Born in the 12th year of Wanli (1June 6th, 584) on April 28th. Forty-seven years Jinshi, Fujian Shaowu magistrate. Good at discussing military affairs, courageous, familiar with the dangers in the frontier, and confident. The first month of the second year of the Apocalypse (1622) was recommended as the history of the Ministry of War. After the Jin army attacked Guangning (now the northern town of Liaoning), the Ming court agreed to keep Shanhaiguan, so they arrived at Shanhaiguan alone to inspect the situation and returned to Beijing to recommend themselves to keep Liao. In February, Chao Huo went to the Ministry of War to supervise foreign troops. Before taking office, he interviewed the former Liaodong coach who was wrongly imprisoned, and * * * was responsible for defending Liao. In June, he was ordered to go to Qiantun (now southwest of Suizhong, Liaoning Province) to resettle exiled Liao people and walk alone among the thorns infested by tigers and leopards at night. The king relied heavily on Kim and ordered him to prepare against Ning Qianbing. Yuan Chonghuan refuted Wang's statement that the Jin Dynasty retreated to Shanhaiguan, and advocated retaining Ningyuan (now Xingcheng), an important town outside Shanhaiguan, which was praised by Sun Chengzong, a university student and minister of the Ministry of War. In August, Yan Mingtai, who was in charge of the army, went through the customs and made an alliance with Mongolia, the Lord of the Han Dynasty, to relieve the worries of the West.
In the spring of three years, I went to the Harashen Department of Mongolia to recover 270 miles of land outside the customs. In September, under the command of Sun Chengzong, Mangui, the deputy commander, entered Ningyuan to study the method of building a city barrier, protecting the city with Taiwan, protecting the citizens with shovels, and establishing city rules with a final decision, with a view to building a military, political and economic center that will be a barrier to Shanhaiguan within one year. Because they are good at comforting soldiers and stabilizing people's hearts, officers and men are willing to do their best. In February of four years, Bunin was the secretary of the road ahead. In September, company commanders Ma Shilong and Wang Shiqin led 65438+2000 sailors to patrol in Guangning and other places in the east. After returning to HQ, they suggested to Sun Chengzong that Jinzhou and Youtun (now southeast of Linghai) should be recovered, so as to make contributions to the invasion, prepare an agreement, and then enhance the right to participate in politics. In the summer of five years, we made progress in consultation with Sun Chengzong, and sent troops to Jinzhou, Youtun, and Linghebao (at the present Linghai border) to build the city wall, open up the border for 200 miles, and gradually build a defense line of Ning and Jin. In October, when Yan Dang Gao Di succeeded Sun Chengzong as Liaodong manager and ordered the withdrawal of the garrison in Shanhaiguan pass, he urged him to withdraw the vanguard and swear to keep the lonely city Ningyuan. In order to stabilize the army, I took my mother and wife to live in the city. 12 months, entered the provincial judges. In the first month of six years, in the battle of Ningyuan, he led the army and the people to clear the field, defeated Houjinhan Nurhachi with artillery, and won the first great victory since the battle of Houjin in the Ming Dynasty. I was promoted to the right suggestion, the governor of Liaodong, and the assistant minister of the right Ministry of War. In October, Nurhachi died, and Huang Taiji was in a sweat position. He sent messengers to offer condolences, congratulate his heirs and explore the truth of the latter. Since then, contact with the late Jin emissary, ostensibly talking about peace, is actually slowing down the troops to prepare for war.
At the beginning of the seventh year, he was authorized to administer Shanhaiguan and engage in cheap work. Later, when Jin Jun attacked North Korea (now North Korea and South Korea) in the east, he was too busy to look west. Yuan Chonghuan forge ahead, gradually recover the western Liaoning wall and rebuild the Ningjin defense line, which is known as loyalty and virtue in history. In May and June, in the battle of Ningjin, he and Zhao Lvjiao split the troops equally to defend the baby city, and defeated Huang Taiji of the later Jin Dynasty many times with artillery fire, and won the victory of Ningjin.
