In April 1653, Sun Kewang ordered Liu Wenxiu to be relieved of military power and sent him back to Kunming to live idle. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the same time, Liu Wenxiu's henchman Zhang Xianbi was beaten to death.

Sun Kewang's series of actions aroused the dissatisfaction of other generals of the Great Western Army, and the Great Western Army was disheartened.

After forcibly absorbing Liu Wenxiu's troops, Sun Kewang's strength increased dramatically, and he already had 110,000 troops.

In this way, Sun Kewang still felt uneasy, so he pulled Zhuang Ding everywhere and incorporated him into the army.

With 170,000 troops, Sun Kewang felt confident in his heart, led the army east into Yuanzhou, and sent seven letters in three days, urging Li Dingguo to come to discuss matters.

Li Dingguo's food was cut off, and Sun Kewang repeatedly urged him, so he had to go with his own soldiers.

Li Dingguo and his entourage walked to the Ziyang Ferry, and suddenly a secret envoy claiming to be Liu Wenxiu secretly blocked the road and asked to see him.

When Li Dingguo heard this, he hurriedly asked people to stop camping and rest.

In the tent, Li Dingguo looked at the stranger and said, "Who are you?" I've never seen you in Shu King before! ”

The stranger hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The king of Xining clearly sees that the younger one is Cai Jiuyi, the son of Liu Zhen, the son of the king of Shu, and the king of Shu is very strictly guarded by the king of Qin, so he does not dare to act rashly. I had to send a small one to deliver the news! ”

When Li Dingguo heard what the other party said, he also felt that it made sense, and asked a few questions about Liu Wenxiu and Liu Zhen, and Cai Jiuyi answered them fluently.

Only then did Li Dingguo believe the identity of the other party and asked, "What is there to convey when the King of Shu sent you!" ”

Cai Jiu hurriedly said: "King Xining be careful, Sun Kewang wants you to go back because he wants to kill you!" ”

"What!?" Li Dingguo was taken aback when he heard it.

Li Dingguo is not a fool, he quickly reacted and said: "King Qin is still not worried about me!" No, I'm going to see him and make my heart clear! ”

Cai Jiuyi was taken aback when he heard this, and said, "The prince is confused! If you go, it will be equivalent to a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, and life and death will not be up to you! ”

Li Dingguo said with tears in his eyes: "Although King Qin has the mentality of a thief, I still have to be sincere to him. ”

Cai Jiuyi shook his head and said, "Lord Wang, you are here, King Qin still has concerns in his heart, and he doesn't dare to be the emperor in vain." If you are captured, I am afraid that no one will be able to stop King Qin's ambitions. For the sake of the world, the prince must not make mistakes! ”

When Li Dingguo heard it, he sighed and said, "What Mr. said is that Ning Yu is confused. Thank you, Mr. for coming to tell me for coming for days, Ning Yu is grateful! ”

After speaking, Li Dingguo bowed down and thanked him.

Cai Jiuyi hurriedly avoided the words: "The king of Xining is serious, and the little one is just ordered to act." My prince also said that the king of Xining should go back as soon as possible, take precautions, and don't take it lightly. ”

"Yes, Xining is leaving!" Li Dingguo acted decisively, and after making up his mind, he immediately returned with his subordinates.

It's just that Li Dingguo was a little unwilling after all, and before leaving, he sent a subordinate to Sun Kewang with a handwritten letter.

The letter roughly means: "Today it is not easy to achieve such a good situation, success or failure is in sight, we should work together to restore the Ming Dynasty, please don't listen to slander, so that we kill each other, I hope you can think twice." ”

Sun Kewang was annoyed and angry after receiving the letter, this bastard wanted to kill Lao Tzu before, but now he saw that Lao Tzu was too powerful and didn't dare to start, so he used words to deceive Lao Tzu, and he was really stupid when Lao Tzu was stupid!

On the fourth day of May 1653, Sun Kewang swore an oath in Guiyang, personally commanded 170,000 soldiers and horses to march to Guilin, and used Bai Wenxuan as the general to recruit the rebellion, and Feng Shuangli stayed in Guiyang.

