At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!

Chapter 268 Declaration of War on the Han People!

At the celebration banquet, we hold happy events and funerals in the Qing Dynasty, or in other words, happy events or funerals.

A group of ministers mourned for Emperor Shunzhi in the palace decorated with lanterns and colors.

The wonderful celebration banquet was so disturbed by Sun Kewang that it turned into Emperor Shunzhi's Dragon Yu Bintian.

"You all tell us what we should do in the Qing Dynasty."

In the palace, Xiaozhuang sighed and burst into tears.

"Back to the Queen Mother, Xiao Wang still said the same thing. We, the Qing Dynasty, cannot withdraw. There is still a glimmer of life left in the customs. If we leave the customs, we will definitely die!" Yue Le sighed.

"That's what you all mean?" Xiaozhuang looked around and asked.

"Queen Mother, we are all old, can we still come out of seclusion?" Sony sighed.

"Young people are not sensible. They have enjoyed so many years of blessings in Beijing, so how can they know the hardships of white mountains and black waters."

"Besides, we still have 100,000 new troops, and Prince Xin has returned north, so the Qing Dynasty still has the strength to fight."

"And it may not be a bad thing for Sun Kewang to occupy Jiangnan."

"If he shows too much talent, he will definitely become the target of public criticism. Wu Sangui, Zheng Chenggong, and Li Laiheng may not have any ideas."

"The Qing Dynasty is just waiting for death by retreating outside the pass."

"If the Han people stay in the pass and there is civil strife, we, the Qing Dynasty, may not be able to wait for a turn of events!"

Xiaozhuang also nodded.

She walked out of the house where these core figures lived and came to the main hall.

The place was full of Manchu ministers, most of whom were the new generation of Manchu nobles, and not a single Han Chinese.

"You all tell me."

Looking at these young Manchus, she said slowly.

When these Manchu young men heard this, they knelt on the ground and said nothing.

They don't have much ability, and at this critical juncture, they don't even dare to breathe.

"Okay, if you don't tell me, I will."

Xiaozhuang walked slowly and said word by word: "The Han people are powerful and we can't defeat them. In other words, if we beat them, we will die."

She paused, glanced at these important Manchu ministers, and her tone suddenly became sharp.

"But if you don't fight, you will die!"

"It's better to be beaten to death than to be scared to death!"

"Today, I have made it clear. I, the Manchus, would rather die in battle and lose our country, than give away the country!"

As soon as this statement came out, the crowd immediately became commotion.

Xiaozhuang continued: "Come here and draw up a decree!"

"It is destined to be carried by heaven, the emperor decreed."

"The Han people bullied me so much that the country was about to perish."

"Rather than just trying to survive and be embarrassed forever, how about a big attack and a showdown between the male and female!"

"I! I solemnly swear an oath today!"

"Start the war with Sun Kewang, the Han!"

"Start war with the Han Wu Sangui!"

"Start war with the Han Zheng Chenggong!"

"Start war with the Han Li Dingguo!"

"Start war with the Han Li Laiheng!"

"Challenge Zhang Huangyan to the Han people! Start a war!"

"Fight the Han Hong Chengchou! Start a war!"

"Fight the Han Zhu Youlang! Start a war!"

"Appreciate this!"

Xiaozhuang, who had just died of his son, issued the edict in the tone of his own son.

We call on all the loyal ministers and filial sons of the Qing Dynasty to fight for our Qing Dynasty to the end.

Of course, this edict must be modified to avoid the adverse effects caused by too strong words.

In particular, Wu Sangui and Hong Chengchou, who had not yet formally rebelled, could not join in when they declared the world.

We are all like this in the Qing Dynasty, we have to learn to be patient.

On August 1659, AD, Emperor Shunzhi passed away.

Xiaozhuang made his five-year-old grandson Xuan Ye emperor as the empress dowager, and directly changed this year to the first year of Xuantong.

The word Xuantong entrusts the good wishes of our Qing Dynasty. It is in line with the tradition of our Qing Dynasty to use this as the year name when the world is about to lose.

