"Tell me in detail." Yuan Keli said with a serious face and nodded.
Things turned out just as Sun Chuanting had said. An Bangyan could not wait any longer and even raised the flag of rebellion before the news from Zunyi arrived.
It looks like there will be a war this time.
The man quickly said, "An Bangyan led tens of thousands of troops to besiege Bijie. I'm afraid Bijie won't be able to hold out for long."
Yuan Keli glanced at Zhang Yanfang beside him and said, "Pass the order down. All troops should speed up and reach Bijie tomorrow. Also, tell everyone that An Bangyan has rebelled."
This made Zhang Yanfang hesitate. He asked, "Sir, will it affect the morale of the army if we tell others about it now?"
In fact, even if these people were his own men, Zhang Yanfang did not feel confident. The reason was simple: he had no confidence in his men, and they might run away if they heard about the war.
Many of them have elderly parents and young children to support, and no one wants to die here. They have no problem serving as soldiers and getting paid on a regular basis, but when it comes to actually fighting the rebels, these people are not too willing.
After all, the military pay is not that much, and only by staying alive can you have a future, right?
Yuan Keli glanced at Zhang Yanfang and said nothing.
Li Biao on the side also looked worried. The reason why he did not agree with Yuan Keli's idea was because he knew the situation of his soldiers.
If the soldiers under his command are the same as those from the capital, then he will have confidence.
Not to mention bringing 30,000 people, even with just 5,000 people, he would be confident that he could kill An Bangyan. But that's not the case!
So Li Biao also looked at Yuan Keli, hoping that he could come up with a solution.
In fact, Li Biao was optimistic. What if An Bangyan didn't rebel so quickly?
So Li Biao did not tell Yuan Keli about the soldiers.
Yuan Keli was not in a hurry. He was so experienced that he had already thought of it.
Back then, the so-called invincible Qi Shaobao led tens of thousands of people to fight against the Japanese pirates. But he was beaten to a pulp by more than a thousand pirates. Why?
It was because they saw the Japanese pirates that the soldiers ran away.
Therefore, Qi Shaobao had to train his own troops, which led to the establishment of the famous Qi Family Army and the famous Zhejiang Army.
Under the current circumstances, there was certainly no time for Yuan Keli to train his troops. However, Yuan Keli could also solve this problem, as he had already thought of it.
You have to know that this is the southwest, not the young master soldiers led by Qi Jiguang. The people here are very tough, and so are the Ming army here.
They are not good at fighting, not really, but they are just unwilling to fight and unwilling to risk their lives, that's all.
