Kunming and Jianchang are more than 800 miles apart, Liu Wenxiu received the holy decree, then took his son Liu Zhen and the general Di Sanpin with a team of elite cavalry to Kunming to go, Guangchang Marquis Gao Chengen sat in Jianchang, and prepared to meet the relevant matters, the temporary palace was located in Liu Wenxiu's Shu Palace.

According to Liu Zhen's description, Liu Wenxiu has already determined that Ma Jixiang is a fox in the DPRK and China. This time, he personally took over the car, in order to prevent Ma Jixiang from blocking him as the first assistant, because he also knew very well that Ma Jixiang would definitely be able to understand that when the Yongli court left Kunming and entered southern Sichuan controlled by Liu Wenxiu, he would be far away from the tiger, and the fox's deterrent power in front of other animals would take a sharp turn.

Liu Wenxiu began to formally set up the project at the end of the month, and sent his son back to Kunming in the first month, back and forth, and at the end of February of the thirteenth year of Yongli, Liu Wenxiu, who took the elite horsemen of the department, had already rushed to Kunming City.

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu."

"Ma Shoufu."

Arriving in Kunming, Liu Wenxiu left Di Sanxi to lead the troops to camp outside the west gate of the city, so as not to harass the people of Kunming and cause unnecessary misunderstandings. After entering the city, Liu Wenxiu and his son went straight to the palace with the royal soldiers, but they met Ma Jixiang, the first assistant minister of the cabinet who had just come out of the palace, at the gate of the palace.

Liu Wenxiu rushed over, so he didn't ask what was going on, but Ma Jixiang didn't panic, greeted the Liu family father and son with a smile, exchanged a greeting or two, and exchanged some unnutritious polite words before saying goodbye and returning home.

Ma Jixiang is born in Jinyiwei, relying on sycophants to be promoted quickly, when it comes to psychological quality, when it comes to the kung fu of shaving and slapping horses, the real eunuchs are better than him, otherwise there would not be Jin Tongwu who killed him and Pang Tianshou, as a result, Pang Tianshou committed suicide in fear of crime, but he relied on his three-inch incorruptible tongue to say that Jin Tongwu not only did not kill him, but also said to Li Dingguo for him, and even Jin Weixin, a civilian staff member who has followed Li Dingguo for many years, also looked forward to Ma Jixiang, a newly attached disciple, which can be seen.

The conversation and laughter outside the palace gate were lively, and the father and son of the Liu family knew that characters like Ma Jixiang were the ones who would not show the emotions in their hearts, so they didn't think about it anymore, so they hurriedly entered the palace.

Liu Wenxiu is the king of Shu, one of the only three princes with different surnames in the Southern Ming Dynasty, with heavy troops in hand, and the palace also knows that the Son of Heaven is ready to move to Sichuan to appease the generals of Kuidong, and the father and son directly followed the eunuchs in the palace into the main hall, and Yongli, who had already received the news, was also waiting for their father and son there.

"Minister, Liu Wenxiu, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"Aiqing is exempt."

Liu Wenxiu's father and son got up, and Yongli was also emotional. has always been forced to drive, and behind him is either the Qing army or Sun Kewang's army. But this time, he wanted to work hard for the foundation of his ancestors, as Liu Wenxiu expressed in the recital, "The holy drive to Sichuan, with the emperor's more than 200 years of kindness, should lead the Sichuan generals to repent and march north." As a result, out of the mountains and Shaanxi, into the Zhili, to destroy the northern captives, and to collect the Beijing division, in order to protect the country. ”

Just like the chaos at the end of Qin, Wang Zhi, who entered Xianyang first, although there was no agreement here, but now it is clear that whoever destroyed the Manchu Qing first and took over the capital will have the qualification to win the world. Previously, when Wu Sangui was anyway, Yongli carefully thought about the feasibility of the army going north to Shaanxi, and then taking Li Zicheng's old road to the east.

"I have ordered the Ministry of Rites to choose an auspicious day, just three days later, Aiqing came at the right time."

"State affairs are like this, and ministers dare not to worry about it."

