After night, Kunming City fell into silence in the night. Only the continuous bonfires outside the city and the smoke that had not yet dissipated remind people of the tragic situation of the sun storm in the city. The wind is clear and the clouds are clear, and the moon is hanging in the air and emitting a light yellow soft light.

Except for the soldiers on duty patrolling at night, most of the Ming army outside the city had fallen asleep. The lights were turned off in the camp. The snoring sounds were like contagious, from east to west, from south to north, and the only thing that was bright was that the faint candlelight from the Central Army camp was not extinguished.

Mu Tianbo's expression was not very good. After the long march these days and the lack of adequate sleep, he seemed much older at this time. Only the flashing eyes on the bags of his eyes were still bright. He sat on both sides of the camp with Li Dingguo with a little excited, slapped the support rods of the bench, and one general and one by one was silent for a long time before Mu Tianbo spoke: "Your Highness, will the Qing army really break through tonight?"

Li Dingguo said in a deep voice: "There is no complete confidence in marching and fighting. It's just that the Qing army has seen the power of our army's artillery. When they are both worried and difficult, they will most likely take measures to break through. We just need to be prepared and ensure that we can be foolproof."

Mu Tianbo nodded and smiled, "With your Highness, where will the Qing army break through?"

Li Dingguo Highway: "Sichuan is the territory of Manchus. If Zhao Fu breaks out there, he will inevitably be afraid of being controlled by others. Although the Wu army is a hawk of the Qing Dynasty, it is quite independent. If I expected it, Zhao Fu should break out in Guizhou. This is the jurisdiction of the Wu army. I am ambushed near the East City by transferring a team of people. As long as Zhao Fu breaks out in the East City, he will definitely be able to intercept them."

"I came to Kunming with the army all the way, and I saw Your Highness's ability to command and make perfect plans. If you say you want to appease the military and civilians in Yunnan, I would be quite kind to convince you. If you say you are marching and fighting, you will have to work hard on your Highness."

"Ahem..." Li Dingguo coughed slightly awkwardly: "Mr. Mu is so serious."

At this time, a personal soldier rushed into the camp and reported, "The Qing army has come out and is breaking through the north gate."

Mu Tianbo and Li Dingguo rose up together. Li Dingguo murmured with a puzzled look, "North Gate? Are they going to Sichuan? No, go out and take a look."

After leaving the camp, he looked out from a distance and saw a fire coming from the north gate of Kunming. The sound of shouting and killing came over. A moment later, a knight came over and reported: "Mr. Mu, Marshal Li, the Qing army broke through from the north gate. Lord Zuo Qianhu could not resist and request reinforcements."

Li Dingguo asked first: "How many people were there in the Qing army?"

"There are Qing soldiers everywhere. I'm afraid they are coming out in a stunning way." The knight replied.

Li Dingguo was confused. It is logical that the Qing army should break through to the east gate of Guizhou. Why did the main force of the Qing army go to the north gate?

"Your Highness, have you sent troops to the east gate to block it?" Mu Tianbo was worried when he saw Li Dingguo being in a hurry and asked anxiously.

"The order is sent. Except for some left behind, all the sects will reinforce the North Gate. No Qing army can be let go." Li Dingguo shouted with a certain eyes.

The shouts of killing at the north gate became more and more intense. As reinforcements arrived at each gate, the Qing army was gradually surrounded by the Ming army and eaten in one bite. At this time, a shout of killing came from the east gate. A team rushed out of the east gate and quickly broke through the few defenses in front of the east gate and fled wildly to the east.

"I've been trapped! What a cruel plan to lure the tiger out of the mountain." After receiving the report, Li Dingguo couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. He never expected that in order to break through, Zhao Fu would dare to use 20,000 Qing troops as bait to break through the north gate, but Zhao Fu himself stayed in the city with 10,000 people. After waiting for the scapegoat to break through the north gate, he suddenly fled to the east gate. This trick to lure the tiger out of the mountain was not very good. Its realization was based on abandoning 20,000 Qing troops, but such a powerful man's way of cutting his arm was the most practical. If the number of people breaking through the north gate was too small, Li Dingguo would definitely discover the conspiracy of the Qing army. Only when it was dark would the Ming army have let 20,000 Qing troops out of the city, the Ming army might mistakenly think that the main force of the Qing army had already left the city. Unexpectedly, Zhao Fu actually kept the next move.

After packing up the bodies and counting the prisoners, the Ming army began to enter the city, posting Anmin notices, and counting the Yunnan suburbs. Li Xiao and Mu Jianming took a group of personal soldiers to the Pingxi Palace to search the house.

The predecessor of the Pingxi Prince's Mansion was the Mu Duke's Mansion of the Mu family. After Wu Sangui occupied Yunnan, he took Mu Duke's Mansion for himself. On the basis of the Mu Duke's Mansion, many courtyards and pavilions were added. The front door was made of a stone lion with a wide door, the front door was decorated with delicate and exquisite carvings and exquisite paintings in the back garden, and the towers and water pavilions were exquisite and unique. It not only showed the style of the royal palace, but also unique. It not only brought the roughness of the northern part, but also added a lot of the compactness of the Jiangnan forest garden.

