Why do you say this? Because Zhu Cilang wants to do a big thing. This matter may anger the dragon beard and cause great trouble to Zhu Cilang.

But Zhu Cixuan still wanted to do this, that is, to rehabilitate Mao Wenlong and Yuan Chonghuan. Right and wrong, merit and demerit must be given a fair reputation.

Whether it is Yuan Chonghuan or Mao Wenlong, they should be punished for their injustice. Yuan Chonghuan was given to him by Emperor Chongzhen. To be honest, Chongzhen did this matter too ruthlessly. Of course, on the one hand, Yuan Chonghuan was blamed for himself.

Chongzhen, who had just ascended the throne, was eager to show his civil and military achievements after he settled Eunuch Wei. The Liaodong issue that troubled the Ming Shenzong, Ming Guangzong and Ming Xizong became a good focus. The man who created two miracles in Ningyuan immediately came to Emperor Chongzhen's mind. He firmly believed that the reason why Yuan Chonghuan did not achieve greater success was all due to his brother's incompetence. As long as he supported himself, Yuan Chonghuan would definitely help him solve the Liaodong issue.

So Yuan Chonghuan, who resigned at home, was immediately summoned to the capital, and was heartbroken. Yuan Chonghuan was so grateful. In order to repay His Majesty's holy grace, Yuan Chonghuan threw out the "Planning for five years to be restored to Liao" in order to repay His Majesty's holy grace.

Before going to Liaodong, Yuan Chonghuan went to visit Xiong Tingbi at the family to be punished. In Xiong Tingbi's view, this was just another cannon fodder sent to Liaodong by the court.

After the greetings, Xiong Tingbi directly got to the point, "How are you going to deal with the matter in Liaodong?" Yuan Chonghuan said four words, "Main guard, and later fight." When he heard these four words, Xiong Tingbi was excited. He really underestimated this person, and this person found a real way to win.

In fact, Yuan Chonghuan's strategy of defending and then fighting was correct. The problem is that Emperor Chongzhen regarded the five-year pacification of Liao as the promise of Governor Yuan. Yuan Chonghuan's meaning was just to comfort Chongzhen.

Yuan Chonghuan made a series of requests, including food, equipment, employment, dispatch of troops, selection of generals, etc. The court should cooperate fully and not make any mistakes. Basically, he would respond to all requests and not neglect at all. Chongzhen agreed, and looked at this spirit, and inexplicably believed in his heart, and some ministers also believed it.

When the Later Jin Dynasty captured the Ming Dynasty's cities, they often followed the inner support, and then slaughtered the city. Mao Wenlong's Pidao Army "replaced the man in Sarhu."

Sarhu City is located in the rear of the Later Jin Dynasty, and is an important town for storing grain and grass. Mao Wenlong sent Geng Zhongming, Qu Chengen and others to rush for thousands of miles, hiding during the day and leaving at night, and arrived at Sarhu School to enter the city. He cooperated with Liu Xingzuo's brothers Liu Xingxian, Liu Xingzhi and others to break through the city. After Geng Zhongming entered the city, he returned to the army victoriously after "beheading 3,000 ranks and capturing 69 people."

After Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, at this time, Pidao and Dongjiang Town finally became a truly uncontrollable place, and Xiong Tingbi and Sun Chengzong's three-sided siege tactics also announced a complete failure.

History has been smeared too much, let alone the Qing Dynasty and its products in the Daxing Literary Inquisition. In terms of history and results, in fact, for the Ming Dynasty, we do not care whether Mao Wenlong is a good person or a bad person or a scum, but rather that he comforted hundreds of thousands of refugees and severely hit the Later Jin Dynasty. After he was killed, all this was gone.

The same is true for Yuan Chonghuan, but after Mao Wenlong was killed, the last straw that crushed the Ming Dynasty to death, just like the domino effect, finally came.

In fact, if Zhu Cilang had traveled through the road earlier, it would not be difficult to pacify Liao in five years. Successfully pacifying Liao in five years was first composed of three major elements. First, the military farms and bunkers with thick walls and heavy artillery were scattered across Liaodong, as a tight line of defense and basic combat unit to resist the Later Jin Dynasty.

The second is to gradually erode the land occupied by the Later Jin Dynasty, and to occupy a large number of military farms and bunkers to be built as a bridgehead to resist the Later Jin Dynasty and nails placed on the land in Liaodong.

The three villages took over the people and won over the other Jurchen tribes and the Later Jin tribes. The best result was that the Later Jin was forced to surrender voluntarily and Liaodong was recovered.

This is a complete struggle to consume both sides' national strength, and it depends on who will last until the end. The Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, a territory of tens of thousands of miles, and its rule has 100 trillion people, and its talents and resources are a hundred times stronger than that of the Later Jin Dynasty. The court made up its mind to spend a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources, and it is not impossible to pacify Liao in five years.

The problem is that the Ming Dynasty is so bad. If there are talents like Eunuch Wei, although Wei Zhongxian is not a good person, at least he can dispatch troops and generals with all his might. Emperor Chongzhen was obviously a big shortcoming.

To be fair, Wei Zhongxian gathered 150,000 troops of the Ming Empire in Ningjin for the first time, which can be said to be the upper limit of this empire's ability.

The past historical regrets cannot be repeated. What Zhu Cilang can do is just thinking that things are what he should have been.

First of all, Mao Wenlong should be rehabilitated. Not to mention anything else, it is enough to resist the Later Jin Dynasty.

As for Yuan Chonghuan, it was just a mixed reputation. But he could not deny his achievements, especially the resistance measures taken by Yuan Chonghuan against the Later Jin Dynasty. When Huang Taiji bypassed Shanhaiguan and entered Beijing, Yuan Chonghuan could not take the blame for this matter.

The ministers in the court will definitely have someone to say about the five-year pacification of Liao. Although Yuan Chonghuan could not do the five-year pacification of Liao, he was killed by Emperor Chongzhen in the third year of the slogan.

In other words, this may not be valid.

The biggest problem is that at this time the public opinion had completely turned to the court, and everyone thought that Yuan Chonghuan was a traitor and a lackey. Even when Yuan Chonghuan was slacked off, the people in the capital were scrambling to eat their meat.

Public opinion has caused Yuan Chonghuan to be so guilty. If Zhu Cilang rehabilitated him again at this time, the pressure can be imagined.

What’s bad is whether Yuan Chonghuan is worth rehabilitation for him? Zhu Cixuan believes that it is worth it.

When evaluating a historical figure, you cannot only see his past. For example, Hong Chengchou and Luo Yangxing, who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. At this time, weren’t they still serving in the court?

Hong Chengchou was still the governor of Ji Liao, and Luo Yangxing was also the commander of the Jinyiwei. Wu Sangui was still his general in Liaodong. Zhu Cixuan did not replace him.

But these people really have their ability. The demise of the Ming Dynasty was a comprehensive result of multiple factors. It is impossible to impose the reason for the demise on them.

Emperor Chongzhen got angry in the court and issued an order to continue to investigate the smuggling case of silver mine in Dingxing County. Zhu Cixuan knelt in the Qianqing Palace and boldly told him about the rehabilitation of Yuan Chonghuan and Mao Wenlong.
