At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!

Chapter 39 On the Rewards for Deeds
Lian Chengbi and Guo Zhiqi saluted Sun Kewang, but they didn't have a good look at the king.

In fact, this is not surprising. Sun Kewang and the civil servants of the Yongli court simply cannot get along. Whether it is Wen Anzhi in Kuidong, or Lianchengbi and Guo Zhiqi in Guangdong and Guangxi, these civil servants are loyal to Yongli. Naturally, there is nothing to talk about between rebellious officials and thieves.

Seeing this, Zhang Hu wanted to say something, but Sun Kewang stopped him.

"Governor Lian and Bachelor Guo have worked hard in Guangdong and Guangxi and made great achievements. The king of the country came to Gaozhou to reward the heroes of Guangdong and Guangxi for their merits, not to scold them."

As soon as these words came out, Deng Yao and the others' eyes narrowed slightly. Sun Kewang's performance at this time was not the same as the image in their minds.

"Everyone, let's get straight to the point." Sun Kewang took the seat at the head of the government office, followed by Feng Shuangli, Zhang Sheng, Liancheng Bi, Deng Yao and others in turn.

"General Jing Fen."

"The last general is here!" Deng Yao stood up. Facing Sun Kewang, a big man whose strength and status were far above his own, Deng Yao naturally did not dare to disrespect him.

"My front army entered Guangdong, and your troops contributed a lot. In the battle of Shicheng, thanks to you leading the way for our front army, we were able to win a complete victory."

The official name of Sun Kewang's army is the Dianqian Army. After all, he is still only the King of Qin. It is somewhat inappropriate to call himself the Qianqian Army on this occasion. Just pay attention to this small energy saving. After all, there will be nothing missing if you pay attention. thing.

Deng Yao cupped his hands and said: "The king's words are serious. Your army in front of the palace is powerful. Even without me to lead the way, it can still easily defeat the Tatars' green soldiers."

"General Jingfen is modest." Sun Kewang smiled and said, "In the future, I plan to build naval forces in Lianzhou and Leizhou to trade with Southeast Asian countries. I hope General Jingfen can help."

"This is natural." Deng Yao said quickly.

"Okay, I won't say any more polite words." Sun Kewang said: "General Jingfen, this time I, Sun Kewang, can conquer the four prefectures of Guangdong. You and Deng Yao are indispensable. Although Qinzhou, which is under the jurisdiction of Lianzhou Prefecture, was It was given to you, but it was not enough."

"Let's do this." Sun Kewang said slowly: "Qiongzhou prefecture has thirteen counties in the three prefectures, and these sixteen prefectures and counties will allocate half of them to you, and at the same time, they will allocate [-] horses and mules to you, and one How about armor and weapons?

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere of the audience changed. Deng Yao's department did not contribute much in this battle. The tough battles were fought by Feng Shuangli and Zhang Sheng. His troops actually had a limited role, but even so, Sun Kewang still assigned them to He was given Qinzhou and half of Qiongzhou Prefecture, and was also given a large number of horses, mules, armors, and weapons. This was indeed a great favor.

"Master, thank you, General!" Deng Yao said excitedly.

With Qinzhou and half of Qiongzhou, his strength will be greatly increased, not to mention that Sun Kewang also sent a large amount of supplies, including [-] horses and mules!Coupled with other armor and other materials, these alone are enough to arm a group of cavalry and armored soldiers.

"Sun Kewang now looks completely different from what he thought before." Wang Xing and other rebel leaders had different thoughts.

In the minds of the Liang Guangyi Army, Sun Kewang was jealous, short-sighted, irritable and irritable, and was a typical treacherous minister, but now it seems that it is not the same thing.

"Huh! Win people's hearts!" Lian Chengbi, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and Guo Hou, the great scholar, sneered in their hearts.

"Okay, General Jingfen, please sit down." Sun Kewang smiled.

Deng Yao sat down with a smile on his face.

"General Ling Hai." Sun Kewang said again.

"The end is here."

A veteran with graying hair got up and saluted Sun Kewang.

