Chapter 595: Wife? King Qi? Annan?

When King Li Dingguo of Jin fought against the Qing army in Mopanshan, Emperor Yongli broke his promise again and entered Myanmar to take refuge under the instigation of Ma Jixiang and others. This made King Li Dingguo of Jin exhausted. After Tengyue vomited blood, he became sick and could no longer command the war against the Qing. In desperation, King Jin could only lead his troops to retreat south and rugged in the Yunnan border area. In February, King Jin led his troops to Cheli, and after resting for more than a month, he moved to the Menggen area. Here, many Ming troops came to meet with King Jin, which made the troops of King Jin reach more than 30,000.

As the emperor abandoned the country and the situation worsened, the contact passage between King Jin and the north was cut off by the Qing army, and the news was cut off from the court. In addition, the defeat in Mopanshan, King Jin was sick and the army was unstable. In March, King Jin, who was seriously ill, suddenly ordered someone to beat He Jiuyi to death by sticks. The reason was that He Jiuyi's wife was captured by the Qing army. The Qing side took the opportunity to write a letter to threaten He Jiuyi for surrender. He Jiuyi was a little hesitant and did not decide to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, but did not report the matter to King Jin. As a result, He Jiuyi's subordinates reported the matter to King Jin. King Jin judged that He had both hearts and decided to execute him immediately.

He Jiuyi was originally Sun Kewang's general, and the King of Jin was wary of him. In addition, He Jiuyi's subordinates had nearly 10,000 officers and soldiers, so in order to prevent He Jiuyi from leading his troops to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, the King of Jin took this decisive measure. After He Jiuyi was killed by a stick, his subordinates were deeply dissatisfied. Some generals incited the He camp officers and soldiers to escape, but tens of thousands of He camp soldiers fled overnight.

After hearing the change of Heying's life, the King of Jin was worried that the escaped Heying's officers and soldiers might act as guides of the Qing army and led the Qing army to attack. So he ordered all the houses in Menggen City to burn them away. The young and strong men of Menggen were taken away, and the weak and young were killed. Then, the King of Jin withdrew from the camp and left Jingmai, Jingshi, and rushed to the place where King Bai Wenxuan of Gongchang, and wanted to join forces with Bai Wenxuan to travel to Mubang and Myanmar to revive again.

Before leaving, the King of Jin ordered someone to poke a close friend to death. Jin Weixin, the Minister of Personnel, was because Jin Weixin and Ma Jixiang and others colluded to deceive him, which led to the emperor eventually abandoning the country and leaving another country. Before Jin Weixin died, he regretted that he should not believe Ma Jixiang's words, which led to the emperor abandoning the country today, and the situation turned sharply.

When King Jin was still in Menggen, the anti-Qing war between the Tugong Na Song and others became more and more intense, which had affected the Qing army's occupation and rule of Yunnan. Because the Ping County Prince Luo Keduo and Guangxi Admiral Guoan led their troops back to the defense of the Northern Front, the Qing army commander Duni decided to use the troops of the headquarters and Wu Sangui's troops to suppress the local officials and soldiers in various places to fight against the Qing Dynasty, so as not to affect the Qing army's rule over Yunnan.

After discussion with Hong Chengchou, Doni decided that he and Gushan Ezhenyierde would lead half of the Yunnan-Manchu army to Kunming area, and Gushan Ezhen Zhuoluo led his other half of the Manchu army to conquer Yuanjiang with Wu Sangui's troops. On February 26, the Qing army arrived at Qujiangyi. Ming general Xu Mingchen and Long Piansheng saw that the Qing army was in great power and retreated to Yuanjiang. On the first day of the third day, the Qing army occupied Shipingzhou and arrived at Yuanjiang on the ninth day of the first day of the third day, and surrounded the city with its superior forces. Although Na Song had sent troops out of the city to rob the camp, he was repelled by the Qing army.

Wu Sangui ordered the surrendered general Yang Wei to go to the city to shout, claiming that as long as Na Song tied up Guo Zhiqi, Gao Yingfeng, Xu Mingchen and other Yongli officials, they could still be the magistrate of Yuanjiang Prefecture. Guo Zhiqi and Xu Mingchen saw that the Qing army was in a difficult situation, they asked Na Song to accept the Qing side's request to hand him over to the Qing army for the safety of Yuanjiang military and civilians.

Na Song replied resolutely: "Why are we working together so easy to be in life and death?" He rejected Wu Sangui's request.

Seeing that Na Song was determined, Wu Sangui wrote a credit arrow and shot it into the Ming military camp, calling on the Yuanjiang army and civilians to tie Na Song up to surrender, otherwise the city would be massacred.

Na Song shot the book city in a tit-for-tat way, and listed the crimes of Sangui since he entered the pass, and stated his title: "The General of Shanhaiguan Wu Sangui opened the demolition."

This letter made Wu Sangui angry and irritated. He rushed to attack hard. Yuanjiang City was destroyed. Na Song, Na Tao and his son went up the tower together. Xu Mingchen and others committed suicide. Gao Yingfeng, Sun Yingdou and others were captured. Grand Secretary Guo Zhiqi took advantage of the chaos and fled to the east because the road to the south was blocked.

Zhu Youlang, Mu Tianbo and other court entourages arrived in Manmo after entering Myanmar. The local Burmese official Si Line came to greet him. Emperor Yongli gave him a gold medal and a generous gift of satin and silk. The Duke of Qian, Mu Tianbo, Huating Marquis Wang Weihua, and Donggong Dianxi eunuch Li Chongshi were relatively clear-headed. They believed that putting the fate of the court completely under Myanmar's protection would have unpredictable consequences if the attitude of the Myanmar authorities changed.

