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

"Drive!" Li Dingguo galloped in front of the elephant array.

Under the roar of the elephant, almost all the war horses of the Ming army did not dare to approach the elephant.

Only the mount on Dingguo's crotch, 'Er Doujin', has followed Dingguo in battles for many years and is quite understandable about human nature.

Therefore, it can launch a charge under the control of its master.

Behind him, five hundred Ming army elites roared towards the war elephant with spears in hand.

When they saw Li Dingguo rushing up with these few people, the Burmese army generals couldn't help laughing.

Without firearms, using manpower to challenge a behemoth like an elephant was undoubtedly a recipe for death for Li Dingguo in their eyes!

There was an elephant cry, and Hua Xiang, who was leading the charge, rushed directly towards Li Dingguo under the trend of the elephant soldiers.

The rest of the war elephants followed the leader and pressed against the Ming army with overwhelming force.

Li Dingguo's eyes were extremely solemn, and he rushed to the front of Hua Xiang with two buckets of gold.

An elephant chirped, and the flower elephant suddenly launched an attack.

"Drive!" Li Dingguo pushed his legs hard, and Er Doujin quickly moved away, avoiding Hua Xiang's fatal blow.

Then a horse pole flashed with cold light, and Li Dingguo roared angrily.

Holding the spear in both hands, he stabbed the elephant's trunk hard.

A miserable howl sounded, and Hua Xiang raised his feet and shed countless blood.

Under Li Dingguo's full blow, its trunk was directly penetrated by the horse.

With a loud bang, Huaxiang's huge head was thrown painfully, and Li Dingguo fell to the ground together with his horse and man.

At this moment, King Li Jin tried his best, stood up, and suddenly pulled out the saber from his waist.

With lightning speed, he grabbed the trunk of the flower elephant and stabbed it.

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, and the elephant's trunk was broken off.

It seemed that both the Ming Army and the Burmese Army were stunned.

Another miserable howl sounded, and the flower elephant whose trunk was cut off screamed and turned around and ran back, while the war elephants behind it were also in chaos.

"Brothers, kill!"

The five hundred soldiers roared angrily, picked up their spears and charged into the elephant formation to engage in hand-to-hand combat with these behemoths.

These veterans of the Western Camp either stabbed with spears or chopped with knives.

He actually killed more than thirty Burmese army war elephants in an instant while standing upright!

At the same time, Bai Wenxuan quickly waved the flag, taking advantage of the Ming army's morale boosted by Li Dingguo's operations, and issued the order for a general attack.

For a time, by the Xibo River.

Countless war elephants were killed in hand-to-hand combat by the soldiers of the Western Camp.

The Burmese army's elephant formation suddenly collapsed!

"Is it possible that this Ming army is really a force from heaven?"

Bianya Li and others looked at the scene in front of them, dumbfounded, and murmured to themselves

Where has he seen such a scene before?

The Ming army clearly ran out of gunpowder, but when they encountered so many war elephants, they retreated instead of advancing, breaking the elephant array in hand-to-hand combat.

With such a ferocious army, how can we fight this battle?

An elephant that was killed by two-legged beasts and upright apes was so frightened that it urinated and turned back and rushed towards the Burmese army's formation.

Behind him, countless Ming troops were brutally pursuing him.

After some mental calculation, this smart war elephant finally chose the Burmese army in front of the scattered Ming army and the formed Burmese army.

With a bang, the war elephant rushed into the Burmese army's formation, and immediately rushed away seven or eight Burmese soldiers.

Then they went on a rampage, trampling and killing countless Burmese soldiers.

Behind it, more Burmese army war elephants were frightened and broke into the Burmese army formation.

In an instant, the originally somewhat scattered Burmese army formation suddenly became chaotic.

At this moment, the Ming army infantry, who were red-eyed, entered the Burmese army.

Like a sharp knife, it instantly cut the Burmese army's formation into sections like butter.

After the Ming army defeated the Burmese elephant formation, Bai Wenxuan quickly mobilized his cavalry to flank the Burmese army.

When dusk fell, countless corpses of Burmese soldiers and war elephants appeared under the setting sun on the banks of the Sibo River.

The Burmese king's 150,000-strong army was defeated by Li and Bai, and most of the thousand war elephants were lost.

A large number of Ming army soldiers were covered in blood, waving their weapons, and roared heartily in the river and on the river bank.

That night, the Ming army set up piles of bonfires and roasted elephant meat, and everyone sang and danced with great excitement.

Li Dingguo also smiled, but when he looked at the scarred soldiers, his heart suddenly sank.

"Our army is already less than 20,000, and I have lost a thousand of my brothers in this battle. I don't know what will happen in the future..."

Li Dingguo let out a long sigh and started drinking.

He and Bai Wenxuan were like heavenly soldiers and generals in Myanmar, unrivaled.

But in this barbarian land, he and Bai Wenxuan were rootless after all.

