Chapter 280: Righteousness in the Eastern Army

Not long after Wang Ziqi's bold words of "the advantage is in me" were released, an incident that happened from behind his ass soon slapped his face.

Mu Tianbo reversed.

On the ninth day of the first month of March, Mu Tianbo used the excuse that the Chu army was approaching Yunnan Mansion and the garrison in the city was probably not enough, so he invited He Jiuyi and a group of Qin army generals loyal to Sun Kewang to go to the Qianguo Mansion for a banquet to discuss matters.

He Jiuyi and the others did not doubt him, and gladly accepted Mu Tianbo's invitation, and went directly to the Qianguo Mansion with only one or two personal soldiers.

Poor He Jiuyi, who followed Sun Kewang to fight in the south and north, survived the explosion in which Yongli was killed, but died in the hands of the knife and axe hand arranged by Mu Tianbo.

After ambushing He Jiuyi and a cadre of Qin generals, Mu Tianbo quickly arranged for his henchmen and the Qin generals he had bribed to take control of all the gates of Yunnan Prefecture and personally go to the garrison of Qin officers and soldiers.

The defenders of Yunnan Prefecture are all local sons and daughters recruited from YN Province, and their ancestors have lived and worked in peace and contentment under the governance of the Duke of Qianguo, so they naturally respect Mu Tianbo.

Under Mu Tianbo's personal appeasement and the attack of money and grain, except for a few Sun Kewang's diehard loyalists who resisted stubbornly, most of the Qin army chose to be loyal to the Qianguo Mansion and suppressed those diehard loyalists who resisted.

At the same time, he also immediately arrested the provincial officials such as the Yunnan Governor and the Bu Yi Liang Division set up by Sun Kewang, as well as the local officials of Yunnan Prefecture, except for those who stood on Mu Tianbo's side from the beginning, the rest of them were all imprisoned.

In just one night, Yunnan Mansion, the provincial capital of YN, changed the sky, and Sun Kewang's power in the mansion was wiped out by Mu Tianbo.

Early the next morning, Mu Tianbo sent a message to the whole province in the name of the Duke of Qianguo and the general of Zhengnan who was personally appointed by the imperial court, denounced Sun Kewang as a national thief who plotted to kill the first emperor, and announced that the whole province was anyway, and the Nanjing court was the right one.

The news spread quickly like wings and spread to all parts of Yunnan, causing an uproar.

Wang Ziqi, who was still in the Pengjiang Mansion to reorganize the army, heard the bad news that his home was stolen, and the whole person was immediately stupid, he couldn't believe his ears, the Qin army stationed in Yunnan Mansion had a full 5,000 people, and these 5,000 troops all rebelled with Mu Tianbo?

After the initial shock and anger, Wang Ziqi didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly began to stabilize the panicked military spirit because the retreat was cut off.

He understood that Mu Tianbo was rebelling at the moment, and he was sandwiched between the Chu army and Mu Tianbo, and the latter could cooperate with the Chu army to attack him at any time. Error-free updates @

What's more fatal is that Mu Tianbo's influence in Yunnan is quite far-reaching, he doesn't know how many people will follow in the entire Yunnan after Mu Tianbo's rebellion, just in case, he decided to evacuate the Pengjiang Mansion and retreat to Qujing.

However, Wang Ziqi's worries are obviously unnecessary, Mu Tianbo's influence can only affect the people under Sun Kewang's iron-fisted rule over the years, and the local government is Sun Kewang's people, so there are almost few responders except for those toasts.

By the time Wang Ziqi saw this, it was too late, because Li Mingzhong had successfully seized this opportunity and hurriedly marched through the Pengjiang Mansion while all parts of Yunnan were still immersed in the turmoil of Mu Tianbo's rebellion, and arrived at the outskirts of Yunnan Mansion to join Mu Tianbo.

After Li Mingzhong's soldiers and horses arrived in Yunnan Mansion, the situation around Yunnan Mansion was stabilized, and Tusi, who decided to follow Mu Tianbo anyway, was also transferring troops to march to Yunnan Mansion.

