Li Dingguo rode a tall horse into Jianchang City.
The battle in the city was coming to an end.
Some of Feng Shuangli's direct descendants were still guarding Feng Shuangli and were fighting and retreating, but most of the defenders had surrendered.
For them, there is no essential difference between working for Feng Shuangli and working for Li Dingguo.
Saving their wealth and lives is their first priority.
People have to bow their heads when they should bow their heads, let alone these big-headed soldiers.
The reason why the officers and soldiers fight is because they are profitable.
What does the bulk of the soldiers want?
It's just a meal.
If the guy who eats can't protect himself, then it's all nonsense.
And it seems that Li Dingguo is more magnanimous, maybe he can really make something of his career.
As for whether he can change dynasties and sit in the Dragon Court in the future, that is another matter.
Jianchang is an important military garrison town.
In addition to soldiers, most of the people in the city are their family members.
Apart from that there are very few merchants.
After Li Dingguo entered Jianchang, he immediately ordered his soldiers to take over the city defense and try to restrain military discipline.
In his opinion, as long as the soldiers at the bottom did not resist, it didn't matter if Feng Shuangli kept jumping and tossing.
The top priority is to stabilize and clear away the remaining evil.
As for Feng Shuangli, he was in a panic.
He fled to the Chenghuang Temple in the city under the protection of a group of soldiers.
Strictly speaking, this is not a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Even the Jianchang City Wall can be destroyed, and the mere wall of the City God's Temple is naturally nothing.
Feng Shuangli knew that he could not escape defeat, but he was still stubbornly resisting.
He thought that even if he lost, he would kill a few more of Li Dingguo's men to gain some backing.
People can burst out with amazing energy when they desperately resist.
Feng Shuangli's soldiers all knew that it would be difficult to escape this time, so they all worked hard to get some people to be buried with them.
Although Li Dingguo's men had an absolute advantage in numbers, there were more or less casualties.
Seeing this, Li Dingguo did not intend to continue sacrificing the lives of his soldiers, so he ordered the City God's Temple to be surrounded, then poured tung oil into it, and then threw torches into it.
Feng Shuangli and others were trapped in the City God's Temple.
They could not escape and could only wait to die.
The fire burned for a full hour before it stopped.
Before the thick smoke cleared, Li Dingguo ordered the soldiers to rush in and check to prevent any fish from slipping through the net.
But it turned out that he thought too much.
After a fire, charred bodies were everywhere.
These corpses were so burnt that their faces were indistinguishable.
However, Li Dingguo still judged who Feng Shuangli was through the armor.
When this man died, his body was curled up and his back was as hunched as a shrimp.
Although Feng Shuangli's face was already a mass of black coal, Li Dingguo still drew his sword out of its sheath and chopped off his head.
Feng Shuangli's death declared the end of this battle.
Li Dingguo ordered his soldiers to send Feng Shuangli's head to the city tower to hang for public display, and also let the people in the city know that Li Dingguo had won and regained control of Jianchang.
Compared with Jianchang City itself, Li Dingguo paid more attention to the cultivated farmland near it.
After fighting this battle, he was ready to resume production immediately and ordered the soldiers to actively cultivate land.
The land in Jianchang is more than enough to support tens of thousands of people, and even if it supports 100,000 people, it will not be difficult.
But more is not enough, and we can only expand in the direction of Yunnan.
What makes Li Dingguo happy is that the Ming army's control over the generation at the border of Yunnan and Sichuan is not too strong.

If he manages it carefully, he can still take advantage of it.
But it’s up to people to plan things, and it’s up to God to make things happen.
Whether this matter can be successful depends on chance.
Zhu Cixiang has been in a good mood recently.
Not long ago he received an urgent note from Sichuan from Wen Anzhi.
The army under his command defeated the Qing army led by Hong Chengchou and Bolo in the Battle of Chengdu.
And Li Dingguo fled south as soon as he knew he was out of the enemy's rear.
Chengdu is the center of southwest China, and regaining Chengdu is of great significance.
At this point, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan are connected as one and are horns to each other, able to support each other.
Even if the Manchu Qing wanted to go south, it would be difficult and difficult.
According to Wen Anzhi, the Qing army suffered heavy losses this time, and many senior generals were killed.
Among them are Bo Luo, Shuo Zhan and others.
Wen Anzhi judged this from the armor on the corpses of these people.
Because their heads had been cut off and taken away by Li Dingguo first.
However, Wen'an sent people to search everywhere and still did not find Hong Chengchou's body, which proved that Hong Chengchou had probably escaped.
This has to be said to be a big regret.
You must know that Hong Chengchou can be said to be Dorgon's most trusted adviser.
The most important thing is that this person can not only make suggestions, but also personally lead troops into battle.
Putting aside his poor character, he can be said to be a man of both civil and military abilities.
If Hong Chengchou fled back to Shaanxi, it could be said that he had let the tiger go back to the mountain, and there would be endless troubles.
However, you can't demand perfection in everything.
At least in Zhu Cixiang's view, this result is already quite impressive.
As long as the Ming army stabilizes its rule in Sichuan, it won't take long for the army to have strong men and strong horses.
Even the Northern Expedition to attack Hanzhong is not impossible.
Although the Qing army's military operations in Sichuan failed, their rule in Shaanxi was still very stable.
If the Ming army wanted to achieve success in capturing Shaanxi, Hanzhong was the place they must capture.
Zhu Cixiang secretly clenched his fists, Hanzhong, the next step is decided by you.
When Zhu Cixiang was full of ambitions, Liu Chuanzong rushed to Qianqing Palace with great joy.
As soon as he entered the Nuan Pavilion, he fell to the ground, kowtowed to Zhu Cixiang and said, "My congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor."
Zhu Cixiang was in a good mood and asked in a harmonious voice: "Oh, how happy are you?"
"Your Majesty, the news came from Shandong.
Denglai Navy defeated the Japanese pirates and captured many warships."
Um This is indeed good news.
Although Zhu Cixiang has been fully supporting Longjiang Shipyard's shipbuilding, its manufacturing capacity is limited after all.
Today's Denglai Navy only has more than a hundred large ships and hundreds of small ships.
This number is a bit shabby compared to Zheng Zhilong's navy.
If the imperial court really sends troops to Fujian to suppress Zheng Zhilong in the future, these ships alone will not be enough.
It is definitely not as fast as robbing, and robbing Japanese pirates is even more honorable.
"How many ships were seized in total?"
"There are more than a hundred ships in total, and many of them are large ships similar to Guangzhou."
Liu Chuanzong was eager to contribute and laughed harmoniously: "I heard that I found an island where Japanese pirates were entrenched.
The Japanese pirates used that island as a private port for trading and supplies.
The Denglai navy suddenly came out and they were not prepared at all.
They were captured He was killed and his armor was thrown away."
Liu Chuanzong smiled and kept saying: "In addition to these warships, a lot of Japanese swords and silver were also captured.
