In October, just after the autumn harvest, the Wei soldiers began to assemble southward, preparing to drive the Ming army into the sea with one blow.

Gao Yihuan originally wanted to wait until next year to solve the remnants of the Ming forces, but Zheng Sen's attack on Taiwan made Gao Yihuan unable to sit still, and decided to send troops in advance to wipe out the Southern Ming.

Nanming is different from the Dutch, the Netherlands is thousands of miles away, there are not 10,000 people in Nanyang, they have no foundation, it is not difficult to solve it, Gao Yihuan did not take the Dutch in his eyes.

The Southern Ming Dynasty was entrenched in Guangdong and Fujian, with a population of nearly seven or eight million, and if they casually transported some people to Taiwan or Qiongzhou, they would become the henchmen of the Great Wei Haijiang.

At that time, Zheng Sen had ships and people, plus the Ming army was familiar with the coastal situation, and there were loyal gentry on land to report the news, which was definitely more difficult to deal with than the Japanese invaders.

In history, Zheng Chenggong fought against the Manchu Qing Dynasty for many years as the people of Jinxia, and after his death, the Zheng family insisted on it for decades.

The situation in Nanming now is much better than the situation when Zheng Sen had no choice but to conquer Taiwan, and there are still more than 100,000 troops alone.

If these people enter the sea and then take warships to attack the southeast, then the Wei army will be in trouble if they want to defend the sea frontier for thousands of miles.

Although it is impossible for Nanming to overthrow Gao Yihuan's rule if he retreats overseas, Great Wei will also lose the opportunity to solve Nanming.

The sailor is the weakness of the Great Wei, the Zheng family has been on the sea for many years, the Ming Dynasty had no way to take them, and chose Zhao'an to eliminate the threat of the southeast coastal pirates.

If the Southern Ming forces choose to transfer to Taiwan and Qiongzhou Island, there will be no peace in the Great Wei Haijiang.

Therefore, Gao Yihuan only launched a big war when Nanming had not yet made up his mind to go into exile, annihilating the main force of Nanming, and the remnants of the Ming army retreated into Taiwan, so he could not make any big waves.

At the beginning of October, Gao Yihuan appeared in Huguang and began to inspect the Wei army in Changsha and Hengzhou.

At this time, Zhu Cihong was anxious about the situation at sea, and since Hongmaoyi provoked an incident at sea, the Spaniards entrenched in Luzon also repeatedly attacked Ming Dynasty merchant ships, which made Zhu Cihong very annoyed.

The Spaniards dug up thousands of tons of silver in the Americas, and when they had money, they needed to consume it, while the Southern Ming was in a safe corner and lacked materials, which could not meet their needs.

In addition to Portugal still maintaining very friendly relations with Nanming, the Netherlands and Spain are all instigated by Gao Yihuan to make enemies with Nanming.

This made Zhu Cihong very angry, Gao Yihuan colluded with outsiders, and pigs and dogs were not as good.

Originally, Zhu Cihong was going to solve the problem at sea first, but who knew that Zheng Chenggong attacked Taiwan Island and surrounded the Dutch in the fortress, and Gao Yihuan went to Huguang.

At this time, the Dutch relied on the fortress to stubbornly resist, and it would take some time for Zheng Chenggong to solve them, but the appearance of Gao Yihuan let Zhu Cihong know that the Wei army would not give him time.

……

In the endless Lingnan Mountains, a fortress towers between the mountains.

Under the city, the camp of the Ming army spread, and white tents, like white bags, were all over the mountains and forests.

This is Shaozhou Prefecture, that is, the Shaoguan area, which is the only way to go south from Huguang to Guangzhou.

Zhu Cihong, escorted by hundreds of cavalry, came to the camp of the Ming army, and Huang Degong, Wang Yan and others led many generals out of the camp to greet him.

"Your Majesty!" When everyone saw Zhu Cihong's carriage coming, they knelt down and saluted.

