Long Chuan, also known as Kim Ou Province in present-day Vietnam, is located in the bottom corner of the long map of present-day Vietnam, and is the southernmost territory of Vietnam, bordering Kien Giang Province, where the town of Ha Tien is located

And now the province of Boliao, which includes the neighboring province of Longchuan, is under the control of He Xiwen.

This Tiandihui pirate from the White Lotus Sect actually has a good talent for tuntian, and the provinces of Vietnam sound like they are big, but in fact, many provinces are not as big as the counties in the country.

In such a small place, after nearly five years of development by He Xiwen, he actually has more than 200,000 household registrations, which can be regarded as the only foothold that Ruan Fuying can have at present.

Now Ye Kai and Ruan Fuying are in the same place, Ruan Fuying has an army of 10,600 people, of which in addition to the 8,600 people who have just been pulled out of Sattayi, there are 2,000 Ruan Fuying sent to Pattani under the pretext of supporting Ye Kai, and now they have also been brought back by Ye Kai.

And Ye Kai himself has almost 3,000 people, and He Xiwen can pull out about 6,000 people by smashing pots and selling iron.

There were eight Taixi battleships, 25 large and small fortune ships, and more than 60 offshore galleys, and the food, grain and grass could last for about three months.

The ordnance is very sufficient, after all, Ruan Phuc Anh can run away without anything, ordnance, gunpowder, and lead bullet must not be missing.

At present, in terms of numbers, Ye Kai's people are the least, but they are the most elite, his three battalions have all been baptized by the battle of Ganmaxi, of which half of them are Huayang, and the Chinese are all his clansmen, waiting to fight a big Ye family country with Chief Ye.

The foreigners are mainly French, all of whom are active or retired soldiers recruited by Ye Kai in Europe, not the drunkards, gamblers and other scum commonly used to make up the numbers here in Nanyang!

Most of them have family members who need Ye Kai to supply medicine, or want to follow Ye Kai to fight for a few years, so that they can return to France to live a good life with Ye Kai's reputation in France.

Moreover, Ye Kai also has a large and small field artillery of more than 20 large and small Ganmaxi captured some elite Austrian artillery, so although Ye Kai has the smallest number of people, his combat effectiveness and will to fight are the best.

Nguyen Phuc Anh's more than 10,000 people are okay, of which 2,000 have fought the battle of Ganmaxi with Ye Kai, and the remaining 8,000 people have also been fighting non-stop, fighting the Burmese, fighting Malay pirates, and even helping Rama I punish the rebellious Chenla people.

But there are not many of them who have flintlock pistols, it's not that Ruan Phuc Anh can't buy them or no one trains them, it's that he can't afford them!

For Ruan Fuying, who has no land now, it is impossible for him to let his subordinates use flintlock pistols openly like Ye Kai did.

In fact, Ye Kai is almost unable to use it, and if he doesn't hurry up to build his own military industry in North Vietnam, he will soon have to let the soldiers change to playing cold weapons.

Therefore, there is a very strange rule in Nguyen Phuc Anh Army now, in a squad of fifty people, only five flintlock pistols are allowed, and each flintlock pistol is only rationed with ten lead bullets and corresponding gunpowder.

And in each battle, if a soldier uses more than five buckshots, the excess will have to be purchased at his own expense!

Hahahaha! Awesome! You help Ruan Xiaoqiang fight, in order to win, you use too many guns and bullets, you have to spend your own money to buy them, if you are a sharpshooter with accurate marksmanship, you will wait for bankruptcy after the battle!

And the weakest is of course He Xiwen, although he is good in Tuntian Tun and can pull out a team of more than 6,000 people, but the sources of his subordinates are too mixed.

There are the White Lotus cultists who followed him in northern Sichuan and failed, the Tiandihui Party who followed him south from Shaoshan and other places in northern Guangdong, the Tanjia fishermen and pirates, the Guangnan farmers who were recruited in Guangnan, and even many Shuizhenla people.

This is simply the same as He Xiwen's identity himself, a hodgepodge of everything that can be touched and has everything.

And their weapons are not very good, basically no armor, not to mention flintlock pistols and arquebuses, cold weapons are also varied, swords, guns, halberds, hammers, everything.

Such an army can basically only fight with the wind, and if the wind is against the wind, simply don't go to it.

。。。。

Longchuan, Gemao City, Ruan Fuying sat in the tent of the military camp in the city, he just sent someone to invite Ye Kai and He Xiwen, where to go next, Ruan Fuying now has to listen to their opinions.

