Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 675 Not necessarily an opportunity
However, after seeing the expression of the messenger, everyone secretly thought something was wrong.If it was good news, how could the messenger's expression be one of fear!

The flattery that had already been stored up in the stomach could not be photographed immediately; those who were still thinking of grabbing the official position also died down; and the smile on his face, King Long, also froze on his face, and finally disappeared without a trace no trace.

They couldn't figure it out, the situation was so good, how could there be bad news?
"Report!" Seeing that King Long was at the gate of the city, the messenger did not dare to rush into the king's car. He rolled his saddle and fell off his horse when he got a little farther away. I personally conquered Yunnan, and the coalition army of chieftains was defeated. My Dongwu army was also completely wiped out..."

This news was unexpected by everyone here. He, Prince Long, opened his mouth wide in surprise and asked with an incredulous look: "What, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is going on a personal expedition? How is it possible that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty came to such a far away borderland?" Landed?"

He really couldn't understand why Dongwu's army could not defeat the Ming army in the past, but finally occupied Mengyang and Mubang?

It is because the court of the Ming Dynasty didn't care about these frontier lands at all, so Dongwu won without victory, and the Ming Dynasty was defeated without defeat!

But now, is the Ming Emperor fully fed?How come you have traveled thousands of miles to come to such a wild place?

King Long feels that this news, no matter from which angle it is understood, seems to be false.However, reason told him that it was impossible for the messenger to report false news.Especially such important news, it is even more impossible to have false information.

Thinking this way, before the messenger could reply, he sternly asked again: "Where is Tai Taitun, what about others?"

If you want to know the details, you will definitely not be able to explain them by relying on a messenger. You can only ask the trusted generals he sent out. Only in this way can you know what happened in Yunnan?
"Return to the king!" The messenger hurriedly replied, "General Tai Taitun has fled back and is on his way back to Ava. He is worried that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty will personally march, so let the villain rush to report to the king, and hope that the king will make preparations." Say that the current emperor of the Ming Dynasty is a villain who will take revenge, and he will probably lead the army to attack me, Dongwu!"

Obviously, Tai Taitun didn't tell the truth and didn't dare to tell King Long about his capture.Therefore, when it was reported to King Talong, the relevant situation was tampered with by him.

When King Long heard this, he was taken aback again.Yunnan is already a borderland of the Ming Dynasty, a wild place, and Dongwu is even further away from the Ming Dynasty.The emperor of the Ming Dynasty will come to fight Dongwu, how is this possible!

At this moment, he was suddenly worried.This bad news made him sober up a lot.

In the past, Liu Ting and Deng Zilong, the Yunnan generals of the Ming Dynasty, all went directly to Awa, and the Awa guards were so frightened that they opened the door and surrendered.Because of such incidents, King Long moved his capital because he was a little worried that he was too close to the Ming Kingdom, and he dared not use Ava as his capital again.

Today, if the emperor of the Ming Dynasty personally conquered Dongwu, the elite level and the number of the Ming army would definitely be far from what Liu Ting and Deng Zilong had in those days.

Thinking of this, King Long's forehead began to sweat.I didn't expect that I was old, and I would suffer the most serious setback, and my reputation would be ruined in one day?
"The majestic emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who sits on the four seas and has a boundless territory, would he mind what happened in such a borderland?" King Long thought for a while, and said in disbelief, "No matter how hard he is, it is impossible to get revenge. Will the imperial commander personally conquer Dongwu? This has never happened before, not even their Taizu and Chengzu have ever done anything like this!"

If the messenger told that the emperor would send a general to attack Dongwu, he would probably believe it, but if the emperor came to such a poor place, would he have nothing to do?Isn't the three thousand beauties in the harem not fun?Are you crazy?
The courtiers on the side also heard sweat on their foreheads, and when they didn't know what to say, suddenly, they heard a voice shouting loudly: "Father, I, Dongwu, are extremely powerful. If the dog emperor of Ming Dynasty dares to come If I, Dongwu, take advantage of this opportunity to destroy the dog emperor of the Ming Dynasty, swallow the Ming Kingdom, and achieve the fame of the father and king!"

These words are really harsh to hear. If it were an ordinary minister, he, King Long, would probably be angry.But these words were spoken by his son, so King Talong turned to look at his son who was making an impassioned speech beside him, with a gloomy look on his face.

Before he had time to say anything, he heard his son Ping Dali continue to make an impassioned statement: "I, Dongwu, have lived under the national policy of my father to recuperate and recuperate for nearly 20 years. As long as the dog emperor of the Ming Dynasty dares to come to Dongwu, they are not familiar with the terrain. Dongwu Mountain is high and densely forested, and soldiers and horses can be ambushed everywhere. Otherwise, our Dongwu army can use the terrain to detour behind the Ming army and cut off the Ming country's grain road, so that the more Ming troops come, the faster they will die..."

Hearing his son there, talking passionately and impassionedly, he, King Long, listened, and his face suddenly became better again.

