It was not until noon that Chongzhen woke up.

One thing that happened after waking up was to call the cabinet masters and the six ministers of the ministers to the imperial study room.

Chongzhen sat in the main seat of the imperial study room, his face pale and his eyes were covered with red blood.

Obviously, Chongzhen had not fully recovered at this time.

"Do you all know the 800 miles of emergency sent by Guide Mansion?" Chongzhen looked at the ministers in the imperial study room and asked.

"Your Majesty, I already know. Not only us, but also the people in the entire capital know about this."

The chief minister of the cabinet, Zhang Zhifa, stood up, looked at Chongzhen sitting on it, and said with a embarrassed look on his face.

"The whole capital knows?" Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Who leaked this news? How could the whole capital know?"

To be honest, Chongzhen didn't want this news to be conveyed at all. As for the reason, it was very simple, because once such news was conveyed, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to the people in the capital.

Faced with Chongzhen's accusation, the officials in the imperial study remained silent.

"Why are you mute? Talking? Who spread this news?" Chongzhen's face was so gloomy that water dripped out.

After a long time, Chongzhen's face gradually calmed down.

It’s not that Chongzhen didn’t want to investigate who spread the news, but that the rice has now been cooked.

If you check at this time, you will inevitably make the already panic-city capital even more panic.

It’s not that Chongzhen doesn’t want to investigate, but that he can’t check it at this time. Even if he checks, he has to do it secretly.

"The Zhao thief has taken it down from Kaifeng Prefecture. It won't take long for the entire Henan to be captured by the Zhao thief.

My dear friends, do you have any solutions?” Chongzhen rubbed his temples and said helplessly.

The ministers below look at me, look at you, and no one speaks. Even the chief minister of the cabinet, Zhang Zhifa, was silent and silent.

For the officials below, Zhao Wen was able to take Henan in a short time, and his previous performances mean that Zhao Wen is already an invincible existence.

Zhao Wen is invincible. What can they do? What can they do? Nothing can be done.

Chongzhen looked at the crowd who didn't say a word and became annoyed instantly.

"You guys take the salary from the court. When the court encounters difficulties, you will become like this." Chongzhen questioned the ministers below, and spoke fiercely.

However, the officials below did not say anything because of Chongzhen's questioning. They still lowered their heads and remained silent.

Chongzhen looked at these officials and felt upset, "You go down. After you go down, let's discuss it carefully. I will see your memorial before tomorrow afternoon. There must be a way to deal with Zhao Wen in the memorial. If not, you can do it."

Chongzhen shook his sleeves, stood up, and went straight back.

These officials couldn't make a fortune for a long time, and Chongzhen had no choice but to do anything. Could it be that they were still spending time with these people?

When Chongzhen left, the officials in the imperial study room walked out of the imperial study room in groups of three or three.

...

The sky gradually became darker, and Kaifeng Mansion became calmer.

However, the people who received the food still couldn't calm down their mood.

After all, they have never encountered such a thing.

At the same time, the King of Zhou, his son and most of the King of Zhou's family were also captured by Zhao Wen's troops.

Now Kaifeng Prefecture is strictly blocked by Zhao Wen's troops, and it is not too rare to catch King Zhou and others.

In the palace hall of the Zhou royal palace, the Zhou king and others were tied up in various ways and knelt in the center of the hall.

In addition to those from the King of Zhou, there are also people from the King of Lu.

Around them were the soldiers escorting them.

Zhao Wen stood in front of King Zhou and others, and looked at King Zhou quietly.

"Zhao Zizi, what do you want to do? I will tell you, don't look at what you do now, when the imperial army arrives, you will inevitably be defeated by the imperial court. At that time, I will see what you do."

King Zhou glared at Zhao Wen standing in front of him and shouted loudly.

The King of Zhou was a brave man, unlike King Fu of Jin, who dared to scold Zhao Wen in front of Zhao Wen.

As for Lu Wang Zhu Changqing, he knelt aside with panic expression, trembling and did not dare to look directly at Zhao Wen.

"The imperial army? Do you think there is still a large army in the court now? You know what the imperial court looks like today if I don't tell you." Zhao Wen shook his head, then looked at Li Xiaosan, "Take King Zhou, King Lu and others down, and deal with it as before, King Fu of Jin."

Although the King of Zhou is much better than King of Jin Fu, Zhao Wen cannot let him go for this reason. After all, this is a matter of position.

"As for your order!" Li Xiaosan bowed to Zhao Wengong, and then took King Zhou and others down.

After King Zhou went down, Zhao Wen also returned to the backyard of the royal mansion to rest.

Zhao Wen has been in Kaifeng Prefecture for several days, so Zhao Wen plans to send troops to Guide Prefecture the next day to take down Guide Prefecture.

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was still dark. Zhao Wen's troops walked out of Kaifeng Prefecture in the darkness and advanced towards Guide Prefecture.