Zhu Cihong was not good at riding, and came to Lingnan in a carriage, when he heard the sound, he raised the curtain of the carriage and was helped out of the car by the guards.

He glanced at the generals, his eyes fell on Huang Degong and Wang Yan, and he hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please get up." ”

Everyone stood up, and Zhu Cihong asked, "Two Qing families, how is the situation?" ”

Wang Yan turned sideways and said, "Your Majesty should go into the account and say!" ”

When the next group of people surrounded Zhu Cihong into the camp, came to a big tent, and waited for Zhu Cihong to sit down, the mermaids penetrated in, and after standing on both sides, Wang Yan saluted, "Your Majesty, according to the scout's report, the Wei thieves have frequently transferred troops, and the soldiers gathered in Changsha and Hengyang have exceeded 300,000!" ”

"Three hundred thousand!" Zhu Cihong was shocked, and his face showed panic, "The two Qing families have the certainty of blocking the Wei army!" ”

Wang Yan and Huang Degong were silent for a moment, and Huang Degong said honestly: "Your Majesty, the minister can only do his best!" ”

This is uncertain, Zhu Cihong's face was gloomy, and the accompanying plug Yinxi said: "Your Majesty, the minister thought that he could only ask Sun Kewang for help again." ”

Zhu Cihong frowned, "Will Sun Kewang agree?" ”

Plug Yinxi said: "If the Wei thieves enter Guangdong, Sun Kewang will not be able to stay alone, so he thinks he might as well give it a try." ”

……

Indochina Peninsula, the capital city of Siam.

Under the city, the military tent spread, and the army of Donghu Kingdom blocked the water around the city.

Outside the city, on the east bank of the Chao Phraya River, there is another camp, which is the camp of the Great Zhou army.

After the Wei army captured Nanjing, Sun Kewang judged that the morale of the Ming army was greatly demoralized and could not fight, so he immediately abandoned the Ming army and retreated south first, and on the way to the south, he carried more than 1 million people and entered Annam.

The entry of more than a million people into the Indochina Peninsula greatly increased the power of the Han people, made Sun Kewang's regime more stable, and increased the strength of the Great Zhou State, but made the Donghu Kingdom in the west more and more uneasy.

Soon after Sun Kewang became emperor, the army of Donghu suddenly invaded Siam, preparing to take advantage of the opportunity of the battle between the Zhou army and the Wei army to annex Siam and increase its strength to resist the rise of the Great Zhou.

The Donghu army was like a bamboo, attacking the capital of Siam, the king of Siam immediately asked for help from the Great Zhou, Sun Kewang was in Tiannan, regarded himself as the Son of Heaven, established his own tributary system, and after getting the letter of help, he overrode the public opinion and led the army to kill outside the capital of Siam.

At this time, Sun Kewang and many generals came to the river with horses, and watched the camp of the Donghu people on the other side of the river with a clairvoyant mirror.

"Your Majesty, our army is coming, and the Donghu people will definitely give up the siege and fight a decisive battle with us!" Liu Wenxiu said.

Sun Kewang looked at the camp of the Donghu people, inside the shirtless, short-haired soldiers shuttled, the battle statue hissed from time to time, and the strength was not weak.

Sun Kewang looked down and said: "The Donghu people are in a dilemma now, but I am not in a hurry, the army will stick to the camp for a few days first." ”

As he was talking, a cavalryman galloped over, turned over and dismounted in the distance, and ran over to report: "Your Majesty, the envoy of the Southern Ming Dynasty asks to see you!" ”

"Nanming envoy?" Sun Kewang frowned slightly, "Do you know what's going on?" ”

The cavalry looked up and replied: "It seems that they are here to ask for help, saying that the Wei army is attacking!" ”

When Sun Kewang heard the words, the muscles on his face twitched, he was silent for a while, and suddenly pulled the reins of his horse and shouted: "Go back to the camp!" ”
