Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 64 The King of Jin’s Battle to Kill the Thieves ([-])

Li Dingguo led a large number of cavalry, swept like a strong wind, and pursued Wu Sangui.

At this time, Li Dingguo, the king of Jin in the Southern Ming Dynasty, was really in high spirits. Once upon a time, he was defeated by the Qing army, and there were also times when he was depressed.Although he killed more Qing troops in the Battle of Mopanshan, the Ming army did not continue to fight on a large scale.

But at this time Li Dingguo led an army of [-], and the cavalry he was chasing Wu Sangui at this moment alone had [-] troops.Li Dingguo's men and horses are majestic, and they carry the power of a great victory. On the other hand, Wu Sangui was broken into the city, and it was difficult for his soldiers to organize any effective resistance even in front of the Ming army. Able to break through with a small number of confidant troops.

Wu Sangui held the reins in his old hands, even though he still thought he was at the peak of his age, two consecutive defeats had already made his hair tied with money tails even paler.

"That side seems to be the chieftain's army, which is much weaker, so we will break out from here!" Wu Sangui said.

The Ming army besieged Kunming City for many days, but the defense was very mobile. The besieging troops in one direction would switch defenses with other troops after a while, making the entire defense line fluid. , it no longer exists.

Wu Sangui had noticed earlier that there was a coalition of chieftains guarding the defense line in this direction. The strength was not too small or too large, but it was definitely much easier to deal with than the Ming army.

Sure enough, the Wu army's breakout troops launched an attack, and the chieftain army, mainly infantry, only resisted for a while, and then dispersed. Wu Sangui took the opportunity to lead the troops through quickly.

"As long as you go east, you can escape to Guizhou. There are still many of my people in Guizhou and Hunan. I, Pingxi King Wu Sangui, can still make a comeback!" Wu Sangui thought bitterly in his heart.

But what Wu Sangui was thinking about was not how to deal with the Ming Dynasty's Restoration Army. This Ming Army had already given him too many surprises, making him frightened. Facing Li Dingguo, Wu Sangui no longer dared to fight anymore.What this old fox is thinking about now is how to control and strengthen his own power to separate himself.

Wu Sangui and his party fled frantically, and they didn't care about many other things at all.He has saddled the horse for many years, and although he is old, he can still urge the horse to go fast.It's just that his team didn't maintain well, and it got a bit long.

"My lord, Li Dingguo's handsome flag! Li Dingguo is chasing after him."

"What?" Wu Sangui was shocked.

He could see from a distance that bright red flags fluttered in the wind. Daming was still red, and because of Bai Mingxiu's relationship, all the flags of the Ming Fuguo Army were red, while Li Dingguo's handsome flag was red. The bottom is gold-rimmed, and a Li character is written in gold letters in the middle, which is quite conspicuous.

"So fast?!" Wu Sangui was shocked.

Of course Li Dingguo knew that Wu Sangui would definitely abandon the city and flee if he couldn't beat him, so when he set up the cavalry, he had already considered how to mobilize troops to pursue this situation.

Seeing the Ming cavalry getting closer and closer, Wu Sangui's son-in-law Hu Guozhu gritted his teeth and said: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law will cut off the queen for you!"

Hu Guozhu led a hundred cavalry, turned around and went back.These soldiers are the most elite and loyal soldiers under Wu Sangui, and many of them have fought with Wu Sangui since he was still guarding Shanhaiguan.These people are already the last mourners. They know that they will die in this battle, but they are willing to die in order to protect the lord.

The few cavalrymen who rushed to the front were holding the Thompson submachine gun that Bai Mingxiu had left behind.Continuous bullets were fired, and more than a dozen Wu Army cavalry fell off their horses. Even Hu Guozhu himself was hit by a bullet in the thigh, and blood gushed out.

Hu Guozhu gritted his teeth, held a steel knife, and shouted that he was about to charge into the formation of the Ming army.And the two knights of the Ming army, holding spears on the left and right, penetrated directly into Hu Guozhu's body, and directly poked him off the horse.

The cavalry behind were still advancing, and their horseshoes stamped on Hu Guozhu's body. In the end, the brave general died under the horseshoes of the Ming army without closing his eyes.

More than a hundred Wu troops cut off the rear cavalry, and in just a few moments, the Ming army killed them all.While they were fighting, the other cavalry pursued by the Ming army immediately overtook from both sides and continued to pursue, so Wu Sangui's retreat had no effect at all.

The Ming army pursued them closer and closer, and Wu Sangui's hand holding the reins turned blue. He knew that he would not be able to escape today.

His son-in-law Xia Guoxiang also bit his lip, his face turned pale.

And at this moment, on the only way he could escape, dozens of elephants actually ran out of the forest on both sides. A group of guys who looked like Burmese were driving the elephants and blocking his way.

This was the elephant team of the vassal army that Li Dingguo had ambushed in advance. Li Dingguo had made preparations in many places around Kunming and laid out dragnets, just to capture Wu Sangui.

"Forget it, God will kill me, Wu Sangui." Wu Sangui let out a long sigh, and got off his horse.Behind him, other generals and soldiers of the Wu army also got off their horses, and many of them even had expressions of relief on their faces.

A large number of Ming army cavalry arrived, reined in their horses and stopped, and Li Dingguo also came to his head. Seeing Wu Sangui in military uniform, he took off his helmet and knelt down on the ground trembling.

"The guilty minister Wu Sangui comes to see His Highness the King of Jin."

Li Dingguo sat on the horse, looked down at Wu Sangui, and said, "Prince Pingxi, have you come to recognize your subjects at this time? Li Dingguo can't stand your worship."

Wu Sangui pretended to be responsible at this time, raised his head and raised his voice and said: "King Jin, the guilty minister was defeated, and all the faults will be borne by Sangui. Please, Jin Wang, for the sake of love, bypass the old man who has followed the criminal for so many years. Brothers, Sangui is willing to apologize with death!"

Later, Xia Guoping and other generals of the Wu army mourned greatly, and called out mournfully, "My lord, I will follow you to Huangquan."

Li Dingguo sneered, and said: "This king is not interested in watching your performance, come here, and tie up the second official Wu Sangui and other rebels, and take them back to Kunming for disposal."

Xia Guoxiang knelt on the ground and counted his knees forward, clasped his fists and said: "Prince Jin, I have always heard that you are benevolent and merciful. Today we were defeated on the battlefield. My father-in-law is old. Please be sympathetic and forgive him. One life."

The rest of the generals of the Wu army also cried and howled, pleading with Li Dingguo in unintelligible words.

With a cold face, Li Dingguo said in a voice like ice scum: "Spare your lives? Then let me ask, who will spare the lives of the tens of millions of Han people in the Central Plains? They are all scum of your race. Leading the Qing army into the pass, betraying the Lord and seeking glory, and poisoning the living beings, killing once can't relieve the hatred in my heart, I wish I could kill thousands of times, and eat the flesh of my second minister!"