Every death of the Ming army means one less. The Burmese can lose countless times, but Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan cannot afford to lose!

After defeating the main force of the Burmese army in the Battle of Xibo, Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan quickly marched into Ava.

While talking to the King of Burma and trying to take Yongli out peacefully, he secretly sent an envoy with a memorial to contact the Yongli court, trying to use internal and external efforts to rescue Yongli in one fell swoop.

Then the memorial issued by Dingguo was like a stone sinking into the sea, without any news.

He angrily reported again: "I have been writing for more than thirty years, but I don't know whether it will be reached? Now I have an appointment with the King of Burma. Where can I hand it in?"

"But all the gentlemen only care about their own happiness and are not concerned about danger. What can I do? What can I do?"

Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan were already in a difficult situation, and the Yongli court was only waiting in Ava to welcome them. They were counting on Li Dingguo, which made King Li Jin extremely angry.

However, Adou, who Yongli could not help, did not dare to make any move under the threat of the Burmese.

He even issued an imperial edict frantically to please the Burmese people.

"I have sailed to Fujian, and there will be officers and soldiers from various battalions coming later. We can fight hard to annihilate them!"

The world only knows Zhu Qizhen's name.

But who knew that in Myanmar, the timid and short-sighted Zhu Youlang issued an imperial edict for the Burmese to wipe out Li Dingguo, Bai Wenxuan and other loyal people!

After receiving the imperial edict, Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan were filled with indignation and chilled. They were already chilled by the emperor's cowardice.

"Your Majesty, if I had known this, why did you do it in the first place?" Li Dingguo held his chest and said painfully.

I don’t know what to use to describe what this emperor has done.

But Li Dingguo still didn't give up.

He and Bai Wenxuan raised money in various ways, and bribed the Burmese people with large sums of money to go to Shu Yongli Emperor. Shu Yun said: "I dare not attack the Burmese in succession, for fear that the Burmese will be destroyed before the damage is done to the Emperor! For the present plan, many parties have been entrusted to ensure that the Burmese are sent out to ensure stability."

Then at this moment, another imperial edict came.

"The king of Jin, Li Dingguo, and the king of Gongchang, Bai Wenxuan, accepted the order."

"The Emperor is entrusted with the destiny of heaven, and the edict says: The imperial court has always maintained friendship with the vassal state and treated me very kindly."

"But you are raising an army for no reason to destroy the friendship between me and the king of Burma, are you afraid that you will not trap me and the two palaces in injustice?"

"I will withdraw my troops now, defend the territory, and resist the Qing invaders."

"If you don't retreat, you will be considered as treason!"

As soon as this edict was issued, Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan continued to march, and they became traitors to the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Qizhen just called the door, but Zhu Youlang not only ordered the Burmese to destroy the troops loyal to him, but also declared Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan to be traitors.

Compared with him, Zhu Qizhen was considered to have some backbone. After all, he just called the door.

He did not issue an edict saying that the civil and military forces in Beijing were rebellious.

Under great pressure, Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan continued to march into Ava in an attempt to save Yongli.

After the defeat, the Burmese people panicked and sent troops to surround the exiled imperial court, preventing Yongli monarchs and ministers from having any chance of contact with the outside world. They regarded Emperor Yongli's rare commodity as a life-saving straw.

Upon seeing this, Mu Tianbo, Duke of Guizhou, knew that the situation was not good, and quickly invited Wang Qilong, the former commander-in-chief of the King of Jin, to come to his residence to discuss countermeasures.

When night fell, Wang Qilong was invited to quietly come to Mu Tianbo's residence. He carefully observed the surroundings and made sure that there was no one around, and quickly and gently knocked on the wood door.

Soon the door was opened a crack, and Wang Qilong ducked in.

Mu Tianbo was sitting in the room with his eyes closed, and he heard a rush of footsteps approaching from far away, and then stopped abruptly at the door. Then came the voice of his confidant Li Chengqi: "Master, Mr. Wang coming."

Hearing that Wang Qilong had arrived, Mu Tianbo quickly opened his eyes, stood up, and said impatiently: "Please come quickly!"

Before he finished speaking, Wang Qilong walked quickly into the thatched hut, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, Lord General!"

"You came just in time. I have something I want to discuss with you!" Mu Tianbo smiled and pulled Wang Qilong to a seat and said, "Come, sit down first and then talk."

Waiting until Mu Tianbo sat down opposite him, Wang Qilong cupped his fists towards Mu Tianbo and said, "Please let me know clearly!"

Mu Tianbo put away his smile and went straight to the topic with a solemn expression: "The general is my great pillar, a person that your majesty can rely on. However, now that traitors are in power in the court, your majesty is trapped in the country of Burma, sitting in a well and looking at the sky every day. According to your See, how can I get out of trouble?"

Wang Qilong frowned: "With me waiting at court, I can always protect His Majesty from the wind and rain. Besides, King Jin's army is not far away, and King Liang Mian does not dare to act rashly."

