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

When the New Year came, Li Dingguo gathered his troops and the court's civil and military forces and retreated westward along the mainland.

Emperor Yongli had already run to Chuxiong at this time.

At this point, the overall situation in Yunnan has been decided.

On the third day of the first lunar month in the 16th year of Shunzhi, the Qing army sentry cavalry arrived in Kunming.

Bai Wenxuan did not dare to defend the city and retreated with his troops.

The Qing army occupied Kunming without resistance.

It is worth mentioning that in another time and space, when the Qing army occupied Kunming, Emperor Yongli had already reached Yongchang, almost across the large province of Yunnan.

In this time and space, I have to wait for my family and my mother.

In order to avoid being accused of being unfilial, he had to slow down his escape.

During this period, Sun Guozhu had occupied Yongzhou and fully entered Hunan.

Because the cavalry of the former army appeared on various official roads in Hunan, they destroyed the Qing army's post system.

And because there were a large number of chieftain rebels and Ming army stragglers in Guizhou, the main force of the Qing army entering Yunnan had poor communication with the rear. For a long period of time, they did not know that their rear had been captured by Sun Guozhu.

Wang Shangli seized the opportunity and sent another letter to Duny and others.

It is said that they were sent by Lord Sun to assist the Qing Dynasty in wiping out the Nanming Dynasty.

Doni saw that Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui had contributed a lot, and Sun Kewang really sent troops to Yunnan again.

Feeling that the overall situation was decided, he was overjoyed and led the main force of the Qing army to pursue them quickly to win the first prize in annihilating Nanming.

Wu Sangui was not to be outdone. In order to ensure that he could control Yunnan forever, he also led his troops to advance rapidly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Shangli led his troops, relocated the people, and brought a large number of resources southward, preparing to reintegrate the veterans of Xiying in Guangdong.

At the same time, the situation in Guangdong, under Sun Kewang's plan, set off a storm.

"What! Sun Kewang rebelled!"

In Shaozhou City, the Shaozhou General Soldier looked at his staff in shock.

"Commander, Sun Kewang has never shaved his head. How can this be a rebellion? He conspired with Li Dingguo, Hong Chengchou, and Wu Sangui!"

The staff was a little excited and said: "Li Dingguo's troops left Yunnan, Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui returned to Guizhou, and Sun Kewang went north to Huguang, cutting off Doni's last chance of survival!"

The commander-in-chief of Shaozhou quickly picked up the letter and started reading it.

"Commander, what a God-given opportunity! Now it seems that the imperial court is about to collapse. We are just in time to respond to the king and kill Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao to avoid future troubles forever! Then we will assist the king to destroy the Tatars!" the staff said quickly.

"This..." Shaozhou Commander-in-Chief was still hesitant.

"Commander, if you don't respond to the king, even the brothers under you won't be willing to do it either!"

As soon as these words came out, the commander-in-chief of Shaozhou suddenly realized.

For more than a year, the Green Camp soldiers followed Sun Kewang to enjoy the hot food and drink. They received silver rewards, military pay was paid, and even the land was divided.

With this attitude, if he doesn't respond to Sun Kewang and insists on following our Qing Dynasty.

The Green Camp soldiers are living a good life. It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

If the green battalion soldiers are allowed to live the same life as before, thousands of green battalions in Shaozhou will have to strip him of his skin!

"Yes, yes! The king has been so kind to us. I still have many properties in Guangzhou. We can't forget the king's kindness."

"The commander-in-chief is right!" the staff agreed.

"Send the order and summon all the officers in the city above the general level to come to the house!"

For a time, Sun Kewang's anti-Qing storm swept the entire Guangdong.

After learning that Sun Kewang had raised his troops to march north, Li Dingguo left Yunnan in the east, and Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui returned to Guizhou.

The green battalion soldiers surged up and responded one after another.

Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao also reacted quickly after learning the news.

On the one hand, he wrote to the generals of the Green Camp in an attempt to win over people's hearts. On the other hand, he led the elite soldiers of the two vassals out of Guangzhou City in an attempt to regain nearby prefectures and counties.

"General Bing Wu, please don't forget the kindness of the prince." In Raoping City, Shang Kexi's envoy persuaded.

"This..." Wu Liuqi, the commander-in-chief of Chaozhou, fell into deep thought.

It was when Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao came to the throne that the Qing Dynasty appointed Wu Liuqi as the general commander of Chaozhou in Xiezhen, commanding a thousand elite troops to be stationed in Raoping.

This kind of kindness is not small!
However, at this moment, the lobby suddenly became noisy.

"What's going on!" Wu Liuqi sat up in shock.

I saw a large number of officers and hundreds of elite soldiers arriving in front of Wu Liuqi.

"You are going to rebel!" Wu Liuqi looked at his brothers and shouted angrily.

I saw the Chaozhou deputy general striding forward and stabbing Shang Kexi's envoy.

