Chapter 521: Kill Him If You Find Out
But this is not something that can be done in a few years, he needs time.
Mu Sheng made a suggestion that was relatively not an objection.
The king of Champa and Annan have always had a good relationship, and it is precisely because of this that the Hu Dynasty dares to deploy less than 80,000 troops there.
Gongsun Jian thought about this question and snapped his fingers very confidently; "Let me tell you a word, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests, in front of interests, in good allies, that will become enemies, but what you said is indeed not wrong, therefore, I decided to go to occupy the city myself."
What the?
As soon as they heard that Gongsun Jian was going to go over in person, Zhang Fu, Mu Sheng and others immediately objected.
He is the commander of the army, and now that the situation has just opened, he will run to stab Hu Guo's ass, who will preside over the hundreds of thousands of troops here.
"I object, you are the commander of the army, if you leave, then here?" Zhang Fu was the first to jump out. Gongsun Jian took a deep breath; "With you here, there's nothing to worry about here. Zhang Fu, you will be the main general, Mu Sheng will be the deputy general, the matter here is up to you to decide, I will leave the Shenji Battalion for you, and I will take the 3,000 battalions. ”
Seeing that Mu Sheng was about to speak, Gongsun Niu raised his hand to stop: "I am the main general, I have the final say." ”
Seeing that no one objected, Gongsun Jian immediately asked Liu Daqing to quickly inform Liu Daqing that the two guards under the command of the Guangdong commander, who were assembling in Qinzhou, Guangxi, should be brought here immediately, and then the three thousand battalions should be taken to Zhancheng.
After receiving Gongsun Jian's order, Liu Daqing immediately led the main force to pick up the two guards of the Guangdong Army on the ship, and rushed over to attack 40,000 people with 3,000 battalions and 10,000 infantry led by Gongsun Jian, and rushed towards the direction of Zhancheng.
The relationship between Champa and the Hu Dynasty is actually not a good relationship, but because the strength of the Champa is relatively weak, and the strength of the Hu Dynasty is strong, so he does not dare to act rashly, and can only surrender to the obscenity of the Hu Dynasty.
After more than half a month of sailing, the Great Zhou Navy Division has arrived in the sea area near the Champa City, and at the same time, the Navy Division of the Champa side has discovered that the other party's ships cannot pose any threat to a behemoth like the Great Zhou.
This time I didn't come to fight, but to borrow the way. Gongsun Jian had done all the etiquette and sent an envoy to tell the king of Champa that he hoped to follow him
Let's talk about it.
The king of Champa who received the news did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
Hu Chao can't be provoked by him, but he can't be provoked by the army of the Great Zhou. Weighing left and right, it is still the highest etiquette. Greet Gongsun Jian and others.
I have to say that the king of Champa will really enjoy it, all of these singers have long legs, and the small waist twisting is dazzling.
"Master, have you let this group of women be hooked, don't forget what we are here for?" Wu Zhanji saw Gongsun Jian's eyes narrow, and reminded him softly.
Gongsun Jian naturally understood what he was doing here, but since the king of Zhancheng was kind, he had to give him this face, and he was talking after appreciating this song and dance.
Finally waited until the end of the song and dance, Gongsun Jian saw that it was time to eat, so he got up with a smile; "I've always been thinking about the city in my heart, what is the purpose of my Ming army coming here?"
Straight to the point, without beating around the bush, you may be able to achieve the best results.
Sure enough, the king of Champa nodded and arched his hand; "Envoy, I occupy a small number of people in the city, and I have always been loyal to the Celestial Empire, this time the matter of the Hu Dynasty has nothing to do with us, and I also ask the Envoy to find out."
At this point, Gongsun Jian naturally understood, and he waved his hand slightly; "Don't worry, this time, we are not here to crusade against you Zhancheng, but to use the road.
By borrowing the Tao, anyone can understand the meaning of this, and the Ming army will enter the Hu Dynasty from its own territory.
After listening carefully, the king of Champa almost did not kneel on the ground.
It's not that he doesn't borrow, but he doesn't dare, once the Ming army withdraws in the future, the Hu Dynasty will definitely raise troops to deal with him, he only has a few troops, and the total number of soldiers and horses is only about 80,000, but the other party does have hundreds of thousands. It's not on a level at all, it's time to help yourself.
"The Envoy...... This...... This ......"
"I know what you're worried about, you're worried about their retaliation, but you can rest assured that I didn't want them to survive when I sent troops this time."
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty present were frightened. This is said very lightly, it seems to be a very common thing, but in the eyes of these people, this is not an easy task, anyway, the Hu Dynasty also has more than 200,000 troops, and the Great Zhou Dynasty will be destroyed when it is said to be destroyed, which is also too ...... It's awesome.
That's right, it's awesome.
King Zhancheng swallowed a mouthful of spit, as a superior, he understood better, don't look at the power of the Hu Dynasty in this area, but compared with the Great Zhou, it is not worthy of the strength of a political envoy. The Great Zhou Dynasty was able to gather more than a million troops at every turn, but the Hu Dynasty was only 300,000 at the top of the sky.
"Envoy, the stakes are very high, look at this matter, can we be allowed to discuss and discuss."
Deliberation was inevitable, but Gongsun Jian didn't want an unfriendly answer.
There are some things, he still has to remind him, don't let the king of Champa miscalculate and go the wrong way, which is not a good thing for anyone.
