It was Wang Xinyu's idea for Zhang Huangyan to come forward and gather the Southern Ming Army that had entered Burma and the Kuidong Righteous Army in Sichuan to convene a unified meeting of military divisions. At that time, the reason why the Southern Ming Dynasty could not rule with the Qing Dynasty was because there were many factions in the Southern Ming Dynasty, and no one was subordinate to each other.

If other people don't say it, they just say that Hao Shaoqi has also done this kind of thing.

For his own personal vendetta, He Tengjiao used Hao Yongzhong to attack Chen Youlong, who was anyway.

After Chen Youlong was anyway, he successively occupied Jingzhou, Liping, Wugang, Xinhua, and Baoqing, and echoed with the troops of Guyinxi and Ma Jinzhong in the Changde area, and had the potential to take Changsha in one fell swoop.

Who knew that Hao Yongzhong suddenly attacked from behind Chen Youlong.

Chen Youlong was defenseless, the whole army was defeated, and fled into Guangxi with the remnants of the defeated soldiers to complain to the Yongli court. Chen Youlong's army was defeated in the civil war provoked by He Tengjiao, and not only was the plan to attack Changsha shattered, but Baoqing Mansion was also reoccupied by the Qing general Zhang Guozhu and the general Wei Shouyi. The Southern Ming army directed by He Tengjiao was on fire with each other, so that the Qing army in Hunan could breathe. After a long battle, the army commanded by He Tengjiao captured Yongzhou, and then occupied Baoqing again, delaying the time to recover Quanxiang and save Jiangxi Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren in the east, and the consequences were very serious.

Let's talk about it here, although He Tengjiao is a loyal minister like Shi Kefa, they misled the country and caused great harm, making Nanming defeated in their hands.

There are also various factional disputes, that is, because of factional disputes, Li Dingguo sent troops to Guangdong to attack Xinhui, Zhu Chenggong didn't pay attention to it at all, procrastinating, and finally led to Li Dingguo's defeat of Xinhui. Even Zhang Huangyan couldn't avoid getting involved in factional disputes, and he always wanted King Yanping to hand over the position of prisoner. Restore the state of King Lu. On the issue of King Lu, Zhang Huangyan and Zhu Chenggong both have contradictions.

When Sun Kewang and Li Ding's domestic strife broke out, Sun Kewang surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and completely cut off Nanming's last hope.

Recalling the previous incident, Hao Shaoqi regretted it very much. He often sighed that if he hadn't listened to He Tengjiao's words and attacked Chen Youlong, the situation would not have deteriorated to the point it is today.

Originally, because of Jiang Pin's case, tens of thousands of elites of the Qing army were dragged in Shanxi, and the situation in Jiangnan was very good. However, because of the continuous infighting of the Ming army, the order was changed overnight, and nearly a year was wasted. He Tengjiao's personal vendetta and delay in state affairs were naturally the culprits, but he was later killed by the Qing army, and Wang Fuzhi and others accused the camp of breaking into the camp as a scourge, especially Hao Shaoqi, who believed that Hao Shaoqi's fire and Chen Youlong were the cause of the overall situation in the southeast.

Accused by the literati, Hao Shaoqi was disheartened and desperate. He decided that he would rather die in battle than surrender: You literati scolded me as the culprit. But you all surrendered, and I ended up dead! At this time, he just wanted to prove his patriotism with his life.

Zheng Chenggong's fiasco in the Battle of Nanjing made Hao Shaoqi think that his life was about to come to an end. What happened next was even more worrying: the difficulty of cursing the water. Myanmar seized Yongli.

Who knew that at this critical juncture, the Qiongzhou army, which came to Burma thousands of miles away, beat the Burmese army to the ground, and cooperated with Li Dingguo to defeat Wu Sangui's army in Burma, and Li Dingguo beheaded Mu Zhan, the general of the Qing army. The Qiongzhou army killed the Qing generals Ai Xing A and Zhuo Luo Beizi. After defeating Wu Sangui, the Ming army surrounded the city of Ava without worries and finally rescued Yongli. During this period. swept through Annan and rescued the first assistant Guo Zhiqi.

After that, Zhu Chenggong and the Zhejiang army entered the river again, and the Qiongzhou army then came, first seized Hangzhou and defeated the Qing army in the south of the Yangtze River, and then successively captured many cities in the south of the Yangtze River, and finally the three-way coalition army of Fujian, Zhejiang and Qiongzhou defeated the Aobai Qing army that reinforced the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, and achieved an unprecedented victory.

This series of victories did not make Hao Shaoqi feel gratified, because the situation in Badong was precarious, and Li Guoying took Yucheng as the center, constantly transferred troops and sent generals, took defense as an attack, and took every step as a battalion, compressing the living space of the Kuidong Righteous Army.

