The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"However, it seems that Zhang Xianzhong is completely unprepared."

"Not to mention that he didn't send scouts to investigate the Qing army's movements, he himself is currently fighting outside. If the camp is suddenly attacked, no one will have time to react."

"Unless he has other capable commanders under his command who can command troops temporarily on his behalf."

"Otherwise, when he turns around, he will probably only see the corpses of his soldiers."

While mocking Emperor Qianlong, many people were also observing the changing situation on the battlefield.

At this point, the battles on all sides had reached a fever pitch.

Even Xiang Yu wouldn't be able to clean up the mess in a short time.

After all, he was facing 30,000 cavalrymen, not 30,000 pigs. They wouldn't just sit there waiting to be killed, nor would they stand there without putting up any resistance.

Who could blame him when his fame had already spread far and wide beyond the Great Wall?

Knowing that surrender would also mean certain death, they might rout or flee, but surrender was never an option.

This is why it would take Xiang Yu a long time to clean up the battlefield.

Han Xin also needs time to completely annihilate the enemies within the encirclement.

The best chance would be the frontal battlefield where Liu Bang fought after the Qing army withdrew.

Unfortunately, his soldiers were already exhausted, and even if Dorgon's personal guards withdrew from the battlefield, they would not be able to end the battle quickly.

It was clear that none of the parties had any reinforcements available, and Zhang Xianzhong's camp could only rely on its own men.

"It's very dangerous!"

Li Er, as the commander of the troops, was well aware of how much acclimatization issues could affect the soldiers' fighting ability.

At this point, many soldiers probably couldn't even lift their swords.

Even if they manage to muster their spirits, without a general to lead them, the army will still be a disorganized mess.

At least in his view, even if Dorgon only had a little over a thousand men under his command, it would be difficult for the soldiers in Zhang Xianzhong's camp to stop him.

"Indeed, that's something Han Xin probably overlooked."

Liu Che nodded, looking regretful.

"Is it possible that he didn't just overlook something, but that everything was part of his plan?"

"Otherwise, who do you think would be Liu Bang's biggest enemy after the Qing army was defeated?"

The Southern Ming, Zhang Xianzhong, and other rebel forces.

Liu Bang wanted to complete this challenge. The Qing army was indeed the biggest enemy, but by no means the only enemy.

After eliminating the Qing army, everyone remaining would become his enemy.

"It's not impossible. Given Han Xin's cunning and treacherous nature, he really is the type to scheme against everyone."

"However, this would be far too inhumane."

"The troops that Zhang Xianzhong brought were all willing to risk their lives to fight against foreign enemies."

"It would be somewhat reasonable to let them die in battle, but to let them die so cowardly in a surprise attack by the Qing army, without even much power to resist, is unacceptable."

"Too cowardly!"

Since these people chose to leave Sichuan, it meant that they had all accepted their eventual death in battle.

But Old Zhu couldn't bear to see them die such a pathetic death.

Even though they were all rebels against the Ming Dynasty, it was still the same.

No one spoke up to refute him.

"If this is truly a scheme, then what the Marquis of Huaiyin has done is indeed somewhat excessive."

This time, even Liu Heng didn't speak up for Han Xin.

The main reason is that even he himself couldn't stand it anymore; if he said anything against his conscience, he would despise himself.

"Do you think it's possible that within Zhang Xianzhong's camp, there was someone who could command respect and lead them to hold off Dorgon?"

Li Er's eyes held a hint of suspicion.

If this really was Han Xin's scheme, then he shouldn't have revealed such an obvious flaw.

Although Zhang Xianzhong would soon become an enemy, allowing Dorgon to easily break out of the encirclement would also not be in Han Xin's interest.

The best outcome would be a lose-lose situation.

If nothing unexpected happens, Han Xin must have received advance notice that there was one or more generals in Zhang Xianzhong's army whom he admired.

Furthermore, he believed that even with half-crippled troops, these generals could still contend with Dorgon, or at least fight to the death.

Otherwise, there's no reason why Han Xin would reveal such a huge flaw.

"Could Zhang Xianzhong have such a figure under his command?"

"Don't forget, he's a traitor, and judging from the previous count on the sky screen, he should be dead soon."

"If such a person really existed, how could he have died so young?"

Yang Jian expressed his disagreement with Li Er's inference.

The most difficult aspect for the rebels was recruiting talent.

A truly capable person would not want to serve the court, but instead pledge allegiance to a rebel like you.

But just as everyone was discussing this issue enthusiastically, Emperor Qianlong, who was always fond of sarcasm, suddenly fell silent.

He thought of someone.

If I remember correctly, that person really did come from Zhang Xianzhong's ranks!

And at this time, they may have already begun to show their talent!

"Fuheng, do you still remember whether that traitor was trusted and could command the respect of the people under Zhang Xianzhong?"

That traitor?

Which traitor is it, Your Majesty?

It seems like all those under Zhang Xianzhong's command were traitors!

Seeing Fuheng's confused expression, Qianlong was immediately furious.

"Who else could it be? It's that traitor who has given my Qing Dynasty a headache for decades!"

"The one who came from the Great Western Army, later defected to the Southern Ming, and caused considerable losses to our Great Qing!"

Born into the Great Western Army, he later defected to the Southern Ming and caused considerable losses to the Qing Dynasty.

Fu Heng immediately remembered this person.

Indeed, many people came from the Great Western Army, and after Zhang Xianzhong's death, countless others also defected to the Southern Ming.

But if we're talking about the one person who caused the Qing Dynasty such heavy losses, there's probably only one.

"Your Majesty, are you referring to Prince Li Jin of the Ming Dynasty?"

Li Jinwang, Li Dingguo!

This man not only caused the Qing Dynasty considerable losses, but the battles he personally commanded almost completely clipped the wings of the Qing Dynasty's conquests!

If the Southern Ming emperor hadn't ultimately fallen into the hands of the Qing Dynasty, causing Li Dingguo to die of illness and depression, the Qing Dynasty would likely have faced several times greater difficulties in truly achieving unification!

"Who else could it be but him!"

"Quickly answer me, how capable and popular was this traitor under Zhang Xianzhong?"

After reading Li Er's words, Qianlong suddenly had a bad feeling.

He had a slight suspicion that Li Er's words might really come true!

Now we can only hope that he is wrong.

Li Dingguo was a late bloomer; he was not given important positions under Zhang Xianzhong in his early years.

Judging from Fu Heng's expression, the truth may not be so.

"Your Majesty, Li Dingguo is Zhang Xianzhong's adopted son, and he was highly valued by Zhang Xianzhong when he was still alive."

"After Zhang Xianzhong's death, it was precisely Li Dingguo's insistence on surrendering to the Southern Ming and continuing to resist the Qing that caused such great trouble for our Great Qing..."
