The Ming Dynasty's initiative to stir up trouble in Liaodong was a very good opportunity for Sun Chuanting.
Those who followed Sun Chuanting to Liaodong also had great hopes in their hearts and were ready to make a big splash in Liaodong this time.
After the 10,000 troops arrived in Liaodong, they were quickly separated.
Sun Chuanting, Cao Wenzhao, and Wu Xiang led 5,000 troops to Shenyang City. Their mission was to cooperate with Xiong Tingbi to build momentum here. At the same time, if the Jiannu army sent troops, Sun Chuanting and his men would also cooperate in the attack.
These five thousand men were transferred here as elite troops. For Zhu Youxiao, these men and horses were his most trusted confidants, and he would feel very sad if they suffered any loss.
These were Zhu Youxiao's direct subordinates. Although he was reluctant to let them go, he still had to use them. He couldn't have other thoughts at this time.
If a real fight broke out, Zhu Youxiao was really afraid that Xiong Tingbi's men would not be able to hold out. Xiong Tingbi might have no problem defending the city, but if it was a field battle outside the city, if Huang Taiji was determined to fight, Xiong Tingbi might not be able to hold out.
Huang Taiji himself was not lacking in courage to fight to the death, and that was how the Jiannu army survived all their journey.
That's why Zhu Youxiao transferred Sun Chuanting there, and he used this group of people as his elite troops. If we have to make an analogy, it would be the top-notch ace division in the Huaihai Campaign - the Huaye 2nd Division, which had only one commander, and that was Li Yunlong.
To Zhu Youxiao, Sun Chuanting's five thousand men were his top-notch ace division.
Zhu Youxiao also made very detailed arrangements in terms of the matching of generals.
Sun Chuanting was a civil servant, so he had no problem commanding tactics, but he was not so good at charging into battle. Therefore, Zhu Youxiao paired him with Cao Wenzhao and Wu Xiang.
Wu Xiang’s martial arts skills are not as good, but they are still okay and he can fight.
Cao Wenzhao was a truly formidable general. With someone like him, Sun Chuanting's team would definitely be much stronger, at least they wouldn't be short of manpower when charging into battle.
Another group of people was sent by Zhu Youxiao to Guangning to assist Wang Zaijing.
Although I don’t know whether there will be a war in Guangning, if there is a war, the troops of Guangning City will definitely not be able to do it, and may even be worse than those of Shenyang City.
Although Wang Zaijin had been training his troops for a long time, it was still not enough. If a major battle really came, the troops in Guangning City would definitely not be able to withstand it. So Zhu Youxiao sent a group of troops to Guangning City.
The leader of this group was Lu Xiangsheng, a person whom Zhu Youxiao valued very much. His martial arts skills were naturally impeccable, and Zhu Youxiao liked him very much.
Lu Xiangsheng was paired with Liu Xian, a highly accomplished graduate of the Imperial Academy. While Liu Xian's court strategy was somewhat lacking, his military strategy was unmatched. The two of them, when paired together, were a formidable force.
After the two groups separated, they quickly rushed to the battlefield. Liaodong also became tense in an instant, and the entire Liaodong was shrouded in war clouds.
In Shenyang City.
"Okay, I understand." After listening to the report from his subordinates, Xiong Tingbi turned around and prepared to go and meet them.
Although this army only has 5,000 people and the generals who came are not famous, they are the emperor's confidants and he cannot afford to neglect them.
What's more, Sun Chuanting also had a record of military success. When he was suppressing the rebellion in the southwest, he killed so many rebels that they were thrown into chaos.
Although the Ming Dynasty had always looked down on the South, believing that the main threat was from the North, the fact that Sun Chuanting could slaughter the rebels and leave them helpless was enough to prove his ability.
What's more, in Xiong Tingbi's view, he and Sun Chuanting are both His Majesty's men, they are all family, so everyone has something to talk about, and it is easier to talk to family members.
Early in the morning, when it was still dark, Xiong Tingbi and a group of people were waiting outside the gate of Shenyang City.
After standing in the morning dew for a long time, Xiong Tingbi did not show any impatience.
On the contrary, some people under Xiong Tingbi were unhappy. After all, their Marshal Xiong had an official position and qualifications here, and it was not good to let the Marshal wait here so hard for a young man.
But Marshal Xiong didn't show any dissatisfaction, so it was difficult for others to say anything.
At this moment, some dust suddenly rose on the distant horizon, and then a shadowy figure appeared.
"Here they come!" Someone in the crowd shouted excitedly, and everyone who was originally drowsy instantly focused their attention on them.
Sure enough, the team appeared.
Leading the way was a cavalry unit, and what caught everyone's eye were tall, black horses, their coats glistening in the sun.
Needless to say, this kind of horse is definitely of extraordinary origin, and is rare in places like Liaodong. Being able to equip a team with such horses is obviously a huge investment.
When the people in Liaodong saw these horses, they immediately became jealous.
Li Guangrong, who was standing next to Xiong Tingbi, couldn't help but say, "As expected of the emperor's personal army, they are really rich!"
In addition to envy, there was more jealousy and some dissatisfaction in this tone.
Obviously, in Li Guangrong's view, it was a waste to give these people this money. They were just for show and could not be used on the battlefield at all.
Xiong Tingbi didn't say anything. He glared at Li Guangrong and said in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense! Tell the people below when you go back not to talk nonsense!"
Li Guangrong nodded and said, "Don't worry, Marshal. I know my limits."
In fact, Li Guangrong really knew his limits. He only complained to Xiong Tingbi and didn't dare to say anything after he returned.
These people are the emperor's personal army, what do they represent?