Gongsun Jian smiled and set the wine glass aside; "It's natural, it's not a trivial matter after all, and it should be discussed. I Da Zhou understands, if Zhancheng can borrow the way, or send troops to assist, to crusade against the Hu Dynasty together, then this southern Sanfu boundary, I think you can still have a chance to occupy the city
Target. ”
If you can flicker, you can flicker, but there are still 60,000 or 70,000 troops here in the king of Zhancheng, even if he kicks out the troops in charge of public security in various places, then at least there are 30,000 or 40,000 to follow him on the expedition.
With more than 40,000 troops brought by himself, plus the troops of the king of Zhancheng, he can also form a large army of 70,000 or 80,000 people.
The surnamed Hu has already mobilized all the main forces in the south to deal with Zhang Fu and Mu Sheng, and the old, weak, sick and disabled here are not vegetables at all.
Of course, it depends on how the king of Champa makes this move.
The king of Zhancheng attaches great importance to the exchange of interests, and the territory of several counties in the three prefectures is only a drop in the bucket for Da Zhou, but for the small place of Zhancheng, it is a big piece of fat.
However, the general of the guard of the king of Champa did not seem to be optimistic, and muttered, looking at the meaning, this may be a conspiracy, if the army is sent, I am afraid that it will be burned at that time.
"Who, you're a little louder, don't mumble, it's not better on the surface." I probably listened to it, which is what it meant, but Gongsun Qian still planned to figure it out, and then prescribe the right medicine.
The general of the guard is also a man who stands up; "Your honor, as the saying goes, if our army assists you, you let us go and attack us, this is not a plot with a tiger."
This concern is completely unnecessary.
Liu Daqing, who was on the side, immediately squinted his eyes; "What do you think of my big week?"
The guard general's face did not change, Gongsun Jian raised his hand slightly to stop Liu Daqing, and naturally took a sip of wine; "If you want to destroy the city, it's just a matter of minutes, and what are you talking about with the tiger."
The room was full of surprise, but no one dared to make any rebuttals.
Yes, the Ming army had a smooth journey, and annihilated more than 100,000 Hu troops in a battle outside the city of Duobang, and they occupied the city, which was not enough for the other party to plug their teeth. Da Zhou is really going to destroy himself, it's not the same as playing.
"Where to go, you Zhancheng King decides for himself, borrow or not, you decide for yourself, I just need a result. Borrowing the way can only be my Great Zhou to thank you, there will be no benefit, send troops together, the land of the three mansions will be given to you, if you don't give both, I think I won't say the consequences, you should know. ”
Knowing, naturally knowing, isn't it destroying the country?
The king of Champa has bitterness and can't say it.
Anyway, his arms can't reach his thighs, no matter whether the Ming army wants to clean himself up at that time, it will be a matter of the future, and now, it is most important to make a certain choice in a proper manner.
"Envoy, this king......"
Gongsun Jian didn't want to argue over this issue. He got up and thought for a moment; "It's better to choose a day than to hit a day. In this way, you can give me an answer before dusk today, after sunset, if I don't get any answer, I, the Great Zhou Water Master, will patronize your palace and take a good look at this exotic scenery. I don't think you mind. ”
Damn, the soldiers are so elegant, how do you let yourself live.
Watching Gongsun Jian lead people away, the king of Zhancheng felt chills all over his body.
With an unbearable face, even with some fear, he looked at the Manchu Dynasty civil and military; "Ladies and gentlemen, Da Zhou has given us an ultimatum, we
Whether to send troops together, or whatever, let's come up with a solution. ”
The sun is already setting in the west. There is probably less than half an hour left before sunset.
Liu Daqing and the others had already come to the deck to wait for Gongsun Jian's order, as long as the attack order was issued, the artillery above the sailors would launch an artillery bombardment on the Zhancheng dock, and then cover the landing of the army.
With less than 20,000 garrisons currently occupying the city, that is, an hour or two, it can be taken.
"Dashuai, it seems that they won't cooperate with us anymore, let's attack." Liu Daqing pointed to the direction of Zhancheng in the distance and asked.
Gongsun glanced over there and shook his head slightly; "Whatever you attack, they will agree, just be patient."
will agree, several generals clearly do not believe it. Gongsun Jian handed the teacup to the attendant on the side, got up and came to the side of the ship, looking at the city in the distance; "Their strength is too poor, this point, the king of Champa knows very well in his heart, to start a war with us is just to bring about his own destruction, therefore, he can only have one choice, that is, to cooperate with us and attack Annam together."
It was true that there was no choice, and while several people were waiting uncertainly, the escort general, who had raised an objection at noon, had already come to the ship to express that Champa was willing to cooperate with the Ming army in the crusade against Annam.
Gongsun Niu was very satisfied with this news, and repeatedly said that he would definitely divide the land of Sanfu to them, and early the next morning, more than 90,000 troops divided into two routes and began to attack from the south to the north, attacking the counties in the south of Annam.
The main force had already let the Ming army drag it in the north, and the attack in the south was even more overwhelming. However, Gongsun Jian obviously did not have the opportunity to personally command this battle to bring Annan back to the Great Zhou.
He received Wu Di's holy decree and let himself hurry back to the sky.
He really didn't know what was going on over there.
Gongsun Jian did not dare to delay anything, and after temporarily entrusting the command power to the commander of the Guangdong capital, he immediately transferred Mu Sheng from the north to coordinate and command the southern forces, and then led Wu Zhanji to be escorted by two ships from the naval division and returned to Yingtian by water.
This way, it took nearly two months, and I landed at Yingtian Pier just now, and I haven't stepped on the pedal yet. The decree has been delivered, let yourself go to the palace immediately.
"Your grandfather is really not a thing, I went out to fight him for half a year, and he even stripped me of the right to go home. It's just a week of peeling. He took the decree and looked at the words on it briefly.
