"So I concluded that he was definitely going to rebel. He was just waiting for Guizhou's reinforcements to arrive in Sichuan. Once Guizhou's troops arrived in Sichuan, he would definitely rebel directly."
After hearing what Sun Chuanting said, no one present spoke anymore, obviously considering whether what he said was correct.
However, many people think that what Sun Chuanting said makes sense, even Li Biao thinks so.
In fact, even though Li Biao felt that what Sun Chuanting said might not happen, he did not dare to take the risk. Especially since he was the governor of Guizhou, if the thing Sun Chuanting said really happened, the whole Guizhou would be lost, and he would bear great responsibility.
If Li Biao did not go to rescue Sichuan, the court could not blame him. After all, he had An Bangyan who was about to rebel, and he could not leave. He was powerless.
But if he lost Guizhou in order to rescue Sichuan and let his men rebel, Li Biao felt that he would not be able to explain himself.
Li Biao turned to look at Yuan Keli, wanting to see what Lord Dutang had in mind.
Yuan Keli looked at Sun Chuanting and asked, "What do you have in mind?"
"It's very simple. As long as Du Tang stays in Guiyang, I will attack Zunyi. After taking Zunyi, I will lead my men into Sichuan and tell the outside world that reinforcements from Guizhou have arrived in Sichuan, thus tempting An Bangyan to rebel."
"Once An Bangyan rebelled, Du Tang led his army to suppress the rebellion, wiped him out in one fell swoop, and pacified the entire Guizhou, eliminating Guizhou's future troubles. Then the army entered Sichuan from Zunyi to put down She Chongming's rebellion."
"Even if I give you Qi Yuangong's 5,000 men, you still won't have enough manpower." Yuan Keli said to Sun Chuanting.
"Even if I assign you another 5,000 men, it would only be 10,000 men. Starting from Zunyi and heading straight to Chongqing, you would be isolated without a large army to support you from the rear. You can't do this, it's too dangerous." Yuan Keli denied it in a firm tone.
"Sir, if the southwest is unstable, then the court in Jiangnan will be unstable; if Jiangnan is unstable, then the Ming Dynasty will be unstable." Sun Chuanting took a step forward, bowed and said, "At this moment, we can't think too much. Chongqing cannot be lost, Sichuan cannot be occupied by She Chongming, and Guizhou cannot be lost either. We can only split our forces into two routes."
