    "Wu Sangui, this old man, is so smart, he knows that he will take advantage of his strengths and avoid his weaknesses? He actually figured out a crooked trick to lure the old man into Guizhou for a decisive battle, which really made the old man look a little different, haha."

    Obai expressed his emotion and smile after reading the latest report on the military situation of Yunnan and Guizhou. The military report sent by Liubailijia quickly showed that Wu Sangui¡¯s army was not in a hurry to go north after they raised the banner of the Qing Dynasty.  Seize Huguang, but chose to consolidate the interior and deploy Guizhou. The only two major troop mobilizations were left-wing cavalry general Gao Dejie leading an army of 5,000 troops from Yunnan to Guizhou's northeast barrier, Sizhou Prefecture; the other troop mobilization was  It was the later general Han Daren who led 6,000 troops northward to Zunyi and approached Sichuan. However, judging from the rationing of troops and the dispatch of food and grass, it seems that Han Daren's army had no intention of attacking Sichuan.

    Aobai smiled so happily, Bumbleshan, who didn't understand military affairs, was confused and couldn't help asking Aobai: "Master En, what is the purpose of the old thief Wu Sangui mobilizing the army like this?  The analysis is not to speculate that the old thief Wu Sangui will immediately capture the Huguang grain-producing area after he raised his troops, but now that the old thief Wu Sangui has not done so, why does Enxiang praise him instead?"

    "If Wu Sangui preemptively seizes the Huguang grain production area before the old man is fully prepared, it is undoubtedly the best policy, because it can quickly solve the problem of Yunnan and Guizhou's lack of self-sufficiency in food."  The preparations blocked his way to go north to Huguang, waiting for work like him, sticking to Guizhou, is undoubtedly the smartest choice."

    "It's the smartest choice to wait for work with leisure and stick to Guizhou?" Bumbleshan was even more confused, and said with a mournful face: "Enxiang, I still don't understand the humble job, can Enxiang give me some pointers?"

    "You are still a descendant of Aixinjueluo, so you don't understand? Read more military books when you have time!" Ao Bai scolded with a smile: "You have never been to Guizhou, so you don't know how high the mountains are and how dangerous the roads are.  , How difficult it is to transfer grain, grass and weapons. If the old man hadn't deployed heavy troops in Yuanzhou between Huguang and Yunnan Guizhou to block Wu Sangui's northward route, then Wu Sangui's old thief must have quickly gone northward to seize the Huguang grain production area and solve his problem  There is a problem with the military rations. Because the autumn harvest in Huguang has just ended, the prefectures and governments have sufficient food reserves, as long as the old thief Wu Sangui quickly captures the southern part of Huguang, then his food can not only be replenished on the spot, but can also be used to support the rear of Yunnan and Guizhou.¡±

    "Now, the old man has sent Manzhou Zhenghong Banner Du Tongjue Luo Barbu led an army of 20,000 to reinforce Yuanzhou, choking the throat of Wu Sangui's old thief going north, and deployed large troops in Yuezhou and Changsha as backup. Wu Sangui's old man  It is extremely difficult for the thieves to take Yuanzhou quickly. Once the war in Yuanzhou is delayed for a long time, there will be problems with the food and grass supplies of Wu Sangui's old bandit army.  , and the transportation of food, grass and military supplies is inconvenient, and the defeat is immediately forged."

    "The old man speculates that the old thief Wu Sangui may have seen through this strategic intention of the old man, so he decisively gave up going north and chose to deploy defenses in Guizhou to lure the main force of the old man into Guizhou for a decisive battle.  In order to gain the upper hand, we can take advantage of the three advantages of solid fortifications, familiarity with the terrain, and waiting for work on the inside line, and strive to annihilate or severely injure the main force of our Qing Dynasty in Guizhou, and then take the opportunity to counterattack."

    "I understand the humble position." Bumbleshan finally came to his senses, and asked curiously: "Enxiang, what is the purpose of the two troop mobilizations of the old thief Wu Sangui?"

    "Han Daren's mobilization of troops along the way is to guard against the Sichuan army and contain the main force of our Qing Dynasty." Aobai replied lightly: "Sichuan has been fighting for years, the population has been severely reduced, and the land is desolate. It is no longer possible to support large-scale  The army is fighting, and the old thief Wu Sangui sent Han Daren to lead an army of 6,000 troops north to Zunyi, which is enough to defend the northern line and prevent our Qing army from making a surprise attack from the northern line."

    "At the same time, Zunyi is located in the north of Guiyang. If the old bandit Wu Sangui intends to choose the decisive battlefield in the south of Guiyang, then this road can play a role in threatening our army's supply road and force the old man to separate his troops for surveillance."

    "As for Gao Dejie's route, it's a typical lure army! Our small army invaded Guizhou, and Gao Dejie's troops could easily stop it. After the old man's main force went south to attack Guizhou, Gao Dejie would definitely fight and retreat.  Abandon Sizhou, Zhenyuan and other places, lure the main force of our army into the hinterland of Guizhou for a decisive battle, give full play to their inside advantage, and at the same time stretch the old man's food roads, and use the mountain roads in Guizhou to consume the old man's manpower and material resources."

