Daming: Stealing Chen Yuanyuan at the beginning

Chapter 167 Sun Kewang Abandoned the City and Fleeed, A Gentleman Has the Beauty of an Adult

The news that Li Dingguo led eight thousand men to return to the Ming Dynasty reached Kunming, and Sun Kewang was completely panicked and restless.He paced back and forth in the hall of Qian Guogong's mansion, helpless.

Earlier, Sun Kewang had received the news that Liu Wenxiu had died in the army. Now that Li Dingguo had officially surrendered to Chongzhen, the main figures of the Great Western Army died and scattered, and Sun Kewang really became a loner.

Feng Shuangli stepped over the high threshold and walked in. He saw that there were no lights in the hall and the light was dim.Sun Kewang is like a ghost, wandering in the darkness.

"Why don't you light a lamp?" Feng Shuangli said, standing in front of a pillar and lighting up the oil lamp.

"Don't light the lamp!" Sun Kewang roared.

Feng Shuangli was startled, his hands trembled, and the lamp overturned and fell to the ground.

Sun Kewang said painfully: "General Feng, don't light up the lamp. I have been restless for the past few days, and I feel dizzy when I see the light."

Feng Shuangli thought to himself, isn't this a good omen? The king is panicking, and Kunming City will definitely not be able to defend it. Are we going to be buried with him?

"My lord, cheer up!" Feng Shuangli said.

Sun Kewang seemed greatly moved, he came to Feng Shuangli step by step, patted him on the shoulder and said, "General Feng, now I can only count on you!"

"The spies came to report that Qi Dazhuang led [-] Ming troops to take down Roots and was heading towards Biji Pass; Chongzhen surrendered Li Dingguo, and will go north to Kunming in a few days. Enemies on both sides, and the Ming army is several times larger than mine, what should we do?" response?"

Feng Shuangli said: "The Ming army has a total of 15 soldiers and horses, and we have only 4 to [-] in total. We will definitely not be able to defend Kunming City. Rather than sit and wait for death, it is better to run away."

"Where are you going?"

"East!"

"To Guizhou? But Zhang Huangyan is in Guiyang, and Li Guo's army is in Chongqing. How far can we escape to the east?"

"When we get to Qujing, we turn north and go to Sichuan."

"But the Qing soldiers are in Sichuan and Shu..."

"My lord, now that things have come to an end, think about it, will it end well if you fall into Chongzhen's hands? Li Dingguo must be full of resentment towards you, will he let you go?"

"You mean surrendering to the Manchus..." Sun Kewang was stunned and couldn't continue.

When Zhang Xianzhong died, Yin Yin warned Sun Kewang that he should surrender to the Ming Dynasty and never surrender to the Manchu Tartars.

To be honest, Sun Kewang had never thought of surrendering to the Manchus.He felt scared and shuddered: "Surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, how can I be worthy of Lao Long live? No, absolutely not..."

Feng Shuangli shouted: "Then we have to wait for death!"

Sun Kewang was silent, as if he were dead.The hall became darker and darker, and there was no sound, only his heavy and difficult breathing could be heard.

I don't know how long it took, but Sun Kewang was sweating profusely, and his voice was hollow and indifferent: "Feng Shuangli listened to the order and used all the soldiers and horses in Kunming City to protect Gu and go to Sichuan and Shu."

"Saving your life is the most important thing!" Feng Shuangli breathed a sigh of relief.

When the Great Western Army left Kunming City, it was in chaos, and Sun Kewang was too lazy to restrain the soldiers and let them plunder the people in the city.

Then, in an atmosphere of constant panic, Sun Kewang left Kunming and fled towards Qujing without stopping.But he suffered from the root cause of the disease and could not see the sun. He hid in the carriage all day without showing his face.

……

The Jinyiwei spies have been paying attention to the movement in Kunming City, and the news that the Great Western Army abandoned the city and fled was quickly transmitted to the imperial case.