When leaving, Zhao Wen left two hundred soldiers in Kaifeng Prefecture who maintained local order.

At the same time, Song Hu has also taken down the county towns around Kaifeng Prefecture, and the entire Kaifeng Prefecture has basically fallen into Zhao Wen's hands.

Zhao Wen's army finally arrived outside the city of Guide Mansion after about five days.

Originally, Zhao Wen couldn't spend so much time, but Zhao Wen came along, and the counties along the way were basically all in sight. Zhao Wen spent a lot of time when he took over these county towns.

Zhao Wen rode a war horse and looked at the Guide Mansion City in front of him, saying, "Guide Mansion City cannot be compared with Kaifeng City. If you pass the order, you will attack the city today."

Li Xiaosan hurriedly conveyed Zhao Wen's order.

Half an hour later, Zhao Wen's troops set up in formation and prepared to attack the city.

It was similar to when siege before, but this time it was still siege from all directions and bombarded the city wall with cannons first.

Because there were very few defenders in Guide Mansion City, the artillery only bombed for less than a quarter of an hour.

After the artillery bombardment, gaps appeared on the city walls on all sides, and Zhao Wen's troops rushed in.

An hour later, Guide Mansion fell, and Zhao Wen also entered the city of Guide Mansion. When the city was broken, Guide Mansion committed suicide at the magistrate's office in Guide Mansion, and Tongzhi also committed suicide and sacrificed his country.

As for the remaining officials, they were captured by Zhao Wen.

It is May now, and it is June now.

After June, it is summer and the weather begins to get hotter.

Zhao Wen was wearing a single dress and stood on the bumpy city wall of Guide Mansion, looking at the scenery in the distance.

Li Xiaosan stood behind Zhao Wen, "Sir, the results of the battle have been counted. During this war, our army was injured thirteen people, including three seriously injured, and the rest were slightly injured.

The three seriously injured people were hit in the head by bricks falling from the city wall when they rushed into the city wall. The minor injury was caused by accident.

As for the defenders in the city, three hundred people were killed and seven hundred were captured. According to the captive officers, the defenders in Guide Mansion, along with the young and strong men, had a total of 1,200 people."

"I already know this and ordered the military doctors in the army to treat these injured soldiers.

As for those prisoners, after dawn tomorrow, people will be sent to Shanxi." Zhao Wen said.

"Abide by the order!"

Time passes slowly, and night gradually falls.

Zhao Wen's troops kept patrolling in Guide Mansion City, maintaining order in Guide Mansion.

The next day, the soldiers captured in Guide Mansion were also taken to Shanxi.

At this time, Zhao Wen also divided the troops in his hands into several parts, allowing them to leave the city, and attacked the county towns around Guide Mansion with Guide Mansion as the center.

In addition to the troops in Zhao Wen's hands, Song Hu's troops were also attacking the remaining county towns in Guide Prefecture.

The Guide Prefecture in the Ming Dynasty had seven counties and one prefecture under its jurisdiction. Because Sun Chuanting had previously recruited troops from various prefectures and counties in Henan, the number of defenders in these prefectures and counties under the Guide Prefecture was very small.

Almost ten days later, Zhao Wen's troops took down the entire territory of Guide Prefecture.

After taking down all the entire Guide Prefecture, Zhao Wen left behind the soldiers who maintained order, he led the troops to Shanxi.

Now Zhao Wen's attack route has been broken through by Zhao Wen, and it is not suitable to stay here.

When Zhao Wen came back to the Yellow River defense line, the remaining two troops also completed the tasks arranged by Zhao Wen.

At this point, the entire Henan area was taken down by Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen led a large army to Huaiqing Prefecture City on the edge of the Yellow River Defense Line.

Zhao Wen stayed here for almost six or seven days. After the other two groups of troops arrived, Zhao Wen led the army back to Taiyuan Prefecture.

Now that Henan Prefecture has been taken down, Zhao Daniu has also taken down Guanzhong and southern Shaanxi, and is attacking northern Shaanxi. It will not take long to capture the entire Shaanxi area.

As for Liu Wu, he has also taken down Chengdu and the area north of Chengdu and is leading his troops to attack south.

Sichuan has mountainous roads, and Liu Wu has been in Sichuan for a short time, so the speed is the slowest.

For Zhao Wen now, Sichuan and Shaanxi will be taken down within two months.

The war is coming to an end, and what should be done is about to be completed. The most urgent task now is to ascend the throne.

In mid-June, Zhao Wen arrived at Taiyuan Prefecture. After two days of rest in Taiyuan Prefecture, Zhao Wen took the train to Xuan Town.

Those who went back with Zhao Wen were Lu Xiangsheng, Song Hu, Li Xiaosan and others, as well as Zhao Wen's personal guard camp. As for the remaining troops, Zhao Wen was left in Taiyuan Prefecture by Zhao Wen.
