Mao Wenlong made contributions in his early years, and Tianqi gave Shang Fang a sword and was also granted the title of Left Governor.

The left governor is the highest military general under the title of nobles.

However, Mao Wenlong's success is inseparable from Yuan Keli.

It is said that Yuan Keli is Mao Wenlong's benefactor.

During the Tianqi period, Mao Wenlong was very active in the Liaodong area and made some contributions.

But Dongjiang Town was definitely not what some people say, Mao Wenlong was founded by 200 people with hard work.

Dongjiang Town is under the jurisdiction of Denglai. Yuan Keli is the governor of Denglai and Mao Wenlong's serious boss.

In the court at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were a large number of civil servants who were ignorant of military affairs who liked to find a sense of existence and fought each other to the death.

In short, it is to stand in the court and control the front remotely.

Amidst huge controversy, the strategy has changed again and again.

However, there are two people who are indeed very stable in military terms.

One is Sun Chengzong.

Old Man Sun’s Guanningjin defense line was scolded by many people in later generations as a useless defense line, which was very one-sided.

Based on the overall strategic situation, Jiannu was only in Liaodong during the Tianqi period. Although the relationship between Mongolia and the Ming Dynasty was not as good as before, it was at least absolutely hostile to Jiannu.

The so-called enemy's enemy is a friend. Lin Danhan must at least fight the Nurha Chicken to death.

Then, the Xuanda defense line is definitely very safe because of the powerful barrier of Mongolia.

However, after Chongzhen came to power in history, he became accused of evil with Mongolia and killed the envoy sent by Lin Dankhan.

Lin Danhan started fighting with the Ming Dynasty, and both sides suffered losses. Huang Taiji then went west to Mongolia in the first year of Chongzhen, and pushed Lin Danhan to the ground and rubbed him back and forth.

The situation in the northern grassland has changed drastically.

This series of changes has changed the pattern between the three parties.

It seems to have nothing to do with Liaodong, but in fact it has a great impact on Liaodong.

Because from then on, Jiannu's strategic core goal was to conquer Mongolia and to be impressed by the way.

Since this is the case, Huang Taiji had no intention of forcibly attacking the Guanning Jin defense line. At most, he would send troops to restrict the Guanning army from casting the city in Daling River, which would pose a strategic danger to Guangning.

In other words, Huang Taiji later did not intend to leave Shanhaiguan at all, and only took defensive measures in Liaodong to prevent the gradual encroachment of the Ming army.

The main routes for active attack are Xuanfu and Miyun areas.

Where is the location of the Mongolian Duoyan tribe?

Just north of Xuanfu and Miyun.

Before Mongolia was conquered, Jiannu could only find ways to chew on the Guanningjin defense line.

Therefore, it was not that Old Man Sun had a problem with his strategy, but that the emperor had tricked him into messing up the whole game.

As the entire pattern changed, the role of Guanningjin's defense line was greatly weakened.

The second reliable strategic talent is Yuan Keli.

Yuan Keli knew very well that if he wanted to regain Liaodong, he could not just think of Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan.

The strategy of erosion between Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan originated from the Northern Song Dynasty's every step towards the Western Xia.

This strategy almost caused the Northern Song Dynasty to destroy the Western Xia country.

In the late Northern Song Dynasty, Zhang Zhifu made a surprise attack, almost causing Xixia to collapse. If it weren't for the Jingkang shame, Xixia would definitely be killed by the Northern Song Dynasty.

Therefore, this erosion strategy is the best strategy for a large resource country to fight a small country with scarce resources.

However, the terrain of Liaodong is quite special, and the western Liaoning Corridor is a narrow long line.

At the end of the Liaoxi Corridor is Jinzhou. The Ming army must leave the Liaoxi Corridor before the terrain becomes wide.

This kind of terrain is very beneficial to Jiannu.

Even the Ming army could not take a detour to support the situation.

Moreover, Jiannu could suppress all his superior forces in the Jinzhou area, blocking the exit of the western Liaoning Corridor.

What is Yuan Chonghuan's tactics?

In Daling River, it is a stable and stable city. The terrain is pulled apart. Once the terrain is pulled apart, it can prevent Huang Taiji from surrounding the points and supporting the support.

