Lin Yi was about to send troops to capture Haicheng, when he suddenly received good news, which gave Emperor Chongzhen a headache for more than ten years, and Zhang Xianzhong, the Great Western Emperor who had been sitting in the country of abundance, was arrested. At present, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo, father and son, have been sent to Beijing.

Lin Yi slapped the table happily when he heard this, it's okay, the border trouble in the southwest has basically been lifted, and the famous Zhang Xianzhong is over like this. Gao Guiying and Gongzi Li Yan really live up to their reputations, live up to expectations, and are worthy of a great responsibility, they do a very beautiful job!

If you can't clean up this Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo this time, you will have to recruit yourself. This is a trivial matter, the war in the Qing Dynasty here is not over yet, so it is inevitable that you will be distracted, and if you don't get it right, you will lose sight of one or the other, now it's okay, don't worry about this Daxi King Zhang Xianzhong making trouble behind his back.

At this time, all the generals under his command also knew about it, and they came to congratulate Lin Yi one after another.

Especially Xiaoying and Zhezhe, Zhang Xianzhong was killed by Lin Yi's remote command, and the five bodies of admiration were thrown to the ground, two pairs of pink little hands were stretched out, I don't know how to compliment them, all the learned Chinese rhetoric, celebrity aphorisms, and searching for dry intestines are like gods.

Coupled with the deliberate welcome of Song Xiance, Hao Shaoqi, He Renlong, etc., Lin Yi was also a little fluttering, and for a while he really seemed to have become the son of Zhuge in the world and the reincarnation. I think that Zhang Liang is alive, and Zhou Yafu is just like that.

But Lin Yi was only half happy, and suddenly remembered something. Although Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo were captured, the Onishi Group was not completely in the hands of the two of them, and others did not say that this Sun Kewang was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Zhang Xianzhong's eldest son in history, after Zhang Xianzhong's death, he parted ways with Li Dingguo and walked out of two completely different paths. Li Dingguo insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty, and in the face of national righteousness, he did not hesitate to cooperate with the remnants of the Ming Dynasty and Li Zicheng, and insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty for more than ten years.

And Sun Kewang is diametrically opposed, he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and became a shameful traitor!

Before crossing this period of history, Lin Yi knew something about it through history books and film and television novels.

Therefore, thinking of this, Lin Yi felt that after capturing Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo, the Daxi Group had not yet finished counting, and only by cleaning up this Sun Kewang could this war be completely over, and as for the others, even if they were not obedient, they were all mantis arms blocking the car.

Therefore, Lin Yi immediately approached Song Xiance to discuss countermeasures.

Song Xiance used the hearsay of Li Zicheng and others, and then made a divination, feeling that Lin Yi's worries were not groundless at all.

After Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo had an accident, the entire Great Western Kingdom would inevitably fall into the hands of this person. Sun Kewang is brave and invincible, but cunning and fickle. After Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo's accident, this person is the one with the most variables in the Onishi Group, and everyone else can be lured to surrender.

However, there is only one person in the entire Onishi Group who can deal with Sun Kewang, and that is Li Dingguo. Therefore, after thinking about it, Lin Yi decided on a plan to fight poison with poison.

As soon as this plan came out, Song Xiance, Xiaoying, Zhezhe and others were a little puzzled: If this plan fails, wouldn't it be a return to the mountain?

Lin Yi smiled and tried his best to resist public opinion, but now everyone didn't dare to insist anymore.

He repaired a book, then used a seal, sealed it with fire tin, and ordered a special person to ride a fast horse, and sent it to Gao Guiying and his son Li Yan for 500 li urgently.

"What? Unconditionally let Li Dingguo go? When Gao Guiying and his son Li Yan received this letter, their faces were also full of incredulity, you must know that it took a lot of thought and a lot of risk to capture Li Dingguo alive, and it was not easy. It is also because Li Dingguo's position in the Onishi Group is extraordinary.

