Chapter 315: Miserable Reappearance, Heavenly Dao is good

In Jianzhou, the Huifa Department set a precedent and took the initiative to surrender and counterattack, so that the Ming army took the city of Hetuara at a very small cost.

But in the entire Liaodong battlefield, the Huifa Department was not the first.

As early as two days ago, the two gates of Liaoyang City were opened, and the Huanglong Department surged in, annihilating 3,000 enemies and recovering the town. However, it was Yehebu who led Wu Bahai and Gebaku who made meritorious contributions.

In the face of the Ming army's counteroffensive with strong soldiers and high morale, the splits of the Houjin bandit group became more and more obvious and more frequent.

The trench defense line established by Jiannu south of Shenyang also collapsed under the onslaught of the Ming army. The captured Han soldiers showed bravery, and with the support of intensive artillery fire, they killed and wounded many Jiannu.

And the reason for the final collapse of the defense line was not only the fierce attack of the Ming army. The Ming army's naval division suddenly appeared in the Hunhe River, traced the river, and went straight to Shenyang, which was equivalent to cutting off the back road of Jiannu who blocked the Ming army.

Yue Zhi and Fan Wencheng did not dare to fight again, and led the remnants of the army to retreat in panic, and after escaping the Hunhe River, they set fire to the bridge in order to block the Ming army.

But their attempts did not have much effect, the Ming army was complete with land and water troops, and after erecting pontoon bridges, they crossed the river in a big way, and the troops were directed at Shenyang.

The defeated Yue Zhi Department who retreated to Shenyang did not dare to stay longer, guarding the last group of Jurchen people and retreating eastward.

The sight of the end of the dynasty?!

Fan Wencheng rode east with the army on horseback, and all he saw were panicked Jurchen civilians. Dragged his family with his mouth, drove and rode on horseback, and rode forward in the cold wind, and heard the sound of crying from time to time.

Feng Shui takes turns, it is really good to return the way of heaven, and the retribution is not happy.

After the old slave rebelled against the Ming Dynasty, he attacked the city and plundered the land in Liaodong, causing many Liao families to be ruined and their wives separated.

In order to strengthen control over the Han people in Liaodong and prevent defection, the old slave also ordered the relocation of the Han people many times.

On November 12, the first year of the Apocalypse, Lao Nu ordered all Han people living in Changdian, Yongdian, Dadian, Xindian, Guhe and other villages along the Yalu River to move to the castle where the Jurchens lived and live with the Jurchens.

On November 18, the first year of the Apocalypse, Nurhachi sent Amin to lead thousands of troops to Zhenjiang, Kuandian, Sanhe, Tangshan, Zhendong, Zhenxi, Xincheng and other places, and moved residents to Fushun, Salhu and other areas.

In the fourth year of the Apocalypse, the old slave sent Li Qigu to allocate the people of the Great Black Mountain to the Tiger Skin Station.

The Liao people who were forcibly relocated received a relocation order on the first day and were driven on the road the next day.

From the Daling River in the west, to the Yalu River in the east, to Jinzhou in the south, to the Puhe River in the north, the Han people in the west of the Liaohe River go to the east of the Liaohe River, and go to the mountains along the north of the river.

Urban residents moved to villages, helped the old and the young, swept the floors and went out, the city corridors were empty, the fields were abandoned, the cries shook the wilderness, and they left their hometowns. Those who have the slightest attachment are slaughtered.

The Liao people who were relocated, the men were whipped, the wives and daughters were humiliated, the old and weak filled the ravines, and the children abandoned the roadside. During the day, he hurried with hunger and hunger, and slept in the countryside at night.

They were driven to a strange village, exhausted, and had to become serfs in Houjin.

Now, Jiannu has also tasted this pain. Leave the cities and houses they plundered and steal, brave the cold, and go to destinations where they don't know where to stop.

"The Ming army is still moving, and it must be done in one battle." Fan Wencheng approached Li Yongfang and said in a low voice.

