On the banks of the Nu River, the Qing army was crossing the increasingly turbulent southern river in an orderly manner.

The Appeasement Division of Lujiang on the west bank has been occupied by the Qing army at this moment. In the office of Appeasement Division, Anyuan Jingkou General Duoluoxin, Prince Aixinjueluo*Doni, Duoluobele Aixinjueluo*Shangshan, Duoluobeile Ai

Xinjueluo Dulan, the first-class minister of the bodyguard, Dingxi General Shumulu, Aixing'a, the minister of internal affairs, Zhengnan General Xianghuang Banner, Manchuria Gushan'e Zhenguarjia, Zhao Butai and other leading figures rushed to the main hall of the Appeasement Department.

The strange thing is that Doni kicked out all the servants who were serving him. Moreover, not only those who are eligible to attend the meeting on weekdays, such as Aisin Gioro Gantu and Zakana

, the Zhenghong Banner Mongolian Gushan Ezhen Fucha*Jixiha, the Xiangbai Banner Mongolian Gushan Ezhenbor Jigit*Saribu, the Xianglan Banner Mongolian Gushan Ezhenjuercha* Sunta and other senior officers failed to

At the meeting, even the commander-in-chief of the army, such as Pingxi King Wu Sangui, was sent by Doni to Bawan near the mountains to prepare a forward position for the army.

"Your Majesty, this..."

"That servant Hong Chengchou doesn't have the guts. He would never dare to send us news that isn't confirmed."

The atmosphere in the main hall was extremely depressing. When Hong Chengchou's handwriting spread, all the senior Manchu and Qing officials were shocked. When Dulan was about to question it, he was immediately met with a vicious rebuttal by Doni.

What Hong Chengchou mentioned in his handwriting was Jidu's defeat of Quzhou at the beginning of the first month. Jidu informed Hong Chengchou of this matter and asked him to take precautions. After confirming this, Hong Chengchou immediately rushed eight hundred miles to

He sent his cronies to the front of the army and handed them over to Doni by name, in order to prevent the news of the Eight Banners Army's defeat in Quzhou from shaking the morale of the country-destroying army.

In addition, Hong Chengchou suggested that Doni should get rid of Yongli and Li Dingguo as soon as possible. As long as the emperor of Ming Dynasty and the presiding King of Jin are eliminated, no matter how many Ming troops are in Yunnan and Guizhou, they will be nothing more than a piece of loose sand. Wu Sangui can completely let Wu Sangui fight

Solve it slowly. Demon

The reason is that after the Ming army achieved a great victory, the fall of Guangxin Prefecture was a foregone conclusion. With Chen Kai's temperament of finding opportunities to find opportunities, he would definitely attack the prefectures and counties on the east bank of the empty Poyang Lake, and it would be impossible to defend those places.

It can be sustained. When the Ming army controls the Yangtze River sections in Hukou and Pengze counties, the Qing government's transportation of grain from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to Huguang will inevitably be greatly disrupted. What's more, the complete loss of Zhejiang is inevitable.

How much food can Nanzhili transport to Huguang under the military front?

When Hong Chengchou sent the letter, not long after Doni and the others arrived in Kunming, the letter informing Hong Chengchou about the Kunming warehouse was on the way. However, the distance from Changsha to Kunming is 2,600 to 700 miles, so it is possible that two couriers were on the way.

I met him before, but I couldn't immediately let Hong Chengchou know about Yongli's hospitality.

The problem of food is not a problem for the time being, but what will happen in half a year? When Jidu was in Quzhou, he had such a large army and was defeated by the Ming army. Although they did not know how much the loss was, there was no doubt whether Jidu could hold Hangzhou.

, and even in Nanjing, they did not dare to have much hope. And Yunnan was clearly unable to attract much oil and water, and Hong Chengchou's Huguang could not independently support this country-destroying army. Is it possible that when the time comes?

Are we going to starve to death together?

The letter was received by Doni ten days ago, which is why he hurriedly brought up the army to chase Wu Sangui and Zhao Butai.

Otherwise, with Wu Sangui and Zhao Butai as the vanguard, at most he only needs to bring part of the Eight Banners Army as a back-up force, and the rest of the troops can disperse and control various key points to prevent other Ming armies from threatening the Qing army's food routes.

As it is now, only his deputy Duoluoping County Prince Luo Keduo and his clan clan Xianglan Banner Manchuria Gushan Ezhenluotuo are left to guard Kunming and Dali, two hubs six hundred miles apart, while a large number of palaces along the way will be guarded.

Only a negligible number of feudal soldiers and green battalion soldiers were left to guard the county capital.

"The barbarian surnamed Chen is also very cunning and cunning. Now that Prince Zheng has been defeated again, Hong Chengchou's servant may not be able to defend Huguang."

