"Xiong Manzi, you are a bastard! You are ruining our strategy!"

Yuan Yingtai gritted his teeth and pointed at Xiong Tingbi and shouted loudly.

Then, he glared at Xiong Tingbi like a resentful woman, and turned around and left helplessly.

But he would never know that Xiong Tingbi actually saved his life.

Otherwise, according to the original history, he would have to commit suicide because he lost Liaoyang and Shenyang in a row and compensated many elite troops in the Ming Dynasty.

Xiong Tingbi looked at his back and said nothing, but continued to devote himself to the cause he was responsible for.

Thanks to Zhu Youxiao's support, Xiong Tingbi was able to act cheaper in Liaodong and no longer had to worry about being stuck in money and food.

This day.

Xiong Tingbi specially summoned all the soldiers in Liaoyang, and distributed the 500,000 treasury treasury owed to Liaodong and the rewards for the rewards for repelling the Donglu in October last year.

Xiong Tingbi said to these soldiers: "You must remember that these silvers are given to you by Your Majesty! You are fighting for Your Majesty! Making meritorious service for yourself and bringing glory to your family!"

"Long live your Majesty!"

Xiong Tingbi said that and started shouting loudly.

"Long live your Majesty!"

"Long live your Majesty!"

"Long live your Majesty!"

...

The soldiers present shouted loudly.

Each of them had smiles on his face.

Usually the concept of His Majesty the Emperor is too far away for them.

Even because many civil officials intend to reduce the control of the imperial power over the lower-level soldiers, they basically do not mention the emperor very much.

But now, because Xiong Tingbi took the initiative to mention it, and when paying the silver and rewarding silver, he took the initiative to say that it was given to them by His Majesty, and he also took the initiative to say that they were fighting for His Majesty, and he made contributions to his family and brought glory to his family

In addition, after the white money was given to the soldiers, the soldiers could indeed feel the benefits of loyalty to His Majesty and fighting for His Majesty.

Therefore, the soldiers present began to gradually feel glorious as if they were eating imperial grain.

The reason why Xiong Tingbi took the initiative to mention His Majesty the Emperor and intended to strengthen the emperor's position in the minds of the soldiers was because he now knew that only His Majesty the Emperor supported him in the world, and he had to strengthen His Majesty the Emperor's position among the soldiers, so that he could consolidate his prestige in Liaodong.

In addition, Emperor Zhu Youxiao also sent Jinyiwei beside him, and he did not dare to win over the morale of the army and control the civil and military officials in Liaodong in his own name.

After Yuan Keli learned that he had become the governor of Liaodong, he immediately decided to take office.

Along the way, we kept working hard.

After Yuan Keli arrived in Liaodong, he immediately said to Xiong Tingbi: "The ministry and the officials are also serving as border ministers for the first time. They don't understand the border affairs very well. I hope the ministry and the ministry will give me more advice in the future."

"Yuan Fuchen does not have to be humble. Yuan Fuchen must have his own unique insights on Liao affairs, otherwise His Majesty would not be able to give him any advice, so he would also like to ask Yuan Fuchen to give him advice."

Xiong Tingbi replied with a smile, with a hint of politeness.

Yuan Keli bowed and said, "Then Yuan is taking the blame. In Yuan's opinion, it is a good idea to defend the army first and then fight. After all, our army has local troops, and there are also regional troops in the guest troops. It is easy to fight each other and it is difficult to cooperate and support each other. Defense is indeed the best way to defend, but Yuan believes that it can be supplemented by attacks in the defense. However, this attack is not to recover lost territory, nor to fight for a city or a fort, but to give the soldiers the opportunity to kill the enemy and earn rewards. Otherwise, if they stay in this city wall, if the Eastern Barbarians do not come, our officers and soldiers will be really lazy and neglect their combat skills."

