The cold wind goes east, which belongs to the coldest in the whole north, because spring always comes! But there is an old saying in the north that it is better to melt the snow than to melt the cold, which is like the night before dawn, and no one knows what will happen when the road is dawn.

Sun Chengzhong stood on the wall of Shenyang and looked at the entire northern country and couldn't help but sigh, Li Jiancheng's latest letter to him had arrived, and the content of the letter was like this. In the letter, Li Jiancheng asked him to prepare for retreat, and the attack of the Houjin heavy army was a foregone conclusion!

Although Xiong Ting Porridge had been based on the few remaining sergeant fortresses in Liaodong, the Jin soldiers and horses were repulsed! But where are there people who win by defense? The most important thing is to eliminate the enemy's vitality, but in the Battle of Salhu, the biggest win of Houjin is to eliminate the Ming Dynasty's largest vitality in Liaodong, plus it won Tieling and Kaiyuan and other passes, Shenyang and other places are completely equivalent to the fat exposed under its fangs, he can bite whenever he wants!

And what is real is that it may be that for Houjin said that Nurhachi, he is not very eager to eat these places in Shenyang, because with the advantage of Tieling, Kaiyuan and other places, he can completely attack, retreat and defend, and there is no place east of the Liao River to block his passage, which can be seen in Sun Chengzhong's previous sand table drill. For Nurhachi, he may have hoped that the Ming army could come to the rescue of Shenyang and other places! Because for Nurhachi, as long as he swung his soldiers and horses to the front line, he completely cut off the entire communication east of the Liao River, and no soldiers and horses in the city dared to go out of the city, and almost all places became isolated!

Because no one dared to go out of the city and fight with the Houjin soldiers and horses. It is for this reason that it would be better for Nurhachi to come with reinforcements at this time. March 13 in the original history. Nurhachi led a heavy army to besiege Shenyang. At that time, Yuan Yingtai had discussed three ways to go out. Trying to recover Qinghe and Fushun. Before he could do it, the Jin soldiers had already arrived at the city of Shenyang. The city of Shenyang is very strong, the outside of the city is dunked, the logging is a fence, the artillery is ambushed, and the guard is very strict. When Nurhachi arrived, he did not immediately force into the city, but first reconnoitred with dozens of cavalry in the trenches. You Shigong, the chief soldier of the first army in Shenyang, pursued and beheaded the fourth level. The chief soldier He Shixian led more than 1,000 soldiers out of the city to meet the battle, and Nurhachi was defeated. Shixian rode the sharp attack, and suddenly the enemy rode in a quadruple, and Shixian was defeated. The troops in the city surrendered and rebelled, the suspension bridge outside the city was broken, and Shixian died in battle. You Shigong brought troops to help, but he also died in battle. The soldiers outside the city were all defeated, and the generals Xia Guoqing, Zhang Gang, Zhizhou Duan Zhan, and Tongzhi Chen Fuguang all died in battle. At that time, Chen Ce, the commander-in-chief of Sichuan and Zhejiang, led the Sichuan soldiers to cross the Hunhe River for reinforcements, and Tong Zhonghua and others were killed in battle. Later, the Jin army then captured the city of Shenyang. This battle was the first bloody battle since Liaozuo used his troops.

In December of the same year, Wang Hua Zhenyan pacified Houjin in March, and the day passed, and his initiative led to an even more fiasco defeat. One step closer to the loss of the vitality of the Ming army. These failures of theirs directly illustrate a problem, aiding and seizing Shenyang and other places under such circumstances is simply looking for death! Just because Houjin's absolute superiority over the field is enough.

Shenyang and other places were completely exposed to the feet of the Houjin Iron Rider. From Nurhachi's point of view, his and Sun Chengzhong's drills were completely different, because the angles pursued by both sides were different, Nurhachi did not necessarily have to seize Shenyang and other places, for him, he got more benefits from killing the army of the People's Dynasty, and history has proved this. And if Li Jiancheng wants to pacify here, he must not only increase his troops and constantly fight against the Houjin Iron Cavalry, but also sacrifice the limited vitality of the Ming Dynasty! And even if Jin can't beat Shenyang for a while, he can start to eat from the surrounding area little by little, and then turn it into a lonely city, and the reinforcements are waiting for you to come~! At that time, he Li Jiancheng will have to use his limited vitality to fight a decisive battle with Houjin, which is exactly what Nurhachi wants to see, and once the situation becomes like this, then Li Jiancheng will have to be saved if he can't save it, and he will call all the soldiers and horses he can send, and the result will not be better than how good Wang Huazhen Yuan Yingtai did, maybe it will be even worse!