Gao Guiying and Gongzi Li Yan read the letter repeatedly, and repeatedly interrogated the generals who sent the letter, and after confirming that the letter was from Lin Yi, they discussed it repeatedly, and they had to comply with the order.

Li Dingguo and Zhang Xianzhong's prisoner car was on the way from Junzhou to Daming Jingshi, and on this day they arrived at the Tiger Prison Pass in Henan, which was the place where the Three Heroes fought against Lu Bu that year.

Li Guo and Li Laiheng father and son ordered Li Dingguo to be released from the prison car and taken to their camp, Li Dingguo thought that they were going to kill themselves first, and said a simple goodbye to his father in the prison car, and saw Li Guo and Li Laiheng standing without kneeling, he had long been determined to die, to be loyal to his father Zhang Xianzhong, and to serve the Great Western Kingdom.

Li Guo and Li Laiheng asked Li Dingguo if he was willing to surrender, Li Dingguo straightened his chest, raised his face, made a generous statement, swore not to surrender, and scolded Li Guo's father and son.

Li Guo gritted his teeth and said: "Count you lucky boy, if it weren't for the will of our Lord Prison to release you unconditionally, today the Great Commander will have to unload you with 8 pieces, from now on you are free, let's go."

After Li Guo finished speaking, he ordered Li Laiheng to untie the rope for him, and threw the war horse and halberd, including his armor, to him.

Li Dingguo couldn't believe that this was true, because back then, when Lin Yi caught him in the Battle of Xiangyang, he exchanged him for 640,000 taels of silver, how could he release himself unconditionally today? Could it be that the surnamed Lin is playing some kind of conspiracy?

He couldn't believe it was true, and after confirming that Li Guo and Li Laiheng had not set him up, he picked up his sword, gun and armor, flew on his horse, and rode away......

After Li Guo and Li Laiheng released Li Dingguo on Lin Yi's order, they escorted Zhang Xianzhong's prisoner car alone, left the Tiger Prison Pass the next day, and continued to march towards Yanjing, the capital of the Ming Dynasty......

Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo suddenly fell into the hands of the Ming army, which was tantamount to disaster from heaven for Daxiguo.

The news spread to the Jingshi Xijing of Daxi, which is different from the Xijing of Li Zicheng's Dashun Kingdom, which is Chang'an, Shaanxi, and Chengdu, Sichuan.

The whole country was shaken up and down in Daxi, and the emperor and the king of Anxi all fell into the hands of the Ming army, and there was no doubt that there was a major earthquake for Daxi.

Now guarding the capital division of Onishi is Zhang Xianzhong's godson Fourth Ai Nengqi, that is, the king of Dingbei in Onishi.

Zhang Xianzhong took the best imperial doctor to bring 10,000 Beijing battalion soldiers to Junzhou this time, in order to treat Li Dingguo's illness and see his son for the last time, he handed over the affairs of the family to the left and right prime ministers, and militarily handed over to his son Ai Nengqi, the king of the north.

Now that Zhang Xianzhong has not left Beijing for a month, there is such bad news, the two prime ministers and hundreds of civil and military officials on the left and right are in a mess, from the prime minister to the people of Limin, and the people are panicking.

Enage felt like the sky was falling, as if the end of the world was coming.

Over the years, Zhang Xianzhong has been like his own father, and Li Dingguo has been like his brother.

So he cried out loud and beat his chest. After being dissuaded by his cronies, he stopped his grief and immediately asked Wang Zhaolin, the prime minister of Zuo, to repair two letters, the content of these two letters was the same, sending his cronies to ride fast horses, one to Sun Kewang, the king of Pingdong, who was fighting in the Yunnan-Guizhou area, and the other to Liu Wenxiu, the king of Funan, who was fighting in the Yichang area.

There is such a big thing in the family, and the two brothers must be retrieved, preside over the government, and try to rescue his father and his brother Li Dingguo, the king of Anxi.

