Boom! Boom! Boom!

There were three rapid knocks on the door, and Su He, who was already asleep, immediately opened his eyes.

He looked at Wang Wenjun who woke up at the same time and comforted him: "You are pregnant now and need enough sleep. Keep sleeping.

If you come to me in the middle of the night, something big must have happened, I'll go check on the situation."

Su He covered Wang Wenjun with a quilt. He got up, put on his clothes and came to the door.

The head of the female guard group bowed and said: "Excuse me, Your Majesty, Chief of Staff Li Fengming and Prime Minister Wang Zhongce are waiting for you at Lingyun Palace.

They jointly signed an order asking me to wake you up."

"If you did this right, you should wake me up according to the procedure and go to Li Hui tomorrow to receive the reward."

Su He praised the guard and walked to the pavilion, where a bicycle was placed.

He was riding a bicycle and walking on the cement road.

Riding a bicycle without tires is a bit laborious, but it is much faster than walking.

The journey is too short and a carriage is not needed.

Li Fengming and Wang Zhongce, if they could wake him up in the middle of the night, something really big had happened.

Where did the accident happen? Guangdong and Guangxi, Yunnan and Guizhou, or the Hetao.

Guangdong and Guangxi have just been occupied, but the people's hearts have not yet fully surrendered. The Ming Dynasty's previous attempts were blocked by the Southeast Governor's Mansion.

But the Ming Dynasty may not be willing to do so. Guangdong and Guangxi are the important financial and tax areas of the Ming Dynasty.

In Yunnan and Guizhou, only the chieftains are not stable, and the reform of the local chieftains has been ongoing. Many chieftains are not satisfied with the reform and often cause trouble.

If the local reclamation corps cannot suppress it and the chieftains join forces with each other, big trouble may really occur.

In the Hetao area, they have been expanding towards the Monan Mongolia area.

Later Jin intervened or the Mongolian tribes united, which may have led to the Mongolian tribes uniting.

But with the presence of machine guns and artillery, the probability of this happening is low.

Su He came to Lingyun Hall, where all the kerosene lamps were lit, making the room as bright as day.

He saw that Li Fengming and Wang Zhongce were not the only ones in the room.

There are also the secret guard leader Su Changsheng and the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau Yang Qianhe.

Su He saw their expressions were serious.

"What happened?"

Yang Qianhe was the first to stand up and said: "Your Majesty, we received intelligence some time ago.

The Ming Dynasty attacked Guangdong and Guangxi and suffered successive defeats in Chengxiang County and Nanxiong Mansion.

There were more than 200,000 Ming troops, but they were defeated by the First Army and the Eighth Army.

It directly woke up the Ming army in the south, and they did not dare to confront our army head-on.

Seeing that our army had no intention of going north, some Ming troops were left behind to guard important passes.

These southern Ming troops turned around and went to encircle and suppress Zhang Xianzhong.

Zhang Xianzhong dug up the tomb of the Ming Emperor's mausoleum. Emperor Chongzhen had great hatred for Zhang Xianzhong. Seeing that the situation in Guangdong and Guangxi was a foregone conclusion, he mobilized troops to encircle and suppress Zhang Xianzhong.

The Ming army in Nanzhili surrounded and suppressed Zhang Xianzhong with heavy troops, and Zuo Liangyu, the commander-in-chief of Huguang, stared at Zhang Xianzhong and chased and beat him fiercely.

There was news some time ago that Zhang Xianzhong was surrounded by Ming troops in Huaining County.

Now the news has been confirmed that Zhang Xianzhong himself has been captured and is about to be taken to the capital for trial.

We predict that Zhang Xianzhong will end up the same as Chuang Wang Gao Yingxiang.

Even his fate was more tragic than Gao Yingxiang's.

Most of Zhang Xianzhong's men were surrounded and annihilated by the Ming army, and a small number of them fled."

After Yang Qianhe finished speaking, Su Changsheng also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I received a letter from the intelligence officer.

Sun Chuanting, the governor of Liaodong, led the Guanning Army and prepared to march from northeastern Liaoning to Henan.

