I am the king of the dead

Chapter 778
Liu Pu stood in front of the bedroom of the Shenglong Palace, watching the five strong men, helping each other to leave the hall, Li Yimin was messing around, and the whole city of Shenglong knew about it.

The Ming army has already issued a call to arms and sent a call to Annan, and the entire north of Annan has a tendency to spread the call. People's hearts are unstable, and the army has turned into bandits, burning, killing and looting everywhere, and military disasters have covered the entire north of Annan.

And Li Sicheng, the fourth brother in the south, was in Tsinghua, like a mad dog, crazily pulling a strong man into the pro-military governor's mansion, planning to kill the boss Li Yimin before the Ming army arrived at Shenglong City.

In this situation, Li Yimin is still messing around.

Liu Pu looked back at the main hall of Shenglong Forbidden City, and froze in place for a while.

Like, so similar.

Daming during Zhengtong years and An Nanguo now are too similar.

The monarch is messing around, civil servants are fighting among themselves, generals are trying to get rich, and the people are rebelling, and the world is in turmoil.

Liu Pu really got used to such an environment, as if he had returned home, he waited for his servant to announce the decree to see him before he walked into the bedroom and reported the pond newspaper during this period.

After Liu Pu saw the ceremony, he lowered his head and said, "Aman of the Mo family led 2 people to detour to Shangshixi Prefecture to attack Pingxiang, Guangxi, and confronted the Ming army for three days."

"Being joined by the Ming army, more than [-] people were wiped out, and the remaining [-] surrendered to the Ming army, and were castrated and sent to Liuzhichang to dig coal."

The first thing was that the army went alone. Mo's Aman led more than 2 sergeants to fight Pingxiang, and the whole army was wiped out.

Liu Pu didn't want to understand why, where did he have the courage to attack Pingxiang when the Ming army was on the border with Chen Bing?

When Li Li was alive, Li Li didn't have the guts. After winning a battle, Li Li made a private peace with Wang Tong, and then formed an alliance privately. After declaring independence, he never dared to attack the Ming army again and sent the Ming army out of the country.

Li Yimin already knew about this matter and the result, which was also part of the Ming Army's call to action.

Obviously it was An Nan who was beaten, but Li Yimin didn't even have a reason to refute, because it was An Nan who beat Daming first!
Daming fought back.

If he didn't know that Mo's group of idiots, Daming, didn't look down on him at all, Li Yimin even suspected that Mo's was an inner ghost, who specially cooperated with Daming, giving Daming an excuse and a reason to start the war.

"A detour, can that place be detoured? After detours, there will be no return." Li Yimin complained, walking alone, rushing to die, Shangshi Xizhou, Yuan Guogong Ruan Chi can detour, so can Mo Shi?
Liu Pu put down a Tang newspaper, picked up another one and continued: "The Ming army passed on to Shangsilang Prefecture, and the Shangsilang Army general Zheng Zhai led the city's Chinese military, surrendered to Daming, presented the Yellow Book of Fish Scales, The six counties of Silang Prefecture belong to Daming."

"Surrendered?" Li Yimin asked with a serious face.

Liu Pu confirmed again: "Yes, I surrendered, isn't this something I guessed a long time ago?"

As the commander-in-chief of Guangdong and Guangxi, Liu Pu knew the situation in Shangsilang Prefecture too well.

Because of its geographical location such as mountains and hydrology, Shangsilang Prefecture is more convenient to travel with Longzhou in Daming, and it is impossible to pee in the same pot with Annan.

If Daming doesn't come over, the six counties of Shangsilang Prefecture want to be merged into Daming. When Daming calls, the soldiers and civilians of Shangsilang Prefecture immediately, immediately, without any hesitation, under the leadership of the generals and prefects, hold the yellow books and fish scale books , surrendered joyfully.

"Forget it." Li Yimin waved his hand, although he was a little irritable, but he had to accept this fact.

Liu Pu put down the Tang newspaper in Shangsilang Prefecture, picked up another Tang newspaper, and said: "Guangyuan Prefecture, Qiyuan Prefecture, Shangwen Prefecture, and Lang Son Prefecture have discovered the Daming scout Duntai Yuanhou, five branches of a hundred people The scouts of the team went to encircle and suppress, but they did not return at night, and got the news from Daming that the five hundred-man teams were beheaded by more than a hundred people, and scattered and fled."

"Other places are fine, but Lang Son Mansion, Holy Master, only by guarding Lang Son can we guard Thang Long. If Lang Son is lost, Thang Long will be lost. This place is very important."

One hundred thousand mountains and one road, only Lang Son can pass.

Annan has been going back and forth since the end of the Qin Dynasty. Only by guarding Lang Son can he guard Thang Long; Once Lang Son was captured, Annan was captured.

Lang Son is a mountain city, easy to defend but difficult to attack, and difficult to attack. As long as Lang Son can be defended, it will have the capital to negotiate with Daming, otherwise everything will be empty talk.

