After Sun Chengzong led the main force of the Ming army to Luanzhou City, he immediately convened all the generals to discuss how to recover the remaining three cities. Of course, Wu Shigong, who has a humble official position, is not qualified to participate in this military conference.

Unexpectedly, at this military meeting, there was a fierce quarrel. The content of the quarrel is nothing more than two points: first, the seizure of Luanzhou City belongs to Qin Liangyu, and the other generals want Qin Liangyu to spit out some and distribute it to them; The second is to arrange which army will attack the next Yongping City.

Regarding the quarrel on the first point, Qin Liangyu was very powerful in the military discussion, and he really did not pull out a dime. Due to the convention that whoever captured in the battle of the Ming Dynasty army, coupled with Sun Chengzong's partiality for Qin Liangyu's independent recovery of Luanzhou City, the other generals did not get anything in the end.

As for the attack on Yongping City, Sun Chengzong refused to let go of Qin Liangyu's strong team. And Qin Liangyu had no way to shirk it. However, in view of the fact that Qin Liangyu's army suffered heavy casualties when attacking Luanzhou City, Sun Chengzong also agreed to Qin Liangyu and left a part of the army to garrison Luanzhou City.

Of course, Sun Chengzong understood Qin Liangyu's thoughts, Qin Liangyu wanted to keep his army to guard the captured property. Therefore, Sun Chengzong simply did it to the end as a good person, and took the rest of the Ming army away from Luanzhou City.

But such a quarrel delayed the work for two days. At this time, Amin, who led the main force of the Houjin army, had returned to Yongping City. On the one hand, gather all the looted goods; On the other hand, among the plunderers, only young men and women remained, and the rest were immediately slaughtered by Amin's order.

And this massacre completely revealed the true colors of the jackals of the Tartars, and they did not even let go of those Han officials who had surrendered to Houjin. At this time, the Ming army did not know about the tragedy of Yongping City, and they still hugged each other and marched unhurriedly.

However, when the vanguard of the Ming army led by the brave general Cao Wenzhao rescued a few surviving civilians under Yongping City, the Ming army learned that the Houjin army had slaughtered the city in Yongping City and had also retreated.

The main force of the Ming army immediately accelerated, and the soldiers drove into Yongping City without blood. And Amin gathered in Shuotuo, who was stationed in the two cities in the rear, and escorted the goods and people to withdraw outside the pass.

After learning the news of the retreat of the Houjin army, the Ming army immediately became active. Especially the cavalry of Zu Dashou's Liaodong Iron Cavalry and other armies, they relied on their cavalry horses to chase and kill in the direction of the retreat of the Houjin army.

There is such an opportunity to beat the water dogs and get money, how can the cavalry of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry and other armies let it go. At the beginning, those cavalry did have some gains, but after seeing the unscrupulous appearance of the Ming cavalry, Amin gathered part of the main force of the Houjin army and turned around to fight with the Ming cavalry.

In this battle, the Ming cavalry suffered a small defeat. Then the Ming army became cautious, and just followed behind the Houjin army from a distance, sending the Houjin army out of the customs.

In this way, the Ming army recovered the remaining two cities quite smoothly. Moreover, some property was seized somewhat. Moreover, the people who were slaughtered in Yongping City were all shaved their hair. The Ming army cut off the heads of these people, and they could also pretend to be Tartar heads to earn military merits. Don't be too satisfying! The only pity is the slaughtered people, who are all dead and will suffer this second wave of sins.

The main force of the Ming army was satisfied, and Wu Shigong, who stayed in Luanzhou City, was even more satisfied. After receiving Wu Shigong's letter, the Marquis of Gongshun and the Marquis of Yangwu immediately connected in the mansion of the magnates in the capital. Then, among those powerful people, there was a rare high efficiency, and they immediately sent stewards and hurried to Luanzhou City.

Anyway, Wu Shigong didn't need to go into detail about the bargaining with them. However, Wu Shigong still encountered a problem. At that time, when Qin Liangyu and Wu Shigong discussed, they felt that although they wanted to sell the land, they still couldn't make too much fanfare. So I decided to sell about 50,000 acres of land.

However, there were as many as 40 powerful families who came to Luanzhou City, and they all felt that the land allocated to them was too little. But at this time, Qin Liangyu and other major generals of the white pole soldiers had already gone to the other three cities, and the only one who remained in the camp of Luanzhou City was that Qin Qianhu. He can't make any ideas, everything has to be decided by Wu Shigong.

When he arrived in Zuihou, Wu Shigong gritted his teeth and sold his land endlessly. When I arrived in Zuihou, a total of more than 160,000 acres of land were sold.

However, Wu Shigong had an unexpected gain. Because the capital is still under martial law, although people can enter and exit with limited restrictions, there is really no way to organize so many carts to transport Qin Liangyu and Wu Shigong's belongings.

And because Wu Shigong wanted to put all his dead soldiers in coffins and bring them back to the deceased's hometown for burial, the number of carts was absolutely insufficient.

However, now those powerful people who buy land, they have to go to Luanzhou to build their own Zhuangzi. It is not difficult to recruit Zhuang Ding, anyway, there are a lot of refugees fleeing in the capital now. However, the grain and some daily necessities and tools of those Zhuang Ding still had to be transported from the capital with great effort.