Therefore, after discussion, several people jointly proposed to Emperor Yongli: "This place belongs to the border of Myanmar and has not yet entered. If we follow half of the civil and military soldiers into Myanmar and use half of them to guide the prince to enter Chashan to dispatch the various camps, even if there are foreign players in Myanmar, they can rely on them. Otherwise, if they go deep into the Yi point, the sound will be exhausted and the inside and outside are blocked, and they will eventually get trapped."

Emperor Yongli thought this suggestion was reasonable and could be considered. However, the Empress of the Central Palace was reluctant to leave her beloved son and insisted on letting the prince go to Chashan, so she gave up. Because she didn't know that although the King of Jin was defeated in Mopan Mountain, it also severely damaged the Qing army, which allowed Wu Sangui, who was unwilling to kill all of them, to stop the pursuit in justification. Emperor Yongli Zhu Youlang thought that Wu Sangui would soon cross the border to chase him, so when he left Manmo, he ordered the local officials to cut down the trees and block the road.

After Si Shi received this order, after the carriage started, he searched the mountains and rivers inside and outside the pass for three days. When he encountered a hurry to chase the pass, all Ming Dynasty officials were arrested and confiscated their own property. The strong and strong killed them in the ditches in front of the pass. The old and weak were scattered to the Tuzhai to pound rice. Those who were tortured to death were thrown into the river and their bodies were wiped out.

Emperor Yongli and his party to Bamo, the King of Burma sent four passenger ships to greet him. Because the ship was Na Yongli, Emperor Yongli selected 646 entourage officials to follow the Three Palaces and went south through the waterway. Some of them still invested themselves to buy ships and accompany the remaining 900 people. The general Pan Shirong protected Prince Min and others on the land. Among them were eunuchs Jiang Guotai, Liu Jiugao, Liu Heng, Duan Ranzhong, Zhai Guozhen and others, civil servants Zhu Yunjin, military officers Wen Ruzhen, Fan Cunli, Jiang Chengde, Xiang Dingzhong, Gao Sheng and others.

Ma Jixiang, Yang Zai and others surrounded Emperor Yongli to board the Myanmar passenger ship. At this time, not only did the civil and military officers follow the civil and military officers, but there were many people who had no place to take care of the Queen Mother and the East Palace. After Emperor Yongli took the boat, the Queen Mother was furious and said, "The Emperor has not yet been in trouble at this time, and he is not caring about his own mother?"

Zhu Youlang and others had been mooring for two days. On the sixth day of the lunar month, the waterway personnel were ready and drove south one after another. Along the way, the Burmese village residents supplied goods. On the 24th, the King of Myanmar asked Emperor Yongli to send two ministers to the boat to speak.

Zhu Youlang sent Ma Xiongfei, the governor of the Central Government, and Wu Changqi, the censor, to "announce the intention of Nanxun". Although the Yongli court still regarded himself as the sect leader, in fact, he fled. This was naturally very clear about the Burmese monarch and ministers. In order to avoid the difficulty in handling the etiquette properly, the Burmese king refused to receive the envoys and sent Han people to communicate information.

The general news took out the imperial edict issued to Myanmar during the Ming Dynasty Shenzong to check with the Yongli edict brought by Ma Xiongfei and Wu Changqi. It was found that the size of the jade seal was slightly different, so it became suspicious of the orthodox status of the Yongli court. The jade seal was indeed incorrect, and it was made of gold in a hurry. The jade seal was originally lost in Kunming.

The jade seal was incorrect, so Myanmar had enough reason to refuse Yongli's refuge. Yongli was very anxious and asked Ma Xiongfei and others to explain more, but the Myanmar officials refused. Fortunately, Mu Tianbo brought the seal of the General of the South, which was passed down from generation to generation, which was often used in documents of exchanges with the southwest border chieftains and border countries in the Ming Dynasty. The Myanmar authorities only resolved their doubts after comparing them and allowed Emperor Yongli and his entourage to stay in the territory temporarily.

The Ming Dynasty officials and soldiers who were led by Pan Shirong to travel south on land arrived on March 17th across the river from Awa City, Myanmar. Due to the scattered crowds, the Burmese king was uneasy. He said: "This is not to avoid chaos, but to be a secret guide to our country!" He sent troops to surround them and forcibly placed these Nanming personnel in the nearby village houses, regardless of men, women, old and young, respectively, and were prohibited from traveling. Poor, these officials went through great hardships, both to prevent the Qing army and their own family from harming them. As a result, they finally followed the emperor to Myanmar, but their wives and children were separated in an instant, and their family property was exhausted. They were really crying.

The fifth town general Zhao Ziqiang's report to Yuanzhou on the second day of March. After hearing that the Guangxi victory was severely damaged by the Ministry of State Security, Zhou Shixiang was very happy and ordered the Military Commander's Office to commend him. Dong Changqing, the official of the Ministry of War, reminded the Military Commander's Office to send the victory to the Governor's Office. Zhao Ziqiang passed through the Governor's Office to report the report first, and it seemed inappropriate. It might as well wait for the Guangxi Governor's report to report and then discuss it. After this reminder, Zhou Shixiang was also a little confused, so he asked the Military Commander's Office to suspend it and wait for the Guangxi Governor to report it before discussing it.

At this time, a dozen fast horses rushed from Qinzhou, thousands of miles away. The horses were on the verge of a hurry, and as soon as they entered the city, they headed straight to the uterus. Soon, the verge of a verge of the uterus rushed to Guangxi again.

Ten days later, Zhou Shixiang from Yuanzhou received a message that shocked him. Emperor Yongli gave him a wife, but now this wife was seized by the Annan people. And this is not the most important thing. What is important is that Emperor Yongli's edict to confer Zhou Shixiang as King of Qi was also seized by the Annan people.

Wife? King of Qi? Annan?
