Ma Xin's words immediately aroused the praises of the generals in the tent. The Ming army of Jiangsu and Zhejiang was the military and political group they served. Everyone was gradually promoted by Chen Wen from the end. Even Ma Xin was an ordinary military general who had no official backing in the green camp in Zhejiang. Now they are all under their command of thousands of famous generals and commanders. The hereditary military positions and military merits of the Ming army of Jiangsu and Zhejiang are also the ones that benefit the most. They naturally hope that this army will become stronger and stronger, and Chen Wen's status will become higher and higher, and they can also rise.

Listening to this talk and looking at the eyes of Qi Zhi, he had already stepped outside the gate of Guizhou. After passing Guizhou, it would be Yunnan. There was Yongli's journey. At this moment, Yongli was under his command, only Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu and tens of thousands of Southwest Ming troops, and his combat effectiveness may not be higher than Sun Kewang's former army.

"Maybe, they can really be taken away. Zhu Yuanzhang was like this, and I can do this."

In the first battle, he defeated a famous general like Li Dingguo, and then forced the Emperor of Ming to abdicate, thus establishing a new dynasty and improving politics. Desire arose in his heart, but in the next second, he was suppressed by Chen Wen.

His overall strength is indeed the strongest person south of the Yangtze River. Even if he eliminates the Qing Dynasty, it will be only a matter of time before he can eliminate the current momentum. If he really does that, he will only be struggling in the south for a few years, with the Kuidong Ming army in the mountains of Kuidong and western Hubei, Zheng Chenggong, who is limited to the island, with internal opposition parties such as Zhang Huangyan, and perhaps Li Dingguo who will be driven to the border and Yongli who will hunt south of Myanmar...

However, if that day really comes, will there be tens of thousands of troops to encircle and suppress the mountainous areas of Kuidong, and those who surrender will avoid death. Those who do not surrender will also kill men, women, young and old on Maolu Mountain; do you also need to move the boundary and ban the sea on the southeast coast, and kill millions of people, just to curb the supplies and commodities obtained by the Zheng group from the coastal areas; do you also need to pull Zhang Huangyan to the Jiaobifang in Hangzhou to behead him; do you also need to drive Li Dingguo to the bank of the Lancang River, causing him to die in depression, and finally shouted the saying "I would rather die and pay for it in vain than surrender"?

At that time, should I force Myanmar to hand over the Yongli period, and then a general strangled him to death on the slope with a bowstring?!

"Perhaps because it was the change of dynasty of the Han family, not the barbarians stealing China, there may not be so many heroes who choose to rather die than surrender, such as the remnants of the Dashun Army in Kuidong, and most of the generals in the Daxi Army. As for these bandits, without the defense of the barbarians and Xia, there will be a few loyal people like Li Dingguo in the simple Han people. But if I really kill all my opponents like that, what's the difference between it and the Qing Dynasty that I have been trying to eliminate over the years?"

Many of the chronic diseases of the Ming Dynasty cannot be solved within the system, but internal strife can still be avoided. Taking a deep breath, the sweetness of temptation dissipated in my heart, and Chen Wen, who had regained his firmness, silently said to himself in his heart: "I have been enduring the gentry's scolding, so why don't I try to create a better future? So since that's the case, why should I rush for this moment?"

After regaining his determination, Chen Wen also returned to the rhythm required by the original plan. The review of the captured personnel and the sorting of seized materials were all responsible for these matters. While Chen Wen was entertaining the captured officers, he was waiting for follow-up news from the cavalry and the arrival of more prisoners. Of course, what was more important was that the Qin vassal army had been wiped out, and now it was the best opportunity to enter Guizhou in large numbers.

The next morning, Chen Wen, after giving the captured auxiliary soldiers a full meal, distributed dry food for several days and released them all.

These people do not have the ability to threaten the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Instead of wasting food here, it is better to give them some food and dry food to persuade them to return home on their own. It is more in line with Chen Wen's interests.

Compared with auxiliary soldiers, it is impossible for the soldiers to be released just like this. Chen Wen took these soldiers to the hinterland of the nobles after repairing them for a day. However, Chen Wen did not deprive the soldiers of the soldiers before, but just confiscated weapons, armor and other items that are likely to threaten the soldiers of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Ming Army. As the auxiliary soldiers were released with their own eyes, Qin Fan's soldiers were relieved when they received news of waiting for the order to be released.

After all, everyone is the Ming army, and the interests of the upper class have a great relationship with their soldiers. Even the middle and high-level officers of the Qin vassal were not without opponents of Sun Kewang's actions, otherwise there would be no Sun Kewang invasion in Yunnan in history. As a result, once the real sword and gun were launched, a large number of senior officers led by Bai Wenxuan played the trick of uprising in front of the formation. Sun Kewang, who had previously led an army of 140,000 out of Guizhou, could only take more than 100 family members, confidants and guards to Huguang and surrender to Hong Chengchou for the eternal news.

