Although the great battle in the Cossack steppe ended with the annihilation of the invading 240,000 Tsarist Russian troops, the war between the Ming and the Tsarist Empire did not end, but had just begun.

The good news reached the city of Nanjing.

"Hmph, the tsar was really unwilling and sent a large army to capture the Cossacks, but unfortunately, they were defeated by Ji Feng's first army, and they also sent 130,000 captives to serve as coolies for the Ming Dynasty!" After receiving Ji Feng's good news, Zhu Ci sneered with great irony.

"Since the tsar started the war first, then the Ming Dynasty does not have to be polite, the direction of the war will be decided by the Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Ci's voice was full of coldness.

Li Yan listened from the sidelines, he knew that when he came, the emperor was finally going to make a full-scale attack on the Tsarist Russian Empire.

Not to mention, Li Yan has been waiting for this day for a long time, every morning when he sees that on the world map, Tsarist Russia always occupies a huge territory standing above the head of the Ming Dynasty, and even his territorial territory does not look better than the current Ming Dynasty, but the Ming Dynasty even counts the newly occupied Australia, and together it does not look much bigger than the Tsarist Russian Empire, it is really like a thorn in the heart, very uncomfortable.

And if you want to pull out this thorn, the only way to cripple the Tsarist Empire and turn many of their places into the possession of the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, is this preparing for a comprehensive counterattack against Tsarist Russia and expanding its territory to Tsarist Russia?" Li Yan asked with some certainty.

"Yes, at least Siberia should be my Ming, and I will help the Tsarist Empire to die and drive them back to Europe!" Zhu Ci nodded and smiled.

The land of Siberia seems to be just a wild land with ice and snow, sparsely populated, and birds that don't, but only he knows how many rich mineral deposits it contains.

For the future of his descendants, he has long taken a fancy to this place, and has always wanted to seize it, it was not ready before, and the railway was not repaired, but now the railway has also been repaired, and the Tsarist Russian army also moved first and took the initiative to start a war against the Ming Dynasty, so the Ming Dynasty naturally could not help but fight back and teach Tsarist Russia a lesson.

"The Emperor Shengming!"

On the same day, Zhu Ci issued a holy decree, reprimanding the Tsarist Empire for daring to invade the Ming Dynasty, and ordered the Ming army to comprehensively counterattack the Tsarist Empire.

Immediately, the Northeast Railway, the Mongolian Railway, the Xinjiang Railway, and a large number of military supplies were transported by train to the border between the Ming Dynasty and the Tsarist Russian Empire.

Together with the First Army in the Cossacks, the Ming Dynasty had six regular armies of 120,000 iron cavalry assembled on standby.

In the area of the Outer Khing'an Mountains, the Seventh Army after Chang Shun has been training in this ice and snow for a whole year.

"Drive!" War horses galloped in the snow, and the soldiers of the Seventh Army wore thick fur coats one by one, fearless of the severe cold here.

"Bang! Bang! A few shots rang out, and a large number of soldiers of the Seventh Army rode horses in the mountains and forests, or in the meadows, chasing wild beasts and practicing marksmanship.

After a whole year, the soldiers of the Seventh Army had long been accustomed to the bitter cold here, and the cold of Siberia was no longer a problem for them.

About two dozen knights came from the south to find Chang Shunhou.

"Commander Chang, the emperor has an order!" One of the two dozen eunuchs riding in the middle shouted at Chang Shunhou.

Chang Shunhou immediately reined in his horse and stopped in place.

Soon, more than two dozen knights escorted the eunuch who had announced the decree to Chang Shunhou.

Unlike the soldiers of the Seventh Army, who had been training in the ice and snow here for a whole year, the eunuch and a dozen or so guards who came here for the first time were so cold that their lips turned purple and their bodies couldn't stand shivering.

"The commander of the Seventh Army often receives the order!" The eunuch who pronounced the decree took out the decree from his bosom with some trembling, and now he just wanted to finish reading the decree quickly, so that he could leave this kind of cold and snowy place, it was too cold and couldn't stand it!

Chang Shunhou hurriedly turned over and dismounted, knelt on the ground, and looked respectful.

"Always follow the order!"

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Tsarist Russia invaded the Ming Dynasty for no reason, the biggest evil, and now order the Seventh Army" In general, it is to order the Seventh Army to go out of the Outer Xing'an Mountains and counterattack the Tsarist strongholds outside the Outer Xing'an Mountains.

After the eunuch finished reading it, he handed the holy decree to Chang Shunhou.

"Long live my emperor, long live!" Chang Shun respectfully took the holy decree in his hand, and then his face was full of excitement.

"Hahahaha, this day has finally arrived!" Chang Shunhou laughed, he had waited for a whole year, and the Seventh Army had also been training here for a whole year, and finally made them wait until today!

Long before coming here to train, Chang Shun knew that they were training to adapt to the cold of Siberia in the Tsarist Russian Empire when they attacked the Russian Empire in the future. From the beginning, Chang Shunhou himself was not lightly frozen, and the entire Seventh Army almost couldn't hold a rifle when he came here, but now he is not afraid of the cold and adapts as usual. No one who has experienced it personally knows what kind of hardship Chang Shunhou and every soldier of the Seventh Army endured, and how many soldiers were carried into the warm house by frostbite during this period, and finally slowly survived.

The news soon spread throughout the Seventh Army, and the soldiers of the Seventh Army cheered, which meant that their training had officially stopped and they had begun to participate in the Great War.

Due to the fact that the Ming Dynasty has always won consecutive battles in recent years, the Ming army has no soldiers who are afraid of war at all, and war is just an opportunity to make meritorious contributions in their eyes.

Chang Shun then turned over and got back on the horse.

"The whole army is back in camp and ready to go to battle!" Chang Shun gave an order.

Immediately, the soldiers of the Seventh Army turned their horses and galloped back towards the camp.

In addition to the Seventh Army, which trained in the vicinity of the Trans-Khingan Mountains, several other corps also trained in the vicinity of Nebuchu and Lake Baikal.

As the holy decree reached the commanders of the armies, on the northern border of the Ming Dynasty, a large number of iron horses galloped, and all armies were deploying towards their attack positions.

From the area of the Outer Khing'an Mountains in the east to the north shore of the Caspian Sea in the west, it spans a long border of more than 20,000 miles.

On August 4, the 11th year of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty, six armies of the Ming Dynasty, 120,000 iron cavalry, and soldiers were divided into 24 routes, each with 5,000 people, and in the same day, they entered the territory of the Tsarist Russian Empire, attacked all the way to the north, and cleared all the strongholds of the Tsarist Russian army established by the Tsarist Empire to maintain its rule.

"Boom"

"Kill"

The Ming army's attack was fierce, magnificent, and mighty, and the iron cavalry seemed to be about to break through the entire Tsarist Russian Empire, and most of the territory of Tsarist Russia was shrouded in the guns of the Ming army.
