Is the failure of Yuan Chonghuan's five-year plan to flatten Liao due to boasting or because Chongzhen is not powerful?

Yuan Chonghuan's five-year plan to level Liao is actually a joke. He blew this cow just to make Chongzhen happy and fool the children. At that time, the Ming Dynasty didn't have the strength to drive the 8 Jin Army out of Liaodong, and Yuan Chonghuan could do nothing even if he wanted to kill the thief. It is everyone's responsibility that the five-year plan failed to equalize Liao, but as the initiator of the plan, Yuan Chonghuan has to bear half the burden.

First of all, let's take a look at the comparison of military strength between the two sides. The army of the late Jin Dynasty was dominated by cavalry, and it was the best in the field. In the era of cold weapons, people on horseback naturally suppressed infantry. The troops led by Yuan Chonghuan, mainly infantry, are good at guarding the city, and the city walls can defend against the powerful impact of horses. If the Ming army and 8 jin j were pulled out to confront each other in the wild, Yuan Chonghuan had no chance of winning.

Yuan Chonghuan's two previous victories, "Ningjin Victory" and "Ningyuan Victory", were all achieved by guarding the city. But the army he led had two field battles with the post-Jin Army. The first time, the whole army was wiped out outside Zunhua, and the second time, the latter Jin army had already robbed things and retreated, without really starting work. Now he wants to take the initiative to attack Liao Ping. Unless he can get Hal's mobile castle and fight the mobile wall, he will take the army to send the head to other cavalry.

Besides, the pot of Chongzhen. He's really not awesome. At that time, there was no money in the Ming Dynasty, and the national treasury was empty. If Chongzhen has enough money to buy equipment for the army, and then buy neighboring Mongolia and North Korea as allies, the three parties will act together and squeeze the cavalry maneuver space of the 8 Jin Army step by step, there is still a great chance of winning. Unfortunately, it's not a local tyrant player, so I can only think about it.

The last pot will return to Yuan Chonghuan. He put forward the idea that "Liao people should defend Liao soil", which turned Liaodong army into a warlord. He just tried his best to defend and didn't want to attack seriously, in order to get the priority of pay supply and become his own local tyrant in Liaodong. Later, in order to seize power, he killed Mao privately, but he failed to integrate Pidao. It turned out that Mao stared at them and frightened them. As a result, Yuan Chonghuan broke one of his thighs and wiped out Mao Longwen in front of Liao Ping.

To sum up, Yuan Chonghuan's five-year plan to pacify Liao failed because of his boasting, so he had to stand up and carry the cauldron.
