King Anton of the Khmer has been in a bad mood lately, and he has been sleeping badly, often counting nights and even sleepless.

Anton's ancestor, Anon, first became king more than 200 years ago, and the throne has changed hands several times since then.

Every time the throne changes, it is accompanied by bloody storms, how many heads fall to the ground, and how many families are ruined.

It was not until Annon II came to power about a hundred years ago that the stability of the throne was maintained, and it was passed into his hands.

In addition to the life-and-death struggle for the throne, the Khmer has been surrounded by enemies from all sides from history to the present, bordering strong neighbors Annam, Lao Vortex and Siam, and the other meaning of the border is to be an enemy.

Originally, the Khmer could go directly to the sea, but now it has been seized by Annam, and the Khmer has been turned into a purely landlocked country.

Even the Mekong River, the water artery, can only lead to Annam, as it flows through the Lower Khmer to the sea.

Domestic and external difficulties, wind and rain, whether it is the national situation or mood, Anton is in this state.

He had become numb to these things, and he no longer had trouble sleeping, but the recent developments had made him so worried that he could not sleep well.

A large army that entered from Annam has broken through several layers of defense and is approaching Phnom Penh!

For a few days he was discussing with his ministers in the DPRK and China to provide assistance for the defense of the Eastern Front, but from early morning to afternoon, there was no decent way to propose it.

This can't be blamed on the incompetence of the ministers, and it is difficult for the clever woman to cook without rice, and the already stretched royal finances cannot be turned into real money no matter how they are discussed.

Anton was annoyed. Suddenly, I heard a shout: "Report! There is an urgent military situation!"

These people all raised their heads and looked at the person who came, it turned out that he was a subordinate of the Minister of Military Aircraft, who was in charge of intelligence work, and everyone was familiar with him, because they had recently heard his urgent reports one after another.

I don't know what kind of emergency it is, so it's inevitable that it will be mysterious, right? Everyone speculated in their hearts.

"Newspaper - the army of Annam has surrounded the capital on all sides!" Bao Xi took a breath and clearly told these high-ranking figures what had happened.

But he didn't know how urgent the situation was, but he also knew that these almost numb old gentlemen were nothing more than empty talk. I can't come up with any effective solutions.

"Ah!" the king was shocked. Since he was forced to move the capital from Angkor to Phnom Penh, there has never been a case of being forced to the capital by the enemy, and more than half of the financial revenue has been spent on army building over the years.

In particular, special attention was paid to the eastern road to block the invasion of Annam. Eighty percent of military spending is spent in that direction.

Why is there a big problem with the direction that is most important now? Let the Annam invaders reach the outside of the capital? Will the capital be able to stop them?

The sweat on Anton's face flowed down with a snort!

The expressions of the other ministers, who had been stunned, were now colorful—frightened, anxious, panicked!

No one can sit still!

Anton is still slightly better. He also knew that the Tao was a blessing or a curse, that it was a disaster that could not be avoided, and that it was useless to be in a hurry and panic, so he said to everyone: "Since everyone has stood up, don't sit back." Let's go to the city walls!"

At this time, in the Chinese military tent in the camp outside the city, Mai Ke was receiving a guest, who was introduced to Mai Ke by Mei Han.

Although Mei Han has left the palace, he has been in contact with the head of Ouchi, Gong Lu, especially in preparation for the alliance meeting at the end of the year. Another important task is to cooperate with the Celestial Expeditionary Force to subdue the royal family of the target country.

Therefore, as soon as the two discussed, they sent the Khmer representative in the Qing Dynasty, of course, before that, everything that should have been explained to him clearly.

The name of this representative is Binli, and he is also a descendant of a large family, but he belongs to a defeated side branch, otherwise he would not have embarked on this path.

Of course, Bin Li is full of hope for a good future now, and he is not unfamiliar when he sees Mai Ke, because he has already seen Mai Ke when he was in the North Longitude.

As soon as he saw Mai Ke, he came up with a smile and shook hands with him, and said: "Welcome Lao Mai to my hometown!

Although Mai Ke has a super strong memory, it still took a lot of effort to dig out a little memory, remembering that this old man seemed to be similar, so he also shook hands with him and said: "You are Binli! Xie Lu Xie Lao Bin came thousands of miles to help us!"

In fact, it was said that it was not far away, but it didn't take him any effort on his own, and it was Mai Ke who transferred him with a spiritual move. However, he is grateful for having such a willingness to help.

Binli continued to smile: "Old Mai, don't talk about it." It's no problem to help, I'll do my best. That one...... There's no problem with the revival of the country, right?"

Binli confirmed tentatively while guaranteeing the ticket.

"No problem! Wrap it up on me!" Of course, Mai Ke was not lacking in boldness, and immediately gave him a guarantee.

"Then if I'm done with these things, I'll do them right away......" Bin Li said eagerly.

Mai Ke's heart was full of sympathy, according to wisdom, he should put this matter at the bottom, but he did not want to base his success on the pain of others, and immediately said: "Don't wait until the aftermath, I will give you recovery surgery now!"

Great happiness struck Binli, and his clever tongue now seemed to be tightly tied, but his gratitude could not be expressed! His heart had flown to the place where he had been waiting for his bosom lover - Sponge Tree, you wait for me, I will go to see you today!

Before his dream was over, Mai Ke had already patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay!

This was to be put aside in the past, who said that he was fighting with whom, and now when he heard Mai Ke say this, his tears flowed down.

Then, Mai Ke personally sent him into the city and did his business according to the plan.

It was also at this time that Mai Ke saw the king leading a group of people towards the city wall, but there was no royal guard of honor, and the others did not have a high car gate, just a yellow umbrella, covering the first person to show his identity.

Although the Khmer is not a big state, except for the royal family, the vain use of yellow is also a great crime, so under the umbrella of Huang Luo, there must be no doubt that he is the king.

At the same time, in the original Lower Khmer region, the southernmost territory of what is now Annam, Yang Wei, the mayor of Jiading, the holy city of heaven, was leading a large army to attack, and this was already the most refuge of the original Annam regime.

On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly!

Yang Wei was thinking about this land from the beginning, and constantly prepared to occupy it, until recently Mai Ke told him that in order to cooperate with the occupation of Khmer, he could march into Khmer!

Therefore, the long-planned cleaning plan was immediately triggered, and Yang Wei was already under the Khmer horizontal knife! (To be continued......
