Chapter 445: A New Beginning

In the deep mountains on the border between Guangxi and Yunnan, a force of about 20,000 people fled in a panic, everyone throwing away their armor and looking like they were in a panic.

Zhang Qiang's war eagle is still paying attention to the dynamics of the war on the territory of Guangxi Prefecture.

Fifty miles away, an army of about 80,000 troops, which was also tired, but had more cavalry, and carried elephants, mules, horses, and pack horses, which accounted for more than half of this force, was also marching rapidly, and the troops were constantly chasing.

It can be seen from the fluttering flag that this unit is Li Dingguo's troops.

Li Dingguo was very angry, someone dared to sneak attack his base camp, after he knew, he took the troops to withdraw from Yunguizhou overnight, gave up some cities in a row, gave up hundreds of miles of territory, shrunk defense, left a small number of soldiers and horses to garrison, and returned with a large army.

With a blow from the side, Kong Youde's troops were scattered, and he pursued for days, and the troops ran away from 30,000 soldiers, still pursuing, with 80,000 soldiers and horses, and kept chasing Kong Youde.

And in the other direction, his general with 50,000 soldiers and horses is also in pursuit of Shang Kexi's troops, Shang Kexi's 50,000 troops, in Yunnan to lay several villages in a row, two county seats, was defeated by a new army brigade left behind by Li Dingguo, and then was organized by the general of the left-behind troops to pursue, he did not have many soldiers and horses, at this moment there were only 5,000 soldiers and horses left around him, seeing that it was not easy to escape the pursuit of the enemy no further, he turned around and plunged into the deep mountains of Yungui.

Shang Kexi threw away all the troops he had received from his good brother Kong Youde, and then ran to the deep mountains of Yungui.

It can be said that it is completely unlucky.

He didn't expect that he hadn't seen it for a few years, and the army of Yongli Daming was like the Huaxia Army, using firearms, and he couldn't raise his head when he was beaten, and his previous application of firearms was vulnerable in front of the new army of Yongli Daming Li Dingguo under the guidance of the instructor of the Huaxia Army.

And in Guilin Mansion, Feng Quan was also deeply worried, he didn't expect that he just went back to discuss with Hong Chengchou, and then came back, Guangxi Prefecture has changed greatly, the once strong Kong Youde's power has now disappeared, and the 300,000 troops brought by Mang Gurtai are now only 50,000 remnants of the defeated army who are quite afraid of firearms.

Fleeing about 780,000 troops, captured and missing 60,000 to 70,000 troops, Mang Gurtai sent the existing collected troops to investigate, knowing that after the Southern Ming army withdrew, it reoccupied the county seat of Yongfu, and then recovered ten of the fifteen county towns lost before, limited to the surrounding areas of Guilin Mansion and the north and west, the county seat in the east, and the county seat in the southThe Ming army did not give up, but sent troops to guard it.

Although there are not many troops, Mang Gurtai does not dare to fight at all, who knows if he provokes the Southern Ming Army again, and the Southern Ming Army will come to attack with another 100,000 army, so at this point, Mang Gurtai can only retreat in Guilin Mansion, rubbing with Gao Zhixiang all day long, wanting to completely gain control of Guilin Mansion, but Gao Zhixiang has already received Kong Youde's order to withdraw his troops back, and he controls Guilin Mansion to the death, not giving him the slightest chance.

Mang Gurtai had to discuss with Feng Quan, who came back, Feng Quan was helpless, for Kong Youde, even the imperial court had to be respectful, who made him the prince?

After the Qing army entered the customs, they relied on them to be the vanguard, and they swept the entire north and south of the river, and now the situation is not as good as people, Dolgon still wants to use Kong Youde's gang, and he Feng Quan is also too offended by Kong Youde, who can only report to Hong Chengchou.

With a stroke of the pen, Hong Chengchou transferred back the tens of thousands of troops of the Ma Degong brothers, and continued to use the Ma Degong brothers to contain Kong Youde's troops, and at the same time strengthen the forces of Mang Gurtai.