Just when Sun Kewang captured Jiangnan, Wu Sangui of Yungui, Ao Bai of Shaanxi and Gansu, and Li Laiheng of Jingxiang each made their own moves.

Since learning the news of Dhoni's defeat in May, Wu Sangui decided to launch an army against the Qing Dynasty.

But before raising the army, he also planned to welcome back his eldest son Wu Yingxiong, and lead his troops westward to collect the remaining soldiers of the Western Camp and bring back Yongli.

Since Wu Sangui's westward march, he has continuously conveyed his wishes to the Xiying generals across Yunnan through various methods.

King Pingxi's westward march was not for other reasons, but to welcome Yongli back to the Qing Dynasty and restore Ming'er.

Along the way, the remaining defeated generals from the Western Camp came to surrender from time to time, but Qi Sansheng and others were still watching.

They were unwilling to cooperate with Li Dingguo to avoid ending up like He Jiuyi.

He was also afraid that he would fall into Wu Sangui's scheme and end up shaving off his hair and becoming a Qing Dynasty.

At this moment, the time for each battalion to escape to death was still short. Although the situation was difficult, it had not yet reached the point where the camp was completely out of food and had to surrender, so there were not many Wu Sangui soldiers and horses who came to seek refuge.

Wu Sangui also had no intention of sending troops to force the generals. He thought that after receiving his eldest son and welcoming Yongli back, all the battalions would come to surrender.

But once he brought his main force closer to Yongchang, the situation changed.

Although Yongchang is still in the hands of Wu Jun at this time.

However, Yang Wu and others on the Yunnan-Myanmar border were ready to make a move and planned to contact the chieftain to regain Yongchang.

If Wu Sangui hadn't brought the main force here, Yang Wu would have taken action by now.

In history, Yang Wu and others did regain Tengyue, but they did not capture Yongchang.

And in Lijiang and Yongning two prefectures north of Yongchang.

Ma Bao, Ma Weixing, Ma Jinzhong's son Ma Zide, general soldiers Yang Cheng, Zhao Wu and others are entrenched here.

This Ming army was relatively powerful. Ma Bao and Ma Weixin each had thousands of soldiers, and Ma Zide also had many of Ma Jinzhong's old troops in his hands.

The Ming army in the second mansion totaled more than 15,000 people.

If the Ming army in this area cannot be surrendered.

Once Wu Sangui leads the main force into Myanmar, he may have worries.

At this time, Wu Sangui did not know where Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan were.

If the Ming army in Yongchang was not dealt with, the two of them led troops north to capture Yongchang during his entry into Myanmar.

Then Wu Sangui became Li Dingguo now.

So the main force of the Wu army arrived in Yongchang. After careful consideration, Wu Sangui wrote a sincere letter to Ma Bao and others.

On the one hand, he personally led his troops northward and wanted to solve the problem of retreat.

Facing the arrival of Wu Jun, Ma Bao and others felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.

He led his troops and stood ready in the Lijiang area.

At this time, the food in the charity warehouse set up by Sun Kewang in Lijiang had not yet been exhausted, so Ma Bao and others were not yet in dire straits, so they were really unwilling to surrender.

However, Wu Sangui's sincere words in the letter, and even told him about the Hunan incident, made them suspicious again.

At this time, Wu Fan's general Hu Guozhu took the initiative to come to Lijiang City in person, cut off his braid to make his ambition clear, and swore an oath.

He personally stated his interests to Ma Bao and others, and entered the city in person as a pledge, hoping that Ma Bao could go out of the city and have a good talk with Wu Sangui.

Ma Bao and others were moved by Hu Guozhu's sincerity and decided to talk to Wu Sangui.

The two sides agreed to meet in a courtyard outside the city, each bringing five hundred troops to guard against any eventuality. Wu Sangui was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately ignored the obstruction of his close associates and went with only fifty guards to express his sincerity to Ma Bao and others.