When Xiong Tingbi heard Yuan Keli say something, he gradually put away his contempt and started nodding frequently. Then he didn't laugh so hard, and laughed directly: "Yuan Fuchen is worthy of being a special person in the emperor! He is much stronger than Yuan Dalai! This statement is very appropriate and coincides with Your Majesty's intentions, and Xiong also agrees with it."

"That's right! It's really awkward to just wait for the Donglu to come and beat us. Those who don't know would think that the last generals are all greedy and afraid of death!"

He Shixian started talking at this time.

All the generals present smiled.

Although they dared not say as openly as Yuan Yingtai that they would send troops to destroy the Eastern Lu immediately to make contributions, they did not like the Emperor and Xiong Tingbi's strategy of defending the city. After all, the current Ming generals are not as afraid of the Eastern Lu as they were in the late history. They only like to hide in the city, but they all like to go out to the city to fight against the Eastern Lu head-on.

Therefore, they agreed quite well when they heard Yuan Keli say that he could attack in the defense.

"Your Majesty's meaning is to use the Donglu to train troops, because the Donglu has accumulated a lot of combat methods and even improved a lot of combat methods in the several battles between the other Jurchen tribes and our Ming army. Therefore, we suffered a great loss in their hands before, and now we also need to use the Donglu to improve our own combat methods. What Yuan Fuchen said is indeed in line with the holy wishes."

Qin Liangyu also started to say with a smile at this time.

Yuan Keli stood up and bowed to Xiong Tingbi with great enthusiasm: "Since that's the case, Yuan asked me to take some of the troops out of the city from the Puhe River to the Donglu settlement area in the Suzi River area. He raided the Donglu along the way. When encountering the Donglu, he withdrew his large troops and horses, and when encountering the small troops, he would fight. If he did not build a city or attack the toughest, even if he was unfortunately wiped out, it would not affect the overall situation."

"I just eliminated a large number of spies in Liaoyang. I guess the Donglu doesn't know about this matter yet. I will definitely launch troops to attack Liaoyang next! You can go from Puhe to the rear of Donglu, which is the best time at the moment, right!"

As he said that, Xiong Tingbi looked at He Shixian and Qin Liangyu and other generals: "Who would like to send troops to Su Zihe with Yuan Fuchen?"

He Shixian and others all stood up to ask for the fight.

After all, the Ming generals at this time still dared to fight.

In the end, Xiong Tingbi ordered the troops of He Shixian and Qin Liangyu to go out of the city with Yuan Keli, while Chen Ce and Hou Shilu and others stayed in Liaoyang, while Tong Zhongkui and others stayed in Shenyang, and agreed to change to others to fight the Donglu next time.

Therefore, Yuan Keli brought He Shixian's cavalry and Qin Liangyu's Baigan infantry out of the Puhe River to the hinterland of Jianzhou.

Nurhaci didn't know about this at this time. At this time, he was coming to Liaoyang and spared Shenyang.

As soon as he saw the Donglu appear outside Liaoyang City, Xiong Tingbi, who had already prepared, did not lead his troops out of the city like Yuan Yingtai in history, and moved his command center outside the city. Instead, he ordered again: "The entire army must not leave the city! Once the Donglu approaches, he will use artillery to attack ten thousand enemies! Put Yuan Yingtai's governor's guard on the city wall and paralyze the slave chief Nurhaci, making them mistakenly think that they still have internal support in the city."

After seeing Yuan Yingtai's ceremonial war, Nurhaci did not realize that something had happened in Liaoyang, so he ordered Li Yongfang with great enthusiasm: "You lead your troops to attack the city and immediately notify the respondents in the city to respond!"

"twitter!"

Li Yongfang replied and led his troops to attack Liaoyang City first.

Li Yongfang's troops were about to start siege on the city with a ladder, but were bombarded by the Ming army's artillery, and many Eastern Captain soldiers were immediately bombarded.

Li Yongfang also sent someone an arrow to inform the insider in the city.

But soon, Li Yongfang found that the city seemed very quiet, and felt something was wrong for a moment, so he hurriedly ran back towards Nurhaci.