Today's half of the country is clearly fought by the Ming army of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Zhejiang, Liu Wenxiu also knows that this is unfair to Chen Wen and Chen Wen's subordinates, but how can there ever be fairness in this world, if there is, he will not become a rogue and live such a bloody life.

Supporting is a monstrous achievement, but also a monstrous disaster, Xiying chose Yongli, he and Li Dingguo did not hesitate to turn their faces with Sun Kewang for this, not only loyalty, but also to protect them and the well-being of the people who follow them, just like Chen Wen also wants to protect the well-being of the Qi palace and those soldiers who have followed him over the years to recover half of the south of the Yangtze River is a truth, there is no difference.

Doing great things and choosing a good day has been extremely important since ancient times. Liu Wenxiu has a heart here, Yongli has intentions, and the difference is nothing more than the auspicious time three days later.

In this case, some practical content was agreed, and Liu Wenxiu also told Yongli about the next strategic plan, and the two monarchs and ministers had a tacit understanding, and the strategy behind them was easy to lay out. When the discussion was over, Yongli gave the royal banquet, and after eating, the Liu family father and son returned to their Shu palace in Kunming.

"Father, Master Mao is so incompetent, why do you still want to invoke him into the court?"

In the palace, although Liu Zhen couldn't understand the dumb riddle between the monarch and the minister, Liu Wenxiu's family education was very strict, and Liu Zhen also knew that it was inconvenient to ask, until he returned to the mansion, there was no one else around, and he asked Liu Wenxiu those things he didn't understand.

"This matter is very simple, Inspector Mao and Ma Jixiang were not in harmony, and Ma Jixiang was attached to Liu Chengyin back then, which was the good thing that Inspector Mao ruined his knighthood. This time, Inspector Wen was dismissed, and the Holy Lord ostensibly took this matter because Ma Jixiang got the mind of your Uncle Li to impeach him so hard. However, the front foot dismissed Inspector Wen, and the back foot sent Inspector Mao over, so that the saint and the generals of Kuidong would not be intervened by others. ”

The method of the heavenly family to control the ministers, without the need to teach it hand-in-hand, with the wisdom of Yongli, the doorway in this can still be understood, of course, others are not allowed to get involved in the official position of the governor of Sichuan and Hubei.

After Liu Zhen heard this, he immediately understood the subtle thoughts of this heavenly family. Since ancient times, the king has been like a tiger, and he has been cowardly forever, not like the lord of Zhongxing, but he is not a fool. Recalling that at the beginning of the move to Kunming, Yongli appointed Mu Tianbo, the Duke of Qianguo, to lead the forbidden army, and then thinking of such a thing, the sweat on his forehead suddenly appeared.

"Then why do you want to invite Inspector Wen to return to the court, if it weren't for Inspector Wen who couldn't control the generals in Kuidong, my father would have led the troops north a long time ago, how could there be such trouble today?"

Liu Wenxiu has been prepared for Liu Zhen's problems, and he has always known that his son is the same as Sun Kewang's son Sun Zhengqi, Li Dingguo's son Li Sixing and Ai Nengqi's son Ai Chengye, and he is far from being comparable to their fathers. But in any case, his son will not change, and it will only be his son who will inherit the title of King Shu in the future, so he will naturally impart as much knowledge as possible, so as to make up for the gap in talent.

"Inspector Mao returned to the dynasty to confront Ma Jixiang. After all, he has won the trust of your Uncle Li, there is no need to be a father, and he can't be forced to a dead end, as long as someone can contain him in the court. On the side of the Wen Inspector, he is still responsible for leading the generals in Kuidong, and the saint was able to send Mao Inspector to control the generals, and it is inconvenient for the father to directly annex it. ”

Liu Wenxiu's thoughts are like this, only on Li Dingguo's side, Liu Wenxiu appreciates his ability to use troops on the one hand, and on the other hand, he is afraid that the power of the matter is different, so he can only let Li Dingguo continue to sit in Guizhou for the time being.

The father and son talked for a long time, the son gained experience, and the father also reaped joy. There was nothing to say all night, and in the next two days, Liu Wenxiu entered the palace every day to see His Majesty, exchanged ideas with Yongli on the transfer and the next general strategy, and soon arrived on the auspicious day of departure.