A few months ago, after Zhang Xianzhong made an alliance with the Qing Dynasty, in order to expand the territory, he sent three of his four sons, mainly looking at the east and northwest, which was also to respond to the call of the Qing Dynasty to cooperate with the Qing Dynasty to deal with the Ming Dynasty, and after destroying the Ming Dynasty, he would share the world equally with the Qing Dynasty in the future.

Therefore, he sent his brave and warlike son Li Dingguo out, and asked him to go out of Sichuan first to the north and then to the east, aiming at the Qin and Jin regions, and let Liu Wenxiu, the king of Funan, who was familiar with water warfare, go out of Sichuan and to the east, and fight eastward along the Yangtze River, aiming at the land of Huguang.

However, the southwest of the Great Western Kingdom is vast, and Zhang Xianzhong has long aimed at this treasure land, that is, Yunnan and Guizhou. It is too small to have a single Sichuan state, and now the Great Shun is gone, whether it is against the Ming Dynasty or the future with the Qing Dynasty, it lacks strategic depth. Take these two places and you can use them as a large rear.

And this area is beyond the reach of the Ming Dynasty, just at the door of the Great Western Kingdom, when don't you wait at this time?

Therefore, Zhang Xianzhong, who was ambitious and strategic, sent his most proud eldest son, Sun Kewang, the king of Pingdong, to lead 50,000 elite soldiers to crusade against Yungui.

Sun Kewang also really gave his father a long face, this man is all-round in humanities and martial arts, wise and brave, good at commanding troops, similar to Li Dingguo, belongs to the talent of generals, Zhang Xianzhong's most important godson is him, 4 godsons, he ranks the boss, and he is called a wall when he fights, and a pair of special weapons have no opponents all over the world.

This time, the unified army fought in Guizhou, and within a month, the whole province of Guizhou was taken. As soon as the old bureaucrats of the old Ming army of this generation heard that Sun Kewang, the king of Pingdong in Daxi, was coming, they either fled from the wind or opened the door to surrender, so everywhere the Daxi army went, it was simply invincible and unstoppable.

After taking Guizhou, Sun Kewang waved his army westward and entered Yunnan to fight, but in Yunnan he encountered a fierce opponent.

That is Mu Tianbo, the king of Yunnan, mentioning that this king of Yunnan is very powerful and has a very high reputation, don't look at him to divide Yunnan, but it can be said to be deep-rooted, because his ancestor is very powerful, that is, Mu Ying.

When Zhu Yuanzhang fought the world, he accepted this Mu Ying as his godson, known as His Royal Highness the Golden Hammer, given the surname Zhu, called Zhu Muying, one of the founding fathers of the Ming Dynasty, and his achievements were high.

Therefore, after Taizu won the world, he named him the king of Yunnan, and the prince was hereditary and seized Yunnan. In this Mu Tianbo's generation, the Ming Dynasty declined, but their family was extremely wealthy, and their wealth rivaled the country.

And this Mu Tianbo has liked martial arts since he was a child, and their family is also rich, so he has invited many gentlemen and martial arts teachers to teach him to practice literature and martial arts. In terms of writing, he learned very generally, but his martial arts were very attained, and he stepped down immediately, with long fists and short fights, bows, knives, stones, horses, and arrows, and was proficient in all eighteen kinds of martial arts.

He is especially good at making a copper hammer with a line, and the head of the enemy is taken in the army of 10,000 horses.

The Ming Dynasty now hanged himself by Emperor Chongzhen, the crown prince retreated to the second line, Lin Yi became the supervisor of the Ming Dynasty, and Mu Tianbo did not pay attention to these major affairs of the dynasty.

Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng are also related to the Manchu Tartars outside the country, no matter how they toss, Mu Tianbo doesn't care, but whoever wants to move his Yunnan, he will never agree.

