Chapter 146: Your Majesty, Something Wrong!

The fleet moved all the way, probably because the main force of the Mozambican naval division had gone south to fight against the Li Dynasty, and the Gao Jue fleet did not encounter sniper from the Mozambican naval division along the way.

However, this does not mean that the Mo Dynasty has not reacted so far, in fact, when the fleet arrived in Hung Yen, a local official sent a representative to come by small boat to inquire about the intention of the "Celestial Empire Sailors" to come here.

Originally, Gao Jue thought that when he reached such a situation, the next thing to do was to start talking, who knew that Boss Hu's eyes rolled and he had an idea, Gao Jue listened to it and agreed with a little hesitation.

Then Boss Hu appeared in front of the Xing'an officials in a big way, and in the name of Guangxi Governor Yu Shigao's pragmatism, he severely condemned Mo Maoqia, the commander of the capital of Annan, for suppressing the bandits, which led to the invasion of Annan pirates into Qinzhou. and said that Gao Zhitai sent his own fleet to come this time, firstly, to show the majesty of the Celestial Empire, and urge Modutong to exterminate the Guang'an pirates as soon as possible; Second, I also heard that the Li Dynasty bought two Franc machine warships, and was worried that Mo Dutong would not be able to resist it, so he came to suppress him.

The officials of the Mo Dynasty in Xing'an were stunned when they heard this, and all the things they said were well-founded, of course there were pirates in Guang'an, and of course the Li Dynasty also bought the warship of the Franc machine, but ...... The pirates of Guang'an went to attack Qinzhou? But the Celestial Empire fleet came to press us down?

Why doesn't it sound so reliable?

The envoy asked Boss Hu: "Thank you for your kindness, but I wonder if the envoy has an official document from Gao Xun?" Boss Hu claims to be a highly pragmatic envoy, of course, he can't be an "angel of the kingdom", he can only be called a respected envoy.

Boss Hu listened, but his face was cold, and he said: "There is nature, but it is for Mo Dutong to see, it is related to the military aircraft, what kind of identity are you, and you want to take a look?" ”

The Mo Dynasty because of the founding king Mo Dengyong did not fight and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was a little hard, and even with these local officials could only be submissive, the envoy saw that the "Guangxi envoy" was arrogant, and he did not dare to insist, so he could only think of delaying time, saying that he hoped that the envoys of the Celestial Empire would rest in Xing'an for a while, and wait for them to inform Shenglong to make some preparations to welcome them.

I want to insert a sentence here, the envoy of the Annan Metropolitan Commander is only a second-rank in the Ming Dynasty, according to the tradition of the Ming Dynasty, it is equivalent to a big Tusi, and because Guangxi is the closest to Annan, he is theoretically under the jurisdiction of Guangxi Shouchen - Guangxi Shouchen is a broad concept, but no matter how broad, Guangxi Fu and the two courts must be his superiors from a legal point of view.

In other words, the Guangxi Inspectorate does have the power to supervise Mo Maoqia - although this kind of thing has not happened, but at least de jure this is the case.

Boss Hu decisively rejected the envoy's "kindness", saying that although the fleet brought an official document from Gao Zhitai, the fleet itself was not a naval division of the Celestial Empire, and every penny of money out was his own money - didn't you see that there were many private ships there?

Therefore, we don't have time to delay here, so we have to hurry to Thang Long, and while conveying the order of the platform, we still have to do business by the way.

The envoy was relieved at this time, as long as it was not a Ming sailor, it was impossible for the fleet of these merchants to come to fight Annan, even if the high press platform was powerful, it would be impossible to provoke the border without permission.

So, the envoy went to reply to his master with peace of mind, while the Jinghua fleet swaggered and continued to swim upstream, heading straight for Shenglong.

However, the officials of Hung Yen did not arrive home in a daze, although they also felt that although this incident was unexpected, it was not a big problem, but they still sent people to inform the Thang Long side quickly.

Of course, this official also has a small calculation: the people from the Celestial Empire claim to be ordered by the Guangxi Governor to follow the imperial history, and of course he can't be stopped casually as a magistrate, and even if he wants to, he can't stop it, can he let people shoot arrows at a big ship in the river?

