Chapter 462: The Lost Land Returns Today

Yang Wei was accompanied by Ruan Fuyun, Sotov, Bruce Lee, and an army of 50,000.

Thirty thousand of these 50,000 troops were improvised, and they were all the losers of the last competition for the expeditionary force.

Although he lost, he showed excellent combat skills, so the Khmer was called up by Yang Wei on this expedition.

Bruce Lee was the executive deputy minister of the armed forces of St. Gia Dinh City, and in the absence of Nguyen Sai Minh, he took full responsibility for the duties, and after stabilizing the order of the whole city, he participated in the expedition without any worries.

The 20,000 soldiers and generals he led were the backbone of maintaining law and order in the holy city, and they were drawn out by him as the core military strength of the Khmer under the expedition.

Sotov was the director of education in the Holy City, who had pioneered Catholic participation in politics, and was doing a good job, especially in the field of faith, which was already in full swing, and he was naturally very willing to seize the opportunity of this expedition to the Khmer for the sake of spreading the gospel.

Nguyen Phuc Van was the honorary mayor of St. Gia Dinh, and the former prince's influence on the Khmer was unparalleled, so he was willing to use his spare energy in the process of subduing the Khmer.

With such elite soldiers and strong generals, Yang Weijing is headed, and the cities are looking at the wind.

It only took two days to occupy Xin'an, My Di, Ben Chi, Kaoling, Yonglong, Cha Rong, Longchuan, and Can Li, and other large and small cities also invited themselves to surrender, including the famous cities of Jin'ou, Dishi, and Shuozhuang.

After mastering the entire Lower Khmer, Yang Wei settled and reorganized the newly accepted amount of strength, and at the same time reported the good news to Mai Ke in the first time.

At this time. On the walls of Phnom Penh, King Anton was talking to Mai Ke, who had explained to him the nature and purpose of the expedition.

The main purpose is to clear up a misunderstanding: the expeditionary force is not the army of Annam, but the army of the kingdom of heaven, and the purpose is not to occupy the Khmer for Annam, but to bring everyone together in the kingdom of heaven to work together for God and glorify God.

"I, the Khmer and Annan, have accumulated enmity for many years, and it is difficult to resolve them, and I also understand what you said about the ideal of the kingdom of heaven, but let me convince you that you are not for Annam, can you return the Khmer Rouge to us first, and let the Khmer people believe everything you say?"

The Khmer king groaned for a long time. Raised such a difficult problem to Mai Ke.

Anam invaded and occupied the Lower Khmer. The blockade of the Khmer's access to the sea is the focus of irreconcilable contradictions between the two neighbors, and the key to non-regression, so whether it is really the kingdom of heaven or not. Not for Annan. Try it out with this question.

Of course, Mai Ke is aware of this historical issue. He happened to receive the good news that Yang Wei had recovered the entire territory of Lower Khmer, and immediately said: "What's so difficult then? Now, Lower Khmer has returned to Khmer!"

King Anton was incredulous: "Really?" because according to the information he received. Two days ago, the Khmer was still in the hands of the former ruler of Annam, and the jurisdiction of the so-called holy city had not yet reached there.

Not to mention that these so-called Khmer whips under the heavenly army are beyond the reach of the Khmer whip, even if they are taken back by the holy city, they will also have no chance of returning it, and the area is constantly plastered, and the strategic position is very critical.

So, he couldn't believe his ears, because he thought in his heart that there was no such possibility.

"It's true! I can prove it to you. But I have one condition, if this proves to be true, how about the king submit to the kingdom of heaven?"

The reason why he happily said that he would return the Khmer to the Khmer was, of course, that he knew that he was just going around in circles and would soon come back with the entire Khmer territory, otherwise he would not have bothered with all these troubles.

He did not benefit in this way, because there was no need for the entire Khmer territory to return to heaven sooner or later, and the main purpose of his circle was to settle the feud between the two neighbors.

"Okay! That's it!" Anton replied cheerfully, wondering what method he used to prove it.

Of course, the best way to do it was to see it with your own eyes and take over the Khmer with your own hands, so in the next second, Mai Ke made a move and transported Anton and himself to Yang Wei's camp.

It just so happened that Yang Wei was holding a meeting with the heads of various cities in Lower Khmer, and in addition to the eleven big cities, there were also representatives of dozens of small cities.

Mai Ke led King Anton directly into the venue, came to Yang Wei, introduced Anton to him, and explained the purpose of his visit this time.

Hearing that he wanted to return the Lower Khmer to the Khmer, Yang Wei immediately handed over the keys symbolizing the rights of each city to Anton and said: "Okay! Now the goods are returned to their original owners!"

These keys are also what he has collected today, and one of the contents of the meeting of the city lords here is to hand over the keys of the city lord, whether the next city lord is still him, and he needs to obey the decision of the kingdom of heaven.

When Tseng Dao returned to the Lower Khmer, about ten city lords immediately objected.

Mai Ke replied on the spot: "Everyone can object! If anyone objects, they can register with Mayor Yang Wei, and then the next city lord will choose another Gao Ming." Everyone hurry up and register, and when the registration is over, you can go first, because anything discussed below has nothing to do with you!"

Yang Wei smiled secretly in his heart, you oppose it, you oppose it! The more you oppose it, the better.

But they shouted, "Come! Those who register, please come to the front!"

There were more than a dozen people who shouted and disagreed, but only one registered in the fight, but he took a few steps forward, and when he saw that he had become the commander of the bare pole, he stopped, looked left and right, and returned to his seat.

"No one has registered? I seem to have heard someone shouting disagree? Could it be that I am old and deaf and have misheard? Since no one has registered, this official record shall prevail, and I hope there is no mistake this time. I would now like to give you a few words from the king. ”

Anton turned out that the key was quite excited, and finally lived up to the hopes of his predecessors and took back this homeland! But seeing Mai Ke's methods to those city lords, his excitement gradually subsided, and he remembered the bet with Mai Ke.

After all, it will all belong to the kingdom of heaven! This is fine, otherwise if you take the Khmer today, you may lose the Khmer Rouge tomorrow!

So he ascended to the pulpit and said to all the lords, "Don't be discouraged, everyone, for you have only been under my name for a few minutes. I am here to officially declare: The Khmer Nation will submit to the Kingdom of Heaven! You and I will be the same people of the Kingdom of Heaven!"

Mai Ke didn't expect that this king brother would be so simple, and he would fulfill his promise before he could go back.

He walked forward, shook Anton's hand and said, "Welcome brother on behalf of the kingdom of heaven!" and then turned to everyone and said, "Welcome to all city lords as well!"

After speaking, Mai Ke instructed Yang Wei to continue his affairs here, and then he and Anton went back to Phnom Penh.

When he arrived at the city wall where Phnom Penh had just left, the Khmer king declared on the spot that the entire Khmer had been surrendered to the Kingdom of Heaven, and that there would be no Khmer Kingdom but only the people of the Kingdom of Heaven. (To be continued......)