Li Cunming smiled and said: "I put down the Shadingzhou Rebellion, and formulated a strategy for two armies to encircle Kunming, leaving a gap on the east side. If it is as I expected, Sun Kewang will really flee to the east."

"This will save a lot of trouble. If Sun Kewang defends Kunming City, it will be much more difficult to attack the city than to fight in the field. Our army will inevitably suffer a lot of losses."

Xia Wanchun said: "Your Majesty is exhaustive, I admire you! When Sun Kewang left Kunming, our soldiers were able to enter Kunming City without bloodshed. It's really gratifying. But we can't let Sun Kewang escape, we must immediately send troops to intercept and kill him."

Li Cunming looked at Li Dingguo and said, "General Li, I intend to send you to Qujing to intercept Sun Kewang. Are you willing to go?"

Li Dingguo hesitated and said: "I really don't want to meet my brothers from the past..."

"That's all, I will send someone else to go."

"No, Your Majesty, let me go!" Li Dingguo knelt down and begged for orders, saying sincerely, "Since I have surrendered to Your Majesty, I have no other choice but to do my best. I will go to Qujing to intercept the Daxi Army. The prestige in the Daxi Army means that even if Sun Kewang cannot be persuaded to surrender, he can still recruit many people to surrender."

"That's great!" Li Cunming laughed.

Then he issued an order for Li Dingguo to take 5 horses and rush to Qujing.

When Li Dingguo set off, Li Cunming saw him off in person, poured a glass of wine and handed it to Li Dingguo, saying: "General Li will go out in person, I have nothing to worry about! General Li is going to fight in Qujing, and I have to leave Chengjiang for Kunming. I hope that we, the monarch and his ministers, will See you in Kunming soon, I will give the general a celebration banquet."

Then, clapping their hands, the elephant soldiers drove more than 50 war elephants.

Li Cunming said: "These war elephants were captured by me from Sha Dingzhou, and they are all here. The war elephants are unstoppable, help General Li!"

"Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to my high expectations!" Li Dingguo saluted, got on his horse and shouted, "All officers and men listen to the order and set off!"

The [-] soldiers marched away in high spirits, raising dust and covering the sky and the sun.

Xia Wanchun held back for a long time, he obviously had something to say, but he hesitated to speak.

Li Cunming turned around and said, "Xia Wanchun, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't hold it back."

"Your Majesty, I don't doubt General Li's loyalty. I just think it's inappropriate to send him to hunt down Sun Kewang. The two of them had an old relationship and were sworn brothers. General Li is a benevolent gentleman. I am worried that he will let him go because of a momentary soft-heartedness." Sun Kewang."

Li Cunming stood with his hands behind his back, looked at the sky, and said leisurely: "Guan Yunchang Huarong explained Cao Cao's righteousness, and his reputation has lasted through the ages. I am helping Li Dingguo!"

"Your Majesty, do you expect Li Ding to follow Guan Yunchang's example?"

"Could Li Dingguo become the God of War of the Ming Dynasty without loyalty? Let's make a bet if you don't believe me!"

"But the emperor doesn't want to kill Sun Kewang to avoid future troubles?"

Li Cunming said meaningfully: "Xia Wanchun, you have to remember that a gentleman has the beauty of an adult."

"This is to help Li Dingguo get rid of a heart problem. No matter what Li Dingguo chooses, after the battle of Qujing, he will have no worries. Only a general who has no worries can transform into a god of war and go forward bravely!"

Xia Wanchun lowered his head and pondered for a long time. He understood the emperor's good intentions and was deeply moved: "Your Majesty, General Li is lucky enough to meet the Ming Lord!"

Li Cunming smiled and said: "Don't be in a hurry to flatter me. Do you dare to bet with me? If you lose, you can use the plum blossom number you learned to make a divination and let me see what you are capable of. If I lose, , I asked Chen Yuanyuan to play chess with you. How about it?"

Xia Wanchun laughed out loud, Chen Yuanyuan rolled her eyes and shouted, "Why is it always me who suffers?"
