673 is not necessarily an opportunity

However, when they saw the Messenger's demeanor, everyone secretly said that something was wrong in their hearts. If it is good news, how can the Messenger look frightened!

The sycophants that had already been saved in the stomach suddenly couldn't be filmed; Those who still wanted to grab official positions also died down; And the smile on his face also froze on his face, and finally disappeared without a trace.

They all wondered how bad news could come from a good situation.

"Report!" Seeing that King Talong was at the city gate, the messenger did not dare to collide with the king's driver, and when he was far away, he rolled his saddle and fell off his horse, almost crawling and rushing closer, and shouted loudly, "The emperor of the Ming Kingdom drove his own expedition to Yunnan, and the Tusi coalition army was defeated. My Dongwu army is also completely annihilated......"

This news was unthinkable to everyone here, and King Ta Long opened his mouth wide in surprise, revealing an incredulous expression and asked, "What, the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is driving in person?" How could it be that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom had come to such a far frontier land? ”

He really couldn't understand why the Dongwu army couldn't defeat the Ming army in the past, but in the end it occupied Mengyang and Mubang?

It is because the Ming court didn't care about these frontiers at all, so Dongwu will win without victory, and the Ming Kingdom will be defeated without defeat!

But now, is the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom full of food? How did you come to such a wild place?

King Ta Long felt that this news, no matter how understood from that angle, seemed to be fake. Reason, however, told him that it was impossible for the messenger to tell him false news. Especially with such a major news, it is impossible to be fake.

Thinking so, without waiting for the messenger to reply, he shouted again and asked, "What about Tai Tai Tun, but what about the others?" ”

If you want to know the details, you must not understand it by relying on the messenger, so you can only ask the henchmen and generals he sent out, so that you can know what is going on in Yunnan?

"Back to the king!" The messenger hurriedly replied, "General Taytayton has fled back and is on his way back to Ava. He was worried that the emperor of the Ming Kingdom would take the imperial expedition in person, so he first asked the villain to report to the king urgently, hoping that the king would prepare accordingly. said that the current emperor of the Ming Kingdom is a villain who will repay him, and he is likely to lead the army to attack my cave! ”

Obviously, Tai Tai Tun did not tell the truth, and did not dare to tell him about his captivity. Therefore, when he reported the situation to King Talong, he tampered with the situation.

When King Talong heard this, he was stunned again. Yunnan is already the frontier of the Ming Kingdom, a wild place, and Dongwu is even farther away for the Ming Kingdom. The Emperor of the Ming Kingdom will still come to fight Dongwu, how is this possible!

At this moment, he suddenly felt a little worried. This bad news made him sober up a lot.

In the past, the Yunnan generals of the Ming Kingdom, Liu Wei and Deng Zilong, all killed Ava directly, and the Ava guards were so frightened that they directly opened the door and surrendered. Just because of such a thing, King Ta Long was a little worried that he was too close to the Ming Kingdom before moving the capital, and he didn't dare to use Ava as the capital anymore.

Now, if the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom drove to conquer Dongwu in person, the elite level of the Ming army and the number of the Ming army would definitely be far from being comparable to Liu Wei and Deng Zilong.

At the thought of this, King Talong's forehead began to sweat. I didn't expect that the old man was old, would he still suffer the most significant setback, and his reputation would be ruined?

"The dignified Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, sitting on the four seas and the territory is boundless, would he mind what happened in such a frontier place?" King Ta Long thought for a while, but still said in disbelief, "No matter how much you want to repay you, it is impossible for you to personally conquer my Dongwu, right?" This is something that has never happened before, even if their Taizu and Cheng Ancestor have never done anything like this! ”

If the messenger told the Emperor that he would send a general to attack Dongwu, then he would probably believe it, but if the Emperor of the State of Explanation personally came to such a poor place, would he have nothing to do? Isn't it fun to have 3,000 beauties in the harem? Crazy, right?

The courtiers on the side also heard the sweat on their foreheads, and they didn't know what to say, when suddenly, they heard a voice shouting loudly: "Father, my Dongwu is extremely powerful, if the Ming Dog Emperor dares to come to my Dongwu, just take this opportunity to destroy the Ming Dog Emperor, swallow the Ming Kingdom, and achieve the immortal reputation of the father!" ”

This is really a bit harsh to hear, if it were an ordinary courtier, King Ta Long would probably be angry. However, it was his son who said this, so King Talong turned his head to look at his son, who had spoken generously beside him, and his face was gloomy.

Before he could say anything, he heard his son Pindari continue to speak impassionedly: "I have been under my father's policy of recuperation for nearly twenty years, and my national strength has become more and more prosperous, and it is no longer comparable to the past. As long as the Ming Dog Emperor dares to come to my Dongwu, they are not familiar with the terrain, my Dongwu Mountain is high and dense, and there are ambushes everywhere, and Erchen doesn't believe it, he can escape the ambush with a Ming Dog Emperor? Otherwise, my Dongwu army can use the terrain to detour behind the Ming army and cut off the Ming grain route, so that the more the Ming army comes, the faster it will die......"

