Liaodong Snow: Paper Is Faster Than Knife

Wanli Liaodong, Ming army general Shen Li was ordered to clear out Gule City. He noticed in the rebellious army that the various tribes in Jianzhou were gathering together, and shot Jue Chang'an and Takshi without reporting. After the war, the two men were written by the Liaodong General Military Office as "several others who died in the rebellion." Shen Li thought that he had cut off a sprouting branch for Daming, but he did not expect that a young man in the snow saw all this. The boy's name is Nurhachi. For the first time, he understood: Knives can only kill people, but paper can determine whether a person is still a human being after death. In the following decades, Shen Li rose through the ranks, suppressing tribes, quelling border troubles, reforming war reports, and protecting Liaodong for the Ming Dynasty. He is loyal, capable, and ruthless, and almost every judgment he makes is correct at the time. But many years later, he discovered that the order in Liaodong that he had personally maintained was pushing the Jurchen tribes toward true integration. Eventually, the old situation in Liaodong collapsed. Shen Li knew that the Ming Dynasty could not be saved, but still chose to defend Gubao for three days. The Ming Dynasty wrote him as a sinner, but his enemies recorded his name. This is the story of a Ming army general who suppressed Liaodong for Ming Dynasty for thirty years, and finally found that he had personally created the most dangerous enemy for Ming Dynasty.
