against Jiannu, and put Chen Lun, a guerrilla general who was greedy for public funds, into prison, and I am afraid that he will be beheaded in the near future."

At this moment, Man Gui suddenly strode into the room, bowed his hand to Li Hongyu and said in a deep voice.

"Alas!" Li Hongyu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then sighed helplessly, he had long known that Xiong Tingbi, who had a hot temper and an upright temperament, would not let go of those generals who escaped and embezzled, but he didn't expect to make a move so quickly and use the Shang Fang sword given to him by Emperor Wanli.

At the same time, Xiong Tingbi's move was also to establish his authority, he had been away from Liaodong for a long time, and it was the first time he met many officials, and he was a newcomer, so he naturally wanted to show his majesty.

"Governor Li, Xiong Jing is a little too hasty, now is the time to employ people, instead of killing those fleeing generals, it is better to let them go to the front line to kill the enemy with their crimes, which is also a kind of appeasement for the soldiers in Liaodong."

Ran Xingrang sighed when he saw Li Hongyu, knowing that Li Hongyu did not approve of Xiong Tingbi killing those people, so he said to Li Hongyu that those generals who escaped from the battle are certainly hateful, but from the perspective of stabilizing the army's heart, it is better to give them a chance to atone for their crimes, and the combination of rigidity and softness is the king's way.

"Xiong Jingluo naturally has a reason for doing this." Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, and then said to Man Gui, "Reply to the slave chief, and say that this official will be waiting for him in Sancha'er Fort at that time!" ”

"Yes!" Man Gui's eyes flashed with surprise, he never expected that Li Hongyu would go to see Nurhachi, and bowed to Li Hongyu and answered.

"Lord Governor, just now I received a report from the people below, the local soldiers from Sichuan have beaten the quartermaster, and the person has been arrested and put in prison, please show the governor." Subsequently, Man Gui remembered something and told Li Hongyu in a deep voice.

"Sichuan's native soldiers?" Li Hongyu's face suddenly flashed with a look of surprise when he heard this, and in his impression, Liaodong didn't seem to have transferred troops from Sichuan, and they were all troops from the local guards.

The so-called native soldiers, refers to the Ming Dynasty Xuanfu Division, Xuanfu Division soldiers, because the Xuanfu Division and Xuanfu Division are actually the local ethnic minority leaders governed by the Tusi, so their soldiers are also called "native soldiers".

"Could it be them?" Immediately afterwards, Li Hongyu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but think of something.

"Donkey, this official is going to deal with the matter of the native soldiers, let's meet again another day." So, Li Hongyu got up and arched his hand to Ran Xingrang, and led Man Gui to leave quickly.

"This Governor Li really can't be idle for a moment, no wonder the emperor favors him." Ran Xingrang sent Li Hongyu out of the door, looked at Li Hongyu's back and said secretly, Li Hongyu has been busy with official business during the time he has been in Liaodong, and there are few people who are diligent in government affairs like him.

Shenyang City, south of the city barracks.

In the conference hall of a camp, several middle-aged people wearing military uniforms of different styles and colors from the Ming army were anxiously discussing something, and the atmosphere at the scene seemed a little dull and depressing.

"Big brother, let's find a way to save Lin'er, if Lin'er is really beheaded by the military lawyers, then how can we explain to the third sister?"

Suddenly, a general with a national character face slapped the table hard, and said angrily to a round-faced general at the top of the place, "Since they don't welcome us to come to Liaodong to help in the war, then let's go back to Sichuan and save ourselves from being angry here." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, it's our duty to serve the country, how can we be rash!" The round-faced general's face sank when he heard this, and he opened his mouth to reprimand, "If the third sister hears it, she will definitely punish you." ”

The national-faced general was silent when he heard this, and sat there angrily, looking very unconvinced.

"Uncle, what the fourth master said is right, let's find a way to save the eldest son, Madame will have a son of the eldest son, if something happens, how can we explain to Madame?"

At this time, a mustachioed general groaned for a while, and said to the round-faced general, "I heard that the governor is fair, and according to his humble opinion, we might as well ask the governor for help." ”

"That's the only way to do it." The round-faced general didn't have a good way, nodded helplessly, and then said in a deep voice, "Put the valuable things we brought and give them to the governor at that time." ”

"I understand it, so I'll do it." The mustachioed general bowed to the round-faced general when he heard this, and then got up and left.

"Uncle, those officials of the imperial court have always looked down on the people of Tusi, and the officials protect each other, and they are afraid that the eldest prince will suffer a lot in prison." After the mustachioed general left, a stout general couldn't help but say to the round-faced general worriedly, thinking that Li Hongyu was likely to secretly favor the beaten quartermaster.

"When things get to this point, we can only take one step at a time." The round-faced general's brows furrowed, and he replied rather helplessly, he was now helpless but to wait and see.

"Uncle, the governor is here, he has already entered our camp, and now he has gone to the house." At this moment, a soldier suddenly rushed in and shouted after bowing his hand to the round-faced general.

"What?" Hearing this, everyone at the scene was taken aback, and couldn't help but look at each other, never expecting Li Hongyu to come here.