As the army set off, Chen Wen led the three divisions of Yuzhang, Yuyao and Siming. Now the momentum of defeating the 140,000 troops has emerged. What remains will be sporadic small-scale combat and political games. The Danyang Division can recover all the prefectures and counties in southern Huguang that are still under Sun Kewang's subordinates in the hands of Sun Kewang in addition to leaving a part of the guards here, so as to avoid the possibility of such an annoying thing on the map.

"Without having nothing to do, can Duke E of the Kingdom of E be willing to talk to me about the mountains and rivers of Guizhou?"

"A general who defeated the army dares not be called such a title by His Highness King Yue."

Ma Jinzhong, the prey of E Kingdom, nicknamed Hunten Ten Thousand, was born as a bandit in Shaanxi in the Chongzhen Dynasty. Later, he was defeated and surrendered to Zuo Liangyu. However, when Zuo Liangyu died and Zuo Menggeng surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Ma Jinzhong and Wang Yuncheng, who was known as Wang Ma, ran to Huguang to follow He Tengjiao. They did not surrender to the Qing army like Zhang Yong, Li Guoying, and Jin Shenghuan.

Next, Wang Yuncheng surrendered to the Qing Dynasty for a while, and Ma Jinzhong always served the Ming army on the Huguang battlefield. Later, Li Dingguo's Guilin victory, Kong Youde also had the idea of ​​surrendering to the Ming army through the relationship between Wang Yuncheng and Ma Jinzhong. However, in the next Hengyang victory, as the chief general of a side division responsible for intercepting the Qing army, after discovering that another chief general Feng Shuangli was ordered to withdraw Sun Kewang and retreat, Ma Jinzhong also chose to withdraw, and the Hengyang victory failed to win all his achievements in this battle.

However, this person was not Sun Kewang's best friend. If it were not for Chen Wen's extravagance, Sun Kewang would have invaded Yunnan within the group of senior officers who revolted in front of the formation, and he, Ma Jinzhong, would have been missing from the group of senior officers who revolted in front of the formation, especially when he had been enthroned by Sun Kewang as King of Jiading before.

Chen Wen called Duke E and used the title of title enthroned by the Yongli court. With this title, Ma Jinzhong breathed a sigh of relief. Chen Wen obviously had no intention of killing him.

"His Highness of the King of Yue is the prince of the state, but if you have any questions, you will always be aware of everything."

Hearing this, Chen Wen nodded and then asked Ma Jinzhong: "I heard that Guizhou is not three feet wide, the sky is not three days sunny, and people are not three cents of silver. Is there such a thing?"

What Chen Wen said is the description of Guizhou by people from other provinces. The first two sentences say that the weather is harsh, unpredictable, the mountains and roads are rugged, and there are few plains. The weather and geographical conditions are as good as this. The latter sentence is that under such an objective environment, the poverty of Guizhou has long been caused.

Whether in modern times or ancient times, the plains are more suitable for agricultural production. In this way, in Jiangnan, Huguang also said that "Huguang is familiar and the world is full", which means that Henan's grain output was not small before the chaos in the late Ming Dynasty. However, Guizhou was the only province in China without plains as a support. Before the development of tourism in later generations, poverty was almost inevitable.

"When you return to His Highness King Yue, you can use what you have seen and heard in Guizhou over the years. Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it can also be regarded as the word "fitting reality."

"It's true."

After receiving a definite answer, Chen Wen sighed and then said to Ma Jinzhong: "I have heard that I hope to govern the country well and use troops to establish the country. If the two of them work together, it may not be an imagination to restore the old view of the Emperor Ming. King Jin was two famous kings that year, which attracted the attention of the main force of the Tartars. I also benefited him. Looking at it now, Sun Kewang supports the 200,000 army with Yunnan and Guizhou, and that words may not be all lies."

Chen Wen was moved, but Ma Jinzhong was confused. The day before yesterday, the two armies were standing in Yuanzhou and were having a lot of fun. Now it seems that His Royal Highness, King Yue, seems to be a little emotional, or even regretful. What does this mean?

However, after sighing for Nan Ming in history, Chen Wen quickly returned to the original topic. Just looking at Ma Jinzhong's random thoughts, he had to express his attitude first so that he could continue to say the following words.

"Sun Kewang has been under house arrest in recent years, harming loyal and kind-hearted, and doing things against each other. This time, I want to ask for an order to execute him. However, a good general like Duke of E who could reject the Tartars and turn south to serve the king's army should have been deceived by Sun Ni. I wonder if what I said is, or not?"

