While the Qiongzhou Army conquered Zhaoqing, Kunming Wuhua Mountain, Ningxia Green Camp, Xining Green Camp, Jiangxi Green Camp, Jiangning Green Camp, Han Army Zhenghuang Banner, Han Army Inlaid Yellow Banner, Mongolian Zhengbai Banner, Mongolian Inlaid Blue Banner, Manchuria Zhenglan Banner, and Manchuria Bai Banner..., surrounded the last stronghold of the Wuzhou Empire.

Wuhua Mountain Wuzhou Palace was originally a Qin Palace built by Sun Kewang, the King of Qin of Yongli Dynasty. It was not only luxurious but also easy to defend and difficult to attack. Later, Emperor Yongli moved to Dianjing and took Wuhua Mountain as his position. After Wu Sangui established a vassal of Yunnan and Guizhou, he immediately changed the Qin Palace to Pingxi Palace. After 20 years of operation, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as solid.

However, even the strongest fortresses are often breached from the inside, and the Wu Zhou regime, which is on the verge of despair, is no exception.

Kunming has been besieging the city for more than a year. Not only has the defenders on the mountain been exhausted, but the Qing army outside the city has also been infected with the epidemic due to the unique climate in Yunnan, and has been infected with the epidemic one after another. In addition, the Qing Dynasty has been using troops for years and food and wages have not been maintained. The conflicts within the Qing army in besieging the city have also begun to appear. Under such circumstances, the guards of the mountain continue to defend and the Qing army attacking the mountain continues to surround, and the two sides are still in a stalemate.

The pseudo-Qing Emperor Kangxi, who had always focused on Kunming, learned that Kunming City could not be captured for a long time, was furious. In order to fail in defense, he issued seven edicts in succession, asking Yue Le and Zhangtai to pacify Kunming as soon as possible.

In order to take down Wuhua Mountain and completely eliminate the Wu Zhou regime that had plagued him for eight years. In order to mobilize troops to Guangdong and Guangxi as soon as possible, to deal with the traitor Zhixin, the pseudo-long-haired Ming thief, who had just emerged, Kangxi personally issued an order to ask Yue Le to search the people of Yunnan as cannon fodder for attacking the mountain. Even if they were to build corpses and top, they had to take down Wuhua Mountain, the pseudo-zhou imperial palace, as soon as possible.

Zhao Liangdong, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou who moved from western Yunnan to Kunming strictly implemented Kangxi's orders. Under his leadership, the Qing army inhumanely arrested and captured 150,000 people in the twelve counties and six prefectures, a total of 150,000 people to Wuhua Mountain, and then pushed them to the battlefield without humanity.

There was no room for negotiation. After the people of several counties were recruited to Kunming recently, Zhao Liangdong issued a total order. The people had to fight and dared not fight, because those who were unwilling to fight were cut off by the Qing soldiers and then hung high on the flagpole, and their wives and daughters became tools for the animals to vent their animal desires.

There is still a glimmer of life in the rush. If you do not obey the command of the Qing army, you and your family will all die. The Qing soldiers promised that as long as you break Mount Wuhua, the living people can return home on their own.

In order to survive, or to be able to bring your daughter, sisters or parents home, the people who were threatened by the Qing army leader's sword, they poured into the Wuhua Mountain defense line all over the mountains.

Cannons, guns, rolling woods, and rocks kept flying and rolling around them, and the people without any defensive equipment fell on the way to charge in batches.

People kept getting shots and falling to the ground, and people were constantly climbing upwards were hit by cannons. The rolling wood about a meter long swept a large area, and the heads were even more blooming, and the body was covered with splashes of blood and brains. The headless bodies even took another step forward according to inertia before falling heavily on the hillside.

The Zhou army obviously discovered the Qing army's large-scale attack. Although there were all people on the hillside that could not be seen at a glance, they still wanted to kill them all because they didn't know if there were any of these people mixed with the Qing army. Their only way was to kill all of these people.

