Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 318 Three Years War (Thirteen)
The western troops of the security regiment had already fought against Wu Sangui's army, and the troops in southern Zhejiang were also in full swing with Jin Li, Geng Jimao, Lu Wang Zhu Yihai and others.It can be said that these two fronts contained more than half of the military strength of the security regiment.Moreover, in order to prevent Zhu Chenggong and his navy from harassing eastern Zhejiang, Zhang Chengwu had to leave a large number of troops stationed in Taizhou, Ningbo, Shaoxing, Jiaxing and other counties along the coast. too much.Affected by the changes in the south, the returning home regiment, which had already died down, became active again, which restrained Zhang Chengwu's troops.As a result, the battle situation in southern Zhejiang has also fallen into a confrontation.

These two battles shook Jiangnan and the world, and the aftermath spread farther afield.

As the strength of the south is second only to the security regiment, the rest of the Great Western Army will not give up such a good situation.

In Ningyuan Prefecture in southern Sichuan, 20 troops gathered here, almost covering the entire land.Affected by Liu Wenxiu's death in battle, Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo temporarily united.At this time, Sun Kewang had already proclaimed himself King of Qin, Li Dingguo proclaimed himself King of Jin, and Liu Wenxiu, who died in battle, was posthumously named King of Shu.

In this war, most of the forces in the Jiangnan area were involved.Wu Sangui's troops in northern Hunan and northern Jiangxi were transferred to the border of Jiangnan Province, and Xinshun was also dispatching troops. It seemed that he had plans to follow the south of the Yangtze River. However, the Yongli forces in Guangxi had never been valued by the Daxi Army.Therefore, the Great Western Army has freed up its hands. Without the fetters of the outside world, the Great Western Army can fully devote itself to the Sichuan campaign.

For Sichuan, Sun Kewang has great ambitions.Now the forces of the Great Western Army have included Yunnan, Guizhou and parts of Guangxi and Hunan.If Sichuan is captured, the entire Southwest will fall into the hands of the Great Western Army, and the Great Western Army will even have the capital to build a country.

But in his heart, Sun Kewang still has a biggest opponent.He is not Qiu Tianxing, the head of the security regiment, but Li Dingguo who is temporarily in the same camp.

Li Dingguo has a high prestige for being brave and good at fighting, and has always been feared by Sun Kewang.Before Liu Wenxiu moved closer to Li Dingguo, the two camps were in balance with each other, and they were relatively peaceful.But Liu Wenxiu was defeated and died, and this balance was broken.

Although Sun Kewang wanted to launch a unified war within the Great Western Army, the counselor suggested that he should first unite with the outside world and then go inside.After all, the current situation is so good that the gangsters have aroused public anger because of their arrogance.The crusade against the security regiment is in line with the people's hearts, it is to occupy the righteousness, and it is to conform to the general trend.

Once such an opportunity is missed, if the security team survives this catastrophe and frees up their hands, then the Great West Army will fall into a passive state.Under the encirclement of the bandit headquarters and Ye Su's department, the development of the Daxi Army will be difficult.

Not only Sun Kewang, but Li Dingguo also realized this, so the two sides joined hands for the time being.

Now Li Dingguo's territory is in southern Hunan and northern Guangxi. This time, for joint operations, Li Dingguo personally commanded an army of 12 to southern Sichuan, and combined with Sun Kewang's 20 troops to form 20 troops.Of course, there are less than [-] soldiers in the [-] army, and more than half are auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands, but compared to Ye Su's tribe, it is also very scary.

In the past few years since entering Sichuan, Ye Su spent most of his time fighting.Although many people migrated to Sichuan, because of the short time, these people did not reproduce much.Many of the newly added population are still children of a few years old, and it will take at least ten years before they become qualified soldiers.

When he joined forces with Liu Wenxiu to attack the Tartars, Ye Su attacked Liu Wenxiu's troops in a sneak attack, and wiped out a part of the Great Western Army under the command of Liu Wenxiu in one fell swoop.At that time, the results of such battles were brilliant. So far, the Daxi Army was no longer able to compete with Ye Su for Sichuan, and the remaining troops retreated to Ningyuan Mansion in the south, even if Sun Kewang sent troops into Sichuan.

For more than a year, Ye Su desperately expanded his strength, but fell into the massacres of Zhang Xianzhong, Yaohuang Shisanjia, Ming army, and Tartars, and the population of Sichuan had dropped to the bottom.Even though Ye Su moved the people from Hubei to Sichuan and worked hard for several years, the current population is only 60, and the army under his command is less than [-].

Because of the small population, Ye Su had already given up Xuzhou Prefecture in southern Sichuan, Hanyuan County and Qingxi County in Yazhou Prefecture, and Ebian and Qianwei counties in Jiading Prefecture.Shrink the people and military power in the area from Chengdu to Chongqing.

The Great Western Army did not accept Ye Su's abandonment of the territory.Because a territory without a population is tasteless, it will not have any output, it will just continue to fill it with military power and military resources in vain.

When Ye Su learned that the headquarters had fought against Haoxiong from the south, he had a bad feeling in his heart.Although it seems that the headquarters cannot support the sixth battalion in terms of materials, the prestige of the headquarters protects the sixth battalion all the time.Facing the strong forces of the security regiment, Xinshun's headquarters did not want to be an enemy of the Sixth Battalion, and the Daxi Army did not formally declare war on the Sixth Battalion, but the small troops continued to friction.And due to the strong influence of the security regiment, some small forces in Ye Suzhi also obeyed the orders of the Sixth Battalion, and the young people in the mountains were also very obedient and rarely harassed.

But it has changed now. Once the headquarters fights together, these forces that were originally obedient will no longer be so obedient.The Daxi Army was originally like bandits on both sides, and they would definitely not give up such an opportunity.Due to internal and external troubles, Liuying's life is difficult.

Ye Su fell into sorrow, and when the news came that hundreds of thousands of Great Western Army troops from Ningyuan Prefecture in southern Sichuan had pledged their troops to go north, Ye Su's hair turned gray in a hurry.

At this moment, Ye Su's mood was almost desperate.He is responsible for the safety of hundreds of thousands of people under his rule, and he is responsible for the [-] soldiers under his command.At this time, his pressure is extremely great.Even Ye Su's heart was shaken.

And Ye Su's vacillation greatly affected the morale of the Sixth Battalion. The generals were panicked and did not know how to choose.And the soldiers were even more rumored that the battalion commander was dressed everywhere and was about to surrender, and the morale was extremely low.

At this time, the anxious Sixth Battalion trainer Wang Huakang found Ye Su.Tang Chengbin, the trainer of the Sixth Battalion, died in battle, and Ye Su served as the trainer for a while.However, the battalion commander is already busy with his duties, so he really can't take care of the work of the training officer.So he promoted his confidant Wang Huakang from the captain to the position of training officer.Of course, Ye Su can do this kind of thing alone, at most, he can report to the headquarters.

Because Ye Su's vacillation related to the life and death of Liuying, Wang Huakang, who was loyal to Ye Su, had to stand up.