But at this time, Zhu Chenggong died of illness, and the Fujian army once again had large-scale infighting.

The Qiongzhou army had to go to quell the infighting, and the Qing army took the opportunity to attack Qiongzhou Island, the base camp of the Qiongzhou army.

This series of changes made Hao Shaoqi completely desperate: why did Daming have infighting every time he was in a good situation? Can't you escape such a cycle this time? However, at this time, the Western Expeditionary Army from afar gave the Kuidong Righteous Army a little hope.

It's just that Hao Shaoqi didn't have much hope for the Western Expeditionary Army, after all, the number of the Western Expeditionary Army was too small, and it was a lone army with no food, grass and no supplies.

Who knew that a lone Western Expeditionary Army actually grew rapidly, continuously expanded its territory without food, grass and supplies, defeated the Tusi of Western Sichuan, incorporated a large number of Tubo soldiers, and obtained its own supply land. After that, the Western Expeditionary Army attacked Chengdu again, outwitted the Sword Pavilion, and attacked Guangyuan, completely reversing the situation!

The sneak attack on Guangyuan was the biggest blow to Li Guoying, more than 100,000 Qing army grain and grass were destroyed, Li Guoying's plan to defend as an offensive step by step, and gradually encircle the Kuidong Righteous Army, all of which were shattered, and the Qing army, which was cut off from food, had to give up the defense they were good at and forcibly break through and escape.

As a result, Li Guoying fell into the ambush circle of the Kuidong Righteous Army, the Qing army suffered heavy losses, and the Qing army in Sichuan was almost completely annihilated.

The victory in Badong not only annihilated a large number of Qing troops, but also gave the Kuidong Righteous Army a chance to breathe, which made the morale of the Ming army unprecedentedly high, and Sichuan returned to the hands of the Ming army again.

If the Qing army wants to re-enter Sichuan, it will be in a dilemma: if the Qing court wants to send Wu Sangui into Sichuan, Wu Sangui will definitely refuse, his fief is Yunnan, and the imperial court has already cut Wu Sangui's army twice, and still wants Wu Sangui to work for the imperial court again? Don't even think about it! Wu Sangui, who has arrived in Yunnan, just wants to be a king of Yunnan in peace.

Qiongzhou Jun and Wu Sangui did business, which not only made Wu Sangui make a lot of money, but also made Wu Sangui more at both ends, anyway, both sides can take refuge, and see who can give themselves more benefits.

Then, Hao Shaoqi got good news: the Qiongzhou army actually quelled the internal strife of the Fujian army in just two months, defeated the Qing army that invaded Qiongzhou, and even killed Hong Chengchou!

This series of victories boosted the morale of the Ming army, and the Qing court lost its troops, and even Aobai lost the confidence to attack.

Sichuan was safe, and Hao Shaoqi, who was already preparing to die for his country, saw hope, and he knew that he could live well again. Among them, the great benefactor with the greatest credit is naturally Wang Yu of the Qiongzhou Army. If nothing else, just for the sake of Wang Yu's saving tens of thousands of people in the Kuidong Righteous Army, he Hao Shaoqi had to come in person.

In fact, Wang Xinyu convened a military meeting this time to decide that the next offensive plan was only secondary, which direction to attack, as long as his own Qiongzhou army and his most hardcore ally Zheng Cong joined forces, it was enough to launch an attack, and others would be the greatest help as long as they did not cause chaos for him. The most important point in convening the military conference this time is to resolve internal problems and form a unified and stable alliance.

In this era and later it was not the same, later the League. It is entirely for the purpose of dealing with the most powerful enemy, because there are lessons from the predecessors in later generations, and regardless of the level of political struggle and IQ, it is said that with a pure strategic vision, the later people are still more clever than the ancients. In terms of tactics, the tactics of later generations are naturally more powerful.

And in this era, alliances are formed only to equal strength among each other, and no one can annex the other, while everyone has a common enemy. Only under these conditions can an alliance be formed.

Once there was a change in the balance of power, for example, after He Tengjiao incorporated the camp, he once became the strongest force, and he didn't think about cooperating with his allies. It's a stab in the back. For example, Sun Kewang's power is expanding day by day, and at this time he has the idea of wanting to eat others, which leads to infighting among the three kings.

The current Qiongzhou Army, plus the Zheng Congmin Army that he raised. Wang Xinyu, who has the strength of two kings, and has incorporated the forces of Zheng Xi and Zheng Jing, in fact, already has the strength of the four kings. Nature is the most powerful force, and this force is something that even Yongli will fear! Now that the balance of power between the allies is being broken, others will be afraid of the Qiongzhou army.

