It is about sixty miles from Anshan Yibao to Liaoyang, and more than one hundred and twenty miles from Liaoyang to Shenyang.
For this short distance, if it were replaced by a highway in later generations, it would only take a little more than an hour to drive, or two hours at most.
If replaced by ancient time, it would only be an hour.
Now, Huang Taiji led the army back.
When he was approaching Liaoyang, it became dark.
When it was dark, it was too costly for the army to rush on the road, but the cavalry still marched all night, and only the infantry rested in Liaoyang and continued on the road the next day.
It was not until three days later that Huang Taiji led the army back to Shenyang.
During this process, a series of messengers reported to the emperor from time to time news of the destruction of grain fields in various places.
With each additional report, Huang Taiji's mood worsened, his despair increased, and the anger in his heart accumulated more.
Huang Taiji had launched a war to overthrow the country before, and there were almost no troops in Shenyang City.
The imperial commanders had all marched in person.
When there was important news, they would naturally go straight to the imperial front as soon as possible.
Therefore, when Huang Taiji arrived in Shenyang, Shenyang City did not know what was happening outside.
When they heard that the emperor, who was conducting his own expedition, was back, the old and weak who stayed in Shenyang City came out to welcome him.
In their view, the Qing Dynasty had used all its troops.
In the past, every time it did this, it had achieved a great victory.
To put it far, the Xianhan led the entire army to win the Battle of Sarhu, and for The future of the Qing Dynasty has laid a solid foundation; more recently, Huang Taiji He led the whole army into the pass and plundered the rich Gyeonggi land, which was a glory that the Manchu people had never seen before; in addition, Huang Taiji also led the army to conquer Korea, a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and completely reduced it to As a material supplier to the Qing Dynasty, this can be regarded as a contribution to the destruction of the country.
This time, it was just to defeat the defeated generals in the past, using the strength of the whole country, and the imperial commander personally conquered it.
In the hearts of these old and young captives in Shenyang City, it must be a great victory.
However, when they arrived on the street, they did not hear the sound of messengers announcing victory before the imperial driver entered the city, which made many old people feel a little bad.
Logically speaking, if the battle is really won, the victory is inevitable before the emperor enters the city.
The whole city will be shocked, and the Holy Will will naturally be happy.
However, it is difficult for them to accept that the whole country's troops were defeated, let alone believe it.
Therefore, in their minds, there were probably other thoughts: Could it be that this war was a bit unexpected?
The emperor wanted to surprise everyone, and he wanted to personally announce the victory to his subjects.
This kind of speculation, they knew the result when they saw the imperial commander entering the city, and everything came to light.
I saw that the leading soldiers were all exhausted, and most of them had a strong sense of frustration or depression on their faces.
Anyway, it can't be a happy thing, that is, it can't be a good thing.
Before the expedition, these soldiers were all full of high morale and enthusiasm, but now you can't see any of these in them.
Some of them are just in a low mood.
They seem to be weak when walking, even the weapons in their hands.
They are just trying to resist.
Some impatient old people, or those who had fought for the Qing Dynasty for many years and made meritorious deeds, had some support in their hearts, or recognized acquaintances among the soldiers, so they inquired about the soldiers entering the city on the roadside.
"Did we win?
Did we completely annihilate the Ming army?
Did we let the Ming army escape a lot?"
"We have so many troops, it's impossible to lose.
Why are you crying like this?"
"" No one paid attention to the marching soldiers, as if they didn't hear them, or they were speechless.
It turned out to be a trick of the Ming army to mobilize troops to fight like this, and fell into the trap of the Ming army.
How could such a thing be said out loud?
The Jianlu people who watched the army entering the city couldn't get the answer they wanted, but they were not fools, or they were fools, and they no longer needed answers.
The matter was already so obvious.
They all let go of the ordinary soldiers and looked at the army entering the city with some disappointment.
They still had the last bit of luck in their hearts, hoping to see their emperor.

They hoped that all this was the emperor's deliberate decree, just for the victory.
The news, spoken by the emperor himself, was a surprise to them.
However, their last glimmer of hope was shattered.
From the beginning to the end, until the army entered the city, they did not see their emperor.
The emperor had always traveled on horseback before, but this time he was probably hiding in a certain car.
From this, most people were thinking: Maybe the emperor is as depressed as these ordinary soldiers.
However, they all guessed wrong.
Huang Taiji at this time can be said to be full of anger.
The guards around him all know that it is best not to appear in front of the emperor at this time, otherwise the emperor will not know what to look down on and die in confusion.
When the emperor entered the palace, Huang Taiji's Fujins heard that the emperor had returned from the expedition and rushed out to greet him.
Before the principals arrived, the palace maids and chamberlains who had stood in front of them had already come out to greet them.
Just like before, Zhezhe's palace maid led the people to kneel down first and smiled when they saw Huang Taiji striding towards them.
He greeted him respectfully and said, "My servants respectfully welcome your majesty back to the palace after victory.
Fujin is already waiting for your majesty in the harem."
When other chambermaids heard this, they habitually wanted to follow her and say congratulations to the emperor.
But they didn't expect that Huang Taiji had already walked in front of the female officer at this time.
He actually raised his foot and kicked the female officer who was kneeling there on the head.
He kicked the female officer over and her head was broken and bloody.
It's horror.
"Come on, pull him out and feed the dog to death," Huang Taiji shouted sharply, then he didn't care about this and continued to stride inside.
The female officer was in so much pain that she was dragged away before she could recover from the pain.
She was immediately frightened to death.
She really didn’t understand what she had done wrong.
In the past, hadn’t the emperor always been kind to the people in his palace?
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me."
No matter how much the female officer begged for mercy, she was eventually dragged away by the wolf-like guards, leaving only the palace maid kneeling there, trembling.
On the other side, Zhezhe, Bumubutai, Hai Lanzhu's aunt and sister were coming out to greet them.
Suddenly they heard the noise coming from the front and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
One of the palace ladies reminded Zhezhe a little worriedly that it seemed to be their female officer.
Before they could react, they saw Huang Taiji turning from the front, striding towards him with a gloomy face and eyes that seemed to be full of anger
