Why is Zhu Xieyuan so unrelenting and persistent in widening the post road, and setting up mansions, improving post pavilions, and building warehouses along the post road?

Because he knew that if he did not do so, the pacification of Shuixi by the officials and troops would not last, and it would not be able to be maintained.

At that time, the governor of Guizhou, Wang Sanshan's soldiers entered the west of the water, and even once occupied the generous, the Shuixian clan was divided into zero, and evacuated the mountain city of Muoge, just two or three months later, the official army ran out of food and retreated, and the 48 Yi soldiers of the Shuixian clan surrounded and intercepted the tail pursuit, causing Wang Sanshan to win first and then defeat, and the soldiers were defeated and died.

This is a painful lesson.

Because it is easy to defeat Shuixi, it is too difficult to conquer Shuixi, and even it is easy to conquer Shuixi, and it is too difficult to govern Shuixi.

The difficulty lies in the difficulty of the road, and the difficulty lies in the difficulty of going deeper.

Once there is an unimpeded thoroughfare from Guiyang to Bijie, or even to eastern Sichuan, then the Guizhou Xuanwei Division of the Shuixi An's jurisdiction will also have the conditions for changing the land and returning to the stream.

For Zhu Xieyuan, the plotter is big.

Defeating An Bangyan is only the basic goal, and changing the water west to the river and never suffering in the future is the big goal above the basic goal.

Zhu Xieyuan led the army westward from the luxury fragrance station, and at the same time that the troops were forced to be generous, An Bangyan in the city of Muog Mountain was on the verge of anger and even madness.

Led a part of the people to flee directly back to the Dafang Muorg Mountain City, the Tumu head of the head of the people, was ordered by An Bangyan to take it down in public, and on the front yard of the "Luodian Palace" in the Muog Mountain City, he beheaded the "Ming Zheng Punishment" and beheaded the public.

The current Luodian Palace is the Guizhou Xuanwei Mansion of the former Shuixian clan.

Although the originally planned Zen Concession Ceremony was not held as scheduled, An Bangyan had changed the former Guizhou Xuanwei Mansion into the Luodian Palace, and moved in as he wished.

Now the entire Muorg Mountain City is An Bangyan's final say, and no one dares to oppose it.

Bizuo is also a close branch of the Shuixian clan, and An Bangyan will kill him if he says he will kill him, and no one dares to stand up and intercede for him.

However, although An Bangyan enjoyed the feeling of being self-absorbed in Shuixi after killing the Hao family, he also had to face the current crisis in Shuixi.

Although An Bangyan gloated over the death of Luxury Chongming and the loss of the backing of Mrs. Hongtuchuan for a few days, the officers and troops in the direction of Hongtuchuan, after a short rest, continued to advance along the mountain bird road and in the direction of Dafang, but he could not sleep well.

In addition to the officers and troops in the direction of the Hongtu River in Shaxiba, the ensuing surrender of Shuixi City, as well as the onslaught of the Sichuan army and the Yunnan soldiers in the direction of Bijie on the western front at the expense of casualties again and again, also made An Bangyan, who had just mastered the full power of Shuixi, very anxious.

However, all of this is not as big as the loss of the luxury fragrance post that has a big impact on An Bangyan.

The luxury fragrance post is stuck on the post road, close to the Xixi River, and the Liuchong River with high mountains and deep valleys for twenty or thirty miles to the south, it is not an exaggeration to call it a natural danger.

What's more, it is the last place east of Dafang that can be called a natural danger.

Although the Golden Rooster Farm near Dafang is the location of the Golden Rooster Station, the real post road does not pass through the Golden Rooster Farm, but from the north of the mountain col where the Golden Rooster Farm is located.

The officials and soldiers of the imperial court could completely ignore the Golden Rooster Farm and go straight west along the post road to Dafang.

Therefore, after losing the luxury fragrance station and the yellow mud pond, An Bangyan really felt the danger of the fall of the Shuixian clan.

Bijie faced the repeated onslaught of Hou Liangzhu, the chief military officer of Sichuan, and Lin Zhaoding, the chief military officer of Yunnan, and was crumbling several times, but in the end he did not lose it, and Yang Zuo, the right governor who was relied on by him as his right-hand man, had such natural dangers as Xixi River and Liuchong River, but he lost the luxury fragrance station, which especially made An Bangyan angry.

"Yang misunderstood me! This Xiaxi is really useless! ”

After killing Biao Zuo, An Bangyan gathered a few cronies to discuss countermeasures in the front yard of the Luodian Palace, which was restored as before, and at this time, regardless of the fact that his most trusted Zuodu Governor Mo De was also from Xiaxi, he angrily scolded Yang Zuo in public for being a Xiaxi.

"King! Xixi has been lost, and the right governor is dead. At this point, it is useless to repent. Today's plan is to quickly determine the strategy of war and defense! ”

At this time, it was the teacher of Anwei, the previous mastermind of Mrs. Hao, the old Xiucai Zhou Shiru in Guiyang.

This Zhou Shiru, although he was the former master of the inner courtyard of Guizhou Xuanwei Mansion, has been with An Wei and Mrs. Hao for a long time, and has also participated in many plans for military and civilian affairs in Shuixi through the mouth of An Wei and Mrs. Luxury, such as contacting the Song clan of Shuidong to attack Guiyang together, including his plan.

If it weren't for that, Mrs. Hao wouldn't have let him participate in the design of such a confidential event as the assassination of An Bangyan.

