Yuan Chonghuan indeed deserved to be killed, and the reason is not the ten crimes fabricated by Chongzhen.

The greatest sin of Yuan Chonghuan was luring the killing of Mao Wendlong. After Mao Wendlong's death, not only did Huang Taiji have no more worries, but the heavily armored infantry stationed at Peach Blossom Island and the most advanced firearm troops at the time directly surrendered to Huang Taiji. This allowed the Qing army to acquire artillery such as the red-coated cannons, the light cannons, and the matchlocks. Originally, the Qing army was not adept at attacking cities, but with the firearms, their combat effectiveness was directly doubled;

Some say that Yuan Chonghuan had the imperial edict sword, and there was nothing wrong with killing Mao Wendlong. The problem is that Mao Wendlong also had the imperial edict sword, so killing Mao Wendlong was purely due to Yuan Chonghuan's narrow-mindedness and jealousy of talent!
