Seven Days to Save the Great Ming? I'd Rather Hang Myself

Good news: Zhu Lian transmigrated, becoming Emperor Chongzhen of the Great Ming, Zhu Youjian.

Bad news: Today is the tenth day of the third month of Chongzhen's seventeenth year, and Li Z...

Chapter 1138 Battle of Fushun (Part 1)

"General???" Bakyong was very surprised by this sudden official position.

But he quickly regained his composure and asked, "You're not lying to me, are you?"

"We are all soldiers, why would I lie to you?" Li Dingguo began to lobby: "Your current official position is deputy general, and your rank is Huaiyuan general, a third-rank official."

"As long as you dismount and surrender and pledge allegiance to the Ming Dynasty again, you will be immediately promoted to General, and from General Huaiyuan to General Zhaoyong, a third-rank official."

Bakyong scratched his beard and thought for a while, then asked, "What about the others? Can they be promoted to a higher rank like me if they surrender?"

"No!" Li Dingguo shook his head. "Wu Sangui's rebellion was a capital crime! Everyone who joined him in the rebellion is guilty. If they realize their mistake in time and surrender to the court, the most they can do is to be pardoned and reinstated, but they cannot be promoted."

"Can't get promoted?" Bakyong's face immediately fell: "You just said you can get promoted, but now you say you can't get promoted. Isn't this contradictory?"

"You are different from them!" Li Dingguo said earnestly, "In the Battle of Wenyu River in the 17th year of our dynasty, you led the troops to kill the enemy for the court! After that, you made countless contributions in the pacification of Liaozhong. This is what you deserve."

Buck Yong was even more confused. He stuck his neck out and asked, "Why didn't you give me a promotion before?"

Li Dingguo sighed: "The court proposed it, but Wu Sangui rejected it. He said that you are a Mongolian and you are not qualified for promotion."

"What?" Buckyon was furious. "I was so sincere to Wu Sangui, and he actually played dirty tricks on me!"

Li Dingguo did not take advantage of the opportunity to add insult to injury, but did the opposite: "There must be a misunderstanding between Wu Sangui and you."

"What a bullshit misunderstanding!" After saying this, Bakyong realized that he had said the wrong thing and apologized quickly: "Sorry, I haven't read any books."

Li Dingguo waved his hand, "I have said everything I need to say. Do you want to fight or surrender? Can you give me a straight answer?"

Bakyong did not hesitate at all: "I have an irreconcilable hatred with Wu Sangui. I must surrender to the court and counterattack Wu Sangui."

Having said this, he was about to dismount and salute.

"No need," Li Dingguo waved his hand, "The most urgent task is to weaken Wu Sangui's military strength. You need to find a way to recruit other generals to surrender."

"And then?" Bucky asked.

"Then take them there," Li Dingguo pointed to the location of Huang Degong's army formation, and took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Bakyong: "Take this certificate to find General Huang Degong and His Royal Highness Prince Ding and surrender to them. They will tell you what to do next!"

"Okay!" Bakyong took the certificate from Li Dingguo and clasped his hands together: "Thank you very much, goodbye!"

"You're welcome. See you later!"

Amid the sound of horse hooves, Bakyong led his troops to retreat.

Li Dingguo continued to move forward.

"What? Buck Yong deserted from the battlefield?" Wu Sangui felt uneasy after hearing the news. "This... This is impossible?"

He didn't believe that Buck would desert the battlefield.

Bakyong initially served in the Dingying Camp of the town's headquarters, and was later transferred to the Zhongying Camp of the town's headquarters.

The Dingying in the town were Wu Sangui's servants.

These people are not only strong in combat, but also very loyal.

What happened to Bakyong?

Where is the loyalty you promised?

What happened to your promise to be fearless and brave?

Facing Wu Sangui's doubt, the scout immediately replied: "It is absolutely true! Not only did I see it, but many people in the left camp of Zhenbiao also saw it. If you don't believe me, you can ask other people."

Wu Sangui had neither the mood nor the time to verify the truth.

Because Li Dingguo had already led thousands of cavalry to attack.

He first asked, "Where is Buckyong?"

"General Bakyong and his men ran towards the camp." The scout replied.

Wu Sangui said to the messenger beside him: "Take my order and bring him back!"

"yes!"

Although the people have been sent out, it is still unknown whether Bakyong can come back.

"You," Wu Sangui pointed at another messenger, "you immediately ask Prince Rui for help."

"Yes, sir."

The messenger galloped away.

Wu Sangui was still worried.

Although Dorgon would send troops to support, it was not certain when the reinforcements would arrive.

In order to ensure that everything went smoothly, Wu Sangui looked around for someone who could be used.

But now they are besieging Wang Yongji with all their might, and there are very few people who can be transferred.

But if no troops are dispatched, the flanks will be at risk.

"The most urgent task is to stop Li Dingguo's attack, and then seize the time to attack Wang Yongji." Wu Sangui said to himself.

"Please give orders, sir." The close associates around him responded in unison.

Wu Sangui looked around again and ordered loudly: "Weilahai, Keshitu, each of you will lead a thousand elite soldiers and find a way to delay Li Dingguo."

"General," Wei Lahai said in a somewhat awkward tone, "the combined strength of our two forces is less than 2,500, while Li Dingguo has 5,000 men. We can barely hold them off for a while, but if it goes on for too long I'm afraid..."

"Don't worry," Wu Sangui patted his chest and assured, "Prince Rui's reinforcements will be here soon!"

Wei Lahai and Keshtu looked at each other, took the order and left.

Wu Sangui urged his horse forward and led the Neiding Camp to attack Wang Yongji.

At this time, Li Xianzhong also launched a charge.

His target was the Guanning military camp.

Since Wu Sangui had transferred most of his troops to besiege Wang Yongji, there were not many soldiers left in the camp.

Li Xianzhong easily broke through the outer defense and entered the Guanning military camp.

He arranged more than 10,000 cavalrymen into a horizontal formation and attacked from the west side of the Guanning military camp to the east side of the camp.
