Chapter 761 King Gao's True Fragrance Law
In Zhen'an Prefecture, Guangxi, the city was covered with corpses, shields, broken knives, long ladders were scattered on the ground, and huge siege equipment was paralyzed under the city wall, igniting a raging fire.

A golden sound resounded, and the soldiers and horses of the Western Army and Chieftain outside the city retreated like a tide, and the sound of shouting and killing went straight up to the sky, and gradually faded away.

Sun Kewang pulled the rein, looked back at the city, and withdrew his troops back to the camp somewhat resentfully.

On the city wall, the half-burned Ming flag fluttered in the wind. The soldiers of the Ming army, armed with bows and arrows and blunderbusses, saw the retreat of the Western army, and immediately cheered, "The bandits have retreated! The bandits have retreated!"

On the city wall, a general wearing mountain-patterned armor, a phoenix-winged helmet on his head, and a red cloak behind him, walked between the wall stacks, half of his body exposed, looking out from the buttress with a melancholy expression, and looked at Xi Shi who was retreating with his weapons behind him. Jun, but there was no joy on his face, but he turned his head and shouted: "Send a fast horse, and then go to the Fuyuan to ask for help."

"No!" A thousand households clasped their fists together, then turned around and went down the city.

The general of the Ming army is Jiao Lian, who put down the rebellion of King Jingjiang in history and supported Yongli. He was the general of Nanming. He once defeated Li Chengdong's invasion of Guilin, and was later killed by the traitor Chen Bangfu.

At this time, he was the deputy commander-in-chief of Guangxi in the Ming Dynasty, and he was under the control of the governor Qu Shixu. After the Western Army fled from Sichuan to Yunnan and Guizhou, the Ming Dynasty asked Ding Kuichu, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Qu Shixu, the governor of Guangxi, and Yang Wenyue, the re-activated governor of Guangdong, to organize troops. To besiege Sun Kewang, we must ensure that Guangdong and Guangxi are not lost.

Sun Kewang took the initiative to move from southern Sichuan to Yunnan and Guizhou. There are more than 200 soldiers and horses of the Western Army plus their family members. In Yunnan and Guizhou, the registered population is only 200 million people. Those chieftains in the deep mountains and forests can't do anything. Taxation, 20 million people supporting [-] people, the pressure is obviously very huge.

Although Sun Kewang exchanged copper and tea for a lot of food from the Western Wei Dynasty, it still could not meet the consumption of the Western Army.

If it was Zhang Xianzhong who didn't have enough to eat, he would definitely loot Yunnan and Guizhou and continue to flee, but Sun Kewang resumed production in Yungui and used it as a foundation for management.

He did not plunder in Yunnan and Guizhou. He only killed many landlords and chieftains when he entered Yunnan. After defeating Shadingzhou and stabilizing the situation, he immediately ended the killing and resumed production. Resources to enrich Yungui.

Since the beginning of this year, the Western Army has begun to encroach on Guangxi, successively capturing Lintian, Baise, Tianyang and other counties.

Sun Kewang is about to capture Zhen'an Mansion, then capture Taiping Mansion and fight to the sea, and finally break into Guangdong.

At this time, the Western Army had been besieging Zhen'an for less than half a month. Jiao Lian watched the Western Army retreat to the barracks, turned his head to look at the messy city wall, and immediately pressed his sword in one hand, and ordered loudly: "Clean up the corpses, replenish the equipment, each Qianhu reports casualties to General Ben!"

Four miles outside Zhen'an City, the army tents are scattered in the wild, with 1 soldiers from the Western Army and more than [-] native soldiers from Yunnan, setting up company camps.

In September, it is golden autumn in the north, and the weather gradually cools down, but in Guangdong and Guangxi, the weather is still hot.

Last year, under such scorching heat and the miasma in the southwest, the Western Army lost nearly [-]% of its personnel, but this year the situation is much better. The soldiers who have survived have basically gradually adapted to the hot and humid climate.

