Ming Zuo

Chapter 1529 Entering Tianfu
After separating from Liangyue in northern Shaanxi, Li Guo and Gao Yigong made a detour southward and went to Xi'an to join Li Zicheng.

As a result, the two were still halfway, and Li Zicheng had already been defeated in Tongguan, so he had to withdraw from Shaanxi and go to Henan.

After hearing the news, Li Guo and Gao Yigong speeded up their journey, but encountered Qing army rangers on the way.

After a bloody fight, Gao Yigong died in battle, and Li Guo escaped alone after a disastrous defeat.

As a result, he had no way to go to Henan, so he had to turn to the east of Sichuan and join forces with Hao Yaoqi and others.

Li Guo was worried about Li Zicheng's safety, and kept urging Hao Yaoqi and others to send troops to rescue.

But Hao Yaoqi and others had already lost their fighting spirit after being beaten by the Qing army, so they dared not go there at all.

Not long after, the news of Li Zicheng's defeat and death came, which made Li Guo feel overwhelmed and depressed.

When Li Zicheng was defeated and died, Yuan Zongdi was by his side, so Li Guo only wanted to know the truth.

Yuan Zongdi didn't have any entanglements, after all, he didn't do anything wrong.

"At that time, the Tartars surrounded us from all directions, each of the ministries fought on their own, and no one cared about the others. I was ordered by His Majesty to lead an army to the riverside to find a way out, but I was surrounded by the Tartars, and I couldn't escape. If it wasn’t for the empire’s General Zuo Hua leading the battleships to rescue me, I wouldn’t be able to see me today.”

Li Guo listened carefully and asked, "Weren't you in Elong Town at that time?"

Yuan Zongdi told the truth.

"Elong Town was guarded by Li Jin, and he died at the hands of the Tartars along with His Majesty."

Li Guo finally figured out the cause of Li Zicheng's death, and the entanglement in his heart dissipated.

"How will the Wehrmacht treat me and others?"

Entering the substantive negotiation of surrender, Yuan Zongdi cheered up.

"It is said that His Majesty admires you very much, and His Highness King Wu also praised your benevolence and righteousness. After you come here, you will not worry about your future."

Li Guo glanced at the others.

"What's the honor and disgrace of my life alone? It's just that there are so many brothers, and they must be settled properly."

Yuan Zongdi laughed.

"Even if you, Li Buzhi, can treat you kindly, how can the empire treat others harshly?"

The reason is very simple, and once it is said, everyone immediately puts down their worries.

Yuan Zongdi also told about Li Laiheng's situation, which reassured everyone even more.

Early the next morning, Li Guo led his men out of the cottage and surrendered to the National Defense Forces.

At the same time, Wang Guangxing also ushered in the end.

The National Defense Forces used artillery fire to cover several hills, and then took advantage of the heavy losses of the defenders to rush up.

Even if he didn't use firearms, but just fought hand to hand, Wang Guangxing couldn't stop him.

Seeing that the defeat was decided, Wang Guangxing jumped off the cliff with a feeling of unwillingness, ending the life of Xiongxiong.

Hao Yaoqi watched in horror as the flames of war subsided on Wang Guangxing's side, and the flag of the National Defense Forces was flying alone in the smoke.

He finally understood that the situation was over.

He didn't dare to ask for anything extravagantly, and he readily surrendered to the National Defense Forces.

The one-and-a-half-month-old Kuidong battle has ended successfully, and the National Defense Forces have completely opened the door to enter the Land of Abundance.

On November 11, the National Defense Forces officially entered Chongqing, shaking the entire land of Sichuan and Sichuan.

The enemies before them are Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, Ai Nengqi and others of the Daxi Army.

However, when the National Defense Army approached step by step, Sun Kewang and others were still busy fighting among themselves.

Back when Zhang Xianzhong was here, these few people were fighting each other and were not convinced by each other, and there were many cases of stumbling in private.

Zhang Xianzhong saw it in his eyes, and deliberately didn't care about it, so as to maintain the balance.

But when he died, there was no pressure on these people's heads, and they fell apart immediately.

Sun Kewang felt that as the boss, the other brothers should obey him, so he became more domineering.

But Li Dingguo was quite popular in the army, many people were more willing to follow him, and Ainengqi and Liu Wenxiu also made friends with him.

Seeing that Sun Kewang occupied Chengdu, Li Dingguo and the others led their army southward and stayed near Emei.

The National Defense Forces rushed into Sichuan, which immediately put pressure on both sides.

But the rift between the two parties has already formed, there is no way to sit together and discuss, they can only find a way out.

"Li Dingguo is a rare talent. You can try to recruit him. If Sun Kewang has no connection with the Remnant regime, then resolutely eliminate him."

To deal with the Daxi regime, Zuo Rong's approach is no different from that of the Kuidong Thirteen Clans.

Pull a group, fight a group, divide the enemy in detail, and reduce the difficulty of military operations.

Therefore, the National Defense Forces did not take any action throughout December, but only established a forward base in Chongqing and kept hoarding supplies.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that doing so means that the National Defense Forces will do nothing if they don't move, and they will do their best in one battle.

During this period of time, envoys of the National Defense Forces kept going in and out of Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo's army to discuss peaceful appeasement.

Which is true and false, even the parties are also difficult to distinguish.

At the same time, all parts of Sichuan are always in a state of restlessness.

When those landlords and gentry heard about Huguang's situation, they were afraid of being liquidated by the National Defense Forces, so they packed up their belongings and fled all the way south.

And businessmen from all over the world are talking enthusiastically, connecting with each other, and looking forward to the National Defense Forces.

Some of the brave ones even united together, held armed riots, captured the prefectural and county towns, and sent people to invite the National Defense Forces to settle in.

Sichuan people, who have long been exploited by landlords and gentry and abused by officials and military bandits, are the new force among them.

The goodness of the empire has been spread among the people a long time ago, and the people in Sichuan have long yearned for it.

They had had enough of the hard life, and they hated the Daxi army entrenched near the door of their house.

In this case, the information obtained by the Wehrmacht is extremely detailed.

Even Sun Kewang knew exactly what he ate for every meal.

On December 12th, all logistical preparations were completed, and the No.25 Division also rushed to meet up, so that the Sixth Front Army was finally fully equipped.

With Zuo Rong's order, the National Defense Force's offensive was officially launched.

The Tenth Division swept along both sides of the Yangtze River and liberated southern Sichuan.

The No. 14 division has been going north from Chongqing to capture northern Sichuan. At the same time, it is also responsible for cutting off the connection between the Daxi Army and Liangyue, Shaanxi, and completing the plan of closing the door and beating dogs.

Seven days later, the Tenth Division and Sun Kewang's troops fought for the first time.

As a result, Sun Kewang was shocked by the strong combat effectiveness of the National Defense Forces.

Luzhou, which was stationed by 1 people, resisted for only an hour and a half before being rushed into the city by the National Defense Forces.

General Feng Shuangli was shot twice in the body, unconscious, and fled desperately carried by his personal guards.

The main general ran away, and the soldiers below had no fighting spirit, and they were immediately defeated.

The National Defense Forces were not satisfied with capturing Luzhou, and took advantage of the situation to pursue it.Longchang, Neijiang, Zixian, and Ziyang all went down in one go.

In front is Jian Yang.

After passing Jianyang, Chengdu is no longer in danger.

Sun Kewang already felt the catastrophe.