Moving to Sichuan, the palace has been preparing for many days, and after many years of traveling, there is not enough to affect the scale of the trip. On the auspicious day, Yongli and the officials of the Ministry of Rites prepared for the ceremony, but the auspicious time had not yet arrived, and the city gate was the first to come with news, saying that Li Dingguo, the king of Jin, had returned to Kunming with a team of elite horses.

"Why did Aiqing return to Kunming, but there is something different in Guizhou?"

Yongli was embarrassed to ask Li Dingguo if he couldn't clean up the mess in Guizhou and was driven back - the military leaders and toasts in Guizhou were okay, if Chen Wen entered Guizhou again and drove Li Dingguo back to Kunming, it might be safe to retreat to the vassal state at that time.

As soon as this kind of thought appeared, it was denied by Yongli in an instant, and there was no urgent report from Guizhou before, if the army attacked, it would take a while to kill from Chenzhou to Guiyang, and he had no reason not to know.

When he said this, Yongli also had the intention of testing Li Dingguo, but Li Dingguo opened his mouth, but he was directly stunned on the spot.

"The minister came back this time, but he was unwell, and asked His Majesty to remove the minister's military power."

………………

"What the hell do you want to do?!"

After Li Dingguo made such a fuss, the matter of moving the car was also forced to be postponed, and after Li Dingguo played it alone, the matter of moving the car was completely denied.

Yongli moved, and it was inconvenient for Liu Wenxiu to be in the city, so as not to take the reputation of the Son of Heaven hostage. However, he was in the military camp in the west of the city, and he didn't know anything about Li Dingguo, who entered the city from the north gate, and by the time he got the news, the matter of moving the car had been completely ruined.

Liu Wenxiu knew that Ma Jixiang, a traitor, was indispensable for isolating the news during this time, but it was Li Dingguo who persuaded Yongli, Liu Wenxiu entered the palace and saw that Yongli had given up his plan to move, so he went straight to Li Dingguo's Jin Palace, and the two inevitably quarreled as soon as they met.

"Are you too embarrassed to ask me?"

"What am I embarrassed about?"

"Then you tell me, when you and I welcomed the Son of Heaven into Kunming, what did you meet, do you remember?!"

The two of you and I were-for-tat, but when Li Dingguo asked this, Liu Wenxiu was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "At that time, you and I made an appointment to protect the present together, and we can no longer be that grandson." What you mean is that I, Liu Wenxiu, welcome the Son of Heaven to move to Sichuan this time, and appease the Sichuan people will be able to do Sun Kewang! ”

"My generation was forced by corrupt officials and corrupt officials, so they rebelled and overthrew the imperial court, which is really a failure to the country, and the country is not a failure to us. Now it is the younger brother of the Emperor Lie, if you work together to protect it, if you have to restore the Central Plains through Yunnan and Guizhou, then you will be crowned with a wife and a son, and you will return to your hometown, and you will also have a history of beauty. If you only act indiscriminately with the King of Qin, although you are called the king and the prince, you will not be able to be corrected in the end. But my generation today takes the King of Qin as Dong Zhuo, and I am afraid that Dong Zhuo will be replaced by Cao Cao after him. ”

The oath of that year is vivid, and Li Dingguo has made it clear that Liu Wenxiu's move is to follow Sun Kewang and control the Son of Heaven in his hands.

This is actually contrary to their previous agreement that Liu Wenxiu's troops went out of Sichuan to collect Shanxi, Li Dingguo sat in Guizhou to prevent Chen Wen, and the Son of Heaven sat in Yunnan to control the overall situation, but Liu Wenxiu never had this intention to ask himself, and he also deeply hated Ma Jixiang for controlling the government under the banner of Li Dingguo in the court, and blurted out to Li Dingguo.

However, hearing this, Li Dingguo sneered, obviously agreeing with what Liu Wenxiu was pointing out, and even asked: "If you are selfless in your heart, such a big matter, why don't you discuss it with me first?" ”

"Lile conquest comes from the Son of Heaven, you are the King of Jin, I am the King of Shu, all have responsibilities in all aspects, I invite the Son of Heaven by myself, why do I have to ask you first?"

