The battle to exterminate the Liukou was carried out according to Zheng Xunrui's arrangement, not so much the imperial army to fight the Liukou, but to maintain the stability of all parts of Sichuan, the Liukou has been compressed in the mountainous area between Kuizhou Mansion and Chongqing Mansion in Sichuan, and there is not much room for activities, Qin Liangyu's white pole soldiers are mainly in the Zhongzhou area to defend the Liukou, taking into account the Shunqing Mansion, the Zheng Jiajun is mainly in the Kuizhou area to defend the Liukou, and the Huguang Governor is to deploy a good guard in many places where Sichuan and Huguang meet.

It should be said that this arrangement compresses the Liukou within a narrow range, and the four directions of the southeast, northwest, and northwest are blocked, and it is very difficult to evacuate on a large scale.

Liukou was compressed in the narrow area of Yunyang Wanxian and Liangshan, the imperial army did not encircle and suppress ruthlessly, but only created some momentum in the periphery, and there were very few real attacks, and the only one who undertook the offensive task was the white pole soldiers, and because they took on the responsibility of taking into account Shunqing Mansion, it was impossible to send a lot of troops to attack Liukou.

Qin Liangyu, Ma Xianglin and the others didn't understand Zheng Xunrui's combat deployment very well, but the order had to be executed, which was still a little uncomfortable and incomprehensible for Qin Liangyu and the others, who were accustomed to rushing and fighting.

Zheng Xunrui will not change his opinion, he will not make a large-scale move on Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong for the time being, he is waiting for the infighting of the Liukou, waiting for the conflict between Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, if the imperial army intensifies the attack on the Liukou, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong are afraid that they will hug each other tightly in the face of great danger and burst out into an extraordinary battle. However, once the attack of the imperial army slowed down, and the rogues did not feel the danger for the time being, then the internal affairs rose to the first place.

Zheng Xunrui also had a special conversation with Su Congjun, who used to be under the command of King Gao Yingxiang, and knew Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong and others. He also agreed with Zheng Xunrui's analysis, thinking that Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong are both domineering and will not be convinced by each other, plus Lao Huihui, who can play a coordinating role, has been killed, and the contradiction between Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong will definitely break out, and when that time comes. If the army encircles and suppresses again, it will achieve a heavy victory.

There is another point that Zheng Xunrui is also confident in, that is, in the area of Yunyang Wanxian and Liangshan, the mountains are sparsely populated and there are not many households. Grain and grass are limited, Zhang Xianzhong's army, raising grain and grass will encounter great suffering, when the Zheng family army did not enter Sichuan before, Zhang Xianzhong's range of activities is very wide, and he can run thousands of miles to raise grain and grass, but now it is impossible, and Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong will make peace. also let Zhang Xianzhong know that Zheng Jiajun was responsible for exterminating the Liukou, the previous tragic experience, and the case of Lao Huihui being completely annihilated. Let Zhang Xianzhong never dare to act rashly.

The road in Kuizhou is difficult and dangerous, the Shu road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky, the Ming Dynasty has passed for so many years, the situation of the Shu road has not been fundamentally solved, and the road is difficult. This is a great test for the Zheng family's army, after all, the vast majority of the Zheng family's army is cavalry. But it is also a huge problem for the rogue, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng are from Shaanxi. It may not be able to completely adapt to the steep roads of Sichuan and Shu, and there are a lot of rogues led by Zhang Xianzhong, but they are defeated by the white pole soldiers under Qin Liangyu in every battle, probably because they are not familiar with the terrain and mountain battles.

Zheng Xunrui has his own judgment, although the intelligence collected by the scouts, as well as the information provided by Qin Liangyu and others, shows that the number of rogues under Zhang Xianzhong's command has reached as many as 60,000, but Zheng Xunrui does not believe that if he wants to feed an army of 60,000 in Yunyang Wanxian and Liangshan, this is not an ordinary ability, unless the rogue can be self-reliant, Zhang Xianzhong has been in Sichuan for such a long time, the loss must be not small, but the outside world has not grasped specific information. There must have been a large number of people who fled, and Zhang Xianzhong was short-tempered and could not tolerate people, so it was more likely that such a situation would occur.

Zheng Xunrui believes that Zhang Xianzhong can have about 30,000 rogues under his command, which is the number of the top sky, and even if it is 30,000 people, Zhang Xianzhong is difficult to maintain, and he can't find so much grain and grass.

As for the reason for this, Zheng Xunrui will not deliberately explain, it is useless to say too much, waiting for the facts to speak is the best way, although in doing so, the time to exterminate the Liukou will be extended, and it will become impossible to completely exterminate the Liukou before June, but Zheng Xunrui did not intend to complete the task of exterminating the Liukou before June.

All of them were carried out in accordance with Zheng Xunrui's deployment, and the territory of Sichuan was very stable, and there was no rumor because of the entry of Zheng Jiajun.

On April 20, the news of the imperial court and the news of the dark line arrived in the capital of Kuizhou at the same time.

Seeing the imperial court's report and the information sent by the secret line, Zheng Xunrui locked himself in the room for a full day.

