The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

Chapter 162: The Supervisor's Experience of Night Talk in the Study

   Yan Changwu went to see Yuan Chonghuan when it was late (19:00 to 21:00). When I saw him, Yuan Chonghuan saw him in the study room. No one was seen that night.

   Yuan Chonghuan was in the army and had to make a wooden face all day long, but meeting Yan Changwu was very different, and it was like a spring breeze.

He was from Dongguan on Guangnan East Road, while Yan Changwu was from Haicheng, Fujian. In fact, he was looked down upon by Jiangnan and Beijing officials. Yuan Chonghuan was called "Yuan Manzi" by officials behind him. Mei, although he changed his evil to the righteous (in name), he was actually a small pirate, and the officialdom never gave such a good wink.

   Yes, you are rich and powerful, but we are from a good background!

   Others look down on Yuan Chonghuan, and Yuan Chonghuan also looks down on them, but they are the same as Yan Changwu.

Moreover, when Yan Changwu was less than twenty years old, he ruled the Taiwan Guardian, governed hundreds of thousands of people, had half a hundred splint ships, had tens of thousands of troops, and had millions of wealth. He broke the Fujian navy, succeeded in whitewashing, and became a second-grade high-ranking official. He speaks.

   The three imperial generals' seals of General Yan Chang were taken out, and they were genuine, which really surprised Yuan Chonghuan.

   This class should not be offended easily, he is too young!

  The future world is his!

   He sent another big gift, Xie Ning Yuan's army was in a hurry, and his attitude was humble, and he kept working for the country, a good young man!

   Better than many court officials, duplicity, how much support did they give to Ning Yuan's army? !

   spit, pull the hind legs more than support!

Therefore, Yuan Chonghuan did not offend Yan Changwu for being a little rude: he saw Yuan Chonghuan, who was an imperial minister, not kneeling (he never kneeled, but only to Mazu), and he went out indiscriminately without the imperial order (soldiers could not leave the defense without permission), and Yuan Chonghuan didn’t care about it. .

   Everyone drank tea and chatted, Yan Changwu talked about anecdotes in the southeast, and Yuan Chonghuan also asked Yan Changwu to talk about fighting against the Qing army.

   "In the second year of the Apocalypse (1622), the governor went to the capital to meet his Majesty (Apocalypse)..." Yuan Chonghuan slowly talked about the past. He went to the capital to meet Zhu Youxiao of Mingxi Zong, and Yu Shihou Xun made an extraordinary promotion to the Ministry of War. Soon after, Guangning was captured by the Houjin army, so the court discussed that people should be sent to guard Shanhaiguan. After Yuan Chonghuan learned of it, he went out to check the terrain alone. After returning to the court, Yuan Chonghuan said: "As long as I can give me enough money and food for soldiers, horses, and horses, I can guard Shanhaiguan alone." The minister of the DPRK also praised Yuan Chonghuan for his talents, so he broke Yuan Chonghuan's military preparations and supervised him. The army outside the customs allocated 200,000 yuan in money, and asked it to recruit troops and buy horses to operate Liaodong.

   This is also his original work. People were afraid of late gold at the time, but Yuan Chonghuan dared to go to war, and he should rise in time.

   "Jurchen people are also humans, with one head, two legs and two arms. They die as if they were killed. What are they afraid of!"

In the fifth year of the Apocalypse (1625), Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan made a plan to send generals to occupy Jinzhou, Songshan, Xingshan, Youtun and Da, Xiaolinghe and other places. Two hundred miles of soil.

   In October of the same year, Sun Chengzong was dismissed and Gao Di took his place. Gaodi believed that the outside of the pass would definitely be unstoppable, and ordered all the troops to withdraw from Jinzhou and Youtun. Dutun Tong sentenced Jin Qishu to write to Yuan Chonghuan, saying: "Jinzhou, Youtun, and Daling are all important forward locations. If the troops are withdrawn , The people who have settled down will be relocated again, and the reclaimed territory will fall again. How many times can they withstand the retreat inside and outside the customs?"

Yuan Chonghuan also argued to Gaudi: "The art of war says that if there is advancement but no retreat, how can the reclaimed territory be easily abandoned? Jinzhou and Youtun will be shaken, and Ningyuan will be difficult to protect, and the closure of the gate will lose its security. These places only need to send good generals. Guard, you don’t need to worry too much."

But Gaudi insisted on retreating and wanted to withdraw Ningyuan’s army, but Yuan Chonghuan said he would rather die in Ningyuan than to evacuate. Gaudi could not force Yuan Chonghuan, so he evacuated all the soldiers and civilians in Jinzhou and other places, discarding more than 100,000 rice. There were a lot of people who died on the migrating road, and the cries were violent, and the army and the people complained.