He suddenly thought: Yes, does he need to be so afraid of the Ming Emperor?Based on the terrain here in Dongwu, it would be a good thing if the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty really wanted to conquer it in person!
The emperor of the Ming Dynasty led troops here, and the more troops he brought, the more he would require for food, grass and supplies.As long as the walls and plains were cleared in the north of Dongwu, the Ming army would have no food and grass to plunder, and had to bring food and grass from Yunnan.On the other side of Yunnan, there has just been a war that has affected the whole of Yunnan, and food and grass must also be tight.

In this way, as his clever son said, as long as Dongwu takes advantage of the terrain to rob the Ming Dynasty of food and grass, the more Ming troops come, the faster they will collapse!Even if the Ming army has no combat power, it will not be able to exert [-]% of its capabilities by then!
Thinking of this, King Long's eyes slowly lit up.If the emperor of the Ming Dynasty really led the army to attack Dongwu, this might really be an opportunity for him, King Long, to reach the pinnacle of his life!

Thinking of this, his face became much better, and he immediately gave an order: "Go, go back and discuss the matter!"

The so-called general is the courage of soldiers, and for the same reason, his attitude towards King Long will also greatly affect his subjects.With the son's generous statement and the king's optimism, these ministers thought it was very reasonable, so they were not so afraid that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty would really have to personally conquer Dongwu. They began to think about this matter in their hearts, and followed behind him, King Long, to go to Dongwu. Ava's palace has gone to discuss matters.

This was a big deal. After he, King Long, changed out of his hunting gear, all the civil servants and military officers under his command had arrived. They were all packed with heads.

As soon as King Talong sat down, his son Ping Dali took the first step, stepped out, and played to King Talong: "Father, my son thinks that if the emperor of the Ming Dynasty dares to attack me, Dongwu, it will be a gift from God." Give me Dongwu a good chance, as long as I defeat the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, even if I don’t send troops to attack the Ming Kingdom, it will be powerful enough to shake the world and become the overlord of one party!"

Having said that, he paused, took the opportunity to glance at the civil servants and generals, and then continued to speak: "Besides, whether it is defeating or capturing the emperor of the Ming country, it is enough to make the Ming country terrified. In this case, the father should propose The request for territory and property, considering that Ming has what it has, naturally it will not be stingy."

Hearing his emotional speech, some ministers who came over unexpectedly and did not listen to what he said at the city gate were a little worried and went out to report: "My king, what the prince said is indeed reasonable, but this is going to happen in the future." Only by defeating the Emperor of Ming will it bring enough benefits to Dongwu. But if...if the Emperor of Ming cannot be defeated, the army will overwhelm the territory and Dongwu will be in danger!"

After hearing this, Pingdali glanced at him contemptuously, then turned to him and said to King Long: "Father, my son is willing to lead the army and fight to the death with the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. If you lose, come and see me!"

After all, Prince Long is no longer a passionate young man, and is still quite cautious when facing decisions.After he pondered for a moment, he did not agree to Pindali, but consulted the important ministers in the court. After comprehensive consideration, he issued an order to let all civil and military officials prepare for war, and at the same time urgently ordered Tai Taitun to return to Ava as soon as possible. , report the details about the Ming army so that he can make the final decision.

As soon as this decree was issued, the entire Dongwu began to prepare for battle.Where the decree reaches, chickens and dogs jump around, the army is ordered to recruit strong men, and all tribes are required to pay for money, food and people.

Three days later, Tai Taitun rushed to Ava City in a state of embarrassment. He did not go anywhere else and went directly to the palace to see King Long. As soon as they met, he burst into tears: "My king, the last general must die." , the loss of soldiers and generals has weakened Dongwu’s national prestige, weakened the reputation of my king, and made the emperor of the Ming Dynasty look down on my king. The last general deserves to die..."

"That's enough. How is the battle going?" Prince Long asked with a gloomy face.

At this time, Ping Dali heard the news and rushed over. Seeing this scene, he also sternly shouted at Tai Taitun: "How many troops and horses did the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty bring, and what is their combat power?"

Tai Taitun did not dare to neglect, and quickly reported: "Your Majesty, the imperial army led by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is indeed elite. There are hundreds of cannons alone. Under the simultaneous bombardment of thousands of cannons, our army will not be like a battle. The bombing and killing is crazy. There are many Ming troops, so they take the opportunity to pounce. What's more important is that the soldiers of the chieftain rebelled at this time. Otherwise...otherwise my family may not be defeated in one battle!"

Speaking of this, he did not wait for King Long to speak, and immediately added: "What the criminal general said is absolutely true. Sha Dingzhou and Wu Bikui, the positive and negative leaders of the Yunnan chieftain allied army, are outside the hall, so we can tell them Verify!”

Hearing this, King Long naturally would not fail to pass it on, and the two chieftains who had escaped by chance appeared in front of King Long.
