    After Zhao Yingong confirmed that Yuan Chonghuan was already an envoy, Huangshi knew that all his plans had failed. Whether it was against Houjin or the civil servant group, this Juehua battle failed to help Huangshi achieve decisive results.  When Beijing asked for help in danger, the goal Huang Shi set for himself was to severely inflict heavy damage on the Hou Jin army.  He originally estimated that due to Nurhachi's arrogance, the Jin army would probably divide its forces and raid the suburbs of Ningyuan as it did in history.  Huangshi's original plan was to gather the troops at Ningyuan Fort like Yuan Chonghuan in history. When the Jin army divided its forces later, the Dongjiang Army of the 3rd Battalion was the forerunner and the Guanning Army of the 11th Battalion was the backbone to strive for continuous rout battles.  Ning is thousands of miles away from Liaoyang, and the winter is very cold. If the Hou Jin Army is really defeated in Ningyuan, then probably not even one of the Jianzhou Army will be able to return alive. Such a great victory is enough to declare the end of the Liaodong War.  But when Huangshi returned to Changsheng Island, he encountered the first setback: Wu Mu had already transferred half of his troops.  However, the three thousand children of Changsheng Island plus the 11th Battalion of Ningyuan and Juehua's Guan Ning Army. The coalition forces in Liao Town and Dongjiang Town still have nearly 30,000 soldiers. Huang Shi has always believed that the Guan Ning Army can do it if they lack nothing but courage and combat experience.  Make up for it with equipment.  The Hou Jin army on the opposite side only has more than 10,000 armored troops and several thousand Mongolian servants. The Ming army has the advantage of strength and home field fighting. In addition, the arrogant Nurhachi is likely to divide his troops.  Therefore, when setting off from Changsheng Island, Huangshi was still confident and wanted to seize the opportunity to destroy the Hou Jin army in the ice and snow of western Liaoning.  But this dream was ruthlessly broken in Juehua. At that time, Ningyuan Fort had begun martial law, and without Ningyuan's Seventh Battalion Field Army, Huangshi's strength was too weak.  At this time, Huangshi can only hope that Nurhaci will go crazy and die because Huangshi no longer has the strength to take the initiative.  It is also unlikely to defeat the main force of Houjin.  However, during the battle between Juehua and Nurhaci, he refused to cooperate and went crazy. Instead, he abandoned the Mongolian servants and retreated.  Facing the Hou Jin Army whose strength was not greatly damaged, Huang Shi could only watch them leave.  In this case, Huang Shi can only retreat and do the next best thing, which is to prevent Yuan Chonghuan's promotion.  Now a military general, Huang Shi was extremely reluctant to have Yuan Chonghuan have the opportunity to patrol Liaodong because Huang Shi believed that Yuan Chonghuan looked down on military men in his heart.  Moreover, Yuan Chonghuan was relatively barbaric. To him, the court's laws were just scraps of paper, just to be torn up and played with.  After the Tang Dynasty, if the emperor wanted to kill a second-rank official, he would usually issue an edict to punish the crime.  This has been especially true since the Ming Dynasty. As the founding emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang also adhered to formalism. When killing Lan Yu, he had to make up charges and go through the entire procedure honestly.  With Huangshi's current official rank, even the emperor no longer has the right to push him out of the Meridian Gate and behead him.  However, Huang Shi knew that Yuan Chonghuan could not judge this man as simple and crude when he killed the general with common sense.  More courageous than Zhu Hongwu.  Yuan Chonghuan is the only person in China for thousands of years, including the emperors of the Han, Tang, Song and Ming dynasties, who dared to directly push out a first-class military general and kill him without going through any procedures.  Huang Shi had to admit that this kind of courage that surpassed previous emperors and this kind of domineering aura between heaven and earth gave him a huge sense of intimidation.  Yu Zihuangshi knew that he would still be a martial artist for just one day.  That is, having a larger official rank is of no use in front of Yuan Chonghuan.  Although it shows that the last article regards warriors as slaves.  But it is too exaggerated to "kill a warrior like a dog" like Yuan Chonghuan, so for the sake of his own head, Huang Shi hopes that Yuan Chonghuan will never have the opportunity to come to power.  Yu Gong has established a certain prestige in Guan Ning's army through the defensive battle of Juehua and the subsequent pursuit of Huangshi.  Now that Gao Di's prestige has been ruined and the reputation of the general in western Liaoning is in disrepute, as long as there is no strong figure in western Liaoning, there will not be much resistance for him to supervise Liaoxi.  