Chapter 46: The Aftermath

Li Dingguo was almost overjoyed when he saw Sun Kewang, and said, "Big brother, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”

Of course, Li Dingguo's happiness was not to see Sun Kewang, his love with Sun Kewang had been exhausted.

But capturing Sun Kewang means that even if Yunnan is not resisted, there is no threat.

Li Dingguo's promise to Zhang Xuan has been fulfilled. Li Dingguo only felt relieved, how could he be unhappy.

But Sun Kewang was different, he sneered and said, "What? I got what I wanted. If it falls into your hands today, you will be killed or scraped, and you will be respected. ”

Li Dingguo said: "Big brother, do you think I will kill you? ”

Sun Kewang said: "What don't you dare, you follow Cao Ying Zhang Xuan, ruined your father's foundation, what else don't you dare to do." ”

When Li Dingguo heard this, he didn't laugh angrily, and said: "The foundation of the father-in-law, when did the father-in-law become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty?" ”

It's a little funny to say, on top of the original history, Li Dingguo was a staunch Fengming faction. And now, it is a staunch anti-Ming faction.

Sun Kewang said: "It's just an expedient measure. ”

Li Dingguo recognized Sun Kewang clearly, and he had nothing to say to Sun Kewang. He said, "Big brother, you have a good rest." Rest assured, I have saved your life. ”

Li Dingguo then left.

Sun Kewang looked at the back of Li Dingguo leaving, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Sun Kewang is not a martyr.

"My life was saved." Sun Kewang secretly said in his heart, although he was not a chaste person, he did not want to die.

However, remembering that the big thing was ruined. When Sun Kewang thought about it, there was a sour feeling in his heart.

After Li Dingguo seized Sun Kewang, he naturally wanted to give full play to Sun Kewang's role, and he wrote a lot of private letters in the name of Sun Kewang and sent them to Liu Wenxiu, Feng Shuangli, and Ai Nengqi and other high-level generals of the Great Western Army.

In the next war, if you can not use troops, you will not use troops.

At the same time, Li Dingguo was not remarkable, and ordered the Long clan to garrison Pu'an, and the Tusi of the various departments guaranteed him a way back, while his troops pointed directly at Qujing.

Qu Jing was caught off guard, but in one day, he was captured by Li Dingguo. For a time, Yunnan shook.

At this time, Feng Shuangli, Liu Wenxiu and others all kept the letter.

The others didn't feel much yet, but Feng Shuangli was the most embarrassed, and he took people around hundreds of miles. When he arrived at the Huangcaoba camp, when he was about to attack behind the enemy, he found that Sun Kewang's army was gone.

Feng Shuangli didn't know what to do for a while?

He thought about it and said secretly: "Anyway, it's a matter between their brothers, I just need to wait for the final result." ”

Feng Shuangli finally decided to return the same way and arrived at the foot of Qujing City.

And Liu Wenxiu was also surprised.

When Liu Wenxiu got Li Dingguo's letter

I almost couldn't believe that what was in front of me was real.

Counting carefully, Sun Kewang is expected to engage Li Dingguo in battle, and so far, it has not been more than a month.

Now it seems that Li Dingguo was already confident before the war.

Liu Wenxiu reviewed it carefully, and still decided that things were incredible. I have a little more admiration for Li Dingguo.

There was already a bit of inclination in his mind.

However, he will not make a decision lightly. The road around the Seven Star Pass at this moment. There are already some eyebrows. But now it's no longer needed.

He thought with his toes, knowing that after An Shi got the news at this time, his decision was like being beaten with chicken blood, and he would not flinch a little.

And Qujing is where his back road is.

Qujing fell, the back road was cut off, and although he brought some baggage, it was not enough to support it for a long time.

Therefore, his choice is the same, to retire from the Seven Star Pass.

In this way, the situation in Yunnan and Guizhou, on the contrary, Li Dingguo pushed the front to Yunnan. The situation of the Xia Dynasty being attacked by the enemy on its back suddenly dissipated.

However, Li Dingguo's situation is still not very good.

In Qujing City, Li Dingguo only had about 50,000 troops under his command, and many of them were previously surrendered, although Sun Kewang had already sent them to Wuchang. But Liu Wenxiu, Ai Nengqi and other departments combined, there are still more than 100,000 horses.

The strength and weakness of the enemy are still obvious.

