At present, Wu Sangui and Li An have been facing each other in the Nanpan River for more than half a month. Both sides gathered nearly 200,000 troops.

On the second day after Jin Tongwu returned to Kunming, Li An convened the generals to discuss the matter. At the meeting, Li An and Ma Baoli disagreed and decided to fight with Wu Sangui in the Nanpan River.

Kunming was defended by 10,000 soldiers and horses led by Wu San Province, and all the rest of the soldiers and horses were taken to the Nanpan River by Li An.

Early morning on September 10th.

"For so long, why hasn't the court written yet?"

Wu Sangui was pacing in the big tent and asked Shang Kexi next to him.

"Not long after the emperor ascended the throne, the four auxiliary ministers are now busy just fighting for power, how can they take care of us! Presumably, the Forbidden City was already noisy at this time. Shang Kexi said slowly.

As Shang Kexi said. At this time, in the Forbidden City, there was a quarrel going on in the Taihe Palace.

"Ao Bai, you say it again, who will lead the troops to support?" Sukh Saha said loudly.

Although the four ministers still maintained calm on the surface in the early days, there was already an undercurrent surging behind their backs.

In history, from the fifth year of Kangxi, the struggle between the four ministers became increasingly intensified. Among them, the contradiction between Ao Bai and Sukh Saha is acute.

Ao Bai relied on his outstanding military exploits and domineering spirit, and he had many disagreements with Sukh Saha, and accumulated enmity to form enemies.

Sony, an old minister of the Four Dynasties, saw that Aobai and Suke Saha were like fire and water, but he was unable to solve it, and repeatedly petitioned the Holy Ancestor to govern himself. Curb Bilong and Aobai form a party under the same banner, and everything echoes Aobai. And Sukh Saha is shallow, alone, and powerless to fight.

In June of the sixth year of Kangxi, Sony passed away.

The class line is played, and the worship is in the first place. In July, Sukh Saha begged to guard the Fulin Mausoleum. Ao Bai took the opportunity to fabricate the 24 major crimes and killed Sukh Saha, clearing the way for his arbitrary dictatorship.

Although there is a smell of gunpowder between Ao Bai and Sukh Saha, both sides still maintain basic restraint and have not completely torn their faces.

"Say it a few times, the old man also wants to recommend Bambur to lead the troops." Ao Bai glared at Sukh Saha and said in a deep voice.

"Qi Qi Sheng, the minister recommended Prince An Yue Le as the handsome." After hearing this, Suke Saha did not hesitate to say loudly to the eight-year-old Kangxi.

Ao Bai and Sukh Saha said a word to me, and soon they quarreled.

"Quiet, this is the court, what does the commotion look like?" The Empress Dowager Zhaosheng (i.e., Empress Xiaozhuang Wen, Borzigit Bumubutai) saw that the two were arguing, and hurriedly spoke out to stop it.

Ao Bai and Sukh Saha also stopped arguing when they heard the Empress Dowager's voice.

"What do you think about this?" Seeing that the two had stopped arguing, the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng asked Sonny who was sitting below.

Due to Sony's old age and frailty, the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng specially set up a seat for Sony in the Taihe Palace.

Sonny stood up tremblingly and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager." The Yunnan incident is not a bad thing, in the eyes of the old minister, it is a good thing. ”

"Oh? How to talk about this matter, please talk about it in detail. The Empress Dowager Zhaosheng said with a puzzled look.

"The old minister said that it was a good thing for two reasons. First, the current dynasty has been decided, and all kinds of ruins are waiting to be rebuilt, and the Chinese treasury is empty. On the other hand, Wu Sangui is strong and strong, and the old minister is worried that he will not lose his tail.

The resurgence of Li Dingguo in Yunnan can just weaken Wu Sangui's power, and Li Dingguo is not easy to follow, and he will not be easily exterminated by Wu Sangui. When Wu Sangui and Li Dingguo are both defeated, our dynasty can reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Second, in the Jingxiang area of Chongqing, there are still a large number of Li Zicheng's remnants. This is a problem for our court's henchmen, and now we can take advantage of the war between Wu Sangui and Li Dingguo, and our court quickly sent troops to pacify the remnants of Li Zicheng. ”

After finishing speaking, Sonny was tired and out of breath, and the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng, who was seated, saw this and hurriedly asked the eunuch to help Sonny sit down.

