Seeing that Chongzhen was worried, Wang Chengen then looked at Wang Yongji's memorial.
After reading it, Wang Chengen patted Chongzhen's shoulders and whispered, "I personally think that it is not appropriate to divide the troops and attack."
"Hmm?" Chongzhen turned his head and looked into Wang Chengen's eyes: "What's the reason? Tell me."
Wang Chengen did not answer immediately, but patted Chongzhen's shoulder for a while before whispering, "I remember that the emperor said before that Wu Sangui's loyalty needs to be verified!"
"I did say something similar." Chongzhen did not deny it.
Only he and a very few people around him knew that he suspected Wu Sangui.
Others know nothing about it.
As Wang Chengen was the personal eunuch, he certainly knew about this.
Wang Chengen continued, "The key to splitting up the troops is to make the Jiannu confused about the location of the main force of the Ping Liao army. If Wu Sangui leaks the secret, the Jiannu can make corresponding deployments based on the strengths and weaknesses of our army. By then, I'm afraid..."

Chongzhen shook his head again.

After beating for a while, Chongzhen slowly said: "Some things can't be said!"
"I don't understand." Wang Chengen lowered his head and stopped pounding his shoulders.
Chongzhen seemed to be explaining, but also seemed to be talking to himself: "If I tell Wang Yongji about my suspicion of Wu Sangui, Wang Yongji's first reaction will not be to think whether Wu Sangui has a problem, but to think that I also suspect him!"
"In his mind, I must have told someone that I doubted his words."
“Doubt is like a seed; once it germinates, it thrives.”
"Once the other generals of the Ping Liao army know this news, they will all fall into the same worry."
"In this case, who will concentrate on fighting? Defeat is inevitable!"
