Three Kingdoms: Domination of the World

Chapter 224 The King of Breakthrough Li Zicheng

A mysterious army suddenly descended upon Qin and Jin, posing a far greater threat than Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong. Emperor Chongzhen secretly ordered the main force of the Ming army to cease its pursuit of Zhang Xianzhong and return immediately to the capital.

Suo Chao used his supernatural powers to travel to the border of Henan and Shandong. Along the way, he saw many starving people and rebels, many of whom were going to join Li Zicheng, the King of Rebellion.

Suo Chao activated his Wushuang strategy, summoning 10,000 elite troops from World D to begin disaster relief and refugee sheltering efforts. Li Zicheng's influence in North China was still significant, and he commanded many powerful generals, including Liu Zongmin, Hao Yaoqi, Tian Jianxiu, Gao Yigong, and Liu Fangliang.

The Dashun Dynasty had no future, and Suo Chao wanted to eliminate this destabilizing factor as soon as possible. However, he exposed his strength prematurely and became the focus of the court's attention.

"Report!" A quick shout broke the silence in the tent.

A messenger rushed into the tent in a hurry, knelt on one knee, held up a letter with both hands, and shouted:

"General, the Ming court sent a letter demanding that our army surrender immediately and not act rashly." His face was full of anxiety, and beads of sweat hung on his forehead.

Suo Chao slowly stood up, walked over to the messenger, took the letter, and read it carefully. After a moment, he held the letter tightly in his hand, a determined look on his face.

Suo Chao turned around, strode to the desk, picked up a pen, and quickly wrote a reply. Then, he handed the reply to the messenger and said seriously:

"These two letters must be delivered, understand?" His eyes revealed majesty and his voice was loud and powerful.

The messenger quickly stood up, took the reply letter with both hands, and said respectfully:

"I understand and will not fail in my mission." After saying this, he turned around and walked quickly out of the tent to carry out the order.

Suo Chao stood there, watching the messenger's departing back, his eyes filled with solemnity. He made clear his stance to Emperor Chongzhen: his army would not attack the Ming court.

But who was Chongzhen? He didn't trust many of his officials, let alone Suo Chao, a heretic who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. To prevent any unforeseen events, he ordered his army to guard strategic locations and strictly prevent an attack from the Ming army.

索超令齐超招编10万新军,由6万贵霜俘虏兵和4万鲜卑青壮组成。此时,D世界中的兵力已经来到了15万之数。新收的明朝流民百姓也多达20万之众。

The Ming Dynasty still had a large population. If Suo Chao could rescue these starving people in time, he could recruit them for his own use. It was estimated that he could recruit 6000 million to million people. This was a very rapid population expansion.

Suo Chao summoned 10 new troops, and Qi Chao was responsible for disaster relief and refugee shelter in Henan and Shandong. Li Zicheng was also shocked to hear that a large army of over people had emerged on the Henan border.

At the time of the uprising, the counselor Yang Yongyu proposed the strategy of "first taking Guanzhong, occupying Qin and Long, and recovering the three borders to suppress Liaodong". This sudden change disrupted the layout of King Chuang's army.

Li Zicheng was tall and strong, with a sturdy physique. His face was dark and weathered, and his eyes were bright and bright, revealing his determination and courage.

Inside the military tent, Li Zicheng, clad in heavy armor, had a sharp gaze that seemed to penetrate the map before him. He held a newly delivered intelligence in his hand, pondering silently.

"Who on earth is this Suo Chao? How could he gather such a large army..."

Li Zicheng knew very well that the situation had become confusing and he had to re-examine his strategy.

He turned to look at the generals around him and said:

"Everyone, Suo Chao's army is now stationed in Henan and Shandong. How should we respond?"

There was silence in the tent for a moment, and everyone looked at each other in confusion.

At this time, Song Xiance stood up and said with a bow:

"Prince Chuang, I believe we should send spies to investigate and understand the enemy's strength. At the same time, we should strengthen the border defenses to prevent surprise attacks."

Li Zicheng nodded, a look of determination flashed in his eyes:

"Give orders to all units to step up their guard and be ready for battle at any moment!"

At that time, Li Zicheng's army consisted of less than 2 men. From a few thousand to over today, Li Zicheng's army has expanded rapidly. During the famine, as long as there was food, people were happy to join the uprising.

Li Zicheng ordered his nephew Li Chao to lead a team of elite soldiers to infiltrate Suo Chao's enemy camp for reconnaissance. They took advantage of the cover of night and quietly approached Suo Chao's camp.

However, when they approached the camp, they found it was quiet and defenseless. Li Chao was puzzled, but still led the team forward cautiously.

Suddenly, a burst of shouts and countless arrows rained down on them. Li Chao was shocked and quickly ordered his soldiers to fight back.

During the fierce battle, Li Chao discovered that these enemies were not ordinary soldiers, but well-trained elites. He realized that he had underestimated the enemy and immediately ordered a retreat.

But it was too late. All around them, shouts of killing shook the heavens. Suo's army, like a tidal wave, quickly closed in, tightly surrounding them. Li Chao looked around, his face grim, his eyes revealing despair and unyielding determination. He gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, veins bulging on the back of his hand, and sweat trickled down his cheeks.

Suo Chao rode his tall horse and slowly came in front of Li Chao. He looked down at Li Chao, with a smug smile on his face.

Suo Chao stroked his beard lightly and said slowly:

"General Li, I want to reorganize King Chuang's army. What do you think?"

Li Chao's eyes widened in anger as he glared at Suo Chao fiercely. He snorted coldly and said loudly:

"Hmph! I would rather be the tail of a phoenix than the head of a chicken. King Chuang will not surrender to anyone." He puffed out his chest and raised his chin, showing his stubbornness and arrogance.

Suo Chao led his enemy general, Li Chao, on a tour of his own army of over 100,000 men. Li Chao was stunned. Suo Chao's new army was fully equipped with armor and weapons, many of them battle-hardened veterans of the Kushan army. This strength was far beyond the reach of the rebels.

Li Chao was helpless. The Suo army was too powerful. As a messenger between the two armies, he was sent back to the Chuang army camp. As for whether his uncle Li Zicheng would agree to Suo Chao's proposal, only God knew.