    Speaking of this, Oboi sneered again, and said: "If my predictions are correct, the old thief Wu Sangui chose either the eastern part of Guiyang or the area around Anshun! And the possibility of choosing Anshun for the final battle is even greater, because the terrain there is more difficult.  It is open and more conducive to the deployment of the army, and Zhenning City with high mountains and dangerous roads to the south is his ideal."This is the best." Obai nodded, and said, "The mother-child cannon only weighs more than three hundred catties, it is easy to carry, and it is most useful for fighting in the mountains. I hope the emperor will not forget it. Besides, the servant also listened to Dai Zi's play."  According to the newspaper, he can still make a water gun that fires twenty-eight shots in a row. If he can really make this thing, I hope the emperor will dispatch a batch to the front line as soon as possible. Guizhou is humid and rainy, and the bow string becomes soft when it meets water.  It is not as easy to use as firearms, if the slave army can have such firearms, they will definitely gain a huge advantage on the battlefield."

    Xiao Mazi, who was eager for Oboi to get out of the capital as soon as possible, of course agreed repeatedly, slapping his chest to assure - as for whether he could do it, Xiao Mazi really couldn't guarantee it.  Aobai then continued: "One more thing, Your Majesty, this servant thinks that it's time for your Majesty to confer Geng Jingzhong and Shang Kexi as Prince Jingnan and Prince Nan. It won't cost you a few more silver per year, but it can temporarily appease them and prevent  They followed the old bandit Wu Sangui to start a rebellion. Besides, the emperor can also lure them to make huge profits with medicines, let them send troops to go to Guangxi to attack the hinterland of Yunnan, and help the slaves wipe out the old bandit Wu Sangui."

    "What will these two guys do?" Xiao Mazi said worriedly: "Shang Kexi is fine. The relationship between Geng Jingzhong and the old thief Wu Sangui is very close. If he is asked to send troops to attack the old thief Wu Sangui, will he agree? If they not only  If you don¡¯t follow the order, but rebel because of my persecution, that¡¯s a serious problem.¡±

    "Don't worry, your Majesty, not only will they not rebel, but they will definitely obey the order." Obai sneered and said, "Wu Sangui's old traitor raised his troops to rebel this time. Although the banner he unleashes is on the side of the Qing emperor, everyone knows that he is trying to continue to dominate.  Eight Banners made huge profits from drug products, and he has already offended the princes and governors all over the world, Monk Geng Jingzhong is delighted to covet the huge profits from drug products, and in order to share the results of the war after the war, he will definitely follow the order."

    "Of course, it is absolutely impossible to expect them to attack Wu Sangui with all their strength." Obai said frankly, "The purpose of the slaves is only to contain the old thief Wu Sangui. As long as Shang Kexi and Geng Jingzhong come out separately  When the first army is stationed in Guangxi, the old thief Wu Sangui must allocate troops to garrison the east side of Yunnan, just in case, and the pressure on the slaves on the frontal battlefield can also be relieved a lot."

    "Then let me try." Xiao Mazi replied hesitantly, "I hope these two treacherous kings can work together with me to defeat Wu Ni."

    Seeing Xiao Mazi's hesitant pockmarked face, Oboi had the urge to smash it with a punch - the reason has been made so clear, monk Geng Jingzhong is happy to serve his own self-interest, even if he doesn't really serve him  , Sending troops to deal with errands to contain Wu Sangui is also a matter of ironclad, do you still need to try?  After he severely wounded or wiped out Wu Sangui's main force on the frontal battlefield, Xiao Mazi was worried about how to stop the two wolves, Geng Jingzhong and Shang Kexi, from rushing into Yunnan to burn, kill and loot?

    After more than ten days of final preparations, on the morning of the second day of the first lunar month in the eleventh year of Kang Mazi in the Qing Dynasty, the first-class Duke of the Qing Dynasty, the first Batulu, and the Taishi Oboi set off at the Wufeng Building in the capital, where the snow was flying.  He led an army of 240,000 to Yunnan and Guizhou to put down the rebellion of Prince Wu Sangui of Pingxi.  Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty also visited Wufeng Tower to boost morale and see off the counter-insurgency army in person.

    When leaving, Oboi's youngest son, Namufu, kept crying while pulling his father's clothes, but what he answered was Oboi's slap in the face, and a loud roar, "Remember, we Manchu men don't bleed.  Tears! If Lao Tzu is shrouded in horse leather, you will put on armor for Lao Tzu, take up weapons, and join your brothers to avenge Lao Tzu! Continue to suppress the rebellion for the court!"

    Namufu nodded with tears in his eyes and forcibly held back his tears. Obai, who was over 60 years old, hugged his beloved youngest son, and said goodbye to his confidantes such as Bumbleshan, Murima and Ge Chuha.  Nodding his head, he got on his horse and shouted: "The whole army is on the move!" As soon as the words fell, Oboi's eyes, whose braids were already gray, were filled with tears.

    Amidst the sound of drums and music, Oboi's three thousand relatives marched out one after another, and joined the main army in Tongzhou. They saw the armored soldiers marching out one after another, and saw Oboi's burly back disappear into the depths of the snow.  Mazi let out a long sigh of relief on the Wufeng Building, and murmured in his heart: "Oboi old thief, farewell! This time, no matter whether you win or lose, I will not let you go back to the capital! Never!  I will make you come back to the capital and yell at me, I will tell you what to do, never!"