Listening to his son there, talking passionately and generously, King Ta Long listened and listened, and his face suddenly slowly became beautiful again.

He suddenly thought in his heart: Yes, is it necessary for him to be so afraid of the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom? Just based on the terrain on Dongwu's side, if the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom really wants to drive the expedition in person, it will be a good thing!

The emperor of the Ming Kingdom led the troops to come, and the more troops he led, the more he asked for grain and grass. As long as the north of Dongwu is strong, the Ming army has no grain and grass to plunder, and can only transport grain and grass from Yunnan. On the Yunnan side, there has just been a war that has affected the whole of Yunnan, and the grain and grass must also be tense.

In this way, as his clever son said, as long as Dongwu's side uses the terrain and topography to rob the grain and grass of the Ming Kingdom, then the more the Ming army comes, the faster it will collapse! Even if the Ming army has a combat power, it will not be able to play ten percent at that time!

Thinking like this, King Long's eyes slowly lit up. If the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom really led the army to attack Dongwu, this may really be an opportunity for King Talong to reach the pinnacle of his life!

Thinking like this, his face looked much better, and he immediately gave an order: "Go, go back to the discussion!" ”

The so-called general is the courage of soldiers, and in the same way, the attitude of King Talong will also greatly affect his courtiers. With the generous statement of the prince and the optimism of the king, these courtiers thought that it was very reasonable, and they were not so afraid that the emperor of the Ming Kingdom would really have to conquer Dongwu in person, so they began to think about this matter in their hearts, and followed him to the palace of Ava to discuss the matter.

This is a big deal, after King Long replaced the head of the hunting business, all the civil and military generals under his command have arrived, and they are all together, all of them.

As soon as King Ta Long sat down, his son Ping Dali took the first step, flashed out, and said to King Ta Long: "Father, my son thinks that if the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom dares to attack my Dongwu, this is a good opportunity given to me by God, as long as I defeat the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, even if I Dongwu does not send troops to attack the Ming Kingdom, it will be enough to shock the Quartet and become the overlord of one side!" ”

Speaking of this, he paused, took the opportunity to glance at the civil officials and military generals, and then continued to speak: "Besides, whether the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is defeated or captured, it is enough to make the Ming Kingdom cold. In this way, when the father put forward the claim of territorial property, thinking that the Ming country is there, he will naturally not be stingy. ”

Hearing him say so emotionally, some of the courtiers who came temporarily, and did not listen to what he said at the city gate, they were a little worried and came out and said: "My king, what the prince said is indeed reasonable, but this is on the basis of defeating the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, so that it will bring me enough benefits to Dongwu." But if it's ...... If you can't defeat the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, the army will be overwhelmed, and Dongwu will be in danger! ”

When Ping Dali heard this, he glanced at him contemptuously, and then turned to King Ta Long and said, "Father, my son is willing to lead the troops to fight to the death with the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom." If you can't win, come and see you! ”

After all, King Ta Long is no longer a hot-blooded young man, and he is still quite cautious when facing decisions. After pondering for a while, he did not agree to Pindari, but consulted the important ministers of the court, and after comprehensive consideration, he issued an order to prepare the civil and military officials for war, and at the same time urgently ordered Tai Tai Tun to hurry back to Ava and inform him of the details of the Ming army, so that he could make a final decision.

As soon as this decree was issued, the entire Donggo began to prepare for battle. Where the will is reached, chickens fly and dogs jump, conscription orders, pull strong ding, and ask all tribes to contribute money, food, and people.

Three days later, Tai Tai Tun rushed to Ava City in embarrassment, and did not go anywhere else, but went directly to the palace to meet the king of Talong, as soon as they met, he cried loudly: "My king, the last general should die, the loss of troops will weaken my national prestige, weaken the name of my king, let the emperor of the Ming Kingdom look down on my king, the last general should die......"

"That's enough, what's going on?" King Ta Long asked with a gloomy face.

At this time, when Ping Dali heard the news, he also rushed over, and when he saw this scene, he also shouted to Taitai: "How many men and horses did the emperor of the Ming Kingdom bring, and how is the combat power?" ”

Tai Tai Tun didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Forest Army led by the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is indeed elite, and there are hundreds of cannons alone. There were many Ming troops, and they took the opportunity to pounce on them. What's more, those Tusi soldiers still rebelled at this time. Otherwise...... Otherwise, my family may not have been defeated! ”

At this point, he did not wait for King Talong to speak, but immediately added: "What the sin will say is absolutely true. Sha Dingzhou, the leader of the positive and negative alliance in the Yunnan Tusi Alliance, Wu Bikui is outside the palace, and they can be sent to verify! ”

As soon as he heard this, King Ta Long naturally would not fail to pass it on, and the two Tusi who had escaped by luck appeared in front of King Ta Long.
