Chapter 260 Definition and Scope of Pingliao

Xiuyan is located in the north of the Liaodong Peninsula, adjacent to Fengcheng in the east and southeast, adjacent to Donggang in the west, adjacent to Dashiqiao City in the west, adjacent to Gaizhou in the south, adjacent to Zhuanghe in the south, and borders Liaoyang County in the north and northwest, and Haicheng in the north.

From a geographical point of view, it is located between the Ming army in southern Liao and Liaodong.

The newly appointed Liaodong governor Yuan Keli chose to convene a military discussion here, which also means that both armies should be equally respectful.

As for the current situation, the Ming army in southern Liaoning confronted Jiannu and Han army in Haizhou Wei, while the Ming army in Liaodong peeked Jianzhou across the Prince River, forming a double-teamed force.

If the Ming army in western Liaoning and Ming and Mongolian coalition were added, the counterattack was an attack from all sides, and the victory of Liaodong was established with a thunderous momentum.

In fact, to lay a victory, it was already destined when Jiannu retreated and subsided. But to truly defeat and wipe out Jiannu, a decisive victory was needed.

Xiuyan Fort was not big, but it was already very vigilant. Not only was the Panshi Association stationed here, but there were also three thousand flying cavalry commanded by Liu Xingzuo, jointly protecting the junction of the two Ming troops and protecting the Liaodong Governor Yuan.

Although the Ming army was stationed in Dabalingguan, Dabalingdun and other fortresses north of Xiuyan Fort, the safety of the Liaodong governor must be foolproof.

Yuan Keli stood on the wall of the fortress, looking at the completed fortifications, with a slight head. Although it was not the front line against the enemy, Panshi Association was not lazy and built the fortifications to be solid.

Xiong Tingbi stood beside Lord Yuan, as if he was not attentive and looked east from time to time.

"Feibai doesn't have to be like this." Yuan Keli saw through Xiong Tingbi's thoughts and said with a smile: "Long live, it has been arranged, but Mao Wenlong was dissatisfied at all. Now he is on the sea boat heading to the capital and will not come to pay homage."

Xiong Tingbi laughed dryly, but he was very helpful in his heart. Long live to favor him between him and Mao Wenlong. If he and Mao Wenlong really have a disagreement, then he is the only one who can stay in Liaodong.

Yuan Keli didn't say much, reached out and patted the city wall, and said in a deep voice: "Although our army's actions strive to keep them confidential, Jiannu still seemed to have noticed something strange. From the intelligence perspective, they are mobilizing? The 15th to 50th flag managers must train in formation."

Xiong Tingbi pondered for a moment and said, "Even so? In terms of strength, our army still has a great advantage. Especially in firearms, it is even more overwhelming."

"If Jiannu lost Liao Dian Shen? Jianzhou's small land would definitely not be able to defend it." Yuan Keli said: "They will most likely flee to the north? Will they completely wipe out it out? But it will not be a temporary achievement."

Xiong Tingbi nodded and said, "Mr. Yuan is very worried. He just doesn't know whether Long Live is for the purpose of pacifying Liao or the restoration of all the jurisdictions of Nuer Gandusi."

Heilongjiang is the largest river in the Northeast region. The Yuan Dynasty officially included it in its territory? It is under the jurisdiction of two provinces, Lingbei and Liaoyang.

The Ming Dynasty established the Nuergandus here? Its banks of Heilongjiang, inside and outside the Xing'an Mountains, east of the Ussuri River to the sea.

At that time, 70 guards and 20 offices were established in Nuergan City. The Ming court used local jurisdictions to allow hereditary areas and granted official seals.

Although Nuergandushi belonged to the Ming Dynasty, his status was not as high as that of prefectures and counties? The Ming court also regarded it as a barbaric land and was a prisoner of Suozhou.

Therefore? In the definition of the Ming court, Liaodong was only a part of Liaoning and Jilin Province in later generations? The actual military trench that was closest to the north was Kuan Dian Liubao.

In this way, Ping Liao's goal will become large or small.

Let’s talk about it in the small way? Recovering the Liaodong area where the Ming court directly sent troops to station troops? It can be called the success of the Liaoning. Let’s talk about it in the big way? Restoring the Nuer Gandu Department and resetting 70 garrisons is the final result.

Yuan Keli frowned slightly at Xiong Tingbi's question, but he was not very clear about it.

"Perhaps it depends on whether the court's financial and material resources can support it." Yuan Keli replied vaguely.

The Ming court gradually lost control of Nuergandusi, and the main reason was that it lacked financial and material resources.

During the Xuande period, Yi Shiha inspected the Nurgandusi for the ninth time, and the items given to the leaders of the various tribes of Nurgan were cloth, silk, utensils, wine and food, which were very rich.

Moreover, because of the difficulty of transportation in ancient times, the most convenient transportation was waterways. The strongholds in the Ming Dynasty could only be established along rivers, and no one could go to places where the waterways were blocked.

For example, Yi Shiha's nine-year inspection in Yongle was to build 25 giant ships on the bank of Songhua River in the southern suburbs of Jilin City today.

Then he led more than a thousand Ming officers and soldiers to ride in a huge boat loaded with cloth, silk, grain and utensils, etc., and sailed in the spring monsoon and floated down the river. He sailed from Songhua River into Heilongjiang, and went down day and night to Nuergan.

It can be seen that maintaining control over Nuer Gandusi was a very expensive task. As a famous internal official in the Ming Dynasty, Yi Shiha was as famous as Zheng He because of several long voyages.

However, during the period of Ren and Xuan sects, the simplest way to deal with the burden on finances caused by the extreme expansion of the Chengzu period was to be contracted.

Give up the Jiaozhicheng proclaimed the Political and Envoy Department; moved to the Nuergandu Department in 30,000 Wei (now Kaiyuan, Liaoning), and its expansion in the northeast was stagnant; the voyage to the West was abolished, but it underwent a great historical regression in the Age of Discovery.

Yuan Keli knew this clearly about pacifying Liaodong.

In his opinion, the emperor is likely to rest and recuperate after pacifying Liao. Restoring Nuergandusi cannot be implemented immediately.

Moreover, the emperor has repeatedly issued orders to require local governors to formulate plans to fight against huge disasters.

Under such circumstances, it is probably unlikely to expand in the Northeast.

Despite this, the Ming army pursued and attacked the fleeing Jiannu and used cavalry to eliminate the roots.

Xiong Tingbi also knew that the imperial court had invested heavily in Liaodong over the past few years, and it would be very difficult to maintain it for a long time. Just as he was about to speak, he saw smoke and dust rising from the road to the east, and he couldn't help but pursed his lips.

Yuan Keli also noticed and smiled and said, "I think it's Mr. Mao who has arrived. You and I will go down the city. Can you welcome me?"

"Mr. Yuan doesn't have to be arrogant." Xiong Tingbi said with great clarity: "It is reasonable for me to go down to pick it up."

"Then I will wait for the two of you in the city." Yuan Keli smiled and turned around and walked towards the city gate tower accompanied by the guards.

Xiong Tingbi tidied up his clothes, stepped down from the city, and under the escort of more than a dozen personal soldiers, he rode out of the city.

If we can unite with Mao Wenlong, Xiong Tingbi still attaches great importance to Mao Wenlong, an old coach who is familiar with the situation in Liaodong.

Of course, if Mao Wenlong is arrogant, he is very angry and not a person to give in.