Feng Shuangli came from the south, Liu Wenxiu from the north, and Ai Nengqi from the west, mobilizing the remaining men and horses in Yunnan.

It's just that the atmosphere on both sides is not too bad.

As soon as Li Dingguo waited for them to come, he agreed with them that they would meet outside the city three days later.

Just when Li Dingguo wanted to use words to resolve the contradictions within the Great Western Army. In the city of Kunming, something else happened.

Just when the news of Sun Kewang's defeat came, Ai Nengqi, who was stationed in Kunming, immediately gathered the Kunming defenders and marched east to Qujing.

Qujing is already very close to Kunming.

As soon as Qujing fell, Kunming was in danger, and he couldn't help but be nervous.

However, when Ainengqi left, he forgot about the dark tide in Kunming City, after losing the pressure of Ainengqi. Immediately started to get things done.

Yongli is a tablet in Kunming.

But the old ministers of the Ming Dynasty are not without any power, at least in the civil system, there are many former Ming civil officials. After all, Sun Kewang is in the army, and he may have enough talent reserves.

But on the civilian side, not so much.

When Cao Ying first entered Jiangnan, he faced a situation, and the situation was the same as that of Sun Kewang.

Sun Kewang sorted out Yunnan's internal affairs and strengthened its national strength. They all need the support of the civilian authorities, even if they know that they have some other ideas, they must use it.

However, Sun Kewang had the confidence to suppress them.

They are also a little afraid of Sun Kewang. And at this moment Sun

It is hoped that the army will be defeated and captured, and their minds will naturally come alive.

Among the civil officials in Kunming, the most powerful is Yang Weizhi.

Yang Weizhi is not a person who does not know soldiers, and he also fought some battles in the Shadingzhou Rebellion. It can be said that it is both civil and military, and has outstanding ability.

It is very trusted by Sun Kewang.

And at this moment, Yang Weizhi was in King Mu's mansion.

After Sun Kewang entered Yunnan, the power of Mu Wangfu was suppressed, but Mu Tianbo's own power could be suppressed, but the prestige of the Yunnan Mu family in Yunnan for more than two hundred years could not be suppressed.

Yang Weizhi said with a firm meaning in his tone: "Qianguo Gong, you should not be chaotic, but suffer from it." Now is a godsend. It's also the last chance. ”

Mu Tianbo's face turned blue and white for a while, and his eyes couldn't stop rolling. His mind was rolling.

The situation in the Ming Dynasty was very bad, and before Sun Kewang and Xia Jun turned their faces, the existence of Yongli was a secret that everyone knew.

Even if everyone knows about it, Yongli can't make a public appearance yet.

After Sun Kewang turned his face, although Yongli officially appeared, he had no power, it was just a tablet.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Sun Kewang is inferior to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao is still loyal to the Han family. But Sun Kewang is not loyal to Yongli at all, and keeping Yongli is just useful.

When the eternal calendar is useless, they all know what will happen.

As loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty, they have always been worried about this.

Sun Kewang was defeated and captured. For them, it's a crisis and an opportunity.

said that it was a crisis because without Sun Kewang's protection, the Yongli regime was also in danger. Speaking of chance, although Sun Kewang was captured, the strength of the Ming army did not have to be inferior to the strength of the Xia army.

Therefore, Yang Weizhi let Yongli return to power and unite all departments of the Ming army, in Yang Weizhi's view, this is to set things right.

If Yongli can control a province in Yunnan, it may not be able to compete for the Central Plains, but when the Central Plains is undecided, it is possible to be in one place.

"Lord Yang, will you report this to Your Majesty in advance?" Mu Tianbo said.

Yang Weizhi said: "Not to mention, Pang Tianshou has taken refuge in the Western Thief, whether we can see Your Majesty is not known yet, but Your Majesty's temperament, don't you and I know?" ”

"You and I can decide on this matter."

Yang Weizhi's words were categorical, and he also carried disappointment in Yongli.

After such a long time of understanding, Yang Weizhi also knew what kind of person Yongli was, and he was expected to make a decision immediately. It's simply impossible.

Yang Weizhi estimated that even if he reported Yongli, Yongli had a high probability of hesitation. And timing is precious.

Once you miss it, you don't come back.

Yang Weizhi would rather them push Yongli to decide.

Mu Tianbo hesitated for a while and said, "Lord Yang, where do you think you should start?" ”
