The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 670 The Vision of the Southwest of Yongzhen (Subscribe)
When Wei Wu's brothers saw this scene, their morale was greatly boosted.

I can feel the blood boiling in my chest!
This is the difference between going up with me and going up for me!

The battalion commander of his own side personally led the team to rush up, so there was no hesitation for the others.

It goes without saying that a mid-level and low-level officer who dares to fight, dare to fight, and dare to lead a charge on the battlefield will boost the morale of the army.

"Fall!"

"Fall!"

"Fall!"

"..."

The fight on the battlefield is getting more and more intense.

As more and more Ming army elites poured into the battlefield, the defeat of the Guan Ning army gradually became irreversible.

Seeing that there was no hope of crossing the river, more and more Guan Ning soldiers simply knelt down and surrendered.

Wu Sangui finally crossed the river and came to the north bank of the Huaihe River.

He looked back at the chaotic south bank of the Huaihe River, his eyes filled with deep despair.

Watching the Ming army's elite cavalry charge back and forth in their own formation, the feeling of powerlessness deeply tortured Wu Sangui's heart.

That's horrible!
In the battle of Huguang, Guan Ning's army lost so badly!
Almost as soon as the two sides came into contact, Guan Ning's army was defeated and retreated, and then a series of defeats followed.

From the beginning of the retreat after the defeat to the retreat of the Guanning Army to the front line of the Huaihe River, the Ming army was chasing and killing the defeated soldiers of the Guanning Army.

In the process, the number of casualties of the Guanning Army continued to rise.

There were screams and howls on the battlefield one after another.

The Ming army began to gather prisoners of war!

A large number of Guanning soldiers were gathered up, tied into a string with ropes, and were escorted to kneel on the bank of the Huaihe River.

Some of the seriously wounded were selected and killed on the spot.

For the wounded of the Guan Ning Army, if they were only slightly injured, Daming would provide certain medical treatment.

But whether you can survive is actually a matter of fate!
However, the seriously injured will not be treated like this.

The fundamental reason is that the seriously wounded are not easy to save, and the medical resources of the Ming army are limited, and there may not be enough to treat their own people. Of course, they will not be wasted on the seriously wounded of the Guanning Army.

It is actually a kind of kindness to make up for the seriously injured and let them be relieved!
He Wenxiu stood on the bank of the Huaihe River, looking at the wide Huaihe River in front of him, his eyes were full of exhaustion.

Almost half a year has passed since the Western Expedition started.

From Huangzhou, to Wuchang, and then to the decisive battle in Huguang to decide the winner, and finally to the bank of the Huaihe River, where the battered and fled Guanning Army...

He Wenxiu spent almost the whole time on the front line of the battlefield commanding the army and presiding over the meetings of the staff group. It goes without saying that he was tired.

Now the battle situation finally came to an end. The main force of Guanning Army was severely damaged to the south of the Huaihe River, and Wu Sangui only led the remnants to retreat to the north of the Huaihe River.

The goal set by the imperial court before the battle, to severely damage the Guanning Army's troops, was successfully accomplished.

The next thing is to mobilize troops to march south and take Hunan.

On the one hand, continue to march westward along the Yangtze River, regain Sichuan and Shu, and attack Yunnan and Guizhou provinces together with Li Dingguo.

It sounds like there are still many battles to be fought, but in the case of the main force of the Guanning Army being severely injured, these are actually not considered tough battles.

To put it bluntly, there is a high probability that it depends on the spread!
Could it be that the main force of the Guanning Army has been severely damaged, and do the local state capitals still have the guts to resist Ming's attack?

He Wenxiu took a deep breath, and then spoke.

"Pass down the order and report victory in the direction of Nanjing again!"

"..."

……

At the same time, outside Kunming!
Looking at the dilapidated Kunming City in the distance, Li Dingguo waved his hand and ordered.

"Enter the city!"

After several days of fierce offensive and defensive battles, Kunming was finally captured.

The Ming army entered the city of Kunming in a mighty manner, and began to clear up the rebels and rectify the order in Kunming city.

Li Dingguo looked around for a week and said.

"Pay attention to maintaining military discipline!"

"Tell my brothers, Kunming is my land of Ming Dynasty, and I must not be as presumptuous as I was in Myanmar."

"Otherwise, this king has no way to explain to His Majesty!"

It can be said that everyone knows how much Zhu Hongyu values ​​military discipline and how much he hates massacres.

The ban on massacres is not just talk!

As the entire south is about to be pacified, Li Dingguo's troops will be integrated into the Ming court, which is just around the corner.

Li Dingguo didn't want Zhu Hongyu to be left with a bad impression because of military discipline issues at this time.

Zhu Tingyun rode his horse to Li Dingguo's side, and couldn't help asking.

"Your Majesty, after the counterattack against Yunnan and Guizhou is over, His Majesty will probably summon you back to Beijing in Dading in the south. I don't know what you think?"

The connection between Zhu Hongyu and Li Dingguo is actually not particularly close.

On the side of the Ming court, apart from sending some aid to Li Dingguo's troops from time to time, Daming hardly interfered with Li Dingguo's department's internal affairs, military affairs and many other matters.

In other words, even if it is said that Li Dingguo's subordinate is a semi-independent warlord, that is not an exaggeration.

Even to a certain extent, the degree of independence of Li Dingguo's department is higher than that of the original Zheng Chenggong's department.

After such a long time, Li Dingguo's subordinates have long been used to the feeling of freedom that no one is in charge of.

That's why Zhu Tingyun asked this question.

He didn't want to encourage Li Dingguo to rebel against the Ming Dynasty, but he just wanted Li Dingguo to maintain a certain degree of autonomy, follow the old practice of Duke Mu's Mansion of the State of Qian, and let his soldiers and horses stay in the southwest forever.

Of course, he didn't dare to think about places in China such as Yunnan and Guizhou.

But in Shan State and other places in Myanmar, he still has some ideas.

Think it might be possible!

On the side, Bai Wenxuan, Liu Tichun and others also turned their attention to Li Dingguo after hearing the words.

I want to know what choice Li Dinghui will make.

After Li Dingguo heard the words, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

After pondering for a while, he spoke.

"If His Majesty calls, then I will return to Beijing!"

"Other than that, is there any other choice?"

Li Dingguo still has some understanding of the combat effectiveness of the current recovery army.

Li Dingguo thought he was no match for the Ming Dynasty's Restoration Army, and he dared not disobey the order.

This is why in troubled times, the man with the strongest soldiers and horses is the emperor!

In troubled times, only those with strong soldiers and horses will be listened to!

Only some people dare not take it seriously!
In troubled times, military power is above everything else!
Seeing this, Habai couldn't help showing a worried look on his face, and asked.

"Your Majesty, I used to be a man from the Zhenglan Banner of Manchuria, and now I am serving in Ming Dynasty, will His Majesty accept me?"

Hearing this, Li Dingguo nodded without any hesitation.

"That's natural. The last time this king asked the court to reward you, didn't His Majesty already decree to agree?"

"If His Majesty is unwilling to accept you, how can he agree to give you a reward?"

"Furthermore, the Ming court has never said that it does not use Shaomin."

"That Mongol Wutuo, after he surrendered to Ming Dynasty in the decisive battle in the south of the Yangtze River, isn't he still leading the army?"

Hearing this, Habai nodded slightly and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, a group of messengers came running from a distance, holding a scarlet battle report high in their hands, shouting loudly along the way.

"Great victory! Great victory!"

"Huguang is victorious, Daming won the Huguang decisive battle, the main force of Guanning Army suffered heavy losses, Wu Sangui was defeated and retreated to the north..."