"Wonderful, Suo Xiang's words are old and seek the country. As for the policy of reciprocal reciprocity, what do the secretaries think. After agreeing with Sony's strategy, the Empress Dowager asked the ministers below.

The next few people, Aobai, Kubilong, and Suke Saha, saw that Shoufu and the Empress Dowager were like this, so they had no choice but to express their support. The three Vice-Chancellors have all agreed, and the rest of the Ministers have no objections.

The ministers said in unison: "The ministers seconded the proposal." ”

"In this case, who can lead the troops to pacify the rest of Li Zicheng?" Seeing that all the ministers had no objections, the Empress Dowager opened her mouth to ask.

"The minister is willing to lead the troops to Pingding." Prince An Yue Le came out to recommend himself to the Empress Dowager.

Seeing this, Ao Bai immediately gave a look to the Bamber Mountain next to him. Bambur Mountain understood, and then also came out and said: "The minister is willing to receive the order, and the rest of Li Zicheng will be pacified within three months." ”

Seeing that both of them were going to pacify the rest of Li Zicheng, the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng was difficult to choose for a while.

At this time, Sonny in the seat spoke: "Don't fight. The emperor, the empress dowager, and the former governor of Sichuan, Li Guoqian, went to the fold and asked for three ways to send troops to encircle and suppress the rest of Li Zicheng. Lao Chen believed that Li Guoqian could be given full responsibility for the elimination of the rest of Li Zicheng's army. ”

"Just follow Suoxiang's words."

"There is another point, although this strategy is to kill people with a knife, it is necessary to send people to support Wu Sangui, at least the face of the court must do it." Seeing the Empress Dowager's approval, Sonny immediately reminded.

The Empress Dowager nodded when she heard this. Subsequently, the court began to discuss specific matters.

In the end, it was agreed that the soldiers of Shaanxi, Huguang, and Henan provinces would be transferred, plus the troops of Sichuan and the four provinces. With Li Guoqian as the main force, Xi'an general Fukhachan and deputy capital Du Min as deputies, they made every effort to encircle and suppress the rest of Li Zicheng.

Zhenghuang Banner Manchuria Tuhai is the general of the expedition to the south, leading 15,000 forbidden troops to aid Wu Sangui.

After the dispersal of the court, Ao Bai and Kupilon walked towards the palace gate together, and neither of them said much along the way.

After a while, the two walked out of the palace gate. As soon as he left the palace gate, Ao Bai's face sank.

Seeing that Aobai's face sank, he guessed that it must be that the emperor and the empress dowager attached importance to Sony, which caused Aobai's dissatisfaction.

"Humph! Half of this old thing's body is about to be buried in the ground, and he is still working on power in the court all day long. Ao Bai snorted twice and said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, he didn't say anything, but just urged Ao Bai to hurry up and get on the bridge.

After returning to the Aobai Mansion, as soon as he entered the back hall, Ji Bilong said: "There are many people with different eyes, and it is inconvenient to talk to adults. ”

Ao Bai nodded and said: "The emperor and the empress dowager only rely on Sony, and they don't take you and me in their eyes at all. ”

"Who's to say it isn't? With Sony pressed on our heads, you and I will never come out. ”

The two of them sat in the hall, and there was no good way to deal with Sony for a while.

Suddenly, Suppilon clapped his hands.

"Let's attack Sukh Saha first, and squeeze Sukh Saha down first. There is only one Sony left, and he is alone, and the power of the DPRK and China will be in the hands of you and me. And now is a good time to attack Sukh Saha.

A few days ago, when Sukh Saha's white flag was enclosed, there was a conflict with our yellow flag. Adults can use the matter of enclosure to start a siege against Sukh Saha. ”

"Okay, let's do it to Sukh Saha with the matter of enclosure." Ao Bai said in a deep voice.

Seeing Aobai's fierce appearance, Kubilon couldn't help but be afraid of Aobai.

Then the two discussed the details. After the army was decided, they began to besiege Sukh Saha.
