Therefore, a thousand Mongolian soldiers were stationed at Pingyiwei, the transportation hub from Guizhou to Yunnan.

Seeing the Ming Dynasty's sun and moon flag appearing on the official road to the east, the Mengzi soldiers who were on guard at the top of Pingyi City quickly blew their horns. The next moment, groups of Mengzi soldiers swarmed onto Pingyi City.

Yichengtou.

After arriving at the top of the city, we saw the vast army of Ming Dynasty officers approaching along the official road.

The front of the team has already arrived a mile outside Pingyi City, but the rear of the team is still coiled in the mountains. Judging from the formation, there are at least tens of thousands of people.

With so many officers and soldiers, it is obvious that a mere thousand Mongolian soldiers cannot compete with them.

The leading Mengzi native official ordered the native soldiers to guard the city gate strictly, and at the same time sent fast horses to Qujing and Kunming to ask for help.

At this time, Sha Dingzhou was leading a large army to besiege Chuxiong. A total of 150,000 rebels were stationed in 72 companies and surrounded the entire city of Chuxiong.

But Sha Dingzhou encountered a tough problem this time.

As the saying goes, heroes show their true qualities only when the sea flows across the sea. Just when the rebels in Shadingzhou were sweeping across central Yunnan like a tide, Yang Weizhi, deputy envoy of the Ming Dynasty Jin Cang Army Preparation, became a rock blocking the way of the rebels.

Sha Dingzhou actually had the opportunity to deal with Yang Weizhi in a snap.

In December last year, Sha Dingzhou made a surprise attack on Kunming, and Mu Tianbo fled hastily with only a few of his followers.

Naturally, Sha Dingzhou would not let Mu Tianbo go, and chased Chu Xiong all the way. At this time, Yang Weizhi, who was stationed in Chu Xiong, only had 400 soldiers under his command, and Chu Xiong's city defense had not been reinforced.

If Sha Dingzhou attacks Chu Xiong at this time, Yang Weizhi will definitely be defeated.

However, Sha Dingzhou fell into Yang Weizhi's delaying strategy. Yang Weizhi said, Mu Tianbo has fled to Jianchang, you should hurry up and chase Mu Tianbo. As for Chuxiong, as long as other states and counties in Yunnan recognize you as the co-owner of Yunnan, I will

I will admit that anyway, I don't have the courage to go against you, but if you attack now, then for the sake of honor, I have no choice but to fight to the death with you. Sir, please think about it clearly.

When Sha Dingzhou thought it made sense, he bypassed Chu Xiong and chased Mu Tianbo.

As a result, the journey lasted for a month. Yang Weizhi used this time to quickly recruit 3,000 native soldiers, strengthen Chuxiong's city defense facilities, and then began to send troops to raid the grain road in Shadingzhou.

Only then did Sha Dingzhou realize that he had been fooled, and he turned back to beat Chu Xiong in anger.

As a result, after many days of fierce attack, the enemy was not captured, so he had to break the siege and attack elsewhere.

In July, the rebels successively captured Dali Prefecture, Menghua Prefecture, etc., and also forced the landing of various chieftains in eastern and southern Yunnan. By this time, the number of Shadingzhou rebels had ballooned from more than 30,000 to more than 30,000.

The number swelled to 150,000.

So Sha Dingzhou turned around and led 150,000 rebels to attack Chuxiong again, and set up 72 company camps outside the city, completely surrounding the entire Chuxiong city.

However, in more than half a year, Yang Weizhi once again strengthened the city defense.

The rebels violently attacked Chuxiong for more than a month until the end of August, but still did not break the city.

Seeing that he was still unable to capture Chuxiong, Sha Dingzhou gradually became anxious.

When the news of the Pingyi Guards arrived, Sha Dingzhou was trying to persuade Wang Xigun and asked Wang Xigun to write a letter to the court, saying that it was the Duke of Guizhou, Mu Tianbo, who started the rebellion, and then he, Sha Dingzhou, put down the Mu Tianbo rebellion, and then reported to the court.

The imperial court proposed that the Sha family could replace the Mu family to guard Yunnan for generations.

I have to admit that Sha Dingzhou still has some discernment.
