668 Long Live the Emperor

Compared to the two of them who had never left the province, Long Zaitian had been to the Central Plains, participated in the war to pacify the bandits, and saw the previous means of the Yongwei Battalion. In contrast, he comforted them with a hint of worry: "Thinking about the past, the imperial army dominated by more than 10,000 Yongwei Battalions forced so many bandits to surrender. In my opinion, the troops are now stronger, and there are also the Imperial Guards that pacified the Jianlu of Liaodong. They should not lose to these rebels outside the city!"

"That's not necessarily!" Mu Tianbo immediately denied it, but immediately felt something was wrong, so he quickly explained: "What my Duke means is that this is Yunnan, and the soldiers from the north come here will easily be unacceptable to the local conditions. Although God blesses the Ming Dynasty, the war is so common... My Duke is really worried!"

Hearing their conversation, Qin Liangyu withdrew his gaze outside the city and said in a decisive tone: "If it were someone else, Lao Zhen would not be sure what the war would be like! But now the emperor is in charge of the army, Lao Zhen dares to guarantee that the rebels will definitely be defeated!"

Although she had never actually seen what it was like to be the emperor Chongzhen in person, Ma Xianglin had been to the Battle of Nanyang and came back to tell her that as a general who had been in the military for a lifetime, he could naturally see the emperor's ability to lead troops to fight.

In addition, she was concerned about the war in the north and had a deep understanding of the fierceness of the Jianlu in Liaodong. When she knew that the emperor was in charge of the army, she could destroy all the Jianlu and restore the entire Liaodong. This proved that Emperor Chongzhen's ability to lead the army to fight was definitely not just a coincidence.

How could those who are good at fighting be familiar with the war on one terrain? Emperor Chongzhen could pacify the entire north, so just Yunnan would be a place that would be difficult for the emperor?

This is Qin Liangyu’s confidence in Emperor Chongzhen!

At this moment, Mu Tianbo couldn't help but feel a little happy when he heard her say so sure, and immediately confirmed: "Really?"

"I never speak loudly!" Qin Liangyu looked at him and said seriously.

After hearing this, Mu Tianbo couldn't help but rub his hands happily and said repeatedly: "That's good, that's good..."

After hearing their conversation, Wu Zhaoyuan suddenly felt secretly regretful and hurriedly said, "That's right, the emperor is the only traitor, he is definitely not the emperor's opponent!"

No matter what, it is politically correct to say that the emperor will win, so why have you been confused before? It seems that I am still too worried about the safety of Kunming City!

After hearing that they became optimistic, Long Zaitian's mood was also affected. He immediately pointed outside the city and said, "Since that's the case, there are only these rebels outside the city. It's better for us to go out of the city to give the emperor some gifts!"

"Yes, since the main force of the rebels has left, the combat power of these rebels outside the city will definitely not be very good, so I'll do it!" Wang Yangzu was also excited when he heard this and immediately agreed.

Mu Tianbo was also a little moved when he heard this. He should be able to show off his favor before the emperor comes. And the most important thing is that if the war can be ended as soon as possible, the emperor will be able to return triumphantly as soon as possible, so that he can pay a lot less money and food.

But at this moment, Qin Liangyu said, "No, if the rebels acted like a fictitious shot and deliberately lured our army out of the city?"

"..." Mu Tianbo and others were speechless when they heard this. They could not deny this possibility! If this is the case, it would be dangerous.

"A commissioned act..." Qin Liangyu looked at them and said seriously, "I just insisted, I believe that for another ten days and a half months, no matter whether the rebels were firing a shot or actually going to fight the imperial army, they would be revealed!"

Hearing this, Long Zaitian came to his senses and immediately agreed: "The last general just said something wrong. The Qin Governor said this is a steady move. Even if the main force of the rebels fights with the imperial army, it will not be able to get a result in a short time. We are resisting the city and guarding it, and waiting for the imperial army to arrive is the best strategy!"

Whether it is Wu Zhaoyuan or Mu Tianbo, he also agrees with this statement. He even issued military orders to be vigilant to prevent the rebels from committing fraud.

However, what they never expected was that at noon on the third day, the defenders at the city wall discovered something abnormal and hurriedly reported it to them that the several big figures in Kunming City hurried to the city wall again.

Mu Tianbo was a little excited and asked repeatedly: "Where did you see the imperial cavalry in which direction?"

The rotating general at the city head was also very excited, and quickly pointed his finger at the distance and said, "There is just over there, I just appeared. I don't know where I'm going now!"

After hearing this, Mu Tianbo observed it carefully, but didn't even see the hair. He couldn't help but say a little suspiciously: "Can you read it wrong?"

"Yes, don't read it wrong!" Wu Zhaoyuan, who rushed over, also questioned: "How long has the main force of the rebel army been gone? Even if he fights the imperial army in a decisive battle, it is impossible to have a result so soon, right?"