At this time, the western army retreated back to the big camp, and the soldiers entered the gate of the camp and rested in the shade one after another, while Sun Kewang returned to the command tent.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Ai Nengqi greeted him, "Your Majesty, the message from Kunming is the Western Wei State Book sent by Niu Jinxing, written by the King of Wei himself!"

"Gao Yihuan's letter of credence?" Sun Kewang frowned slightly, took it and tore off the wax seal, took it out to look at it, and immediately showed anger on his face, "Gao Yihuan really regards this king as his subordinate, and Daxi as his vassal It’s really unreasonable to order this king not to attack the Ming Dynasty, but to attack Guangnan Fanbang!”

Sun Kewang kneaded the letter of state into a ball, still not relieved, he gritted his teeth and said: "What I want is the rich and prosperous Guangdong and Guangxi. Even if I am defeated and die, I will not leave China and go to the wilderness in the south!"

Escaping to Yunnan is already considered a remote frontier place, Sun Kewang was already annoyed, now Gao Yihuan asked him to go further south, not to deceive others.

Seeing this, Ai Nengqi worried and said: "My lord, a large part of our food and grass is supplied by the Western Wei Dynasty. If the Western Wei Dynasty cuts off the supply, we will immediately suffer from famine! Now the army has besieged Zhen'an Office for a month, but they still haven't taken it down. Qu Shixu Zhao Yinxuan and Hu Yiqing have been dispatched to reinforce Zhen'an, but the king directly rejects the Western Wei Dynasty, I'm afraid the situation will be bad!"

Sun Kewang waved his hand, "Xi'an is thousands of miles away from Guangxi, and even Sichuan is thousands of miles away. I will ignore him for now, and wait until Zhen'an and Taiping are conquered!"

Speaking of which, Sun Kewang raised the curtain and got into the tent. Just as he took off his helmet and hung it on the shelf, Feng Shuangli lifted the curtain and came in. He said in a panic, "Your Majesty, Zhao Yinxuan broke through the barriers and rushed into Zhen'an."

"What?" Sun Kewang was furious instantly, "How can the Ming army rush into the city? Wouldn't it be a waste of effort for the king to besiege for many days!"

Feng Shuangli said: "The elites of the Ming army are here. They are all troops from Guangdong and Guangxi who often fought against the chieftain. They are not weak in combat strength. There are also troops coming from behind. It seems that Yang Wenyue, the governor of Guangdong, has also arrived."

"Yang Wenyue?" Sun Kewang took a breath, "He's not dead yet!"

……

In the early morning of the next day, just after dawn, the guards of Zhen'an Mansion looked down the city, and the tents spread all over the four miles had disappeared.

The soldier was taken aback for a moment, rubbed his eyes and looked again, the Western Army had already pulled out the camp and left, the soldier immediately pushed the soldier next to him, and exclaimed: "Look, the bandits have retreated!"

Not long after, Jiao Lian and Zhao Yinxuan boarded the city wall and looked outside the city, but there was no trace of the Western Army.

Jiao Lian was overjoyed, "Hurry up, let the scouts go out of the city to investigate!"

Zhao Yinxuan ordered: "Chess and board officer, quickly report to Fuyuan!"

Horses rushed out of the city, not long after, the scouts reported that the western army was indeed retreating, and the defenders on the city immediately gave a cheer.

……

At the end of September, Vietnam, Cao Binh City.

Vietnam is known as Tiannan Xiaohua, and now it is similar to the situation in the Central Plains, and it is also divided into three countries.

Among them, the most powerful is the Le Dynasty in Thang Long, then the Nguyen regime in southern Vietnam, and finally the Mo Dynasty in Cao Binh.

At this time, Gaoping City was covered with the corpses of soldiers of the Mo Dynasty. The gate of Gaoping City was blasted open by earth cannons, and teams of prisoners were pushed out by the Western Army.

Wearing armor, Sun Kewang rode a horse and stood beside the city gate. When he saw the soldiers of the Western Army bringing out cartloads of treasures and bags of rice, his face burst into laughter, "Haha~ I didn't expect such a barren place. How rich it is!"