"Then we have to penetrate Jiangxi first. Hasn't Dasu always been known as a famous general? Isn't it a good time for everyone to take a look?" Yao

"That's right, that slave of Hong Chengchou seized all the southwest meridian markers and sent 10,000 green soldiers gathered from all over Huguang. Oh, by the way, Ben Beile also wronged him. He also sent Ma Yaozi

Come over here, and there are about two hundred green soldiers throwing bottles and cans."

"Okay, Mr. Beile, I heard about this, slave. Hong Chengchou called those green soldiers bombardiers. It seems that he learned the trick from that barbarian named Chen."

"Bah! Throw in a few bottles and jars and you'll be treated like a treasure. Even if you're not a group of green soldiers, I can't see how this slave has any respect for himself. I really feel that if the emperor pampers him, then he can be compared to us Manchurians."

Look. Look how proud he was when he squeezed out Alzin's slaves. Alzin died of illness in the Guizhou Army last year, so maybe he took advantage of him."

Several people chatted among themselves, and they were still dissatisfied with Hong Chengchou's conservatism. Even Hong Chengchou specifically mentioned that there were two generals he particularly admired among the Green Camp soldiers, one was named Sun Sike and the other was Zhao Liangdong.

Everyone knows that the man in front is the son of Sun Degong, who sold Guangning. As for the one in the back, I have never heard of it. It is possible that it is a pheasant cub that Hong Chengchou picked up from some grass nest.

They were forced to withhold the Southwest Meridian, which made them face the situation that many things that could have been solved directly by the Green Camp soldiers had to be handled by the Eight Banners Army themselves. How could they not be angry?

Seeing that the topic was about to go sideways, Doni snorted coldly and said directly: "Whether Hong Chengchou can defend Huguang or not, we must deal with the false emperor and the old thieves as soon as possible. Prince Zheng's side

, nine times out of ten, we will not be able to defend Jiangsu and Zhejiang."

"Hmph, this little Prince Zheng is much worse than him." Yao

"Hey, Lord Beile, you are the only one who dares to say this. We slaves don't dare to be disrespectful to our master. But, I think the prince is right. We have to get out of Yunnan as soon as possible.

Instead of helping Hong Chengchou's slave guard Huguang, we have to rush back to Jiangsu and Zhejiang. If we can't keep that rich land, the grain will be gone. What will happen to the hard-core crops of so many masters and slaves in the capital!"

"Then let Wu Sangui have more strength. Didn't the Emperor say that Yunnan and Guizhou will be granted a vassal status in the future just like the three servants of the Dongjiang Army? Since this place is his after conquering it,

Why bother asking us to help him?"

"Master Shu Mulu's words are correct, why do you think so?"

"Can those Liaoxi soldiers defeat the enemy? Don't forget, Prince Jingjin and the three servants of the Dongjiang Army were all killed by the enemy."

"Isn't there something about that barbarian named Chen? Now that barbarian named Chen is not here, I can't give him a slap in the face."

"Come on, ask Zhao Butai, is it safe for him to win the battle at Zheyan River?"

"Enough!" Demon

Historically, Zheng Chenggong severely damaged the two white flags of the Qing Dynasty in the Xiamen Hai Dajie, which directly led to Suk Saha being defeated by Obai in the subsequent political struggle. No one would be willing to lose his slaves in vain, and this is also irrelevant.

The deep love between master and slave only lies in the fact that whoever has more slaves in his hands, his slaves are more capable of fighting, and whoever speaks among the Eight Banners will be tougher.

The Ming army had a tradition of having soldiers as generals, and the Eight Banners Army also suffered from similar chronic problems. However, Donnie had already figured it out on the road. Zheng Chenggong was about to sweep Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Chen Kai was using his old fists against Hong Chengchou.

Well, all they can really count on is the Eight Banners Army.

"In the battle of Zheyan River, the old thief was beaten to pieces by Zhao Butai. At Yulong Pass a few days ago, Bai Erhetu's slave only led so many people, and Bai Wenxuan, the barbarian, didn't even dare to defend.

In the end, I couldn't run away, and I even lost my gold seal. I feel that the Western thief has become frightened, and now I have to seize the time to catch up. It is serious not to let the false emperor and the old thief escape!"

What Doni said was the consensus of the Qing army. Apart from that, the prince of the Jin Dynasty was captured and killed by the Qing army. What could I do? What could I dare to do? Shouldn't I just burn the chain bridge and escape?

Moreover, according to the map that Sun Kewang presented to the Qing court, Yongli and Li Dingguo must have fled to Tengyue Prefecture. Further west is the Zhandafu Appeasement Department. If they don't speed up their pace now, it is impossible to tell whether this pair of monarchs and ministers will

He fled to Myanmar.

