More than half a month later, when the letter was sent back from Guangdong, Yuan Chonghuan had already arrived in Huan Zhen's invitation and set off to the north and expected to arrive in Beijing in a month. The news was announced in the world. The old subordinates of the Yuan clan in Liaodong were very grateful to Huan Zhen, claiming that if Yuan Shuai returned to Liaodong, he would be willing to sprinkle blood. Huan Zhen wanted this effect. He would start the battle against Jin in the near future. The best way to inspire morale is to inspire morale. As for whether Yuan Chonghuan would use this to seize his military power, Huan Zhen was not worried about this. For a loyal and straight general like General Yuan, isn't it his best ending to die on the battlefield and betray the horse and the corpse were wrapped around him?

At the end of August, Yuan Chonghuan took office as Senate. Huan Zhen advocated that he would raise the Senate, which was originally only a third-rank, to the second-rank, and to demote the political affairs from the first-rank, Pingzhang, to the second-rank. In the eyes of outsiders, this was his former subordinate of the Yuan family and did not dare to overtake the former head coach, but in Huan Zhen, he was a way of retreating to advance and avoiding his sharp edge.

The day after Yuan Chonghuan took office, about 200 people from all over the country were about to leave the capital quietly and rush to Liaodong. Peng Yu won the Jinshi in the Enke Examination not long ago and was a political affairs officer in the Secretariat. Before Huan Zhen left, he told him that he must take Chongzhen seriously. The Liao soldiers stationed in the capital area had already transferred most of them one after another, and he could control the remaining 8,000 people at any time.

He was about to set off tomorrow morning. That night, Xuexin refused to sleep and couldn't stop talking. Huan Zhen also understood that he would not come back at least next year. He couldn't see his son's birth anyway. He felt apologized in his heart, so he naturally tried his best to accompany her. The two of them lie on the pillow, Huan Zhen wanted to make her happy, and told a joke, "There was a man named Bu Shiren." Xuexin burst out laughing and said, "Not a human?" Huan Zhen laughed and said, "That's right. This is not a human. One day he committed a crime and caught the official and beat the board.

He beat him up in a lot of pain, but he looked up and wanted to ask the master to be kind. Unexpectedly, when he saw this, the curtain under the official seat was lifted up. What do you think the master's hand do underneath?" Haha, he laughed and said, "He crossed his legs and was hooking his feet." Xue Xin spat gently and said, "I'm not afraid of taking this in front of the child." Huan Zhen quickly apologized, "Yes, yes, yes, my wife said, I was wrong." He stretched his head and pressed on Xue's confidant and shouted, "Son, son, can you forgive your father?"

Xue Xin smiled and said, "How do you know it must be a son?" Huan Zhen pretended to be mysterious, "I calculated with my fingers." He said, "I even named the name, and the word "Yi" is the word "Yi". How about it? I hope that in the future, he will not be as sluggish as me, and he will always be more determined and determined." Xue Xin naturally had everything that Huan Zhen decided, but how could he do if he was not ready to have a daughter? I couldn't help asking, "What if it's a daughter?" Huan Zhen yelled and patted his forehead, "I haven't thought about this, why would it be called Xue Xin? Then there are two Xue Xins in my family." Xue Xin pounded him and said angrily: "So unreasonable!" Looking at the top of the tent, he said with great anticipation: "If it's a daughter, it's Hui Niang." Huan Zhen smiled and shouted, "Long live my wife!"

The two of them were talking about gossip, and when they were about to go to the fourth update, Xue Xin finally fell asleep so tired. Huan Zhen got up gently, but felt that the hem of the underwear was pulled by something. He lifted the quilt and saw that she was still holding the corner of her clothes in her sleep. He didn't want to wake her up, so he took off her clothes gently, changed into the long gown she was wearing, and tiptoed to leave. Xue Xin was lying on the bed, still motionless, but when Huan Zhen closed the door, two tears fell down the corner of his eyes.

