Anshan Posthouse is located 60 miles southwest of Liaoyang.
It was first built in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty and rebuilt in the Wanli period as a transmission center.
There are many carriages and horses in the post, and merchants are very prosperous.
Of course, this was during the reign of the Ming Dynasty.
This Anshan Posthouse is one mile and two hundred and four steps around, with two gates in the southwest and northeast.
With the east and west Anshan mountains as the screen, the terrain is dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack.
The city wall was built with green bricks on the outside and filled with loess on the inside to prevent bombardment.
Wells were dug in the city to prevent water shortages.
There is a moat around it to prevent sneak attacks.
The small area is impregnable.
The reason why the Anshan Posthouse was built like this is because it is the gateway to southern Liaoning and western Liaoning, guarding the key point of the ancient road in southern Liaoning.
If Liaoyang wants to go to the Ningjin line, it must pass through here.
Today's Anshan Inn is no longer as prosperous as it once was, and business travel has long been cut off.
However, because this place was extremely important, Jianlu also sent troops to garrison it.
In May of the sixth year of Tianqi, a war took place here.
Mao Wenlong led his army to sneak attack on Anshan Station, forcing the slave chief Nurhachi who was on an expedition to Mongolia to return overnight.
On this day, in the afternoon, a faint movement suddenly came from the quiet north of Anshan Inn.
The Jianlu defenders on the top of the Anshan Posthouse were a little surprised.
When they looked carefully, they were shocked.
"Dang, Dang, Dang" the alarm gong sounded immediately, surprising everyone in the castle.
No one made any movement, they just looked up in confusion at the source of the sound in the north of the city.
Why is there a police gong sounding?
Where are the enemies here?
If the gongs are really going to sound, it should be over at the south gate.
But this is impossible.
Mang Gurtai Dabeile is leading the army there.
By the way, a few days ago, Haugebeile also led the army to reinforce.
With the strength of Guan Ning's army, how could they possibly attack Anshan Inn?
Everyone couldn't figure it out, including Babutai, the guard of Anshan Inn.
He immediately shouted loudly: "Go and check, what's going on?"
Babutai, also named Aixinjueluo, was the ninth son of Nurhaci.
Speaking of which, his ability is similar to that of Babu Hai who was just killed.
In the original history, he was stationed in Luanzhou, which he had captured in the early third year of Chongzhen.
As a result, when the Ming army counterattacked, he didn't even fight.
He went directly to Yongping to find Amin, and then they fled out of the customs in despair.
"Report, about three thousand Ming troops are coming from the north, and they seem to be attacking our Anshan Post."
Jianlu at the top of the city rushed over and reported loudly.
When Babutai heard this, he opened his mouth in surprise and said: "How is it possible that there are three thousand Ming troops?"
He was stationed in Anshan Posthouse, how could Guan Ning's army appear in the north of the city?
You must know that Anshan Posthouse is sandwiched between East and West Anshan, and there is no way around it.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help laughing: "It can't be the Dongjiang Ming Army, right?"
Back then, Babutai was still stationed at Anshan Station.
Mao Wenlong led the army to attack, but was defeated by him.
Speaking of which, one of Babutai's achievements was the battle between Anshanyi and Dongjiang Army.
"Going back to the master, the slaves are watching the battle at the top of the city.

They are dressed in rags and look like beggars.
There are also common people among them.
They seem to be the Dongjiang Ming Army."
"Let's go to the city."
Babutai became excited and strode out immediately.
But as soon as he left, he suddenly stopped again and asked suspiciously: "Coming from the north, could it be that idiot Ba Buhai who came from Liaoyang?"
Babutai thinks that he is more capable than Babuhai.
If nothing else, Babuhai was defeated in Korea just now, but he was able to garrison in Liaoyang, while he was sent to Anshan Inn.
This place where birds don't poop is really unfair.
Therefore, he will naturally not be polite to Babu Hai in words.
"Go back to my master, it seems that Liaoyang has been captured by the Dongjiang Ming Army."
"What?"
Babutai was shocked when he heard this, then curled his lips and said with a sneer: "Hey, the Dongjiang Ming Army only knows how to make sneak attacks.
Knowing that our Anshan Posthouse is heavily defended, they went around in a big circle to sneak attack on Liaoyang.
That's it.
Idiot, now that Liaoyang has been lost, let’s see how he escapes this time.”
In Liaodong Jianlu's impression, the Dongjiang Ming Army had always only made sneak attacks.
As soon as the Dajin army arrived, or even before it arrived, they would flee early and never dare to face the enemy head-on.
With this thought in mind, Babutai stopped thinking about it and strode out again, soon arriving at the northern city wall.
He looked up and saw that the Ming army outside the city was getting closer.
Just by looking at it, you can tell that this is definitely Dongjiang Mingjun Most of the Ming troops were seen in ragged clothes, coming in a noisy way along the official road.
Many of them don't even have shabby Yuanyang jerseys, just a wooden gun and they are just soldiers.
A few people rode horses and galloped back and forth in front of and behind the team, shouting at the infantry.
The number of people was indeed small, and the dust brought up along the way was so large that it even obscured the Ming army's rear army, making it difficult to see clearly.
"Master, look at that."
A Jianlu nearby pointed at a cavalryman outside the city and said to Babutai with a little surprise.
Upon hearing this, Babutai looked along his fingers and immediately grinned: "The defeated general is undoubtedly the Dongjiang Ming Army."
It turned out that the man he saw was the one who had come to attack Anshan Inn before.
He was also listed in Dajin's wanted portrait.
He was Mao Wenlong's most powerful impostor, Mao Chengzuo.
Mao Chengzuo seemed to be very angry.
He drove his horse back and forth while yelling at his men.
"Master, look, look, that one over there" Upon hearing this, Babutai looked around according to the prompts and immediately found another old acquaintance.
This person was more familiar to him than the previous Mao Chengzuo.
It was none other than Liu Xingzhi, who used to be an official in Dajin and finally defected to Dongjiang.
Babutai became a little excited when he saw it.
Liu Xingzuo fled Daikin with his brothers, which was a heavy blow to Daikin's prestige.
He knew that the Great Khan had always wanted to capture these Liu brothers, but unfortunately, these Liu brothers were rats and had never come out after hiding in the Dongjiang River.
I dared to come here this time.
It's a godsend.
As long as I win this battle, I won't have to stay in this miserable place anymore.
The city wall of Anshan Yibao is about three feet high, with corner platforms at the four corners, and even waist platforms in the southeast and northwest sections.
There is also a moat outside the city.
It is foreseeable that such fortifications can only be achieved by the Ming troops outside the city.
It is simply impossible to capture it.

The Ming army outside the city stopped within a stone's throw of the city and formed a chaotic formation.
It was really a mess.
Just looking at the hectic scenes of Mao Chengzuo and Liu Xingzhi, you can see how chaotic it is.
"Come on, gather the whole army," Babutai shouted as he looked at the chaos outside the city.
When the Jianlu next to him heard this, he was shocked and quickly reminded: "Master, the Dongjiang Army outside the city is probably more than 3,000, and we only have about 600 people
