Three days later, more than ten miles north of Shenyang, dozens of large pits were filled in the wilderness, and among these pits were the city of Shenyang, captured by the Manchus and Mongols captured by various units of the Ming army.

As these hundreds of thousands of people were killed by the Ming army, the soldiers and horses of the Ming army also began to attack all parts of Liaodong, and successively pursued and killed the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty who surrounded and suppressed various places.

According to Liu Yan's unified deployment, the First Army and the Second Army of the National Defense Force went north and were responsible for recovering Tielingwei, Liaohaiwei, Anlezhou, Fushun and other places.

The Third and Fourth Armies of the National Defense Forces went east and were responsible for recovering all parts of Shenyang to the east.

The Fifth and Sixth Armies of the National Defense Army went south and were responsible for recovering a large area of eastern Liaodong territory south of Shenyang City, such as Dingliao Right Guard.

According to the information provided by the various departments at night, there are currently some Manchus and Mongols in these parts of Liaodong, but most of them are stragglers who were originally left behind by Dolgon, and there are hundreds of people in each place, and there are dozens of people at the least, so there is no need to worry at all.

In addition, there were some Qing troops who fled from Shenyang City, but these routs mainly fled in two directions, one to the west and the other to Nuergandusi and other places in the east and north.

So Liu Yan mobilized the officers and men of the Seventh, Eighth, Ninth and Tenth Armies of the National Defense Army to kill the Nuer Gandu Division, and successively surrounded and suppressed the Manchu remnants scattered in the Nuer Gandu Division.

Liu Yan, with the superintendent Li Dingguo as the commander, led the officers and men of the four national defense forces to set off.

Liu Yan specially instructed Li Dingguo, Zheng Yi, Xu Ming, Qian Zhang, and Jia Hongyu: "The Nuer Gandu Division is very vast, and there are many Hu people in various places. ”

"The second thing is to rebuild the castles and cities of the Ming Dynasty in Nuer Gandusi one after another, this matter will take a long time, the imperial court will continue to transport money, food and materials to the north, and will transport some Han army banner prisoners over to fully support you."

"The third thing is to deter and win over the Hu tribes in all parts of the Nuer Gandu Division, and those who are strong and disobey the orders will be eradicated on the spot immediately!!"

Li Dingguo and others even have a great responsibility for this move, the territory of Nuer Gandu Division is wide, even above Liaodong, although the recovery of Nuer Gandu Division is a continuation of the battle to destroy the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but the power and merit of this is enough to encourage everyone.

"Please rest assured, my subordinates will definitely take back all the slaves!"

After the various ministries set off one after another, Liu Yan began to think about the specific instructions for the establishment of the Governor's Office.

First of all, for example, in places such as Nuergandusi and the Mongolian steppe, they must not be like Liaodong, North and South Zhili, and 13 provinces, and set up a metropolitan government to deploy troops, but to imitate the capital of the Han and Tang dynasties, and directly implement the military management of the integration of military and political affairs in these places.

"If Nu'er Gandu Division, after taking it back, it might as well be called Andong Duhufu."

A few days later, Tielingwei.

Wang Yue, the chief military officer, led the soldiers of the Second Army of the National Defense Army, surrounded the Tieling Acropolis, at this time there were only more than 100 Qing soldiers in the city, led by a Niu Lu Zhangjing, seeing thousands of elite soldiers of the Ming army coming to the city, these Qing soldiers temporarily recruited by Niu Lu suddenly panicked, not to mention defending the city, and even many people have fled from the city wall, ready to return to the city to change into the clothes of the Han people, trying to get through the pass in confusion and seek a way to survive.

"Let people speak Chinese, tell the Tartars in the city to open the door and surrender!!"

A guerrilla general next to him asked, "Headquarters, don't you give some conditions?" The subordinates are afraid that the Tartars will not agree. ”

"Give back the conditions? What is the situation now, what qualifications do Tartars have to talk about conditions! ”

Wang Yue pointed to the front and said loudly: "Let the soldiers prepare, just give the Qing army in the city half an hour, if you don't surrender, you will kill it, and no one will ......."

Before Wang Yue finished speaking, he saw the gate of Tielingwei slowly open, and dozens of Qing soldiers with raised hands walked out of the city, and then all knelt on both sides of the road, waiting for the disposal of the Ming soldiers.

