Chapter 634 It's a pity

Dong Dashan shouted long live, and Zhu Yicheng also sighed in his heart. Zhu Yicheng never forgot about Tian Wenyong. If Tian Wenyong had not fought to protect each other, how could he have been today?

If Tian Wenyong fails to die, with Zhu Yicheng's trust and ability in him, his current status is above Dong Dashan. It's a pity that the weather is not far away, which makes people feel sad.

He asked Dong Dashan to get up, Zhu Yicheng sat back on his seat, and after his mood calmed down, he continued to talk about business.

There is no big problem with the situation in the north. The Ming army is fully prepared in the battle of the Central Plains. Now the entire battle situation is also under the expectations of the Ming army. Judging from the situation, although the Qing army has more troops than the Ming army, the right time, place, people and people are on the side of the Ming army at this moment, and the defeat is destined.

He pulled his eyes back from the Central Plains and turned to the southwest, namely Gui, Gui and Yun.

Now, with Yang Xu's troops heading north to the Central Plains, Ma Gongcheng is currently in charge of the southwest battlefield. However, until now, the Ming army has not made any substantial attacks on the three southwest provinces, but only monitors the southwest with an oppressive attitude.

According to the strategy set by Zhu Yicheng before, the three sentences are temporarily placed in a short period of time. The news sent back from the moment also confirms the correctness of Zhu Yicheng's decision.

The three southwest provinces are different from the Central Plains and the Southeast. They have always been in high mountains and far away places. In addition, the various ethnic groups in these places live in mixed places, and there were chaos in the Ming Dynasty. After the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, although the three southwest provinces were under jurisdiction, this kind of jurisdiction was only superficial. The one who really grasped the local area was not the court, but the local local officials.

For a long time, the court and the local government have formed a tacit understanding, that is, the three provinces are under the jurisdiction of the court, but the actual control of the local government is local officials. The officials sent by the court can only be managed by a few cities at most. As for local government affairs, they can only be managed by local officials.

It is precisely this reason that leads to the large number of local officials and extremely large power, forming a delicate balance with the central government. Moreover, every once in a while, there are various reasons for this.

Now, the three southwestern provinces are more complicated than before. Since Zhao Hongcan controlled Guangxi, he has joined forces with local chieftains and heads to form common interests and has almost become an independent kingdom. Later, the two provinces in Yunnan and Guizhou controlled by Aling and Beihenuo were cleverly demolished by Zhao Hongcan, and he followed the situation and coaxed Aling to Yunnan. He used the situation to coax Aling and Gui into Gui without reacting, intending to gain the upper hand.

Later, Gao Jin's troops went south to Guizhou, and the three forces collided together. In addition, the powerful local forces were ready to move when they saw chaos today. Now with Guizhou as the center, the three provinces are in chaos. The forces of each other are complicated and fighting each other can be said to be in chaos.

The more chaotic the three surveillances, this is not a bad thing for the Ming Dynasty. If the three surveillances become a solid piece, it will make Zhu Yicheng sleep uneasy.

It seems that Zhu Yicheng's strategy of siegeing but not fighting before and allowing the development of the three provinces is correct. If the Ming army had attacked the three provinces at that time, it would not only make the situation more chaotic, but it might even be subject to resistance from multiple forces.

Although the Ming army had strong combat effectiveness and excellent equipment, it was not so easy to fight in the three provinces. You should know that the terrain of these three provinces was dangerous, with continuous mountains and dense jungles. Not to mention that the army's current hundreds of thousands of troops were placed in the southwest, it would be useless to double the number of troops.

You should know that hundreds of years later, the southwest bandit suppression also consumed countless troops and energy of the Republic, and it was gradually completed in a few years. But now, it is impossible to achieve that level, even if Zhu Yicheng invests more force, it will not be possible.

Especially when the Central Plains are not yet pacified and the Qing Dynasty is still in Xi'an, the Ming Dynasty can only temporarily place the southwest side. But then again, putting it aside is not ignored. The Ming Dynasty has never ignored the three southwest provinces at all. While sitting on the mountain watching the "tits" fighting, it is still making a series of preparations.

"Gao Jin is indeed a talent, but it's a pity that he can't be used by me!" Zhu Yicheng couldn't help but sigh after hearing it for a while. When talking about the southwest, he had to say that Gao Jin was not allowed to talk about.

After Gao Jin led his troops into the southwest, as an external force, Gao Jin's troops actually did not have much advantage. After all, there were three forces in Guizhou Province. One was naturally the Qing army in Guizhou, and the other was the local local officials. As for the last one, it was Zhao Hongcan's troops who entered Guizhou from Guangxi.

Among these three forces, the Qing army and local local officials in Guizhou are naturally local tyrants, and Zhao Hongcan's troops are not small. Moreover, Zhao Hongcan combined wolf soldiers in Guangxi, and he has rich communication skills with local local officials. In addition, he is the nominal governor and a senior official, so he is not at all inferior in the battle.

Therefore, after Gao entered Guizhou, it was extremely difficult to achieve his intended purpose, but Gao Jin quickly opened up the situation in Guizhou. He used his identity as a rebel army and the convenience of the White Lotus Sect in his hand to promote his idea of ​​using the way to enter Guizhou and did not have the idea of ​​staying in Guizhou for a long time. At the same time, he won over some local chieftains and heads, and used the white lotus things to tempt local people. He soon stood aside in the local area.

Now, Gao Jin's troops have occupied an area in northern Guizhou, and at the same time they stretched their tentacles into the hinterland of Guizhou. In the battle with the Qing army, Gao Jin also fought vividly, and as time went by, Gao Jin's troops became more and more familiar with mountain combat.

Dong Dashan and Gao Jin are also considered old opponents. In addition, Gao Jin was Yuan Qi's confidant before, Dong Dashan also knew him very well. He nodded immediately and said, "What the emperor said is that Gao Jin is indeed a talent. Yuan Qi was defeated and said that he had told Gao Jin that he had to go to the Ming Dynasty. Unfortunately, Gao Jin did not do this in the end, but instead colluded with Wang Zhiqing, and even the current situation."

"I don't blame him if he doesn't come to vote for me." Zhu Yicheng sighed: "Gao Jin is a loyal and righteous person, but he is a little short-sighted. It's a pity that he makes mistakes every step. If there is a chance, I want to see this person again."

At present, it is impossible for Gao Jin to join Ming again. Since he and Wang Zhiqing joined forces, he was destined to be no longer a person on the same path as Da Ming. Especially now that he has replaced Wang Zhiqing, he has completely mastered the White Lotus Sect and has become the leader of the sect.

Whether it was the Ming Dynasty or Zhu Yichong, the White Lotus Sect was absolutely unbearable. It can be seen that Gao Jin could not commit to the Ming Dynasty. As for the Ming Dynasty, it would not accept the existence of the White Lotus Sect. One of the two would completely withdraw.

As for who it is, it is naturally not the Ming Dynasty. This is also the reason why Gao Jin judged the situation and made plans to avoid the Ming Dynasty and go south to make other plans. If he could really break through the southwest and fight a bloody road to the Indochina Peninsula, this would not be a bad thing for the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yicheng would also be happy to see such a result.