Zhang Huangyan said that although he is his most reliable ally, he is also afraid of being poached and is somewhat wary of himself. King Yanping did the thing of digging the foot of the wall, and dug Zhang Huangyan and many people left.

With such a lesson from the past, Zhang Huangyan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. At present, the strength of the Qiongzhou army is strong, and the weapons and ammunition of the Zhejiang army and the city fortifications are all dependent on the help of the Qiongzhou army.

Although Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan have been very close to Wang Xinyu, even Li Dingguo can get a lot of benefits from Wang Xinyu, and can also help Wang Xinyu send troops to Borneo to exterminate the local natives, and the two sides can be said to be a more reliable alliance. But Li Dingguo is also worried, where will he go in the future? Although he loyally supports Yongli, if the Qiongzhou Army really succeeds in the Northern Expedition, it is really hard to say what will happen in the future. Maybe one day, he will become a thief and be exterminated.

As for Li Laiheng, not to mention, although this time the Qiongzhou Army sent the Western Expeditionary Army to help Li Laiheng and them, but in Li Laiheng's heart, they thought that the Qiongzhou Army wanted to annex themselves.

The reason why the camp was able to be recruited by the Southern Ming Dynasty was not because of the soldiers at hand? If there are no soldiers, then Li Laiheng and they are just a group of rogues. Especially in the minds of those who read, the people who broke into the camp were originally a disaster to the country and the people, and it was they who rebelled, which led to the fall of the Ming Dynasty to the point where it is today.

As for Li Dingguo, Li Laiheng and others, we must first dispel their worries.

In order to persuade Zhang Huangyan to change his views on Li Dingguo, Li Laiheng, and others, Wang Xinyu had a long talk with Zhang Huangyan for several days. Fortunately, at this time, Zhang Huangyan had also changed his opinion, he knew that if everyone did not join forces, they would still be scattered, or even kill each other, then Daming would immediately fall into a state of no return.

After convincing Zhang Huangyan, the next step was to let Li Dingguo and Li Laiheng know that in the future, if the Northern Expedition was successful, they would definitely have their own fiefdoms, and the imperial court would not hide all their bows.

The military meeting was held on the West Lake in Hangzhou as scheduled, and the people chartered a painting boat, sat on the boat, and discussed the military meeting while drinking tea and enjoying the beautiful scenery of the West Lake.

Zhang Huangyan spoke first, but most of them were polite words. After he read a few lines of poetry, he asked Wang Xinyu to come up and speak.

"Guys, tell me, do our five fingers form a fist and hit it with great power, or do we spread out our five fingers and poke them out one by one?" Wang Xinyu spoke.

"Of course it's a fist with great power!" Li Dingguo and Hao Shaoqi said in unison. But Zhang Huangyan didn't speak, he has thought about this question many times, it must be a great force of unity, but how to unite everyone? That's the biggest headache.

"Yes!" Wang Xinyu nodded and said, "Our current Daming can't withstand another infighting!" Only when we are united can we defeat the Tartars who have stolen my great rivers and mountains! Think about it, we were all defeated in our own hands! Because everyone is suspicious of each other, no one is willing to obey anyone, and they have to use force to solve the problem, and as a result, there is infighting, which gives the Tartars an opportunity to take advantage of! There is a saying that if you are not unified internally, how to deal with external enemies? Therefore, the way of thinking of our people is to solve internal problems first, and then deal with external enemies. ”

Li Dingguo nodded and said: "Yes, when Emperor Taizu (Zhu Yuanzhang) went on a northern expedition to the Central Plains and expelled the Tartars, it was also the internal problem of the Xianping Definition Army, which solved Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng and others, and then went on the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains." ”

"At that time, it was the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and the Tartar was already dying. But now is the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, and the Tartars are in full swing! If we had another civil strife, would we be able to afford it? In order to reach an internal agreement, is it necessary to solve this problem by force? Wang Xinyu tapped lightly on the map.

Li Dingguo said with a smile: "I know your method, you used the method of cooperation between silver and money to pull us together." You let Benwang take a stake in your company, and the money you earn will be both yours and mine. Now that our old Xiying has made a fortune, isn't it because Wang Gongzi has helped us a lot? We can work together on common prosperity. But in the military, it is inevitable that there will be different opinions, so you say, who will listen to whom when the time comes? ”

Before Wang Xinyu could answer, Hao Shaoqi interjected: "Can we also invest in your Nanyang Company?" ”

"That's totally fine! Everyone is a brother, and everyone will make it together if they have money! Only by making money will we be able to buy more weapons and food to deal with the Tartars! Wang Xinyu replied with a smile.

"Now let's talk about what we should do if there is a disagreement in military action?" Li Ding National Road. (To be continued.) )
