Wen Anzhi nodded slightly and said, "The Eastern Barbarians are powerful, and it is best to attack them with the strength of the two families."

Zhu Cilang frowned and said nothing.

In history, Emperor Yongli once united with Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng against the Qing Dynasty, and Wen Anzhi also participated in it, actively coordinated the relationship between various ministries, and achieved good results at one time, but unfortunately he failed.

In addition to taking the golden finger, the protagonists in the historical time travel novels basically rely on absorbing the remaining members of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong to deal with the Qing Dynasty.

But the problem is that everyone in the world can do this, but Zhu Cilang is not.

Zhang Xianzhong's troops were better, but Li Zicheng led his army to capture Beijing and forced Chongzhen to death.

As a son, the hatred of killing his father is irreconcilable. How could Zhu Cilang openly cooperate with Li Zicheng?

If this is done, the government and the country will be in an uproar.

Wen Anzhi obviously saw what Zhu Cilang was thinking and smiled and said, "Of course your Majesty cannot reach an alliance with Chuang Ni, but you can take advantage of it."

Zhu Cixuan's eyes lit up and said, "What do you mean?"

Wen Anzhi pointed at the location of Guanzhong and said, "Li Chuang occupied Guanzhong and Shanxi, and directly threatened the capital. The Donglu must regard it as a major concern. If I was not wrong, the Donglu will soon launch a large-scale military force against Li Chuang."

Zhu Cixuan asked: "But Shandong is also very important. Don't Donglu want to fight?"

"Shandong is rich, and the Eastern Escaping naturally coveted. But Shandong is no greater than Shanxi's threat to the capital. In Dezhou, the Eastern Escaping realized that the Shandong defenders were not as powerless as they imagined. In this case, the Eastern Escaping would definitely pacify Guanzhong first and then take Shandong."

Zhu Cilang carefully savored Wen Anzhi's words and felt that there was something really right.

At first, Zhu Cilang was worried that the butterfly effect caused by the Great Dezhou Victory would change Dorgon's strategic decision, but now it seems that he is thinking too much.

As long as Li Zicheng is immortal for a day, it will be impossible for the Qing Dynasty to send the main force to attack Shandong.

After all, Shandong is adjacent to Henan and has a strategic buffer. Shanxi can directly threaten Jifu, which has completely different threats.

Moreover, in history, the eldest brother first destroyed the second brother and then the third brother, and few people destroyed the third brother first and then the second brother.

In fact, Cao Wei actually pursued the strategy of destroying Wu first and then destroying Shu at the beginning. However, after the Jin Dynasty, he changed his strategy and changed to attack Shu first and then destroying Wu. Of course, this was because of Zhong Hui's suggestions and the strategic adjustments made after repeated attacks on Wu without success.

"For the Ming Dynasty, the ideal situation is that two tigers fight, and Your Majesty sits on the mountain to watch the tiger fight."

"Oh? Iron Man continued."

Zhu Cilang became more and more interested. He even felt that Wen Anzhi had been learning from Kong Ming to keep a low profile in his hometown for many years.

"Your Majesty, please see, Shanxi is in Datong. If Datong is defeated, the entire northern part of Shanxi will fall into an enemy. If the Eastern Barbarians first take Datong, they can besieged Taiyuan without any scruples."

"Why do Iron Duke thinks that the Donglu will fight Datong first? Datong is a powerful pass, so it may not be so easy to fight, right?"

Zhu Cilang certainly knew that in history, Jiang Yan surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, causing Datong to change its flag instantly. But the problem is that the Qing Dynasty did not know.

According to normal logic, Dorgon would not take the initiative to hit such a tough nail.

Zhu Cixuan asked this to see what Wen Anzhi's judgment is based on.

"There is no different reason, because Jiang Guan, general of Datong."

Wen Anzhi said firmly: "This person has a rebellious bone behind his head, and he will definitely surrender to the Qing Dynasty!"

hiss!

Hearing this, Zhu Cilang not only gasped.

Won't Wen Anzhi also a time traveler? Otherwise, why would he be so sure that Jiang Qin would surrender to the Qing Dynasty?

Seeing Zhu Cilang's surprised look, Wen Anzhi sighed and said, "Your Majesty, Jiang Yan is deeply grateful to this man and leads the important position of Datong General. As a result, Chuang Ni leads his troops to Shanxi, and he surrenders without hesitation. Even Chuang Ni looks down on him and just asks him to be a deputy. Such a person has no character and is a typical fence-bearer. Chuang Ni is strong and serves Chuang Ni, and the East Gate is strong and serves the East Gate. If one day the Emperor Ming Dynasty's Northern Expedition, he will be the first one."

This analysis was incisive and Zhu Cilang nodded frequently when he heard this.

Historically, Jiang Yan was indeed a capricious person.

First, he surrendered to Shun, then supported the Ming royal family, and then surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. Finally, because he was dissatisfied with the treatment given by the Qing Dynasty, he opposed the Qing Dynasty...

Such a person would not be unfair to give him a comment that had a backbone behind his head.

"From this perspective, it will be a matter of time before Shanxi changes hands. How can I achieve what Tiean Gong said to take advantage of it?"

Zhu Cixuan asked very cautiously.

"Your Majesty, if you do not lose Shanxi, how can the court take advantage of it?"

"How do you say this?" Zhu Cixuan was a little confused. What is the relationship between Li Zicheng losing Shanxi and the Ming Dynasty taking advantage of it?

"Your Majesty, you have always wanted to establish your capital in Xi'an. Guanzhong is his foundation. He can not defend Shanxi, but he cannot defend Guanzhong. He can evacuate the capital, but he cannot evacuate Xi'an."

Wen Anzhi said excitedly, and his jaw and beard trembled.

When Zhu Cixuan heard this, he sighed silently in his heart. Wen Anzhi made a wrong judgment on this matter.

After the failure of the Tongguan War, Li Zicheng felt that he could not defend Xi'an and led his troops to the second-largest evacuation again and fled all the way to Huguang. Even the defenders from Xiangyang and other places were taken away.

It seems that Wen Anzhi is not a time traveler.

"I don't think so." Zhu Cilang said slowly: "After all, a bandit is a bandit, and he doesn't attach much importance to the foundation. Although Shaanxi is his place of origin, his food cannot be self-sufficient and his land is too poor. I can't see any reason he has to defend."

"His Majesty?"

Wen Anzhi was a little confused.

Why is the Holy Emperor so sure that Li Zicheng would abandon Shaanxi?

"If this is the case, the heat needs to be grasped."

Wen Anzhi thought for a moment before continuing: "I originally thought that Chuang Ni would defend Guanzhong to the death. In this way, Your Majesty sent a large army to attack Beijing, and there would be a chance of winning. But if Chuang Ni voluntarily withdrew from Guanzhong in order to preserve his strength, the Donglu could mobilize his troops to help at any time."

Wen Anzhi focuses on strategic things, not the gains and losses of a city and a pool.

The importance of Beijing to the Ming Dynasty is self-evident. If Shenjing can be restored, people in the world will be excited and encouraged to believe that expulsion of the Tartars is just around the corner.

But if Li Zicheng was afraid after fighting a war, the Qing Dynasty would not have had too much energy in Shaanxi and could turn around and return to Beijing at any time.

For Huang Ming, the elite army is the most precious resource and must not be easily consumed.

So if you really want to send troops, the timing is very important, and you must get stuck at the moment when Li Chuang and Donglu fight.
