In the widely circulated historical story, Yuan Chonghuan is a near-perfect hero.
Because in the widely circulated historical stories, the Qing Taizu Nurhaci counted as a Mao, because he was Yuan Chonghuan's defeated general, or was killed by Yuan Chonghuan; of course, Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty was a Mao, because he was also a defeated general under Yuan Chonghuan, and finally he relied on the anti-plot to get rid of Yuan Chonghuan by the hand of Emperor Daming.
Therefore, in the widely circulated historical stories, if the Chongzhen Emperor did not credulously believe in the Manchu Qing's anti-plot, there would be no Manchu Qing!
In fact, Yuan Chonghuan's death and Huang Taiji's counter-plan have nothing to do with it.
If Yuan Chonghuan could block Huang Taiji north of the Great Wall and dare not cross the Great Wall, how could Huang Taiji still use the reverse meter?
If Yuan Chonghuan blocked Huang Taiji in the line of Jimen and never let Huang Taiji approach the imperial capital, how could Huang Taiji still use the reverse meter?
If the Guanning army led by Yuan Chonghuan could engage in a relatively fierce battle with the Manchu Qing army under the city of Beijing, how could Emperor Taiji still use the counter-plan? Because in this context, who believes that the relationship between the Guanning army and the Emperor Taiji is unclear?
The problem was that Huang Taiji had reached the city of Beijing, and Yuan Chonghuan was at a loss for words, and only wanted to retreat from the enemy through peace talks. In this context, is there a counter-plan, and what does Yuan Chonghuan take to explain to the emperor?
The Manchu Qing went deep into the Great Wall for the first time, and the Ming Empire arrested The Soldier Shangshu Wang Qia (who died in prison), killed Liu Ce, the governor of Jiliao, and killed Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Jiliao.
After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the Great Wall for the third time, Liang Tingdong (then the viceroy of Xuanda) and Zhang Fengyi (then bingbu Shangshu) did not even dare to report the illusion of survival, and simply committed suicide.
The Chongzhen Emperor believed in the use of heavy codes in the chaotic world. Since this was the case, it was obviously not surprising that Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Jiliao, was arrested and killed.
Of course, if Yuan Chonghuan's fault, there is only this, it is estimated that he was beheaded.
The problem is, his mistakes, obviously, are much greater than that. So the emperor put him to death, and the people lined up to eat his flesh.
Originally, everyone felt that Inspector Yuan and Emperor Taiji were not clear, and Zu Dashou should lead the Guan Ning army to fight for Yuan's breath. All in all, with practical actions, it is proved to the world that Inspector Yuan and his army are truly loyal and patriotic troops.
The problem is that when the Manchu Qing army plundered around the city of Beijing, Zu Dashou actually led his army to withdraw!
In the face of this result, the emperor naturally hated madness, and the people near Beijing city actually hated it madly.
The emperor's arrest of Yuan Chonghuan did not mean that he would necessarily kill Yuan Chonghuan; the emperor slashed Yuan Chonghuan with a thousand knives, which did not mean that the common people also wanted Yuan Chonghuan to be slashed with a thousand knives.
The problem is that Zu Dashou proved with practical actions that Yuan Chonghuan should be slashed with a thousand knives.
We must know that when Zu Dashou led his army to withdraw, the Manchu Qing army was still plundering near the city of Beijing.
It is no exaggeration to say that whoever is in the position of emperor will not forgive Yuan Chonghuan.
Because in order to support Yuan Chonghuan, the emperor let him adjust the organizational structure and personnel arrangements in the Guanning area at will, and even acquiesced to his unauthorized killing of high-ranking generals.
But the result? He went so far as to have the enemy kill the city of Beijing; more importantly, the emperor pursued his dereliction of duty, and his army was picky at that time. As a result, the Manchu Qing army was still plundering around the city of Beijing, and the Guanning army withdrew without hesitation.
It is no exaggeration to say that who lived in Beijing at that time would not forgive Yuan Chonghuan.
The people of the Empire have always let liao toss to death. The imperial government raised millions of taels of silver a year, all of which were used by the Guanning army. As a result, the enemy actually hit the city of Beijing; more importantly, while the enemy was still wreaking havoc near the city of Beijing, the Guanning army withdrew without hesitation.
It is no exaggeration to say that Yuan Chonghuan's main crime was that he had warlordized the Guanning troops. However, this kind of crime cannot be said casually, because Yuan Chonghuan was convicted of this kind of crime. How to deal with Zu Dashou? You must know that the Ming Empire at that time had lost the ability to deal with Zu Dashou.
In this context, Yuan Chonghuan's repeated attempts to negotiate peace with the Manchu Qing were turned over.
One of the charges against Yuan Chonghuan in the Ming Empire was: "Later, when Bo went down to the city, he sneaked in with the lama and insisted on entering the city."
Some people may wonder how Yuan Chonghuan wanted to bring the lama into the city, but how did it become one of the capital crimes?
The problem is, we must know one thing, Yuan Chonghuan led the army to rescue the city of Beijing, what did he do with the lama? If you were in Yuan Chonghuan's position, would you bring several lamas with you when you rescued the city of Beijing? It is estimated that it will not be, because there is no data to prove that these lamas are martial arts masters.
The answer was obviously that when Yuan Chonghuan led his army to rescue the capital, he planned to solve this military crisis by means of an alliance under the city. Because lamas are usually figures acceptable to all parties, they can act as intermediaries between the parties in the negotiations.
