On that day, the remnants of the Chen family of Annan and the people of Annan were deeply dissatisfied with the retrograde of the Hu father and son, and as soon as our army arrived, the followers were like a tide, and in the fifth year of Yongle, our army destroyed the Hu pseudo-rebellion, and the Hu father and son were escorted back to Jinling. Because the clan of the Chen Dynasty was killed by the Hu clan and there was no successor, Annan was accepted as the territory of our dynasty, and the address was set up to command the embassy department, the address and other places to announce the political envoy and the address to be sentenced according to the official office of the prosecutor and envoy, and it was directly under its jurisdiction.

However, I still can't obey Annan's long-term rebellion. In the fourth year of Yongle, as soon as our army returned to the dynasty, Jian Ding, Deng Xi, Ruan Shuai and others rebelled again. Attacking Pantan and Xianziguan and controlling the traffic of Sanjiang Province, the people of Annam in Cilian, Weiman, Shanghong, Datang, Yingping, Shimur and other places responded one after another, and the suppression of our Korean garrison was ineffective, resulting in the continuous spread of rebellion. After Jian Ding raised troops, he proclaimed himself the king of Rinan, and then in order to attract people's hearts, he set up the so-called Chen Ji, a descendant of the Chen family, as the emperor of Dayue, and changed the Yuan to regain light.

This time, our emperor transferred Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan to command the envoys and the three guards of Chengdu with a total of 40,000 people, and Mu Sheng led the Zhengyi General Seal and then conquered Annan, but the battle situation was very unfavorable this time. In December, Mu Sheng fought fiercely with the Annan rebels in the Shengju River, and suffered a crushing defeat due to the light enemy, Liu Jun, the military secretary of the counselor's military affairs, failed to break through the siege and died by himself.

In the sixth year of Yongle, our emperor recruited Zhang Fu to re-enter Annan to quell the rebellion, Zhang Fu was confident, the situation in Annan was like watching the fire, the army was like a bamboo, leading the army to Cilian Prefecture, breaking the Menjiang River, Keguangwei Prefecture Kongmuzha, and defeating the Annan army at Xianzi Pass. The Annan rebel army gathered more than 600 warships and retired to the southeast bank of the river. Zhang Fu led his generals Chen Xu and others to attack with naval divisions, rode the wind and set fires, broke the crowd, and captured more than 200 of his generals. Pursued to Taiping Haikou, Annan general Ruan Jingyi met the battle with 300 warships, and was broken by the Ming army. In November, Zhang Fu took advantage of the great victory over Yu Wei, sent the commander Zhu Rong, Cai Fu and others to lead the infantry cavalry advanced, since the Zhou division as the successor, from the Yellow River to the Shentou Sea, the division in Qinghua, and then parted ways into the Lei River, repeatedly defeated the rebels, captured the culprit Jian Ding alive in the Meiliang Mountain, and sent to the Beijing division together with his henchmen, in January of the following year, Zhang Fu leveled the chaos in other places, beheaded thousands of people, and built the Jingguan to subdue the people of Annam.

However, at this time, our army was attacked by the Mongol army when it was in the northern expedition to Ben Shan Yali, and Qiu Fu, the Duke of Qi, Wang Cong, the Marquis of Wucheng, the Marquis of Tong'an, the Marquis of Tong'an, the Marquis of Jing'an, Wang Zhong, and the Marquis of Anping, Li Yuan, were all in battle. Our emperor was shocked and saw that Annan had been pacified, so he summoned Zhang Fu back to the north to conquer Mongolia.

