Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 653: Always defeated like a mountain

At the beginning of May, Sun Kewang rushed back to Guiyang to count the troops and horses. When he left the army, there were 140,000 Pixiu, and only 156 horses remained.

"I have been alone all my life, but I didn't expect to be defeated so miserably!" The hero looked up to the sky and sighed.

"My lord, the most important thing at the moment is to arrange the defense of Guizhou. You can order Feng Shuangli to lead troops to guard the main road of Weiqing and prevent the enemy from pursuing." Fang Yuxuan offered his advice.

"Well, I ordered Feng Shuangli to lead troops to guard the Weiqing main road, and agreed with him that if Liu Wenxiu's pursuers arrived, he would fire three cannons to report the news. Feng Shuangli has been in battle for a long time and should be able to hold on for a while," Sun Kewang sighed.

"Lord of the country, I request to send an envoy to defend the country, and ask the Lord of the Guard to send troops to rescue", Ren Zhen volunteered.

"Alas! The in-laws are more cunning than a loach. It's difficult for him to send troops to help! The old gentleman can just do his best." Sun Kewang sighed.

"Yes, Lord." Ren Zanshen bowed and left for Lhasa.

The Weiqing main road is the main road from Guiyang to Shuixi. In the Ming Dynasty, Weiqing guards were set up here. If you want to capture Guiyang, you must come from this road. General Feng Shuangli, who built the main road in Weiqing, was an old man in the Daxi Army. Zhang Xianzhong was one of the five commanders of the Daxi Army at the time. He was originally a general of Ai Nengqi. After Ai Nengqi's death, he actively supported Sun Kewang and was named King of Xing'an. But now seeing Sun Kewang defeated so miserably and losing all his main force, he couldn't help but have strange thoughts.

"Sir, King Jin has sent someone. As long as you are willing to surrender, he is willing to go to His Majesty and make you King Qingyang. You are a king with the king, and you will still be a king after you return to the Ming Dynasty." Report.

"Alas! I have been friends with the king for many years, and I really can't bear to take action against my old master!" Feng Shuangli sighed.

"Since you are unwilling to attack the country with weapons, why not scare him away? Didn't the king agree with you that if the pursuers arrive, he will fire three cannons to report the news? You can fire three cannons to scare the king away. In this way, there is no need We are ready to use weapons against the old initiative." His friends offered advice.

"This is a brilliant plan!" Feng Shuangli nodded in agreement and ordered three cannons to be fired on the city wall along the main road of Weiqing.

"Boom~boom~boom~" The sound of three cannons was heard directly from the Weiqing main road to Guiyang City.

"Why did Bai Wenxuan come so fast!" Sun Kewang was shocked. He was so frightened that he had no time to distinguish the truth from the truth, and hurriedly took his wife, children and entourage out of the city and ran eastward. Along the way, we passed through Xintianwei, Pianqiao, Zhenyuan, Pingxi, and Yuanzhou. "All the guards closed their camps and refused to accept them." Hope; and there are those who should not.” The once arrogant "lord" betrayed his relatives and became a bereaved dog.

Because of their haste to escape, Fan Kuang, Ma Zhaoxi, Wan Niance and other civil servants were separated. Ren Zhen went to Lhasa to bring reinforcements to Emperor Qianyuan. The only people around him who could be consulted were Fang Yuxuan, Yang Xingxian, Zheng Guo, and Cheng Wanli. He said to his subordinates: "Now that Li Dingguo has humiliated me so much, I do not hesitate to surrender to a foreign country. Let us all discuss whether it is better to surrender to the Wei or to the Qing?"

"The king of the country and David are related by marriage, and there is no need to shave your hair and change clothes when surrendering to the guard. You should surrender to the guard," Zheng Guo persuaded.

"I heard that it is extremely difficult for Wei to be crowned king. If you surrender to Wei, you probably won't be crowned king, but if you surrender to Qing, you can be crowned king." Cheng Wanli advocated surrendering to Qing.

"Master of the country, I think we should first find a place to live in peace and quiet and observe the conditions offered by Wei and Qing. Whichever side is more generous, we will submit to whichever side," Fang Yuxuan suggested.

"You are right, but now that I have become a homeless dog, where can I find shelter?" Sun Kewang asked helplessly.

"Jingzhou Road Wu Fengsheng has always been loyal to you, you can go to Jingzhou," Fang Yuxuan replied.

