A bloody battle of Hunhe River in which more than 7,000 Ming troops were bloodied failed to turn the tide. Whenever I think of the sea of blood by the Hunhe River, I can't help but let out a long sigh, but time will neither go backwards nor freeze, or move forward slowly. 1626, in the sixth year of Daming apocalypse, in the first month of the eleventh year of Houjin's mandate, Daming and Houjin were in Ningyuan, which is today's Xing, Liaoning.
The battle of Ningyuan took place after the bloody Hunhe River. At that time, under the leadership of Nurhachi, the late Jin forces rose rapidly in Liaodong, constantly attacking Daming, and successively conquered more than 40 castles such as Guangning, making great strides in an attempt to invade Shanhaiguan and Daming. The Apocalypse sent its own teacher, Ji Liao, from Sun Chengzong. Sun Chengzong did a good job and recovered more than 400 miles of lost land, forcing Nuerhachi to retreat 700 miles, but later. Another school advocates the construction of Guanning-Shanxi defense line, with Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan as the representatives.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Sun Chengzong's strategic thinking. If Wang retreats to Shanhaiguan again, he may save money economically. As I said before, war is a matter of money, and the defense line of Guanning-Jin is a giant beast that swallowed gold, but once it retreated to Shanhaiguan, it gave up its strategic depth. Once he can't resist the latter's attack, it will be a direct attack on Beijing.
In terms of arrangement, Sun Chengzong is given priority to with Ma Shilong and strictly abides by Shanhaiguan; Shou Quangui and Yuan Chonghuan were stationed in Ningyuan City; Zu Dashou and Zhao Lvjiao were stationed in Juehua Island and Qiantunwei respectively; At the same time, a large number of indigenous Liao people were also placed in Ningyuan and Qiantun to prepare for the army's food and grass. In fact, these arrangements of Eric provided preparations for Daming to recover the whole Liaodong. In September of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, Lin Dong's side fought with the age of nine again. As a result, he won at the age of nine and Sun Chengzong was dismissed. Gao Di, the minister of war, came to take charge of Liaodong. Gao Di's strategy was to "please retreat and keep the customs", but Yuan Chonghuan resolutely opposed it, but Gao Jing insisted on withdrawing troops. Yuan Chonghuan said, "My office is Ningyuan Road, and I'm going to die here." Can't, the court had to comfort Yuan Chonghuan, after all, he is willing to keep this matter, but also named Yuan Chonghuan as a provincial judge in Shandong Province, and his official rank was upgraded, but his real role was still stronger than before, so Yuan Chonghuan went back to work happily, and then made Yuan Chonghuan famous in Ningyuan.
"Records of the Qing Emperor" records that "the emperor has been invincible since he was twenty-five. But Ningyuan couldn't keep a city, so he returned in a rage. " The Eight Banners Army, known as invincible in the battlefield, can recruit good fighters. Why can't Nurhachi win Ningyuan City?
At that time, the late Jin heard that the Daming border changed coaches, and Sun Chengzong was dismissed. The United States even enjoyed the snot bubble, so it launched an army of 60 thousand and invaded Liaodong again. The enemy arrived at Ningyuan at the gates, and the latter tried Yuan Chonghuan first. According to Manchuria's records, Nurhachi sent captured Han Chinese into the city. "If I attack this city with 200 men, I will break it." If your officials surrender, they will be awarded a high rank. "Yuan Chonghuan answered," why did Khan suddenly add soldiers? Ningjin is the land abandoned by Khan. I have about130 thousand, and I don't treat you as a widow. "
If it's too soft, do it. The next day, Nurhachi concentrated superior forces in the old way, determined the attack range, and ordered cavalry and infantry to start charging. At this time, Yuan Chonghuan flashed a "secret weapon" and eleven red guns. The Ming army skillfully incorporated artillery into Ningyuan's city defense system. Ningyuan's buildings are basically square, and there is a square enemy platform in every corner of the city. It extends out of the city on three sides and is connected with battlements on one side. It puts the cannon on the stage, so it can shoot on three sides. Even if the enemy rushed to the gate, there would be no fire angle if two sets of doors were saved. By using this new tactic, the Ming army completely deprived Ye Ping of its past advantages of Mercedes-Benz and incorrigible.
The latter Jin had never seen such a high-tech thing, and he was shocked after several shots. This fierce struggle lasted for three days and nights. As long as the late Jin stormed, the city was bombarded by extremely fierce artillery fire, and many nomads from the dead and wounded entered the city, so that "thieves' bodies piled up at the gates."
Although the Eight Banners fighters fly like electricity, they are unstoppable. As long as they fight on the battlefield, the Ming army will be defeated. But no matter how good you are, can you shoot through big bricks and boulders? No matter how fast your horse ran, did you rush into that wide wall? So Yuan Chonghuan set the strategy of "Simon" to defend the city. Simply put, it is to leave the wall open. Fight to the death with the city, obviously can't "fight with slave soldiers", can only "die". Nurhachi saw heavy casualties, and if he continued to fight like this, his small family was estimated to be cannon fodder, so he had to order a retreat.
Nurhachi fought all the year round, old and tired, and Ningyuan fell and was injured. He was angry, sad, insomnia, accumulated resentment into a disease, and carbuncle broke out. On July 23, he went to Qinghe to "soak in hot springs for soup". Thirteen days later, Nurhachi was critically ill and planned to return to Shenyang. He sent someone to Shenyang to call Abahai and Dafu, and Abahai hurried to meet him. They met in Hunhe River and then walked back together. However, when he arrived at Fort Ai Ji, 40 miles from Shenyang, Nurhachi died at the age of 68.
Some people say that without Yuan Chonghuan, there would be no "Ningyuan Victory". In fact, there are many factors to win a war. As the chief executive of Ningyuan, Yuan Chonghuan can unite everyone, make "sticking to one's duties" a collective will, and make the upper and lower levels have no thoughts. It is really difficult to do this; Secondly, we can listen to and adopt everyone's opinions, make the right choice, proceed from reality and boldly adopt new tactics; Finally, Mangui was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, with clear responsibilities and rights and guarding the four sides. Therefore, "Ningyuan Victory" is a collective achievement, and it is by no means the work of one person. Yuan Chonghuan, in his position, played a key role. As the saying goes, don't praise for being black.
Actually, calm down. Yuan Chonghuan won the battle of Ningyuan very narrowly. If there is no Nurhachi in the gun, of course, some people say he didn't hit it at all. However, if Houjin continues to fight around Ningyuan, Yuan Chonghuan will probably be wiped out. You see, the granary was robbed, and there was no food in the city for a month, and people were scattered. Of course, Yuan Chonghuan is probably ready before the war. He will never back down himself. He will lie alone in the lonely city and be a traitor. However, if a shot is shot in the late Jin Dynasty, it will change the direction of the war situation at once, and it will be useful and serve the country. However, Ningyuan's victory really inspired the decadent style of losing streak of the Ming army at that time.
In the early days of the late Jin Dynasty, Ningyuan, with a population of more than 200,000 and a population of more than 60,000, was attacked, almost losing about 2% of Ding's total population, which was definitely a "heavy casualty". Later Jin was unable to withstand the heavy casualties of siege and retreated from Ningyuan. As for whether Nurhachi was injured, there is still debate, but the history of Ningyuan's first world war repelling the main force of the latter gold is an indisputable fact, so no matter.
