Just when Li Zicheng retreated from Shanxi, Yunnan, which was far away on the border of the Ming Dynasty, also ushered in an uninvited guest.

"Boom"

Located at the edge of the Dianchi Lake, under the city of Kunming, a huge roar suddenly erupted.

The sturdy walls of Kunming City collapsed under the watchful eyes of more than 200,000 soldiers of the Western Army.

"Kill into the city!"

Outside Kunming, Zhang Xianzhong raised his saber in the Chinese army, as if he wanted to vent the anger in his heart, and directly slashed down.

Groups of soldiers of the Great Western Army rushed into the city like locusts, and when they saw people on the street, they directly slashed and killed them.

After a while, bursts of screams rang out in the entire Kunming city.

In less than an hour, Sun Kewang, who was covered in blood, excitedly walked into Zhang Xianzhong's camp.

"Your Majesty, the soldiers have taken Kunming, and Mu Tianbo, the Duke of Qianguo, has committed suicide in King Mu's mansion, let's hurry up and enter the city."

is different from when he was in Chengdu, Zhang Xianzhong's face at this time is much older.

But he was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, like the costume of the founding king.

Since being pitted by Yu Yongkai in Chengdu, Zhang Xianzhong retreated all the way south with his soldiers and horses, successively defeated the official army led by Sichuan general Yang Zhan and others, and occupied Yazhou and Jiading Prefecture.

But what he didn't expect was that Yu Yongkai didn't even want Zhang Xianzhong to stay in Sichuan, and two months later, the Great Western Army cleaned up the gentry in Jiading and other places, and Yu Yongkai waved 80,000 troops south.

Zhang Xianzhong, who did not dare to go straight to the peak, had to hurriedly proclaim himself emperor in Jiading Prefecture, and then the whole army marched to Yunnan.

The Qianguo Mansion had already deployed 80,000 native soldiers at the junction of Sichuan and Yunnan with the help of Wu Zhaoyuan, the governor of Yunnan, and others.

These native soldiers are accustomed to being the king and hegemon in Yunnan, and their combat power is also one of the best, but unfortunately, they ran into the army of rogues led by Zhang Xianzhong.

After recuperating in Jiading and other places for a few months, Zhang Xianzhong's strength has recovered a lot, anyway, the rogue doesn't care about casualties, but these native soldiers dispatched by the Qianguo Mansion can't.

Every native soldier is the private property of the Tusi from all over the country, and they can't bear it if they die a few more, and after a few battles, many native soldiers fled directly halfway, and Mu Tianbo had to return to Kunming with the remnants of the defeated general.

Originally, he also expected to rely on the tall city walls of Kunming to resist Zhang Xianzhong, but who told Liu Ximing to point out the way to break the city to Liukou in advance.

In the face of the wind-like attack of the explosive pack, the city of Kunming fell as scheduled.

Sun Kewang's excited expression not only did not cause Zhang Xianzhong to be happy at all, but made his face even more gloomy.

"I'm so happy to have a hammer, we have people chased from Sichuan to Yunnan, can a Kunming city compare to Sichuan, Huguang and Jiangxi that I lost?"

The more Zhang Xianzhong spoke, the more angry he became, and finally stood up directly and stabbed the horse next to him to death, such a tyrannical behavior made the civil and military forces of the Great Western Army around him silent.

Especially Wang Zhaolin, Zhang Xianzhong's good son-in-law and big celebrity in the past, he didn't dare to say anything at this time, you must know that he was the one who offered Zhang Xianzhong a plan to go to Xichuan first, and then set Hanzhong, and then he will be able to achieve the cause of Wang Ba like Liu Bei.

No matter how bad it is, you can also learn from Liu Chan to sit firmly as the son of heaven for decades.

When he first set this plan, Wang Zhaolin was really a little fluttering, and he felt that he was better than Zhuge and wiser.

If it weren't for Wang Zhaolin being his son-in-law, Zhang Xianzhong would have cut him down a long time ago.

Zhong Yuhe saw Wang Zhaolin's expression behind Zhang Xianzhong, smiled knowingly, and hurriedly came out to persuade:

"Your Majesty, it's useless to stay here, it's better to go to the city first, no matter what you say, the Duke of Qianguo has been guarding Yunnan for hundreds of years, and if you want to come to the family with a lot of wealth, with this as support, our army will at least have no worries for a while."

Zhang Xianzhong was still quite polite to Zhong Yuhe, mainly because of Zhong Yuhe's several suggestions, the Great Western Army successfully avoided the ambush set by Yu Yongkai, and Zhong Yuhe at this time had a bit of a left and right role in Zhang Xianzhong's heart.

Sure enough, seeing Zhong Yuhe come out to make peace, Zhang Xianzhong accepted his anger and entered Kunming with a poker face.

