At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were many famous generals, and Sun Chengzong was one of the most dazzling generals.
Compared to Sun Chuanting's schemes and schemes, Cao Wenzhao and Lu Xiangsheng's fierce pursuit, Sun Chengzong's most outstanding aspect was his military layout.
Back when Nurhachi first raised his army, he led the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty and ran amok in Liaodong. No one could stop him. As a result, the people of Liaodong were displaced and miserable.
At this time, Sun Chengzong was ordered to Liaodong. Recruit exiled people and rebuild Liaodong.
Sun Chengzong used his excellent military skills to do two things. One was to recruit and build Guanning Iron Cavalry that was comparable to the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty. This Guanning Cavalry was the most elite cavalry force of the Ming Dynasty before Ye Xin built the Brave Guard Camp.
The other thing was that Sun Chengzong had formed a defense line in Guanjin. They established a stubborn defense line along Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou to resist the invasion of the Later Jin army.
This line of defense made the Jin army suffer. The Houjin were originally invincible in Liaodong, but because of this line of defense, they began to be restrained in Liaodong and were suppressed by the Ming Dynasty.
The Houjin Army hated the Guanjin Defense Line and wanted to destroy it many times. However, from the time the Houjin Army was established to the time the Qing Army entered the pass, they had not been able to destroy the Guanjin Defense Line. Even the founder of the Houjin Army, Huang Taiji's father, Nurhachi, was killed by cannons because he wanted to destroy the Guanjin Defense Line.
The battle that killed Nurhachi in the Battle of Ningyuan was fought by Yuan Chonghuan, and Yuan Chonghuan became a god in that battle. But the foundation for winning this battle was built by Sun Chengzong.
Now, Ye Xin had already defeated the main fighting force of the Houjin Kingdom, the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, in the battle to defend Beijing. At this moment, not only did the Later Jin not have the strength to attack the Ming Dynasty, but it was also a problem for them to maintain their position.
Therefore, the person Ye Xin had chosen to kill Hou Jin was Sun Chengzong.
Sun Chengzong was currently stationed in Beijing to help defend the city. He had personally witnessed how his young emperor had led the Brave Guards Battalion to defeat the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty. He was filled with admiration for his young emperor.
When Sun Chengzong was brought into the palace by Cao Huachun, Sun Chengzong immediately knelt down in front of Ye Xin without a word.
"Great Ming has the emperor, this lowly official can rest assured! Although the country was in a critical situation, as long as the Emperor was around, then Great Ming would definitely be able to walk out of the predicament and regain its former glory!”
"Hehe, Lord Sun is too kind!"
"Emperor, this lowly official is not overpraising! As the saying goes, Jurchen less than ten thousand, more than ten thousand is invincible. And now, Huang Taiji had personally led 20,000 soldiers to attack Beijing. However, they were defeated by the emperor's 1,000 soldiers. This was unprecedented!”
"With the emperor's talent, not to mention a small Houjin, the rest of the independent forces in the country will not be a problem. Sooner or later, they will be completely destroyed by the emperor!”
At this moment, this famous general of the late Ming Dynasty was already prostrating himself in admiration of Ye Xin. Of course, there was a reason for his admiration. Ye Xin's actions were enough to be recorded in the annals of history, enough to make Sun Chengzong admire him.
This kind of heaven-defying battle record, from ancient times until now, no one could surpass Ye Xin.
"Hehe, Lord Sun, this time, this one called you over not for anything else but to use you to manage Liaodong again. What do you think?”
"Although this lowly official is already old, since the emperor has requested, this lowly official is willing to immediately rush to Liaodong to take up his post and help the emperor defeat the Houjin remnant enemy!”
"Good! With Lord Sun's words, I can rest assured!”
Ye Xin's plan was simple. Even though Hou Jin had always been Big Ming's greatest worry, at this point, Hou Jin had indeed been crippled by Ye Xin.
Now, Hou Jin did not have the strength to fight against the Ming Dynasty, so Ye Xin planned to let Sun Chengzong go to Liaodong and organize the soldiers to launch a final attack on Hou Jin, directly destroying Hou Jin.
"Lord Sun, remember, even though the main force of the Houjin has been killed by Zhen, Huang Taiji still has some remaining strength. So this time, when you go to Liaodong, you must not underestimate the enemy. You must take it step by step and kill Hou Jin, understand?”
"Yes, sir! I know that I will do my best to serve the emperor!”
"Yes! That's the right thing to do!"
"In addition, when you have a decisive battle with the Houjin, come and ask me to go with you! Zhen also wants to personally go to Houjin to take a look and see the expressions of Huang Taiji and the others surrendering to Ming!”
Ye Xin thought to himself that he couldn't let go of this opportunity to beat the drowning dog and humiliate the enemy. These Houjin people, in history, after entering the pass, slaughtered all the way from the north to the south. How many people did they kill? Since there was a chance to teach them a lesson this time, Ye Xin naturally wouldn't let it go.
Yuan Chonghuan was still locked up in the prison. It was useless to rely on Yuan Chonghuan to manage Liaodong. Now Liaodong could only place their hopes on Sun Chengzong.
Ye Xin pondered. With Sun Chengzong's ability, it would not be a problem for him to deal with Hou Jin, who was already on the verge of death. Now, Hou Jin's destruction was only a matter of time.
It was a pity that this independent force that had dominated the Central Plains for nearly three hundred years was now completely convinced by Ye Xin in just one battle.
Ye Xin's battle directly wiped out three hundred years of history. However, this was not the key. The key was that Ye Xin had saved Great Ming. He would bring Great Ming back to its former glory and build it into the most dazzling and prosperous country in this era.