Therefore, when Sun Kewang's army advanced into Yunnan, Mu Tianbo also gathered tens of thousands of Tusi troops and fought with Sun Kewang in Qujing.

The two sides have won and lost each other, at this time, the bad news came, Sun Kewang felt that the world was spinning for a while, his father Zhang Xianzhong and his brother Li Dingguo, the king of Anxi, had an accident, how could this happen? I have to return to Beijing immediately!

Therefore, Sun Kewang withdrew from Yunnan with his army, took a shortcut to Sichuan, and marched day and night at an expedited pace of 500 miles......

At this time, Liu Wenxiu, who was fighting in Yichang, also received a letter from Jingshi.

The king of Funan did not take prisoners, and after leading tens of thousands of troops out of Sichuan, he went down the river and fought all the way to Yichang, and the Ming army along the way suffered defeats and did not dare to match it.

At this time, Liu Wenxiu got the bad news, knowing that such a major change had occurred in the court, he immediately shrank his troops and returned to Beijing by water with the main force.

After Sun Kewang returned to Beijing, he immediately presided over the government as the crown prince, and everyone else also had the backbone.

Sun Kewang, Liu Wenxiu, Ai Nengqi and the two prime ministers began to discuss countermeasures to rescue Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo.

Sun Kewang was furious, "What else are you discussing?" Immediately pour the power of Daxi, fight to the death with Daming, and avenge his father and King Anxi! ”

But Sun Kewang's strategy, Funan King Liu Wenxiu and the right prime minister Yan Ximing did not agree, because the Ming Dynasty played the banner of those who follow me to prosper, and those who oppose me die, they met with the Ming Dynasty in this way, on the surface it was finally Zhang Xianzhong and Daxi, but in fact, they ignored the life and death of Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo, and even accelerated the death of Zhang Xianzhong and Li Dingguo.

But Sun Kewang is in power, and the decision he makes, including Liu Wenxiu and Yan Ximing, only feels that they have thoughts in their hearts and dare not disagree.

But Sun Kewang said very well, he was not in a hurry to send troops, but discussed with Zuo Prime Minister Wang Zhaolin and others about moving the capital, and now that the Ming army has entered Sichuan, he feels that Xijing can not hold it, and plans to move the capital of Daxi to Guiyang.

But before the time to move the capital, Li Dingguo came back, and Xijing's civil and military affairs were stunned and delighted after receiving the report, but Sun Kewang's face was full of murderous anger, and he stood up with a sigh.

"Li Dingguo will inevitably betray Daxi, take refuge in Daming, and someone will take him down for me!"

In this way, Li Dingguo was tied up, he didn't expect that the Ming army didn't kill him, and now his own people want to tie him up and cut off his head, of course he doesn't accept it.

"Why did you kill me?"

Sun Kewang sneered: "Li Dingguo, do you still need to ask?" You were caught by Daming and came back safe and sound, why didn't your father come back? It must be that you betrayed Daxi, surrendered to Daming and came to deceive the city, and you are innocent! ”

Li Dingguo was so angry that his face turned red: "I was wronged!" I, Li Dingguo, am by no means a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, nor am I a traitor seeking glory, how could I betray Daxi? My father is so kind to me, how can I betray my father? I can kill the enemy and prove my innocence! ”

This is Liu Wenxiu who has the courage to intercede for Li Dingguo: "Big brother, the second brother will never betray his father and the emperor, betray Daxi and join the Ming Dynasty, this matter must be cautious, if you kill a good person by mistake, wouldn't it be bitter and hateful?"

But Sun Kewang stretched his face, looking like he didn't recognize his six relatives, not only did he not give Liu Wenxiu face, but also threw down a sentence, who is pleading for Li Dingguo, and will be punished for Li Dingguo's comradeship.

Liu Wenxiu didn't dare to speak.

