Few of those who can stand in the court are stupid, but they have to be stupid because of various entanglements in the past.

Now that the rebels are becoming more powerful, the emperor has to take charge of the government.

How could these people not know how to choose?

All the court officials expressed their anger and thoughts to the emperor, and the public was excited for a while.

The anger of the crowd gradually calmed down the originally angry emperor.

He also knew that he could no longer follow the previous path of waiting for the army to encircle him and taking the opportunity to train his troops to achieve some political goals.

Otherwise, once the rebels really gain strength, let alone achieving any political goals, it is hard to say whether the Daqian court will remain stable!

We must not allow the rebels in Yangzhou to gradually encroach upon and expand in the Jiangnan area.

If the elves take it seriously and are taken away by the rebels, the consequences will be disastrous.

Then the emperor issued an order,

The counties, towns and villages around Yangzhou Prefecture should immediately implement the strategy of clearing the countryside and fortifying the city. No one is allowed to enter or leave Yangzhou. Violators will be treated as traitors!

He ordered the Duke of Zhenguo to immediately lead the Shenji Camp of Guide Prefecture and the 50,000 troops dispatched by the court from the Beijing Camp to the south of Haizhou, recover lost territory along the way, and attack the Yangzhou Prefecture City directly, resolutely not giving the rebels any chance to breathe.

At the same time, he ordered the 60,000 troops assembled in Anhui from the Huguang area to immediately advance eastward to Yangzhou Prefecture.

The court re-arranged the generals of the 50,000-strong army assembled in Anqing Prefecture to lead the troops northward to attack Hangzhou Prefecture, and must recapture it as well as Suzhou Prefecture, Zhenjiang Prefecture, etc.

As for Wang Ziteng, who had only 50,000 imperial guards left in Nanjing, he did not order him to send out any more troops.

Instead, he was ordered to lead 50,000 imperial troops to defend the city of Jinling and firmly wed them in the south of Yangzhou, the heartland of the rebel forces.

If Jinling were to be lost before the decisive battle between the imperial army and the rebels in Qingfeng Village,

A Nine Clans Elimination Game set meal was arranged for Wang Ziteng.

Just in case,

The retired emperor also issued an order to draw between one thousand and five thousand troops from all prefectures across the country to reunite the army and gather towards Yangzhou.

At the beginning of the war, he was already prepared for the possibility that the Duke of Zhenguo would be unsuccessful in suppressing the bandits.

If the Duke of Zhenguo succeeds in suppressing the bandits, then the assembled army will immediately reorganize and head north to fight back against the Tartars.

No one in the entire Daqian dared to disobey the order of the Supreme Emperor, especially when the stability of the country was at stake.

As the imperial edicts from the court were sent at an expedited speed of 800 miles, they quickly spread throughout the country.

For a time, the whole Daqian was in turmoil, and the huge court machinery immediately began to operate efficiently and quickly.

……

At the same time, Qingfeng Village was also busy.

After learning the news, Li Qingfeng immediately deployed corresponding strategic responses, and a war with the imperial court was about to break out.

Originally, Qingfeng Li wanted to use the hundreds of thousands of troops he had.

And all 100,000 captives were transformed into his elite troops, all equipped with Type 38 rifles, so as to achieve the goal of crushing the world.

However, after the court fired these rounds of arrows,

Li Qingfeng also truly appreciated the power of the court machinery in these feudal dynasties when it was fully operational.

The war is fought for money, food, soldiers and horses.

Li Qingfeng adopted the route of strengthening the army, even if he only had hundreds of thousands of troops,

According to the training requirements of Qingfeng Village,

The total amount of rations and supplies each soldier needs every day is an astronomical figure.

Especially guns and ammunition.

Yangzhou is not a place rich in resources.

As early as the beginning of the uprising, Li Qingfeng had taken precautions against the possibility that the imperial court would implement measures such as sealing off the borders and clearing the countryside.

He had long ago ordered people to purchase food, fodder, and mineral resources from all over the country through various channels.

Even the iron and copper mines in Yangzhou, as long as they could be mined, were almost completely mined by Li Qingfeng.

But even so, there is still a shortage of a lot of military equipment.
