The group walked out of the tent, galloped for ten miles, and then came to the foot of Wumeng Mountain.

It was a cold winter, and the undulating Wumeng Mountain was already snow-capped and frozen, and there was no way to find it under your feet.

And the meeting place of the six tribes of Shuixi is just on the other side of Wumeng Mountain, Xiangshui Beach, if you want to kill them, you must climb over the Wumeng Heavenly Danger.

Looking at the vast mountains, the Ming soldiers hesitated in their hearts, because the mountain road was too difficult to walk.

However, if you want to quickly quell the rebellion of the six tribes and let the army march to Sichuan without worries, you must face the difficulties.

In the end, with my strong encouragement, it took the soldiers half a day to finally climb to the top of the mountain.

Buddy, I stand on the top of the mountain, under the reflection of the setting sun, looking at the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.

At the mouth of the waterfall at the foot of the mountain, the leaders of the six tribes of Shuixi are drinking and singing around the fire pond, playing a lot of fun.

At this time, Zhang Zhao ran over and said to me: "Your Majesty, there is already a cliff in front of you, and you can't go down at all!" ”

I walked over to take a look, it was really a cliff, a waterfall was like a white practice hanging straight to the cloud sail, people standing next to it, couldn't help but tremble their legs.

"If you can't go down, you have to go down! If there is no way out, you have to go! ”

I scolded sharply, and then asked the Ming soldiers to take out the thousand-meter-long rope I had prepared in advance, and then tied one end of the rope to the boulder above the cliff, and the other end was lowered under the waterfall.

Although it seemed much safer with the protection of the rope, everyone was still afraid.

After all, the cliff is so high that if you miss it, you will fall to pieces.

When everyone saw this, they wanted to retreat, and they didn't know what to do for a while, because I was worried that if I forced them again, they might directly turn against me.

At this moment, Mu Xia stood up, she changed her previous brutal human nature, and said coldly: "The imperial court raises soldiers for a thousand days, and uses them for a while!" Now is the time for you to serve the country and make contributions, what are you doing one by one, follow me! ”

After saying that, she pulled the rope and slowly lowered herself down the mountain.

Dude, I stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at her heroic appearance, admiring and worrying.

Fortunately, she didn't have any accidents and landed safely down the mountain.

Mu Xia and a female streamer have set an example, buddy, I naturally can't hold back.

After she went down, buddy I followed Xia Wanchun and pulled the rope and began to put herself down.

Seeing that we had all landed safely, the soldiers on the top of the mountain no longer had any worries, and they followed one after another with the determination to live to die. Only one person fell off the cliff because he didn't hold on to the rope.

When they came to the bottom of the mountain, everyone took advantage of the night to touch the fire pond where the six tribes of Shuixi gathered.

And the thieves of the six parts of Shuixi are still immersed in singing and wine, completely unaware that death is imminent.

"Up!" I yelled and rushed first.

When the leaders of the six departments of Shuixi saw the soldiers of the Ming army descending from the sky like divine soldiers, they were frightened and scattered, and they threw away the wine glass in their hands and prepared to escape.

But how could they escape, the soldiers of the Ming army were like wolves and tigers, and they were quickly killed on the ground.

After killing these thieves, I took out the Great Seal of Toast and the Talisman from the clothes of the dragon, and then handed them to the dragon.

After taking the seal, Hao Peng knelt directly on the fire pit, endured the charcoal fire, raised his hand and swore to me: "Shuixi Six Tusi Hao Peng, swear to the god of fire and the sun god, loyal to the Ming court for generations, and never do anything to split the country." If you disobey, you will be burned to death! ”

Nima! Watching him kneel on the charcoal fire, my legs burned and I felt pain, but he didn't react at all.

Dude, I have to convince you, once these ethnic minorities become loyal to you, it is really heart-wrenching.

I hurriedly helped him up, and then said, "Hao Peng, no one of me will obey your uncle." You don't need to burn yourself with fire to show your loyalty, how painful it is! ”

"The emperor doesn't know that kneeling in the fire pond and swearing is a rule handed down by our Yi people for generations. If a person cannot stand the test of fire, then what he says is not trustworthy! ”

"Uh...... I know you're loyal to the court! As I spoke, I patted him on the shoulder, and then said, "Now that the leader of the six tribes is dead, you will be in charge of Shuixi in the future." Remember, as long as Li Dingguo returns to Sichuan from Yunnan, you have to block it along the way. If you can't beat him, you can help me drag him down. ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will definitely live up to my mission!"

After telling him to stop Li Dingguo, I was ready to leave.

Before leaving, Hao Peng once again mentioned to me that the Sichuan Tibetans wanted to be independent, and told me to be vigilant.

