Thank you for your support, and I send you today's chapter.

"These two bastards!"

Bursts of angry roars came from the signing room, accompanied by the roar, and from time to time there was the sound of books, account books and other things colliding on the wall, and the sound of teacups and other porcelain thrown to the ground and shattered, so that the guards and maids on duty outside the door all knew that this lily porcelain was really as thin as paper and as sound as chime.

This voice was so shocking that they all looked at their noses and noses, and held their breath, lest one accidentally provoke the master inside and make trouble for themselves, although this possibility is not very likely, but, be careful to make the ship of ten thousand years.

The maid with the organic spirit quietly ran to deliver a message to the housekeeper's wife, "My lord doesn't know why he is angry in the study, I don't know who provoked him!" You'd better go and take a look, don't be angry with the adult's body. ”

Soon, Yan Mei'er, who had a somewhat bulging abdomen, and Li Xiuxiu, who was talking in her room, came to the outside of the signing room or the courtyard of Shouhan's study surrounded by a group of maids.

Hearing the news, there were also Fu Bo and the chief historian Li Peilin.

The four of them discussed a little outside the door, with Fu Bo as the leader, Yan Mei'er second, and the four of the Li family brothers and sisters entering the palace.

The entire signing room seems to have just been looted by a hurricane, and all kinds of drawings, account books, and documents have been thrown everywhere, making people have no place to stay.

"Shouhan, why is that?"

"My lord, why is this so?"

"Xianggong, who made you angry?"

"Big brother, what's wrong with you?"

Li Peilin guessed a few clues, he bent down and picked up an account book that fell on the threshold, and the red sign on the cover made of blue cloth was written on the details of the expenses of the Tunpu in the five years of the Apocalypse. Such account books are everywhere in Shouhan's study, and it seems that there is no bookish atmosphere in the room, but the smell of money and food is full.

Stepping on the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, Li Peilin put the account book in the place where it should have been, a large cabinet against the wall, and closed the glass cabinet door with his hand. "My lord, the peace envoy of the King of Ayutthaya, I have settled in the pavilion. This is his national letter. ”

After venting the anger in his heart, Shouhan also calmed down a lot, and when he saw the pregnant Yan Mei'er with a concerned and nervous look, all the unhappiness in his heart was thrown to Java! Oh no, Java isn't too far from here, so it should have been lost to the Franco.

Seeing this, Mrs. Cai hurriedly nodded and beckoned a few illiterate mothers-in-law to come in and clean up the broken porcelain pieces all over the floor. "Put away all the paper with words."

The Han Shou ordered the people to go up the table and chairs under the porch, support Yan Mei'er, and in Xiuxiu's envious eyes, help the future mother to sit down, and let the early spring sunshine shine on her mother's body.

Under the sun, Yan Mei'er's face was filled with maternal light and abundant happiness. How many husbands in this world can be like this?

The five of them sat together at Shouhan's signal, and Xiuxiu sat together with Yan Mei'er, blinking at her future husband and brother, and nominal father with big beautiful eyes.

"Xianggong, what happened? It's not good to let you lose your temper so much, and it hurts your body. But which general on the front line lost the battle? ”

Shouhan smiled bitterly, "If I lose the battle, I won't be so angry." Brother Pei Lin is also here, you ask him, can there be a defeat on the front line now? ”

"A few days ago, I received a front-line military report, our army's water and land divisions marched hand in hand, the land Phoenix Battalion Wang Bao Division, with the surrender of troops as the forerunner, the new attached tribal soldiers postponed, the Phoenix Battalion Headquarters supervised, since the 20th of the first month broke the Siamese army, seven cities were broken in a month, and now Ubun Ratchasim, Chathani, Sisaket, Lai Et, etc., which border Chenla, are all owned by the general. At present, the army has arrived at the city of Nakhon Ratchasima, and it will be captured in a few days, opening the gateway to the city. ”

"Wang Bao has won the battle again?!"

"Zhang Xiaohu of the Navy Division led seven gunboats to break the Siamese Navy Division on the sea of the Gulf of Siam, sank 31 enemy ships, captured 57 enemy ships, and more than 2,000 generals, officers, sailors and gunners at all levels, and now conquered Ratchaburi and Pattaya, which are adjacent to the Gulf of Siam, and sent gunboats to cruise at the mouth of the Chao Phraya River to block the passage for the smuggling of the cunning villains."

Yan Mei'er couldn't figure out the names of many places mentioned in the military newspaper for a while, but I thought that the territory must be very large, or the location was extremely important. Otherwise, these two lawless guys would not have been specifically noted in the battle report. But why Zhang Xiaohu sent gunboats to cruise the mouth of the Chao Phraya River is a bit puzzling.

"Brother, why did Zhang Xiaohu's guy occupy these two places?"

As she spoke, someone brought a map, and Xiuxiu hurriedly found the two place names of Pattaya and Ratchaburi on the map, and pointed to these two places with a finger like a spring onion.