Seeing this scene, Wang Yue, who was about to kill, suddenly pursed his lips and muttered: "These Tartars are really spineless!" ”

Then Wang Yue ordered to enter the city and tied up all the more than 100 tartars.

"Chief, what to do with these captives?"

Wang Yue, who rode into the city, saw that all the people in the city were all dispalate, and the clothes on his body were also tattered, which could even be described as not covering his body. Moreover, almost all the people showed resentful expressions on their faces when they saw the Qing soldiers being tied up, and some men even used anything they could hold in their hands to roar and smash at the Qing prisoners.

Wang Yue said: "Bring all these captives to the gate of the city and hand them over to the people in the city to dispose of, whether they live or die!" ”

"Yes!!"

On that day, there was an astonishing scene in the Tieling Acropolis, more than 100 Qing soldiers were tied hand and foot, and thousands of angry people around roared and rushed forward, beating them with sticks and farm tools, and even biting with their teeth and hands, and in a blink of an eye, more than 100 Qing soldiers were overwhelmed by the wave of angry people, and all of them died without corpses.

On this day, Tielingwei was recovered by the Ming army.

At the same time, Chen Xun also led the officers and soldiers of the First Army of the National Defense Army to arrive at the city of Anlezhou.

Anle Prefecture is a local establishment under the Liaodong Prefecture, established in the seventh year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, originally set up specifically for the resettlement of the Hu people who moved in the northeast region, and it is also an important place for the resettlement of the Jurchen tribes in the Kaiyuan area.

At this time, Anle Prefecture had been taken by Chen Xun and his troops, and there were thousands of people in the city, which was a place where there were more Manchurians in Liaodong.

Chen Xun stood on the city wall, looking at the Manchurian people who were being taken out of the city, most of these people were old and weak, women and children, and a large number of children, all crying at this time, these Manchu people seemed to know what their fate would be!

Suddenly, a woman rushed out of the queue, although she was directly stopped by the Ming soldiers who were guarding her, but she still shouted loudly: "We are all ordinary people, we have never killed Han people, and we are also oppressed by the Qing army and powerful people on weekdays, and even the men in the family have been forcibly conscripted to fight, and now we don't know where to die, why do we have to be exterminated!" ”

Then the rest of the thousands of Manchurian people also shouted, many of them were crying, and some began to attack the Ming soldiers who were guarding.

Chen Xun frowned when he saw this, in fact, he led his troops to kill a lot of Manchus along the way, most of them were old and weak women and children, and most of the soldiers in the Ming army did not have any mercy, after all, even if these Manchus were women and children, there were men in their families who joined the Qing army and committed a lot of blood debts to the Han people.

Of course, there were also a small number of Ming army officers and soldiers who could not bear it, thinking that such a killing was no different from the brutal Qing army, and expressed their views to the Shangguan.

However, these voices of opposition were soon drowned out by even greater opposition.

"Sympathize with the Tartars? Then the lives of millions of Han people in Liaodong are not fate! ”

"There is no soul under the sword! These Manchurians haven't had one or two Qing soldiers in that family? Which of these Manchurians has not enjoyed the money and food brought by the looting pass? Today is the time for them to pay back! ”

"Those who are not of my race will have different hearts! If you don't kill them all today, do you want to be like the Chenghua Plough Court, let the Manchurians recuperate for decades, and then turn around and kill again? ”

Soon, the voices of sympathy for these Manchurian people disappeared, and at this time, Chen Xun looked at the Manchurians who were shouting, and only said coldly: "Now we all know that they are pitiful, when the Qing soldiers repeatedly entered the customs, what they wore on their bodies, what they ate in their mouths, and what they used in their hands, which one was not looted back from the customs by the Qing soldiers?" Which one is not stained with the blood of the Han people! Come out and mix, sooner or later you have to change it, and today the town will let these Tartars repay them with interest! ”

The surrounding Ming soldiers nodded in agreement, tolerance towards the enemy is cruelty to oneself.

Soon, the Manchurians outside the city were forcibly taken away by a large number of Ming soldiers, and all of them were taken to the earthen pit a few miles outside the city.

