"General Ma Bao and Liu Xuanchu are here!" Someone had already reported the matter to Li Dingguo, the king of Jin.

In the past few years, Li Dingguo's physical condition has been poor, and he has not been able to lead the troops to the Northern Expedition, so he can only accompany and protect Yongli in Xingdu, and he can't go anywhere. He is almost fifty years old, and in this era when the average life expectancy is only more than 30 and less than 40 years old, Li Dingguo thinks that he is also an old man.

"Ma Bao and Liu Xuanchu? How did they get over? Li Dingguo sat up.

"It seems that I came to welcome the Holy Driver." Pro-soldier report.

"Let's go, help the clan up, go and see them!" Li Ding National Road.

Li Dingguo came to the pavilion in the city for foreign envoys and envoys of various vassal kings, because after all, the city of Hindu was a temporary capital, and there were often envoys from the West, Turkey and other places, and the pavilion here was quite luxuriously built, and the foreign envoys lived in three-story buildings.

At the door of the building where Liu Xuanchu and Ma Bao lived, there were several Wu soldiers, and now the Wu soldiers and soldiers have also changed into red military uniforms, wearing white soft hats on their heads, and the elite soldiers are wearing six-petal bright light helmets, and the red battle jackets are covered with armor. These Wu soldiers looked very energetic.

A pro-soldier had already reported the matter to Liu Xuanchu and Ma Baoyu, and the two greeted them.

Li Dingguo took a closer look, and saw that the two people had also changed into Daming's red official uniforms and wore black gauze hats. After all, now Wu Sangui has returned to Daming anyway, has begun to grow hair, and has returned to his clothes.

"Xiaguan see King Jin!" Liu Xuanchu and Ma Bao saluted.

"The two of them are old friends! They were all civil and military generals under the command of the King of Shu, don't come unharmed! Li Dingguo returned the salute.

The three of them walked into the hall, and Li Dingguo asked, "Are the two of you here to welcome back the holy car?" ”

Liu Xuanchu said: "That's exactly for this!" Now that Wu Dashuai is about to make a northern expedition to the Central Plains and recover the capital, I hope that the Son of Heaven can follow the army to inspire the morale of our army! Let my Ming King Division pacify the Central Plains in one fell swoop and recover the capital! ”

Li Dingguo secretly said in his heart: This Wu Sangui must be to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the world! So he replied: "Now that Nanjing has been recovered, the Son of Heaven will be able to return to Nanjing in a few days, so why bother to go to the north?" It's better to go to Nanjing first, wait until my Ming Dynasty recovers Beijing, and then return to Beijing. ”

Liu Xuanchu sighed deeply: "Lord Wang! If the Son of Heaven drove to Nanjing, do you think there is still a chance to go to Beijing? If the situation is chaotic today, the strong and strong, among them, the Qiongzhou army of the king of Nanhai County is the most powerful, followed by Wu Dashuai, Geng Jingzhong again, and the prince, and the camp, plus Shang Zhixin, the world is divided. But this world, after all, must be unified, Lord Wang, who do you think can unify the world? ”

Li Dingguo's face was solemn, he lowered his head and pondered for a moment before he nodded: "This clan also knows that the king of Nanhai County will rule the world after all!" But he is also my courtier, so this world is still my tomorrow's son! ”

"Tomorrow?" Liu Xuanchu said in a deep tone, "If the king of Nanhai defeats all the vassal kings and dominates the world, how will he face the Son of Heaven?" If you are only a meritorious hero, but the merit of this meritorious hero is too great, and the merit is high, can the Son of Heaven tolerate him? If he wants to protect himself, he can only replace him! ”

Li Dingguo nodded slightly in agreement, after all, he is not the kind of foolish and loyal person who has to die if the monarch wants his ministers to die, he was raised by Zhang Xianzhong since he was a child, and he has followed the Daxi Army for most of his life, knowing that in this era, the key is to see whose fists are hard and who speaks counts. In real history, Li Dingguo served Yongli until Wu Sangui killed Yongli, this is not that he is really loyal to the Ming Dynasty, the key is that the Qing court's shaving is unpopular, and shaving is easy to obey to turn Huaxia into a barbarian, which makes many people with lofty ideals unyielding and resisting to the end.

Today's Qing court is already sunset, and the Qing army has been defeated in a hundred battles, and it is not a climate at all. There is no need for Wang Yu to come forward, as long as Wu Sangui sends troops to the Northern Expedition, he can pinch the Manchu court to death.

In this case, every warlord naturally has to consider self-preservation, although Li Dingguo is a national hero, but at this time, he can't help but think about this matter, after all, he wants to keep his children and grandchildren.

In real history, the reason why Li Dingguo asked his son to starve to death in the wilderness rather than surrender was because he considered that he would not be able to enter the ancestral tomb and face his ancestors after death in the future. In the matter of shaving their hair and making it easy to wear, many people who originally felt desperate and wanted to surrender continued to resist to the end. In fact, Zheng Chenggong also wanted to negotiate peace with the Qing court, and the condition he put forward was not to shave his hair, but the Qing court refused, so he resisted to the end.

Now Li Dingguo's descendants don't need to shave their hair and change clothes, of course, they want their children and grandchildren to live, not to be wiped out.

Liu Xuanchu saw that Li Dingguo's face was uncertain, and he seemed to be very hesitant, so he hit the railway while it was hot: "King Jin, now the king of Nanhai County is the most powerful, only you and I join forces, plus Geng Jingzhong, Shang Zhixiao can compete!" Let the Son of Heaven follow Wu Dashuai through the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, break through the capital at that time, and the Son of Heaven will return to the capital, then Wang Yu, no matter how bold he is, will not dare to attack the capital, right? Unless he openly pulls the flag and rebels! If he rebelled, it would be morally untenable! If the Son of Heaven is allowed to go to Nanjing, then Wang Yu will really become Cao Cao, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the world! When the world is unified, you and I will die without a place to be buried! And this world will eventually become his world. ”

Li Dingguo asked: "Sichuan is also in the hands of Wang Yu, if you welcome the holy car, how can you go to Hanzhong?" ”

"Raise the banner of the Son of Heaven and go straight over!" Liu Xuanchu said, "The lower officials don't believe it, they dare to stop the Son of Heaven!" As long as the banner of the Son of Heaven is displayed, they will not dare to stop it. If they want to report to Wuchang, it will take a month to go back and forth, and when their messenger returns, the holy car will have arrived in Hanzhong! ”

Li Dingguo didn't say a word, and in the hall, the air slowly tightened.

"Lord Wang, I really can't hesitate any longer! After the Tartar is destroyed, you and I have to think about our lives! Liu Xuanchu said.

Li Dingguo thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded and agreed: "Okay, this clan will personally escort the holy car north!" You and I will unite our two armies and jointly expedition the Central Plains to attack the capital! But there is one point, you and I have been fighting for many years, and I am afraid that the brothers will be a little unhappy when they meet. ”

Liu Xuanchu said: "Now only you and I can get rid of our previous suspicions, abandon our prejudices, resolve hatred, and work together to compete with the king of Nanhai County!" Having the Son of Heaven in the hands of our two families can make Wang Yu have some scruples. ”
