At the beginning of this year, after the Shaanxi people's uprising, Zhu Youzhen ordered the guards and battalions in Guizhou and Sichuan and Chongqing to strengthen their defenses.

But according to Ming Jun's consistent urine, naturally no one will take it to heart.

It wasn't until half a month ago that An Bangyan and Hao Chongming raised the flag of rebellion again, and then they remembered Zhu Youzhen's confession before.

In order not to arouse the harsh criticism of the Son of Heaven, on the one hand, the scale of the rebel army was small, and on the other hand, troops were dispatched to try to quell the rebellion as soon as possible.

However, the rebels were fully prepared this time, and the five acropolis had been connected in half a month, and the more than 10,000 battalions of Guizhou General Xu Keli were also about to collapse, and in half a month, the rebels were only three days away from the city of Guiyang.

However, due to the long distance, even the Jinyi Wei secret protection obtained by Zhu Youzhen was ten days ago.

According to the flawed defeat of the official army in this secret protection, Zhu Youzhen naturally also knew the urine of the official army in Guizhou, and according to the time calculation, the rebel army should not be far from Guiyang.

Sun Chengzong was in charge of the military department, and there was a warning from the Son of Heaven in front of him, but the officers and troops were still about to collapse at the touch of a button, and the pressure could be imagined.

Today's Son of Heaven is not the first emperor, Wen Taowu is very old, just his strategy of contacting Mongolia to strengthen the Dongjiang River, in less than a year, has forced the eastern foot to sit on pins and needles.

Every time he talks about military affairs in front of the Son of Heaven, Sun Chengzong has to think twice, so as not to laugh and be generous.

Moreover, Sun Chengzong is not Zhu Youzhen's teacher, and he is not even in the love of incense, so Zhu Youzhen scolds people but does not give him any face.

"Back to Your Majesty, this time the rebellion of Shui'an Tusi has been premeditated for a long time, and the momentum is huge, although there is a warning from Your Majesty in advance, but the state of the official army of the micro ministers, I am afraid that it will be difficult to continue by relying on the army of Guizhou alone, and the ministers please quickly transfer the troops of Sichuan and Chongqing into Guizhou to help."

"And the minister looked at the rebel route, at that time to capture Guiyang, get the population, food and weapons in order to do a big thing, the minister thought that the defenders of Guiyang could not hold out, and wait for the Sichuan and Chongqing soldiers to be surrounded, when the inside should be combined with the outside, and the battle was decided."

After Sun Chengzong finished speaking, he bowed again.

Zhu Youzhen was a little noncommittal when he heard this, Sun Chengzong's strategy can be regarded as an old saying, the soldiers of Guizhou should have no hope, and the transfer of troops from Sichuan and Chongqing is also the proper meaning, and the last rebellion of luxury was to rely on Zhu Xieyuan in Sichuan, Qin Liangyu in Shizhu and Du Wenhuan in Chongqing to calm down.

This rebellion, Sun Chengzong came up with the last counterinsurgency plan again, although there is nothing new, but it is easy to use and has a precedent, and Zhu Youzhen can't say anything.

I just don't know if this rebel army will be the same as last time, besieging Guiyang for a year, and then waiting for the official army to besiege it.

If the rebels had left Guiyang ahead of schedule this time, it would not have been certain who would have done it in the end.

"Do you have a plan? Yuan Butang? ”

After receiving the news of the rebellion of the Tusi in Guizhou, Yuan Keli did not dare to delay, and also came to the Qianqing Palace early in the morning.

"Sun Ge's words are old and serious, and the minister seconded it, and the other minister has something to say."

Yuan Keli has always been upright, although he feels that it is not good to demolish Sun Chengzong's platform in person, but the soldiers are dangerous, one move is not careful, and they will lose all the games, for the livelihood of the people, after Zhu Youzhen's permission, Yuan Keli still expressed his doubts.

"The troops of Sichuan and Chongqing entered Guizhou, not to mention that they had to be after January, whether Guiyang could be held in January, and it should be predicted as soon as possible, Guizhou is high and densely forested, and the soldiers of Sichuan and Chongqing should be careful."

Yuan Keli's words have been made very clear, don't besiege the city, you will be sent to the aid of others, the land of Guizhou is the most suitable for setting up ambushes.

