Yuan Chonghuan and Hong Chengchou are both capable military leaders appointed by Chongzhen to counter the Manchu invaders, but they meet with different fates — Yuan is executed by slow slicing for treason after Chongzhen believes false accusations that Yuan is plotting against him; Hong is forced to surrender to the Manchus after his defeat at the Battle of Songjin, and he aids the Qing forces on their campaign against the Southern Ming Dynasty later.
