When the army retreated to Liaoxi, Lu Hanqiang announced that the army would stop at the border, bury the remains of 13,000 soldiers on the spot, and allocate silver taels to build a martyr's cemetery, after burying the remains of the martyrs, Lu Hanqiang stood in front of the layers of new graves, solemnly swore to these martyrs, and the soldiers behind him: "You are here, but I will pass in front of you again in the near future, restore Liaodong, complete our unfinished great cause, and let our Han nation once again set foot on the original homeland of ours, And keep moving forward, for the rejuvenation of our Han nation, we will not retreat. ” Lü Hanqiang's army retreated to Liaoxi, and the entire front returned to its original state again.
It seems that the whole battle has returned to the original point from the original point, and the two sides have suffered damage to each other and have not decided the winner, but compared to Huang Taiji, his life is more difficult, and part of Lu Hanqiang's goal has been achieved.
In a big war, the main loss was his pro-military horses on the three banners, and the yellow flag was completely disabled, and the loss of 20,000 Han and eight banners and more than 10,000 Korean slave troops was also unbearable, after all, it was the strong labor that Daikin needed the most, so calculated, this time it was a full loss of nearly 50,000 horses, which was the most painful loss after the Battle of Gyeonggi.
At the same time, this war was launched in the Liaodong region, so that the Liaodong region, which had been burned into a white land by Lu Hanqiang, was completely barren into a wasteland.
And the biggest loss is his belongings and population.
This time in the face of Lu Hanqiang's attack, it was completely a loss-making deal.
Not only did they not pay their salaries, but they also required all the bannermen to bring their own grain, grass, knives and guns, and it was strictly stipulated that seventy percent of the captures obtained in the war must be returned to the state treasury.
But even so, as soon as they heard the call for war, all the men and horses enthusiastically participated, because it was an opportunity to make a fortune.
And now it's different, now it's defense, no capture, only pay, fighting a war is a money-burning job, even the Ming Dynasty, which has a vast territory and a large population, in the past few years, was almost dragged to the abyss of death by this continuous war, not to mention that the weak Houjin has only changed from offense to defense in the past two years, which has made Huang Taiji feel financially stretched and unable to make ends meet.
The mobilization of nearly 100,000 troops consumed countless food and equipment, especially in order to boost the morale of the Zhenghuang and yellow flags, and drive the Zhenghong Banner and the Red Flag to the battlefield, Huang Taiji had to take out his own body and silver money for the first time and give a reward in advance, which made his household even worse, and had to cancel the original decision to help those disaster victims, and let the countless starving people caused by Lu Hanqiang's famine plan cry and die of starvation.
As a result of such measures, turmoil began to appear in the eastern Liaodong region, and the silk silks, that is, the poles that occupy the mountains as kings, have risen in all directions, and they have looted everywhere for their livelihoods, which has made the crisis of Houjin even worse.
Huang Taiji also has one of the most fatal losses, and that is the population.
The war lasted only four days, but it was precisely because of these four days that Houjin was powerless to care about the blockade line on both sides.
Taking advantage of this war between the two sides, no one paid attention to the opportunity of those fleeing, countless Han people in Liaodong, in order to avoid the persecution of famine that had appeared, under the outrageous conditions of Lu Hanqiang's generosity, dragged their families and mouths, and threw themselves into Liaoxi day and night.
The Jurchens were born in the mountains, they didn't know how to farm and manufacture at all, and all the land and workshops in the land needed Han people to operate and operate, especially in commerce, as a result, with the loss of a large number of Han people, countless lands were barren, countless workshops were abandoned, commerce has almost stopped, and the entire Dajin Kingdom is about to enter paralysis.
And at this critical moment, seeing that the cold winter is coming, and a greater famine has broken out, Huang Taiji has no time to go to the wound, and is ready to start a war against Lu Hanqiang again, not to mention the war, he doesn't even dare to provoke, for fear of provoking himself, his top priority is to raise food and stabilize the people in the jurisdiction to deal with the huge disaster in front of him.
When Huang Taiji was sad and anxious, Lu Hanqiang's life was not as leisurely as Huang Taiji, and after returning to Liaoxi, he buried the remains of the martyrs, issued disabled pensions, and reorganized the team to fight, which had made Lu Hanqiang very busy, and reporting the battle situation to the top was also Lu Hanqiang's top priority.
Spread out the pen and paper, Lu Hanqiang detailed the cause of the battle, the purpose of the battle, as well as the process and results of the battle, of course, he also wrote down the huge blow he thought had caused to Huang Taiji, and reported to Chongzhen in detail, this must not be concealed, because Chongzhen is a shrewd person, especially now that the intelligence of the royal post delivery firm in the world has almost reached the point of pervasiveness, and it is impossible to hide it if you want to conceal it, which can only increase Chongzhen's suspicion.
Originally, the relationship between Lu Hanqiang and Chongzhen was delicate, if the heart of suspicion was together, then this delicate balance would be broken, and it would not be a good thing for the entire Ming Dynasty to break this relationship between himself and Chongzhen.
If he is like at the beginning, he stands on top of the court, for the attacks of these Donglin ministers, Lu Hanqiang has 800 reasons to wait for him, and in the end they attack themselves just to bring humiliation on themselves, it really can't work, or according to the original habit, say that you can beat you, just your physique like a little chicken, Lu Hanqiang is now absolutely single-handedly full of court, according to the rules of the court battle, there is a bottom line that no one will break, that is, as long as you stand in the face of righteousness, you can shoot arbitrarily, If you beat him, it will be in vain.
As for righteousness, Lu Hanqiang's best skill is to find righteousness.
But now he can't do it, he is far away from the court, and he uses the two methods of self-defense and writing a letter to explain, both of which are far away and can't quench his thirst, this is the trouble that Ouyang Xiu was in back then.
Therefore, Lu Hanqiang had to pinch his nose and carefully look for reasons for his dispatch of troops this time, praise and self-praise.
This recital is quite difficult to write, because in this uprising, although this is due to the consideration of the current situation of the country's righteousness, but after all, in the eyes of those courtiers and Chongzhen, it is definitely their own disregard for the country's righteousness, only for their own selfishness, which does not occupy a foothold in the Spring and Autumn Period, especially this time, because of the eagerness to get out, did not get a head, which is not counted in the entire Ming Dynasty's military exploits, that is to say, he did a defeat without a little military merit, but lost 10,000 horses, when leaving, Sun Chengzong wanted to help Lu Hanqiang say something, but because of this harsh condition, he had nothing to say. t1706231537:
