Han’s Son is Not a Slave

The few post soldiers from Guangxi rushed to the Qing army camp regardless of their horsepower. When they got off their horses, the people were too tired, and the horses could not survive. After handing over the 800-mile express delivery to the Admiral, these post soldiers were truly relieved and relieved. If this terrible errand were to be picked up once or twice, it would really make people feel tired. die.

"Take people down to rest and arrange food and drink for them."

Xian Guoan ordered the personal soldiers to take a few post soldiers down, while tearing open the seal and taking out the letter inside. The handwriting on it was indeed the font of Chen Weixin, the governor of Guangxi.

In the letter, Chen Weixin told Xian Guoan a very bad news. The Ming army of Guangdong had entered Guangxi with a navy boat from Xijiang a few days ago, and about ten thousand Ming army had attacked Wuzhou from the boat. In order to deal with the attack of the Ming army and prevent Wuzhou from losing, Ma Xiong, the chief soldier left behind, mobilized troops and horses from Guilin, Liuzhou and other places to defend Wuzhou. After that, Ma Xiong took advantage of the unsteady foothold of the Ming army, and led more than 15,000 horses to attack the city. But was defeated. In the fierce battle, Ma Xiong himself was killed, and his cavalry only escaped more than 200 cavalry, and the rest were annihilated by the Ming army. Dozens of generals and colonels below Li Ruchun, the deputy general of the Green Camp Fubiao, who accompanied them out of the city to fight, were killed in battle. After hearing the news of the defeat, Chen Weixin immediately sent more than 3,000 Guilin battalions to Wuzhou for reinforcements.

In the letter, Chen Weixin bluntly stated that due to the lack of communication, he did not know whether Wuzhou City was captured by the Ming army, and he did not have enough troops to rescue Wuzhou or repel the Ming army into Guilin, and he could not even defend Guilin. I sent 800 li urgently, requesting that the line Guoan could immediately lead his troops back to Guilin to prevent the Ming army from attacking Guilin, Xining, and Liuzhou where the defenders were empty after they captured Wuzhou. If these three houses are lost again, Guangxi will be completely restored. There are several ink dots on the back of the letter, one can imagine how anxious Chen Weixin was when he wrote the letter, and how hurried he was when he wrote the letter.

After reading Chen Weixin's letter, Xian Guoan's hand trembled slightly when he took the letter. The most worrying thing finally happened. The Ming army in Guangdong, which had defeated Prince Jian, King Pingnan, King Jingnan, and General Manzhou, finally freed up to attack Guangxi. The total number of soldiers and horses left behind in Guangxi was only 20,000, but Ma Xiong killed more than half of them in the Battle of Wuzhou. The remaining several thousand soldiers were divided into various places, which could not stop the Ming army in Guangdong at all. If he did not return to his teacher to rescue him, the result would be as Chen Weixin said, and the whole province of Guangxi would be restored. Whether to return to the teacher or not to return to the teacher, Xian Guoan has long advocated, but when it comes to the decision, he is still hesitant.

"Admiral, what did the Governor's letter say?"

The whole section saw the strangeness in Xian Guoan's slightly trembling hand, and he couldn't help but be slightly surprised. In his impression, the Admiral had always been in front of Mount Tai, and he could not change his face, but today his hands are shaking, I really don't know the governor The Lord said something terrible in this letter.

"See for yourself."

Xian Guoan didn't speak, just handed the letter over, picked up the letter throughout the section, read it carefully, and his expression changed instantly. What surprised him was not that Wuzhou was surrounded or captured by the Ming army, but that the Huihui soldiers under Ma Xiong had the entire Ming army beaten and wiped out. Only more than 200 people escaped, and Ma Xiong himself was also beheaded!

The combat effectiveness of the Guangdong Ming Army is really too terrifying. Although I had already learned about the changes in the Guangdong battle from Xian Guoan, Prince Jian Jidu led more than 20,000 Manchu, Mongolian and Han troops to call the Guangdong Ming Army to annihilate, but the whole section remains the same. Surprised by the powerful combat effectiveness of the Guangdong Ming Army.

"Wuzhou is the gateway to Guangxi. Once it is occupied by the Ming army, the other three palaces in Guangxi will be unable to defend. Admiral, I am afraid we must return to the division to rescue immediately, otherwise Guangxi will be lost." The idea of ​​returning to the teacher's rescue.

Xian Guoan glanced at him, then looked at the generals who looked shocked and concerned, but shook his head and said, "We won't go back."

"what?"

The whole section was stunned, and the other generals around were also stunned. The old nest was about to be taken over by the Ming army. How could the Admiral say that he couldn't save it.

Xian Guoan glanced at the generals and said solemnly: "General Zhao and I have agreed in Guizhou that if the Guangdong Ming army really enters Guangxi, no matter how the situation in Guangxi collapses, our army will not return, because our mission is only one. , that is to win Kunming!" Xian Guoan's hand pointed sharply in the direction of Kunming, "If the Yongli court does not solve it, it will be like a hundred-footed worm that dies and does not become stiff, and those forces that support Ming will also fight to the end with us. Therefore, Kunming must be captured, the thief must be captured first, and the king must be captured. Kunming is the heart of this hundred-legged worm. If we put a knife in the heart, the Guangdong Ming army can fight again, but it is only a leg on this hundred-footed worm without the heart. , this leg is just a dead thing no matter how long it is stretched!"

When the generals heard this, they all nodded subconsciously. The whole festival was a little hesitant. He hesitated: "Admiral, but if we don't return to the division, Guangxi will not be able to keep it. This is a province of land, so why should it be handed over to the Ming army?" When he spoke, his face was solemn. color.

Xian Guoan sneered and said: "As long as we can take Kunming and destroy the Yongli court, we will be able to run eastward in an instant with hundreds of thousands of troops from the Qing Dynasty entering Yunnan. What can the Ming army do with Guangxi, can they still hold it? ?"

The whole section heard the words, UU reading www. The dignified expression of uukanshu.com gradually dissipated, and what the Admiral said was true, even if Guangxi was occupied by the Ming army, now Yunnan, where the Yongli court is located, is about to be occupied by the Qing, the court and the emperor are gone, and the Guangdong Ming army is gone. What more waves can come up!

"Guangdong Ming army attacked Wuzhou for the purpose of entering the Qin Dynasty of Yunnan. If we returned to the division to rescue Guangxi, we would fall for their plan, so they attacked them and we attacked us. We have only one target, and that is Kunming! I think , at this moment, the head coach of the Guangdong Ming Army may have dreamed of me returning to the division."

"They want us to go back, but we won't go back. Kunming City is only a hundred miles away. Let's see how capable the Guangdong Ming Army is to beat us before Kunming City is destroyed." Yi Qing General Road.

Xian Guoan's eyes flashed fiercely, and he pointed at Guangxi Fucheng and said to the generals: "Everyone, the current situation has changed, we can't allow us to delay any longer, you go back and make more preparations, tomorrow dawn will attack the city together, after the city is broken, the original Let the officers and soldiers indulge for a day, and then we will attack Kunming with our troops, destroy Zhu Youlang, and then return to the division to compete with the Guangdong Ming Army!"

"Thank you, Admiral!"

The generals of the Qing army were overjoyed when they heard that the massacre of the city could be indulged. (To be continued.)