Liu Pu said very worriedly: "My lord, this time is different from the six years of Yongle. This time, the Ming army is likely to take the Qinzhou waterway to Luofu, and attack our important coastal town in Annan along the way."

"Furthermore, the Yunnan-Guizhou army of the Ming Dynasty will come down from the Red River, but it should be mainly to harass and attract our troops. After all, the [-]-strong mountain is difficult to pass through."

Daming's offensive is in three directions. The direction of the upper reaches of the Red River is not the main force of the Ming's Yunnan-Guizhou frontier army.

The remaining two roads are played by land and sea.

All the way south from Zhennanguan land road, all the way south from Qinzhou sea road.

Li Yimin said with a painful face: "Whatever is good, what is good, it's all the fourth brother's fault!"

"It's hard to go one way, what should I do if I go two ways?"

"It's not that he's playing these brothers' tricks in Tsinghua, so Gu can still be in such a difficult situation now, regardless of the beginning and the end?"

Liu Pu bowed his head and said: "The minister has three strategies."

"The best strategy is to take both sea and land into consideration. Deploy heavy troops to defend Jing'an area to prevent the Ming army from coming by sea. In Lang Son Prefecture, the walls are clear and the country can't go in or out. With a strong city, when it's hot, the Ming army will naturally retreat. gone."

Li Yimin stood up, looked at Kanyu map and shook his head and said, "No, take care of both sea and land, and then abandon both sea and land. The Ming army has so many weapons, what is indestructible!"

"Hailongwei is nearly a hundred feet high, and there is only one road up the mountain. Isn't it smashed by the Ming army's artillery on the opposite cliff?"

Li Yimin saw with his own eyes how sharp the artillery of Haining and Lujiang was in Daming Songjiang Mansion. The Japanese pirates and the remnants of the Nanya government were torn to pieces under the artillery, and that scene is vivid in his memory.

Liu Pu continued: "I don't care about the waterway, I only care about the land way, and I put all my eggs in one basket. In Langshan, I beat the Ming army back to Zhennan Pass, and wrote to the Ming Dynasty. I, Annan, have the heart of a minister."

"My lord, if you can't get it on the battlefield, you can't get it through negotiation. The middle strategy is to seek peace through war."

Li Yimin pondered for a moment and said, "Go on."

Liu Pu raised his hand and said: "The best strategy is to make peace with the fourth brother Li Sicheng, make him the side-by-side king, appease the Tsinghua rebels, do our best to deal with the Ming's offensive, and recruit civilians to fight against the Ming army in Lang Son every step of the way, fighting for every inch of land! "

"If Langshan is defeated, we will retreat to Wanya Prefecture and Langjiang Prefecture, and if we lose again, we will retreat again!"

"It's a life-and-death fight with Da Ming. Even if you retreat to the Ruan family's Guangnan country or Siam, you have to break it into pieces and join hands with the people in the countryside to resist to the end and fight to the end!"

"The Great Ming Army worked hard to mobilize the masses, aiming to transform Annan into king. In such a bloody battle, I, Annan, suffered heavy casualties. Naturally, the Ming Dynasty was not much better, and the Ming Army retreated."

The best way to fight is to fight against bullying from outside the wall, even if there is a quarrel within the family, when facing the invasion of foreign enemies, you must join hands to resist the enemy.

Liu Pu felt that if this best policy could be implemented, the Ming army would be a heavenly soldier and general, and would fall into the quagmire of the Annan War. The quick victory would turn into a security war, and the security war would turn into a puddle of mud.

"Inappropriate!" Li Yimin's face changed drastically, he pointed at Qinghua Mansion and nodded vigorously, and said angrily: "You let Gu and Lao Si reconcile? Why don't you just kill Gu Yi now!"

"What's his fourth child! But the crown prince regained the throne. Not only was he disobedient, but he also wanted to attack and kill Gu. The attack failed, and he fled Qinghua, resisted in the corner, and refused to obey the king's order! Let Gu reconcile with him?"

Li Yimin waved his hands and said loudly: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Li Yimin once planned to reconcile with Li Sicheng and make a fortune together. Li Sicheng sent Ding Lie to negotiate. As a result, Mo Zhi, the confidant of Gongbian and Li Yimin's right-hand man, led the guards to attack and kill him, and was killed instead.

Since then, the collisions and frictions between Shenglong and Qinghua have increased day by day, causing heavy casualties. If Li Yimin reconciles with the fourth child at this time, he may be killed in Shenglong City before the reconciliation.

Li Yimin raised his head halfway and said: "Let's take the middle strategy, give up the sea route, and stick to Lang Son."

"Taiwei! How is my preparation for the Dragon Army?"

Liu Pu thought for a while and said, "Everything is going according to plan."

It's just that this plan is Liu Pu's plan to build a palace for the Ming emperor. As for where the Shenglong Army is, of course the Shenglong Army is in Shenglong City.

"That's good." Li Yimin looked at Qinghua and said suddenly: "Liu Taiwei, do you want to go to the imperial conquest and personally suppress Qinghua's rebellion, so as to prevent Qinghua from cooperating with the Ming army when it invades?" ?”