He and the Tianxiong Army of Henan Governor Lu Xiangsheng were preparing to encircle and suppress the Chuang King Li Zicheng in Luoyang.

According to our war games, Li Zicheng’s chance of winning is less than 10%.”

Su He heard the news of Zhang Xianzhong's defeat.

He was prepared and was not surprised at all.

The camels in the Ming Dynasty were so skinny that they were bigger than horses. It was not the end of the Ming Dynasty yet, and the Ming Dynasty still had some vitality and some loyal ministers and good generals.

Suhe captured Shaanxi, Yunnan and Guizhou and other places. These were areas where the Ming Dynasty needed to spend a lot of money for disaster relief.

Without the Shaanxi area in urgent need of money, Xu Guang used his life to help the Ming Dynasty get a sum of money.

It made Emperor Chongzhen realize how much money could still be collected from mineral tax and salt tax.

The Ming court was beaten violently by them many times and realized the power of muskets and artillery.

Now the Ming Dynasty's elite Ming army is a purely firearms force.

Zhang Xianzhong was not as good as Li Zicheng. He only received a small amount of firearms from the Qin army and had no way to replace the damaged firearms.

After the firearm was damaged, they were unable to repair it.

The Ming Dynasty had many troops and advanced weapons, so its morale was guaranteed when dealing with Zhang Xianzhong.

The Ming court should have also noticed that Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng and others were causing trouble from within.

They were unable to concentrate all their strength to deal with the Qin army's attack.

Then, while the Qin army was focusing on Guangdong, Guangxi and the Mongolian grasslands, they concentrated all their efforts to annihilate Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng.

Zhang Xianzhong has been wiped out by the Ming army, if the secret guards did not detect the movements of Sun Chuanting's tribe.

Sun Chuanting was really asked to lead Guan Ning's army to participate in the battle to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng.

Two troops with the strongest firearms in the Ming Dynasty cooperated to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng.

With Li Zicheng's current strength, it is impossible to stop the Ming army.

Su He looked as usual and ordered: "Sooner or later, this will happen. The Ming Dynasty's strength will increase, and Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng and others will not increase the strength of their troops.

Their defeat is only a matter of time.

But the Ming Dynasty could not win so easily, so the secret guards strengthened their support for Li Zicheng.

Through Li Zicheng's army, the strength of the Ming army continued to be consumed."

After Su He said this, he added:

"Be prepared for a large-scale war, Zhang Xianzhong has been defeated.

When Li Zicheng is also defeated, there will be no buffer zone between us and the Ming army.

Let the Ming court concentrate all its efforts to fight a decisive battle with us.

The outcome of this war will determine the ownership of the world.

In order to gain an advantage, when Li Zicheng was defeated, it was likely that the war broke out.

We must now enter a state of war preparation and make all preparations to deal with the coming of a large-scale war."

Su He has realized that in the near future, they will have a decisive battle with Ming Dynasty.

Now is not the perfect time for a decisive battle, but they are ready.

All armies have completed the replacement of weapons. The military academy has trained four cohorts of students, and the fifth cohort will graduate this year.

The Qin army now has sufficient reserves of officers.

The garrison in each city is the reserve force.

The garrison army can be removed at any time, and the soldiers from the new barracks can be added to create five to eight new armies.

After occupying the Guangdong and Guangxi areas, he received news that the fleet had gone to sea.

They trade with other countries around the world through sea trade, and their industry has been revitalized.

After several years of preparation, a large number of new officials have been reserved.

Even if a unification war is carried out in the near future, the Qin Palace can still bear it now.

"Your Majesty, something is not right." Li Fengming said with a frown.

"Feng Ming, what problem did you find?" Su He asked.

"Your Majesty, don't you think Sun Chuanting, the governor of Liaodong, is planning to bring a large number of Guan Ning troops into Henan.

This matter is extremely strange. Under normal circumstances, the Ming army would never do this.

The meaning of the existence of Guan Ning Army is to resist Jiannu.

Now Guan Ningjun ignores the threat of Jiannu at hand, which is surprising.

Not long after the Daling River War, the conflict between the Ming army and the Jiannu slaves continued.