The two places are one east and one west, across the Gulf of Siam, not far from the north is the mouth of the Chao Phraya River, these years by the side of Shouhan, Yan Mei'er is also somewhat contaminated, "Xianggong, this Zhang Xiaohu occupies these two places, isn't this just to enter the house, and you can go to the city along the Chao Phraya River at any time to join Wang Bao?" ”

"Yes, that's what worries me."

"In the military reports sent by the two generals, Wang and Zhang, they are asking for instructions on when to launch an attack on Dacheng?" Add another royal seal to the lord! ’”

A few people couldn't help but burst into laughter when they heard Pei Lin say this, but Fu Bo twisted his beard and smiled slightly, Yan Mei'er was slightly proud, and only Xiuxiu was sprinkled with silver bells in all directions. Only Shouhan himself smiled bitterly.

Ye Qi conquered Hue and seized dozens of large and small seals of the Ruan family and submitted them, including the seal of the county king of the Ruan family, although it was only canonized by the Li court, but the size was also the seal of the prince. This made all the generals competitive.

Soon, during the battle to conquer the city, Zhang Xiaohu's subordinates, who were the first to break into the city walls, rushed straight to the palace, and faced the king of Champa who surrendered to Meatan, the first thing he said was, "Hand over your royal seal!" ”

Probably compared with these two, Wang Bao's record seems to lack such a seal. Therefore, Wang Bao bluntly proposed in the military newspaper to add another king seal to the lord for the young lord to play in the future!

Li Peilin hurriedly created a topic for Shouhan to divert this somewhat embarrassing situation.

"My lord, the envoy sent by the King of Siam, Basong Charunpong, has been placed in the pavilion by An Tianhong, the law enforcement office of Bao Zhongchen, and the statistics office of Niu Qiandao have also sent people to their side. Subordinates and others asked for a lord's guidance, for Siam, is it war or peace? ”

"Hey, hey! Come and sum? What kind of summing gift did you bring with you? Shouhan saw that Yan Mei'er got up and left her seat to change her clothes, and Xiuxiu and a group of maids and women also accompanied him, so he showed a thief's expression. (Did you send a beautiful woman over?) Did you send a shemale over to perform a show? ）

"Oh! The messenger brought some silver and gold, and a white elephant, which was said to dance to the music, and carried a good luck. ”

"What about other than that?" Shouhan was a little discouraged.

"It seems that there are still some special products such as ivory, rhino horn, leopard skin, etc., and the messenger said that as long as the lord gives peace, they are willing to pay tribute every year, and come to court every year."

"That's all?" Shouhan was completely disappointed, "Damn, if it weren't for the lack of preparation, I was worried that if I stepped too fast, I would have turned your Ayutthaya royal family into a ladyboy performance troupe!" ”

"There are white elephants? Can also dance? When Xiuxiu, who was bouncing around, heard this, she became even more excited, "Big brother, will you take me to see the white elephant?" ”

"Xiuxiu!" Seeing the younger sister so coquettish in front of Shouhan, Pei Lin, as a brother, naturally wanted to scold a few words.

"Xianggong, why are you so angry?" After taking a seat, Yan Mei'er took a sip of tea and asked her husband about the cause of his temper.

"There are about 10,000 regular troops under Wang Bao's department, and there are 350,000 soldiers from various tribes who are newly accommodated in the border areas of Chenla and Siam, and the first battle of Surin Mansion has reduced about 30,000 troops, adding up to 100,000 people.

"However, it is easy to take a city, but it is even more difficult to defend it." In the end, Fu Bo not only understands Shouhan, but his qualifications also allow him to speak more casually in front of Shouhan.

I see!

Wake up the dreamer in a word! This time, even Yan Mei'er understood, as long as Xiuxiu was still blinking her innocent big eyes, looking at the people in front of her, she didn't know what dumb riddle they were playing.

Li Peilin's heart is bright, his lord, is bent on building a regime similar to Qin, from the center to the state capital, to the towns and villages, to be able to use it freely. The kind of world governed by scholars and gentry is not what he wants.

In order to achieve this goal, the government hall has been open for several years and has trained thousands of people, who have been assigned to various villages and forts, or village heads, A chiefs, or teachings, or inspections, strictly implementing the laws and orders promulgated by the Shouhan, promoting various new technologies, organizing personnel to reclaim wasteland, planting all kinds of crops, digging ditches, and laying roads.

"My lord, but because the political hall can't get so many grassroots officials?" Peilin's sentence further clarified the problem.

