There is a mistake in the previous text, the old four towns of the Taiping Army in Guangxi are the second and fourth towns, and chapter 519 and some chapters are mistakenly called the third towns. Since it cannot be changed, only the reader's attention is requested (e.g., in the case of a book review, the bones have wrapped themselves in. If there are similar mistakes in the future, please point them out as soon as possible, and I will change them. Otherwise, after a certain period of time, the chapter will be locked and cannot be changed)

Luo Keduo, the king of Pingbi County, did not expect that the Ming army in Guangdong would capture Guangxi so quickly, and he did not expect that the Ming army in Guangdong did not enter the king of Yunnan Qin, but suddenly went north to invade Hunan, cutting off the communication between Guizhou and Hunan.

When he received the urgent report from Zhenyuan Mansion, Luo Keduo still didn't believe it, and when news came from Liping, Sizhou, Tonggu and other places, Luo Keduo believed that something had happened in Hunan.

The supply of grain and grass for the southwest army depends on Guiyang, and Guiyang depends on the supply of grain and grass from the southeast, and Hunan is the most important link in the grain and grass transportation line. The grain and grass in the southeast are sent to Hunan through the Yangtze River, and then transshipped to Guizhou through Hunan. Now, the Taiping army broke into Hunan and blocked the border between Hunan and Guizhou, which meant that Guiyang could no longer get grain and grass from the southeast from Hunan.

What does it mean that the grain road was cut off, no matter how young the king of Pingbi County was, he also knew that there was a lot of stakes, so he urgently reported the situation to the general Doni, and at the same time led more than 4,000 troops to the headquarters and transferred more than 10,000 Guizhou battalions to the north into Zhenyuan, trying to defeat the Ming army on the Hunan and Guizhou borders and open up the official road between Guizhou and Hunan.

However, Luo Keduo never thought that the Guangdong Ming army that broke into Hunan would be more able to fight than Li Dingguo in Yunnan, even if he knew very well that the Manchu and Han army led by Prince Jian Jidu was defeated in the hands of this Guangdong Ming army, but he did not be more vigilant, and only said that Jidu underestimated the enemy, and the entry of the Guangdong Ming army into Hunan was just to take advantage of the emptiness of the Qing army garrison in Hunan. Therefore, when the Guizhou battalion had not yet assembled and arrived, he led more than 4,000 troops to the north. In his opinion, the fact that the Manchurian army was invincible in the world would not change because of one or two defeats of the enemy. If the Ming army can really fight, the Qing Dynasty will not be able to enter the pass and occupy the world.

The king of Pingjun led the Manchurian soldiers to the north to retreat from the enemy, and the places along the way naturally ran out of supplies. The prefectures and counties that had already suffered a second disaster due to the Qing army's entry into Guizhou suffered again this time. The place where the full army passed can be described as not leaving an inch of grass, so that some Qing Han officials really couldn't stand it, and ran to the large military camp to ask for the people's lives, and the response was to be beaten with sticks.

After being beaten, some Han officials swallowed their anger, while others were discouraged and secretly abandoned their officials and fled. The Han and Turen, who were plagued by the Manchurian soldiers, fled to the mountains with their families and children, vowing never to go out of the mountains again in this life.

All this, the Manchurian soldiers did not pay attention to, and did not care at all, in their opinion, everything they did was taken for granted, who made them conquerors!

When there were still more than ten miles away from Pingxiyi, the main road connecting Hunan and Guizhou on the border of Hunan and Guizhou, Luo Keduo climbed the hillside by the official road surrounded by his guards.

Although the king of Pingjun is young, he is not ignorant of soldiers, and the local officials reported that there are Ming troops in Pingxiyi, so he has to explore the terrain to ensure that he will not be ambushed by the Ming army. After some investigation, there was no trace of the Ming army. Luo Keduo relieved himself and ordered the full army to continue to march north. When going down the mountain, his subordinate Mongol commander Zakhahu proposed to wait for the Han soldiers to come and attack Pingxiyi, so as to reduce the casualties of the Manchurian disciples.