But now Wu Shigong has ready-made food and materials here, so he can solve a large part of the problem. After these magnates spent money to buy these things from Wu Shigong, they could reduce a lot of money once they settled the accounts. And Wu Shigong also happened to have less trouble transporting these belongings.

So these days, on the one hand, Wu Shigong asked the soldiers to cut down trees to make coffins, and on the other hand, he asked the craftsmen in the camp to turn the captured weapons and scrap copper and iron from Luanzhou City into agricultural tools, ready to be delivered to the Zhuangzi of the powerful.

Seeing that Wu Shigong's business experience was the first to be the way, that Qin Qianhu was also impressed.

Of course, it is impossible for these stewards who came to buy land to bring so much cash with them. However, with the guarantee of the Gongshun Marquis Mansion and the Yangwu Marquis Mansion, they will pay the silver in the capital, and they are not afraid that they will repay the debt.

Next, Wu Shigong had nothing to do. Those stewards also arranged for people to go to the land boundary and go back to the capital to recruit refugees, etc., and they were very busy. As for how they will deal with the government in the future, Wu Shigong is not interested in caring about this.

Amin basically brought the main force of the blue flag back to Guanwai, and also kept most of the property and population. But as soon as he returned to Shengjing, he was punished and imprisoned by Huang Taiji. The owner of the blue flag was also transferred to the younger brother of Amin, who listened to the words of Huang Taiji, Zilharang.

Moreover, because the other two big Baylors prevented the Houjin army from entering the customs at that time, and Huang Taiji insisted on entering the customs, the harvest was particularly huge. Therefore, after the rise and fall of the other, the authority of Huang Taiji in Houjin was completely established.

And this time the change of his own life gave Emperor Chongzhen a huge psychological shock. Among them, the biggest impact on Emperor Chongzhen was that he found that the civil officials he relied on, mainly from the Donglin Party, could not be reused.

Don't talk about Yuan Chonghuan, that is, the head assistant of the Donglin Party and the secretary of the military department, their performance in this Jisi change is extremely clumsy. And what made Emperor Chongzhen hate even more was that he found that the first assistant and the military department Shangshu turned out to be the general backstage of Yuan Chonghuan, whom Emperor Chongzhen hated the most.

As a result, Emperor Chongzhen decided to also alienate those Donglin Party officials. But in this way, there are only a few civil officials left who can assist Emperor Chongzhen. Emperor Chongzhen was only able to personally handle a large number of state affairs, and became the second model worker among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty.

However, the two model workers of the Ming Dynasty, one is Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the country, and the other is Chongzhen, who died in the country, but they really echo from beginning to end!

However, in this operation to liquidate the officials of the Donglin Party, two non-party figures became the right-hand men of Emperor Chongzhen. They are Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren. They will also become the first assistants of the Chongzhen Dynasty in the near future.

With the support of these two ministers, after six months of arresting Yuan Chonghuan, Emperor Chongzhen finally decided to escort Yuan Chonghuan to Caishikou and execute Ling Chi. The main charges used were: Yuan Chonghuan colluded with Houjin, and after the release of the Jin army, he entered the customs and plundered the Jingfu area.

On the day of the execution, the people of the capital who hated Yuan Chonghuan to the bone were thunderous, fighting for his flesh, and Yuan Chonghuan also made a fuss about a dead body.

In all fairness, if you look at Yuan Chonghuan's crimes, Yuan Chonghuan was wronged. After all, all his life, Yuan Chonghuan has been fighting with Houjin. There was no act of surrender. This is also in stark contrast to the Han officials of Jin after the mass surrender of the latter.

However, Yuan Chonghuan, as the Ming Dynasty's superintendent in charge of the Liaodong War, controlled the largest army of the Ming Dynasty, occupied most of the Ming Dynasty's military salaries, and received the most adequate supply of money and food from Emperor Chongzhen.

But after Yuan Chonghuan boasted that Haikou had said five years of Pingliao, only one year later, the Houjin army hit the capital area of the Ming Dynasty. This is an unforgivable crime in any dynasty.

In a word: Yuan Chonghuan's death is his death from his incompetence.

And the consequences of Yuan Chonghuan's actions made the situation in the Ming Dynasty, which was relatively calm in the early years of Chongzhen, quickly deteriorated. Therefore, it can also be said that Yuan Chonghuan was one of the culprits who caused the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

After getting the news that the Ming army had recovered the four cities of Yongping, Emperor Chongzhen was ecstatic. Because this is the only bright spot shown in the Ming army's battle in this Jisi Change.

Although in the recital of meritorious service, because Sun Chengzong wanted to balance and appease the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, Qin Liangyu's credit was not ranked first. However, from Emperor Chongzhen to all the ministers who know about the war situation, they all know that Qin Liangyu has made the first contribution to the recovery of the four cities of Yongping this time.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen immediately sent a eunuch to reward the Ming army, and asked this eunuch to send a holy message to Qin Liangyu: tell Qin Liangyu to go to the capital immediately, and Emperor Chongzhen will personally summon her. And this eunuch who conveyed the holy oracle was Wu Shigong's old acquaintance - Gonggong Qin.