However, Zhang Fu's first class, the governor Huang Zhong, was arrogant, and he was tyrannical in Annan, provoking a popular uprising, and Annan rebelled. In the spring of this year, the British minister Zhang Fu was ordered to conquer Annan for the third time. ”

Han Li listened to Master Jiang's explanation of the situation in Zhancheng and Annam, and carefully inspected it against the map. While frowning and pondering. After a while, he instructed Master Jiang: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for solving my doubts, I have some ideas about the battle of Annam, and I want to go to Jinling to discuss with my uncle, please arrange it." ”

This Mr. Jiang is one of the henchmen of the old man, and he knows the identity of Han Que, so he has deep respect for Han Que, and at this time he bent down and arched his hand: "Don't dare to be a young master Xie, this is a matter of Jiang's share." Young Master Han Oak and wait a while, and go to someone to pass the message. ”

Han Oak nodded and thanked him: "Okay, I still need some people and some items, please try to find them for me." He gave Mr. Jiang a pre-written list, and Mr. Jiang looked at it with a slight change of color, but still respectfully responded: "Within three days, people and items will be delivered." ”

Han Li nodded with satisfaction, no wonder this Mr. Jiang can be his uncle's number one henchman, this city is not comparable to Xu Er.

Seven days later, the red-eyed Han Oak and the Sixth Master of the Sea entered Beijing by boat. This time, the bow of the ship hung out "Guogong Mansion. Su" red lantern, all the way whether it is a merchant ship or an official ship, all see one after another, so the speed of the ship is extremely fast, the second afternoon, Han Oak again boarded the dock of Haijiazhuang.

After Han Oak saw Hai Lao Guogong, he retreated from the people, and the first thing he said was: "Uncle, I want to go to occupy the city." ”

Hai Lao Guogong didn't seem to be surprised by Han Que's words at all, he sighed, and said to Han Que: "I know you're worried about your uncle, but think about it, since he can still send a message, his safety should be safe." Now that Annan occupies the city of Zhenla, there are many soldiers in trouble, how much role can you play if you go as a child? On the contrary, it makes the family worry and worry. If you have another accident, will your grandmother's body still be able to survive? Ever since you asked for a map of Annam, I knew you were going to occupy the city. I just tell you, if you want to run secretly, with your heart, you estimate that your sixth uncle will not be able to prevent you, but before you leave, you must first think about whether your grandmother and mother can put your mind at ease? ”

He saw Han Que bowing his head and was silent, and then sighed: "My only hope now is you and your ninth uncle, since he is in danger, I am his own father, how can I not worry?" But if you fall into it again, don't you make me more anxious? I know that you have always had a lot of ideas, so it is better to say your thoughts, it is really feasible, I will send Mr. Chiang to take people to occupy the city, he is thoughtful, and he also has some friendship with the British duke, and he is also familiar with the situation in Annam. With him going to Annam, you come up with ideas at home, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds, what do you think? ”

Han Li was helpless, thinking that he would not be able to leave, so he had to take out the map he was carrying, spread it out on the bookcase of the old prince, and pointed to the location of Zhancheng: "I think that since my uncle is occupying the city now, it must be that Princess Zhenzhu can't survive in Zhenla, and she and her uncle are living in Zhancheng." It's just that Champa is not peaceful now, and if you want your uncle to gain a firm foothold in Champa, you must solve Annam's threat to Champang.

Now that the British are conquering Annam, it is a good time to solve the worries of the city. If someone can open the passage between Annam and Champ, and the uncle and the British duke can flank the rebels on both sides, presumably the British duke will get twice the result with half the effort. I would like to ask my uncle to help me deliver something to my uncle in Champah,"

He said to Haiguo: "Since my uncle wants Mr. Jiang to go, then invite him to come over too, and I will show my uncle something." ”

Half a day later, Hai Guogong and his party rode to a mountain col far away from the people, and made their henchmen guard the intersection far away. Han Oak had just someone carefully carry a box down from the wagon. When I opened it, there were several ceramic balls and a few things that looked like firebolts.

There is a thin rope on the top of the ball, and the end is connected to this small iron ring, and everyone knows it when modern people see it, this is a simple version of the grenade. Quercus worked tirelessly with the craftsmen for a few days, and only a dozen pieces were successfully trial-produced.