In an instant, blood spattered five steps, and Wu Liuqi looked shocked.

"Commander!" The lieutenant general who had followed Wu Liuqi for many years knelt on one knee holding a blood-stained saber.

At the same time, a large number of Green Camp people fell to their knees.

"You guys, what are you doing..."

"Commander! Brothers, it's hard! In the past, the Manchu Banners bullied us, the Mongols bullied us, and even the Han Banners bullied us!"

The deputy general burst into tears and said: "What a hero, the commander-in-chief. Although he is the commander-in-chief of a town, he is not the general of Guangzhou!"

"Now that the king is here, my brothers in Chaozhou have enough food and clothing, no shortage of salary and money, and they have also been given land! The brothers are finally living a good life!"

"These soldiers are just looking for a way to survive. In the past, the Tatars did not treat their brothers as human beings, but the leader of the country treats his brothers as human beings!"

"My subordinates know that Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao are grateful to the commander-in-chief, but the commander-in-chief also has to lead the brothers to a good future, right?"

"What kind of life did the brothers live before? What kind of life are they living now?"

"Only the king is our true parent in Green Camp!"

"My subordinates knew that the commander-in-chief was not easy to attack, so they killed the envoy of Shang Kexi on behalf of the commander-in-chief."

"If the marshal still has brothers in his heart, he will lead his brothers to raise the flag of righteousness and respond to the Lord!"

"If the commander-in-chief only cares about his own future and insists on defecting, it would be gratifying. Then don't blame the brothers for taking advantage of the commander-in-chief to help his future!"

As soon as these words came out, Wu Liuqi was speechless.

"Commander, are you willing to lead your brothers to a bright future?" A general said, with a clear picture.

"Pass... pass the order, and the whole city will cut off their braids in response to the king." Wu Liuqi said tremblingly.

"Commander is wise, please forgive me for being so abrupt!" The deputy general and others were extremely excited.

The whole hall was filled with cheers.

Wu Liuqi looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't laugh or cry. How could he dare to punish him now?

"You and I have been brothers for many years, why do you need to do this! I've already wanted to cut off this braid!"

"The order is passed down, and the soldiers and horses are ready. If anyone in Chaozhou Mansion does not obey the order of the king, we will kill him!"

After overcoming the psychological hurdle, Wu Liuqi's entire mental outlook changed, and he was ready to try his luck again under Sun Kewang!

When the New Year comes, the entire Guangdong is filled with righteous flags.

The major forces in Guangdong, who were tied together by Sun Kewang and had a bloody feud with Pingnan and Jingnan vassals, all raised armies in response to Sun Kewang's call.

For a time, Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao struggled hard in this vast ocean.

"Send troops to capture Foshan first, and then capture Xinhui!"

On the outskirts of Guangzhou, Shang Kexi personally led [-] elite soldiers towards Foshan, trying to break the cage prepared for him by Sun Guozhu and escape from Guangzhou.Soon, the Qing army arrived in Foshan, and in the city, the [-] Qianqian troops and [-] Green Camp troops stationed in the city were also ready.

"You sons of Foshan, kill the Tatars well!"

"One head, reward 50 taels of silver!"

In Foshan City, the originally enlightened gentry and the newly migrated gentry shouted for the defenders.

A large amount of gold and silver was also brought in to boost the fighting spirit of the defenders.

Needless to say, there is no need to say more about the gentry who originally had friendly relations with the Guangdong Rebels.

In the Foshan area, the newly arrived gentry who had divided up the land and industries of Pingnan and Jingnan vassals had no way out.

This damn thing divided up other people's land and property.

After the city is broken, will Shang Kexi let them go?
Even if Shang Kexi lets them go, the people under the two vassals will spare them for occupying the land and industry.

What's more, how can such a huge family fortune be handed over to others?

So now, the gentry has no way out!

Only by fighting hard can you save your life and property!
"Defend the home and the country! Defend the home and the country!"

On the walls of Foshan City, the green campers who had paid their wages and were allocated land were refreshed, and many even had a look of determination on their faces.

"Fire!" Shang Ke happily ordered.

The Qing army's artillery suddenly opened fire.

On the Foshan city wall, a large number of artillery fire suddenly returned.

There are many firearms in Shangkexibu, and Foshan is the origin of firearms.

In the fierce artillery battle, both sides fought evenly.

Soon the bombardment ended, and Shang Kexi's troops began to attack the city.

"Brothers, the Tatars are coming to steal our land, our money, our grain, and our women!"

"Don't be afraid, the king will reward you with 60 taels of silver if you die in battle!"

"My wife, children, and children will receive a monthly favor!"

"My son can go to the Imperial Academy to study, become the Imperial disciple, and bring glory to our ancestors!"

"When you die, you have a good coffin and can be buried in the cemetery! Officials have to come to offer sacrifices every year! Even the king of the country comes in person!"

"Brother, hit me!"