This time is different from the previous times, the first few times he returned to the country by himself, this time it is a bit like a partnership, because his brother-in-law Ye Kai is no longer like his subordinate, more like a partner.

Nguyen Phuc Anh sighed, although he was only twenty-five years old now, he had been thinking about recovering Quang Nam for ten years.

Ten years ago, all of his family except his mother, four younger sisters and one younger brother died at the hands of the Tay Son Dynasty, and in order to avenge and restore Quang Nam, the founding monarch of the last feudal dynasty in Vietnamese history, for ten years, he basically spent the tragic experience of winning first and then losing.

But this time, Ruan Fuying felt in his heart that it was likely to be the last time he returned to the country, if he couldn't succeed, I'm afraid he would never have a chance again, because if he couldn't succeed this time, the people's hearts should be scattered, the so-called thing is only three, and he is already the fourth time.

And this time, there are even worse things that make him worse, Ye Kai, who was originally his courtier, his brother-in-law, suddenly rose to prominence, and now he has suddenly become a prince, and even his strength is not much smaller than him.

and He Xiwen, who he recruited, they are all Tang people, and they must also be on Ye Kai's side, if Guangnan is restored, how should he settle his brother-in-law? You can't tear the earth and seal the king!

Now Nguyen Phuc Anh never thought of reunifying Vietnam at all, because now that he has tens of millions of people, he should be snickering if he can restore Quang Nam.

If it weren't for the fact that he had received the exact news, Nguyen Yue and Nguyen Hue had a military conflict, and Nguyen Hue was so ill that he could barely afford it, he would not have dared to return to Quang Nam at all.

"Your Highness is overjoyed! Great joy! Just as Ruan Phuc Anh was frowning, Le Van Yue and Nguyen Van Thanh strode in, both with surprises on their faces.

"He Xizhi, come quickly!" Ruan Fuying was also in good spirits, it was difficult to beat Xishan Ruan Hui, the thief had already died violently?

"Xishan Army Zhangqi Ruan Wenzhang led fifteen warships, three hundred soldiers from Jiading to vote, and also brought the Xishan thief pseudo Dongding King Ruan Lu My relationship chart year is wrong, the previous article said that Ruan Lu died, in fact, no, here to correct the following. The news of the former god Cewei Caiqi Nguyen Van Nhence also led an army of 1,500 to vote! ”

Nguyen Van Nhanh, the son of the former Quang Nam Minh Duc Hou Nguyen Quang, had been lurking near Dong Giang Province, and as soon as he heard that Nguyen Phuc Anh had returned to China, he immediately brought 1,500 militia to join him.

And Ruan Wen Zhang Laitou, is even more legendary, this guy was originally the general of Ruan Lu, the king of the Xishan Dynasty, after the battle of Leach, he was ordered to pursue Ruan Phuc Ying, and he was about to catch up, when Ruan Phuc Ying was about to be cornered and captured.

As a result, at this time, the mountain wind was blowing, the sand was flying, the soldiers couldn't open their eyes, even many trees on the mountain were blown over, and Ruan Van Zhang's own general flag was also blown away without a trace.

So Ruan Van Zhang, who was about to catch Ruan Phuc Ying, hurriedly retreated, and the more he thought about it, the more amazing it became, plus Ruan Phuc Ying has always had a good reputation in the land of Quang Nam, Ruan Van Truong actually made up Ruan Phuc Ying and even the real dragon son of heaven by himself, and there was a picture of God blessing him and not being an enemy.

As a result, this time when he heard that Nguyen Phuc Anh had returned to Quang Nam, he actually gave up his official position in the Xishan Dynasty and led his troops to take refuge.

Ruan Phuc Ying was overjoyed, although it was not Ruan Hui who died violently, but this time he arrived in Longchuan, he had two future votes, which shows that he Ruan Phuc Ying is still popular, and there are still many people in Quang Nam who regard him as the lord of Quang Nam.

Even the generals of the West Mountain Thieves abandoned their officials to vote, which proves that he is the master!

Before he had time to go out of the tent to greet him, Huang Fengde walked in happily again, Ruan Qin and Li Shang from nearby Anxing Province, and Huang Jinjing from Carrying Kan Island came together with 3,000 soldiers, 20 warships, and 5 million meters.

However, in just one day, Ruan Fuying got 4,800 soldiers, five local gentry, 35 warships, and 5 million catties of rice, and his strength instantly soared, and the number of soldiers exceeded 15,000!