With Chen Wen's words, Ma Jinzhong still didn't understand what Chen Wen meant. Even after a burst of gratitude, he expressed great agreement with Chen Wen's view.

This was a smart man, otherwise he would not have survived the frequent internal strife in the Southern Ming Dynasty. He grew bigger and bigger from a former bandit under Zuo Liangyu, and later he was enthroned by Yongli as King of Hanyang. Seeing this, Chen Wen hinted to him that he would divide part of the prisoners of the warriors and hand them over to Ma Jinzhong to restore his losses in the battle in Yuanzhou.

"Duke E is a great commander, loyal to him for many years and is also a trustworthy military general. I heard that there are always treacherous slanders in the court who are framed by me. If Duke E is willing in the future, he should make a good statement for me before me."

Chen Wen clearly did not intend to annex Ma Jinzhong's troops, which did not conform to his usual style, and it really made Ma Jinzhong puzzled. However, since Chen Wen was willing to help him restore his strength, he still had to say this scene. As for what he would do in the future, Ma Jinzhong did not dare to think too much. After all, the court is the King of Jin Bingzheng now. Who knows if he still remembers the hatred of not sending troops in Hengyang in the battle.

The two had a great time talking. With Chen Wen's guarantee, especially returning all the personal soldiers among the captives to him, Ma Jinzhong also truly achieved the fullest knowledge he said.

The army marched towards the hinterland of Guizhou, but some people rushed there earlier than them - not the captured auxiliary soldiers who were released, nor the defeated soldiers who had not been captured, but a large number of cavalry from the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were still chasing the enemy. Among them, Shen Jiabao's team was biting a big fish at this moment.

"No, this Dian horse is too enduring. Brother Xiao, you are also from Dalan Mountain. When you go back, you react with it. In addition to this Mongolian horse, you will also give us a Dian horse, running on the mountain road and running a long road. This Dian horse is much stronger than a Mongolian horse, and even if it is transportation, it is better."

Originally, they chased the officer all the way west, but who knew that they had lost it before they chased. However, after chasing this, the deputy captain next to Shen Jiabao was an officer who was not taken away at night. From the horseshoe marks left on the ground, it was confirmed that a small team of cavalry had passed by no more than half an hour ago, and there were probably one and a half officers.

It was lost and harvested in the east. With this idea, their cavalry team chased after them without even resting for a while. As a result, there was indeed a fish, and a big fish, a big fish that was too big to hold them to death.

"Don't think about this, think about it yourself. This time our Jiangsu and Zhejiang Kings Division will fight the Tartars first, and then go south to serve the king. Huguang has already obtained it. Not to mention Guizhou, it is also a big territory. There are a lot of war horses just for expanding the army. How could we give us two horses?"

He quickly fed Zhanma a handful of fried noodles with salt. Zhanma greedily ate all the extra meals in Shen Jiabao's hand, and couldn't help but lick Shen Jiabao's hand, making sure to lick all the slags clean before making a satisfying neigh.

"The people in front have already begun to divide some people into intercepting them. It depends on the will to fight to the death and the outfit on their bodies. We must be sure that it is a big fish. If we have the intention, we should continue chasing them, don't let him run away."

After chasing for a few days, he was trapped in the crowd. Shen Jiabao wanted to give up the pursuit several times, but he still chased him. After all, he still longed to make greater contributions to win his wife and son. As he chased him to this cavalry today, except for the military orders, there is no other way around.

"Little brother, I think we're almost done."

After saying this, the officer pointed to the horse manure he had just fiddled with and said to Shen Jiabao: "Look, this group of people has been serving with specialized grooms and auxiliary soldiers for a long time. The war horses must have not brought dry food and spare horse materials at the moment. Just say that there is only the residue of weeds left in the horse manure, and this lump of war horses has begun to get diarrhea, and they can't hold on for long."

Hearing this, Shen Jiabao didn't care about continuing to rest. He stepped on the war horse and shouted: "Brothers, have you heard it? The great achievements are right in front of him, don't let them run away!"

The intercepting troops widened the gap between them, but the physical strength of the war horses comes from better horse feed, especially food. The physical strength of the war horses that only eat hay cannot keep up, not to mention that the war horses they followed have now fallen to the point where they can only eat weeds.

After chasing forward for two days, as the number of fallen horses that were seen along the way continued to increase, Shen Jiabao and others also got closer and closer to their target. Until they finally chased a deserted village, they saw only the big fish and two personal soldiers hiding in a room without a roof, and they became so excited that they could not control themselves when they saw them rushing in.