After a day of the journey, he finally left Shanhaiguan. Along the way, Huan Zhen dispatched troops and dispatched troops to investigate the arrangements in various places, and summoned old generals from all over the country to meet Yuan Chonghuan. Everyone reunited after the disaster, and they were all sighing. Zu Dashou even ignored the respect of the general's general and hugged Yuan Chonghuan and cried. Yuan Chonghuan saw the Liao army's military power today, which was stronger and not weaker than him in Japan. He couldn't help but feel satisfied. He said to Huan Zhen: "Thank you Baili for casting this elite soldier for the Ming Dynasty!" Xuan thought that he was not a person from the Ming Dynasty, so he naturally would not think about the Ming Dynasty. If he were in the past, Yuan Chonghuan would never tolerate it. This kind of thing happened, but since he was falsely imprisoned last year, he had seen through it completely. As Huan Zhen said, dynasties of one surname will always perish. It is meaningless to be obsessed with it. Now, for him, fighting the Tartars is no longer loyal to Zhu Youjian, and naturally it is not for Huan Zhen, but for the whole Liao and even the whole world. Therefore, Huan Zhen unanimously invited him, so he went there happily, one to come up with a part to fulfill his long-cherished wish to destroy the enemy, and the other to take this opportunity to reborn. The battles of the past are different from today's battles.

When he arrived in Yizhou, Cao Wenzhao and Huang Degong received Huan Zhen's notice in advance. In order to prevent the Jin people from finding out, they should not go out of the city to welcome him. The group pretended to be a merchant and quietly entered the city to Yishun Pavilion. Cao and Huang had been waiting for a long time. Huan Zhen exchanged a few casual greetings and asked, "What are the movements of the enemy soldiers recently?" Cao Wenzhao said, "I still urged us to ban smoking. I have banned many Ming Shangshu who sold tobacco in the capture of the enemy in the month. I even detained one person a few days ago. Ambassador Du negotiated several times, but the other party's garrison Dorgon ignored it. The two ambassadors were so angry that they jumped up." Huan Zhen said happily: "Okay, very good!" Cao Wenzhao didn't understand the meaning and said in confusion: "Okay?" Huan Zhen smiled and said, "I want an excuse, so he sent an excuse. How can there be a good grandson in the world who is more obedient than Dorgon?" After thinking about it, he asked, "There are a total of 5,000 Jin soldiers stationed in Jinzhou, and there are no more?" Cao Wenzhao shook his head and said, "No." He also said, "There are more than 50,000 soldiers in Liaoyang, and there are more than 30,000 Shenyang. Huang Taiji is currently in Shenyang."

Huan Zhen pondered: "More than 50,000 people... This is not easy to deal with. We are mixed in the goods, and how many cannon parts are we equipped with successively transported from Juehua Island?" Cao Wenzhao replied: "A total of four artillery battalions can be equipped, and gunpowder is enough to be used. The King of Korea has agreed that once the Mingjin war begins, the Jin people will never be coerced to attack our rear. Moreover, since Zuo Liangyu took office in Dongjiang, the trouble of harassment of North Korea has been greatly reduced. The King of Korea, for the request of Lord Gong, has already allowed us to borrow our army's food for one month, but after the war is decided, 20% of the interest will be returned." Huan Zhen reviewed Yuan Chonghuan and said: "What's the point of paying 20% ​​of the interest? It's just that how to attack Liaoyang is a problem. Should we attack Guangning and take action step by step, or do we accidentally attack Huanglong? Yuan Shuai must have been divided."

Yuan Chonghuan shook his head and said, "It's already autumn. Once it rains, it will be very unfavorable for our army. We must fight quickly. It is best to attack Guangning, Jinzhou and Yizhou together. Guangning and I attack Liaoyang, and Jinzhou take the seaguai north to serve as a support for the horn. Among the three routes, Yizhou should be the main one, and Guangning is the suspicious soldier." Huan Zhen clapped his hands and said, "I think so too. Therefore, I brought most of the light cannons this time, and a horse can be pulled. However, 50,000 people are not a small number. Our army has few horses, so we must prevent the enemy from leaving the city to fight with me in the field." He Kegang smiled and said, "It is precisely for this time that the new army is fully in power. Fubo's army, horses and infantry battles can be used. Last time, he was on Juehua Island.

