Sony really wanted to copy the knife, but had no choice.
Although he is Lai Hu's boss, who calls him Aisin Gioro?
"Immediately report to the emperor and regent on horseback, and then ask all ministries to be on strict alert."
As a veteran on the battlefield, Sony instinctively felt that something was fishy.
But the only thing he could do was to be more careful.
As for what the National Defense Forces on the opposite side would do, he really couldn't guess and had no way to stop it.
Under Changsha City.
Zuo Rong's expression was the same as usual.
"Send someone into the city and give He Tengjiao an ultimatum. If you don't surrender before tomorrow, you will be treated as a war criminal."
After Zuo Rong returned, the Southern Strategic Group resumed operations and invaded Hunan.
Zuo Hua had previously occupied Yueyang and blocked the northern gate of Hunan. Now Zuo Rong rushed from Jiangxi to the city of Changsha.
Although Hunan is vast in area, the best places are all in the east.
In the high mountains to the west, ethnic minorities live. The place is remote, poor and backward, and little help can be provided.
As long as He Tengjiao, the governor of Hunan, chooses to surrender, this place will be taken.
The remaining security wars and bandit suppression wars are not difficult at all for the National Defense Forces.
Outside Pyongyang.
North Korean King Yi Zhu held a grand sacrificial ceremony.
After paying homage to the heaven and earth, he handed over the royal flag and the tiger seal letter to Prince Zhaoxian.
"Go and prove to all your subjects that you are the future king. That traitor is the best sacrifice for you to demonstrate your kingship."
Prince Zhaoxian solemnly accepted the order and embarked on the journey with an army of 150,000 that he had finally raised.
Unexpectedly, just fifty miles out of the city, the entire army came to a halt.
The soldiers were making a lot of noise and didn't want to leave anymore. The whole army was in a restless mood and chaos might break out at any time.
The commander-in-chief of the left army, Zheng Daorong, the commander-in-chief of the right army, Jin Canhui, and the commander-in-chief of the center army, Park Geun-kyu, worked together to seek an audience with Crown Prince Sohyun.
"We know that the Crown Prince, like Lord Fenglin, cannot bear the continued suffering of the people. We also ask the Crown Prince to set up a banner of justice, bring order to the chaos, and restore the lives of thousands of people."
Prince Sohyeon, who was forced into the palace, was very calm.
"The military judgment is in my hands. Even if I have my thoughts, what can I do?"
Zheng Daorong gritted his teeth and revealed a fierce look in his eyes.
"Now that the morale and morale of the military are all on our side, the general will personally take action, and the rest... will be left to the crown prince."
No one knew that Prince Zhaoxian had been waiting for this day for a long time.
"What will happen to you if North Korea disappears?"
Zheng Daorong and the three of them all knelt down to express their loyalty.
"As long as there is a way to survive, I will obey the prince's orders."
Prince Zhaoxian suddenly stood up, his face no longer as humble as before, and his face became stern.
"Act as you wish. I can guarantee that everyone in North Korea will live happily in the future."
Zheng Daorong and the other three were greatly encouraged and left in a hurry.
After a while, the entire military camp became noisy, accompanied by shouts of killing.
Three hours later, Jin Canhui, covered in blood, returned to Prince Zhaoxian carrying Jin Zidian's head.
"The last general has fulfilled his mission and killed the treacherous minister. Your Majesty, you can return to the army!"
Prince Zhaoxian shook his head and immediately gave the order.
"It is not advisable to rush back to the army. Immediately send people to the south and Mount Jingang, and ask Lord Fenglin and His Royal Highness Prince Wuwei to quickly go north to respond."
The generals were very happy when they heard that he had a plan.
In the early morning in Vladivostok, the air was filled with a chilling air.
Miao Niansheng, chief of staff of the Northern Strategic Cluster, stared at his pocket watch with bright eyes.
When the pointer pointed to eight o'clock, he finally took action.
"Order all ministries to start attacking."
After receiving the order, the 27th and 28th Regiments of the Twelfth Division immediately went forward and penetrated into the vast mountains.
Behind these two regiments were the 108th and 109th Security Divisions, as well as 110,000 migrant workers.
This force will cross the vast mountains and pass through large areas of no man's land.
Their target is Tarvin.
This place was called Yanji in later generations.
At the same time, Hong Qi personally led the 22nd Regiment of the 11th Division and the 107th Security Division from Khabarovsk and up the Songhua River.
Their mission is to sweep both sides of the Songhua River, and the end point of the first stage is Laluwei.
This place was later called Harbin.
Wei Yuanfeng led the 23rd Regiment of the 11th Division and the 105th and 106th Public Security Divisions from Hailanpao and headed upstream from Heilongjiang.
Their destination is Hulun Lake.
Hui Shanhui stayed behind and commanded the remaining troops to closely monitor the war situation in Japan and wait for orders from the central government at any time.
"After resting for so long, it's finally our turn to take action."
Facing the rising sun, Huang Sanhu regained the feeling of fighting in a fierce battle.
"I order the entire army to dispatch."
The Central Plains strategic cluster, which was already ready to go, broke through the border with lightning speed and began to sweep towards all parts of Henan.
Fu Gang was responsible for commanding two regiments and two security divisions on the northern front to attack Guide Mansion from Xiao County.
Huang Sanhu commanded two regiments and two security divisions in the middle, launched a sudden attack, and defeated the Qing defense forces with fierce artillery fire.
On the second night, Fuyang was successfully captured.
Jian Zong'an led the complete Sixth Division and two security divisions, suddenly rushed out from the Dabie Mountains, and made a surprise attack on Shangcheng and Yinshan Pass.
These two places are only three hundred miles away from Elong Town, the final decisive battle between the Qing army and the Shun army. They are also the shortest way for the Qing army to return north.
The envoy of the National Defense Force appeared in front of Sony as expected.
"Laihu's crime of killing our empire's merchants is unpardonable. Hand him over, otherwise our army will take all necessary measures."
Faced with the arrogant threat, Sony was frightened, but could not let go.
"This is all just a misunderstanding. We are investigating the various reasons. Please wait for a few days and we will definitely give you a reasonable explanation."
"No need. Only by handing over Hu can the friendship between our two countries be maintained."
"Do you want to break the agreement?"
"It is you who broke the agreement, and you will bear all the consequences."
The messenger came back, but he really didn't bring back Hu.
Seeing this result, Wang Siyi was so happy that she danced for joy.
"Order, the battle will begin at eight o'clock tonight!"
Sony has prepared for the worst.
Although it is unknown why the empire did this, his mission was to provide early warning to the capital and delay the attack of the National Defense Forces.
Therefore, after the imperial envoy left, Sony accelerated its preparations.
He stood at the top of Cangzhou City and looked southward, trying to find clues.
However, the land was vast and flat as a mirror, and even if he tried to open his eyes wide, he could not see anything.
He did not notice that outside his field of vision, the artillery units of the central strategic cluster had been fully deployed.
More than two hundred heavy artillery had their muzzles raised, and according to the results of advance reconnaissance, they aimed at key points of the Qing army.
