"What!"

Everyone present exclaimed almost at the same time.

Tian Jianxiu calmed down a little and said, "Master Futai, is this matter serious?"

In the old Shun Army generals, Mihide Nakada, had the oldest qualifications and could be regarded as the big brother.

It is of course perfect for him to ask this question.

Wen Anzhi nodded slightly and said, "Of course, I will not hide it from you. I only realized that the Eastern Captains had invaded Sichuan after receiving the imperial edict from His Majesty."

After saying that, Wen Anzhi bowed to the direction of Nanjing.

When the generals heard this, they all gasped.

They were in Sichuan and didn't know that the Eastern Captains had already invaded. His Majesty was far away in Nanjing but he could predict things like a god. This is really a wise and unfathomable.

Wen Anzhi continued: "Your Majesty's holy intention is not something we ministers should think of. But I thought Your Majesty would not be satisfied with us just guarding East Sichuan. After all, Sichuan is also your Majesty's Sichuan. The people of Sichuan are also your Majesty's innocent children."

When all the generals heard these words, their faces turned red.

At the end of Chongzhen, refugees were everywhere.

Seeing that the country was not in power, Emperor Chongzhen said something like "The thief is also a child."

In the end, the "innocent" he called sent troops to the capital and forced Chongzhen to death.

Among the generals present, except Yuan Zongdi, they had basically experienced the attack on the capital. After hearing what Wen Anzhi said, he instinctively thought of himself.

In fact, Wen Anzhi has no metaphorical meaning, he just simply wants to express that he is in love with the world and cares about the people today.

The speaker has no intention and the listener has the intention.

Wen Anzhi said this more or less, making the generals feel mocking him.

"Ahem, Lord Futai, just tell me clearly. We must have the responsibility to do whatever we need to do!"

Yuan Zongdi coughed to hide the embarrassment in his heart.

The other generals also agreed: "Yes, yes, Governor, you only need one word, we will follow the order immediately!"

Wen Anzhi twisted his beard and said, "It's so good. I'm really up to you. I want to take the initiative to attack and block the Donglu!"

Everyone had already guessed something, and what they were waiting for was Wen Anzhi's words.

"Don't worry, Governor! The Tartars dared to invade Sichuan and were so impatient. This time I asked him to taste the great things!"

Liu Fangliang patted his chest as a guarantee: "Sir, I'll be the pioneer."

During the Shun Army period, Liu Fangliang was known for his bravery in combat and was often used by Li Zicheng as a vanguard to defeat the enemy's agility.

Of course, he also wanted to show off in front of Wen Anzhi this time.

After all, he has not yet obtained a good chance of performing since he surrendered to the Ming court.

Wen Anzhi pondered for a moment and said, "General Liu, don't worry, I need to consider it thoroughly. We must seize the opportunity this time when we send troops."

Everyone was enlightened when they heard this. The governor was right.

Nowadays, Sichuan is not the only one with the Ming army and the Eastern Army. The combat effectiveness of the Western Army cannot be underestimated.

Although the generals of the Shun Army believed that they were the leaders of the peasant army in terms of combat effectiveness, the combat effectiveness of the Western Army could at least rank second.

The timing of sending troops is indeed very important in this case.

If Wen Anzhi had sent troops too early, it was very likely that the Western Army and the Eastern Barbarians had not yet fought, and the situation would be very complicated and embarrassing.

But if the troops were sent too late, the Western Army would have been completely defeated by the Eastern Captains and Chengdu would have fallen into it.

Only when Wen Anzhi appears just right can the benefits be maximized.

Wen Anzhi glanced at everyone and said, "According to the news that Benfu got, the Eastern Barbarians first broke Baoning after crossing Daba Mountain, and then attacked Weicheng in the west. It seemed that they wanted to take Chengdu directly. Benfu decided to lead troops to approach Chengdu and send troops to suppress the enemy at the right time."

Everyone nodded.

Blitzkrieg fights a rhythm and an opportunity.

When the enemy is not firmly established, the enemy often loses before they can react.

But it may not be necessary if the rhythm is dragged down.

At that time, both sides will set up a battle to attack, and whoever wins and loses is likely.

The Qing army's long-distance raid was obviously trying to attack the Western Army without firm foothold.

Chengdu hasn't experienced war for a long time, and it's really not possible to survive a tough battle.

Chengdu is the center of Sichuan.

The acquisition of Chengdu has great political significance.

Donglu wanted to use Chengdu to order Quanchuan, and he had a wishful thinking.

Of course, the Ming army would not let them succeed, and would definitely send troops to block the attack.

But as Wen Anzhi said just now, the Ming army must appear at the right time.

The best time is of course when the Qing army had just broken the city.

At this time, the Qing army's defense was the most relaxed, and the Ming army suddenly came out to capture them all.

Of course, the Ming army did not have wings, so it was impossible for a magic weapon to come from the sky. If you want to do this, you must make an early arrangement and ambush the army near Chengdu.

In this way, you can send a sentry cavalry to observe the battle situation throughout the whole process, and see the Qing army breaking the city and then breaking out and cleaning up the mess.

This plan is perfect and tempting, but there are still many details to be improved to be implemented.

Although the opportunity was good for the Ming army, it was only once, and if you missed it, it could not be compensated at all.

Yuan Zongdi, Liu Fangliang, Tian Jianxiu and other generals were all aroused by Wen Anzhi, and they were all ready to do something big.

The best way to prove yourself is to make military achievements.

The generals were eager to prove themselves, so of course they wanted to borrow the head of the Donglu.

"This peacemaker decided to send 50,000 troops this time, with General Yuan, General Liu and General Tian assisted."

Wen Anzhi also knew exactly what the generals wanted without hesitation and said: "But there is an ugly saying in this way that can be said before. This time, the troops sent must not disturb the people, the second is not to act without action, and the third is not to violate the order. Those who violate these three articles shall be punished according to military law. Have you heard it?"

"I will obey the order!"

Everyone clasped their fists together.

Wen Anzhi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay. I will order each of you a day to order all the troops, and the army will set off tomorrow morning!"

Zhang Dingguo received a reply.

Or an imperial edict.

His righteous brother Zhang Kewang is still alive and has become emperor, inheriting the position of Emperor Daxi by his adoptive father Zhang Xianzhong.

Zhang Dingguo's mood is very complicated.

On the one hand, he was happy that his righteous brother was still alive, but on the other hand, he was a little unwilling to accept it.

My righteous brother became the emperor like this. How could he convince the public even if his adopted father’s will?

In terms of ability and prestige, Zhang Dingguo asked himself not to lose to Zhang Kewang, and in this case, his righteous brother was eager to become emperor and seemed to be doing it for him to see.

The tone and tone of the righteous brother in the imperial edict also made Zhang Dingguo feel a little unacceptable.

Just now, I became the emperor, and before the dragon throne was warmed up, was you eager to force him to bow down and surrender?

Zhang Dingguo felt very uncomfortable.