  ……

Speaking of this past event, Yuan Chonghuan said with great pain: "The "Six Kingdoms" is clearly stated, the destruction of the Six Kingdoms, non-soldiers, poor warfare, and the evil lies in bribing Qin, using land as an enemy, helping Jurchen, and bribing Qin He. different?"

   Yan Changwu listened quietly, his face was also painful.

   Yuan Chonghuan smiled mockingly and said: "Jurchen is called invincible, the governor defends the strong city, and the city resists. See how many tens of thousands they can have. As long as they are dissatisfied, how can they break my Da Ming!"

   "But Chang Wu, do you know how many of the Jurchens are Han?!"

He said angrily: "The enemy chiefs entered the west of Liaoning, and a large number of Han people became slaves. They plowed their fields and planted food for military use. Jurchen also organized Han military households from it. Every 20 Han people sent out a soldier, and they used Han military households for consumption on the battlefield. We are The Hans beat the Hans, but the Jurchens did not lose much!"

   "The Jurchens attacked the city and bought more internal responses. If we can unite in one mind, Jurchens are also human beings. This governor will let them come and go!" Yuan Chonghuan was so angry that he patted the table and said.

   "Again, be afraid of war, you will be restricted from left to right!" Yan Changwu interrupted.

   "Exactly!" Yuan Chonghuan patted the stage again.

   The enemy here is trying to grab people and land, and there is trouble with his own people. This is a difficult battle!

Speaking of the first month of the sixth year of the Apocalypse (1626), Nurhaci learned that Sun Chengzong was deposed, so he led his army to cross the Liaohe River west. On the 23rd, the Jin Army arrived in Ningyuan, after passing by Gaodi and General Yang Lin, he was heavily armed at Shanhaiguan. Not to rescue Ning Yuan.

   After Yuan Chonghuan learned of it, he immediately wrote a blood book, with the generals Mangui, the lieutenants Zuo Fu, Zhu Mei, and the general ancestors' birthday, defending He Kegang and other soldiers to pledge to defend the city. On the one hand, Yuan Chonghuan stood firm on the wall and cleared the country, while asking Tongzhi Cheng Weimei to interrogate the spies, convicted Jin Qiyu to guard the grain and grass, and passed on to the former guard general Zhao Lijiao and the guard general Yang Qi. If there are soldiers who fled here, they can all be beheaded.

   With the spirit of a decisive battle, in this battle, the Ning Yuan Army repelled Nurhachi by shelling, which is a great victory for Ning Yuan.

  The old wild boar skin hangs! Regardless of the real cause of his death, in order to boost morale, the Ming people said that he was killed in a gun in Ningyuan City ~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ to publicize and achieve the fame of Old Yuan I.

  ……

While talking about it, Yuan Chonghuan said: "Although the corruption of Liaodong is due to the instability of the people's hearts, but also because of the loss of tangible dangers, there is nothing to strengthen the people's hearts. The troops are not conducive to field battles. The only method is to rely on strong walls and the use of cannons. Now the four cities in Shanhaiguan have been restored, and Songshan Zhucheng should be rebuilt. There are 40,000 troops in rotation, and none of them are indispensable."

   The Emperor Tianqi agreed to his request.

Then there is the "Ning Jin Victory". Yuan Chonghuan defeated the Jurchens in Ningyuan and Jinzhou. Speaking of that battle, Yuan Chonghuan said that he was very proud. He wore nine layers of armor to supervise the battle on the wall of Ningyuan. The enemy shot him into a hedgehog. After one point count, there were as many as 127 arrows that were dialed out!

  ……

   Yan Changwu's expression was a little weird after listening to him.

Because he knew that Yuan Chonghuan’s brilliant achievements were produced under the leadership of a strange combination of the emperor Wei Zhongxian and the emperor Wei Zhongxian (the two were scolded **** by the Donglin party), and they were called by the Donglin party " The Emperor Chongzhen of "Holy King", after Yuan Chonghuan broke the Jurchen outside the city of Beiping, cut Yuan Chonghuan with a thousand swords...

  ……

"With your musket from Changwu, if you can form an army, why not be afraid of the Jurchen Cavalry!" Talking about muskets, Yuan Chonghuan heard Yan Changwu's three-stage attack introduction, and knew the power of the Southeast muskets, which can break armor with 50 steps. Large-scale equipment!

"Otherwise!" Yan Changwu shook his head and said, "Master Supervisor should know the use of cavalry. It is helpless to siege the city, and it is useless to break the strong formation. Are you entering the Kou Longjing Pass, Da'ankou and Hongshan Pass?!"

   He said this, his eyes burning, and he stared at Yuan Chonghuan!
