I adored you in my previous life, and I respect you in this life. But if I want to reverse the sky and repeat Huaxia, I have to dominate, this is fate.

Zhu Yongxing put on a low posture and went out of the city to greet Li Dingguo, but he repeatedly reminded himself in his heart that he should behave neither humbly nor arrogant today, but he must not let others look down on him.

……………

"His Royal Highness Min decreed that the soldiers accompanying the King of Jin were unswerving, loyal and courageous, which can be praised. When you meet, you don't need a big salute, just a military salute. ”

Li Dingguo looked at Ma Bao, the king of Ruyang, who came to pass the word, and shook his head lightly: "His Royal Highness Min is benevolent, but he can't let the soldiers lose their manners." ”

According to the system set by Zhu Chongba, no matter how high the status of ordinary people is, they can't compare with the people of the Zhu family, even if they are just a general of the Zhenguo who is passed on from the sideline, or even a lieutenant and the like, as long as they are members of the Zhu family, officials have to kowtow when they see them, even if they are elders and scholars. What's more, Zhu Yongxing is the son of King Min, and he has the name of staying in the imperial court, if Li Dingguo is not a fake Huang Cheng, he should also pay a big respect.

"It's okay, it's okay." Ma Bao saw that Li Dingguo seemed to have the intention of refusing, and hurriedly explained: "The king doesn't know, His Royal Highness Min ordered the abolition of the army to bow down when he was in Tengchong, but he thanked the generals of the army for being loyal to the court when the country was in danger, and fought bloody for the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty." ”

"That's right!" Li Dingguo pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness Min has the intention of raising the status of the generals in the army, and this king also benefits from it, so it is good to rely on His Royal Highness Min." ”

Seeing that the order was handed down, Ma Bao breathed a sigh of relief, and was one horse head behind Li Dingguo, accompanying him. Li Dingguo smiled and beckoned, motioning for him to come closer and speak.

Although he is already the king of the county, he is one level shorter than Li Dingguo, and Li Dingguo's years of accumulated power still make Ma Bao and others awe-inspired. Therefore, Ma Bao was very respectful, urged the horse to take two steps forward, bowed slightly, and waited for Li Dingguo to ask.

"After His Royal Highness Min first arrived in Tengchong, he sent someone to deliver a letter, and the method of removing miasma and curing diseases was also quite effective, and there were many generals and soldiers in our army." Li Dingguo's face had calmed down, and he said slowly: "I heard that His Royal Highness Min has been given divine power, but I don't know if it's true?" ”

"The last general thinks that there should be no doubt." Ma Bao replied in a low voice: "Not only is it a way to remove miasma, but His Royal Highness Min can also use the Yangmen array to help the power of artillery, so that our army can pull out three villages in one day and chase a great victory of nearly a hundred miles." ”

"Oh, you tell me more." Li Dingguo's eyes flashed, and he opened his mouth to urge.

Ma Bao sorted out his thoughts and began to tell the story of the Tengchong War, before retreating to Tengchong, he said it briefly, and then he participated in it personally, so he spoke in detail.

"Line Guoan has been in battle for a long time, and it is not bad to be able to put out a yin × gate formation in a hurry." Li Dingguo interjected while listening, "What His Royal Highness Min said: 'Cutting down crimes for the sky, there are no taboos', seems to be a bit overbearing. This is common knowledge in the army, and I think His Highness does not have such experience. ”

"The king's words are very true." Ma Bao echoed and said: "If it weren't for the last general's waiting, His Royal Highness Min probably wouldn't have drawn his sword and prayed, so that the artillery would be more powerful and break the enemy with one drum." ”

"The sword is Shang Fang's sword?" Li Dingguo asked again.

"The king guessed as soon as he guessed." Ma Bao didn't know what was going on, so he had to be perfunctory.

That may be the power of the Imperial Gift Shang Fang's sword, but Huang Cheng in his hand doesn't see any helper function? Li Dingguo was still puzzled in his heart, but he still admired Zhu Yongxing for daring to come to the battle in person. The children of the Zhu family, except for the two emperors of Longwu and Shaowu, who had personally conquered the expedition to boost morale, I am afraid that there is no such heroic act.

