Let. Mali. Dayo, Olivier. Morality. Piman, these are the two French officers who are standing next to Ye Kai.

Which lets. Mali. Twenty-nine years old this year, a thin, middle-aged officer with bright eyes, was the commander of the fleet personally recruited by Ye Kai from France, and the first person in history to survey and organize hydrographic data from various parts of Vietnam.

And Olivier. Morality. Piman is a nineteen-year-old young officer, but despite his youth, his military career is not short, and he is extremely talented!

He was originally a volunteer on a French warship in the Far East, but under the persuasion of Peter, he joined Nguyen Phuc Anh's camp, although he was mixed on the ship, but in fact Olivier was good at the army.

Historically, these two were the basis for Nguyen Phuc Anh to be restored. Mali. Dayo was responsible for training the navy of the Quang Nam people and commanded three Western-style warships.

Olivier trained an all-Western army of 50,000 men in British uniforms, including a large artillery force.

Although these servicemen did not have enough flintlock pistols and field guns at their disposal, it is certain that they were the most successful Western-style army in the Far East at that time.

The British missionaries commented on them that they were far superior to the red-headed Asanjun army trained by the British themselves, and even if the British went into battle on their own, they could only defeat the Quang Nam army by three to four times the size of the Quang Nam army if they were well armed.

You must know that when the British missionaries made this assessment, Olivier had been dead for almost thirty years, and the British were about to go north to the Qing Dynasty, according to the ratio of one dozen ten, one dozen twenty, to deal with the Manchu Green Battalion and the Eight Banners.

Historically, these two have also given Vietnamese names, Jean. Mali. Dayo is called Nguyen Van Chi and Olivier is called Nguyen Van Sin.

Of course, now, such an important person, Ye Kai will definitely not give it to Ruan Fuying, this is a rare officer talent!

Although there are many French officers on Ye Kai's side, except for Oudino, to be honest, the others are just big ones picked out of the shorts.

Even the emperor's predecessor, Louis. Colonel Gaston, he is not at all fit to be the commander of a regiment, at best at the level of an artillery company commander.

。。。。

In Gemao City, the tent of the big military camp, Ruan Fuying's face was flushed with excitement, not only because thousands of people came to vote, but also because Ruan Wenzhang, who came over from Ruan Lu's side, brought him an amazing good news!

In May of this year, a fierce conflict broke out between the two brothers, Nguyen Ngak and Nguyen Huy, and now they are still in a confrontation, and now only the puppet Dong Dinh king Nguyen Dinh is left to rule the hometown of Quang Nam.

And Ruan Lu, to be honest, is not outstanding in talent, he belongs to the kind of people who make up the number among the three brothers in Xishan.

Just like the Rengong general Zhang Liangzhi is to Zhang Jiao and Zhang Bao, he has no ability and no sense of existence!

The Nguyen family's hometown under his rule was also unstable, the peasants hated the excessive taxation of the Xishan army, the officials sent were too greedy, and the gentry simply thought that this guy was a mud leg and looked down on him at all.

And now, Deng Wenzhen, the general under Ruan Lu, was recalled by Ruan Yue to fight against Ruan Hui.

The one who can fight a little bit in the entire land of Guangnan is the Taifu Fan Wenshen under Ruan Lu, and the current Ruan Lu is relying on Fan Wenshen and sticking to Jiading City.

"Shu Wu! You've come just in time! Longchuan is only more than 300 miles away from Jiading, General Huang and all of you persuaded me to take advantage of the rebel Ruan Lu's failure to react and go straight to Jiading, what do you think? ”

As soon as he entered the tent, Ruan Fuying asked Ye Kai with a smile.

Ye Kai pretended to nod his head, but he was complaining in his heart, you have gathered all the officers and officials to discuss, now come and ask me what I think, can I still say no fighting?

And in fact, Ye Kai also felt that Jiading should be beaten, because Jiading City was one of the three big cities in the previous Quang Nam regime, and now there are thousands of people to vote, if Jiading is defeated, it will definitely attract more followers of Ruan Phuc Anh.

What's more, Ruan Lu is a standard "soft persimmon", who will he fight if he doesn't beat him?

。。。。

Gia Dinh is the Ho Chi Minh City of the later generations, to be precise, he is part of the Ho Chi Minh City of the later generations.

