Chapter 104 Collapse (15)
After defeating the imaginary enemy, Ma Jixiang entered the "stealth" mode again and prepared for the move in accordance with the imperial edict. Two days later, Emperor Yongli and his courtiers took the lead in setting off under the escort of Pingyang Marquis Jin Tongwu.
Li Dingguo was left behind to lead his troops.
On the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month in the twelfth year of Yongli, there was a camp in the south of Xinxing Prefecture in Chenjiang Prefecture. This was a guerrilla camp directly under the Jin Dynasty. However, the guerrilla general was not from the old Xi camp, but from Li Dingguo's recovery of Guangdong.
A Qing army surrendered general named Wang Dana. When Li Dingguo and Chen Kai teamed up to regain Guangdong, he led his troops to surrender to Li Dingguo. Later, Li Dingguo welcomed Li Dingguo into Yunnan, and he also led his troops to follow. Later, Sun Kewang had internal quarrels, and he also participated in the war.
, and fought against the Qin vassal army. After a few years, although they were far less friendly than those in the old Western camp, they could still be regarded as peripheral generals within the Jin vassal.
It was already afternoon, and the drizzle was falling, adding a bit of chill to the already wet and cold weather. The drills had stopped, and Wang Dana was sitting in the office as usual, but today was destined to be different from the past. Several of his guards
, all the presidents gathered in the tent, talking to each other, arguing endlessly, but they all lowered their voices, fearing that the walls had ears.
"Today is the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month. The imperial court decided to move seven days ago and set off five days ago. Now even His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin, who was behind, is about to leave. But until today, I still meet with the Marshal on weekdays.
Our good friend, General Wu, sent someone to inform us privately. It is clear that the Jin Palace does not regard us as their own family!"
"Damn, so many days, it's okay if it's far away. This Chenjiang Mansion is next to Yunnan Mansion, right in front of Kunming. Even if it's like this, his true confidants must have gotten the news early. I think we are shameless.
If you follow him, you may not end up well."
"Then what should we do, turn the grass into bandits, or surrender to the Tatars? Don't forget, we are surrendering the army, and we will be able to surrender if we surrender again, okay?"
"So what, Sun Kewang's messengers have been traveling around in the past year. They have visited all the civil and military officials in Yunnan and Guizhou. It's not like they have never come to see our commander. Now they are here to invite us, not us rushing back. I think.
As for Sun Kewang, His Highness the King of Jin beat him down to only a few dozen birds. The Qing Dynasty still crowned him a prince. Our commander-in-chief still has hundreds of soldiers and horses. At worst, he can still serve as a guerrilla general and go further.
Level is not impossible."
"..."
As he said, Chenjiang Prefecture is adjacent to Yunnan Prefecture where Kunming is located, and Xinxing Prefecture is only more than a hundred miles away from Kunming. The fast horse is only an hour away, and it was moved to avoid the front of the Qing army.
Kunming didn't even notify them of such a big thing, which was really unreasonable.
Several subordinates were arguing in the big tent, and Wang Dana was also the leader. To be fair, since he surrendered the Ming army in Guangdong, he has followed Li Dingguo wholeheartedly. In the past few years, there has been no credit but hard work.
He doesn't want to believe that his family will become an abandoned son. However, until today, he has not received a formal notice. How can this feeling of being left out prevent people from going in those bad directions?
What about Lenovo?
The quarrel in the big tent became more and more intense, but even so, these guys did not dare to open their voices to quarrel - Li Dingguo had not left yet, in case the King of Jin sent someone to inform him at this time, and the messenger heard something that should not be
Listen, they still need their heads.
He looked at the quarrels among his subordinates with a gloomy face. The more he listened, the less innovative he became. The core thoughts that came back and forth were nothing more than "Prince Jin doesn't want us anymore" and "What should we do?" and other nonsense.
A group of resentful women who have been abandoned by their husbands, how can they still have any martial spirit?
The more he listened, the more irritated he became. The idea that it was time to end this discussion became clearer in Wang Dana's mind. Just when he was about to slam the table to stop the normal activities below, a soldier pushed in the door.
, reported that a spy had been caught near Chengnan Station and had been taken outside the tent.
"Elaborate work?"
At this moment, it was the stall where the Qing army entered the country, so it was only natural that there should be Xizuo activities. There was no doubt that he was there. Wang Dana was just getting angry and had not vented his anger. Seeing that Xiazuo was already outside the tent, he directly let him go.
The soldiers escorted him in.
The door opened, and a group of soldiers and a man in disguise filed in. However, if you look closely, you can see that each of the soldiers had bruises and swollen faces, and none of their weapons were missing. They supported each other and stumbled in, and saw Wang Dana getting more weapons.
It was like an orphan seeing his biological parents. He wished he could throw himself into his arms and cry bitterly. But the man who pretended to be so handsome didn't have any damage on his body. He probably didn't even lose a hair. He was carrying a handful of them.
The five-foot-long Miao Dao swaggered into the Chinese army's tent...
"Who the hell escorted whom here?!"