With the blessing of many factors, the green battalions in Foshan became more and more fierce. Not to mention fighting against the Qing army, they were not afraid even in hand-to-hand combat.

Under the fierce counterattack of the Green Camp soldiers, a large number of Qing troops died at the foot of Foshan City.

"Your Majesty, we can't fight any more. With so little effort, hundreds of brothers will never come back. If we continue to fight, I'm afraid we won't be able to keep our roots!"

Under the banner outside the city, a large number of cronies were wailing and trying to persuade Shang Kexi to retreat.

"Foshan, a mere town, can actually block my ten thousand army!" Shang Ke was so happy that his eyes were wild with desire and his teeth were about to crack.

Li Chengdong captured the entire Guangdong with five thousand soldiers and horses.

I think back then he and Geng Jimao took down the entire Guangdong with only 2 troops.

Now in front of a county town, his [-] elite troops were beaten like this!

How shameful does this make him!

"My lord, please withdraw. The thieves have many weapons and are not afraid of death. If they continue to fight, our brothers will die in vain!"

Shang Kexi raised his binoculars and looked at the green camp soldiers on the city wall who looked determined. Their scalps were numb and their hands and feet were cold.

"What kind of ecstasy soup did Sun Kewang pour into these Green Camp wastes! To make them do this!"

Shang Kexi clenched his fists. The green camp in Foshan was not the green camp in Xinhui and Zhaoqing.

Foshan has been unable to afford war for many years, so the green campers here are extremely stretched out.

It has only been a year now, and Shang Kexi never expected that the green camp here would become so vigorous.

Suddenly, a burst of gunfire rang out.

The flank of the Qing army was suddenly bombarded by artillery.

"My lord, something bad has happened! The bandits are here!" A general accompanying him said quickly.

Shang Kexi raised his mirror and looked at it, warships appeared in his sight.

The Guangzhou area has a dense water network. After receiving Sun Kewang's order, Wang Xing and others immediately led a large number of naval forces from the Pearl River Estuary to the vicinity of Foshan.

"Your Majesty, let's retreat quickly!" the confidant persuaded again.

"What are you afraid of! Do the local bandits still dare to fight with us?" Shang Kexi sneered.

Wang Xing and other rebels were numerous. During the Battle of Xinhui alone, Li Dingguo had more than [-] bandits under his command.

However, in Shang Kexi's impression, these soldiers and horses were just things that could be destroyed by his own elite soldiers, so there was nothing to worry about.

However, at this moment, a large number of rebels rowed ashore in small boats, preparing to form formations to meet the enemy.

The artillery of the rebel navy has been bombarding the Qing army.

"Armor! My lord, these bandits are all armored soldiers!"

The cronies raised their sights and looked at the rebels who were putting on their armor after landing, and they all took a deep breath.

Looking at this formation, there must be tens of thousands of armored soldiers.

"What!" Shang Kexi opened his mouth wide.

When did people like Wang Xing be able to pull out tens of thousands of armored soldiers?
Little did he know that in the past year or so, the rebels who drank soup with Lord Sun had already changed from what they used to be.

In current Guangdong, the number of armored soldiers in the hands of Wang Xing, Chen Qice, Deng Yao, and Xiao Guolong is probably close to that of Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao.

Sun Guozhu has more than 15 armored soldiers, but the Guangdong Rebel Army still has 5000 people.

After losing thousands of capital, Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao could only afford less than [-] pieces of armor.

"Your Majesty, the local bandits are powerful and our army is facing enemies from both sides. It's better to stay away from the enemy for now." Looking at this formation, Shang Ke's confidants and generals retreated one by one.

Shang Kexi looked at the densely packed warships in front of him and gritted his teeth.

Because the rebel navy was powerful, most of the Green Camp navy turned against them.

In the Guangzhou area, Shang Kexi has actually lost the right to control water.

Under such circumstances, it is no longer possible to capture Foshan.

"Report! Military information in Guangzhou!"

Shang Kexi's expression suddenly changed, he quickly put down the telescope and picked up the intelligence that had just been sent.

"Soldiers and horses from Zhaoqing, Shaozhou, Nanxiong, Huizhou and other places are approaching Guangzhou! There are no less than [-] armored men! Sea pirates are invading! Bombard Guangzhou!" Shang Kexi took a breath.

After Sun Kewang organized and trained the Fourteenth Town Army, there were still more than 1 armored soldiers stationed in the area, most of which were deployed in Guangdong.

After more than a year of improvement among the Green Camp soldiers in Guangdong, the number of armored soldiers has also increased significantly, from thousands to more than 1.

Not even one of Sun Guozhu's main towns was deployed to Guangdong.

The Guangdong region alone can collect [-] armors with its own strength.

In addition, the power to control water has always been in the hands.

Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao have more than 1 remaining capital, and it is extremely difficult to open up the situation!

"Withdraw!" Shang Kexi roared angrily and ordered the Qing troops to retreat. (End of chapter)
