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

Chapter 356 Forced Crossing of the Yellow River

"I, Wu Sangui, really can't compete with Sun Kewang now."

"In this case, rather than letting your sacrifices be in vain, it would be better for the whole world to be unified."

"It's good to have fewer killings." Wu Sangui said with a long sigh.

As the King of Zhou, he actually still has a little bit of humanity in his heart.

For our Ming Dynasty, Wu Sangui was actually pretty good.

After all, although the annual salary of six million is a lot, it is deducted layer by layer.

There are not many that can be transported to western Liaoning.

Wu Sangui shared the remaining portion with the others.

The most you can get is a few hundred thousand a year.

With just these hundreds of thousands, Wu Sangui was able to raise 3,000 servants and 20,000 elites.

And obtained it many times in battles with the Qing army.

For our Ming Dynasty, Wu Sangui is already interesting enough.

If only all the powerful people in the Ming Dynasty could be like him.

As long as there are ten Wu Sangui, one Wu Sangui has the power of two flags.

Our Qing Dynasty immediately went cold.

Wu Sangui also had a sense of recognition towards the common people.

In his early years, he was the most effective in fighting the Qing army, benefiting the people at the top and the dawn at the bottom.

In middle age, he defected to the Manchus and became the biggest traitor, indirectly killing countless people.

However, his troops were unique among the Qing army and did not massacre people on a large scale.

He was even scolded by Dorgon.

In his later years, Wu Sangui rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and when he attacked Jingzhou, he preferred to be defeated and lose the hope of going north.

He did not dig up the tens of thousands of embankments in Jingzhou, flooding Jingzhou and killing the people.

It can only be said that he is a truly evil person, but his evil is not too pure.

It's just because of his extremely high ability and status that his memory becomes extremely profound.

This is what people like Sun Kewang and Wu Sangui who can influence the general trend of the world must bear.

Now facing the powerful Sun Kewang, Wu Sangui was no longer willing to continue fighting for the world and wanted to retreat bravely.

What he said was not false, but contained a lot of truth.

As soon as this statement came out, the old people in Xiying looked at each other in disbelief.

"So? Don't you believe what I said?" Wu Sangui said slowly.

"No, no, no, what the prince said is definitely true." Ma Bao and others said quickly.

"Haha, I am speaking to you from the bottom of my heart. If what I say is false, I will definitely die badly." Wu Sangui said with a smile.

Ma Bao and others were surprised again when they heard this.

"Everyone, Sun Kewang is ready to dominate the world. If I forcefully resist, it will go against the will of heaven and the people."

"But do you know?"

"The king has sent Guo Zhuangtu to Beijing to discuss with Sun Kewang."

"Do you know what can be achieved if two hundred thousand elite soldiers work together in five provinces?" Wu Sangui sighed.

"With such a large army and such a common ground, the prince will definitely be able to control the same place forever and enjoy wealth and wealth!" Ma Bao and others said quickly.

"Yongzhen is a province? Enjoy peace and prosperity?"

Wu Sangui smiled bitterly and said, "No, no, no, even Gu Xian Muying can't do it."

"Gu Xian wanted to control Shaanxi and Gansu forever, but Sun Kewang refused."

"Later, he wanted to permanently control Yunnan and Guizhou, but Sun Kewang still refused."

"It would be best if Sun Kewang still refuses to agree even to the province of Yunnan and Sichuan."

"He said that if the king wants Yongzhen, then he should fight Assam and Kazakhstan."

"You generals may not know where Assam and Kazakhstan are."

"One of these two places is in Tianzhu, west of Myanmar, and the other is on the grassland outside the Western Region."

"You said that even if I don't want to fight anymore, can I agree to such conditions?"

"What!" Ma Bao and others were all surprised.

Their new master surrendered under such conditions, and in their opinion, it was okay to control Shaanxi and Gansu forever.

Even if it fails, Yongzhen Yungui should allow it.

But Sun Kewang was not even willing to give it to Yunnan or even Sichuan.

Such a condition would be compared with others. If they were Wu Sangui, they wouldn't be able to agree!

"Generals, this is why I ask you to save me."

"Sun Kewang wants to force this king to death by proposing such conditions!"

"If our army cannot defeat the Dashun Army in this battle, Sun Kewang will be afraid."

"Sun Kewang will definitely not let me go!" Wu Sangui said bitterly.

Ma Bao and others were silent when they saw this.

In their opinion, the conditions proposed by Sun Kewang were not sincere. If Wu Sangui surrendered, it would probably be a dead end.

Because the conditions put forward by the old owner were clearly intended to force the new owner to death.

"Your Majesty wants us to fight to the death so that we can defeat Li Laiheng, show our army's majesty, and force the king to make concessions?" Gao Cheng'en was the first to speak and asked.

"That's right, now whether my king can survive depends on the generals."