Um, have you read it with your own eyes?" Yuan Chonghuan said, "It's not bad to be careful. Besides, in order to avoid people's eyes and ears, most of our army are stationed on Pi Island at this moment. It will take at least two days to come to Yizhou. We must prevent the leak of the news and miss the military opportunity." He Kegang nodded and agreed, and said to Huan Zhen: "There is a plan for the humble official position. Let's listen to the rights of the emperor." Huan Zhen asked the left and right to retreat, leaving only Yuan Chonghuan, Huang Degong, Cao Wenzhao and a few others, whispered: "Justower Cao said just now that the king of the court had promised not to help me to make money to copy my retreat, but Hu Jin thought he might as well write a secret letter to him, asking him to pretend to promise to borrow troops, but in fact he didn't really send troops. He only borrowed some Korean flags and the officials of the court to me."

Huan Zhen was overjoyed and lowered his voice: "Then my reinforcements from behind can pretend to be fresh soldiers, and they can come over without knowing it? But it is a good plan. Since that's the case, I asked General He to go to Seoul. If I borrowed a banner and other items, I would go across the sea to Pi Island to arrange it." He Kegang agreed, and stopped a lot and went there by himself.

Yuan Chonghuan and Huan Zhen dared not show up at will. If Dorgon knew that the two big men came to Yizhou at the same time, they would probably infer that the Ming army would have made any moves. But he called Du Huaide and told him to negotiate with Dorgon to return the Ming Shang again for the next few days, and he had to be more arrogant and arrogant every day, so that he would be angry. Dorgon was also young and bloody after all these times. After all, he could not bear it. Unfortunately, every time Du Huaide went, Huang Deguo led his heavy troops to protect him, and he could not do anything. In anger, he ordered the detained merchant to be pushed out and killed, and the head commanded the gate.

Huan Zhen was waiting for this move, and immediately asked Du Huaide to formally protest and ordered martial law in Yizhou to withdraw all the Ming and merchants. Dorgon did not expect that killing a Ming Shang would cause such a big trouble. When his subordinates heard about this, they were not worried, but they were ready to fight with Mingzhu. They thought that if the two countries initiated a quarrel, they would not know what the Khan would be? In short, before the news was sent back to Shenyang, the Ming people would never have the opportunity to start a war. At present, the soldiers were not allowed to provoke first. If the Ming soldiers came to insult, they would just do nothing.

But his constraints seemed useless. On the night of the martial law, a small team of Ming soldiers patrolling near Jinzhang outside the city were cut off from the general manager and skinned and threw them bloodily outside the Ming army camp. The soldiers who were patrolling in the morning saw it and screamed, which alarmed half of the people in the camp to watch. The general's acquaintance recognized it and found a tatar braid cut in the waist in Cui Dayong. He thought that he fought desperately with the tatars when he was dying and cut it with a sword. For a moment, the crowd was in a turbulent mood, and everyone was red and shouted that they wanted to capture Dorgon to peel off the skin and cramps. Some generals named the official couplet and wrote blood letters to ask for battle, and sent them to Yishun Pavilion, but there was no reply for a day. By the evening, the morale of the army had already fluctuated a little.

At the second update, many soldiers were still not sleeping, lying side by side in groups of three or three, whispering about what happened during the day. One said, "Hu Zi, why did Senator Yuan and Lord Huan refuse to let us kill the Tartars?" The man called Hu Zi shook his head and said, "How can I know this? But I followed him since Lord Yuan had just been transferred from Guangdong. He said, "He will not fight, so there will be a reason not to fight. We just wait with peace of mind." A man next to him said coldly: "Mo Are you afraid of death? "Hu Zi said angrily, "Nonsense, be careful not to tear your mouth apart!" He took a breath and said, "Don't say that Dayong is my good friend, even if he doesn't know each other, no one can bear it when he sees the Tartars scattering and peeing on our heads like this. But I believe that Lord Yuan, Governor Huan will definitely breathe this for us." Everyone participated in it, and they said everything. Suddenly, a guard came in and shouted, "Get up, get up, get together urgently!"

Everyone immediately shut up, turned over and got up, and gathered in front of the camp.