As soon as he entered the Mu Palace, saw the rich decoration in the mansion, and then looked at the royal mansion that was captured, Zhang Xianzhong suddenly forgot the unhappiness outside the city, and became a little uneasy.

With one hand, he pulled the two cardamom little maids into his arms and ravaged them, Zhang Xianzhong looked at Zhong Yuhe with a lewd smile.

"Mr. Zhong, you're still right, my old Zhang thinks it's not bad to stay in Kunming at this time, you see if we can stay here and become a soil emperor."

Zhong Yuhe was indifferent to the screams of the little lady in Zhang Xianzhong's arms, but he sneered in his heart.

You thief, you still want to stay in Yunnan, I'm afraid this is a pipe dream.

Yu Yongkai's army is behind him, if it weren't for the place where the Great Western Army is still useful, I'm afraid that it would have been covered up long ago.

Zhong Yuhe's head turned around, and he smiled, "Your Majesty, this idea is not bad, the soldiers followed His Majesty to fight for thousands of miles, and they were already a little tired, so they had a good rest." ”

"Then Yu Yongkai, as the chief soldier of Sichuan, is not very good at following him, so we can make a good fuss about Yunnan."

Zhang Xianzhong suddenly came to his senses, he pinched two soft places with both hands, and the slightly crying cry of the little lady in his arms made him even more interested.

"I'm right, since Mr. Zhong also said so, it seems that this thing can really be done, hahaha, pass the order, let the sons and daughters be happy."

Without waiting for Zhang Xianzhong's personal soldiers to go to give the order, Zhong Yuhe hurriedly stopped:

"Your Majesty, if you want to stay in Yunnan for a long time, there are at least two things to do, otherwise we will not stay in Yunnan for long."

"What's the matter, old bell, tell me about it."

"The first is to let the Great Western Army protect the Han people in Yunnan, if we want to gain a foothold, these Han people are our foundation, after all, the natives are barbarians, and it is impossible to have the same heart with us after all."

Zhang Xianzhong pulled his beard, "Well, that's right." ”

Zhong Yuhe continued to laugh and said: "This second is to vigorously attack these Tusi in Yunnan, these people each occupy one side, they want soldiers and food, it is easy to be co-opted by others to attack us, why not strike first." ”

"In this way, not only can we eliminate the scourge of the natives, but also collect money from these toasts, and it will also be convenient for us to rule Yunnan.

As soon as Zhong Yu finished saying this, Zhang Xianzhong's eyes lit up and he slapped the little lady's buttocks in his arms.

"This plan is good, Lao Zhong is really my Zhang what, just do it."

Because of Zhong Yuhe's words, the Han people in Kunming are blessed, and under Zhang Xianzhong's strict order, the people in the city have been well protected, and the incense has also been retained for Yunnan.

It's just that the Tusi in Yunnan are miserable, and the Great Western Army is like locusts, grabbing a place when it arrives, and forcing the Tusi in various places to have to rebel.

But they were arrogant, and the Great Western Army was even more arrogant, and the Great Western Army did not have the habit of occupying land, so the Tusi could not find anyone even if they wanted to fight.

The whole of Yunnan was in chaos.

In Dongchuan Mansion, Sichuan, not far from the north of Yunnan, the 80,000 troops led by Yu Yongkai were nailed here, and this stay was more than two months.

Hearing that Zhang Xianzhong was in turmoil in Yunnan, Zhang Jingliang finally couldn't sit still and took a group of officers to find Yu Yongkai.

"Brother Kai, whether we fight or not, Zhang Xianzhong has made Yunnan into a miasma, it is the best time for us to attack."

In the big tent, Yu Yongkai was looking at the book of soldiers in a leisurely manner.

Seeing Zhang Jingliang and others coming, Yu Yongkai suddenly laughed and said:

"Why, you can't be idle after a few months of fighting?"

"Hehe, it's not boring to stay all the time."

Behind Zhang Jingliang, a group of generals of the Liu family laughed embarrassedly.

Yu Yongkai snorted coldly, "If it's boring, you have to stay with Lao Tzu, what do you think I'm doing here, what I'm waiting for is Zhang Xianzhong to mess up Yunnan, Yunnan is not chaotic, how can we recover it, how can we govern it when we take it back, do you want to seal some toast or something." ”

Zhang Jingliang's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to make a mysterious expression and smiled at Yu Yongkai:

"I see, the second brother's idea is to drive the thief as a soldier? So isn't the next step to be Liangguang? ”

"Hey, hey, it's good that you know, but don't go around talking nonsense, lest it spoil a big deal."

"I'll understand!" , a group of generals in the tent who learned the inside story responded excitedly.
