Chapter 252: Brother and Sister
"This guy in Mang Yingli is really slow, Xin'er, I think you're afraid you're going to make a mistake." Liu Wei lazily leaned against a big tree, sitting on the ground without any image, and gnawed on a piece of sugar cane in his mouth.
This is the southwesternmost part of Yunnan, and the weather has already been hot, and the placket on Liu Ling's chest has been pulled apart a little, but because in front of his sister, he is still a little particular about it, but he is only slightly open for breath.
"It stands to reason that it shouldn't be so slow." Liu Xin frowned slightly: "After the loss of Bago, there was a great chaos in southern Myanmar, and it is said that the Meng people have played the banner of Bago restoration. In addition, there is a great tomorrow's inscription, and the Mon people in the old land of Bago have anyway, and there is a great tendency to spark the prairie fire. If Mang Yingli is delayed in southern Yunnan for one more day, Donghu City will be in danger of falling, and I can't figure out why he doesn't rush back desperately to pursue and suppress it...... Why do you go so slowly? ”
"I see, there are only two possibilities." Liu Wei continued to gnaw on the sugarcane, and said vaguely: "Either this guy is still lucky, thinking that there are only 20,000 people in Huangdutong, and the Meng people are not afraid, Donghu City can withstand it by himself, until he returns triumphantly; Either we really think too highly of the Burmese army and expect their marching speed to be too high. ”
Liu Xin still frowned, thought about it carefully, and asked: "Big brother, do you think it is possible that Mang Yingli was very cautious and expected that we would ambush here when he was in a hurry to return south, so it is better to be slow and walk cautiously until he confirms that he will not be ambushed?" ”
"This ......" Liu Ling's action of chewing sugarcane stopped, and he hesitated: "I can't say that it is completely impossible, but I still don't believe it, because when he rescued Yue Feng before, his reaction was not very fast." Hmph, or you asked me to deliberately let Yue Feng go, so that Yue Feng would spread the situation in southern Myanmar to the Burmese army in horror, and now this dog thief has been shackled into Beijing by me. ”
Liu Xin smiled and said, "Big brother is still entangled in Yue Feng's affairs? Don't worry, he can't run, as long as this plan can be successful, not to mention that Yue Feng can't run, it's hard to say whether he can run away in Mang Yingli. ”
It turned out that after the victory of Tiebi Pass, Liu Wei issued a letter of "suing all toasts", calling on all toasts to "share the same enmity with me" and "work hard to make meritorious contributions", "Muyi is loyal, and he goes to the enemy with all his might, or assists the soldiers to serve the soldiers; Wait for me to get his voice, for me to carry his party and his party, for me to stab me in the tent, for me to cover the outside of the interception, for me to attack its invasion, for me to set up a way to return."
And Deng Zilong's side also marched smoothly, defeating Han Qian, Han Qian's sons Zhao Han and Zhao Se fled to Sanjian Mountain, and together with their uncle, more than 500 medicine crossbowmen were arranged, and they resisted stubbornly by virtue of the dangerous mountain situation. Deng Zilong learned about the mountain trail from the local Pu people, and ordered the general Deng Yong and others to lead the army to smash the enemy's lair, and set up an ambush behind the mountain, flanking the front and back, capturing alive more than 30 leaders such as Zhaohan, Zhaose, and Hanlao, and killing more than 500 enemies. Then Deng Zilong's army regained Wandian and Gengma.
And Liu Wei led the army commander to drive straight in, and soon approached Longchuan, where Yue Feng was entrenched. Under the pressure of the army, Yue Feng knew that the general situation had gone, but he refused to sit idly by, so he ordered his wife and his subordinates to surrender first.
After Liu Xin and Liu Wei discussed, they judged that Yue Feng was not an honest person, and even if he offered his wife, he might not be sincere in asking for surrender. Liu Wei also felt that judging from Yue Feng's past deeds, this person had no conscience, and it was very likely that he would do such a thing, maybe he would still think about surrendering at that time, and then suddenly turn against him.
So in the name of sending Yue Feng's wife back to Longchuan, Liu Wei sent troops straight to Shamulong Mountain east of Longchuan, occupied the dangerous place first, and then personally led the army to attack Longchuan. Earlier, the Liu brothers and sisters learned the news that Huang Zhiting's troops in southern Myanmar had taken Bagu, so they used this news to intimidate Yue Feng, letting him know that there was no future with Mang Yingli, and the death of the reckless thief was not far away.
Yue Feng knew that he could not escape, so he had to surrender to Liu Ling's army, "offering all the Burmese books, Burmese silver and Burmese umbrellas, armor saddles, horse python clothes, and fake one for Guan Fang", but at this time, Yue Feng said that he had become ill in the past few days because of fear in his heart, and hoped to be held alone. Liu Wei felt that this condition could also be met, so he agreed.