"Brother Zong, that's good. You read poetry and books, and you know the stories of the past dynasties. At that time, Temujin and his descendants raised troops to conquer the Quartet, but in a few decades, they destroyed Jin, Khorezm, Western Xia, Great Food, Great Qin, and Song Dynasty. The area is wide and the soldiers are unprecedented. However, you see, where is there still Mengyuan in the world now? ”

"Needless to say, my Emperor Taizu Gao raised an army to fight against Hulu. But the many khanates of the Mengyuan Dynasty do not exist in the world, what is the reason? ”

"When my Emperor Taizong was alive, there was a Yuan horse Timur, who was dominant in the river, and the soldiers were strong and strong. The countries of Taixi have come to the big tent to surrender, calling the country of the son and the grandson, like a carp crossing the river. Let me ask, where is the Timurid Empire today? ”

The Mongol Empire, the Timurid Empire, was not long after the death of the founder, the various departments began to fall apart, and even attacked each other, competing for the position of the Great Khan.

"After the death of Timur, the youngest son and the eldest grandson, led troops to attack each other, and the country became weak from strong to weak, until it finally perished."

"Brother Zong, you are really knowledgeable, but you don't know that the descendants of Timur are the founders of the Mughal Empire in Tianzhu, across the sea. The descendants are extended, and sure enough, the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff! ”

"Big brother, tell me quickly, why are they finished so quickly?"

Xiuxiu was a little bored when she heard it, took a bite of snacks, and began to urge Shouhan to tell the answer to the mystery, but Li Peilin on the side seemed to have a little experience.

"My lord, but because the Mongol Temujin and Timur generations all won with soldiers and horses, and after occupying a place, they were still governed by local nobles and chiefs, just like the Tusi of my Ming Dynasty, once the soldiers and horses are no longer strong, these worlds that have been won immediately will disappear in an instant?"

"Yes, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, said that he could win the world immediately, but he must not govern the world immediately. This is to put it in a sentence that I often say, that is, to establish a solid grassroots political power, and this land will finally belong to you! ”

"Well, it's like reclamation, of course, you can raze thorns to the ground with a long knife, an axe, or even a fire, but if you want to turn it into fertile land, you have to bend down and cultivate it diligently." Fauber also understood.

Therefore, Wang Bao and Zhang Xiaohu's achievements completely disrupted the strategic deployment of Shouhan, he originally planned to go north and then south, and after solving the Lao Kingdom and the Zheng family, the political hall cultivated the number of village chiefs available for use, and then went south. But now, these two people have hit the capital of others.

Let's see how it ends!

Yan Mei'er got up and left very interestingly, but Xiuxiu, still interested in holding her cheeks and wanting to continue listening, to see how these men in front of her dealt with this thorny problem.

"Xiuxiu, you go and accompany your sister Mei'er, she is inconvenient." Li Peilin opened his mouth and sent the girl away. Just kidding, he must not leave the impression of a relative and the inner palace uniting to Shouhan and Fubo.

"The area occupied by Wang Bao is about tens of thousands of miles, of which the mountainous areas account for the majority, not to mention the high mountains and dense forests, and there are many local people, if you insist on eating, I am afraid that you will have to prepare no less than 10,000 students of the political affairs hall."

Measuring the area on the map, Shouhan frowned. This area is the Nakhon Ratchasima Plateau, which is a semi-arid farmland area with extremely arid summers and very muddy rainy seasons, making it unsuitable for farming. "Even if it's reclamation, it won't be effective for a while!"

And the southern region occupied by Zhang Xiaohu has another characteristic.

The Chao Phrina River, as it is known in Siamese, is the Chao Phraya River, which flows right here and flows south into the Gulf of Siam. And not far away is the Malay Peninsula, for the famous Manraka, Shouhan has admired for a long time. "There is grain, there is timber for shipbuilding, and there is a passage with an excellent geographical location like Manraka, which is much stronger than the primeval forests in the northern mountains." Shouhan secretly swallowed his saliva.

"My lord, do you mean to abandon the north and take the south?" Seeing Shouhan's eyes staring at the area south of the city, Li Peilin began to speculate about the young lord's thoughts.

"However, in this area, although the terrain is gentle and the land is fertile, the rivers, lakes and ports are vertically and horizontally networked, and the annual rain is heavy, which is easy to cause river flooding, and I am afraid that it is not so easy to reclaim!"

"Fubo, this area is about 50,000 li up, if you had to choose, would you want the mountains in the north or the paddy fields in the south?"

The north is connected with Chenla, and it is geographically connected, but the geography, transportation and natural environment are relatively harsh, and what is more terrible is that if you want to completely occupy such an area, as calculated by Shouhan, I am afraid that you will have to prepare tens of thousands of village chiefs, of which there may be thousands of casualties, because there will be contact and friction with the native tribes in the mountains and forests, and wars will occur.

In comparison, the environment in the south is much better. Not only is the terrain flat and suitable for cultivation, but it is also connected to Chenla by land, and there are waterways to transport all kinds of supplies and personnel by boat.

"If it's me who chooses, I'm naturally going to choose the south. However, how can Wang Bao be appeased at the front line? ”