Mu Tianbo sighed and said: "Having said that, there are rumors that the Burmese King is colluding with Wu Sangui, and His Majesty has no soldiers around him. If the Burmese King is really malicious and wants to murder Your Majesty, I will wait for my death. But the Ming Dynasty’s 300-year-old foundation will be ruined. How can we afford it?”

Wang Qilong also let out a sigh, with a bit of sadness in his eyes: "What the Lord General said is absolutely true. What do you have in mind, Lord General, but it doesn't matter, the general will be saved even if he risks his life." Your Majesty is out of danger!"

At the end of the speech, Wang Qilong burst into tears.

"I have a plan in mind. It can be said that everything is ready. All we need is the east wind." Mu Tianbo paused for a moment, and then continued, "If we want to save His Majesty, we can only get rid of the traitors Ma Jixiang and Li Guotai around His Majesty first. This ensures nothing goes wrong.”

Wang Qilong's eyes flashed when he heard this. Ma Jixiang and Li Guotai were arrogant and insulting the officials.

Even Emperor Yongli is now deeply disgusted. The two of them also know that if they escape from danger, Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan will directly kill them after learning about their misdeeds.

Therefore, the two men tried every means to prevent their escape. Only by killing the two men and clearing up the internal troubles in the court could they have a chance to protect Yongli and escape.

"Your Majesty, these two are senior officials of the imperial court after all. If we do this, I'm afraid your Majesty will blame you." Wang Qilong said slowly.

After hearing this, Mu Tianbo stood up from his seat and said solemnly: "In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures should be used! To be honest with the general, I have secretly contacted a group of people who dare to die, and plan to find an opportunity to eliminate Ma Jixiang and Li The two Cathay thieves.”

"Then we will protect the prince to break out and defect to the king of Jin. If the general agrees, we will make a detailed plan. If the general refuses, just go and tell the two thieves, but you will die, so why worry?"

"Protect the prince to break out?" Wang Qilong's eyes suddenly widened and he blurted out: "What about your majesty?"

Mu Tianbo sighed after hearing this.

"Commander Wang, at this point, Your Majesty is very strict with the Burmese people, and we are no longer able to do anything."

"If we can protect the prince from danger, then the Ming Dynasty will have successors!"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Qilong was shocked.

Mu Tianbo's move was undoubtedly his intention to give up Yongli.

As early as when I first entered Myanmar, it was just in case.

Mu Tianbo, the Duke of Guizhou, Wang Weihua, the Marquis of Huating, and Li Chongshi, the eunuch of the East Palace Dianxi, jointly suggested:

"This area is on the border with Myanmar and has not yet been penetrated deeply."

"If we can send half of the civil and military officers and soldiers into Burma with the general, and half of them lead the prince to Chashan to coordinate the various camps, there will be foreign aid waiting even in Burma."

"Otherwise, if we go deep into Yi Di, the sound consumption inside and outside will be blocked, and we will eventually become trapped."

This request was eventually rejected by Emperor Yongli because the Queen of the Middle Palace, Wang, was unwilling to leave her beloved son and stay away.

In fact, there are many truths here.

When Emperor Yongli entered Myanmar, Mu Tianbo and others took the prince to defect to Li Dingguo.

So what did Emperor Yongli become in Myanmar?

If there was trouble, would Li Dingguo and the others go to great lengths to save themselves if they had the prince in their hands?

Therefore, it was impossible for Emperor Yongli to let the prince leave his side.

But now at this critical moment, Mu Tianbo thought of the prince again.

Although the emperor Yongli is often linked to the Ming Dynasty, nothing is absolute.

Faced with whether to protect Daming or Bao Yongli, Mu Tianbo felt that it was better to protect the prince first and break out of the encirclement to save Daming.

As for Yongli, I, as a minister, have done my best, and I will wait until the prince breaks through to let us have a successor to the Ming Dynasty.

No matter what, it's better than being served in a pot here.

"Your Majesty's blessings reach the sky. He is a true dragon. He has his own dragon energy to protect his body, so there is no hindrance."

"Only by protecting the prince from danger can we save the Ming Dynasty."

"In the future, after the King of Jin assists the Crown Prince to restore the country, we will come to Myanmar to welcome His Majesty back."

Mu Tianbo talked eloquently and continued.

Wang Qilong was stunned when he said this, but he soon figured it out.

The Burmese people guarded Yongli too tightly, and it was impossible to save the emperor from danger.

The only way to save the Ming Dynasty is to seize the opportunity and protect the prince, who is not yet valued by the Burmese people, from danger!

"Your Excellency, the general is willing to risk his life to protect the prince from the siege!" Wang Qilong gritted his teeth.

Mu Tianbo said happily: "Okay! With the participation of the general, we will be able to successfully get rid of the two thieves and protect the prince to meet the King of Jin!" (End of this chapter)