Of course, there are also some people who intend to take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters, and they directly attack the usually hostile Tusi in the name of following Mu Tianbo anyway, or attack the cities controlled by the Han people, burning, killing and looting, and strengthening their own strength.

The turmoil of Mu Tianbo's rebellion did not only affect Yunnan, after the news reached Guizhou, those former Ming army generals who still had Yongli in their hearts decided to respond to the uprising after some consideration.

On 23 March, after discussions with the Chu army, Liu Zhenguo, who was stationed in Dushan Prefecture to confront the Chu army, and Guo Liai, who was stationed in Dushan, decided to go anyway.

The two communicated privately in front of them anyway, and they both thought that they should give a letter of surrender before joining the Chu army, so that they could not be looked down upon in the sequence of the Chu army after surrendering.

The goal of the two of them naturally went to Zhang Sheng, Zhang Sheng, the Qin army who was stuck between them and Duyun Mansion City. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 280: Righteousness in the Eastern Army

Although his troops were greatly damaged after being overshadowed by Nanming Sanma, he was still reused by virtue of his loyalty to Sun Kewang, and continued to deploy on the front line after replenishing his troops.

At the same time, it is also to guard against Liu Zhenguo and Guo Liai, two generals who do not belong to Sun Kewang's own people.

Poor Zhang Sheng didn't know that he was being targeted, Liu Zhenguo and Guo Li Ai explained their thoughts to Lai Xun of the Chu army who was confronting them, and Lai Xun naturally agreed, and sent Chen Shitai to cooperate with the two.

The idea of the two was to let Chen Shitai pretend to attack alone, sell a flaw, and let Zhang Sheng agree to join forces to attack, and as soon as the battle began, they would turn against each other and encircle Zhang Sheng.

After determining the battle plan, Liu Zhenguo personally sent a letter to Zhang Sheng's army, in which he reported the movements of the Chu army obtained by Liu Zhenguo, and he claimed that the Chu army was marching to Dushan with strong troops and horses, intending to join the soldiers and horses going north of Guangzhou, hoping that Zhang Sheng could send troops to attack this Chu army together and destroy the plan of the Chu army.

Zhang Sheng did not believe it after receiving the report, but sent scouts to investigate, and saw that the Chu army had indeed sent troops, and he trusted the information proposed by Liu Zhenguo a little.

However, with the lesson of being put on the table by Nanming Sanma before, Zhang Sheng was still a little more cautious, and he replied that he would send troops to help, but the pressure of the Chu army was in front, and his troops were not so fast, so he could only let Liu Zhenguo and Guo Li Ai send troops to fight first.

Liu Zhenguo, who got Zhang Sheng's reply, couldn't help but curse the old fox, in order to avoid Zhang Sheng's suspicion, he had to count the soldiers and horses, and sent troops to kill Chen Shitai with Guo Liai.

Seeing that the two of them sent troops, Zhang Shengcai slowly led the army to leave the camp tent and rushed to the scheduled battlefield, so where would Liu Zhenguo and Guo Liai really fight with the Chu army, Guo Liai deliberately slowed down the speed of the march and let Liu Zhenguo fight the Chu army alone.

After the two sides officially engaged, only one face-to-face, Liu Zhenguo pretended to be invincible, retreated in the direction of Zhang Sheng, Chen Shitai led the army to pursue, in order to strengthen credibility, Liu Zhenguo's soldiers lost their armor one by one, and they couldn't see the clue at all.

Seeing that Liu Zhenguo was defeated so quickly, Zhang Sheng couldn't help but feel contempt for Liu Zhenguo in his heart, but he still ordered to form a military formation and stepped forward to meet the friendly army.

Liu Zhenguo slapped his horse and fled to Zhang Sheng's side, he looked horrified, and said to Zhang Sheng: "It's not that our army doesn't work hard, but the Chu army is too strong, and His Royal Highness the Prince is not unjustly defeated in Hunan!" ”

Zhang Sheng nodded approvingly, he remembered the defeat he had seen on the battlefield in Hunan, and then looked at the defeated Qin soldiers in front of him, and he didn't doubt that this was an act at all.