Who called people to be a person on a horse, attacking and retreating, and Hu Fu rode and shot Gu Zhongyuan! The hard equipment is really not as good as others, and the Houjin troops are desperately fighting field battles, fighting and shooting, and how many people die as much as they go! After Li Jiancheng thought about it, there was no army that could fight against his enemies, and then Li Jiancheng decided to give up these places in Shenyang! Because it is really unwise to have a limited amount of vitality in this consumption of Houjin, Chairman Mao said well! What we should pursue is the great depth of strategy, not the gains and losses of one city and one place!

For Li Jiancheng, what is he lacking most at the moment? That's more time for development! His territory was so big that he couldn't reach out of his claws, and it was nothing for him to lose a little! At present, it is true to preserve the vitality and wait for the great development, and when he Li Jiancheng's cannons are all out, are he afraid of fighting a field battle with you? When the time comes, don't say that you came on horseback, even if you come on a dragon, you will come and kill as many as you want! From the perspective of strategic development, Li Jiancheng didn't take it into account, even if you want the territory of Liaodong so much, you want me to give it to you!

Li Jiancheng knew that after Nurhachi captured Liaodong, he would move the capital to Liaoyang and build the city of Tokyo. In addition, it will take time to digest after swallowing up so much territory, and Li Jiancheng's initiative to retreat from the Ming Dynasty's army losses will also be greatly reduced, so that a more consolidated rear defense line can be established so that Nurhachi is also at a loss for a while, so that the two sides are bound to get a peaceful period of development, and for Li Jiancheng, he is not enough to explode Nurhachi thousands of streets than he is to develop, he Li Jiancheng is to use the territory of Liaodong to fight for the time and stability of the entire development of Liaobei and peaceful development, he really has no time to die with Dazi here!

In his letter to Sun Chengzhong, Li Jiancheng made these truths clear, and he said: Mr. Sun's Liaodong land is all right and wrong, and at present, I have no strength to fight with Jiannu head-on! It is really unwise to consume it for a long time here, and I have no shame to face my ancestors and ancestors if I lose my land, but the loss of my Ming vitality here is even deeper, so I can't do it! The so-called other ambition, not for the same place, even if there is no advantage for the time being, it is better to be ready to wait and look for fighters!

Li Jiancheng spoke bitterly, and he continued: Mr. Sun, my Daming's problem is far more than the harm of this Jiannu, it can be said that it is internal and external troubles, and this internal troubles are not only He Ping's external troubles? So it's going to take a lot of time! If I can integrate my inner worries and regain my martial arts, why do I need to worry about not having the power to fight against Jiannu like now? So Mr. Sun, I need you to give me time, and the country needs you to preserve a little bit of vitality for it! And all this needs to be borne by Mr. Sun, which I am sorry for you, I promise that Mr. Sun's feelings will never be forgotten, and one day I will give Mr. Sun a great reason!

After reading this paragraph, Sun Chengzhong stood in the wind of the high wall, but he was in tears, he couldn't help but think of what he said to the emperor when he set off that day, and he still remembered what the emperor said, I only hope that more innocent people can be safe. Sun Chengzhong knelt down heavily as he looked in the direction of the capital, and he shouted loudly: "Minister, Sun Chengzhong, Your Majesty Xie trusts, Your Majesty Xie is loved, long live my emperor, long live Long live, long live my minister, the minister will die without regrets!" ”

Li Jiancheng would never have expected how important his two sentences of 'I need you' and 'the country needs you' were to Sun Chengzhong! History is heavier than those who dare to bear him, at least here Li Jiancheng's guilt is certain, Li Jiancheng's strategy is good, but the loss of the responsibility of Liao and Shen needs someone to bear it, this responsibility Li Jiancheng can't bear, so he can only fall on Sun Chengzhong, the old man, Li Jiancheng is full of shame, this responsibility will not only make him bear the infamy of a thousand generations, but also maybe take the life of this old man.

And Sun Chengzhong accepted all this without hesitation, just because of Li Jiancheng's sentence, 'I need you to buy me time, and the country needs you to reserve a trace of vitality for him' Sun Chengzhong was loyal to Xu Xianchun, who also knew the inside story on the side, also sighed, and he couldn't help but step forward and said: "Mr. Sun will definitely feel sorry for Mr. Sun if he wants to come to His Majesty, so Mr. Sun is cold outside, Mr. Please sit inside!" ”

Sun Chengzhong nodded and stood up and said, "All the decay that Your Majesty has explained has already been known, so you can let it go!" ”

Xu Xianchun looked at the old man's determination, and he also sincerely admired: "Yes, please rest assured, Mr. Sun!" (To be continued......)