Ben came here very smoothly, who knew that Liu Xin was more cautious than her eldest brother, she felt that Yue Feng's behavior was not normal, a little like she was avoiding meeting with her wife and subordinates. It's understandable to avoid his wife, after all, his previous actions were a bit of using his wife as bait to create a chance for himself to escape, but it doesn't make sense to avoid his subordinates.
So Liu Xin immediately found someone to verify her identity, and Yue Feng's wife and concubine, family members, and cronies were escorted over to "visit", and sure enough, a problem was discovered: this "Yue Feng" was a fake, and the real Yue Feng had quietly run away.
It turned out that a few days earlier, the Burmese generals sent by Mang Yingli to help Yue Feng had fled on elephants, leaving only dozens of Burmese people to stay in Longchuan, and Yue Feng's deity also quietly followed the team of scattered and ran to find the Burmese king Mang Yingli.
Liu Xin asked Liu Xin to calculate, to see if she could catch up if she could catch up with her now, Liu Xin just calculated a little and told him that she could catch up, but she suggested that she didn't have to chase, so let Yue Feng go to Mang Yingli.
Before Liu Xin could explain this truth, Liu Ling suddenly understood, she wanted Yue Feng to bring the news of the loss of Bagu to Mang Yingli, because in doing so, maybe Mang Yingli would be out of proportion because he was eager to return to the division to rescue the capital, and create a fighter for himself.
Liu Wei then successfully occupied Longchuan, "seized Burmese books, Burmese bowls, Burmese silver, Burmese umbrellas, Burmese clothes, python teeth, armor, knives and guns, saddle horses and other clothing." However, he still felt in his heart that Yue Feng was able to run away from under his hands, which made him lose face, and he always thought in his heart that he would have to humiliate this guy when the time came.
But that was later, after Liu Wei's army occupied Longchuan, he began to advance by victory, dividing his troops into three ways to attack Manmo, and Manmo Tusi was defeated and surrendered.
Liu Wei put forward five conditions and asked him to reply within five days: first, capture the courtiers; the second is to hand over the Han and Ganya seals; the third is to offer the seal issued by the king of Burma; fourth, the return of captured residents; The fifth is to recruit Meng Yang.
There was no way to escape, and he couldn't fight and fight, so he had to accept the conditions of surrender, so he "captured and sacrificed 18 Burmese people, one elephant, five horses, and the Burmese chieftain gave one to the puppet customs defense, and surrendered before the army." Then, Liu Wei recovered Meng Yang and Meng Lian.
Liu Wei made such a smooth progress, naturally "Yi Burma is afraid of the wind, and those who are attached to the wind are coming", Mu Bang Hanfeng, Meng Yang Siyi, etc., all killed the Burmese envoy and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. And Meng Mi's Si Ban also sent his younger brother to surrender, offering the elephant and the seal issued by the king of Burma.
But Liu Wei didn't have time to go south to Mubang, and Mubang, who had already surrendered, was beaten down by Mang Yingli, who had retreated from the front line after hearing the news, Hanfeng didn't dare to rebel again, and he couldn't beat Mang Yingli, so he decisively took his cronies to run to Liu Ling.
Liu Wei and his sister Liu Xin discussed, thinking that it was pointless to go directly to Mubang, because Mang Yingli could not still have the heart to continue to delay time in northern Myanmar, and he only took Mubang because of the need to retreat - Mubang was his way from and also the way back, if Mubang was not passable, he would be trapped in northern Myanmar.
So as soon as the brother and sister combined, they immediately sent troops overnight, first took down the Mengmao Pacification Division, killed the Hanlong Pass, and made the appearance of going straight to Mubang, and then the army turned to the southwest, almost rushing all the way to ambush here.
This is the only way to retreat from Mubang to Sibo City in Myanmar, and behind Sibo City is the fulcrum of this great battle in Mangyingli - Ava City, an important town in northern Myanmar.
According to Liu Xin's calculations, two hours earlier, Mang Yingli's army should have arrived here, but now it is almost evening, and Mang Yingli has not yet appeared, Liu Ying inevitably has some doubts about whether something is wrong.
If there is only Mang Yingli, Liu Ling does not doubt that he will definitely be tricked, but there is still a Yue Feng by Mang Yingli's side, and Yue Feng slipped out under his nose once before, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not give advice to Mang Yingli this time, and he avoided today's catastrophe, then he Liu Someone's face is very bad.
