Nongji, located in the east of Pattani City, less than 100 kilometers away from Pattani, is most famous for its separatist activities in later generations.

And now it's pretty much the same, fleeing back from around Songkhla in disarray, by Adullah. The more than 8,000 troops led by Sha and Ibrahim have been in Nongji for almost two years.

In these two ways, there are Malay tribes from all over the country who have come to Nong Kei to take refuge, and now Abdullah. The number of available soldiers under Sha's command has increased to thirteen,000, but the weapons and armor are relatively scarce, and these have brought a serious problem.

That's the original Adullah. The reason why Sha was able to rush back with more than 8,000 people under his command in disarray, and not many escaped, was because of Abdullah. Sha falsely claimed that their family members were either killed or enslaved by the Tai and Tang.

These soldiers had no choice but to follow Adullah. Sha rushed back, hoping to save his remaining family, so these people relied on anger and a sense of mourning to keep the stars from dispersing.

However, when they arrived in Nongji, more and more Pattanians fled from the city of Pattani, and it was impossible to completely lock everyone in the city, and they found that the Thai people did not kill in Pattani at all, but only executed some of the nobles of the Sultanate.

In addition, he has been running for hundreds of miles in embarrassment, and the momentum of this mourning soldier has been dissipated at once, so it seems that Adula has more soldiers, but in fact, his combat effectiveness is gradually declining.

And, Adullah. Shah and Ibrahim also had a conflict, and Ibrahim, who was not a local indigenous Ibrahim at all, advocated pulling the army to Pahang or Jeddah, and then relying on the Sultan of Pahang or Jeddah to restore the country.

It's the right choice, but Adullah. Shah didn't want to do this, his family, wealth and everything was in Pattani, and the sultans of Pahang and Jeddah were all Bugis, and they could tolerate Allah like Ibrahim from India, but not necessarily Adullah. Sand is this native native.

If he had gone to Pahang and other places, he would have been robbed of his army, and in the end, he would have been assassinated, just like the Malay Sultan had once voted.

So I thought about trying to see if I could take back Adullah Pattani. Sha resolutely disagrees to go to Pahang or Jeddah, anyway, if he goes to Pahang, he can't save anything, he might as well go directly to the Siamese!

In Adulla. In Sha's heart, the Siamese people, who are pagans, are much more trustworthy than the Bugis, who are also believers in the Fang religion!

But now, Adullah. Shah and Ibrahim no longer had to quarrel, because the army from Pattani had already surrounded Nongji.

Wiche Phraya sent 1,500 sailors to Kuala Terengganu, leaving 1,500 men to guard the Sultan's Palace, while the remaining 1,000 men were all brought to Nongji.

Of course, they are not the main force of the battle that will take place, no matter how crazy Veche Phiya is, he is not crazy enough to use more than 1,000 people to fight more than 10,000 rao, the main force of this army is the 1,000 elites around Ye Kai plus the 4,000 ethnic soldiers mobilized by Ye Fulai from the Chinese from all over the country.

All the men who can go to the battlefield in the entire Pattani Ye family are basically here, because although the Ye family has more than 100,000 people, they are scattered in a large area from Johor to Pattani.

Although a notice had already been issued for everyone in the Ye family to gather in Pattani, almost half of them had not arrived, and these four thousand people were recruited from almost sixty thousand people, far exceeding the standard of one from three dings!

"Boom! Rumble! "There was a huge roar, and it was four three-pounder guns brought by Wiche Phiya to shell Nongji City, and there was a protruding high ground in the northwest corner of Nongji City, which was just right to shell Chengzheng

Without these cannons, Ye Kai would not have chosen to come directly to Nongi City, their numbers are smaller than the Malays, and it is impossible to fight siege warfare, he and Wiche Phiya have the same idea, they both want to use cannons to drive the Malays out of Nongji City!

In Nongi City, screams rang out everywhere, and many of these Malays, who had just arrived in Nongji, were originally just farmers, could not bear the intimidation of this kind of artillery shells, and many people began to run around screaming.

Ibrahim looked at all this in front of him, he knew that he could not stay in the city any longer, this Nongi was originally just a town with a few thousand inhabitants, but now more than 10,000 people suddenly came, plus the original residents, the city suddenly seemed very crowded, and the atmosphere in the city began to seem tense.

Although the Siamese only have four three-pounder cannons, and the lethality given to Nongji City is not great, but the blow to morale is too serious, and if it continues, it is likely to lead to a psychological breakdown of the people.

Ye Kai walked at the front of the team with a big knife, and more than 5,000 people seemed to be quite a lot, standing all over the east of Nongji City.

The neat and horizontal rows in front of them are the main forces that have followed him back and forth in the past few months, whether it is the French led by Henry and Anna who came to reap the benefits, or the people of Huashantang and the Ye family soldiers selected in the early stage, they can all be regarded as veterans who have been on the battlefield.

But behind them, the four thousand people that Ye Fulai pulled out from the Ye family were not enough, most of them had no armor, and their weapons were also varied, some with big knives, some with spears, some with flintlock pistols, some with shotguns, and Ye Kai even saw a few lifting guns.

Their expressions were also relatively nervous, either they were too excited, or they were a little scared, after all, before this, the largest battle they had ever experienced was a brawl with dozens of Malays, at most, no more than two or three hundred rao, and a duel with the ten thousand people in front of them, the gap was still not!

At the same time, their organization is also family-style, and the patriarchs and elders of each house and their clansmen stand together with each other according to their generations and ages, and the team is not neat at all.

In Nongji City, a drum and trumpet sounded, various crescent flags were played, and the sound of a low chanting of the Cobalt Blue Sutra came, and the Malays dressed in typical Malay costumes slowly walked out in a fairly neat line and came to the edge of the city to form a formation.

The three-pounder cannon on the hillside let out a few more roars and then stopped, leaving only the sound of horns and the sound of slight, rapid breathing.

A Siamese soldier with a flag on his back ran over, "Lord Chailuan, Lord Phaya has ordered you to attack the Malay Chinese army, and Lord Phaya will lead the army to attack from both flanks after you launch an attack!" ”

Ye Kai didn't say anything, just nodded, the main attack on the Chinese army, this casualty is definitely not enough, but this is what the Ye family must bear, and there is no lunch for nothing.

If they want to be the vice-governor of Pattani, and if Rama I wants to give most of the land along the Tani River to the Ye family, then they must show the necessary strength to prove themselves and prove that they are worthy of being wooed by Rama I.

Ye Kai was not worried about his thousand people, through the test of the Bugis and the Bagadur guards, Ye Kai found that the combat effectiveness of Malay Rao was really not very good, far lower than the Thais and Burmese, not to mention the Vietnamese.

With the thousand people around him, Ye Kai believed that he was not inferior to the Shangxi Mountain Army, but the four thousand untrained soldiers behind him were a little troublesome!

It may be possible to fight a good fight, and if you fall into a bitter battle, it is likely to collapse, but these people are the foundation of the Ye family in Nanyang, and they must not be defeated by the Malays!

Ye Kai sighed, originally wanted to take advantage of Siam's popularity, but he didn't expect that now it has become a war of alluring the country, whether the Ye family can still gain a foothold in Pattani, it will depend on this hammer deal, if he wins, Rama I will also win them over, everyone has wealth to enjoy, and if he loses, he is afraid that it will not even be easy to steal his life!