Zakha is from Horqin Mongolia, he and Luo Keduo are not much different in age, and they have grown up together since childhood, so the two have always been close, and Luo Keduo will not hide anything from him.

"These Han soldiers in Guizhou are the surrender of the Ming Dynasty, the reason why we surrendered, but there is no hope, and now the Ming army is coming from the north, and these people are difficult to guarantee that they have no repeating heart. Therefore, this king can't help but guard against them, fight a victory first, and let them know the strength of the Manchurian soldiers, so that they will naturally have no other thoughts, and they will be able to live for the elderly. ”

"The prince is reasonable, those Han soldiers are unreliable, how can we be truly loyal to the Qing Dynasty."

Zaka nodded when he heard this, and thought that those Ming troops were a little unreliable, and most of them were grass on the wall. To let them know that the Guangdong Ming army entered Hunan and cut off the grain route of the Yunnan-Guizhou-Qing army, there will definitely be repetitions in this gang of wall grass.

Rocodo smiled.

Zaka looked at the thin snow on the mountainside, and said with some emotion: "It's snowing here, presumably the snow is even bigger in Jingshi." Alas, just wait for the general to pacify the Yongli court, we can go back to Beijing, this place is always uncomfortable for us to stay in the Mengmen, far less happy than the Jingshi. ”

When Luo Keduo heard this, he felt the same way, so he sighed with emotion: "You are right, it is better to be in the capital." However, if we want to return to Beijing, we have to have the general capture and kill that Zhu Youlang, otherwise the court will not worry about Yunnan, and the emperor will not transfer us back. ”

"If you want me to say, the imperial court should have withdrawn its troops a long time ago. Even if you don't withdraw completely, you should withdraw some back, hundreds of thousands of people are piled up in the southwest to consume money and food, and they can't be pressed here. Besides, there are few soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, except for Li Dingguo, the rest of the Ming army even has a problem with food and clothing, surrender and die, even if we don't go to suppress them, only guard the checkpoints, they won't last long, they can starve to death if they are hungry" Speaking of this, thinking of the Guangdong Ming army that broke into Hunan from Guangxi, Zaka sneered and said disdainfully: "The Ming army in Guangdong can toss, but it's not a big deal, their court is gone, how long can they jump?" These Han officials in Guizhou are also very afraid of death, and they really don't know what to tell about the 100,000 army. It would be good if the Ming army in Hunan could have 20,000 for the day, and it would be stationed in various places, how many soldiers could stop us? The prince's subordinates are all Manchurian elites, and they can't stop it in one breath, but this time, the prince can avenge Prince Jian. After returning to Beijing, he was no worse than the general. ”

Listening to Zaka's words, Luo Keduo laughed, laughed very happily, Zaka's words really went to his heart, Yunnan was dealing with the Yongli Imperial Court, Doni himself was in charge, for fear that others would rob him of his credit, and he also thought that he was in the way of the county king, otherwise he would not have let him bring people back to Guizhou to ensure the grain route. Having said that, everyone is the king of the county, how expensive are you Doni compared to your own relatives? In terms of age, you are still one year younger than yourself, if it weren't for your dead father, would you be able to make you a general?

Since entering the southwest, Doni has been hiding behind, Wu Sangui and Zhao Butai have fought in Kunming, so he has the courage to move forward, and he has hardly really commanded a battle, so Luo Keduo is quite disdainful of Doni. This time, he didn't wait for Doni to reply to the news, he led the full army to the north, and he also wanted to show himself, if he Luo Keduo could defeat the Guangdong Taiping Army that had defeated Jidu, Shang Kexi, Geng Jimao, and Hahamu, the credit book must not be much worse than Doni. The court sees it in its eyes, the emperor and the queen mother see it in their eyes, can they still favor one over the other after returning to Beijing, and do all the scenery to his doni?

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a bang in front of him, and then saw a team full of soldiers mixed up

There are two more. (To be continued.) )