Li Yongfang was left in Shenyang to take over Yue's subordinate department, to put it bluntly, he was the queen of the palace, and such a decision also showed the distrust of Dolgon, Daishan and others.

At this time, not to mention Han officials and generals, even the descendants of the Jurchen tribes must also take precautions. Besides, Li Yongfang doesn't seem to have any use value.

Li Yongfang sighed lightly and said slowly: "Since it is the power of the whole country, how can you give up halfway?" It was not so easy for the Ming Emperor to raise enough money and materials. ”

Fan Wencheng nodded and said, "If it can last for another year and a half, I'm afraid the Ming Kingdom won't be able to support it." ”

Li Yongfang glanced at Fan Wencheng strangely, not knowing how he could have such an idea.

Fan Wencheng saw Li Yongfang's doubts, and slowly explained: "It's been several years, how much money has been spent on training and raising soldiers, adding equipment, and food and grass materials, and where did it come from?" ”

After a pause, he continued: "How can corrupt officials, wealthy merchants, gentry, and landlords seize their homes and seize their wealth in the long run? According to what he saw, the emperor of the Ming Kingdom had no choice but to attack the powerful and the clan. ”

Li Yongfang thought for a while and said, "You mean that if Dajin can support it, there will be civil strife in the Ming Kingdom?" ”

"It should be." Fan Wencheng gave an affirmative answer, but it was not categorical, and he was also a little uncertain.

Li Yongfang raised his head, looked at the soldiers and civilians who were moving forward, and only smiled bitterly for a long time, and said, "But I don't agree with your judgment." ”

Oh? Fan Wencheng looked at the past, but he was also puzzled and puzzled.

Li Yongfang narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "You only saw that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom had robbed his family and seized wealth in a few years, but he didn't find that he didn't increase taxes, right?" Not only did it not increase, but it was also reduced, what does this mean? ”

Fan Wencheng frowned, the answer was not difficult, and said: "It shows that the finances can still be supported as much as possible, and it will not dry up and cause civil strife." ”

"The Ming army is already so powerful, who dares to do anything to expose it?" Li Yongfang shook his head and said: "Although this Ming Emperor is young, he understands things well, and he has ruthless methods that are not afraid of stigma, which is really difficult to deal with. ”

Deal?! Isn't it a misnomer to say this now?

Fan Wencheng showed a somewhat ugly smile and said: "I'm not afraid of what is recorded in the history books, I'm not afraid of the resentment of the readers, I only concentrate on collecting money and strengthening the army, this faint king is really powerful." ”

"Faint Jun-" Li Yongfang smiled bitterly and sighed, "No matter how much the gentry and scholars scold him, no matter how the history books are written, it will be useless!" ”

Fan Wencheng also sighed heavily, it was useless to say it, and it didn't help to change the current decline at all.

Unless the Ming Emperor dies suddenly, the Ming army may stop its counteroffensive and give Dajin time to breathe.

But even if this fantasy can come true, Dajin, who has greatly reduced his troops and lacks food and grass materials, will survive a very sad winter.

At this moment, a messenger, Pegasus, arrived and reported to Yue Tsu. Soon, Yue Zhi's order was handed down, and he accelerated his advance, passing through Fushun without stopping.

From the direction from which the messenger came, Fan Wencheng and Li Yongfang both knew that it was a letter sent by the Great Bel Daishan or the new Khan King who had retreated north first, and the order was handed down.

Since it was not the news of the chasing troops behind him, he suddenly had to speed up the retreat, and even Fushun couldn't stop resting, could it be that the Ming army blocked the road to the north?

Could it be that Jianzhou was lost, and Dongjiang Town copied Salhu to cut off the road to the north?

Fan Wencheng and Li Yongfang glanced at each other, and they both saw the panic and uneasiness in each other's eyes. But no one spoke, and this most terrible conjecture was spoken.