"Wu Fengsheng?" Sun Kewang was silent. Wu Fengsheng turned out to be his true confidant, but he was outspoken by nature. After falling out with Li Dingguo, he kept urging him to negotiate peace with Li Dingguo, but his advice was unfavorable to his ears. He was promoted and secretly demoted by him, and was sent far away to Jingzhou. Now that the situation is over, many of his former confidants and subordinates have betrayed him. What if Wu Fengsheng is dissatisfied and kidnaps himself to ask for credit from Li Dingguo? These days, Sun Kewang has been numbed by betrayal. He has lost trust in his subordinates and dare not go. "The leader of the country can first send people to Jingzhou to test the reaction, leaving the family members far away without dismounting. If Wu Fengsheng has malicious intentions, he can just gallop away." Fang Yuxuan offered his advice.

Sun Kewang finally nodded and ventured to Jingzhou. Not long after the envoy was dispatched, he saw a group of men and horses galloping out of the city, fully armored and in high spirits.

"Not good!" He was shocked when he saw this, and turned his horse to leave. Unexpectedly, the war horse was so tired that it could not move its legs.

"My life is at stake!" The king sighed secretly in his heart, drinking from his neck and waiting to be killed.

This group of men and horses arrived in a blink of an eye, and the leader was Wu Fengsheng, a gentleman and a native of Zhongshushe, Jingzhou Road.

"Your Majesty, Wu Fengsheng, comes to see the Lord." Wu Fengsheng got off his horse and saluted respectfully, but he was not here to capture him, but to welcome him.

Sun Kewang felt ashamed and followed Wu Fengsheng into the city to rest. Following Fang Yuxuan's plan, he sent Cheng Wanli to Huguang to discuss the surrender of the Qing Dynasty, and Fang Yuxuan to Lhasa to discuss the surrender of the Wei Dynasty. He even wrote two surrender forms, intending to defect to whichever side offered the higher price. The poor and dignified king can only wait silently like goods in the hands of merchants to the highest bidder.

In a letter to the Qing court, he said: "Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu and others were treasonous and unruly, poisoning all living beings. But Master Wangxing questioned the crime, but he was deceived. I beg the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty to send you 10,000 cavalry, and I am willing to offer Yunnan and Guizhou." , Shu will be reunited, and even more revenge will be eternal." After receiving the letter, Zhang Changgeng, the governor of Qinghu and Guangzhou, reported to the court: "The great rebel Sun Kewang Hu is in Yunnan and Guizhou, and he has commanded Zhang District Yu. Over the years, he has paid for his troops and used Zhang to conquer. Today, he killed the most vicious man, killed himself in defeat, and begged for conversion. It is a blessing from heaven to share the blessings of the emperor with the southern frontiers without laboring and attacking."

In a letter written to his in-laws, the Davidic Emperor Suletan, he also said: "I would like to dedicate the land of the three provinces to the Davidic Dynasty. I only ask for permission to send troops for revenge, wipe out the ugly people, and unify the rule."

The word "revenge" appears most often in the two letters, which shows how deeply Sun Kewang hated Li Dingguo and others.
-
In the Qianyuan Hall of the Potala Palace in Lhasa, after receiving Sun Kewang's letter, Suletan laughed happily and said to the officials: "It seems that my in-laws are really anxious. We have a good opportunity to unify Yun, Gui, and Sichuan." Come!" A few days ago, Sun Kewang sent Ren Zun to ask for help. He deliberately delayed and refused to send reinforcements. Sun Kewang was a hero in the world and would not sincerely surrender until the mountains and rivers were exhausted. Today, the time is finally ripe!
"Your Majesty can make Sun Kewang the Duke of Qin to collect his followers," Chief Assistant Batu Hetan said.

Suletan nodded and was about to agree. Liu Haogu, a great scholar, said: "Sun Kewang has great ambitions and cannot be satisfied without being granted the title of king. Please grant him the title of King of Qin."

"Be crowned king?"

Suletan was stunned, thought for a long time, and said slowly: "The King of Qin will be the King of Qin. If I can get the land of three provinces, why should I cherish a mere prince?"

"Even if Sun Kewang is granted the title of King of Qin, I'm afraid he will not be able to surrender to David," Hu Lianqi, the censor of Youdu, suddenly lamented.

"Eh? Why is this? Hu Qing tries to explain." Sultan was surprised.

"Sun Kewang has fled to Hunan, which is close to the Qing and Ming countries and far away from my own country. If the Ming army cuts off his route to surrender, he will only have one way to surrender to the Qing Dynasty."

After hearing this, Suletan looked gloomy, stared at the map in the palace, and remained silent for a long time.
