The imperial court then ordered General Mangui of Shanhaiguan to move to Qiantun, Santun Sun Zushou to move to Shanhaiguan, Xuanfu Heiyunlong to move to a stone, Jiliao Governor Yan Mingtai to move to Guancheng, and mobilized troops from Changping and TJ Baoding to Shangguan; The guards of Sxhnsd and other places are ready to be dispatched.

"You Shilu was just about to prepare and set off, and the Jin army divided troops to attack Ningyuan, Yuan Chonghuan, Liu Yingkun, and Bi Zisu led the soldiers to climb the city tower to defend, lined up in the ditch, and bombarded them from a long distance with artillery. While Man Gui, You Shilu, and I fought with the Houjin army outside the city, there were many casualties, and General Man Gui was also wounded by an arrow. ”

"After the Jin army retreated from Ningyuan, it increased the offensive in Jinzhou, but it was still unable to overcome, and there were heavy casualties, in June, the Later Jin army withdrew, and then the Jin army withdrew its troops and destroyed the two cities of the Great and Small Ling River along the way."

Zu Dashou said this, and was silent for a moment before continuing: "This battle was played in the imperial court in the name of "Ningjin Great Victory"! ”

Speaking of this, Wang Zaijin also heard that Zu Dashou was quite disdainful of the so-called "Ningjin Great Victory".

Before coming to Liaodong, Emperor Chongzhen mentioned to Wang Zaijin that "Ningjin is a great victory!" Wang Zaijin originally thought that this was a big victory, but after listening to Emperor Chongzhen's analysis, he directly changed his mind, and at the same time, he also heard Emperor Chongzhen mention a word, that is, the strategic level.

The cause of this battle was that Yuan Chonghuan negotiated peace with Huang Taiji, whether it was true or false, this was already an established thing.

After receiving the promise of peace, Huang Taiji directly sent troops to Korea, in order to seize the strategic rear of Korea. Once the DPRK is taken, it will not only be able to obtain vast land and grain baggage, but also an outlet to the sea.

In this way, the Houjin broke through the imperial court's blockade of the Houjin sea, allowing it to conduct maritime trade.

Wulu is the RB Wako, or the Hongyi Lanyi, or even some smuggling gangs in Jiangnan, Houjin can get more artillery and supplies from them. At a time when SX and SX are about to erode, the importance of this supply to Houjin is self-evident.

Yuan Chonghuan also had his own strategic intentions, that is, to take advantage of the opportunity of the Later Jin attack on Korea, build a city on the Daling River, and move his front line forward.

But what about the end result? Emperor Chongzhen gave Wang Zaijin an analysis, and finally North Korea was lost, Mao Wenlong was almost pulled out, if it wasn't for Mao Wenlong who defeated the coalition forces of North Korea and Houjin, the imperial court was afraid that even the strategic place of Phi Island would have to be lost.

Has Yuan Chonghuan's strategic intent been achieved? Apparently not, not only Ningyuan and Jinzhou were besieged, but the newly built Dalinghe City was also destroyed. A lot of manpower and material resources were consumed, and as a result, North Korea was lost, which is also called a great victory? On a strategic level, this is a typical example of a complete failure.

It is precisely because of this that after the "Ningjin Great Victory" reported to the imperial court, although the imperial court recognized it on the surface, it was treated differently when rewarding.

Man Gui, Zhao Shujiao and others all received their due rewards, but Yuan Chonghuan only increased Yuan Chonghuan's rank by one level because Wei Zhongxian asked his henchmen to impeach Yuan Chonghuan for not rescuing Jinzhou. Shangshu Huo Weihua felt unhappy about this, and begged to resign from the reward of his descendants, but Wei Zhongxian did not allow it.

In July, Yuan Chonghuan resigned and returned to his hometown, and the Ming court replaced Yuan Chonghuan as the governor of Liaodong with Wang Zhichen, stationed in Ningyuan.

Wang Zaijin thought of Emperor Chongzhen's words at this time, and after admitting that the "Ningyuan Great Victory" was a victory, he naturally couldn't fail in mentioning Yuan Chonghuan's decision, otherwise the court would slap himself in the face, so he found a sin for not rescuing Jinzhou and suppressed Yuan Chonghuan's reward.

It's just that what the court didn't expect was that Yuan Chonghuan did even more desperately, and directly resigned in anger.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse at that time saw through Yuan Chonghuan's incompetent face, and falsely reported his military exploits afterwards, forged the "Ningjin Great Victory", and coerced the imperial court, so he agreed to Yuan Chonghuan's resignation, and Yuan Chonghuan went back to his hometown directly.

Wannian soy sauce male Wang Zhichen was mentioned again, just a few months after leaving Liaodong, Wang Zhichen came to Liaodong again. This is also the imperial court's disguised admission of mistakes, and Yuan Chonghuan believed in the front, and as a result, a battle of Ningjin became like that, and a "Ningjin victory" was made.

Facts have proved that Yuan Chonghuan is not good, and Wang Zhichen, who does not deal with Yuan Chonghuan, is naturally correct, and naturally he will replace Wang Zhichen.

If the Emperor of the Apocalypse does not die, it is estimated that Yuan Chonghuan's career as an officer will end here, but within a few days, the Emperor of the Apocalypse died, and Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, condemned Wei Zhongxian to the case, and went directly to prison. At this time, the Donglin Party began to advocate the argument that Pingliao was indispensable to Yuan Manzi.

Yuan Manzi also dared to speak, and directly came to a five-year Pingliao strategy, saying that Emperor Chongzhen was angry.

Emperor Chongzhen, who had just ascended the throne, felt that he was the king of Zhongxing, and it was naturally his own merit to conquer the Liaotu. Since Yuan Chonghuan is talented, he strongly supports him, and he recovers Liaotu in five years, then he must leave his name in history as the king of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty.