In this sense, Yuan Chonghuan's original plan was to do whatever it took (through peace negotiations if necessary) to maintain the status quo with the Manchu Qing.
As long as he could maintain the status quo and militarize the Guanning army, then whether he could fulfill the great words of the five years of Pingliao, the emperor could not do anything to him. At that time, as long as the emperor dared to hold Yuan Chonghuan responsible, he might let the situation get out of control; at that time, even if the emperor wanted to remove Yuan Chonghuan's power through various means, Yuan Chonghuan could make up some reasons to refuse.
If we understand this meaning, we will naturally understand that Yuan Chonghuan's desire to bring the lama into the city will also become one of his capital crimes.
First, the military commander-in-chief of the front line, behind the back of the central government's repeated attempts to negotiate peace with the enemy, moved to the table, is itself a capital offense.
Second, in the face of this situation, the emperor finally saw the true face of Yuan Chonghuan completely.
Because just by virtue of your performance, you can also be peaceful for five years? I'm so naïve and naïve, that's why I've been fooled by you until now!
You have told me again and again that you plan to pacify the Liao for five years; behind your back, you are thinking about peace with the Manchu Qing every day. What the hell do you want to do? I'm afraid it's just cheating me out of all kinds of power!
In this context, Yuan Chonghuan's crime of killing Mao Wenlong was also turned over.
We must know that Yuan Chonghuan's ability to kill Mao Wenlong is a standard capital offense; although far-fetched to say that Yuan Chonghuan has this power. The problem is that looking at the nearly three hundred years of the history of the Ming Empire, there is no precedent for a military commander to kill a senior general without authorization with the sword of Shangfang.
The emperor later recognized Yuan Chonghuan's behavior as legitimate, and that was a prerequisite. In other words, as long as you can pingliao for five years, I will support you unconditionally!
The problem was that the emperor suddenly found that Yuan Chonghuan's so-called five years of Pingliao had been fooling him; naturally he would turn over the matter of his killing of Mao Wenlong.
Of course, the reason why Mao Wenlong's death will be investigated is far more complicated than this.
Yuan Chonghuan was good at killing Mao Wenlong, which was a legally speaking, absolutely capital offense; Yuan Chonghuan himself admitted to this.
"The situation between the minister and Mao Wenlong was like this, but the Grand Marshal of Wenlong was not the subject of the curse." ..... According to the actual music, Xi Gao is waiting to be punished, but the emperor is axed, the world is right and wrong, and the subject is invincible and fearful." "JiLiao Inspector Inscription Book".
After Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, things were really not pretty; because it directly led to the loss of control of the Dongjiang army.
Although Chonghuan cursed Wenlong, he was worried about the change of his subordinates, and increased the salary to 180,000 silver. However, Benjima lost his manager, and his heart gradually became unavailable, and then there were rebels.
Chonghuan said: "A town in the East River, the capital that must be contained must be controlled." The two associations, the ten battalions of the Horse Army, the five infantry troops, the annual salary of 420,000 silver, and the rice 136,000. "Emperor Po was suspicious of the reduction of soldiers and the increase of salaries, and he was particularly pleased with chonghuan. Excerpt from "Ming Shi Yuan Chonghuan"
In this context, Yuan Chonghuan said in his recital to the emperor: I did this, and I applied to Qian Longxi, the first assistant of the inner head, and Qian Longxi also agreed to do this.
Yuan Chonghuan said that there was really no point in saying this, because Qian Longxi did not have the right to kill Mao Wenlong, and saying that Qian Longxi agreed to do so, just pulled Qian Longxi into the water, which did not prove that he was legal in doing so.
After Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, he could have completely ignored the three words Qian Longxi, but he did, and it was written down in black and white, so that the world knew.
Therefore, when the emperor pursued Mao Wenlong's death, Qian Longxi was also frightened. Because of this sin, truly speaking, it is a capital offense!
Long Xi argued, saying, "... Chonghuan suddenly cursed Wenlong, and there was a phrase "low wandering" in the language. The courtier reads the sin of Wen Longgong, and the court knows it, because it ignores it. Why not use Chonghuan's exaggerated words to sit on the courtiers and friends to plot crimes? "Ming Shi Qian Long Xi"
Where the high-ranking government officials, behind the backs of the supreme leader, conspired with the senior generals to kill the commander of the Duzhen side (whether ancient or modern, whether Chinese or foreign) is also a sensational crime; not to mention that this kind of behavior, in the end, caused great harm to the imperial border defense, which is even more sensational crime!
Is Yuan Chonghuan really friends with Qianlongxi? If friends are used to betray, then Yuan Chonghuan and Qian Longxi are indeed friends.
A person has done something that he considers to be a capital offense; a person who has done a thing and done it in a mess, but says that this is someone supporting me, what kind of mentality do you say?
Many people have no ill will toward Yuan Chonghuan, nor do they have the intention of dying Yuan Chonghuan. But many people want to die to pay longxi, because Qian Longxi is the leader of Donglin.
The style of the Donglin Party has always been that of the non-self-like people; therefore, people who are not of the Donglin clan naturally want to find opportunities to attack the Donglin Party for their own future.
The Donglin Party, represented by Qian Longxi, was hated by political enemies. And Yuan Chonghuan wrote in black and white on the song chapter: He killed Mao Wenlong with qian Longxi's support, so what is this nature of the matter?
As a result, the matter of killing Mao Wenlong was infinitely magnified.