"Come on, tighten the house, and no fly is allowed to be released." Mu Jianming had the spirit of Hu Hansan back. He grew up in this house when he was young. When he entered Myanmar, he did not feel the bitterness of leaving his hometown. However, there were still some childhood memories and breath in this house. Now he has finally fought back and returned to the original owner. Finally, he felt a hint of revenge and childhood memories.

"Old Li, look, this front hall was originally called Mufengtang, the place where my family's three hundred years of national affairs was discussed. Damn, Wu Sangui's dog thief actually changed my house's doorstep. Qingfengtang? What's the name of this? Come on, go and take the plaque off as firewood to burn it." Two young generals entered the mansion side by side, and Mu Jianming introduced Li Xiao like a male owner.

This royal palace is still the property of the Mu family, but the grain and fodder in the treasury and gold and silver still need to be copied out and transported back to the treasury. Therefore, all the Wu family were detained in the back garden. Many Ming soldiers had already rushed in, and there were also a few clerks holding books to register their property at all times. The royal palace was full of people, and the voices were very noisy. Mu Jianming pulled Li Xiao and found a secluded pavilion to sit down.

Mu Jianming was about to whisper a few words in front of Li Xiao in an old age, but he saw a man in Ming soldiers wearing a dress slipping into the back garden. He couldn't help but take a few more glances, his face changed, and he said, "Who is that person? Is it from the mountain camp?"

Li Xiao only saw the man's back turned and disappeared at the entrance of the Moon Cave, and shook his head and said, "What are you doing with fuss? I don't know where he is. I haven't even met him."

Mu Jianming dragged his chin and said, "No, I just saw that there seemed to be a braid behind his head. Are there any soldiers in the army who have braided it?"

Li Xiao had already pressed the hilt of his waist and said, "Is it a spy? Let's take a look."

Mu Jianming nodded, and the two hurriedly chased into the back garden, but the figure of the Ming Bing was gone. When the Ming soldiers guarding the back garden saw Shangguan, they hurriedly came over to greet him with a smile. Among the Ming army, the best people to speak for the soldiers were Mu Jianming and Li Xiao, two young commanders, so everyone smiled when they greeted him, and the commander would not be arrogant anyway.

"I have met two commanders."

"Oh, it's Lao Yang." Mu Jianming looked closely and saw that the head was the officials of his Shenji Camp. He couldn't help but smile: "Did you see a stranger entering the garden? It's probably as tall as Lao Li, carrying his back slightly, and wearing our military uniform." Mu Jianming said, while using Li Xiao's figure to gesture. Li Xiao cooperated very much, deliberately carrying his back slightly, and walked two steps as he learned from the Ming soldier's back.

"I saw him, but I asked him what he did. He said that he would go in and do something according to Lord Mu's order, so I let him go." The official of the household household replied.

Mu Jianming and Li Xiao looked at each other and felt even more strange. They had already decided in their hearts that this person was a spy.

Mu Jianming said: "Where did that person go?"

Seeing that the boss suddenly became serious, the officials of the household immediately felt that the situation seemed to be a little serious. They hurriedly pointed to the rockery in the direction of their left hand and said, "Let's turn over there, sir, are they having problems? Do they want to gather their brothers to search together?"

Li Xiao shook his head: "No need to make a big fuss for the time being. You should keep the back garden and don't let anyone out. Lao Mu and I go over and take a look."

The officials of the hundreds of households responded and ordered their subordinates to take more vigilance.

Li Xiao and Mu Jianming held the hilt of the knife and walked towards the rockery on the left. When they reached the rockery, the two of them had sweated a lot on their heads. When they turned around behind the rockery, they found that it was empty. In the distance, there was a wall that divided several buildings in the royal palace into several walls. This place was a dead end.

"Where is the person?" Mu Jianming's suspicion became even stronger. A man with an unknown origin and braided braids sneaked into the royal palace and entered the back garden in the costume of Ming army. He said he was following his father's order, but when he got here, he disappeared. Could this person be a ghost?

"There seems to be something strange about this rockery. You stay here, and I'll ask someone to dig it out." Li Xiao looked at the big rockery at the corner of the wall. It is logical that the rockery is always in a garden full of flowers and plants, but this rockery is very strange. It is located on the base of the wall, which is simply a rare thing.

A sound of "choke!" of the golden iron clash sounded. Mu Jianming had already pulled out his waist knife and nodded: "Go, call more people. With my old mu, I will definitely not leave him."

Li Xiao responded and left in a hurry.

After Li Xiao left, Mu Jianming looked at the abrupt rockery. In his memory, there was no rockery before, which means that this rockery was built only after Wu Sangui came. The rockery was very large, several meters long and wide, two people were tall, and there were open spaces around the bank, and many weeds were not cleaned. Obviously, few people have been here. Since that is the case, why was a rockery built here?