Seeing this, Wang Dana was so angry that he almost threw his back. Several officers under his command also immediately saw the problem, drew their swords in their hands, and shouted loudly at the man.
"So that the general will know that a certain person has come all the way from Guangdong to deliver a message to His Highness the King of Jin, following Chen Zhijun's military order. But these men under your command insist that a certain person is a meticulous work, which is so unreasonable."
The well-dressed man raised his head and yelled angrily. After Wang Dana listened, he turned to look at the group of soldiers, but each of them was timid and did not dare to speak. It was not until he named the captain who led him that he finally understood what was going on.
The whole story.
It turned out that this group of soldiers was patrolling near Chengnan Post Station at that time. They saw a man with a Henan accent coming to the post station to ask for a stagecoach horse. However, the postmaster refused by saying that he could ask for a stagecoach horse if he wanted to change trains. The two sides were arguing, and the group of soldiers then asked for a stagecoach horse.
After they passed, they disagreed and started fighting. They thought they could easily win, but they didn't know that a team of more than ten fully armed soldiers were beaten to pieces by one man. What's even more exaggerated is that,
The man didn't even take out his sword and subdued them effortlessly.
"Who called him Guigui..."
In the middle of speaking, the captain subconsciously glanced at the handsome man, then quickly stopped talking and looked at Wang Dana expectantly, hoping that the commander would make the decision for them, so he was so angry.
"A bunch of trash!"
After an angry rebuke, Dana Wang did not stand up for them. Instead, he frowned and looked at the well-dressed man with suspicion: "The Chen Zhijun you just mentioned is the current governor and governor of Guangdong and Jiangxi.
Governor of Guangdong, Mr. Chen Kai and Chen, who holds the title of Minister of the Ministry of War and Censor of Zuodu of the Inspectorate?"
"It's Mr. Chen."
"Do you have anything that can prove your identity?"
Hearing this, the well-dressed man did not hesitate. He took out a customs clearance document from his arms and handed it to a soldier. The latter sent it to Wang Dana's case and directly handed it to him.
The man picked up the customs clearance document, looked at it carefully, and called the master to compare it carefully. The master compared it for a long time, quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and whispered to Wang Dana:
"Master, it's true."
Hearing this, Wang Dana sighed: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, we are all doing things for the imperial court, please don't mind me, strong man." He casually waved away the soldiers, and continued: "Say
Come on, I was lucky enough to see Mr. Chen in Guangdong back then. In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of soldiers were wiped out. It’s really fresh in my memory. May I ask how Mr. Chen is doing now?"
Upon hearing these words, the man in well-dressed face changed slightly, but he still held the Miao Dao in his hand and did not dare to be careless at all: "It turns out that the general is an old acquaintance of Mr. Chen, so it was a misunderstanding." As he said that, he took the knife from his sleeve.
He took out a few ingots of silver and said he wanted to give them to the soldiers to look after the doctor, but Wang Dana politely refused.
This person was none other than Yu Youhan. A few months ago, he was ordered to deliver a message to Kunming. It went smoothly at first, but after passing Liuzhou, the guide who led the way became seriously ill. He was in the wilderness at the time, and he finally found a
Tu Langzhong stabilized the guide's condition, but he had to wait for a long time before he could set out again. He was on a mission, so he didn't dare to delay, so he set off alone. However, he got lost in the mountains in western Guangxi and spent a lot of money.
After a few days, I ran out of dry food before I found the official road again. Then I was galloping all the way. Who knew that when I arrived at Guangxi Prefecture, east of Chenjiang Prefecture, I changed to a post horse, I was put aside by the postmaster again and replaced with a sick horse.
The horse came out. He was in a hurry and didn't pay attention. Sure enough, the sick horse fell down and died on the road, which made him furious.
Next, he had to rely on his two legs. It was his first time to come to Yunnan, so he inevitably took some wrong turns. He finally arrived in Xinxing Prefecture and found out where the inn was. Not only did he not get the money he asked for,
Yima was even misunderstood by a group of Ming soldiers as Xizuo, and he was also very angry, all of which was directed at these guys.
"Since the strong man still has important responsibilities on his shoulders, I will not leave the strong man to eat. Come, prepare a fast horse for the strong man. It has delayed the affairs of His Highness King Jin and Mr. Chen, so be careful with your heads!"
After confirming Yu Youhan's identity, all the officers also stopped their activities. When Dana Wang sent Yu Youhan away, they planned to continue the discussion just now, but their general stopped him with his hand.
"There is no need to discuss it anymore. The ship must be on the shore, or the ship must be on the shore. His Highness King Jin didn't think of informing us, but we have to follow His Highness King Jin. Even if things don't wait, we can't rebel and surrender to Tartar.
On the other side, how will we face our ancestors after death? What's more, His Highness the King of Jin is brave and invincible. Even if he suffers a slight setback, he will definitely be able to defeat the Tatars. The current situation is not good for the court.
, if we can follow you to the death, His Highness the King of Jin will definitely know that we are sincere. Besides, even if His Highness the King of Jin can't do anything to the Tatars for a while, with Mr. Chen's clever plan, the Tatars will not last long.