Liu Pu looked at Li Yimin blankly, is this guy serious?

To put down the rebellion of the vassal kings, in the Ming Dynasty, of course, the emperor had to personally conquest, but for Annan, this was too difficult to achieve.

Li Yimin conquered it himself, and then someone entered the palace in Shenglong City and proclaimed himself emperor.Li Yimin's throne is not secure, it is precarious and precarious, and he wants to conquer it himself?

"Inappropriate." Liu Pu said concisely and confidently: "Your Majesty, when the Ming army is defeated, it will not be too late for us to plan to pacify Qinghua. The Ming army is urgent, and Qinghua is light."

Li Yimin said with great concern: "Then if the fourth brother sneaks into Shenglong City, his life will be safe...Isn't it safe for me, the capital of King Annan?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the fourth son can't get in." Liu Pu said confidently, "The Holy Majesty is the king of Annan, and the fourth son is just a vassal king who lives in a single family. There has never been a case of rebellion by a vassal king since ancient times."

Li Yimin immediately said: "Isn't Emperor Taizong of the Ming Dynasty a rule?"

Liu Pu's face darkened in an instant. Although Li Sicheng is also the fourth child, what kind of thing is he?On a par with Emperor Taizong Wen, Li Sicheng is also worthy?

Liu Pu was so hung up on saying it directly, that he changed his tone and said, "The Holy One is not Emperor Jianwen."

"That's true." Li Yimin finally nodded in satisfaction, letting go of his worries.

After Li Yimin left Thang Long Imperial City and decided on a strategy, he naturally didn't have to stay in this horrible place.

"Has Lieutenant Liu left?" Li Yimin asked his eunuch, the eunuch looked at the door, then pulled his hem and said with a smile on his face: "Let's go, Liu Taiwei has already left."

Li Yimin straightened up immediately, pointed to a few palace maids and said, "You guys come here and play bowstring with me!"

The terrified scream of the palace maid spread far away, and just reached Liu Pu's ears.

Liu Pu sighed, shook his head heavily, walked out of the imperial city, and returned to Taiwei's mansion.

Yuan Bin and Tang Xing were playing chess under the old willow tree, and the two maids waved big cattail fans to repel mosquitoes.

"You stinky chess player, you always regret your moves, don't play anymore, don't play any more." Tang Xing saw that the game was lost, so he gave up directly, but he still refused to admit defeat.

Yuan Bin put away the chessboard and said to Liu Pu, "You're back? What is Li Yimin doing?"

Liu Pu told what he had seen and heard in the palace from beginning to end.

Tang Xing shivered suddenly, looked at Yuan Bin and asked, "If Your Majesty tied three bowstrings to you and asked someone to play you, how would you treat it?"

Yuan Bin said nonchalantly: "That's impossible, what kind of wise and powerful person is Your Majesty?"

"Besides, Your Majesty is so busy. Your Majesty will only find it boring to torture people. With that kind of time, Your Majesty might as well approve a few memorials."

"If I do something wrong, His Majesty doesn't need to do anything. I will kill myself to thank Your Majesty for His grace."

"That's true." Tang Xing replied cheerfully.

Liu Pu closed his eyes and fell silent. It was the decision he regretted the most in his life to agree to Sun Jizong's participation in the grand event. If he had been loyal to His Majesty from the beginning to the end, how could he be so angry now?Put up with an idiot like Li Yimin?What pleasure should it be to work in His Majesty's hands?

Tang Xing looked at Kanyu map, shook his head and said: "Li Yimin is going to fight Daming in Lang Son, he is really kind."

The deposed prince Li Yimin has always been very courageous, he dared to go to Songjiang Mansion to meet His Majesty as an envoy of the Annan Kingdom, and asked His Majesty to support his Gongbian, and when he returned to Shenglong City, he went straight to Gongbian and became the King of Annan, as always audacity.

Head-to-head with the Ming army, did you ask the opinions of the Wala people?The Wala people didn't even have the guts to go west. Where did Annan have the confidence?

Liu Pu shook out a piece of silk from his sleeve and said: "Lang Son's terrain is complicated, and the mountain roads are rugged. The Ming army came from a long distance, and I am afraid that some places will stumble. I have a defense map of Lang Son here, and Lang Son is marked on it. Terrain, as well as water sources, open posts and secret posts, scout patrols, etc."

"The Daming pier is far away and Hou Han is not afraid of death. As shown in the picture, it can be verified."

Yuan Bin took the picture, frowned and said, "Where did you get this thing?"

Lang Son is a battleground for military strategists. Winning Lang Son is equivalent to winning Annan. This map is a secret among secrets. After a long time of activities, they have not found out where this thing is hidden.

For example, the granary. Daming's Duntai Yuanhou sent dozens of people to surprise the granary of Lang Son's camp. What else did Annan's army in Lang Son fight?
Liu Pu pointed to the place where the seal was placed and said: "Li Yimin didn't know it was taken from Shenglong Palace."