Yuan Chonghuan ordered the three armies of Qi and shouted loudly: "The East Barbarians bully me too much. They slaughtered my civilians and harmed my comrades. It is tolerated, but who is unbearable! Last night, the subordinate of the First Battalion of the Fubo Army was unfortunately killed by the enemy soldiers during the night patrol. The body was in front of the crowd! Chonghuan vowed to this place to destroy the Tartars and could not repay the country!" Huan Zhen shouted: "I want to kill into Liaoyang and sacrifice the heroes blood!" He took the first step and raised a corpse with Huang Degong. Yuan Chonghuan and Cao Wenzhao also raised another one, and the following generals and guerrillas were paired up in pairs. Each of them carried a corpse and shouted loudly, "Kill into Liaoyang and sacrifice the heroes blood blood!" He followed Yuan Chonghuan and Huan Zhen and drove away in a mighty manner.

Dorgon was not aware of this matter at all. He heard the news of the Mahjong report in his dream that the army had already come in large numbers. He was shocked and hurriedly ordered the gate to close the gate to resist. However, the morale of the Ming army was so high that it doubled its size from 10,000 to 5,000. Soon, it burned the camp with thunder, forcing the enemy soldiers to rush to fight.

The Ming army was not cheap at all, but this time Huan Zhen dispatched all the caltrops chariots modified from ordinary chariots with iron caltrops in front of ordinary chariots. The soldiers hid in the chariots and fired guns. For a moment, the Tartar soldiers were completely unable to approach. Seeing that the situation was not good, Dorgon became afraid and broke through the siege and retreated northward. He ran to the bank of the Yalu River and encountered several small groups of Ming troops along the way, all of which were defeated. Dorgon was overjoyed and pointed to the wooden bridge on the river and said with a smile: "Huan Zhen is a pig and dog ear! If this bridge is broken, our army will die and will not be buried. He doesn't know, wouldn't it be God bless me?" He immediately rushed across the bridge.

The vanguard walked halfway through the bridge, and suddenly heard a crackling sound of wooden board breaking. The wooden bridge broke into two pieces, and several horses fell into the river, struggling desperately, but finally sank. Dorgon was shocked and hurriedly pulled back. The wooden bridge was narrow and could not retreat for a moment. The people and horses trampled on each other and immediately became in chaos. At this time, the Ming army came from behind and stopped the chariot and fired guns from afar. Dorgon was furious and thought to sit and wait for death, why not burn the boats? He gathered up the remaining soldiers and rode his horse and rushed forward with bullets.

The Ming army could not resist the enemy and pushed the chariot to escape. Dorgon was overjoyed and thought that the Liao soldiers were just flower stands and paper tigers. After his victory in this battle, the Khan must have treated him differently. He immediately rushed to chase him. But he didn't chase him far away. He heard the vanguard's horses neighing and fell down one after another, and the knights fell to the ground. He was shocked and hurriedly ordered the three armies to stop. Soon, people ran back in front to report that when the Ming army withdrew, they sprinkled many iron mushrooms, bamboo storage and other objects on the ground. The iron mushroom cone was placed under the horse's hooves, and they could not be picked out. The bamboo storage was poisoned, and the horse was The horse's hooves were injured and immediately fell down. One horse was overturned, touching the front and the back, and all the horses were covered. However, the Ming soldiers were all wearing iron-soled shoes, not afraid of being injured at all. When they saw the camp of the enemy soldiers was in chaos, they pushed the chariot and killed the generals, and stopped behind a line of defense that had just been set up with iron mushrooms and other objects. Dorgon knew that this battle was a great defeat. It was dark and he dared not to charge the soldiers anymore. He had to rush his troops to the east along the river to try to find the next bridge to cross the river. Fortunately, the Ming army no longer chased him. He fled from the danger and counted the number of people. Half of the five thousand people were lost.

While being frustrated, he sent someone to Liaoyang to report the news. But Liaoyang was also having a great headache at this moment. Guangning Zu Dashou and Jin Guoqi sent troops together. Unexpectedly, they built two cities in succession. Now, both sides are advancing to Haizhou Guards. If Haizhou is lost, Liaoyang is in danger. Dai Shan, who is left behind, dares not be negligent, so he hurriedly ordered Abatai to lead 10,000 troops to rescue. The guard at that place was his eldest son Yue Tuo. He was calm and had a strong general. In addition, after Guangning entered the Ming Dynasty, he always regarded Haizhou as an important town and had no shortage of troops. It would be no problem to think that it would take more than ten days.