Regarding Yunnan, many members of the Eight Banners Army had complaints such as "It has never been so difficult to go on an expedition and the horses were exhausted. It has never been so bad." Even the Manchu Niulu, the most veteran soldier, said so, let alone

It is said that they are the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Army. And the place in Myanmar is clearly a barren mountain and river even more barren than Yunnan. They are not afraid of the unruly people, they are just afraid that they will be completely stuck in the quagmire and cannot extricate themselves. For them, this country will destroy them.

The large national army is not a good thing for the Manchu Qing court!

A consensus was reached on this point. In the subsequent pursuit, the Eight Banners Army will take on more important responsibilities. Of course, their targets are only Yongli and Li Dingguo. As long as these two important figures are solved,

The Eight Banners Army will withdraw immediately, and Wu Sangui will be responsible for the suppression work behind Yunnan and Guizhou. He cannot be allowed to eat the food and wages of the Qing Dynasty in vain. Demon

Early the next morning, the marching sequence into the mountain was also re-adjusted—it was originally with Wu Sangui's vassal soldiers as the forerunner, Zhao Butai as Wu Sangui's back-up force, and Doni as Zhao Butai's back-up force. Now it has become

A series of Mongolian Eight Banners troops such as Jixiha, Sharibu, and Sunta served as the vanguard of the army, with Zhao Butai leading the troops and horses of the banner under unified command; followed by the main force of Doni's Eight Banners Army, as the backbone of the army, in order to facilitate

If Li Dingguo is in danger, he can be defeated in one battle; behind him are Wu Sangui's vassal soldiers and the green camp.

Of course, not all Green Camp soldiers are qualified to join the army. Didn't Hong Chengchou want to promote those two Green Camp generals and let them serve as rearguards for the army? As for the other Green Camp soldiers, they simply stayed in Bawan and Lujiang to appease them.

Secretary, the Eight Banners uncle thinks that their movements are slow and like turtles, which will delay important events.

This marching sequence highlights the word "quick", especially those of the Eight Banners of Mongolia. They are mainly cavalry. Once they leave the mountain, they can gallop their horses and whips straight into Tengyue Prefecture. They must catch up with the Ming army before they flee to Burma.

yes.

The army filed in and moved as fast as possible along the winding mountain road. Earlier than Zhao Butai, there was a group of Garbush composed of eleven people led by a Manchu forward commander with a yellow flag.

Xian Chaoha's outpost team, their mission is to serve as the outpost for the army, and they can be regarded as returning to their old profession.

The horse exploration team quickly jumped into the mountains and saw the first fence after walking about ten miles. They skillfully divided the labor and cooperated. Two people dismounted and demolished the fence, while the rest stayed on guard under the leadership of the forward school. Soon, they

The fence was dismantled, but there was still no movement at all. So, there was the second and third one.

After all demolition, and after confirming that there were no obstacles ahead, one of them returned and reported to Zhao Butai, while the rest continued to move forward. The road was blurry, and only a few limited footprints could be vaguely discerned to tell them that clearly

The army passed here at least a day ago. So they mounted their horses and accelerated along the mountain path with their proud equestrian skills.

At the same time, a carriage surrounded by about a dozen servants and guards also quietly drove out of the Ming Army's Olive Po Camp. They followed the path the Ming Army came from, crossed the Longchuan River, and headed towards the distance.

Heading to Yamaguchi. Demon

Inside the carriage, a civil servant wearing a crimson official robe with Yunyan patches embroidered on it was sitting on a cushion made of several soft cushions. Even so, every bump of the carriage still made him grin.

Ichiban. But even so, he still did not let the carriage slow down. Instead, he kept urging the coachman to rush to the mountain pass.

It didn't take long for them to arrive near the mountain pass. From here, they could see the corner of the mountain road at a glance. I believe they could also see them from the corner of the mountain road.

So, the civil servant called the book boy sitting next to the coachman to enter the carriage. After a long time, a group of light cavalry with mainly yellow armor and red trim rushed out of the corner. The moment they spotted them, they immediately reined in their horses and watched.

"Master, Tatar, uh, the Qing soldiers have arrived."

Hearing this, the civil servant leaned out of the carriage. The hair on his head was ruined and only a piece of money was left. The rat tail fell lifelessly on the back of his head: "Quick, go over. I lost my weapon halfway. Go up and tell me."

They, my official position and name, told them that I am willing to submit to the Qing Dynasty, and that I have extremely important military information that I want to inform Prince Pingxi face to face."

The captain of the servants followed the order and left, while the civil servant did not retreat into the carriage, but while watching the group of Manchu Qingqi, he once turned his head and looked in the direction of Mopan Mountain with gritted teeth.

"Li Dingguo, since you don't know right from wrong, don't blame me, Lu Guisheng, for not caring about the friendship between host and guest!"
