Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 273 The Second Eastern Expedition ([-])
In May of the 11th year of Huaxing, the security regiment issued a notice to send 30 troops to march eastward in Zhejiang, which shocked the whole world for a while.

Today, the standing army of the Security Corps Headquarters has four battalions with about 50 troops.In addition to the reserve militia, agricultural guards, joint defense members, security guards and other armed forces, the total strength of the security regiment almost reached one million.It is precisely because the security regiment headquarters has such a huge force that the surrounding anti-Tartar forces dare not easily pluck the tiger's beard.

Now the security regiment has 30 soldiers, and everyone in the south is in danger.Although the security team said that the army went east to conquer Jin Li in Zhejiang, who would believe this? The 30 army can almost sweep the entire south!Because the 30 troops mentioned by the security regiment did not include the auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands, but the actual 30 soldiers!
For a while, the southern heroes who were at odds fell silent. Everyone watched the movements of the security team to see where they were pointing their swords.

When he learned that the 30 bandit army was about to kill him, Jin Li, the king of Dingdong of the Tartars, panicked.Although Jin Li's prince is the king of Dingdong, Jin Li knows that he can't stabilize the east. If he wants to Dingdong, he must first eliminate the gangsters, but this is something that even the imperial court can't do. How can I achieve it myself?

Meilezhangjing and Wu Rujie are now also given the rank of General Pingnan, which was once Jinli's official title.Wu Rujie knew the specific situation of his own forces, and he also knew that his side could not beat the gangsters at all.At the beginning, the bandits had Jiangdong Daying and Jiangxi Daying to keep them in check, and they repeatedly broke through Jiangdong Daying. Now that the two battalions are gone, it is difficult for a mere province of Zhejiang to resist the bandits, not to mention that Zhejiang is not all owned by King Dingdong.So, Wu Rujie said to Jin Li.

"My lord, the matter is urgent now, please let me know whether to fight or go."

At the same time, Tian Xiong, the admiral of Zhejiang, also shouted loudly.

"My lord, if you can't resist, why don't you surrender! Bandit bandits are in full swing right now, and if you surrender early, you will be considered a hero for the founding of the country!"

Hearing this, Wu Rujie frowned coldly, looked at Tian Xiong and said.

"The bandit excludes dissidents and only reuses the internal people. Has Mr. Tian ever seen the surrendered people be reused? In my opinion, it is better to surrender to the King of Lu. Surrender to the King of Lu with most of Zhejiang will be reused, and the high-ranking officials will continue to enjoy the rich salary. .”

"You? King Lu must not do it?" Tian Xiong was taken aback.He was one of the people who captured Emperor Hongguang!Although Tian Xiong also knows that Canming is fighting for power internally, and he won't be angry if he takes Hongguang King Lu, but Tian Xiong is afraid that the people under King Lu will slander him and punish him, so he will be in trouble, after all, King Lu is also known as Inheriting the legal system of Hiromitsu.Therefore, for the sake of his own life, Tian Xiong would not surrender to King Lu, and would do everything possible to prevent others from surrendering.

As soon as Tian Xiong finished speaking, the commander-in-chief Ma Jinbao laughed and said.

"Master Tian, ​​is it because you arrested Hong Guang that you dare not go to see King Lu?"

Tian Xiong's face flushed red when Ma Jinbao's words touched his heart.He argued loudly.

"The security regiment has the tendency to dominate the south right now. Instead of going to the security regiment, you go to the king of Lu. I don't know what your intentions are, Zongbing Ma?"

Jin Li watched the people below arguing, and felt silent in his heart.To the Tazi court, he Jin Li was loyal.After all, decades of old relationship, is it just a matter of throwing it away?It's just that the imperial court has gone too far. In addition to giving himself the title, he and the [-] soldiers under his command have all become abandoned sons.The only function of the sacrifice is to contain the enemy.This chilled the rest of the Tartars who stayed in Zhejiang.The army is a strange place. When fighting alone as an abandoned child, there is little fighting spirit, but when the backup arrives, they become fearless and fighting. Even if the end of the two is the same, one dies in defense, One is to die in the charge.Now the morale of Jin Li's subordinates is low. After losing the spiritual support and material support of the Tazi court, the soldiers became depressed.However, because King Lu's subordinates were too weak, they did not lose the city or territory.

Moreover, Jin Li himself complained endlessly to the court. He would rather not have the throne but also have the support of the court's materials and soldiers.

A little tempted by what the people below said, Jin Li also wanted to take the territory and choose a refuge.Jin Li is not a very ambitious person, he thinks that he can make achievements by himself, so he still likes to find a backer.

Although the security group has a strong backing, the security group does not like to accept collateral forces.If you want to defect to the security group, the best ending is to be a rich man with no power or influence.If you're unlucky, you might be tried for traitor or murdered by some radical nationalist.Thinking of such consequences, Jin Li's scalp tingled suddenly.

It seems that it is better to surrender to King Lu, at least King Lu is weak, at least facing the army of bandits, King Lu will be trembling and needs to stand in front of himself.His lips were dead and his teeth were cold, King Lu would not be unaware of this truth.However, there is also a little trouble in surrendering to King Lu, that is, the family members of himself and his subordinates in the capital.If he took the lead and defected to King Lu, the family members might still be imprisoned.Of course, Jin Li was also very confident. With the launch of the gangster's Jiangnan offensive, more and more court officials would defect to the enemy. If the court dared to kill their family members one by one, it would create countless enemies.Therefore, although my family members are in prison, they are absolutely not in danger of life.

When the people below were arguing more and more fiercely, Jin Li spoke up.

"Okay, stop arguing. The gangsters didn't call, but my brothers started fighting!"

Hearing this, Tian Xiong felt chills in his heart, but he was not desperate yet, he still thought that the prince would take his subordinates away to Fujian.There are many mountains in Fujian, and there is King Jingnan in Fujian. The two sides rely on each other and can always persevere.But Jin Li's next sentence made Tian Xiong despair.

"General Pingnan, you go to Ningbo Mansion in person to see King Lu."

When Jin Li said this, Tian Xiong's heart turned cold.Tian Xiong couldn't listen to what Jin Li said later, his heart was full of despair.

After thinking about it, Tian Xiong decided to take the risk.Escaping to King Jingnan is unrealistic, maybe there will be a mistake in the mountains and roads, it is better to surrender to the security team in Xiancheng!
After the meeting ended, Tian Xiong didn't say much, but left in a hurry.But he didn't know that there was a person who was watching him from the beginning to the end, including his expression at this moment, and this person was Ma Jinbao.After seeing Tian Xiong leave, Ma Jinbao also left.But not long after he went out, he attracted a confidant, whispered something in his confidant's ear, and then the confidant left.

Two days later, outside the city of Yanzhou Prefecture where Tian Xiong was stationed, a knight was targeted shortly after leaving the city. After ten miles, the knight was stopped with his horse and man.The knight resisted desperately, but faced with ten surrounded enemies, he fought hard and died in the end.One of the leaders of the party that killed the knight groped around the knight and found a letter.The letter was wrapped in kraft paper and was not contaminated by plasma.After seeing the letter, the leader was overjoyed, and then hurried away with his troops.

Another day later, Tian Xiong, the admiral of Zhejiang, received an order from Jin Li to return to the provincial capital. In order not to arouse Jin Li's suspicion, Tian Xiong returned to Hangzhou and was arrested.At the same time, all his cronies who stayed in the camp were also arrested.

Three days later, Tian Xiong and his cronies were beheaded.At the same time, Jin Li officially played the banner of King Lu, and Jin Li was named Duke Mingyi by King Lu.