Chen Qice, general of Linghai, was originally a small official in Nanhai County. Later, he joined the army and became the commander of the navy. He and Xiachuan Island were based on Shangxiachuan Island and Wang Xing was a horn of each other.

When Li Dingguo marched into Guangdong, Chen Qice was responsible for the waterway support, beheading Gai Yipeng, the general of the Qing army, and annihilating the troops of the general Guo Hu and the guerrilla Liu Liangqing.

After Li Dingguo was defeated, Chen Qice continued to resist with Wang Xing. In the battle to support Wang Xing, he used Western cannons to bombard the Qing army, killing hundreds of Qing soldiers, forcing Shang Kexi to retreat.

Historically, after Chen Qice was captured, Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao threatened and lured him and put him under house arrest for a whole year, but he did not surrender after all.

In the end, Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao decided to kill Chen Qice. General Linghai of the Ming Dynasty was sitting in dangerous attire, but he was happy to die. He wore a square scarf and a white robe, walked gracefully, sat on his bed, and was killed while laughing.

After his death, many people along the coast of Guangdong paid homage privately, but his remnants Lin Tieyao, Niu Tougang, Wang Zixin, etc. persisted in resisting the Qing Dynasty. They were not completely wiped out by the Manchu Qing until the 18th year of Kangxi. At this time, 19 years had passed since Chen Qice's death. .

Sun Kewang looked at General Ling Hai whose hair had started to turn gray and smiled.

"The old general is skilled in water warfare. In the battle of Xinhui in the past, you led the rebel navy to destroy the Tatar Guangdong Navy, killed the commander-in-chief Gai Yipeng and blocked the food route of the Xinhui defenders. If the Tatars had not lost their conscience, The common people are feeding, and with the cooperation of the old general, Gu’s brother may have conquered the entire Guangdong.”

Chen Qice said quickly: "The king's words are serious. I, Chen Qice, am just doing some things within my duties."

In fact, Sun Kewang did say something too harsh. Later generations lamented the disastrous defeat of the Jin Dynasty in the Battle of Xinhui, and blamed Zheng Chenggong for standing still in Fujian and not coming to Guangdong for support, which caused the failure of the Nanming revival plan.

However, if we look at it from another angle, Xinhui is just a county seat. Although the important location is the gateway to Guangzhou, so what if the king of Jin conquered Xinhui?

Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao's main forces were not damaged at all, Du Yonghe could defend Guangzhou for eight months, how could they not be as good as Du Yonghe with enough troops?
King Jin's tens of thousands of headquarters and rebel troops in various places in Guangdong claimed to be 20. They fought a Xinhui supported by a small number of elite soldiers for more than half a year. They beat Li Dingguo to demolish houses in Gaozhou, and the Ming army's logistics was on the verge of collapse.

Even if Zheng Chenggong came, given Zheng Jun's siege ability that failed to take down any prefectures at this time, even if Xinhui was taken down, can the two sides work together to take down Guangzhou, which is still gratifying and firmly held by Geng Jimao, in a short period of time?
Will Li Dingguo have the capital to continue this Guangzhou siege that is destined to last forever?Can Zheng Chenggong's main force stay away from their home base of Jinxia for a long time and accompany Li Dingguo to attack the strong city of Guangzhou?
In the final analysis, Li Dingguo was not strong enough, or the route was wrong. Based on Guangxi's economic foundation at that time, if it could follow Sun Kewang's route, it would rely on Guangxi's much better conditions than Yungui.

Li Dingguo didn't even need to reclaim wasteland. The chieftain of the united front, the ready-made 10,000 to [-] hectares of arable land was enough to feed [-]+ field troops, and accumulated a large amount of strategic resources for protracted warfare.

With such soldiers and horses and such food and wages, why worry about not being able to defeat Guangdong?Even if Zheng Chenggong is unwilling to cooperate, why should Jin Wang, who is already strong, look longingly at the southeast sea?

The difficulty for Li Dingguo to fight Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao with Guangxi is far lower than the difficulty for Sun Kewang to use Yunnan and Guizhou to fight against the Manchus. It is a pity that after experiencing all the kings of Jin in Yunnan, he became inexplicable after he arrived in Guangxi. Make a difference.