Long Zaitian on the side saw a little difference and explained to the general: "Looking at the rebels outside the city, they are so scared. Their attention seems to be no longer on the city. It seems that there have been indeed cavalrymen in the court!"

The rotating general is his subordinate. If he doesn't explain it clearly, it would be his wish if the Chief of the Central Committee or the Duke of the State was guilty of lying about military affairs.

I felt that I had explained this, but the persuasiveness was a bit insufficient. Long Zaitian looked at Qin Liangyu, hoping that she could talk too. After all, now in Kunming City, she has the highest prestige.

Without disappointing him, Qin Liangyu nodded slightly and said, "Although I can't figure out why the main force of the rebels has only been gone for two days, the imperial cavalry will appear nearby. But looking at the movements of the rebels outside the city, there should be no mistakes. We can wait here to see. If the imperial cavalry really appeared, it should appear again!"

After hearing this, Mu Tianbo quickly turned around and ordered his personal guard: "Hurry up, go and move the chairs. In addition, make a pot of tea that I gave me. The master will taste tea on the top of the city with Zhongcheng and others!"

"As for order!" His personal guard naturally heard their conversation just now, so he quickly agreed and trotted.

Not long after, a few people were on the top of the city and began to taste tea before the situation outside the city happened. If the Arrow Tower had not been destroyed by rebel artillery, they would not have to hold an umbrella to taste tea in the Arrow Tower.

However, as this happened, the atmosphere became even more relaxed when the soldiers on the city came to see it. They all stared at the outside of the city, fearing that something would be missed.

Before Mu Tianbo and the others finished drinking a pot of tea, a noise suddenly broke out on the top of the city.

"Look, the cavalry is the cavalry..."

"Here, come, the imperial cavalry has appeared again!"

"More than before, look, so many cavalrymen have emerged!"

"Wow, do you see, elite troops, elite troops, those traitors are panicked, look!"

“…”

Hearing this, Mu Tianbo stood up excitedly, but he didn't expect that he was too damn big and knocked over the coffee table in front of them. But at this time, he didn't care and looked directly outside the city.

Sure enough, just far north, there was a cavalry in red uniforms, and at least five or six hundred could be seen. When I saw this cavalry, I didn't care about the tens of thousands of rebels in front of me, galloping on horseback, constantly rushing to the periphery of the rebel camp, and seemed to be shouting something.

The rebels were all facing a great enemy, and even the rebels from other directions drove towards this side. However, no rebels dared to take the initiative to face the enemy.

At this time, Ma Xianglin, who was patrolling the city defense in another direction, had already arrived. After rushing to the cavalry outside the city, he said in surprise: "That is the soldiers of the Cavalry Camp under the Imperial Horse Supervision. The emperor has arrived, the emperor has arrived!"

He had met the Cavalry Camp during the Battle of Nanyang and was deeply impressed. At this time, he immediately revealed the identity of this cavalry.

When he heard that the emperor had arrived, cheers suddenly sounded from the city.

The city of Kunming has been besieged by hundreds of thousands of rebels until now. It is impossible to say that there is no worry about the city being trapped. Especially the bombardment of the rebels' red cannons has increased this worry.

But now, no matter how many worries you had in the past, now it has passed, and the emperor will arrive soon, and the contributions of hard work to defend the city can be presented directly to the imperial front. What a glorious thing!

"Hey, what is that?" Suddenly, Long Zaitian pointed at the direction of the cavalry and asked unexpectedly.

Everyone looked closely and saw a team of cavalry soldiers carrying heads on their spears, slowly approaching the rebel camp. It was obvious that panic spread immediately at the rebel camp.

When Qin Liangyu saw this, he said in surprise: "Can they be the head of the previous rebel leader? The decisive battle has ended, and it will be decided by the battle?"

Even if she had confidence in the emperor, she would be quite surprised if she had decided to have more than 200,000 rebels in one battle.

The others were also surprised, although they were not sure, when they saw the rebel camps already riots and the cavalry continued to appear, they were even more delighted.

About an hour after the large-scale emergence of the imperial cavalry, when the troops reached more than 3,000, I suddenly heard the imperial cavalry shouting in unison: "Long live the emperor!"

The sound of this sound made everyone inside and outside Kunming City hear it clearly.

What, the emperor has arrived? Everyone was thinking the first time they heard it.

That's right, Emperor Chongzhen had already arrived outside Kunming City with the cavalry operations.

I saw the dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty flying, and a team of military uniforms were obviously different from the soldiers of ordinary cavalry. They surrounded one person, like stars holding the moon, slowly appeared from the cavalry and came to the front of the two armies.

"The Jinyiwei, it is the Jinyiwei!" Wu Zhaoyuan shouted in surprise as soon as he saw it, "That is definitely the emperor, the emperor really got it!"

The defenders on the top of Kunming City soon learned about the news and shouted with excitement: "Long live my emperor!"