To tell the truth, the Tibetans in Sichuan want to be independent, buddy, I really can't control this matter now, because now my first task is to relieve the siege of Yunnan.

If you want to clean up these rebellious Tibetan barbarians, you can only free up your hands after I have pacified the entire Central Plains and repelled the Manchu Tartars.

……

After quelling the rebellion of the six tribes in Shuixi, I reorganized my troops and horses, and then marched north to Sichuan.

After bypassing Wumeng Mountain and successively taking military strongholds such as Yongning, Jingxian, and Changning, the army came to Xuzhou, the first important town in southern Sichuan, which is today's Yibin City, Sichuan.

Before we came, Xuzhou City had already been broken by Li Dingguo.

Li Dingguo was in a hurry to go south to besiege Yunnan, so there were not many soldiers left in the city, only more than 5,000 people.

Even so, it is extremely difficult to take Xuzhou City.

Because the city of Xuzhou was built along the Yangtze River, the whole city was built in the most dangerous place of the Yangtze River, relying on the natural danger of the Yangtze River, it can be said that it is a man who is a man who cannot be opened, if you want to take it, you must let the army cross the Yangtze River.

However, in ancient times, there were no bridges on the Yangtze River, and the only way to cross the river was by boat.

However, after Li Dingguo captured Xuzhou, in order to prevent the Ming army from advancing northward, before going south to Yunnan, he took back all the boats on the south bank of the Yangtze River to Xuyong City on the north bank, and even the fishermen's boats were confiscated.

Under such circumstances, I stood by the Yangtze River and fell into melancholy.

Because after we took the three military strongholds of Yongning, Jingxian, and Changning, Li Dingguo already knew that I was leading the army north.

At this time, he had already transferred his troops and was ready to come to the Yangtze River to stop me.

Although I asked the Yi native soldiers of the six tribes of Shuixi to entangle him in Zhaotong and slow down his speed to the north.

But after all, the six divisions of Shuixi had few major generals, so they could only hold him back for a while, and it was impossible to annihilate his 150,000 army.

Therefore, if I don't cross the Yangtze River immediately and take Xuzhou, it is very likely that the army will be destroyed and the Yangtze River will be destroyed, and all the plans I have made before will be in vain.

Under such circumstances, I hurriedly ordered the soldiers to cut down trees and build rafts, and prepare to cross the river on rafts.

However, the river was turbulent, and after the raft was put into the river, it was instantly swept away by the whirlpool.

As a result, the army was directly trapped on the edge of the Yangtze River, and my buddy and I quickly rushed to discuss how to cross the river.

A group of key cadres have made suggestions.

Some said that the army would make a detour to Daliang Mountain and go north to Chengdu from Daliang Mountain; Some said that they would spend money to buy the guards of Xuzhou and let him let us cross the river; Some actually told Lao Tzu that it was really impossible to withdraw from the army.

I rejected each of these tactics because each one was reliable.

Think about it, if the army makes a detour to Daliang Mountain, it is impossible to have the opportunity to go north to Chengdu.

Because by the Jinsha River, 300 miles south of Daliang Mountain, Sun Kewang has an army of 40,000 people, and when we reach Daliang Mountain, Sun Kewang can completely unite with Li Dingguo to attack us, and then we will only have a dead end.

And spending money to buy the Xuyong guard is even more impossible.

Because before the army arrived in Xuzhou, I had already learned that the defender of Xuzhou was Liu Wenxiu.

Who is Liu Wenxiu?

Like Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, and Ai Nengqi, he is Zhang Xianzhong's righteous son!

Liu Wenxiu and the four of them were raised by Zhang Xianzhong since they were children, and later followed Zhang Xianzhong to fight in the south and the north.

Zhang Xianzhong is still alive, how could Liu Wenxiu surrender for money?

Besides, after Zhang Xianzhong captured Sichuan and established the Daxi regime, his four generals were not short of money at all.

Because the historical records record that Zhang Xianzhong searched for all kinds of people's fat and ointment in Sichuan, it can be said that gold and silver treasures are piled up.

It is said that after Chengdu was captured by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Zhang Xianzhong threw as many as 10,000 taels of silver to the Minjiang River.

So it is obviously not feasible to buy Liu Wenxiu with money.

As for those who said that they would withdraw from the army, Lao Tzu beheaded them on the spot, and this kind of person completely disturbed the morale of the army.

……

I rejected everyone's opinions, but I couldn't think of a better way to cross the river, buddy.

For a while, the soldiers of the Ming army were panicked, if I couldn't think of a way to cross the river, then the army might really be surrounded and annihilated by Li Dingguo on the edge of the Yangtze River!
