In fact, Yuan Keli does have the confidence to win.

Because after taking office as the governor of the five provinces, he had already made sufficient preparations for the possible rebellion of the southwest toast.

Wang Xianggan told Zhu Youxiao that there are three difficulties in using troops in the southwest.

And he had already had corresponding countermeasures for these three difficulties.

Regarding the complex ethnic composition, he asked officials at all levels to treat the Han and Yi people equally, and used a lot of money to recruit foreign citizens and Han Sichuan soldiers from different chieftains in the southwest to form his battalion, which was trained by Deng Jilong.

Nowadays, these foreigners have become his assistants to mobilize foreigners from all over the country, so that Yuan Keli can quickly recruit a large number of Han refugees after he was in charge of the southwest, but also recruit many foreign refugees.

After these refugees were recruited by him, he used these recruited refugees to solve the second difficulty of using troops in the southwest, that is, to organize these people to repair official roads and stations in Sichuan before the She Chongming rebellion.

In this way, these refugees can live on work, and will not be swept up by She Chongming's rebels after the She Chongming rebellion and form a larger rebel.

Not only that, Yuan Keli had already previewed in his heart how She Chongming would march after the rebellion, and even rehearsed it many times. He also determined how he might be able to mobilize troops and provided logistical support in advance on the way his official army would definitely move forward.

First of all, Yuan Keli had already organized refugees to build bridges in these places.

Secondly, Yuan Keli also added stations on these roads, and prepared mangers and water tanks in advance at each station. He also sent a special person to prepare food here and filled the manger with beans.

Therefore, when Qin Liangyu led his troops to help Chengdu, his troops could advance lightly and not stop along the way. Soldiers could drink water and eat rice at any time, and they could eat beans at any time with their troops.

Not only Qin Liang's Yumen, Du Wenhuan, Li Shiqi and Wang Jianzhong's three official troops gathered in Jiangjin were also greatly reduced in logistical pressure, and they rushed to Jiangjin at lightning.

In addition, Wang Xianggan proposed that the climate in the southwest region is changing and the raging epidemics are raging.

Yuan Keli had already set up a temporary clinic at each inn, reserved doctors recruited from various places, and prepared sufficient medicinal materials.

Once an officer or soldier gets sick along the way, he will be taken in time without following the large army and infecting other soldiers. In addition, Yuan Keli also followed Zhu Youxiao's previous imperial edict to the officials and soldiers that they must drink boiled water for camping and marching, so that the water contained in the water tanks of each station will be boiled water.

Of course, all of this is inseparable from the Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse.

After all, behind this is a lot of money and food support.

Zhu Youxiao relied on Jiangnan to urge the tax to clear the land of Qingzhang, which greatly increased the national treasury income and increased a lot of grain, and then gave Sichuan one million stone of grain in advance as a strategic reserve.

Later, Zhu Youxiao transferred a batch of grain and silver to Sichuan one after another, so that Yuan Keli, the strategy, could easily recruit a large number of refugees in Sichuan in advance and make various pre-war preparations in advance.

To put it bluntly, fighting is all about money and food.

If Zhu Youxiao had not been cruel to the gentry in Jiangnan, Yuan Keli would not have been able to deal with She Chongming's rebellion so calmly now.

As a result, She Chongming did not expect that less than a day after he had been besieged Cheng, Qin Liangyu led the Baigang soldiers to Xindu.

"Damn it, the six thousand white-rod soldiers from the stone burial flew over here! Is it true that you got the news?"

She Chongming kicked over the brazier in front of him and asked Zhu Qinggui, a student who came to inform him of his compatriots.

Zhu Qinggui hurriedly replied: "Students dare not lie to you. It was the message brought by our vassal master. As soon as Qin Liangyu arrived in Xindu, he sent cavalry to send her a message to Xu Ruke, deputy envoy of military preparation late at night. "

At this time, She Yinjiu, the son of She Chongming, also dropped the curtain and said, "Dad! There are indeed a large number of official troops in Xindu, which are Qin Liangyu's white-rod soldiers."

"Bastard! Why did his Shifu Tusi work for his Zhu family so much!"

She Chongming punched the table hard, smashed the teacup on the table directly, pouring out the tea water on the table.

Therefore, no one in the tent dared to speak.

After a long time, She Chongming said one after another: "I led Zhou Ding to lead his 30,000 troops to Niuma Town, Xindu, and stop Qin Liangyu's white-rod soldiers!"

"yes!"

She Yin replied a sentence a long time ago.

She Chongming looked at Zhu Qinggui: "Why haven't your food been delivered yet?!"

Because Yuan Keli was in Sichuan and Guizhou in advance, there was almost no grain in some prefectures and counties captured by She Chongming.

Therefore, since the tens of thousands of soldiers of She Chongming sent troops, in addition to committing rape and looting the Han and Yi people and increasing public grievances, they have not received good logistical supplements. After all, the food stored in various types of government warehouses has been emptied, and the food stored by ordinary people cannot reach the consumption of his tens of thousands of troops.

Therefore, the rebels of the She Chongming tribe, who had planned to grab a local official treasury and took the opportunity to recruit soldiers and become bigger and stronger, now have to go hungry.

As Fang Congzhe expected, She Chongming is now besieging Chengdu because he is attracted by Chengdu's grain storage, rather than considering from a military perspective whether Chengdu is worth attacking.

And so, now She Chongming can only hope for some gentry who colluded with him behind his back.

Zhu Qinggui hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, now Yuan Ke has ordered that from Chongqing, all civilian ships going down the river will be prohibited from passing through, and commercial and traveling in Sichuan will be prohibited, so it is really difficult to transport food. Now, we have tried to find a way to transport 5,000 stones of grain and 3,000 kilograms of gunpowder in the name of the Shu Palace. As for when it will arrive, the students really cannot guarantee it!"

She Chongming had already proclaimed himself emperor and founded the country "Daliang", so Zhu Qinggui would call him Your Majesty.

At this time, after hearing Zhu Qinggui say this, She Chongming directly angrily grabbed Zhu Qinggui's neck and gritted his teeth and said, "You were the ones who said tyrants in the court, and the treacherous minister Yingchao. Yuan Keli is even a man of war on paper and has no ability. After hearing your words, I finally decided to rebel. Why is it that Yuan Keli is not as incompetent as you said, and even very powerful. Not only can I expand my troops first, but I also strengthened my walls and cleared the fields in advance, so that I could not grab food, and forced me to attack Chongqing and attack a big city like Chengdu! What are your intentions?"

Zhu Qinggui's face turned red after being pinched.

Seeing this, She Chongming threw away his hand: "Let your master respond directly in the city and open the Chengdu city gate! Otherwise, I will not be able to spare him!"

"Ahem!"

Zhu Qinggui coughed for a while, then knelt down: "Your Majesty calmed down! The person who is commanding the officials in Chengdu is Xu Ruke. Yuan Keli gave him a handwritten order, forcing all the civil and military officials in Chengdu to listen to him. Although my master is the left governor, he has no military power and he really can't open the city gate!"

"What should I do? You gentry in Jiangnan agreed to transport food, fodder, gunpowder, and firearms from the Yangtze River. I didn't see it at all. Now Qin Liangyu's six thousand white-rod soldiers have arrived. There are tens of thousands of official troops you mentioned in Chengdu. How can you fight me with a group of hungry soldiers?!"

She Chongming kicked Zhu Qinggui directly.

...

The next day.
Chapter completed!