At the same time, Sun Kewang rewarded a lot, and sealed Bai Wenxuan King Gongchang, Ma Jinzhong Jiading King, Feng Shuangli Xing'an King, Zhang Hu Dongchang Marquis, and Yu Dafeng was poor.

It has been the right of emperors to reward the king since ancient times, and Sun Kewang's move has shown his intention to rebel.

Sun Kewang had 170,000 soldiers and horses, Li Dingguo only had 60,000 or 70,000 men, not to mention that in Yunnan, Wang Shangli, who guarded Kunming, and Wang Ziqi, the general of Chuxiong, were Sun Kewang's cronies.

Sun Kewang thought that he had won the battle, and he even ordered someone to "prefabricate 300 pairs of twist locks, saying: The day of breaking Yunnan is used to imprison Yongli and set the country, Wenxiu Zhuwen and Wu to solve Qian'er!" ”

As soon as he heard the news that Sun Kewang sent troops, Zheng Chenggong immediately played the Yongli calendar, reprimanding Sun Kewang for taking on the capital, committing murder, cutting off the Yuan Yuan, crippling the virtuous and harming the good, hoping that the saint would correct his crimes, so that his subjects would rebel and restore.

In the Zhaoqing Palace, Emperor Yongli finished reading Zheng Chenggong's recital and asked, "Master Qu, is this Zheng Mingyan's recital?" ”

Qu Shiyun pondered for a while and said: "Saint, Sun Kewang is ambitious, but Zheng Chenggong is not a good person. You must not agree to Zheng Chenggong's request, otherwise the land of Yungui may fall into his hands, and the emperor's situation will be even more difficult. ”

Emperor Yongli said with some concern: "But without Zheng Mingyan's help, can Li Dingguo alone pacify Sun rebels?" ”

Qu Shiyun said: "The Holy Lord can issue an order that the king of Tegasining should be specially conscripted, give Shang Fang Sword, act cheaply, and hang up the seal of the invitation. The king of Shu is a deputy recruit, if he wins, he doesn't have to worry, if he doesn't win, he will think about it! ”

When Emperor Yongli heard this, he felt that it made sense, and ordered Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu to have full authority to deal with Sun Kewang's rebellion.

Li Dingguo received the holy decree and saw that Sun Kewang had no intention of repenting, and after discussing with his subordinates, he decided to personally unify the main force to block the Kewang army from entering Gui.

At the same time, he sent a message to Liu Wenxiu, giving him full command of Yunnan's affairs.

On the Jinluan Hall of the Beijing Master, the crown prince and the prince Ji Bilong knelt down and said: "Qi Qi Sheng, according to the report of the spies." A few days ago, Sun Kewang, the thieves of Daxi, had a domestic conflict with Li Dingguo, and Sun Kewang raised 170,000 troops to attack Li Dingguo. ”

When the crown prince Taibao Suke Shaha heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "The sky is great, and the emperor is a good time to eradicate the thieves and dominate the country." The emperor must not miss it! ”

Sonny, the head of the Internal Affairs Office, also knelt down and played: "Your Majesty, in the past, the Great Western Thieves were in Yungui and the Zheng Family were in the southeast, and it was difficult for me to eliminate them for a while, so this gang of thieves became stronger. Now they eat dogs, which is a good reality for bulldozing the Daxi bandits. The Great West thieves are attacked, and the Zheng family is difficult to support alone, and the opportunity for defeat is not far away! ”

As several of the main officials spoke, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knelt down and shouted: "Please send an order to send troops to eradicate the Daxi thieves and dominate the world." ”

Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty shouted: "All Aiqing, please get up, I also have this intention." Who do you think Aiqing can take on this important task and lead the troops to issue certificates? ”

Sony said: "Hong Chengchou understands strategy, is good at managing soldiers, and can be a general!" ”

Su Ke also said: "The minister seconded the proposal! ”

……

Hearing that several of the main henchmen thought that Hong Chengchou was suitable to be the commander and lead the troops, Emperor Shunzhi issued an order: "The crown prince and the prince, the secretary of the military department and the right deputy of the capital of the Imperial Palace, Hong Chengchou, the governor of military affairs, and the management of food and salary." Appeasement of the South! (To be continued.) )
