?Just when Nanjing decided that Shang Yi would officially proclaim himself emperor, Liu Wenxiu, who was released by Li Dingguo on the Guizhou front line, returned to the camp of the Chinese army and told Li Dingguo and others about the negotiation results of Sun Kewang and others.-
.
When he returned, Sun Kewang and Ai Nengqi were also in conflict over how to resist the Chinese army, because in the Battle of Shaziling, the Daxi Army returned in a crushing defeat. Now there are only more than 60,000 people left in the entire army, and the Xiang army was basically wiped out.
, can only stick to Pu'an Prefecture.
Although the Daxi Army has not had a small force now, Sun Kewang and Ai Nengqi knew that fighting the Chinese army was self-destruction, and the only way was to live in the city and defend. However, from Guizhou to Yunnan, it was not only Pu who could only enter the city.
Anzhou is a road that can be taken, but if all the troops are concentrated in Pu'anzhou to defend, the Chinese army can also enter Yunnan from other places. If the troops are divided to guard each important route, the troops will be dispersed and they will be defeated one by one by the Chinese army.
Therefore, the two felt very embarrassed.
Originally, the two had great expectations for Wu Sangui, but now the Yongli court has been destroyed. After losing this flag, there is no friendship between the Daxi Army and Wu Sangui. On the contrary, there is still a grudge, so it is not good.
They went directly to find Wu Sangui, but during this period the envoy sent by Wu Sangui actually found Pu'anzhou. The two realized that Wu Sangui was unable to protect himself and could not count on him at all.
Therefore, the two of them were at a loss and had no choice. At this moment, Liu Wenxiu returned to Pu'anzhou.
The two of them were surprised and happy when they saw Liu Wenxiu. Although Liu Wenxiu's broken leg was not yet well, judging from her complexion, it is not a difficult escape now. There must be something wrong here. Sure enough, after meeting
Liu Wenxiu told the story of his meeting with Li Dingguo and the Chinese army's plan to surrender the Western Army.
After Sun Kewang and Ai Nengqi heard this, Ai Nengqi immediately said that he could accept it. He could not beat him now. Moreover, the conditions offered by the Nanjing government were good, and the Yongli court was also destroyed. It would be better to surrender to the Nanjing government, and Li Dingguo was there.
There will definitely be no mistakes in response, and Sun Kewang also knows that surrender is the only way now. The conditions offered by the Chinese army are actually good in general. You can surrender first. In this regard, the generals of the Western Army are more flexible than Wu Sangui.
Much more, he was not greedy for the power of separatism and independence. At that time, Zhang Xianzhong accepted the revenge of the Ming Dynasty many times, surrendered and rebelled again.
But what made Sun Kewang feel dissatisfied was that according to the conditions of the Chinese Army, he and Liu Wenxiu and Ainengqi were naturally on the same side, while Sun Kewang hoped to completely overwhelm the two of them in power after surrender, but this cannot be said directly
After saying that, Sun Kewang said that he basically agreed to surrender, but he hoped that Li Dingguo could come to Pu'anzhou in person, and talk about some details in person in front of his brothers, and try his best to win more benefits for himself.
After listening to Sun Kewang's opinion, Liu Wenxiu and Ai Nengqi did not think much, thinking that it would be better to have a private talk with Li Dingguo first. If they could win more benefits for themselves, of course it would be good.
So Liu Wenxiu dragged his broken leg and came to the camp of the Chinese Army and invited Li Dingguo to Pu'anzhou.
Luo Yuanbin and other generals of the Jiangxi Military Region were worried that this was a conspiracy by the envoy of the Daxi Army, and they thought there was nothing to discuss. The conditions were already there, so they would send someone to surrender immediately, and if they didn't agree, they would start fighting. And now Sichuan is now
The news from there has been spread to Guizhou. The Nanjing government has rejected Wu Sangui's request for another surrender. Because Wu Sangui first rejected the request for peace, he could only surrender unconditionally. The same is true for the Daxi Army, so he advised Li Dingguo not to
Pu'anzhou, just in case of accidents.
But Li Dingguo immediately expressed that he believed that his former brothers would not harm him. He would go to meet with his elder brothers and have a face-to-face conversation. It would be better to be able to peacefully resolve the Yunnan issue and reduce some casualties of the Chinese army.
Li Dingguo and Luo Yuanbin are at the same level in their positions, both military commanders, and in terms of military rank, Li Dingguo is a general, while Luo Yuanbin is also a lieutenant general. Moreover, Li Dingguo came to Guizhou this time to be responsible for the peace talks with the Daxi Army. He insisted on
When he went to Pu'anzhou to interview Sun Kewang and others, Luo Yuanbin had no power to stop him, so he had to let Li Dingguo go.
So Li Dingguo only brought more than a dozen guards accompanying him to Pu'anzhou with Liu Wenxiu.
After meeting Sun Kewang and Ainengqi, the mood of several people was not calmed down. First, they hugged each other, and each of them burst into tears and did not separate for a long time. After all, this time, more than seven years later, the four brothers reunited.
We were together. Although Sun Kewang's selfishness has begun to expand over the past few years, he has been brotherly and brotherly with Li Dingguo for more than ten years. Therefore, this behavior is indeed a true love, not a deliberate act.
