Pingxiwei, which was in a dangerous position, was attacked by Ma Liuliang in one day, which was something that everyone never expected.

Ma Liuliang captured more than 1,200 people, including Chen Guimin, the deputy commander of Guizhou, Tang Yue stayed up for most of the night like a boiling eagle, and finally persuaded Chen Guimin to join him with the post of commander of the capital.

Early the next morning, Chen Guimin and more than 1,200 captives were transformed into the vanguard of the Qin army, and more than 4,000 horses and horses advanced rapidly to the west;

Sizhou Mansion, Zhenyuan Mansion, Biqiaowei, Xinglongwei, Chong'an Division, Pingyue Wei and other state guards along the way had very few troops, and they were taken down one after another when they were caught off guard.

Some state capitals didn't even know that the Pingxi Guard had been broken, and when they saw that Chen Guimin, the deputy envoy of the command, came with troops, although it was strange, they also said that it was their own army, and they were defenseless, and it was not until the subsequent appearance of the Qin army that they woke up like a dream.

The army advanced so smoothly and quickly, and Chen Guimin played a key role in it.

Ma Liuliang left only 200 men in each state capital to garrison, waiting for Cui Feng's follow-up army. His main force did not stop for a moment, advancing rapidly, and asked Chen Guimin to incorporate the local garrison along the way.

Therefore, the number of people who advanced Ma Liuliang along the way not only did not decrease, but when they reached Pingyuewei, they increased to 5,000 people, and the momentum became stronger and stronger.

He Tengjiao, who was sent to surrender, almost ran to death, and finally caught up with Ma Liuliang's army in Pingyuewei.

Ma Liuliang was quite disdainful when he saw his embarrassed appearance, Tang Yue was afraid that he would speak ill of him, so he hurriedly pulled him aside and persuaded: "General Ma, don't underestimate He Tengjiao's role. We caught the Guizhou garrison by surprise this time, so we were able to advance quickly;

But it is precisely because of the rapid advancement that the state capitals behind have not yet had time to be sorted out, and once our army passes, it is likely that there will be a recurrence, and now is the time when Lord He urgently needs to come forward to appease;

General Ma, it is easy to take down a state and a government by force, but it is not easy to win the hearts of the people. To quickly stabilize the entire territory of Guizhou, He Tengjiao is the key, and General Ma must not take it lightly. ”

Ma Liuliang replied indifferently: "Sour Xiucai." He reassured his people. I fight my battles, and I have nothing to do with each other. What the hell are you telling me this nonsense? ”

Seeing his attitude, Tang Yue was really worried that he would offend He Tengjiao, so he hurriedly sent Ma Liuliang a sycophant and said, "General Ma." You and He Tengjiao are now like a general and a phase in Guizhou. It will be discordant. It's inevitable that bad things will happen, and General Ma doesn't want to lose the credit he has received, right? ”

"Alright, alright. This time it's up to you. ”

Tang Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Ma Liuliang's gangsterism was too heavy, except for Ma Yongzhen and Qin Mu, no one else was in his eyes.

As the saying goes, it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to sit on the country, and now a large area is hurriedly laid, and it is overwhelming on the surface, but if there is no capable person to appease behind it, it is difficult to guarantee that the place will not be reversed.

This important task of winning the hearts of the people now depends on He Tengjiao, if Ma Liuliang offends He Tengjiao ruthlessly, things will not be easy to do.

To be honest, following Ma Liuliang to do things, Tang Yue knew that most of his energy was spent on this wild horse.

After hurriedly persuading Ma Liuliang, the two of them found He Tengjiao together, and after discussing it, it was decided to give He Tengjiao 500 men and horses, led by the deputy general He Jinan, with He Tengjiao's governor of the prefectures and counties just conquered, as well as Fudu Yunfu and Liping Mansion.

Among them, Liping Mansion is He Tengjiao's hometown, and the local officials have a close relationship with him, and I believe that He Tengjiao will be able to go down without a fight.

Ma Liuliang continued to take Chen Guimin as the lead, accelerating the advance to Guiyang City, from Pingyuewei to Guiyang City, there are still more than 200 miles, but the post road close to Guiyang is relatively flat, and the speed of the army's advance is getting faster and faster.

In Guiyang Mansion, Zhang Yao, the envoy of Guizhou, Zeng Yi, the political envoy of Bu, and Chen Ruizheng, the commander of the capital, received the news of the fall of the eastern states, and they couldn't help but be shocked;

Several people gathered at the political envoy Yamen to discuss countermeasures. Zhang Yao asked in a panic, "What should I do?" What can I do? Chen Guimin accepted the favor of the country in vain, and actually defected to the enemy, it is over, Guizhou is finished"

"Master Zhang!" The political envoy Zeng Yi shouted angrily, which shocked Zhang Yao and hurriedly shut down, but the hesitation on his face could not be concealed.

Zeng Yi turned his head to look at Chen Ruizheng, the commander of the capital, and said, "It's urgent, what countermeasures can Lord Chen have?" ”

Chen Ruizheng's eyes flickered a little, and he replied hesitantly: "Now it seems that only the three thousand men and horses of Wujiang Pass can be withdrawn to defend Guiyang." ”

Wujiang Pass is located in Yanglongkeng Division, which is the boundary point between Guizhou and Sichuan. It turned out that the men and horses sent to Wujiang Pass were mainly to prevent Liu Wenxiu from Luzhou from going south.

