Chapter 356: Ahsan's Allies
1 out of 10?
Behind the stove, Ahsan quickly thought about it in his heart.
No way!
The young master has at least twenty or thirty thousand people, and Ruan Hui can mobilize two hundred thousand people?
Dream on!
In the small place of Zhongqi, 200,000 people were conscripted as soldiers, and people could eat Ruan Hui down by eating horses and feeding them along the way.
Unless it's just a long time, and the farmer is entrapped to be a soldier, but what is the use of such a soldier, let alone 200,000, even 400,000?
"Mu Lao Liu, what the hell are you hiding? Did Prince Mo bring all his brothers up to help Ruan Hui? ”
Ah Shan cautiously poked out half of his head, and he saw the second floor of the wooden building not far ahead, and a familiar big head poked out, it was a small pirate leader on the periphery under Mo Guanfu.
Mu Lao Liu touched his head in embarrassment, but he didn't expect that Ah Shan would recognize him from such a distance.
In fact, Ah Shan's reputation in Hoi An City is very good, he is bold and has a wide range of paths, no matter who has something to ask him, as long as he can do it, he basically does not refuse.
But if there is a friend on the rivers and lakes, who is desperate and wanders to Hoi An City, and finds Xiaoshan Gemen, he will help one or two, at least don't worry about food.
Sighing, Mu Lao Liu was ready to answer a sentence or two, no matter whether this little mountain brother was a person from King Ye or not, he was definitely worthy of Mu Lao Liu.
And Mu Lao Liu didn't think it had anything to do with King Ye, who had recently become famous, what was wrong, if he could have the opportunity to go to King Ye to mix, Mu Lao Liu would definitely be happy.
Chen Tianbao is pretending to be five and six, can't everyone really see who is stronger and who is weak?
glanced at Chen Tianbao with a weak heart, Mu Laoliu was about to speak, and a figure walked over from Chen Tianbao, who was Liang Wencai, one of Mo Guanfu's henchmen.
"Ahsan! Don't pretend to be fucking, Mo Ye already knows who you are, we were recruited by the Emperor Guangzhong, so naturally we have to serve the Emperor Guangzhong, this time not only did we go, but the Central Emperor of Quy Nhon also sent a large army.
King Ye is trapped on the edge of the Ma River, he must be more than lucky, for the sake of you being a talent, Lao Fan, I will give you a way out, you come out by yourself, I will not embarrass you, maybe after Prince Mo comes back, I can spare your life! ”
Central Emperor Nguyen Yue!
Ah Shan was shocked, he finally knew where Ruan Hui dared to fight against the young master by the Ma River.
In the lower reaches of the Ma River, there is a section of the river called the Ejiang River, after arriving at the Ejiang River, the water flow slows down, the water surface is open, and the estuary is a wide delta, and thousands of ships can drive into it.
If Fan Wencai hadn't lied, then Mo Guanfu would have known his identity a long time ago, and he had been constantly sending him out these days, just to prevent him from discovering the secret of the South China pirates secretly transporting ships.
It was also to make him think that the South China pirates were calm, so as to convey the false news to the young master that the South China Sea pirates did not move.
He thought that he was very clever at playing with Mo Guanfu and others in the palm of his hand, but he knew that people had already seen through him, and he had a plan!
Mo Guan Fu and Chen Tien Bao's henchmen can mobilize about 30,000 people at most, and if the Central Emperor Nguyen Yue really fully supports Nguyen Hue, Quy Nhon should also be able to mobilize about 30,000 people.
That's 60,000 people, plus Nguyen Hue's 40,000 people, and that's 100,000.
And Ah Shan knows that the core of the entire revival army is indeed only more than 10,000 people, and Chen Tianbao said that ten dozen of them are not too exaggerated!
And he only recently passed on the news to the young master that there was no change in the pirates of the South China Sea, and the young master definitely didn't know the changes here, and if he was caught off guard, it was really possible to be plotted!
What to do? What to do?
Ah Shan tried his best to suppress the panic in his heart, the Hua Nan pirates were following him, and the young master sent him to Hoi An in the hope of mastering the whereabouts of the Hua Nan pirates.
He knew that the young master's strategy was difficult first and then easy, because after defeating Ruan Hui, Hua Nanhai pirates could be recruited.
There are not many Tang people in the land of the South Seas, and the Fuxing Company also needs a large number of Chinese pirates to balance the tail of the Taixi people, the main force in the navy.
