The addition of our own soldiers brought significant changes to the battlefield situation.
The originally anxious battle situation began to tilt towards the side of the Ming army.
The rebels fought and retreated, and more and more Ming troops boarded the stone fort and gained a firm foothold.
Of course, this does not mean that the Ming army has captured Fengwu Suo.
Qin Liangyu knew very well that several stone castles of this kind were usually built in succession.
Even if they captured the first stone castle, they would probably have to attack two or three more.
In the Battle of Pingbo in the past, Yang Yinglong was trapped in Hailongtun and it took a lot of effort from the Ming army to finally conquer it.
Today we must not take the enemy lightly or take it lightly.
After all, Qin Liangyu was too old to go into battle and kill the enemy in person, but she was not willing to just watch, so she asked someone to get drum hammers and beat the drums to cheer for the army herself.
The Ming army soldiers were even more inspired by the sound of drums, and they all bravely took the lead to kill the rebels.
"Master, we can't hold on any longer.
Let's retreat to Blue Jade Castle."
A rebel soldier covered in blood stumbled up to a man who looked like an officer, and said in tears: "If we continue to fight, we will kill all our brothers.
Don't worry about running out of firewood to keep the green hills."
The general who was called the general's eyelids twitched and said very unwillingly: "That's all, tell the brothers to withdraw."
Although the native soldiers were brave, they seemed to be as timid as sheep meeting wolves against these Ming troops, and they had no advantage at all.
In this case, it is better to retreat to the Blue Jade Fort, which is easier to defend, and take a long-term approach.
Although the Ming army captured the front fort, the consumption was very huge and they should not be able to launch another attack on the Blue Jade Fort in a short time.
They could just use this opportunity to take a break and think about why they were defeated just now.
The rebels retreated in an orderly manner, with dedicated soldiers in charge of the rear.
The Ming army also stopped after a pursuit.
This is mainly Qin Liangyu's request.
She felt that the Ming army also needed time to rest and recuperate.
After a pause, it was time to count the bodies.
In this battle, the Ming army killed more than 700 rebels and only paid the price of more than 500 deaths.
These five hundred people were mainly killed by rolling logs while attacking along the stone path.
When it came to the stage of hand-to-hand combat, the Ming army's casualties dropped.
However, injuries were common in the Ming army.
Except for some seriously wounded people who had no medical treatment, most of the soldiers suffered minor injuries.
Qin Liangyu ordered these wounded soldiers to be bandaged and treated.
No wounded soldier in her army would be given up easily.
This battle was fierce.
Qin Liangyu vaguely saw the shadow of past battles.
If the fight continues like this, the death toll of the Ming army after taking Fengwu Command will rise to more than a thousand.
But she had to choose to do this.
If Fengwu is not captured, it is impossible to directly threaten Kunming.
This is already the simplest and most direct way.
She has lived for more than seventy years and has already lived enough.
Let her do something meaningful for the Ming Dynasty before she dies.
Just after Zhang Dingguo heard the news about the Ming army entering Yunnan, he also chose to lead his army into Yunnan.
If the Daxi Army wants to gain the maximum benefit from this chaotic battle, it must watch the opportunity.
It is best to suddenly rush out to seize the territory while Sha Dingzhou is fighting with the Ming Army.
Zhang Dingguo has long been dissatisfied with the current situation of the Western Army's partial settlement in Bashu, and this time he must take the opportunity to open up the situation.
Of course, there is still support from Zhang Xianzhong and Zhang Kewang behind this operation.
Otherwise, Zhang Dingguo would not have dared to lead his army in like this.

Jianchang has now been opened up as a base camp by Zhang Dingguo, so he does not need to worry about the retreat.
Just be careful during the march and don't get ambushed.
After entering Yunnan, Zhang Dingguo found that there was not much difference from when he was in Sichuan.
There are just more mountains and they are more dangerous.
This is nothing, but there is one thing that makes Zhang Dingguo very uncomfortable.
That is, there are so many mosquitoes in Yunnan.
Especially near water, if you stop for a moment, you will be targeted by poisonous mosquitoes.
I didn't feel anything when I was bitten at first, but after a while it started to itch unbearably.
This greatly affected the march.
Zhang Dingguo had no good solution and could only ask the soldiers to endure it.
But an accident happened while crossing a swamp.
Many soldiers were infected with miasma, became dizzy and weak, and could no longer walk.
It wouldn't matter if only a few people encountered this situation, just leave them behind and continue marching.
However, there were too many soldiers who encountered this situation, and it was impossible for Zhang Dingguo to order the march to continue.
The only option was to slow down the front army and put the miasma-stricken soldiers on horseback and carry them away.
In addition to the Mongolian horses specially used for cavalry, this army also has many pack horses.
These pack horses are not very fast, but they are very good at carrying heavy loads, which can be regarded as solving the urgent need.
But the marching speed was greatly slowed down, and the Daxi Army could only march twenty or thirty miles a day.
During the march, the Daxi Army captured more than a dozen native soldiers.
From their mouths, Zhang Dingguo learned that Mu Tianbo had gathered a group of men to take the initiative to attack Shadingzhou in Kunming.
He couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Two tigers fighting each other, isn't this the opportunity he has been dreaming of?
Zhang Dingguo certainly didn't want to miss this great opportunity.
Originally, he wanted to wipe out northern Yunnan first.
But now he temporarily changed his plan and decided to attack Chuxiong Mansion.
Compared with northern Yunnan, Chuxiong Mansion is much richer and closer to Kunming.
It can become a springboard for Zhang Dingguo to further seize Kunming.
This time Zhang Dingguo has made up his mind to hold Kunming in his hands no matter what.
The imperial edict was sent to Quanzhou, Fujian Province by the imperial envoy, and Zheng Zhilong received the edict at the incense arrangement at his residence.
At first Zheng Zhilong thought it was the little emperor who was going to give him an official title and reward him with gold and silver.
But after listening to a few words, he felt something was wrong.
When he heard that the emperor ordered him to go to Beijing to report on his duties, Zheng Zhilong's face turned livid.
The little eunuch who delivered the order was extremely embarrassed.
On the one hand, he is an imperial envoy and represents the imperial court.
Naturally, he should act more dignified.
But he knew very well that as a warlord, Zheng Zhilong was very reluctant to go to Beijing to report on his duties.
Fujian is Zheng Zhilong's territory.
As long as he is here, he is the emperor of the country.
But if you leave Fujian, it will be a completely different situation.
Especially going to Nanjing to report on my work.
That was the emperor's feet.
If the court didn't like Zheng Zhilong, they could find any excuse to put him under house arrest.
Zheng Zhilong had no ability to resist.
Of course Zheng Zhilong can choose to shirk.
But this is an imperial decree after all, and if there is no sufficient reason to shirk it, the court will make the emperor dissatisfied.

No matter what he chooses, Zheng Zhilong will be unhappy.
And will he, the imperial envoy delivering the decree, become the target of venting?
After all, Fujian is too far away from Nanjing.
If someone is killed here, Nanjing will never know the truth