"Regardless of the oath, you have to be strong, I think you clearly want to be Sun Kewang's second!"

………………

"If you retreat from the wolf and enter the tiger, the king of Jin will be defeated."

After the quarrel, there was still no result, issued this sentence to vent his anger, Liu Wenxiu did not return to Sichuan Xingdu Division, simply lived in the palace of the king of Shu, the whole person is becoming more and more negative, "where the great morning day begins to go to the court, often the day does not go", "all the soldiers and horses affairs are handed over to the guard Chen Jian, and do not leave the house", soon after the onset of bedridden, Yongli and Li Dingguo have been to visit, repeatedly relieved, sent a doctor to deal with it, but there is no medicine for heart disease, until March 26 seriously ill and died.

When he was dying, Liu Wenxiu left a posthumous statement: "...... The country is in danger, please enter Shu to serve the soldiers of the thirteen families. The minister has 160,000 yuan in cellar gold, which can be paid. The wives of the ministers and their families should be whipped to obey the king. Then he went out of the camp in Shaanxi and Luo, and turned defeat into success. The heart of this minister is also the one who dies and looks at it. ”

Liu Wenxiu died of illness, and the Kunming Station of the Military Intelligence Department knew the importance of this matter, but it was afraid that only Yongli would suddenly die to compare, so it used the highest level of military intelligence report at the first time, and withdrew from Kunming at the first time in order to prevent the eyes and ears of the Jinyi guard.

In order to ensure that the news could be delivered, the Military Intelligence Department sent no less than five carrier pigeons at each station to deliver the code in case of accidents. When Chen Wen received the news, it was already mid-April, and after reading the news of the internal fighting between the two feudal domains of central Yunnan, Jin and Shu, Chen Wen sighed, because this was both what he wanted to see and what he didn't want to see, especially Liu Wenxiu's death, which was the most important thing he didn't want to see.

All along, Chen Wen's plan was to take advantage of Li Dingguo's weakness in governing well to divide the power of the Ming army in the Xiying system. Creating financial pressure is one point, and what Li Dingguo did in history, whether it was dividing the "Qin soldiers" and "Jin soldiers", or rewarding and punishing the generals below during Sun Kewang's internal crimes, was extremely detrimental to internal unity, and what Chen Wen had to do was just watch his self-defeat, and there was no need to do anything at all.

In Chen Wen's plan, as long as Li Dingguo himself corrupts the hearts of the people in Xiying, and the people in Xiying will be centrifuged, and they can no longer work together, then he can completely feel at ease in the Northern Expedition, and there is no need to worry about his death - although Chen Wen does not want to believe that Li Dingguo will start a civil war against him, but he must be responsible for those who have followed him to fight so far, and he can only "live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain".

During this period, Li Dingguo did the things he had done in history as expected, and the generals under the command of the original grandson Kewang in Xiying were already detached from morality, among which the most fierce three generals He Jiuyi, Wang Shangli, and Wang Ziqi intercepted the taxes of Nanning and Liuzhou, making it clear that they were incompatible with Li Dingguo.

After less than two years, the finances of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces have been completely unable to make ends meet, and Li Dingguo has added fuel to the fire by dividing factions and cutting military salaries and rations for non-descendants.

Yungui's Xiying system is already a plate of scattered sand, the difference is only the day the building collapses, but Liu Wenxiu died, even if his death is the same as in history, but due to different reasons, it was unexpected by Chen Wen.

Historically, the Three Kings infighting was the last large-scale infighting in the Southern Ming Dynasty, and it was divided into two stages. The first stage was the outbreak of a civil war between Sun Kewang of the self-reliant faction and Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu of the Fuming faction, and the result was that Sun Kewang surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and the army of the Qin domain was annexed to the Ming court. Originally, if the two of them could be properly disposed of and work together, the future might not be dark, after all, Li Dingguo's military talent was really the biggest killer weapon of the Ming court at that time.