The area from Guiyang to Wujiangguan was originally the territory of the Song clan in Shuidong, and the Tusi of the Song clan in Shuidong was revoked in the fourth year of Chongzhen because of its participation in the rebellion of Luxury, and the Ming court took the opportunity to send officials to govern this area.

But the Song clan has been operating in this area for thousands of years, and the hundred-legged insects are dead but not stiff, and they still have a lot of strength in secret. Zeng Yi said worriedly: "I'm afraid that as soon as the soldiers and horses of Wujiang Pass are withdrawn, the area north of Guiyang and east of the Yachi River will all be out of control." ”

Chen Ruizheng said: "Lord Zeng, where can I take care of so much now? If we don't withdraw the troops of Wujiang Pass, I'm afraid that the land of Shuidong will not be able to be saved. An Rupan in Shuixi gathered an army of 20,000 and was eyeing Shuidong. The remnants of the Song family in Shuidong also have secret changes, and the 3,000 men and horses in Wujiang Pass may be blocked by them at any time, and if they don't retreat, they may never be able to retreat. ”

Zeng Yi sighed and said, "Since this is the case, then withdraw it." Guizhou's defense will be handed over to Lord Chen. ”

"What are you going to do, Lord Zeng?"

"This official wants to personally go to the Guizhou Propaganda Division, and he will be safe, if he can be persuaded to send troops to fight together, Guizhou still has something to do."

According to the inspector Zhang Yao, he hurriedly dissuaded: "Lord Zeng, you can't go." An Rupan is ambitious, and the opposite has been revealed, at this time, Lord Zeng went to find him, which is tantamount to throwing himself into a net, and he can't go to Lord Zeng. ”

Zeng Yi replied with a whole expression: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger?" Three hundred years of Ming monks, there should always be a few dead festivals for the country, this official goes, if he is not successful, he will become benevolent. Lord Chen, Guiyang will be entrusted to you. ”

"Take care, Lord Zeng." Chen Ruizheng was a little moved, and with a long sigh, he watched Zeng Yi go away.

At this time, the undercurrent in Guiyang City was already turbulent.

All along, Qin's energy was focused on fighting the Qing army, and it was relatively peaceful with the southwestern provinces, and it did not prohibit merchants from the provinces from interacting with the people.

The people of Huguang divided their fields and land, reduced rents and taxes, and lived a stable and beautiful life, and these things had long spread to Guizhou through the merchants who came and went. Now the night of the night sent to Guiyang is not collected, and the hype has made the people of Guiyang quite a little bit of the expectation of the people in the capital that "the king of Chuang will not pay for food".

With their efforts, Ma Liuliang's army has not yet reached Guiyang, and the hearts of the people in the city are already floating and crumbling.

In a commercial inn in Wushengmen, the east gate of Guiyang, Long Guangsheng, a thousand households stationed in Guizhou who did not accept at night, sipped tea while looking at the young people opposite.

This person is dressed as a businessman, he is about twenty-five years old, he is the only surviving son of Song Wanhua, his real name is Song Ping, and now he is known as Song Chou, under the cover of business.

Song Ping glanced back at him and replied lightly: "I don't ask for much, just restore my Shuidong Toast." ”

Long Guangsheng put down a cup of tea and said, "Since the Song Dong family is so refreshing, I will say it directly." It is impossible to restore the Shuidong Tusi, this is the general trend to change the soil and return to the stream, and the Tusi that has been removed, my king will definitely not set it up again. If the Song Dongjia is willing to cooperate, my king is willing to promise the position of Zhizhou, which is my king's bottom line. ”

"If the Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, then there is nothing to talk about."

Shuidong Song was originally a Han people, although it was originally a toast, but the world read poetry and books, like Song Xuan is still a famous poet in the Ming Dynasty, once wrote "the water is bright and the clouds are moving, and the Tang Yangbian boat is flooding." The cloud lock is empty and idle, and the two lines are returned to the Yan and the sun. Such verses. Influenced by the family, although Song Ping is also dressed as a businessman, he has the popularity of reading and speaks very calmly.

Long Guangsheng said with a smile: "An Rupan is eyeing Shuidong, I'm afraid that the two or three thousand people under the Song Dong family won't be able to please me, if there is no intervention from my Daqin, can the Song Dong family be confident that they can deal with An Rupan?" ”

Song Ping frowned slightly, he didn't expect Long Guangsheng to know so much about him.

What Long Guangsheng said is what he is most worried about, although the original territory of the Song family in Shuidong is only one-tenth of that of the Shuixi clan, it is the richest area in Guizhou, and the Shuixi clan has long been salivating.

Seeing that Song Ping was silent, Long Guangsheng continued: "The Song Dong family is a wise person, you should know that my Great Qin does not necessarily have to rely on the Song Dong family, but with the current strength of the Song Dong family, if you don't cooperate with my Great Qin, you have no chance at all." ”