After the brothers laughed and cried for a while, they all returned to their seats. Because Liu Wenxiu had run back and forth twice in the middle, they were very familiar with their situation in recent years, so there was no need to tell the old story, and they just went to the main topic.
.
Sun Kewang first said: "Second, you have rushed from Nanyang to Guizhou for the sake of our affairs. We are also very grateful. The Yongli court is over now. Let us surrender to the King of Zhenbei, but you
The conditions proposed are a little too harsh. We now have the entire Yunnan territory, and the places are thousands of miles away, and the soldiers under our command are hundreds of thousands. We just handed over them all, but we only left three divisions for a total of
More than 30,000 people didn't even have a foothold. This is too much. When my adoptive father accepted the invitation from the Ming Dynasty, he was allowed to station troops in the valley. Therefore, we don't ask for anything else, there are only two points. One is
At least 50,000 troops must be retained. The second is to give us a garrison to a mansion. What do you think!”
Li Dingguo shook his head and said, "None of these points is possible. These conditions were approved by the King of Jingbei of Nanjing and the United Front Work Department. It has also been explained that these conditions can only be used and must not be increased. Therefore, please,
Third, fourth brother, forgive me!”
Sun Kewang was a little unhappy and said, "Second, although we are not brothers, we have been brothers for more than ten years. Brothers have not met for seven or eight years. Now you are awesome, but we three are
The miserable business has only had this little foundation in Yunnan, and it seems that it is almost too late. Can you refuse to say this little concession?"
Li Dingguo smiled and said, "Brother, as long as it is my thing, I will never regret it if my brothers want it, but now I am just on behalf of King Jingbei to discuss with you brothers. All the rules are formulated by King Jingbei.
To put it nicely, I am an envoy from Nanjing. To put it bluntly, I am just a person who passes the message. If you are qualified to agree to these conditions, it will be useless if you agree!"
Sun Kewang was a little displeased and said, "What else do you want to do? Shang Yi just sends someone to spread the word "Keep. If we agree, we surrender, and if we don't agree, we start fighting. Isn't that what it means!"
Seeing that Sun Kewang's words were a little rushing, Liu Wenxiu hurried to the circle and said, "Brother, isn't the second brother just for our brothers? Otherwise, why did he travel from Nanyang to Guizhou from thousands of miles away!"
Ainengqi said: "Yes, brother, what the second brother said just now is correct. He really can't make decisions about these things. If you force him to agree, isn't this a force to force him to do it!"
In fact, Sun Kewang just made a pretentious gesture just now, and he also knew that Liu Wenxiu and Ai Nengqi would come to smooth things out. Even if the two of them didn't come to smooth things out, he would have a way to pull things back. So he laughed dryly and said, "Second, just now."
It's a big brother who said it a little bit, don't take it to heart, but I'm just angry. For negotiations, you ask for a price all over the place, and I'll pay it back locally. If you do this like Shang Yi, you won't let me open a price code.
Let’s talk about it again, isn’t this bullying? Brother, I have been in the world for more than ten years, and I have visited almost all the seven, six, two, and ten, and three provinces in Beijing. Are you still afraid of Shang Yi? I admit that it is not as great as the Chinese army.
But at worst, just like the adoptive father back then, you will be a bandit again. When the Ming army could not catch the adoptive father, the Chinese army might not be able to catch us. My elder brother is still old-tempered and he is not listening to his words. Don’t mind!”
Li Dingguo smiled and said, "Brother, are we brothers still talking about these things? There is nothing we can't say, but you just said what you said in your heart, so I just said it straightforwardly. There is something wrong with it, brother
, Third and Fourth, don’t be surprised!”
Sun Kewang laughed and said, "I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything. You said it just now. Brothers, you can't say anything, just say it!"
Li Dingguodao: "Brother, third and fourth brother, you have fought with the Chinese army. What is the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army!"
Sun Kewang, Liu Wenxiu, and Ai Nengqi looked at each other, and Sun Kewang said, "I said just now that we are indeed no match for the Chinese Army!"
Li Dingguo nodded and asked again: "Then you have fought with the Qing army and the Ming army before, and the Daxi army will have a row of order!"
Sun Kewang thought about it and finally said, "The Qing army is stronger than our Daxi Army. The Ming army depends on what team it is. Some of them are vulnerable at all, but some are strong. The team led by Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, and Hong Chengchou.
It's very strong, maybe a little stronger than us!"
Li Dingguodao: "So what about the Qing army compared to the Ming army!"
Sun Kewang said: "The Qing army is stronger than the Ming army!"
Li Dingguo smiled and said, "Brother, third and fourth, you probably have heard that although the Qing army is strong, it has been defeated repeatedly by our Chinese army. Not to mention the distance, it is the Central Plains War last year, with 800,000 Qing army.
, almost wiped out by our Chinese army!"
Several people were silent for a moment, and then Sun Kewang said: "I've heard of it!"
Li Dingguo said again: "Our Chinese Army now has five military regions. I am actually responsible for the Huguang Military Region. The troops of the Jiangxi Military Region are fighting with you, but the Jiangxi Military Region is the weakest among these five military regions.
Like this attack on Sichuan, my Huguang Military Region and Nanjing Military Region jointly marched. "If you see the first release, please come--.