The first thing is that Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty proclaimed himself emperor in Shenyang on April 11, set the capital in Shenyang, changed the Yuan to Chongde, took the ninth year of Chongzhen as the first year of Chongde, changed the country name Jin to the Qing Dynasty, and changed the name of the clan to Manchuria.

The second thing is that Yin Yao Ximeng of Shuntian Mansion died of illness in the capital on the fourth day of the fourth month of April.

The information of the dark line is more detailed, focusing on the establishment of the Later Jin Tartars, Huang Taiji announced the proclamation of the emperor on April 11, established the Great Qing State, began to canonize the prince and the prince on April 15, etc., and canonized the Han people who surrendered on April 18.

There are a total of five people who were canonized as princes, namely Prince Li, Prince Daishan, Prince Zheng, Prince Jierhalangrui, Prince Dolgonsu, Prince Haogecheng, Prince Yuetuo, and a total of three people who were canonized as county kings, namely Wuying County King Azig Yu County King Duoduoying County King Adali, and the rest of the Belle Bezi have a lot of people, but after all, they have lost a lot of color with the prince and the county king.

What shocked everyone was that Huang Taiji canonized the surrendered Han people as kings.

Kong Youde was canonized as King Gongshun, Geng Zhongming was canonized as King Huaishun, and Shang Kexi was canonized as King Zhishun.

This letter of information is not great in the eyes of ordinary people, but Zheng Xunrui was shocked, he didn't want people to see his gaffe, so he locked himself in the house for a full day, and even Xu Wanghua couldn't disturb him.

What does it mean to build the country of the Later Jin Dynasty, Zheng Xunrui who crossed is very clear, although he created a strong Zheng family army, and over the years, the Zheng family army has been invincible, and the soul of the rogue is scattered, the leader of the thirteen rogue families in the Xingyang Conference, the leader of ten of them was captured or killed by the Zheng family army, only Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and King Shuntian are left, and the power of the rogue has also been fully contained, it can be said that in about a year at most, the Zheng family army can completely exterminate the rogues.

At this time, Houjin came out.

Zheng Xunrui knew that Zheng Jiajun's strongest opponent was still Houjin Tartar.

In terms of comparison of troops, the Houjin Tartars are much stronger, and their strength has reached more than 300,000, including the Mongolian battalions and Han soldiers of the Manchurian Eight Banners, among which the combat effectiveness of the Manchu Eight Banners is extremely strong, and it will never lose to the Zheng family's army.

From this reality, Zheng Jiajun's responsibility is extremely heavy.

The outside must first be at ease, this truth is not wrong, the inside can not be peaceful, how can it be possible to go all out to the outside, the Liukou is the biggest internal hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty, and every time the court exterminates the Liukou to a critical moment, the Houjin Tartars will take advantage of the weakness, so that the imperial court can not exterminate the Liukou wholeheartedly, and must draw troops to deal with the Houjin Tartars and protect the Beijing Division.

Now Daming is about to face this problem.

Zheng Xunrui, who is familiar with history, knows that there is still more than a month to go, and the Houjin Tartars are about to enter the customs and loot on a large scale, and this time the looting has caused heavy losses to Gyeonggi and Shandong.

Zheng Jiajun is exterminating the Liukou in Sichuan, at such a critical moment, whether to continue to stay in Sichuan, or go to Beizhili to fight against the Houjin Tartars, this is the choice Zheng Xunrui must make, and he can be sure that the imperial court will definitely issue an edict asking Zheng Jiajun to enter King Qin.

From a certain Cheng dù above, staying in Sichuan is the best choice, just let the Houjin Tartars plunder, so the blow to the imperial court is heavy, and it also makes the role of the Zheng family army more prominent, but let the Houjin Tartars plunder, it is the people who suffer, Zheng Xunrui, who crosses, can't bear to see such a tragic situation, and the Zheng family army must fight with the Houjin Tartars, so that they can get real sharpening and prepare for the decisive battle that will definitely appear in the future.

However, if you participate in the attack, it will definitely affect the matter of exterminating the Liukou.

The combat effectiveness of the Tianxiong Army and the White Pole Soldiers is indeed good, but unfortunately there is no ability to completely exterminate the Liukou, after these years of fighting, Zheng Xunrui has long understood that if you want to completely exterminate the Liukou, you still need the Zheng Jiajun to attack, the fear of the Liukou for the Zheng Jiajun has reached an unprecedented height, it can be said that no matter what the situation, as long as the Zheng Jiajun attacks, the Liukou will inevitably suffer a fiasco, and they have lost the battle in the face of the Zheng Jiajun.

Zheng Xunrui's thinking was very painful, he couldn't speed up the pace of exterminating the Liukou, the terrain around Kuizhou Mansion was too special, there were too many mountains and rivers, and it was impossible to fight on a large scale, and the Zheng family army needed to be familiar with the terrain here, and when he was really familiar with the terrain, I was afraid that the Zheng family army would soon go to Beizhili to fight against the Houjin Tartars.

Could it be that God doesn't want to destroy the exiles? (To be continued)