One round, two rounds, three rounds, as the continuous people were escorted to the foot of Wuhua Mountain, the Qing army's offensive became more and more fierce. Zhao Liangdong had made up his mind to pave a passage to Wuhua Mountain with the lives of 150,000 people.

In just half a month, nearly 100,000 people in Yunnan fell on the way to attack the mountain, but the effect of driving people to attack the mountain was also significant, because the death of these 100,000 people also consumed all the equipment of the Wu Zhou defender, and also exhausted the courage of the Wu Zhou defender.

At this point, all officials from Wu and Zhou, from Emperor Wu Shifan, knew that the Great Zhou Kingdom was really going to perish.

The so-called country is about to perish, there must be evil. The main general of Wu Zhou, led by the admiral of Guangdong and Guangxi, the admiral of Wu Guozhu, the auxiliary general Wu Shiji, the commander of the Imperial Guard, the commander of the Imperial Guard, the commander of the Yunnan general He Jinzhong, and the main general of Wu Zhou, led by the right prime minister Lin Tianqing, finally lost the courage to resist in desperate situations.

But they were all the culprits named by the Qing court. At this time, the first thing that came to mind was not to surrender to the Qing army, but to evacuate Wuhua Mountain as soon as possible.

In Wuzhou Palace, Wu Shifan, the 16-year-old Emperor Wu Zhou, looked at the princes and ministers who had kneeled all over the ground with miserable eyes. His three-year imperial career made him feel indescribable vicissitudes on his face.

"Your Majesty, the imperial city's food and salary have been exhausted, and the pseudo-Qing soldiers are becoming more and more powerful. Our Great Zhou is really at the end of our lives. I think Your Majesty should move immediately and go to southern Yunnan or western Yunnan, and then plan for the next plan."

Lin Linqing was Wu Sangui's confidant and one of the most trusted disciples of the former governor of the six provinces of the Qing Dynasty. For the sake of his wealth and life, he was the first to propose a breakthrough.

"Break through? How to break through? Hundreds of thousands of Qing troops surrounded the mountains. According to the news conveyed by the Qing army, Marshal Ma and General Hu's military career have been defeated. The world is so great. I still have a place to stay? Instead of fleeing in panic, I would rather die to serve the ancestral temple."

The lonely city has been trapped for more than a year, and the Wu and Zhou army suffered numerous casualties. At that time, there were only less than 4,000 troops left on the mountain. In Wu Shifan's view, breaking through is no different from the way to death. And even if you break through by luck, how can you escape the pursuit of the Qing army?

"Your Majesty, although the pseudo-Qing controls Yunnan, the defenders of Anning, Jinning, Kunyang and Chenggong counties are still dedicated to our Great Zhou. The reason why we can persist for so long is entirely due to the local defenders' delivery of food and food to us. Wuhua Mountain connects Kunming Lake. If we go through water, we may not be unable to break the Qing army's blockade."

The line was the youngest son of the former Guangxi admiral Guoan. After Wu Sangui started the incident, the generals of Guangxi responded. The line Guoan, who was also the Han army flag, also joined Wu. Guoan died of illness in the back line. The line that insisted on anti-Qing was highly valued by Wu Sangui. The line of Wuhua Mountain was controlled by him.

Seeing that the line was about to retreat, Wu Shiji, Wu Guozhu and others also agreed. The Central Army General He Jinzhong even said passionately that the Wu and Zhou army could follow the previous Ming Dynasty and retreat to western Yunnan, so that the ancestral temple could be preserved.

"Shut up! Although I am young, I am not aware of military affairs. Since this year, after Zhao Liangdong arrived in Kunming, the Qing army has strengthened the blockade of Kunming Lake. How can you all the generals be sure to break through the encirclement and flee to western Yunnan? Do you want me to imitate Emperor Yongli? I don't want to be tied to Kunming by the natives and then untied them to the capital and become a prisoner of Kang Mazi. The king dies in the country. Let me listen to you. I am not a coward. Even if I die, I will die in Kunming and in front of the spirits of the ancestors."