In the courtyard, seeing Wu Sangui, Ma Bao and others paying so much attention to details, they couldn't help but be moved.

"Mr. Huai Guo, I have always heard of the general's reputation. It is a great honor to meet him today!"

In the courtyard, Wu Sangui laughed boldly and put down his royal attitude.

"Pingxi King Gaoyi came here with only fifty guards. It's really embarrassing for me." Ma Bao and others said in succession.

"Haha, the general said something strong."

Wu Sangui cupped his hands and said: "This king is willing to take Yongli back and then raise an army to fight against the prisoners. I wonder if the general is willing to help me?"

When Ma Bao and others saw this, they were greatly moved, but until now they still had some doubts in their hearts.

Seeing what Ma Bao and others were doing, Wu Sangui instantly drew his sword.

When everyone was shocked, he raised the knife and cut off his braid.

"I have been wearing this braid for fifteen years. During these fifteen years, I have never wanted to cut it off and start a new life!"

"Now the opportunity has finally come."

He murmured to himself, filled with emotion.

Seeing Wu Sangui doing this, Ma Bao and others were all worried. They knelt on the ground and saluted Wu Sangui one by one.

"Your Majesty is so righteous, it's us who use the heart of a villain to judge His Majesty's belly!"

"The soldiers and horses of Lijiang and Yongning are willing to listen to the prince's orders!"

As soon as this was said, Wu Sangui was overjoyed and quickly helped Ma Bao and others up.

"A general alone is better than thousands of troops!" He squeezed Ma Bao's hand and said excitedly.

Ma Bao was extremely moved when he saw that Wu Sangui valued him so much.

"Ma Bao is not talented, but he is valued by the prince. From now on, he will be willing to go through fire and water for the prince without any hesitation!"

Wu Sangui immediately made a bloody alliance with the generals. They agreed to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty together.

At this point, the Ming army in Lijiang and Yongning was controlled by Wu Sangui.

During Wu Sangui's trip, he received a total of 16,324 brave and capable soldiers.

And hundreds of generals including Ma Bao swore allegiance.

After surrendering Ma Bao and others, Wu Sangui led his troops to continue westward and reached the Yunnan-Myanmar border.

When he left Kunming, he originally led more than 35,000 troops, and was assisted by 5,000 chieftains.

During the march, more than 4,000 Ming troops were collected, and now Ma Bao and other troops were obtained.

Today, Wu Sangui leads an army of 60,000 to directly attack the enemy.

When the Myanmar border troops learned of Wu Sangui's arrival, they felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.

After Wu Sangui negotiated to no avail, he marched in with 60,000 troops and horses.

As if the Burmese were facing a formidable enemy, the soldiers and horses guarding the border immediately dispersed.

After entering Myanmar, Ma Bao took the initiative to ask for help.

Recruiting Yang Wu, Wu Zisheng, Gao Wengui, Wu Sansheng and others in this area for Wu Sangui.

Yang Wu immediately surrendered with more than 7,000 troops.

Gao Wengui, Wu Zisheng, and Wu Sheng were Li Dingguo's old Jin army.

After the Battle of Mopanshan, they followed Li Dingguo's order to cut off the rear in western Yunnan and gather the remaining soldiers from all walks of life.

Originally, they had gathered thousands of soldiers and horses in the border area and were preparing to go south to join forces with Li Dingguo.

But once He Jiuyi died, nearly 10,000 Qin soldiers under his command were scattered everywhere.

Gao Wengui and others also took in He's soldiers and received news of He Jiuyi's death.

Wu Sangui also sent envoys to contact them. Although they did not surrender, they did not destroy the books and kill the envoys.

Therefore, after learning that He Jiuyi died tragically, these Jin generals did not dare to go south, so they stayed at the border of western Yunnan.

After Emperor Yongli entered Myanmar, they also led troops to Myanmar to pick him up. They wanted to use Emperor Yongli as a hub to explain clearly to Li Dingguo and reconcile the principals and ministers.

