Does Mao Wenlong have any different intentions? Maybe there is.

According to the Imperial History Report, Mao Wenlong once made arrogant remarks, saying that according to Phi Dao, it would be easy to capture Nanjing. It can be seen that it is arrogant and rebellious.

It is the tradition of the Ming Dynasty to take the imperial martial arts, but since the governor of Denglai, Yuan Keli, left office, no one can resist Mao Wenlong, and the orders of the imperial court, Mao Wenlong began to disobey the yin and yang, satisfied with the secession of Phi Island, and then had no ambition to capture Liaodong. Therefore, if Mao Wenlong will divide Phi Island and stand on its own, no one can say for sure.

Therefore, Sun Chuanting did not kill Mao Wenlong, but Mao Wenlong must be taken away, so that he would not return to the Dongjiang River, and he would not be allowed to join his generals and troops again.

The snake has no head and does not go, without Mao Wenlong, the generals of Phi Dao will naturally not be able to make any trouble, Sun Chuanting can use the position of the general army of Phi Dao and money and food as bait to make the generals of Phi Dao honest and obedient.

The generals of the Dongjiang Army can abandon their surnames and worship Mao Wenlong as their godfather and grandfather for the sake of profit, and they are not loyal people, and it is impossible for Mao Wenlong to oppose the court. What's more, Mao Wenlong did not die, but went to Zhejiang to be the chief soldier. Compared with the desolate Phi Island, Zhejiang can be described as a prosperous and wealthy place, and there is no need to fight, in the eyes of most people, it is of course many times better to go to Zhejiang as a general soldier than Phi Dao.

Therefore, the generals of the Dongjiang Army, Mao Wenlong's godsons and grandsons, will only express envy for Mao Wenlong's dismissal, how can they make a mess because of this? Unless these people are anti-minded in the first place.

In another time and space, Yuan Chonghuan supervised Liaodong, but he took the method of directly killing Mao Wenlong, and the means were tougher and there were more troubles.

At that time, Yuan Chonghuan held the four towns of Jizhou, Liaoxi, Dongjiang and Denglai, and supervised Liaodong with the title of Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and held the sword of Shangfang. He could have used a gentle method to deal with Mao Wenlong, but he killed Mao Wenlong directly.

Of course, kill it, it's nothing, it only takes a while, and slowly rectify the Dongjiang River, with Yuan Chonghuan's power and the majesty of the imperial court, it is still easy to do this. And Mao Wenlong's killing, at the beginning, did not set off any waves in Phi Dao, the generals of Phi Dao, Mao Wenlong's godson and grandson, no one said to avenge Mao Wenlong, but stared at the position of the general army of Phi Dao one by one.

But God did not give Yuan Chonghuan time to rectify the Dongjiang River, Jiannu soon detoured to the Mongol invasion and hit outside Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen was furious, and Yuan Chonghuan was imprisoned and executed, and Yuan Chonghuan's plan to rectify the Dongjiang River could no longer be implemented.

In the following time, the imperial court had to face the extremely vicious Jiannu, and also sent troops to encircle and suppress the rebellious northern Shaanxi exile army, how could it have the energy to manage Phi Dao, which was thousands of miles away, and could only let tens of thousands of troops and more than 100,000 people on Phi Dao fend for themselves.

Of course, some people say that the reason why Jiannu will make a detour to Jibei to invade is because Mao Wenlong was killed, and Jiannu has no worries, if Mao Wenlong does not die, Jiannu will not dare to make a detour to Mongolia.

Actually, Mao Wenlong's role is really not that big. Just look at the location of Phi Dao, Phi Dao is located outside the Yalu River, send troops from Phi Dao, at most threaten Zhenjiang Fort Kuandian and other places, and Zhenjiang Kuandian is still separated from Jianzhou by hundreds of miles of Changbai Mountain, and there are one or two thousand miles of mountain roads from Liaoyang and Shenyang, and the Dongjiang Army has no threat to Jiannu's nest at all.

On the contrary, it was the Liaoxi soldiers who could really threaten the old nest of Jiannu, who sent troops from Jinzhou and crossed the Liaohe River, which was the Liaoshen Plain, and there was no danger in the middle. It only takes half a month to send troops from Jinzhou, and they can kill the city of Liaoyang.

