Chapter 294 King Lin lost his mind
Guangxi, Wuzhou.

"He Changyun, this traitor and traitor, betrayed Gu... betrayed Gu!" Lin Jun was furious in the Wuzhou Palace.

Said to be a temporary palace, it was actually the original magistrate's office.

Guilin Mansion was destroyed in the previous bloody battle, so Guilin was neither suitable nor able to serve as King Lin's temporary palace.

Fortunately, Wuzhou is adjacent to Zhaoqing, and the city is located on the main trunk of the Xijiang River. The water network and transportation are convenient, and it has not suffered excessive damage.

"Your Majesty calm down!"

Su Wenze took the opportunity to hand over his hand and said: "Then the thief had criticized the king a lot when he became king, and repeatedly punished the king's cronies in Guangdong and eliminated dissidents. Now he has voted for the Ming Lord, which is expected. The king must not do it for Such Xiaoxiao is so rebellious that he is very angry."

This is deliberately giving Lin Jun eye drops!

However, except for the fact that He Changyun did offend Lin Jun when he became king, later He Changyun stayed in Guangdong and severely punished the veterans of Lin Jun's rebellion, but they all had Lin Jun's approval.

But now, in line with the news from Guangdong, all the prefectures in eastern Guangdong and Leizhou fell into the hands of the Ming army in just one month.

The city of Guangzhou was even offered to the Ming army by He Changyun.

This made Lin Jun feel that he had been deceived, and even the blame that the various governments in eastern Guangdong had placed on him was forced on He Changyun.

And the more he thought about it, the angrier Lin Jun became.

"Why are you so ruthless... I have treated him so favorably in vain. I must kill him!"

Lin Jun roared hysterically: "The order from Gu is to have the three armies assemble quickly. Gu is going to lead the army back to Guangdong and fight to the death with the man named Zhu! Fight to the death!!"

Fight back to Guangdong and fight to the death?

Su Wenze was instantly shocked by this decision and quickly advised: "Your Majesty, think again! Our army's battle in Guangxi is at a critical moment. If we send the army to Guangdong at this time, not only the overall situation of Guangxi may be wasted. What if Guangdong... …”

The following words were not spoken, but it was obvious to all the civil servants and generals present.

Chaozhou, Huizhou, Shaozhou, Guangzhou, and Leizhou have all fallen into the hands of the Ming army. Only Zhaoqing, Luoding, Gaozhou, and Lianzhou (Beihai) remain in Guangdong.

Among them, Lianzhou only belongs to Guangdong in the sense of administrative divisions. From a geographical perspective, Lianzhou should belong to Guangxi, and it was indeed assigned to Guangxi in later generations.

In other words, only Zhaoqing, Gaozhou and Luoding remain in Guangdong, and Luoding is still Zhili Prefecture.

Moreover, judging from the speed of the Ming army's offensive in the military reports sent back, Zhaoqing Mansion is probably in danger.

To put it bluntly, returning to Guangdong at this time is just a send-off.

The best strategy at the moment is to abandon his hometown in Guangdong and open up Qingyuan and Sien in one go.

The remaining three prefectures of Taiping, Zhen'an, and Sicheng are all chieftain territories, and they only need to promise to retain the power of local chieftains.Not to mention that it can be determined by passing the message, it won't be too difficult.

As long as we capture Guangxi and take advantage of the mountains, we may not be able to recreate the Yelang Kingdom.

Well, just like Wu Sangui's Great Zhou.

But Lin Jun had lost his mind with anger and seemed unable to listen to any advice. He scolded Su Wenze: "Guangdong is almost gone, so what's the use of attacking Guangxi? You guys kept telling me about Guangxi in the first place. It's easy to fight. As long as Guangxi is captured, Gu will have a chance to take over the country. But now, the traitor He Changyun has betrayed Gu, and you have advised Gu not to return to the army. Is it possible that you also want to join that man named Zhu? "

At the end of his words, Lin Jun's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Su Wenze was keenly aware of the crisis. He immediately knelt down and said in a tearful tone: "Your Majesty Mingjian, the ministers and the king have always been loyal! Why betray the king? The ministers also want to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin! "

As Su Wenze spoke, he knelt on the ground, as if he was admonishing a loyal minister.

Lin Jun was just speaking out of anger, but now seeing Su Wenze acting like this, he pondered for a moment and then scolded: "It's best like this, get up first!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your generosity!"

Su Wenze stood up tremblingly. He was relieved and at the same time frightened, and he didn't dare to say another word.

Lin Jun glanced at the generals in the hall: "Here comes someone!"

"The end is here!"

