The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 314
Xia Fuxian laughed and shook his head, "I'm afraid General Zhang is overthinking. The imperial army follows the way of heaven, and it is the general trend to accept leaders wherever they go. Besides, what's the threat with the more than 2000 soldiers in Wuzhou City?"

Zhang Jiayu still cautiously said: "You have to be on guard. Back then Liu Xuande only had a few thousand troops, but Xinye City killed a hundred thousand Wei troops..."

Zhu Linmei also nodded slightly in her heart, never should underestimate the enemy.Although it is more than [-]% likely that Wuzhou has fallen, if there is a change, at least Ding Kuichu will breathe a sigh of relief. I don't know how long the battle in Guangxi will be delayed.

"The safest strategy at the moment," Zhang Jiayufu raised his palm into a knife again, and slammed it heavily at Cenxi between Wuzhou and Bobai on the map. The connection between the main force of the rebel army and Wuzhou was severed.

"At that time, Wuzhou is the best place to really surrender. If there is any fraud, we will divide our troops to attack the city. With Wuzhou's [-] weak troops, we will not be able to hold it for a long time. If Ding Kuichu wants to lead his troops to support Wuzhou, he will be intercepted by our army at Cenxi. "

Two thousand weak troops... Intercepting at Cenxi?Zhu Linmi suddenly had a flash of inspiration when she heard the words, by the way, why must she be entangled in Wuzhou?There are only 2000 people there, and I should keep an eye on Ding Kuichu's [-] main force. That is the key to defeating Guangxi!
After grasping this clue, he immediately felt that his thoughts became smoother, and his frown that had been tightly frowned gradually relaxed.

At first, Zhang Jiayu suggested to rob Ding Kui and Chu's rear team of food and supplies, but he has been stuck in this way of thinking since then. In fact, the significance of robbing these supplies is not great.Ding Kuichu still controls the southern part of Guangxi, and he can collect food on the spot at any time, but the attack process will startle the snake.

After understanding this verse, Zhu Linmi immediately smiled and said, "According to what Yuanzi said, the whole army passed the north side of the Yunwu Mountains and rushed to Cenxi. However, Ding Kui and Chu's luggage must be spared, and they will not attack Cenxi City."

All the generals were taken aback when they heard the words - marching and fighting, destroying the enemy's food, grass and supplies is the first choice, not to mention that there are twelve heavy artillery pieces among them, but His Royal Highness the Assistant King wants to let them go?

"My lord, what is the meaning of this move?"

"If we don't take Cenxi City, how will we deploy our defenses?"

Zhu Linmi didn't answer, but said: "The rest is how to get Ding Kuichu to return to Wuzhou, but this method is readily available."

He then instructed Zhao Shichao, "Immediately lead the hussar battalion to rush to Wuzhou, and take King Gui and Sun Pengyun to Cenxi. Remember, don't enter the city lightly, and take precautions."

"Yes!"

Zhao Shichao saluted and accepted the order, and then hesitantly said: "My lord, if it is true as General Zhang said, Wuzhou did not really surrender, and maybe we cannot receive King Gui..."

Zhu Linmei smiled and shook her head, "If it really comes down, there will be no side issues.

"If Sun Pengyun and others deceive me, according to what Xu Feihu said, they will definitely use King Gui to lure me. You just follow the trend, eat this bait, and take it to Cenxi."

"Yes!" Zhao Shichao immediately took the order and left.

Zhu Linmi then called the other generals to gather in front of the map, and explained her plan in detail, "...In this way, the Ding family will return to Wuzhou, and our army will wait here..."

Xia Fu was a little worried when he heard the words: "Master, if Ding Kuichu doesn't take the bait..."

Before Zhu Linming could say anything, Zhang Jiayu continued, "Of course not."

He bowed to Zhu Lin again, "My lord's plan is a conspiracy. Even if Mrs. Ding finds out that there is something wrong with it, but all his hopes are tied to it, he can only take the risk and go to Wuzhou."

"That's right." Zhu Linmei nodded and continued, "Then we only need to do this and that... the general situation in Guangxi is settled!
"Even if the rebels are stubborn and don't surrender, it's not difficult for us to defeat them in one fell swoop!"

Only then did the generals learn of the overall plan of the assistant king, so they looked at each other, saluted and shouted together: "Destroy the enemy in one fell swoop, and conquer Guangxi!"

……

"Prince Gui is still in Wuzhou?!" Chen Keru was so startled when he heard the thunderbolt from the blue sky, he was so shocked, "This, how is this possible... Then Lu Jin did die in Lu Chuan, and his son is also called..."

"Hmph!" Ding Kuichu threw two pieces of paper on his face angrily, "It was you who brought back these fake news, which almost missed me! If Sun Pengyun hadn't sent people out of the city to report this time, when we reach Luchuan, Wuzhou has already fallen into the hands of King Chen!"

Chen Ke hurriedly picked up the paper from the ground and watched it.

The previous one was written by Sun Pengyun who stayed behind in Wuzhou.The letter said that King Gui escaped from the gangsters four days ago and went to the county government office to seek asylum. He said that he was knocked unconscious and robbed him from the palace, and hid in Wuzhou City.

Upon hearing the news, Sun Pengyun immediately sent troops to capture the people who had kidnapped King Gui. After torture and interrogation, he learned that these people were the Imperial Guards and wanted to kidnap King Gui and return to Fujing for trial.

The day after King Gui appeared, Wuzhou was surrounded by [-] troops from the imperial court, and twenty cannons bombarded him day and night, only to make Sun Pengyun surrender to King Gui.

Although Sun Pengyun desperately repelled King Chen's repeated attacks, there were only two thousand underdogs in the city, and Wuzhou was in danger.

Later in the letter, it was mentioned that the Jinyi guards confessed that Lu Jin fled all the way south under their coercion. When they passed the Mima River, they tampered with Lu Jin on the bridge and killed him.Before that, Jin Yiwei had deliberately mentioned Bobai and other words to Lu Jin, and let his son hear it, in order to create the illusion that King Gui was in southern Guangxi.

In addition, the merchant contacted by the commander of Bobaiwei was also disguised as Jinyiwei, who deliberately took out the "Silver Leaf of the Silver Work Bureau" in order to lure the army of Dutang to leave Wuzhou and go south.

At the end of the letter, there are Sun Pengyun's official and private seals, which are clearly identifiable.

The last letter was written by King Gui himself, stating that the court had determined that he was going to rebel, and that if he fell into the hands of King Chen, he would surely die.I implore Ding Dutang's speed department to help. When Chen Wang's soldiers retreat, he will immediately announce his enthronement. The year name has been thought out, and it will be called "Yongli"!
At the end of the letter is the seal of King Gui.

After reading the two secret letters, Chen Ke was so frightened that cold sweat ran down his spine to his thighs.He was the one who told Dutang Ding the information that "King Gui may be in Bobai", and he personally interrogated Lu Jin's son, so Lord Dutang decided to lead the army south.

If Sun Pengyun's letter came a few days later, King Gui would really fall into the hands of the court, and Ding Dutang would kill him to vent his anger.

Resisting his fear, he picked up the letter and read it again, and said cautiously: "Du Tang, could this be forged by King Chen?"

Ding Kuichu snorted coldly, raised his hand and threw something to him, "Can this be faked?"

Chen Ke hurriedly took it in his hand, raised it to his eyes for a closer look, and saw that it was a black jade wrench with nine intertwined four-clawed dragons engraved on it, it was exactly what King Gui often held in his hand.

He was stunned for a long while, and managed to hold back a sentence, "Inspector Tang, what should we do now?"