But it was blocked by Emperor Yongli's edict.

So I have been waiting in western Yunnan until now.

During this period, Gao Wengui, who was lucky enough to survive the Battle of Mopan Mountain, was worried about the situation.

In addition, his body was seriously injured and he died.

Now Wu Zisheng and Wu Sansheng are left in charge of this army.

Faced with Wu Sangui's surrender and Ma Bao's persuasion.

Wu Zisheng decided to lead his troops to surrender, but Wu Sansheng was unwilling to surrender to Wu Sangui, and finally decided to lead his troops south to look for Li Dingguo.

Ma Bao and Wu Zisheng immediately persuaded him, but Wu Sansheng insisted that he was unwilling to surrender Wu Sangui, a man with the same surname.

In the end, the army was divided into two, and Wu Zisheng led more than 5,000 troops to surrender to Wu Sangui.

Wu Sansheng led more than 2,000 troops south to look for Li Dingguo.

At this point, Wu Sangui had wiped out all the Xiying troops in western Yunnan, and his strength had expanded to more than 70,000!

However, Li Dingguo, who was originally able to integrate these Xiying troops, was now in Burma with thousands of troops and Bai Wenxuan to rescue Emperor Yongli.

The various ministries in Xiying voted for Wu but not for Li. It is really embarrassing to discuss in detail.

After cleaning up the western Yunnan area, we obtained elite soldiers and generals such as Ma Bao, Ma Weixing, Yang Wu, Wu Zisheng, Yang Cheng, and Zhao Wu.

Wu Sangui was high-spirited and rolled towards Burma with his mighty army.

At this time, Myanmar was also in turmoil.

Since Emperor Yongli entered Burma, the court officials still put on airs in Burma at first.

These people had no pain of national subjugation and were unwilling to rely on their own efforts. Instead, they asked the Burmese to provide for the food, clothing, housing and transportation of their ministers.

A Burmese official said angrily: "All ministers of the Ming Dynasty are like this, no wonder you and other monarchs and ministers will live in our country."

Seeing that the Burmese people were unwilling to support them, these courtiers went to the Burmese women one by one to show off and beg for food.

Ma Jixiang and others opened a casino in Ava and enjoyed gambling every day. Emperor Yongli was furious and sent people to destroy the casino.

But the next day Ma Jixiang and others were still the same, and Emperor Yongli was helpless.

When the ministers of the Southern Ming Dynasty were in a state of ugliness, Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan joined forces.

After the two armies joined together, since Bai Wenxuan brought more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, the two armies still had a total of 20,000 people.

Li Dingguo's military power was greatly enhanced, so he decided to lead troops to take back Emperor Yongli.

After discussing with Bai Wenxuan, he decided to let the powerful Bai Wenxuan lead his troops to Mozheng and Yonghui to welcome Emperor Yongli back.

Bai Wenxuan led his troops and quickly marched to the Nandu River.

He first sent an envoy to contact the Burmese magistrate, but was killed.

He then sent ten more cavalrymen who were killed again.

The Burmese believed that the Nanming army was completely defeated at this time and did not take Bai Wenxuan seriously.

After killing two waves of envoys, they saw that there were many horses in Bai Wen's army, so they sent troops to seize the horses.

Bai Wenxuan was furious and immediately organized his troops to fight back.

All the Burmese soldiers who snatched horses were driven to the Nandu River and drowned.

Seeing this, the Burmese army reacted and quickly organized their troops to defend on the other side of the river relying on the strength of their numbers.

Bai Wenxuan quickly set up a raft to cross the river and sent a hundred cavalry to attack first.

Although there are tens of thousands of Burmese troops on the other side, their formation is scattered and disorganized.

Under the charge of Baiqi, they fell into chaos.

Bai Wenxuan was overjoyed when he saw this, and quickly ordered all the troops to cross over to respond.

Under the attack of Baibu soldiers, tens of thousands of Burmese troops were defeated, and more than 10,000 people were killed by the Ming army.