Wu Sangui said slowly: "Furthermore, gentlemen, I am the same as you. You are fighting this battle not only for me, but also for yourselves."

"For ourselves?" All the old Xiying generals were confused and a little unclear.

"You are all the people who betrayed Sun Kewang in the past. Such things are always out of character." Wu Sangui spoke again, expressing the pain in the hearts of these old people from Xiying.

As soon as these words came out, Ma Bao and others' faces instantly turned red.

Betraying Sun Kewang and welcoming Li Dingguo was a thorn in their hearts.

In the past, I don't know how many great masters went to war with their own kings for the sake of the emperor and the king of Jin.

But within a few months, except for Bai Wenxuan and a few others.

Everyone else's intestines turned green.

The prowess of the Dukes of Nanming Gungun made them miss their old masters extremely.

Wu Sangui's words were tantamount to opening the scars in their hearts.

"I know that Sun Kewang will be generous to you old people from Xiying."

"In the past, Bai Wenxuan rebelled and surrendered again, surrendered and rebelled again, and Sun Kewang let him go."

"But you are the traitors after all. Sun Ke hopes to let you go now."

"Can you ensure that in the future, when he becomes old and faint, his mentality will not change drastically and he will settle old scores?"

"Don't you hear about the pre-Qin king?" Wu Sangui continued to speak.

Ma Bao and others were suddenly shocked when they heard this, and they all became a little uneasy.

Indeed, Sun Kewang was generous, and they, the old Xiying people who only feared once, would not be liquidated if they returned again.

But not liquidating it now doesn’t mean it won’t be liquidated in the future.

What's more, there is the old story of Zhang Xianzhong, the pre-Qin king.

After the Eight Kings entered Sichuan, their temperament changed drastically and they became moody.

If Sun Kewang were old, he might not be able to remember his old grudges as soon as he slapped his head.

"What's more, if Sun Ke is willing to let you go, what about Zhang Sheng, Zhang Hu and others under his command?"

"Even under Sun Kewang's restrictions, they will not endanger your lives."

"But you are all heroes, are you willing to be despised and laughed at by others from now on?" Wu Sangui then spoke and gave another bloody example.

Don’t talk about later, just now.

How could Zhang Sheng, Zhang Hu and others not grit their teeth at Ma Bao and others. If Sun Kewang hadn't been far-sighted, they would have died at the hands of these traitors.

With such a big hatred, Sun Kewang would even be willing to let them go.

Are Zhang Sheng and the others willing to give up?

As soon as these words came out, Gao Chengen and others were fine.

However, the expressions of Ma Bao, Ma Weixing and others changed.

Gao Chengen and other old Shu feudal lords were in opposition to Sun Kewang, which can also be explained by the fact that each is his own master.

But these people were among Sun Kewang's army, and they were not Liu Wenxiu's direct descendants.

Their master during the Battle of Jiaoshui was Sun Kewang!

Under such circumstances, how could Zhang Sheng and others tolerate them!

Even if it's not easy to kill, they will definitely look down on and humiliate you in every possible way!
Ma Bao and the others are also heroes, how can they endure this easily.

Wu Sangui felt happy when he saw the performance of all the old people from Xiying.

In the end, he said: "If this king can control this place forever and retain his power."

"Then it can also serve as a barrier for the generals and for their party members."

As soon as these words came out, all the old people from Xiying instantly turned away from the clouds and saw the moon, and their hearts were greatly moved.

Why couldn't the Qing Dynasty remove Wu Sangui's vassal state?
In addition to Wu Sangui's personal influence.

That's because Wu Sangui is the shelter of many people.

The reason why people like Ma Bao and others surrendered from the Western Camp were not liquidated by the Qing Dynasty.

The reason why the green camp generals like Zheng Jiaolin were able to behave erratically and act in a domineering manner.

It was Wu Sangui, the towering tree, that was protecting them and shielding them from wind and rain!

If this were not the case, how could we, the Qing Dynasty, allow Ma Bao and Zheng Jiaolin to feel at ease?
Historically, it was only through Wu Sangui that people like Ma Bao could live a prosperous life.

Therefore, when the Manchu and Qing Dynasties withdrew their feudal vassals, civil and military officials of all sizes throughout the southwest became excited and responded to Wu Sangui one after another.

And now Wu Sangui will also use this trick to win over Ma Bao and others.

"If the prince can maintain his power and continue to protect us, it will naturally be our blessing." Qi Sansheng was the first to speak, expressing his attitude.

Now they, the old people of Xiying, will face an unknown future.

Therefore, Qi Sansheng will definitely not give up if he can leave an extra escape route.

If Wu Sangui could stay in one place forever and protect them from wind and rain.

So even if Zhang Sheng and others want to attack traitors like them.

Qi Sansheng and others would have a place to go!