But Yuan Keli's words basically didn't jump out of Sun Chengzong's plan, just checking and filling in the gaps, and Zhu Youzhen didn't want this.

It is right to transfer the troops of Sichuan and Chongqing into Guizhou to encircle and suppress, but how to encircle and suppress needs to be thought about again.

The rebels will not stay under Guiyang City as expected, waiting for the officials and troops to come and join them, although Yu Chongming and An Bangyan are Tusi, but they are not brainless masters to march and fight.

"What is the objection of the Secretaries?"

"The ministers seconded the proposal."

The soldiers were in danger, and Zhu Youzhen wanted to ask his old ministers for their opinions again, but after more than a year of running-in, the old ministers no longer dared to object to things they didn't understand.

"Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Sichuan, transferred 20,000 horses, and Du Wenhuan, the general soldier of Chongqing, and Shi Zhu comforted Qin Liangyu with 10,000 horses each, and quickly entered Guizhou to quell the rebellion, and ordered Zhu Xieyuan to be the governor of Sichuan, Guizhou and Chongqing, and the general leader of the counterinsurgency matters, and gave the right to deal with the situation."

"The matter of food and salary, Han Guang and Sun Chengzong, members of the cabinet university, will discuss and raise it together with the household department and the military department."

Regarding Sun Chengzong's statement that the decisive battle in Guiyang should be combined with the outside, Zhu Youzhen did not accept it, compared to the micro-manipulation thousands of miles away, Zhu Youzhen still believed in Zhu Xieyuan's impromptu command.

From Guizhou to the capital, the news came and went for a month, and the military situation changed rapidly, even if Sun Wu was alive, he could only plan strategically, and the decision of the actual battle had to be handed over to the front-line generals.

"I ordered Zhu Xieyuan to fight steadily, use troops cautiously, and don't be in a hurry to fall into the rebel ambush."

After thinking about it, Zhu Youzhen was a little uneasy, so he added.

"Your Majesty, what about Guiyang?"

Seeing that Zhu Youzhen did not give an order for Zhu Xieyuan to rescue Guiyang quickly, Sun Chengzong was a little puzzled, so he stepped forward and asked.

According to Sun Chengzong's understanding of the generals of the Ming army, if he does not give a death order, the generals will not consider the safety of Guiyang at all, there is no heart to defend inside, and there is no rescue army outside.

"The elder is very worried, and I want to order the new army to go to Guiyang to rescue."

After saying a word, the hall suddenly fell silent, and then looked at the expressions of the important ministers, they were all surprised.

The new army of the Generalissimo's Mansion, the important ministers have all heard of it, but no one has ever seen it, thinking that it was the young son of heaven who was joking, who would have thought that Zhu Youzhen would want to rely on the new army to rescue Guiyang.

It has only been a year since the new army was recruited, and it has never been in battle, so it set out from the capital to Guizhou for rescue, and it is afraid that it will disperse before it arrives.

In this era, the thousand-mile march, in addition to the elite border army can do ten rounds of nine solstice, the general army can have ten rounds of seven solstice, and this time it is still a rapid march, and it needs to arrive at the battle.

How unreliable the ministers think, and the northern army is south, there are many water and soil adaptations, even in winter, the epidemic is not guaranteed not to break out.

When the exhausted new army rushed to Guiyang, it still had a few percent of its combat strength in the face of the rebels who were waiting for work.

This is also the reason why Sun Chengzong only transferred troops from Sichuan and Chongqing into Guizhou, the Tusi rebels have never been the biggest enemy of the official army, the epidemic and the terrain are.

Even when the Ming Dynasty was in its heyday, it was only high-pressure on the Hunan Guizhou and Yunnan Tusi, and did not have the strength to completely exterminate it.

In his previous life, Zhu Youzhen once watched a TV series about the suppression of bandits in Guizhou, I am afraid that only that army has such strength.

"Your Majesty, this is not a good idea!"

Except for Sun Chengzong and Yuan Keli, although the Manchu Dynasty ministers did not have much experience in leading the army, they knew that this matter was extremely unreliable if they thought about it with a little brain.

After a moment of silence, there was the sound of exhortation.