Now Huangshi already has the direct line of Sanying and many collateral lines, plus the human and material resources of Liaoxi.  Huang Shi believes that pacifying Houjin is not far away.  "It's a pity that Huangshi's wishful thinking was easily broken by Zhao Yingong's words. History is still moving on the original track.  The current right minister of the Ministry of War, Yan Mingtai, is a staunch defender of the foreign affairs. Even before the fall of Wang Zaijin, Yan Mingtai advocated building a city in Juehua.  Yan Mingtai thought that Juehua was alone outside the pass.  In normal times, Hou Jin is unable to remove it, but in winter it is easier to concentrate troops to defend Jue Hua.  As long as Juehua is in the hands of the Ming army.  Later, the Jin army could not press Shanhaiguan.  Historically, when faced with Gao Di¡¯s proposal to withdraw, Yan Mingtai insisted on holding on to Ningyuan Fort, and the imperial court finally adopted Yan Mingtai¡¯s strategy and promoted Yuan Chonghuan to the rank of inspector according to Yan Mingtai¡¯s proposal in order to unify the command of the 15th Battalion of the Ningyuan Sanxie.  Now Yuan Chonghuan is only one step away from the governor.  Huang Shi knew in advance that the faction would be victorious if he stayed outside the pass, and that he would definitely need an official with unified command. So he tried his best to intervene and risked the anger of the cabinet to force it. He controlled the rights of civil servants in the hope that the court would not continue to do so.  Promoted Yuan Chonghuan to the post of inspector.  But after Huangshi left Beijing, the cabinet could not resist the raging protests from the Ministry of War and finally followed their orders.It is hoped that the votes will be drawn up to promote Yuan Chonghuan to the rank of inspector to control the officers and soldiers of the Three Associations of Ningyuan, as in history.  Under the pressure of the civil servant group, Emperor Tianqi finally agreed to this compromise: Yuan Chonghuan and Huang Shi had no control over each other, but they both had the right to command Ningyuan Sanxie.  In the historical battle of Ningyuan, the Liaoxi Ming army only killed more than 200 soldiers. However, this time in the battle of Juehua alone, they killed nearly 200 soldiers. The results of the thirteen levels plus the pursuit have exceeded 2,700 levels.  Now that Yuan Chonghuan has been promoted to Inspector, all the victories outside the customs are due to Yuan Chonghuan's planning.  Huang Shi secretly sighed in his heart. As a military general, he could not get this credit, so Yuan Chonghuan's promotion to governor of Liaodong was already a certainty.  "I understand, I will go with Mr. Zhao to see Mr. Inspector tomorrow morning." Since the plan was ruined, Huang Shi did not dare to neglect. He dared to offend Sun Chengzong but did not dare to offend Yuan Chonghuan.  At this time, Huang Shi had made up his mind to do what Zu Dashou did in history. He would never repeat the mistakes of Man Gui and Mao Wenlong.  "There is also the issue of meritorious service. Tomorrow, Mr. Huang, it is best to give Mr. Inspector an accurate letter." How should the Juehua level be allocated?  There is also the performance of the generals. Logically speaking, Zhao Yingong, a civil servant, should be responsible for this, but he is not present many times, and Zhao Yingong now thinks that he does not understand military affairs at all, so he asked Huang Shi to talk to Yuan Chonghuan himself.  "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for taking care of me." After Zhao Yingong left.  Huangshi summoned Juehua's six generals to discuss the matter.  In the past two days, under the auspices of Huang Shi, the six Guanning Army generals redistributed the results of the defensive battle and the subsequent pursuit battle. All levels were added together.  According to the agreement in advance, 70% of the total victory was Guan Ning's army. This 70% level was divided into nine parts. The three generals Yao Yuxian, Jin Guan and Hu Yining each got two parts, while Zhang Guoqing and the three guerrillas each got two parts.  Get a copy.  Yao Yuxian also gained a lot. In the final pursuit battle, he was given a share of the credit, not to mention that Huang Shi would also add his name to the battle report.  Everyone knew very well that this was a pursuit with civilian witnesses.  Ning Qiandao's civil servants would brag a lot about this pursuit in order to get a share of the credit.  To say that this victory was glorious enough, the largest number of Beibei beheads in a single battle after the Hongzhi Dynasty was more than a thousand. This time Juehua had 2,200 in a single battle, and Jin Shen in pursuit killed more than 400 of them.  Ju level will now also be added to Juehua's single battle.  These days, the six generals of the Guan Ning Army are thinking about the reward afterwards.  When I think of the total number of beheadings of 2,700 in one go.  The brothers were so excited that they couldn't sleep, thinking that they would be promoted to several generals.  