It only took two days for the matter on the side of Anlezhou, and then Chen Xun led his troops to continue to advance northward, recovering more than a dozen castles and guard cities along the way, and led his troops to the northernmost part of Liaodong before leading the army to stop.

At this time, Li Dingguo had already led the officers and men of the Seventh, Eighth, Ninth and Tenth Armies of the National Defense Army into the hinterland of Nuer Gandusi, and the three guards of Jianzhou had been wiped out by nearly 200,000 elite Ming troops and turned into a blank land.

The Manchus and Mongols scattered around Jianzhou Sanwei have all been "cleared" by the officers and soldiers of the Ming army.

The officers and men of the Ming army, also under the command of Li Dingguo, began to attack in the northeast direction in three ways, and the officers and men of the four national defense armies successively recovered many strategic places in Nuer Gandusi, such as Tainingwei, Wuzhi Right Guard, Wuzhi Guard, Duoyanwei, Fuyuwei and other places.

It's just that now these guards set up by the Ming Dynasty have been completely abandoned, not only the remains of the Ming army originally stationed in these guard posts and fortresses have disappeared, but there is no trace of the Han people in the surrounding area, and only many Hu tribes scattered everywhere remain.

In this regard, Li Dingguo ordered all units of the Ming army to begin to forcibly relocate the Hu tribes in various places, and used the relics of the original guard posts and fortresses in various places to move the neighboring Hu tribes to gather and live in various places, breaking the boundaries of their respective tribes, and breaking up and merging all of them.

At the same time, Li Dingguo led his troops to spend several months to draw a chart of the situation of Hu people living in various parts of the Nuer Gandu Division, and reported it to the cabinet, and the imperial court began to set up prefectures and counties in the Nuer Gandu Division, and stationed officials to govern the localities.

During this period, a large number of people who accompanied Li Dingguo's nearly 200,000 troops to the north, as well as a large number of prisoners of various banners of the Han army, began to build construction in various places, repairing and even tearing down and rebuilding the abandoned Ming fortresses and cities in various places.

Thanks to the large-scale use of cement and the power of the imperial court with the help of merchants from all over the country, the reconstruction of the Nuer Gandu Division and all parts of Liaodong went very smoothly, but the cost of money and grain was very huge, so Shangshu Yueming of the Ministry of Finance wrote to Liu Yan several times to complain.

Of course, this is all in a few months' time, so let's not say it at this time.

At this time, Li Dingguo's main energy was to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in various places, suppress the Hu tribes who did not submit to them, and the Hu tribes who migrated to various places on a large scale.

At the same time, Liu Yan also began to worry in the city of Shenyang, at this time, although the disaster in the northwestern provinces of the Ming Dynasty was alleviated, but the amount of money and food paid by the imperial court for this did not decrease much.

In addition, now that Liaodong has been recovered, as well as most of the Nuer Gandu Division, hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Ming army are still stranded in various parts of the Northeast, and the imperial court has to bear huge military expenses and reconstruction costs for this, plus the pension expenses of the casualties, the reward expenses of the meritorious soldiers, and so on.

After several years of precipitation, as well as the blessing of the New Deal, the Ming Dynasty finances returned to the pre-liberation period almost overnight.

Liu Yan looked at the official document sent by Yue Ming, the secretary of the Ministry of Finance, and couldn't help but sigh that the silver was not enough to spend.

Later generations said that the cannon sounded ten thousand taels of gold, this statement is also very appropriate at the moment, hundreds of thousands of Ming soldiers, 10,000 thousands of artillery, it only took more than two months before and after, has spent tens of millions of silver coins, millions of stone grain.

In addition to military salaries, military equipment and other expenses, there are also wartime consumption, people's expenses, etc., Liu Yan can be regarded as experiencing what it is like to spend money like flowing water this time.

But at this time, Liu Yan couldn't stop, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was destroyed, and the grassland was now out of a power vacuum, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and Liu Yan must not let go of this opportunity.

At present, not only can the division return to the DPRK as soon as possible, but also troops must be sent to rush into the grassland, including the entire Mongolian steppe into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and creating a vast strategic buffer zone for the north.

This will cost a lot of money!

At this time, Liu Yan frowned, and began to think, where can I get some money and food back?
