With the opening of the gate of Xiaguan City, which hung the 'Longguan Lock Key' plaque, the psychological defense line of the Dali defenders also collapsed.

In the face of the overwhelming Ming army, they dropped their weapons, turned around and fled, and those who could not escape surrendered on their knees.

In the blink of an eye, this Xiaguan City, which has guarded Dali for hundreds of years since the time of the Southern Zhao, changed owners.

Yu Min's task in the thousand households has been completed, and the soldiers have to bandage their wounds and drink some water to relieve their breath.

He also lay on the head of the city tiredly, looking at the Ming army that was bravely pursuing, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, he survived again......

He didn't dare to look back, because under the city wall behind him, there were many familiar faces, who either died on the spot, or were seriously injured and shouted for military doctors to come for treatment, and the scene was unbearable.

In fact, from climbing the ladder to completely taking the city, it took a meal to gather the communists, but it exhausted all his physical strength and courage. The heart said that the siege battle was really not fought by people, if it weren't for the 5,000 Xuan Feng suddenly killed from behind, maybe he would be like those comrades, either dead or seriously injured.

Finally, he sat down slowly against the stack of arrows, looked at the white clouds in the sky, and began to miss his mother......

~~

The news of the destruction of the city of Xiaguan soon spread to Shangguan in the fierce battle, and the defenders of Shangguan had no will to fight, and their defensive strength was greatly reduced.

Jin Chaoxing was keenly aware of the enemy's panic, and immediately ordered an all-out attack, and the soldiers attacked the city in one breath, captured Shangguan, and the main force of Xiaguan formed a pincer attack on Dali City.

In fact, there are many defenders in Dali City, and Dali City itself is also a stronger and more complete city than Ashi Chi City, and there is even an acropolis, which is enough for all the soldiers and civilians to eat for a year.

However, the Dali regime was unprepared for the loss of the upper and lower passes. After all, it was a Xiongguan that had never been conquered, how could it be that it fell in less than half a day after the war began? Could it be that the dragon that guards Dali no longer manifests?

Dali's military and civilian collectives are confused, how can it be possible to organize a good city defense in this state?

It wasn't until he saw the Ming army following the rout and rushing into the Dali Gate that the officer guarding the gate woke up like a dream and shouted: "Close the city gate!" ”

However, it was too late. The routed soldiers who were driven by the Ming army did not listen to the order at all, and rushed into the city gate with all their might, so that the soldiers behind the door could not close the door at all, but were pressed against the wall by the door, and almost did not squeeze into a meat patty.

This Ming army, which rushed to the forefront, was Wang Bi's 5,000 selective front. Wang Bi is a thief, as soon as he saw that Dali's army began to rout, he immediately ordered to follow. Sure enough, he rushed into Dali Gate!

After seizing the Dali Gate, Wang Bi continued to lead the army to break in, captured two city gates in a row, and directly entered the Dali Palace......

The monarchs and ministers of Dali are conducting urgent deliberations in the silver palace, and it is indispensable to quarrel for the war.

Uncle Wang Duan Ming is naturally the main battle faction, saying that he will rely on Dali City to hold on, and wait until the summer when the Ming army does not retreat.

But Duan Shi didn't want to fight anymore, in his opinion, the loss of the upper and lower passes means that the dragon no longer guards Dali, which means that their actions are against the will of heaven, and they should comply with the mandate of heaven and surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

Duan Ming persuaded bitterly: "Your Highness, the Ming Dynasty came to destroy the foundation of my Duan family for four hundred years, and if you surrender, you will be a sinner of the Duan family!" ”

Duan Shizheng didn't know how to refute, the door was pushed open with a bang, and the chief guard rushed in in a panic: "Lord Wang, let's go, the Ming army is coming into the palace!" ”

"What?!" Duan Ming was stunned, this is too fast, right?!

People aren't ready yet......

At this time, Duan Shi's performance was stronger than Duan Ming's, only to see him smile miserably, and sighed: "That old official of the Ming army is right, the Duan clan took over the Wu Meng's clan, and the fortune has been extinct in the Yuan Dynasty, and it has been extended to this day, and it is no longer a matter of right and wrong. If you want to go against the sky, God will punish you......"

After saying that, he gave the order to surrender. It's just that before the order was delivered, the silver hall was surrounded by the Ming legions.

The wolf-like Ming army rushed into the palace and captured Duan Shi's uncle and nephew and other civil and military officials.

Duan Shi let the Ming army be tied up, closed his eyes in pain, and regretted it in his heart, if he surrendered early, maybe he could still protect the people in the city and the family in the palace. It's too late, and they're afraid they're going to be killed.

However, what Duan Shi didn't expect was that the Ming army actually did not commit any crimes, only imprisoned a cadre in the palace, and all the palace treasury was sealed, and they did not enter and loot, let alone insult the female dependents.

This shocked him very much, there is still such an army in the world? No wonder the Ming Emperor was able to destroy the withering and decaying, and in just a few years he expelled the Tartars and restored China.

Listening to his heartfelt praise, Wang Bi blushed a little.

Although it is true that not plundering people's property, insulting women, or harming the people is indeed the magic weapon that the Ming army relied on to get started, after so many years of being the king and hegemonic, the soldiers will inevitably breed arrogance. No matter how strict Boss Zhu's military discipline is, violations of these three articles also occur from time to time.

Especially Lan Yu's army, I don't know how many violations of rules and disciplines have been hidden.

Before the war, he quarreled with Dali again before the war, and he was really worried that the soldiers would do something ugly after entering the palace.

In that case, the civil officials will definitely take the opportunity to attack His Highness on a large scale. Especially in such a sensitive place as the Dali Palace, if something ugly happens, it is easy to be infinitely magnified and cover up His Royal Highness's glorious Pingdian exploits.

In that case, maybe His Royal Highness's third throne will be delayed again, which is something that Wang Bi does not want to see anyway.

He is not unfounded, when he was conquest before, the emperor clearly said that he could subdue the Southern Dynasty of Japan and bring Prince Huailiang back to the capital to apologize, so he was crowned the third king of the sixth child and let his three daughters-in-law be concubines.

Who knew that after His Royal Highness overfulfilled the task, the emperor used him as an excuse to mess up the deployment of pacifying Yunnan, and ordered him to gallop to Yungui to put out the fire. I didn't even mention the matter of sealing the king.

Wang Bi, who suffered a loss, can he not worry about being crowned yellow again this time?

It was with the firm belief that 'we must help His Highness get the third throne before the big wedding' that he resolutely took the task of leading the selection. It's just to be able to enter the palace one step ahead of everyone......

After entering the palace, the centralized custody of the female dependents is actually a kind of protection, and putting a seal on the palace treasury is also the same purpose.

My Wang Bi's daughter must be a princess, and she must not marry as a side concubine...... The old father said secretly.

~~

Dali can be, and Lanyu sent Wang Bi, Jin Chaoxing, and Cao Zhen to divide Heqing, Lijiang, and Xia Jinya non-stop, but they all met no resistance.

Because those local officials and chieftains in northwest Yunnan have been watching Dali, and they all know what to do when they see that the most powerful Dali regime is so vulnerable.

Even those places where the Ming army had not yet had time to attack, such as the Ping-Burma Xuanwei Division in western Yunnan and Cheli in southwest Yunnan, also came to surrender one after another.

The strategy set before the war with Boss Zhu 'It is advisable to divide the troops and tend to Dali, the first voice has been taken, and it is bound to collapse. The rest of the tribes can send people to summon them, and they don't have to worry about the soldiers.

At this point, the whole of Yunnan was pacified.
