The days of waiting are always tormenting, and Wang Henian has been staying in the Guogong Mansion for a long time.

Although the Wan Guogong family treats him very well, the food and clothing are the best use.

But the more this is the case, the more guilty Wang Henian feels in his heart.

He always felt that he was staying here, and he was entrusted by the Son of Heaven.

But he was afraid that he would rush to Huguang and clash with the current use of troops by the Son of Heaven.

That feeling of confusion and hesitation haunted him all the time, keeping him awake at night.

Time passed quickly, and soon Wang Henian got the news that the Son of Heaven had arrived in Fengjie and would arrive in Wushan soon!

Wang Henian's mood was a little better.

It's been until this time, and it's not too many days to go.

If you have any doubts in your heart, ask the Son of Heaven for clarification.

As for the overtures of the Wanguo family, Wang Henian can naturally feel it.

They should hope that he can say a few kind words in front of the Son of Heaven, right?

Wang Henian did not refuse this.

Liu Tichun's prestige has long been spread outside, and it can be said that everyone knows about it.

In the past few years, Liu Tichun has also been serving the Ming court.

Such loyal ministers and righteous men naturally deserve to be commended, and Wang Henian feels that the Son of Heaven will do the same.

I really hope to see the Son of Heaven soon, Wang Henian can't wait to ask the Son of Heaven about his plan in person.

Bongjie.

The brocade guards outside the temporary palace where the Great Tomorrow Son was stationed were strictly outside the gate.

This Governor's Mansion when Wen Anzhi was the Governor was located in the center of Fengjie City to the north.

The surrounding streets are vertical and horizontal, and it is easy to get everywhere in all directions.

It was noon and the sun was high.

But in the distance, a team of men and horses galloped towards them, and the riders were brightly armored and majestic.

Before they reached the palace, they tightened the reins of their horses and jumped off their horses.

The person who came was Li Dingguo and his entourage.

As the first fierce general who accompanied the expedition, he also shouldered the heavy responsibility of protecting the safety of the Son of Heaven.

Although the generation from Chengdu to Fengjie was controlled by the Ming army, Li Dingguo did not take it lightly at all.

After all, the safety of the Son of Heaven is above all else, and Li Dingguo must ensure that nothing goes wrong.

"His Royal Highness King Jin!"

The captains of the Jinyi Guard naturally recognized Li Dingguo, and after saluting him with fists, they opened the door.

After Li Dingguo threw the saber to Jinyiwei, he strode in.

The palace renovated by the Governor's Mansion was not large, and Li Dingguo walked along the corridor all the way, and soon came to the courtyard where Zhu Youlang lived.

The chamberlain Han Miao stepped forward with a smile and said, "Oh, Your Royal Highness the King of Jin, you came just in time, Your Majesty is thinking about you." The slave and maid are still thinking of going to the call, you have arrived. ”

Li Dingguo said lightly: "There is a rumor from Lao Han's father-in-law." ”

Han Miao said continuously: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”

I saw Han Miao tiptoeing into the hall, and after a while, he turned back.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, Your Majesty has announced your visit."

Li Dingguo nodded, sorted out his armor and walked into the hall.

There was incense in the room, and Li Dingguo walked quickly around the screen and into the inner room.

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was looking at the map hanging on the wall, Li Dingguo hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Minister Li Dingguo to see Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Youlang turned around when he heard the sound and said with a smile: "King Jin is here, come and take a look." ”

Li Dingguo approached the Son of Heaven a few steps forward.

"King Jin came to see, here is Fengjie, here is Wushan, here is Badong, here is Yiling."

Some of the cities that appear to be very close to each other on the map are actually some distance from each other.

"I think we can board the ship when the artillery team arrives, first go to Wushan to meet the Jingguo Gong and the Anhui Guogong, and then go down the river."

"Your Majesty."

Li Dingguo said in harmony.

The road from Chengdu to Fengjie can be said to be the most difficult to walk.

Grain and grass can only be transported by land. Not to mention the loss fee, it is a waste of time.

But after the festival, everything was different.

The army can rest here and then board the boat and head down the river.

The rest of the march will be by water, and it will be unimpeded.

"If all goes well, I think I should be able to arrive in Patong by the beginning of October."

Since Zhu Youlang decided to go east, he was not pretending.

Considering the weather, this is a decent time in early October.

There was still more than a month before the weather turned cold, and the Ming army had plenty of time to attack Huguang.

Of course, Zhu Youlang does not have to finish his work in one battle, but he must beat the Qing army and let Shunzhi know that this world is not up to him to do whatever he wants.

"Has Your Majesty ever thought about how many troops to keep in Kuidong?"

As the east gate of Sichuan, Kuidong's geographical location is very important.

Chengdu and Chongqing have enough garrisons, but the garrison in Kuidong must not be slackened, and a relatively sufficient force must be maintained.

"Thirty or fifty thousand people must have it, right? If you are scattered, you must have 5,000 soldiers to defend a city. ”

Zhu Youlang paused and said: "As for the specific number of people who should be left behind, I have to ask all the princes." I don't know much about the specific situation of Kuidong, so I can't make a decision for them. ”

"Your Majesty is very right."

Li Dingguo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

His Majesty has become more and more arbitrary these days, and Li Dingguo is really worried that His Majesty the Emperor will make a decision as soon as he pats his head.

If this is the case, it is likely to leave a hidden danger.

"As far as I know, there are not many garrisons in Huguang, mainly concentrated in Wuchang."

Zhu Youlang is very familiar with the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, and around the thirteenth year of Yongli, Huguang's troops were withdrawn to Guizhou, and the garrison of the province was tens of thousands. It's okay to gather together to defend Wuchang, but if you scatter it everywhere, it's really not enough.

Of course, he can only use God's perspective by himself, and he still has to be more obscure when explaining to Li Dingguo.

"In this way, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our army."

Although he didn't know where the Son of Heaven got this information, Li Dingguo still chose to believe it.

After all, judging from the results obtained several times before, the Son of Heaven's grasp of the situation and the judgment of the battlefield trend are extremely accurate, and it can be said that God calculates the heavens.

What reason does Li Dingguo have not to believe it?

Maybe it's the role of Jin Yiwei, right? Or is it a revelation from heaven?

After all, His Majesty the Emperor is the Son of Heaven, and God should not be able to see it, so he revealed some heavenly opportunities.

Although the secret of heaven cannot be revealed, it is for ordinary people.

The Son of Heaven is the son of God, and he is the embodiment of his will in the world.

What else does the family have to hide, the Son of Heaven knows that it is normal for some heavenly opportunities.

"I have ordered someone to send a letter to the king of Yanping County and Zhang Benbing, ordering them to cooperate with me to contain them, and it is best to attack Nanjing again."

Zhu Youlang's words startled Li Dingguo.

When the decision was made, His Majesty did not say that he still had this hand.

With Zheng and Zhang pinning down in the southeast, it was difficult for the Qing army to reinforce Huguang in a short time, and the Ming army had an absolute advantage in a one-on-one situation.