Thinking of Yongli entering Burma and abandoning the country, Li Dingguo couldn't help but sigh secretly, if His Majesty had a little bit of responsibility and courage, why did he need the clan to stay behind to save people's hearts.

"Has His Royal Highness Min ever said about saving the car and returning home?" Li Dingguo put aside the sudden emotion and asked faintly.

Ma Bao hesitated for a moment and said, "His Royal Highness Min once said that if you don't return to Kunming, you can't meet it. He also said: If our army forcibly enters the small state of Burma, it will be frightened and refuse to fight; If you kill or injure them, you will be enemies with them, and you will be of no benefit to your majesty. And if our army can defeat the Tartars, and the strength of the army will rise greatly, and we will be afraid of our army, we can discuss with them where to meet Luan's danger. ”

Li Dingguo pondered for a while, this is somewhat similar to his thoughts, although it is not the same, it is also a safe way. It's just that to recover Kunming, how easy is it to talk about it?

Seeing that Li Dingguo was silent, Ma Bao added: "His Royal Highness Min intends to launch a large-scale campaign again after the rainy season in September, and the sincere cooperation of the three armies may not be impossible to recover the lost land and severely defeat the Qing army." ”

Armed forces? King Li Jin frowned slightly, and then understood. Zhao Wang Bai Wenxuan in Tengchong, Longling, western Yunnan, his own army in central Yunnan Mo Nai, Jingdong, His Royal Highness Min led the troops in eastern Yunnan and Annam, if launched at the same time, and then connected with the Tusi, it is indeed possible to make the Qing army in Yunnan Province difficult to take care of.

But who should be the leader of these three armies, and who should obey the orders? Li Dingguo couldn't help but smile bitterly when he thought of this. Presumably, His Royal Highness Min has already discussed with Bai Wenxuan and has a tacit understanding, so now he is waiting for himself to express his position, right? If he still talks about fake Huang Cheng, although he will not fight each other and fight among himself, His Royal Highness Min and Bai Wenxuan will also get rid of themselves, and the two armies will act together. Moreover, His Majesty sent the clan to stay in Yunnan Province, didn't he mean to blame himself?

From Bai Wenxuan's letter, Li Dingguo has seen Bai Wenxuan's attitude towards Zhu Yongxing, respectful and admiring, although there are no clear words, but the meaning of His Royal Highness Wei Min has been fully revealed. What is heroic and decisive, God's providence, and the hope of Zhongxing...... Words of beauty, without stinginess.

It is necessary to take into account the overall situation and unite sincerely. Li Dingguo repeatedly reminded himself in his heart, and also suppressed a trace of dissatisfaction in his heart. How Guiyang was lost, how it was driven out of Kunming by the Qing army, and how the defeat of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces was caused by the defeat of the two provinces, the lesson is vivid, and Li Dingguo couldn't help but let out a long sullen breath.

"His Royal Highness Min wants to set up a staff headquarters, which is composed of battlefield generals, to plan operational plans and coordinate the actions of the three armed forces." Ma Bao saw that Li Dingguo's face was uncertain, so he had to reveal more inside information, "His Royal Highness Zhao may send Zhenshuo, Bo and Wu Sansheng and the general soldier Chen Yiyao, His Royal Highness Min seems to have appointed the Duke of Xuguo Ma Weixing and the Duke of Lu Qi Sansheng, I don't know what the king wants?" Is there a suitable candidate? ”

The General Staff Headquarters is another new term, it should be a praise painting in the army! Li Dingguo bowed slightly, and said lightly: "The functions and powers and composition of this staff headquarters, please also ask King Ruyang to explain in detail, so that this king can know." ”

His Royal Highness Min once said: Some commanders in history do not need others to praise paintings, but think about problems by themselves, make up their own minds, and the people around them just implement their will. But this kind of superstar like the king is difficult to show in a hundred years. Therefore, it is necessary to form an advisory body......"