He was distracted, so he gave Liu Zhenguo a chance, only to see that Liu Zhenguo suddenly pulled out his saber, and when the knife fell, he cut off Zhang Sheng's head.

Immediately, he shouted loudly: "Sun Kewang plotted to kill the first emperor, the crime cannot be punished, Zhang Sheng is attached to the rebel party, and has been killed by my Liu Zhenguo, you have all put down your weapons, you can avoid death!" ”

When the words fell, the lieutenant general beside him also shouted: "Kill Sun Rebellious!" Righteousness is in the Eastern Army! ”

"Righteousness is in the Eastern Army!"

The soldiers under Liu Zhenguo's command all shouted loudly, at this time, where did they still have the embarrassed appearance of just defeated, they picked up the weapons they took out of nowhere, and killed Zhang Sheng's subordinates who were stunned by this change.

Zhang Sheng was dead, and the rest of the people naturally had no intention of fighting again, they all screamed and fled backwards, some of them were still loyal to Sun Kewang's generals, who tried to collect the rout and resisted stubbornly, but were soon suppressed by the Chu army that caught up.

The officers and soldiers of Chu shouted "those who surrender will not die" while pursuing, and in their shouts, some of the fleeing Qin troops gradually gave up their escape and fell to the ground to surrender to the Chu army, and the soldiers and horses led by Zhang Shengqin were easily captured by the Chu army.

Subsequently, Liu Zhenguo led the troops of the headquarters to change the flag of the Chu army to kill Zhang Shengjun's camp non-stop, and Zhang Sheng's general Li Chengjue, who stayed in the camp, saw that Zhang Sheng was dead, and simply opened the door and surrendered.

Liu Guo and the others were anyway, Zhang Shengsheng died, and the south gate of Duyun Mansion was empty and open to the Chu army.

Lai Xun separated the surrendered soldiers of Zhang Sheng's troops into the army of Liu Zhenguo and Guo Liai, and ordered them to be the vanguard and swept the divisions in the southern part of Duyun Province.

If it weren't for Feng Shuangli leading the army to aid Dan Xingsi in time and blocking the route of the Chu army to continue westward, then the Chu army would probably directly enter Guiyang Mansion and threaten Sun Kewang, who was sitting in Guiyang.

Although subsequently. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 280: Righteousness in the Eastern Army

The road to the west was blocked by Feng Shuangli, but this did not mean that the Chu army stopped there, Lai Xun ordered Chen Shitai and Lin Zhong to lead the army north, intending to completely block the retreat of the Qin army in Duyunfu.

The actions of the Chu army undoubtedly caused a huge fear of the Qin army in Duyun Mansion, even if Sun Kewang transferred troops and reinforcements in time, it still did not save the defeat - Su Dingyuan launched a fierce attack at the right time, and the Qin army's defense line was completely defeated, from Duyun Mansion to Leping Division, the mountains and fields were full of fleeing Qin troops.

Defeated, completely defeated.

Mu Tianbo rebelled, Qianzhong was lost, and two bad news fell heavily on Sun Kewang's head, making him unable to control his emotions anymore. _o_m

That night, Sun Kewang directly killed dozens of maidservants and attendants in the palace of King Qin with his sword, and his roar and roar made the soldiers guarding outside tremble.

Mu Tianbo's rebellion also made Sun Kewang completely lose trust in those former Ming ministers, and he directly launched a killing spree in Guiyang, hunting down and killing those courtiers of the original Yongli court, and removing the generals with the background of the Yongli Dynasty.

Sun Kewang's "Great Purge" suddenly caused a shock in the government and the opposition, and everyone in the court and China was in danger, for fear that one day the Qin army would come to the door and arrest him and put him in prison, and many people were desperate to think that Sun Kewang had gone crazy after suffering a series of blows.

Indeed, judging from Sun Kewang's killing moves, he does seem to be crazy, and even Sun Zhengqi went to dissuade him, but he was almost killed by him with his sword, but fortunately, the attendants around him stopped him in time, and Sun Zhengqi escaped.