But now, if something really happened to the young master because of his mistake, Ah Shan felt that he would not forgive himself.
After Fan Wencai finished shouting, seeing that Ah Shan did not move, he discussed with Chen Tianbao for a while, and began to beckon the pirates around him to prepare to attack.
Ah Shan anxiously glanced at the street outside, at this moment, people like Mu Lao Liu, who had only received a little favor from him, must not be reliable, these people can be icing on the cake, but it is impossible to send charcoal in the snow.
In the midst of anxiety, a strange head probed out of the corner of the street, which attracted Ah Shan's attention.
This is a little kid with a moon hair, uh, it's definitely not right to say that a child is just because he's just short, almost a little over four feet, barely up to Ah Shan's shoulders.
Hoi An City has an important place in the history of Vietnam, and this place is a very rare international trade city in Vietnam.
The city is divided in two by a bridge, with the Mingxiang people living in the north and the Japanese in the south of the bridge.
Among these large settlements are small settlements of the Dutch, Portuguese, and even Indians.
This will not be far from the liquor store where Ah Shan is hiding, which is the Laiyuan Bridge that connects the Mingxiang people and the Japanese people's settlement.
Most of the Mingxiang people on this side of the bridge are inextricably linked with the South China pirates, and Ah Shan can't rely on them.
On the contrary, it is the Japanese people on the other side of the bridge, because of the language barrier and the competition in maritime trade, the power of the South China pirates has not yet extended to the Japanese settlement, and Ah Shan can still think of some way.
Moreover, although the number of these Japanese people is not too large, only three or four thousand strong, but because of this, they are extremely grouped, have a strong sense of crisis, and have some combat effectiveness.
The leader is a guy named Kazuki Yamada, and it is said that he is a descendant of Yamada Nagamasa, the king of Rokun.
But everyone doesn't believe it, because the real descendants of Yamada Nagamasa are messing with the Spaniards in Manila!
It is said that he was killed by the Spaniards because he intended to collude with Tokugawa Iemitsu to seize Manila, how could he be in Hoi An!
But believe it or not, these Japanese people still have a foothold in Vietnam, thousands of miles away.
It's just that no one knows that these Japanese people can still gain a foothold in Hoi An under the strong threat of South China pirates, and Ah Shan's credit is very great.
Over the past year, the Japanese people have needed various materials, such as linen, gunpowder, buckshot, medicines, and iron to make Japanese knives and armor, all of which Ahsan obtained through the Renaissance Navy.
And the rice, Japanese knives, finished Japanese armor, mounting, and Japanese-style folding fans they produced were also sold by Ahsan through the Longsheng.
It can be said that without Ah Shan, these Japanese people have only two ways to go, either to be a dog for the South China pirates, or to be simply annexed.
When Ahsan looked at the exposed head of the Tsukiyo, Kawakami Sanbei also saw Ahsan.
The eyes of the two collided in the air, and Kawakami Sanbei bowed violently to Ah Shan, his eyes full of fanaticism.
Kawakami Sanbei, this name sounds very powerful, a three-generation soldier surnamed Kawakami, in this era, a Japanese not only has a surname, but also the title of Bingwei, which is amazing.
The name of the guard is that it has served in the palace of the emperor or the general, and it can only be used if you have an official status.
But in fact, Kawakami Sanbei is an authentic family of lost country.
Kawakami is not a serious surname at all, and the guard is also fake, which was obtained from his grandfather who used to be the personal guard of Yamada Nagamasa, the king of Luokun.
Although Yamada Nagamasa was known as a king in the Ayutthaya Dynasty, this king had a lot of water, and the Ayutthaya Dynasty could not be compared to Japan.
So when he met someone from his hometown, Kawakami Sanbei could only introduce his surname and first name cheekily.
Most of the others will report that it is so! Or a strange expression like you're really thick-skinned.
As a result, Ahsan, who had a keen sense of smell, quickly sensed the most fundamental needs of this group of Japanese samurai like Kawakami Sanbei.
He told Yamada Kazuki that if they could help him, when the young master ascended to the throne of King Annam, he would give knighthoods to the widows who had made the greatest meritorious contributions, so that they would be dignified nobles.
Although Annam is located in the South Seas, it is also a large country in the Confucian cultural circle, not a small barbarian state.
Although this title is definitely not as attractive as the domestic title in Japan, it is also a very good choice.
In addition, the purchase and sale of materials are in the hands of Ah Shan, and the Hua Nan pirates on this side of the bridge just think Ah Shan