Seeing that his sister was still in the mood to laugh, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Xin'er, your eldest brother's reputation that has been saved for more than ten years is here in one fell swoop, so you don't worry about us miscalculating at all?" ”
Liu Xin was surprised: "How do you say this?" Even if the reckless thief is lucky and lets him get away this time, let's just give up this opportunity, and then it is not a big deal to attack Ava directly, after all, the reckless thief's backyard is on fire, how many soldiers and horses can he leave in Ava? ”
Liu Wei shook his head and said, "It's not this that I'm worried about, but ...... Southern Myanmar is playing too well. We are chasing behind the reckless thief, although he is eager to go back to rescue Donghu, but it is impossible to really give us northern Myanmar directly, so we still have to take measures. Having a plan means that he can't go fast, so that the results on the southern side of Myanmar may be even more brilliant...... When the time comes, if my results here are not as good as a female toast, there is really no place for me to put this face. ”
Liu Xinmei's eyes turned, but her face remained unchanged, and she asked, "If this is the case, the eldest brother has two paths now." ”
"Huh?" Liu Wei was slightly stunned.
Liu Xin said: "First, defeat Mangying in northern Myanmar; Second, directly let go of the reckless should go south. ”
Liu Wei was slightly surprised, and asked: "It is understandable to defeat Mangying Yingli, but why is it also an option to let Mangying Yingli go south?" ”
"The reckless thief goes south, and there will be more soldiers and horses left, and the pressure on Huang Deputy Dutong's side will be great at that time, and it will be difficult to hold the results at that time, so naturally he can't win any decent victory, and he can only withdraw in the end. In such a comparison, the eldest brother's face was saved. ”
Liu Wei frowned: "You want me to do this?" ”
"I don't want to." Liu Xin spread his hands: "I'm just out of the duty of a staff member to tell you that you have such a choice." If the eldest brother asks me, of course I hope to defeat Mang Yingli openly, otherwise I persuade you to intercept him for something? ”
Liu Ling's face was relieved at this time, and he nodded: "Well, big brother understands." After a pause, he said: "Although that Huang Deputy Dutong is a woman, judging from her battle in Langshan and this expedition to Bagu, it is indeed not simple. If the battle between Pyong-Burma goes well, maybe I will have a chance to meet her and see what kind of heroine she is. ”
Liu Xin rolled her eyes and said angrily: "Big brother, you don't have to say anything about fighting, you are really dull in some aspects...... Don't say that being a sister didn't remind you, you'd better not have any curiosity about her. ”
Liu Wei was stunned: "Why?" ”
"Hmm...... If you're not afraid of high school guilt, you might as well be curious. Liu Xin snorted lightly: "Our heroine, I'm afraid that it will be a dish on the plate of high school for a long time." ”
"You mean......" Liu Ling looked surprised, and her eyes rolled a few times: "She is from high school...... That one...... Outer Chambers? ”
"I don't know, maybe it's not the outer room, maybe it's the main room." Liu Xin turned her face away, as if she was looking at the direction where Mang Yingli's army should come, and said in a salty and indifferent manner: "First of all, she did her best to help the high school Cheng pacify Annan, and less than two years after the high school Cheng returned to Beijing, she couldn't help but go north in person, but unfortunately the high school Cheng was transferred to Liaodong at that time. So, in addition to the title of tributary envoy, she had an additional task to negotiate trade, and followed her to Liaodong...... Big brother, don't you think that's weird? ”
"This ......" Liu Wei said, "The outer room can also be like this, right?" ”
Liu Xin sneered and said: "Then Gao Gaocheng's courage is really bigger than I imagined - he handed over a situation as big as Annan to an outer room?" Do you know how much money Gao Cheng invested in Annan, and how much capital he has now? ”
Liu Wei shook his head decisively: "I don't know much about these things. ”
Liu Xin said: "Annan's government affairs are all in charge of themselves, but in fact, they are all managed by Jinghua. Jinghua has Thang Long Castle and Hai Duong Province in the north of Annam, and three towns such as Nghe An in the south, which is the 'Four Prefectures and One Beijing'. In addition, Jinghua also has a total of 80,000 troops of the Thang Long Garrison and the Jingang Garrison, which are nominally the headquarters of the Annam Metropolitan Commandery, but in fact Mo Maoqia can't even move a single person.
There is also that Golden Port, it is said that its port is no worse than Guangzhou Port, and the whole city is newly built, and the high school Cheng invested to build it, big brother, how much money did you say it spent? And now, he has put Huang Zhiting as the deputy capital commander, in the case that Mo Maoqia is just a radish seal, what does this deputy capital mean, the eldest brother won't not understand, right? ”
Liu Wei was stunned for a long time, and only after a long time did he say: "Do you want Ming Media to marry?" This...... It's a bit hard, right? ”
"Then I don't know." Liu Xin shook her head: "Our high school man is not an ordinary person, maybe he has some special method." ”
Liu Wei was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "Xin'er, you have known Gao Gao Cheng for more than ten years, don't you think he is the most suitable ......?"
"Stop." Liu Xin stretched out a finger: "I don't want to talk about this." ”
Liu Wei sighed: "But you are not young anymore, this daughter's family always has to get married, if you can't get into your eyes in high school, I ......"
"I said stop." Liu Xin's face tightened, and suddenly said, "Big brother, look ahead, the reckless thief is coming." ”
