Chapter 441: Li Dingguo and Zheng Damu are defeated
Mu Tianbo, the king of Yunnan, was ordered by Lin Yi to lead an army of 100,000 from eastern Yunnan to Guizhou to fight against Li Dingguo.
At this time, the whole territory of Guizhou has been occupied by Li Dingguo, listening to the army coming, Li Dingguo led more than 100,000 Western troops to welcome, Mu Tianbo is brave and good at fighting, and the resourceful Song Xiance made suggestions, plus Li Zicheng's old department and white pole soldiers to help the situation, so this road of soldiers and horses is like a bamboo, a series of conquered more than a dozen states and counties, beheaded Li Dingguo's general Zhang Hualong, and the soldiers approached Guiyang Mansion.
Li Dingguo was furious and personally commanded the army to fight a decisive battle with Mu Tianbo in Guiyang.
Outside the city of Guiyang, the two armies set up a battlefield, and the soldiers were numerous, covering the sky and the sun.
Mu Tianbo vs. Li Dingguo. Li Dingguo flew up and down with a Fang Tianhalberd, Mu Tianbo felt that he was not Li Dingguo's opponent before, so he threw out the copper hammer in a few moments.
The hammer head of the copper hammer is three times larger than the shot put on the sports field in later generations, and the sound of the hammer hitting Li Dingguo's face in a straight line.
Li Dingguo hurriedly used the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand to block, the hammer head was smashed on the machine pole, a loud noise, sparks splashed, and Li Dingguo's tiger mouth was numb, Li Dingguo didn't expect that he still had a hidden weapon, he didn't dare to underestimate it, and the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand danced like flying, fighting the king of Yunnan.
But Li Dingguo's Fang Tianhua halberd is far less than Mu Tianbo's meteor flying hammer combat radius, so Li Dingguo can only defend as an attack, after a few combinations, Mu Tianbo flew another hammer, Li Dingguo still raised the halberd to parry, but this time the halberd did not touch the hammer, but touched the chain behind the hammer.
The meteor hammer, which was originally walking in a straight line, changed direction this time and slapped at the back of Li Dingguo's head.
Thanks to Li Dingguo's quick reaction, he hurriedly came to hide his head, and lowered his head suddenly, but it was still a little slower, and the meteor flying hammer swept onto his helmet, and with a click, the helmet on the top of the helmet was blown away, and the helmet also rolled to the ground.
Mu Tianbo saw that Li Dingguo was defeated, and urged the horse to chase, but Li Dingguo also had a move, and it was useless to have a four-edged silver armor and a treasure carving bow behind him, he saw that Mu Tianbo was chasing after him, and secretly hung up the halberd, took off the bow and arrow and added the string, and as soon as he turned around, the wolf tooth arrow flew out with a whoosh.
Mu Tianbo was about to slap Li Dingguo under the horse with a hammer, but when he turned around, an arrow came too suddenly, he couldn't dodge, he was shot in the chest by an arrow, and the heart guard was shattered with a click, and the arrow penetrated through the armor and drilled into it an inch deep, so painful that he screamed and turned the horse away.
This time, it was time for Li Dingguo to chase him, destroy the horse in a circle, shake the halberd, chase and kill in the back, and Mu Tianbo's soldiers and horses were defeated.
When Li Dingguo was chasing and killing, someone suddenly came to report that the Ming army had taken Guiyang Mansion, it turned out that when Li Dingguo and Mu Tianbo were fighting, Song Xiance took the men and horses around the back to start, and suddenly attacked the city, tens of thousands of Ming troops killed the city with a charge, and the white pole soldiers climbed up to the head of the city with flying spears, and broke through Guiyang City in one fell swoop.
This time, Li Dingguo was killed and defeated......
At the same time, great progress has also been made in the southern front of Guangxi. Guangxi was originally under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, but because Li Dingguo took refuge in Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhilong ordered Li Dingguo to lead his troops south, and the rebels in Guangdong marched westward.
Now Lin Yi sent a 100,000 Ming army as the Southern Route Army, under the leadership of Gao Guiying and Li Yan, only one battle took Tianzhou, that is, the area of the white city in later generations, killed Yang Geng, the general of the Zheng family's army, and annihilated more than 10,000 rebels, including thousands of Li Dingguo's Great Western Army, and the Ming army approached Nanning and Liuzhou.
Commanding the battle here is Zheng Damu, Zheng Damu is in his 20s this year, a young man with all-round talents in civil and military affairs, he studied under the Confucian master Qian Qianyi, who is famous for his wife in the Qinglou and one of the eight Yans of Qin Huai, Liu Ruis, Zheng Damu's Chinese culture is better, and martial arts are of course family traditions, because Zheng Damu's father Zheng Zhilong, uncle Zheng Zhihu, Zheng Hongkui and others are all martial arts experts, so Zheng Damu has practiced a good martial arts after returning from the cherry blossom country.
Although Zheng Damu did not approve of his father Zheng Zhilong establishing himself as the king and breaking with the Ming Dynasty, but the father and son were naturally connected by blood, since they had reached this point, as a son, he had to fight for his father's future.
This time, Li Dingguo's cooperation with Zheng Zhilong increased greatly, and Zheng Zhilong appointed him to go to Guangxi as Li Dingguo's deputy to assist him in the war with the Ming army.
The Ming army was menacing, the start was unfavorable, but Nanning and Liuzhou he decided that he had to hold, now the town of Nanning is the general Zeng De, there are 10,000 elite soldiers, the town of Liuzhou is the general Shi Xian, this is the brother of the great commander Shi Lang.
Shi Lang is now a red and purple figure under Zheng Zhilong, the young man is twenty-six years old this year, but he is young and promising, only three years older than Zheng Chenggong, and he and his uncle Shi Fu led the main force of Zheng's army to fight against the Ming army in the Yangtze River Valley, and made great achievements.