Seeing that Lin Jun's mood seemed stable, the generals hurriedly stepped forward.

Lin Jun said: "Immediately send the order to get troops and horses ready for me, and prepare the warship. I want to fight in person!"

"Obey the order!" the generals responded.

Lin Jun then looked at Su Wenze and the civil servants behind him, and said: "Before the army sets out, a supply of food and grass must be raised. If the army is short of [-]% of food and grass, you all should come to see us!"

"I will obey your orders!"

Su Wenze quickly led everyone to accept the order.

Well, take the order.Lin Jun, the King of Dayue, seems to be using imperial regulations.

When Su Wenze came out of the palace, his back was already wet with sweat.

Those pseudo-Vietnamese civil servants who usually gathered around Su Wenze to fawn over him were all in a hurry at this moment.

Many of these people were civilian officials like Su Wenze who came from Guangdong with the army.Their families are all in Guangdong, or even in the city of Guangzhou.

The world of Dai Viet has changed!

Su Wenze raised his head and stared at the sky. For the first time, he felt that his future was uncertain.

He stood there for a moment, then hurriedly left, heading to his office to raise rations for the army.

As Lin Jun's order was issued, all the puppet and Vietnamese armies in Guangxi began to quickly gather in the direction of Wuzhou.

It was the same as what Su Wenze was worried about, even more serious.

Before Lin Jun's army had finished gathering, the Guangxi Qing army launched a counterattack.

Not only did the Qing army in Guangxi seize the opportunity and launch an attack, but even the oppressed people in the puppet prefectures and counties in Guangxi who had no army to suppress them also started to rebel.

The prefects and county magistrates appointed by King Lin had no time to escape and were killed one after another by the angry people.

By the time Lin Jun got the news, Nanning Prefecture had fallen, and the remaining Qingyuan and Sien Prefectures had also been recaptured by the Qing army.

Nanning Prefecture, which was defeated by the people's rebellion, soon clashed with the Qing army in Guangxi. The reason was that the people of Nanning hated King Lin and did not trust the officers and soldiers.

It is right to distrust. After the Qing army regained Qingyuan and Si'en mansions, their true colors were quickly revealed.

No, we can’t call it true, because the Qing army has never become “better” at all.

First, they were harmed by King Lin's rogue army. Finally, the officers and soldiers came, but they were about the same as King Lin, or even worse.

The people of the two mansions who couldn't bear it also rebelled, and the entire western Guangxi became a mess.

However, this has little to do with Lin Jun.

Now he is like a gambler who is eager to lose.

A big war is coming!
……

Guangzhou.

Thanks to the defection of He Changyun, the puppet Vietnamese right-hand minister, even the detailed operations in the city did not have time to take effect.

The Ming army's losses were even minimal.

He Changyunhui's surrender was not a temporary move.

As early as when King Lin sent He Changyun to Nanjing to pay a pilgrimage to Emperor Zhu, the Jin Yiwei at that time had secret contact with him.

Although he failed to develop it into a masterpiece of Jinyiwei, it also planted a nail in his heart.

Today it is today.

First, King Lin was unable to move forward in Guangxi, and had to spare Guangdong's elite troops, leaving Guangdong's troops empty.

Subsequently, the Ming army seized the opportunity to quickly march into Guangdong.In just one month, the entire eastern Guangdong was overwhelmed by the Ming army.

Even a fool can see that Lin Jun is doomed.

Although we still have Guangxi in hand, let alone the entire territory of Guangxi.Even if the whole of Guangxi is in hand, plus Guangdong, the two Guangxi combined may not be able to defeat Emperor Zhu.

Good birds choose wood to perch.

Moreover, after working under Lin Jun for almost two years, He Changyun's wife and children have been released long ago, so he has no worries anymore and naturally has no worries when surrendering.

The Ming army captured the city of Guangzhou without spending a single soldier, and was supplemented by food and grass from the Guangzhou treasury. There was no shortage of military rations.

Just when Lin Jun was gathering troops and horses, he was preparing to march eastward via the Xijiang Waterway and fight the Guangdong Ming Army for a decisive battle.

Xu Jin moved faster, leading his army from Guangzhou and raiding Zhaoqing along the Xijiang waterway.

The prefect and generals of Zhaoqing are all Lin Jun's cronies, and as a transit point for logistics and food routes, there are many elite soldiers of the Puppet Vietnamese Lao Battalion stationed here.

The news that Guangzhou was presented to the city by He Changyun was passed back by Zhaoqing Mansion.

However, Xu Jin's army had just arrived at Zhaoqing City, and Zhaoqing Mansion surrendered at the speed of light.