The strength of the Liaoxi soldiers is several times that of the Dongjiang soldiers, and there are a large number of cavalry troops, Jiannu is not afraid of the Liaoxi soldiers who are close at hand to copy their old nests, how can they be afraid of the Dongjiang army attacking and disturbing the flank? It doesn't make sense at all!

Whether the Dongjiang Army had a role in restraining Jiannu or not, naturally there were. Sending troops from Phi Dao could attack Zhenjiang and cut off the connection between Jiannu and Korea. Sending troops from Guanglu Island can capture Lushun Jinzhou Fuzhou, occupy the mountainous area of southern Liaoning, and threaten the hinterland of Jiannu from the south. In this case, Jiannu would face the threat of the Ming army from the east, west, and south. This is the role of the Dongjiang Army.

It's a bit far, back to the point.

Now Sun Chuanting did not choose to kill Mao Wenlong, but just in case, Mao Wenlong could no longer be allowed to return to Phi Island, and Mao Wenlong and his men must be isolated from now on.

Therefore, Sun Chuanting once again summoned Mao Wenlong's generals and announced his arrangements for Dongjiang Town, temporarily dividing Dongjiang Town into four associations and dividing the Dongjiang soldiers into four parts, respectively, by the deputy general Chen Jisheng, the staff generals Mao Chengzuo and Mao Chenglu, and the guerrilla general Liu Xingzuo to lead the army of the First Association, because Chen Jisheng has the highest official rank and is in charge of Mao Wenlong's general seal.

Among the four generals, Chen Jisheng is Mao Wenlong's deputy general, and he can be regarded as a confidant. Mao Chengzuo Ping Suri doesn't lead troops very much, and he doesn't have much ability, but he is the son of Mao Wenlong, so there is naturally no problem in managing the First Association. And Mao Chenglu is Mao Wenlong's adopted son, and he is also the most respected adopted son, and he is in charge of the pro-army composed of the most powerful adopted son and grandson in Mao Wenlong's hands and the Jurchen soldiers, so there is naturally no problem in being this assistant general.

And Liu Xingzuo is a general, Wanli 23 years was plundered by Jiannu as a slave, stayed in Jiannu for 18 years, outstanding talent, deeply valued by Nurhachi, married to the daughter of the sect, known as Liu Aita. Liu Xingzuo became a deputy general in Jiannu and was appointed to govern Jinzhou, Fuzhou, Haizhou, Gaizhou, and the land of the Southern Four Guards. However, Liu Xingzuo was in the slave camp, but he was concerned about the Ming Dynasty, and in the third year of the Apocalypse, he secretly organized the Liao people in Fuzhou to flee, and repeatedly corresponded with Yuan Keli, the governor of Denglai at that time, expressing his heart to return to the Ming, and agreed to cooperate with the outside to drive away the slave soldiers in southern Liaoning, but was informed of the slave chieftain by the traitor Wang Bingjue.

Nurhachi ordered the capture of Aita and Li Yongfang's eldest son, slaughtered the people of Fuzhou, and moved the people of Jinzhou and Gaizhou into the interior.

The anti-Jin incident planned by Liu Xingzuo was quickly suppressed by Nurhachi, resulting in the killing of 20,000 Liao people in Fuzhou and the emptiness of southern Liaoning. Liu Xingzuo flatly denied that he had anything to do with this incident, and Nurhachi still trusted Liu Xingzuo very much, and did not believe that he would betray him, so he killed Wang Bing, who was informant, and Liu Xingzuo's younger brother Liu Xingren, and only demoted Liu Xingzuo to a general.

Liu Xingzuo stayed with Jiannu for several more years, and finally last year, that is, the first year of Chongzhen, he escaped from Jiannu and returned to Ming with self-immolation.

Liu Xingzuo has been in the Jiannu camp for nearly 20 years, and he is very familiar with the situation of Jiannu, and Sun Chuanting naturally wants to reuse him, but it is not easy to arrange his position in Liaoxi, and he rashly let his commander be afraid that the generals in Liaoxi will not be convinced. Now that Mao Wenlong has been taken and Dongjiang Town has been reorganized, he has been promoted to deputy general and put him in charge of the Dongjiang Army.