But it is not safe to know and not report it, in case this fleet sails all the way to Thang Long, and Thang Long has not even received a single message, no matter whether there will be a misunderstanding or even conflict between the two sides, it is possible that Thang Long will punish him for a crime of slackness in the future, wouldn't it be wrong?

Therefore, while letting the fleet pass, sending someone to inform Thang Long is the best way to deal with it, no matter what, he is not guilty.

Although the lower reaches of the Red River are currently sailing downwind due to the sea breeze, after all, it is against the current, and the messengers sent by Xing'an do arrive in Thang Long faster than Jinghua's fleet.

Mo Maoqia, the "Commander of Annam", was shocked when he heard the news, and knew that something was wrong when he heard it.

He is not one of those local officials, he is not vigilant at all, and his brain is extremely dull. This fleet has more than 60 large sea ships alone, and more than 100 small and medium-sized sea ships, which is stronger than his family's sailors, but he said that he was just here to deliver a letter, and no one dared to believe it!

However, bad is bad, but it is difficult to say how bad. After all, the other side also said that he was here to order him to exterminate the pirates, according to the habit of the Ming Dynasty, to order something, if he doesn't have the confidence, his side can also be dragged and dragged out, so this fleet may be here to play a deterrent effect on itself.

If this is the case, then the situation is fine, but it just shows that Gao Xunji is very angry about the "Qinzhou was attacked by pirates", but he has no other meaning, so he, the Emperor of Dayue, can still continue to do it.

However, this year is not destined to be a good year, and the death of King Qian last year was only a mixed blessing for Mo Maoqia, after all, the two mountains on his head were missing, but then it was Mo Maoqia's turn to be unlucky - he was blind!

Although the imperial doctor told him that His Majesty only had glaucoma, and it could be cured with good treatment, he was still very annoyed, because he originally planned to take back the military power vacated after King Qian's death. [No wind note: Mo Maoqia's blindness due to glaucoma is a historical fact, and he recovered his sight after a few years in history. 】

Mo Maoqia had bright yellow bandages on his eyes, and he had just issued an order to send the relevant ministers to discuss how to deal with the fleet sent by the Guangxi Patrol Imperial History. Who knew that as soon as the chamberlain went out, a group of ministers from outside hurriedly came to meet him.

Mo Maoqia sat up straight and passed them in, and he heard a minister say loudly: "Your Majesty, something is wrong!" ”

"I just have some eye disease, my ears are not deaf, so I don't need to be so loud!" Mo Maoqia, who was ill, was obviously not in a very good mood.

However, the news that made him feel even more bad was about to reach his ears, and the minister still did not stop talking, and still said loudly: "Your Majesty, it is really a big event, the army of King Ying's southern expedition was defeated, and more than half of the 60,000 army was lost, and it has returned to Henan." ”

Well, this Henan is the Henan of Annam, about fifty miles north of Ninh Binh, where Modunrang was defeated, and at the same time this place is less than fifty miles from Hung Yen, where Gao Heng's fleet has just passed, in the southwest direction of Hung Yen.

"How could there be such a big defeat?" Mo Maoqia was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Has the army ever been reorganized?" What happened to King Ying? ”

What's going on? When King Qian was in the past, although he couldn't take down the Southern Dynasty, he was also suppressing the Southern Dynasty to fight, why was it only a few months, the army was defeated by the Southern Dynasty, and more than half of the 60,000 troops were lost!

It's hurtful!

The minister who spoke hurriedly said: "The army has now been regrouped in Henan, and King Ying has been somewhat frightened, but he can still hold on, and he has sent someone to have General Nguyen Ti set off to the south at once to make peace with him, in order to deal with the counterattack that Li Tre may launch soon." ”

Mo Maoqia really wanted to scold himself that the seventh grandfather was a waste, but he also knew that although the seventh grandfather was in power, he could still sit firmly in his position, and he still couldn't do without his support.

Mo Maoqia calmed down and asked, "What did Ruan Ti say?" ”