After Huang Shi presided over the distribution of the results of the battle, General Yao and several of his colleagues reconciled. They were looking forward to a bright future and there were no enemies or jobs in front of them. Naturally, everyone drank day and night.  People are in high spirits at happy events. Since the pursuit, Jin Guan is now sleeping soundly, eating well, his health has become very good, and his voice has become much louder.  Because they know Yao Yuxian and Jin Guandi¡¯s bad deeds.  Therefore, Huang Shi originally had some opinions about the two of them, but after getting along with each other for a while, Huang Shi's opinions about General Juehua also continued to change.  Jin Guan once said something on the battlefield: "It feels so good to chase people." Although these words were his unintentional words, they deeply touched Huang Shi.  Huang Shi couldn¡¯t help but recall the scene when he first entered the battlefield in Guangning.  At that time, when he faced the murderous Hou Jin army, he had no choice but to flee.  Although the generals like Juehua are timid, although they have a lot of small farmer consciousness, they always want to take advantage of them.  But Huang Shi knew very well that without their cooperation, there would be no victory. Now Huang Shi also classified Yao Shenjiang and others into the set of "saveable objects."  On the New Year's Eve of the fifth year of Tianqi, Zhao Yingong led everyone to worship heaven and earth and the previous emperors of the Ming Dynasty. Then the civil servants went to worship King Wenxuan, and the military officers led the sacrifice to King Yue under the leadership of Huang Shidi.  After Huang Shi finished reciting a satisfactory prayer, he led everyone to burn incense and kowtow to the generals. All the generals were not smiling and their faces were as heavy as water.  At the end of the ceremony, Huang Shi gave a speech and all the generals from Juehua stood behind Huang Shi and waited quietly.  Huang Shi had prepared a manuscript beforehand, but as the solemn sacrificial ceremony progressed, Huang Shi looked at the lifelike sculpture of King Yue in front of him and thought about his ambition and struggle in the past five years. He was so filled with emotion that he completely forgot about his job.  Now that General Yao Shen had resumed his original position, he followed Huang Shi and waited for a long time. Finally he couldn't help but coughed lightly and reminded in a low voice: "Huang Junmen." "Oh." Huang Shi woke up from his meditation.  For a moment, he couldn't remember that his draft had come. He stared blankly at the puppet in front of him.  ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: A warrior, his father was lost when he was young, his mother and son were in poverty, he was born in a humble family, and he was walking in the army. But such a person can leave a reputation for eternity and enjoy the admiration of the world, making the emperor eclipse and making the heroes sad.  King Yue sat there quietly, staring at Huangshi, an ordinary wood carving, with his eyes motionless.A power that made Huang Shi feel suffocated came through.  ¡ª¡ªI am lucky enough to be able to travel to the era of the late Ming Dynasty; to be able to survive and become a frontier general who protects my family and country; to be able to pursue Yue Wang Jiwei to protect the Chinese people from the ravages of war.  A strong emotion surged into his heart and Huang Shi blurted out: "A man should be like this!" Then he drank the wine in his hand and solemnly gestured to King Yue, as if he was toasting to his seniors and teachers.  General Guan Ning was silent for a while after hearing this nondescript prayer.  Then there was the sound of gurgling drinking. After finishing his drink, Yao Shenjiang imitated Huang Shi and gestured to the empty bowl. He also assured the King of Yue in a loud voice: "I will be happy like this, man After the worship is over, it is time for a happy banquet."  Although Huang Shi felt that there was too much time for fun recently, Huang Shi felt that Jin Shenjiang and Yao Shenjiang had reconciled because he found that the two guys were secretly exchanging glances.  He saw Yao Shenjiang coming over with a wine bowl, his face full of drunkenness and his eyes hazy as if he was already drunk. Yao Shenjiang chatted with Huang Shi like crazy about women and then asked the question.  Huang Shi personally thought that he was doing things without being aware of it. "Brother Yao joked that his younger brother was very poor and had no means to get married after joining the army in Guangning. Now he doesn't even have a wife or a concubine.  "After Huang Shi cleared his doubts to Yao Shenjiang readily, he consciously lowered his head so as not to affect the communication between Yao Shenjiang, who was completely drunk, and his companions. When Huang Shi lowered his head to drink, he could also imagine Yao Shenjiang and Jin Shenjiang.  His eyes were darting back and forth in the air, and his ears seemed to be able to hear the crackling sparks when the eyes collided. Fortunately, Dongjiang Commander Mao Wenlong was an officer in Liaodong Town and had already returned to Hangzhou to marry his wife.  . But the life-long affairs of ordinary Dongjiang Army officers have always been a difficult problem. Generally speaking, girls with some wealth are not willing to marry into military households, and officers are generally hereditary. However, almost all Dongjiang Army officers are from independent families.  Wu used to be a lowly soldier, so there would be no generals to marry. Moreover, most of the Dongjiang officers who were originally poor military households in Liaodong were unable to get married. Now that their status has improved, most of them have higher requirements for their wives, so they are not willing to hasten with them.  One result is a situation of high and low, and the death rate of women is much higher than that of men during the war in Liaodong. Therefore, the male-female ratio in Dongjiang Town is seriously imbalanced, which also exacerbates the problem of getting married for Dongjiang Lieutenant General Chen Jisheng.  Although he had a high official position, he had been living in Kuandian, so no good woman was willing to marry him. Historically, it was not until Mao Shuai's death that Deputy General Chen made the decision to take Mao Shuai's concubine as his wife.  Another example is Huangshi's sworn brother Kong Youde, who never had the chance to get married because of his poverty. In the original history, Kong Youde was promoted to the rank of general because of his bravery and prowess in battle, but no good woman was willing to marry him until his fourth year.  When he was ten years old, he was still alone. In the fourth year of Chongzhen, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and other Dongjiang officer corps made a rebellion in Dengzhou. Since everyone had committed the crime of beheading, Kong Youde simply took the lead in robbing the official lady to be his wife, and finally joined his men together.  His bachelor career is over. Although Huang Shi has a higher status now, after all, he is not from Liaoxi and is a rich man who has climbed up from a soldier. Besides, Dongjiang Town is poor and has no money, so Huang Shi thinks that General Yao is just here to inquire.  The operation is still far from perfect. However, there is no need to lie about this small issue to avoid letting others think that he is thousands of miles away. When Huang Shi raised his head, General Yao and the others had already completed their visual conversation.  As expected by Huang Shi, Yao Yuxian did not ask further but changed the subject again. On the other hand, Hu Yining, under General Jin Shen, looked relieved, as if he had just left behind some heavy psychological burden.  After a while, Hu Shenjiang went to toast Zhao Yingong with a smile on his face. This was his first time in a few days. On the first day of the sixth year of Tianqi, Juehua drank more wine in Huangshi in the past few days than he had in the past few years combined.  It was a lot more, but he was very restrained last night because he had to pay a visit to Yuan Chonghuan today and must not neglect it. Huang Shi got up very early this morning, but Zhao Yingong was so hungover that he kept waiting when he came out.  Huang Shi apologized for a long time. Huang Shi, who understood this very well, naturally had no complaints. After he freshened up, they went to Ningyuan Fort together.  Yesterday, Huang Shi had already carefully inquired about Yuan Chonghuan's affairs, but on the way, Huang Shi still took the trouble to ask Zhao Yingong.  Zhao Yingong noticed Huang Shi's nervousness and couldn't help but explain kindly: "The inspector has always valued General Huang very much. General Huang has made great contributions in destroying and building captives this time. The inspector must be anxious to see General Huang."Huang Shi smiled and nodded repeatedly: "It's a great honor." As soon as they arrived at the gate of Ningyuan Fort, soldiers flew forward to announce their entry into the city. After Huang Shi followed Zhao Yingong, he went straight to the official office.  When he was about to arrive, Zhao Yingong saw that the middle door of the official office had been opened. He smiled and said to Huang Shi: "It seems that the Inspector is going to come out in person to greet General Huang." Huang Shi was shocked: "How can this be done?" "How can it be prevented?"  Zhao Yingong asked in confusion.  As the Prince's Shaobao, Huang Shi was awarded the Shangfang Sword. Now he has the same status as Yuan Chonghuan. Both of them can control the military affairs outside the customs, but they are not affiliated with each other. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are on separate sides.  As he spoke, he had already arrived outside the gate of the official office. Zhao Yingong dismounted and stood waiting for Huang Shi and Yuan Chonghuan to see Ping Li first, and then he went up to perform the official ceremony.  After dismounting, Huang Shi stepped forward, bowed and raised his hands in a salute: "General Huang Shi will see Mr. Yuan, the envoy of inspection."