It turns out that it is not a monolith in the Daxi Group, Zhang Xianzhong's 4 godsons are divided into two factions, the eldest Sun Kewang and the fourth Ai Nengqi are one faction, the second Li Dingguo and the third Liu Wenxiu are one faction, usually Sun Kewang is secretly jealous of Li Dingguo, afraid that Li Dingguo's merits are greater than him, and his official position is higher than him, which will affect his status.

Therefore, he formed a gang and excluded dissidents, except for Ai Nengqi who was his sworn friend, four of the generals of the five armies were Sun Kewang's sworn friends.

Liu Wenxiu is in favor of Li Dingguo, and now that Zhang Xianzhong is born, the internal contradictions are exposed.

Seeing that Li Dingguo was about to lose his head, Liu Wenxiu led people to kill the executioner, rescued Li Dingguo, and went out of Daxi to Beijing, gathering more than 20,000 people and horses to occupy Yichang, and since then the Daxi Army has been divided into two branches.

After Gao Guiying and Gongzi Li Yan got the report, they praised their Lin Daren for their superior skills, which was equivalent to dividing and disintegrating the remnants of Daxi's forces, and they stepped up their march with 100,000 Ming troops......

After Lin Yi released Li Dingguo, the camp of the Ming army outside Haicheng, immediately dispatched troops to prepare to attack Haicheng.

At this time, Geng Zhongming, the defender of Haicheng, asked to talk to Lin Yi at the head of the city, and Lin Yi also gave him face, the soldiers came to the city, there was no siege, and surrounded by the guards and soldiers, Lin Yi appeared on the moat outside the southern city.

But at this time, it was not Geng Zhongming, the Huaishun king of the Qing Dynasty, who was really talking to Lin Yi at this time, but another big traitor, Fan Wencheng.

"Lord Lin, the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty have been fighting for many years, the victory and defeat have not been divided, and the people are not happy. I don't know what Lord Lin thinks? ”

As soon as Fan Wencheng's words came out, he made Lin Yi's soldiers angry.

What the? The Qing Dynasty still dares to mention peace talks? Last time, you repaired the plank road openly, secretly Chen Cang, sold dog meat with a sheep's head, and negotiated peace on the surface, but actually sent assassins, almost killing Lord Lin, and now you still have the face to mention this?

Therefore, they were furious one by one, and they couldn't wait to attack the city immediately and kill these Manchu Tartars and traitors.

But there are thousands of people in the family, the master is one person, and with Lin Yi here, no one dares to speak falsely, only dare to hold back secretly.

But Lin Yi was not angry at all, and smiled indifferently and said to Fan Wencheng at the head of the city: "Peace talks are okay, but the terms that have been drawn up by this prison country cannot be changed by a single word on them, as long as Dolgon signs and seals them, Lin will withdraw immediately."

After Lin Yi finished speaking, he took the bow and arrow, tied the terms negotiated with Hong Chengchou to the shaft of the arrow, opened the bow like a full moon, and with a whoosh, the arrow broke through the air and flew up to the city head through the moat, and with a snap, it was nailed to the wooden pillar of the city gate tower behind Fan Wencheng, and the frightened Fan Wencheng's face wrinkled.

A soldier took down the arrow and handed the letter on the arrow to Fan Wencheng.

Fan Wencheng opened these terms and looked at them, and promised with a mouthful: "Okay, these terms have all been agreed to in the middle hall, please ask Lord Lin to give me the next three days to present the regent in front of the Jingshi, and bring it back with the seal after using it."

Lin Yi didn't expect Fan Wencheng to agree very happily, so he nodded and said: "Okay, this prison country will allow you for three days, if there is any change after three days, this prison country will bombard Haicheng, attack Shengjing, and kill you chickens and dogs!"

In this way, Lin Yi collected his troops and returned to the city, and Song Xiance said worriedly: "My lord, this is likely to be a delaying tactic by the Tartars."

Lin Yi said with a smile: "What Mr. said is right, but this prison country has its own strategy, and it will definitely take Haicheng and Shengjing within three days."