Shi Xian is not ambiguous, he is the leader of the army at a young age, and he also garrisons Liuzhou with 10,000 soldiers and horses, and now Zheng Chenggong wants to supervise the 20,000 troops and fight to the death with the Ming army.
Zheng Chenggong suffered a defeat, and his power was thin from 20,000 to 100,000, and Li Dingguo's troops were defeated and took care of themselves, so he had to let these two places turn each other into horns against the Ming army.
But Li Yan lived up to his reputation, and after taking Tianzhou, the troops were divided into two routes, he and Gao Guiying each led a group of men and horses, and attacked Liuzhou and Nanning at the same time. In this way, Zheng Chenggong's soldiers and horses in these two places can't care about each other again.
In desperation, Zheng Chenggong had no choice but to order the two generals to stick to the city and wait for help.
But Shi De is okay, and he obeys the young marshal of the Zheng family. Led 10,000 troops to defend Nanning, widened and deepened the moat, strengthened the city defense, and refused to fight, Gao Guiying took the generals Zu Keyong and Liu Fangliang to lead tens of thousands of horses to attack for a few days.
But Liuzhou is different, the guard general Shi Xian is a Leng Touqing, he is only two years younger than Zheng Chenggong, and his brother Shi Lang is also a young hero, his father Shi Daxuan is an honest farmer, as far as his two sons, one is more promising than the other, and they have all practiced good martial arts, and they have won battles over the years, especially by Zheng Zhilong.
Born from Fujian, conquered Guangdong and conquered Guangxi, Shi Xian repeatedly made military exploits, and conquered all battles, because he was just in his early 20s, and he had no one in his eyes, when Li Yan took the general Yuan Zongdi and the Mongolian iron cavalry and camel artillery team to attack Liuzhou, he was a little disobedient to the young marshal Zheng Damu.
Let one of his lieutenants lead 5,000 troops to defend the city, and he personally led 5,000 soldiers and horses out of the city to meet the enemy.
As a result, there was a big battle outside the city of Liuzhou, the Ming general Yuan Zong's first pair of iron whips and Shi Xian's three-pointed two-edged knife were inseparable, Li Yan saw that there was an opportunity, and ordered the camel artillery team to attack, these mobile artillery mounts were too powerful, the camel cannonballs were more powerful than the machine guns of later generations, the firing speed was fast, the explosion was powerful, and a charge would attack the city, and the soldiers on the city would suffer heavy losses.
Shi Xian didn't dare to fight and hurriedly returned to defense, but Yuan Zongdi chased after him with a double whip, and the result was that Shi Xian was defeated into the city, Yuan Zongdi and Li Yan also entered the city with Mongolian flag iron cavalry, a street battle, Shi Xian was finally outnumbered, and finally fled with hundreds of remnants of the defeated army.
Shi Xian, who lost the city, ran to Nanning Mansion to see Zheng Damu to ask for guilt, Zheng Damu was strong-blooded, furious, and wanted to kill Shi Xian, and his generals pleased, Zheng Damu beat him with eighty military sticks, and his skin was open, if it wasn't for Shi Xian's youth and martial arts, he would have died under the military sticks.
This is the first time in his life that he has been beaten, lying on the bed for ten days before he can get out of bed to move, this time he has a long memory, this young marshal is too powerful, and at the same time he regrets that he is too arrogant.
At the same time, he also holds a grudge, didn't I Shi Xian just lose a city? As for beating me to death like this? What a crime, how much credit have I made for your Zheng family before, and how many cities have I defeated? And my brother and my uncle, born and died to fight for your Zheng army, even your father, Zheng Zhilong, the king of Ningnan, has to respect our Shi family a little, and now your kid has just left school, so he doesn't talk about it at all, not relying on your father's reputation, what the are you? What is the ability of the little cubs raised by the Chinese cherry blossom country!
The more Shi Xian spoke, the more intense he became, and when he said that he was sad, he said that he was disrespectful, and when it reached Zheng Damu's ears, Zheng Damu was furious, and immediately sent the general Zeng De to mention Shi Xian to ask him again.
But when he arrived at Shi Xian's camp, Shi Xian didn't even accept Zheng Damu, how could he put Zeng De in his eyes? As a result, the two sides fought each other, although he was brave in battle and strong in martial arts, but his injuries did not heal, which was Zeng's opponent, it may have been due to accidental injury, Zeng De stabbed Shi Xian's head off, and Zeng De was also scared after calming down. Kneeling in front of Zheng Damu with Shi Xian's head to plead guilty, Zheng Damu disagreed, this kid should have died a long time ago, kill well, kill right!
After the Ming army occupied Liuzhou, the army moved south, Gao Guiying and Li Yan's two armies joined Nanning, Zheng Damu suffered from the enemy on his back, and 10,000 horses could not resist it no matter what, so he had to retreat to Wuzhou, and the Ming army followed all the way.
Li Dingguo was defeated in Guiyang, and he couldn't stay in Guizhou, after the arrow wound healed, Mu Tianbo pursued all the way, and Li Dingguo retreated to Guilin. Mu Tianbo chased to Guilin, Li Dingguo was forced to retreat again, and then retreated to Wuzhou, where he joined forces with Zheng Damu's soldiers, and the two generals were added to a 1560,000 army, which only lasted for three months in Guangxi and Guizhou provinces, and now there are less than half of the men and horses left, only about 50,000 people.
The second general felt that the Ming army was not good at coming this time, and it was beyond the strength of the two of them, so they hurriedly asked Zheng Zhilong, the king of Ningnan, for help, but at this time, Zheng Zhilong was in full swing to carry out another major event......