Unfortunately, this tactic was interrupted.

However, even without interruption, Yuan Chonghuan was very tired from fighting.

If Yuan Keli had not resigned during the Tianqi period, the Liaodong Peninsula would still be there, and it might be a completely different situation in Liaodong.

Why do you say so?

This highlights Yuan Keli’s strategic policy.

He advocated the recovery of Fuzhou (Dalian) area and the establishment of Qianshaojun Town there.

And he also implemented it with practical actions.

He instigated Liu Xingzuo, reused Mao Wenlong, established Dongjiang Town, trained the navy, recaptured the Liaodong Peninsula, formed a military force on the Liaodong Peninsula, formed a double-sided momentum with the Liaoxi Corridor, and opened the Jiannu's front line.

If Yuan Keli had been there all the time, Yuan Chonghuan might have been under much less pressure.

Then how did Yuan Keli go?

First of all, Yuan Keli fully supported Mao Wenlong. Although he knew that Mao Wenlong was rebellious, did not obey the order, and falsely reported his military achievements, he still fully supported him.

Later, Yuan Keli left because Yuan Keli fully supported Mao Wenlong and was attacked by most people in the court.

What the hell is going on?

Mao Wenlong said that he had killed more than 20,000 Eight Banners in Manpu and Changcheng, and sent Zhang Pan to attack Jinzhou, falsely reported his military achievements, saying that Jinzhou had been defeated and demanded rewards and military pay.

But Shen Yourong said that he did not fight, but was defeated by Jiannu, and Jinzhou City had been burned down.

Yuan Keli knew that Mao Wenlong had falsely reported it, but he still asked the court to send rewards and military salaries.

Why?

Could it be that Yuan Keli was thrusting his brain?

Of course not. Only here can we fully realize that Yuan Keli is aware of military affairs.

He knew that the court was defeated every year, and that some ministers in the court had no moral integrity, so embezzling military pay became the norm.

The Liaodong Peninsula has just been defeated and requires a lot of military pay support.

It also requires morale, so at this point, Yuan Keli still stared at the huge pressure and submitted a memorial to the Apocalypse.

The memorial (recorded in the "Records of Emperor Xizong of Ming Dynasty") means that Mao Wenlong said that killing more than 20,000 Jiannu and regaining Jinzhou were all false reports, which was unreliable, but Mao Wenlong harassed Jiannu from the rear, but he still made contributions.

So Tianqi gave Mao Wenlong some rewards.

But it was because of this incident that the court officials were caught and attacked Yuan Keli, and Yuan Keli was besieged in the court.

As a result, at this time, Mao Wenlong wrote a letter to blame Yuan Keli for not reporting his military achievements.

Mr. Yuan was criticized on both sides, and there was no way out, so he had to resign and go home.

As soon as Yuan Keli left, Mao Wenlong lost the shield and basically wanted military pay in the future, which was even more difficult.

Time traveler Chongzhen thought to himself that in fact, the situation against Jiannu in the late Ming Dynasty was really not bad. Even if Guangning was lost, there were still many opportunities, but in the party struggle, the capable people left the stage sadly.

There is no strategy, and the court does not have a big national strategy.

Everyone has no direction, everyone thinks they are right and tear each other.

In contrast, Huang Taiji was slightly inferior to Nurhaci's military, but he was the second most political method in this era, and everyone dared to be the first.

Moreover, after Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne, Jiannu began to formulate a series of national strategies.

For example, we will make every effort to conquer Mongolia, suppress North Korea, ease ethnic conflicts in Liaodong, eliminate the power of the eight belles one by one, set up a six-department system to centralize power, and win over the Han people.

They are all made by Huang Taiji.

But it was not in the Ming Dynasty, and everyone was like ants on a hot pan.

This is something that the emperor himself needs to do, and others cannot do it.

The highest national strategy must be decided by the top leader himself. How can others obey the strategy set by others?

Time traveler Chongzhen has actually decided on the strategy for the entire Ming Dynasty in the next thirty years.

But he has nothing yet, so there is no need to tell everyone.

When there is a soldier, let’s talk about it, it’s not about discussing with the ministers, but about the fairy tale and everyone will execute it.

Yuan Keli is one of his strategies, a link in Jiannu’s military strategy.