The complete Ho Chi Minh City should be added to Ye Kai's fiefdom Saigon, that is, the firewood sticks he first went to find Ho Xi Van for the first time, these two places are not far apart, and the later Greater Ho Chi Minh City is composed of these two places.

Jiading City, Quang Nam Imperial Palace, which used to be the residence of the Nguyen Phuc Anh family, has now become the residence of Nguyen Lu's Dong Dinh Palace.

And Ruan Lu, the king of Dongding, was sitting on a bench with a sad face, and two coolly dressed maids behind him were fanning a huge brocade fan for him.

However, although it is relatively hot today, in fact, the maids don't need to fan the wind at all, because Ruan Lu's heart is colder than the cold winter wax moon!

Because of his elder brother, the Central Emperor, what a broken title! Ruan Yue and his younger brother Ruan Hui, the king of Beiping, were meeting each other, and his mediocre second brother was caught in the middle.

Their family business in the Xishan Dynasty was first pulled up by his elder brother Ruan Yue's name in the countryside.

But in fact, to make the Tay Son Dynasty bigger, and to be able to defeat the two regimes that had existed for more than 100 years, North Zheng Nan Nguyen, and unify Annam, it was the talent of his younger brother Nguyen Hue.

Now that the elder brother and the younger brother are fighting, no matter who loses or wins, what is lost is the strength of the Xishan Dynasty, and he will definitely not be able to please him, because no matter who wins, he will definitely complain that Ruan Lu does not help him.

What made Ruan Lu's heart even more frightened was that Ruan Fuying, the lord of the Southern Ruan Kingdom who seemed to never be defeated or killed, was back!

According to the reports of officials from all over the country, it was said that there were overwhelming Western ships carrying thousands of troops and horses that had landed in Longchuan, and even the annoying He Xiwen on Kunlun Island had been dispatched!

"Hasn't Taifu come yet? It's been an hour since Lone sent someone to summon him, right? The more he thought about it, the more frightened Ruan Lu turned his head and asked the little yellow door beside him.

Xiao Huangmen nodded flatteringly, "Back to the prince, it's been an hour and a half, and I think Taifu is definitely busy with state affairs, and it's a little delayed!" ”

Taifu Fan Wenshen, like Taiwei Deng Wenzhen, who has been transferred away by Ruan Yue, is the right and left hand under Ruan Lu, the king of Dongding, but these two hands do not listen to the call of his body at all, and they are not what he wants.

Taiwei Deng Van Zhen was sent to him by his brother Nguyen Yue to take charge of the palace guards and the electors of the provinces around Jiading.

Taifu Fan Wenshen was recommended by his younger brother Ruan Hui, the king of Beiping, to implement civil affairs for him, dividing the officials, persuading farmers and mulberries and the defenders in charge of Jiading City.

Okay! This brother and younger brother are really caring, and they are afraid that he will be tired, so they will find someone to do everything for him.

And he, the titular ruler, the noble prince of Dongding, only needs to drink wine, eat meat, and create people in the palace!

"Lord Wang! Rajah! An old man dressed in a green civil attire with a few strands of gray hair on his chin hurried over.

This is one of Ruanlu's old Taishan, as for the specific name, uh, His Royal Highness the King of Dongding can't remember too clearly, because there are dozens of his old Taishan!

Ruan Lu only remembered that he was the same as himself, originally surnamed Hu, and he still had a little kinship with their family.

The people of Annam like to change their surname, and their surname is confused, especially no matter what the surname, they like to change their surname to Nguyen.

In terms of generation, this old guy should be his grandfather's generation, but after so many years, the Hu Dynasty has passed hundreds of years now, and his bloodline has long faded.

So he didn't care about this matter, Ruan Lu married his Yuanyuanfang aunt without any psychological barriers, and Old Man Hu also recognized his Yuanyuanfang nephew and grandson as his son-in-law with peace of mind.

"Don't shout, just play if you have something, why be sneaky!" Ruan Lu said lightly, Old Man Hu's mysterious appearance made him very uncomfortable, and Ruan Lu always felt a little ironic about this prince.

Rajah? What prince? The prince who can't get out of the Jiading Palace?