Otherwise, Wu Sangui would fall.

Once Sun Kewang and his men are liquidated, they won't even be able to run away.

In order to avoid the liquidation of the Qing Dynasty, Xiying surrendered to Wu Sangui.

Now in order to avoid Sun Kewang's liquidation, he was naturally willing to help Wu Sangui.

"Your Majesty is our towering tree. If the tree falls, who can protect us from the sun?" Gao Qilong raised his arms and shouted, "Brothers, protecting Your Majesty is to protect ourselves."

"First help the prince defeat Li Laiheng, and then have a good discussion with the king."

"This land is a seal for the prince and a way out for us!"

"That's right, I, Ma Weixing, am willing to be a pioneer, forcefully cross the Yellow River, defeat the intruders, and ask for a title for the prince!" Ma Weixing said plausibly.

It's not easy for them like Xiying to surrender.

In history, the motherland fell and the world was hopeless.

They had to follow Wu Sangui closely to protect themselves.

Now although the Manchu Qing Dynasty has been destroyed, they cannot easily defeat Sun Kewang's line of kings.

So I had to follow Wu Sangui again.

Give it the value of united front and create a way out for yourself.

"Hahaha, I swear here, if I can rule this place forever."

"Even if it means risking my life and property, I will do my best to protect you when you are in trouble!"

Wu Sangui burst into tears and swore.

"Your Majesty's words are serious. We have been greatly favored by Your Majesty, and we should repay him with death!" Ma Bao said immediately.

"Yes, I, Qi Sansheng, followed the prince all the way from Yunnan to here, and finally achieved the result of annihilating the Tatars!"

"If the prince had not understood the righteousness and raised troops to resist the Qing Dynasty in Yunnan, I, Qi Sansheng, would have died in the rain forest of Yunnan."

"So my life was given by the prince, and I should fight to the death for the prince to repay my great kindness!" Qi Sansheng also spoke, his voice shaking the heavens.

Ma Bao, Qi Sansheng and others are not ungrateful people.

But the very irony is that historically they have remembered Wu Sangui's grace.

But in Jiao Shui, he forgot Sun Kewang's old kindness.

Many Xiying soldiers were like this, and they were able to survive until the San Francisco Rebellion.

Almost all died in bloody battles.

Even Ma Weixing, who was transferred to Fujian, died fighting against the Qing Dynasty during the second restoration of the country.

Perhaps they were grateful to Wu Sangui for his kindness after experiencing Nan Ming's discrimination.

But these Xiying soldiers personally drove their old master who had supported them for so many years to a dead end.

"Okay, okay, I, Wu Sangui, have enough soldiers and brothers like you for this lifetime!"

Wu Sangui cried with joy and said: "Send the order, disperse the entire army, build ships, and attack across the board!"

"For me, Wu Sangui, and for all my brothers, fight to create a bright future!"

"I obey the prince's order!" A group of old people from Xiying shouted in unison, ready to fight for Wu Sangui.

In the afternoon of the same day, the main force of the 70,000 Wu army, mainly the troops from the Western Camp, dispersed.

On the Yellow River, which is hundreds of miles long, they tried their best to collect ships and set up rafts.

Launched a full-scale attack on the Dashun Army on the south bank.

Hao Yaoqi led more than 10,000 troops under his command to resist with all his strength.

During this period, he received support from Wang Guangxing and He Zhen.

But under the full-line attack of 70,000 Wu troops.

Dashun's army blocked the east and west defenses, and was already at a loss.

Three days later, Ma Bao took the lead in breaking through and successfully crossed with thousands of soldiers and horses under his command.

And quickly set up camp and dug trenches.

A bridgehead was established on the south bank of the Yellow River.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Sangui quickly mobilized troops to support and ordered all armies to attack with all their strength to contain the strength of Dashun Army.

Under the all-out attack of 70,000 Wu troops, the more than 20,000 Shun troops on the south bank had already shown their defeat.

Li Laiheng had to prepare to mobilize troops and continue to block the Wu army, hoping to wait for reinforcements from Feng Shuangli.

However, at this moment, Hu Guozhu in Luoyang City was keenly aware of the opportunity.

That afternoon, 40,000 Wu troops swarmed out of the city.

Launched several fierce attacks on Li Laiheng's camp.

As a last resort, Li Laiheng, who only had about 40,000 troops left, had to fight with all his strength.

Relying on the camp, Hu Guozhu's attack was repelled.

And killed and wounded a large number of Wu troops.

However, at this time, under the attack of absolutely superior force.

The more than 20,000 loyal troops of Hao Yaoqi and others finally couldn't hold on on the south bank of the Yellow River!

"Brothers, fight back with all your strength!"

"Let the intruders see how powerful we are!" Qi Sansheng shouted in the bridgehead with reinforcements in place. (End of chapter)