It's just that after the death of Luxury Chongming, this Zhou Shiru saw that An Bangyan was fledgling, his power had been established, and An Wei and Mrs. Hao had no army in their hands, so he quickly recognized the internal situation in Shuixi, and easily sold An Wei and Mrs. Hao and Mrs. Luxu's brother Hao Chonghui to An Bangyan, and sold them for a good price.

Today's Zhou Shiru has changed and has become the new mastermind of An Bangyan, the king of Luodian.

"How should the battle be, and how should the defense be?! Could it be that in today's situation, isn't war just about defending?! ”

After listening to Zhou Shiru's words, An Bangyan's veteran of the Zuodu Governor, Mo De Weng, said angrily.

Zhou Shiru is thin and tall, with a slender figure, a beautiful beard, holding a folding fan, shaking it gently, quite a literary and elegant fairy wind bones.

At this time, after listening to the question of Zuodu Governor Maude, he smiled and did not speak, just waiting for An Bangyan to speak.

Sure enough, An Bangyan said to Zhou Shiru with a calm face: "Xiucai has everything to say, why is he so secretive!" ”

At this time, Zhou Shiru closed the folding fan, and then said solemnly: "The king still remembers the scene back then, Guizhou Governor Wang Sanshan led an army of 60,000 soldiers into Shuixi, and all the attacks were overcome, and all the battles were victorious, and once came to Dafang outside the city, but what was the final result?!" ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Shiru did not wait for An Bangyan to answer, and continued: "Thinking back to the past, the official army was surging, and the king did not use his edge to use the advantage, turned the whole into zero, and retreated into advance. There is a precedent for this complete victory to follow, I don't know what else the king has in his heart?! ”

After Zhou Shiru finished speaking, he looked at An Bangyan and stopped talking.

An Bangyan almost understood what Zhou Shiru meant, but it was difficult to make a decision in his heart, the governor of Guizhou back then, Wang Sanshan, was too ruthless, he led the army to flee Dafang, and fled back to the area of the old nest Zhijin Cave, which was more steep in the mountains and dense forests.

That's a real runaway, a desperate run.

If it weren't for Wang Sanshan, who was born in Yongcheng, Henan, the new Guizhou, who didn't know much about the wind and geography in the Yunnan-Guizhou area, didn't know what changes in the rainy season and dry season, and seriously underestimated the high mountains and dense forests in the mountains of Shuixi, and finally lost in the self-collapse of the army cut off the grain road, then in that battle alone, the Shuixi clan would probably have to be uprooted by Wang Sanshan.

It's just that at this time, An Bangyan listened to Zhou Shiru talking nonsense with his eyes open, and said that his embarrassed escape back then was so brilliant and justifiable, and said that a defeat and escape was a retreat without advancing, and that hiding in Tibet was a tiger returning to the mountain, and he had nothing to refute for a while.

At this time, Zuodu Du Maude said: "Xiucai is right! My Luodian country can stand in the land of Shuixi for thousands of years without extinguishing, relying on not the large land and large population, in addition to my Yi people are good at fighting, the most important thing is the danger of the mountains and forests in Shuixi. ”

Speaking of this, Zuodu Du Maude bowed to An Bangyan and said, "Great King! Now Zhu Xieyuan is leading the army to surge, and its momentum is just like Wang Sanshan back then! The Yunnan soldiers and Sichuan soldiers collected Wusa and broke it, and the Guiyang officers and troops conquered Shuixi and Xiaxixi, and the momentum was flourishing, so it could not be done! ”

After saying these words, Zuo Du Du Mo De paused, did not raise his head, and continued: "At the same time, there are tens of thousands of Zunyi officers and soldiers, and they are coming from the Shaxiba Red Tu River, and their danger is particularly urgent! It is better to take advantage of the fact that the official army has not yet been encircled and generous, to retreat as an advance, to fight elsewhere, in order to wait for the enemy's food to retreat, then the king can endure a moment of humiliation, and gather troops to pursue again, then a big victory can be expected! Please plan early! ”

After Maude finished saying these words, he was also sweating profusely, and now An Bangyan is not in the past, not only can he easily listen to the advice of his subordinates, but he also whips and abuses at every turn, and even kills the whole family, which makes Maude, a veteran who has been fighting with An Bangyan for many years, feel more and more like a companion.

After listening to what Zuodu Governor Maude said, An Bangyan fell into deep thought, his face changed back and forth, suffering from gains and losses, it was difficult to choose, and his position as the king of Luodian was not yet hot, so he led the army to evacuate Mu Oge, which was really a big loss of face and a big loss of prestige.

Mu Oge is the royal city of the Yi people in Shuixi, and the king of Luodian led his army to evacuate his royal city, the capital of his own country, is he still the king of Luodian country?

But if you don't withdraw, with the current command of more than 10,000 people, if you want to hold on to Muoge Mountain City under the siege of the officers and troops in the direction of Zunyi and the direction of Guiyang, the risk is really not ordinary!

Although An Long surrendered to the official army, and An Bangyan also killed his entire family, the military report delivered back a few days before An Long surrendered also made him tremble.

The muskets and artillery of the official army were so sharp, with two thousand against five thousand, the officers and soldiers killed more than 4,000 Yi soldiers without a single death.

This has never happened before!

An Bangyan's face changed several times, and he couldn't make a decision, so he was silent for a long time.

At this time, Zhou Shiru closed the folding fan with a brush and said loudly: "Thirty-six plans, go for the best plan!" If the king hesitates and can't make a decision, it is better to ask the general of Bijie Town! If Bijie can be kept for a long time, the king can also stick to it generously! If Bijie can't be kept for a long time, Bijie will be lost, and generosity will suddenly die! It's too late to regret it! The king should make a decision as soon as possible! ”