At the suggestion of the ministers of the DPRK and China, Yuan Chonghuan was able to be reactivated, and was appointed as the secretary of the military department and the right deputy capital Yushi, supervising Ji Liao, and supervising Denglai, TJ military affairs.

In July of the same year, Yuan Chonghuan returned to the capital, and Emperor Chongzhen summoned Yuan Chonghuan on the platform, Yuan Chonghuan claimed that he could return to Liao in five years, and Zhu Youzhen praised it. During the incident, Xu Yuqing asked Yuan Chonghuan about his strategy for recovering Liao, but Yuan Chonghuan said that he used such words to comfort the emperor. Xu Yuqing said: "The emperor is wise, how can he deal with it casually." What should you do if he pursues results according to deadlines? ”

Yuan Chonghuan also felt that he had lost his words, so he said: "The five-year plan to restore Liao is not easy to complete, since Your Majesty has entrusted it to the minister, how dare the minister shirk this difficult task." However, within five years, the household department transferred military salaries, the Ministry of Industry supplied equipment, the officials hired personnel, and the military department transferred troops and selected generals. ”

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen's eyes had been brightened by the merits of five years of recovering the Liao soil, how could he hear Yuan Chonghuan's shirking? also praised it greatly, so he asked the ministers of the four ministries to follow Yuan Chonghuan's words.

Yuan Chonghuan was afraid that after he went to the border, someone in the court would inevitably slander him again, so he told Emperor Chongzhen about it, and under the advice of the scholar Liu Hongxun and others, he took back the sword of Shang Fang of Wang Zhichen and Man Gui and gave it to Yuan Chonghuan.

In view of the fact that Xiong Tingbi and Sun Chengzong had been excluded and framed before, which made it difficult for their will to stretch, Yuan Chonghuan then wrote again: "The strategy of restoring the Liao land is nothing more than the statement put forward by the minister in previous years that the Liao people should defend the Liao land and raise the Liao people with the Liao land, defense is a regular strategy, offensive warfare is a flexible strategy, and peace negotiation is an auxiliary strategy. Law enforcement is progressing step by step and not abruptly, and the pursuit of practical results rather than coveting fame is what the ministers and border officials can do. ”

"As for the choice of employing people, and the people who are used, they are the key to the emperor's grasp. How can we use people without being half-hearted, believing without doubting? Because the minister of frontier defense is different from the minister of the imperial court, there are many suspicious things in the army, and we should only talk about the overall situation of success or failure, and we should not pick out the small mistakes of every word and deed. Since the responsibility of the matter is great, it incurs a lot of resentment. All kinds of things that are good for the frontier are not good for themselves. ”

"Moreover, if the enemy is in a hurry, the enemy will also be divided, so it is difficult to be a minister of the frontier. Your Majesty loves and protects the ministers, why should the ministers be too suspicious and afraid, but there is a danger in their hearts, and they dare not tell them. ”

Emperor Chongzhen sent an edict to reply to Yuan Chonghuan, and rewarded the python robe jade belt and silver coins, but Yuan Chonghuan did not accept the python robe and jade belt.

Under the condition that Emperor Chongzhen trusted him so much, Yuan Chonghuan came to Liaodong again, and the minister of the Wannian soy sauce male king hit a soy sauce again, and his butt was not hot, and he left Liaodong again, returned to the capital, and gave up his position to Yuan Chonghuan, and the depression in his heart can be imagined.

What did Yuan Chonghuan do when he went to Liaodong? directly took his Shang Fang sword and slashed Mao Wenlong, just because Mao Wenlong was disobedient? Who would believe that there is no intention of revenge on the last "Battle of Ningjin"? Wang Zaijin didn't believe it.

However, Emperor Chongzhen, who is now crossing, will naturally not make historical mistakes, Yuan Chonghuan is still pressed in the capital, and the ministers of the Wannian soy sauce male king will be sent to Shaanxi, and Wang Zaijin began to sit in Liaodong.

Wang Zaijin looked at Zu Dashou, and then looked at Man Gui, sighed in his heart, and finally understood Emperor Chongzhen's painstaking efforts, why he took the trouble to analyze the situation in Liaodong and analyze the war in Liaodong again and again, Wang Zaijin couldn't help but sigh: "The emperor is sage!" ”

really arrived in Liaodong, Wang Zaijin finally understood what Emperor Chongzhen meant by the strategic level.

In a war, there must be a strategic goal, and the victory or defeat of a war depends on whether your strategic goal is achieved, not on the victory of one or two battles. Obviously, Liaodong is a mess, and I need to spend a lot of effort to clean it up!

After making a gesture of please, Wang Zaijin once again said to Zu Dashou: "General Zu, please continue!" ”

"Since the Battle of Ningjin, there has not been much fighting outside the Guan, and small conflicts and frictions have not been broken, which can be regarded as normal." Zu Dashou looked at Wang Zaijin and said in a deep voice: "Dashuai, I still have that suggestion, we must send troops to take North Korea back." ”

"The humble post got the news that Houjin was stepping up its westward expansion, and Lin Dan Khan sent the Xuerji Lama to Shenyang to negotiate peace with Huang Taiji. Huang Taiji not only hinted at the return of the two Etoks to Houjin, but also asked to communicate directly with Lin Dan Khan. After Lin Dan Khan learned the fact that his two Etok had paid Houjin, not only did he not understand their good intentions, but instead crusaded against Naiman and Ao Han, who were under the pressure of Lin Dan Khan, and had betrayed Lin Dan Khan, attached themselves to Houjin, and made an oath with Huang Taiji. ”