A few days later, the Ma Degong brothers returned to Guilin Mansion before Kong Youde, and the two of them sighed, but after this round, their brothers were afraid that Kong Youde would be deeply offended, digging the foot of the wall, digging up Kong Youde's 20,000 troops, and then Shang Kexi poached Kong Youde's 30,000 troops.

Interpersonal relationships in Guangxi have become complicated.

Their brothers had no other way to go except to rely on Feng Quan to fall to the imperial court at the same time, and to the representative of the imperial court, Mang Gurtai.

Of course, there is another way to go, anyway, to Yongli Daming, and then lead the troops to Huguang to cut the alleged king in which situation is more complicated, and in front of the officials of Yongli Daming, he is doing the same thing as He Tengjiao who listens to the tune and does not listen to the announcement.

However, the situation in Huguang is much more complicated than that in Guangxi Prefecture, where the rebel armies from all walks of life attack each other, fight with the Qing army, fight with the Yongli Ming Dynasty, and at the same time cooperate with each other to fight the Qing Dynasty together, and there is a Huaxia army that firmly occupies the Yuezhou Mansion, where is the hard stone that no force wants to touch, so although Zhang Qiang deliberately let go of the Yuezhou Mansion, withdrew the people and a large number of troops, and left only some garrison troops, but the forces of all parties still did not dare to attack the idea of Yuezhou Mansion.

After Longwu Nanming knew that Su Zhengqing had defeated the Qing army, Longwu Zhu Yujian and Su Guansheng immediately sent two troops, one coastal to sweep the remaining cities of the Qing army, recapture the occupied territory, and advance to the coast of Guangxi Prefecture, until the Yunnan border, and then straightened up and began to stabilize the territory occupied.

The other fought from south to north, and then fought west along the border line of Guangxi and Guangdong, recovering many times the territory occupied by the Qing army's counteroffensive, and then passed through Liuzhou Prefecture, continued to fight westward, until it reached the border of Yunnan Prefecture and Guizhou Prefecture, and then began to garrison to stabilize the border.

Occupied most of the territory in the south of Guangxi Prefecture.

Guangxi Prefecture only left a few county towns and some places near Yunnan Prefecture on the Southwest Middle Road not to occupy, because intelligence showed that Kong Youde was engaged in a tug-of-war with Li Dingguo's troops there, where Li Dingguo had occupied, and Kong Youde continued to bypass the surrounding occupied county towns and flee to Guilin Prefecture.

Li Dingguo went all the way, and did not attack the city occupied by the Southern Ming army, but chased all the way, and gradually approached Liuzhou Mansion and Guilin Mansion.

The territory to the south of Guilin Province was occupied by the Qing army of Mang Gurtai.

Guangxi Prefecture is so clearly occupied by the tripartite forces, forming a scene of tripartite hegemony.

Su Zhengqing, who got Li Dingguo to lead the army to chase after Kong Youde's department, had to gather 40,000 new army troops, 10,000 soldiers, and 10,000 people, and drove towards Li Dingguo's department, and the Southern Ming army occupied most of the territory of Guangxi Prefecture, of course, he didn't want Li Dingguo to take away the people of the Ming Dynasty, this matter can be big or small, but in terms of territory and the face of the imperial court, both sides may not give in to each other.

A few days later, Li Dingguo's army came to the city of Liuzhou, Kong Youde's troops fled into Guilin Mansion under the response of Gao Zhixiang, and Li Dingguo's troops stopped under the city of Liuzhou Mansion, their supplies had been exhausted, and they could no longer pursue Kong Youde's troops.

At the same time, Kong Youde fled into the tall Guilin Mansion in the city, and there was a new army, and the Qing army of nearly 70,000 troops to protect, he came from afar, the soldiers were tired, and Li Dingguo was not a reckless person, so he stayed under the city of Liuzhou Mansion, and then he ran into Liuzhou Mansion with his own soldiers to catch up with Wang Deren.

A day later, Su Zhengqing, who came in a hurry, led an army of 60,000 to come, stationed outside the city, and brought his own soldiers into the city to meet Li Dingguo, and Wang Deren made peace.

In front of several people was the question of how to deal with Li Dingguo's cross-border attack on the Qing army.