However, not only did the two fail to achieve cooperation, but even Sun Kewang had just surrendered, and Liu Wenxiu intended to ask Yongli to move to Guiyang, but he was coerced by Li Dingguo's "sick retreat", and later Liu Wenxiu was left idle, which led to Liu Wenxiu's depression, and this is the second stage of the three kings' infighting.

As a result of the internal strife among the three kings, the Southern Ming court, which originally realized the inheritance of Sun Kewang's inheritance, went directly to the Xiying system because of Li Dingguo's series of stupid actions, and when the Qing army gathered forces to enter Yunnan in a big way, just with Sun Kewang's persuasion to surrender, the Qing army almost went down to almost all of the southwest without a fight - those military generals from the Qin and Shu domains and the civil officials promoted by Sun Kewang were fed up with Li Dingguo's discrimination and exclusion, and they fell to the Qing army, and some of the troops became Wu Sangui's loyalty and bravery. The 10th Battalion of Volunteers participated in the later rebellion of the Three Feudatories, and Ma Bao, the general of the Loyal and Brave Battalion, was the most warlike general under Wu Sangui at that time, and repeatedly defeated the Qing army.

Liu Wenxiu's actions, although they are reasonable, should be discussed a little, and Li Dingguo, in the words of later generations, is all about military talent, and his political ability is more pitiful than that of Sun Kewang, who is forward-looking and backward.

In the words of the people of the time: "It is hoped that the country will be governed well, and the country will be able to use troops." Let them work together, and the work of the southwest may not be Ai, but attack each other, and they will be destroyed. "However, Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo can't cooperate, even Liu Wenxiu, a teammate who swore an oath, Li Dingguo can't be compatible, and he really wants to die.

What is the destiny of heaven, Chen Wen does not want to speculate, but this Jin King Li Dingguo, in the eyes of many people in later generations, is a national hero who is constantly being pitted by teammates such as Sun Kewang and Zheng Chenggong, and even subordinates, in fact, in the history of Nanming, he is not only a victim, but also plays the role of a pig teammate.

The reason for this is that if you think about it carefully, it is very simple, and different political and military forces have their own different interests and demands.

Li Dingguo attacked Xinhui and invited Zheng Chenggong to help in the war, but Zheng Chenggong delayed until Li Dingguo's army was defeated, and only sent his generals to go. In the final analysis, the situation faced by the Ming army in Fujian at that time drove them to make such a decision - the contradiction between Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo, the three bureaus led by Qian Qianyi, Zhang Mingzhen's division of troops into the Yangtze River, and the use of false peace with the Qing court to restore their strength, naturally distracted Guangdong.

In the same way, the internal struggle between the self-reliance faction and the Fuming faction led to Sun Kewang's internal crimes, whether it was Liu Wenxiu's management of Guizhou and Li Dingguo's presence in Yunnan in history, or now Liu Wenxiu's management of Sichuan and Li Dingguo's presence in Guizhou, in fact, it is the same reason, where to send troops is the direction of interests, and there are also various contradictions between the generals of the former Qin Dynasty and the generals of the Jin Domain, coupled with Li Dingguo's sighing political ability, the second half of the infighting between the three kings is not unexpected.

The definition of a national hero is more about integrity than success or failure. Zheng Chenggong died in depression in Taiwan, Li Dingguo died in Yunnan, and Zhang Huangyan died in Hangzhou.

Don't judge heroes by success or failure!

Today, the Ming armies in the southwest have embarked on the road of collapse. However, as Chen Wen defeated Sun Kewang and intervened in the infighting between the three kings, while Xiying Centrifugal was repeated, many things became different.

The day after Liu Wenxiu's death, Di Sanpin led his troops to flee to the Xingdu Division in Sichuan. Next, the news of Liu Wenxiu's death spread in the southwest, and soon evolved into Yongli sitting back and watching Liu Wenxiu die of being imprisoned by Li Dingguo under the spread of one caring person after another. For a while, the people in the southwest were panicked, and Chen Wen, who was in Nanjing, soon received the first big gift from the generals of Xiying.

"The last generals Wang Ziqi, Wang Shangli, and He Jiuyi are willing to sacrifice their land in Guangxi, listen to moderation, and invite His Royal Highness the King of Qi to lead the king into Yunnan to crusade against the traitors of the country!"
