The sailors appeared, like a group of strong men, rushed into the kindergarten, almost one-sidedly beaten.

In the evening, Thanh Hoa was broken.

In fact, the Annan army and horses, which had not fought for seventy or eighty years, had long since decayed and were almost crushed at the touch of a button.

Hu Kaishan scolded and scolded, because a group of sailors were coaxing the head, and at this time, even Hu Kaishan's scolding and scolding was not very effective.

The next day, Annan was shaken.

Obviously, the Annamite people could not imagine that their belly and back were actually attacked by the enemy, and what was even more terrifying was that these enemies at sea only took a few hours to take down thousands of Annam military horses in Thanh Hoa.

With this kind of combat power, it is very easy for people to mistakenly think that the Ming army has the main force to arrive here, and the number is only afraid, more than 10,000 people.

Moreover, since the Ming army can come from the sea, then, in the future, will there be a steady stream of reinforcements from military horses?

This really makes the entire Annan Kingdom like a frightened bird, Qinghua is different from Yungui from Shenglong.

It seems that it is only a distance of hundreds of miles, but Qinghua to Thang Long is a flat land, once you want to attack north, you can arrive in a few days, this sudden appearance of the Ming army is really terrifying, people do not understand the opponent, it is inevitable to be afraid.

Now, the national capital is under the nose of the Ming army, how dare the king of Annam ignore it, no one wants to put himself in danger, so he immediately sent envoys to recall the armies from all walks of life.

The strategy of the Annam people has changed greatly, since the Ming army appeared in the south, then, a large number of military horses in the north to defend the Ming army is no longer meaningful, since they stick to Shenglong, relying on the tall city wall of Shenglong, it is important to stick to it.

This is almost the only choice for the Annamite people, the enemy of Thanh Hoa, it is not clear whether their specific strength, whether it will follow, will send more reinforcements from the sea, rash siege, may make Thang Long empty, so that the Ming army that appears at any time at sea can take advantage of it, if the Ming army lands in other places and takes Thang Long directly, it will be a terrible thing.

The elite of Annam, hundreds of thousands of people, began to gather in Thang Long, and the people of Annam were ready to adopt the strategy of clearing the wilderness with strong walls, and all the grain in the suburbs was brought into Thang Long, and the mountains of grain, cattle and horses, forage, and soldiers were piled up like mountains in this largest city in Annam.

Thang Long is not only the capital of Annam, but also a giant city, this city is built in imitation of the capital of the Central Plains, the scale of the city, especially huge, and the same as the capital of the Ming Dynasty, there are inner cities, outer cities, imperial cities, the city walls are built with blue bricks and huge momentum, after hundreds of years from the Li Dynasty of Annam to the present, it has been hundreds of years, these hundreds of years, the scale of the city, increasing day by day, is not trivial.

Hiding here, it is safe, not to mention, the Ming army turned out, the supply was long, as long as there were enough soldiers and horses to hold here, no matter how strong the wall was cleared, not a single grain would be given to the Ming army, as long as it persisted, it would not be a problem to hold for ten years.

…………

A letter of urgent news was sent to Guizhou, and the Ming army in Guizhou, left and right, did not see His Majesty's will, as if here, had been forgotten by the imperial court, and heard that the guards had launched an attack, therefore, the vanguard military horses of Guizhou, headed by the pioneer battalion, began to enter Annam.

Half a month later, the Ming army arrived at the plain near Thang Long, but they were faced with a ruined wall and bare ridges after all the grain had been harvested.

Although the army is assembled in Thang Long, but all the prefectures and counties in Annam, for the Ming army, with natural hostility, resistance activities, not small, especially the scouts who were released, in one day, there were more than a dozen dead and wounded, not only that, occasionally, the auxiliary soldiers who transported grain and grass in the rear were always attacked, the attackers were all Annam militia in nearby states and counties, they were dozens of people, or several people, no matter how many, they only gathered hundreds of people, but between the forests and mountain streams, they were elusive, encountered the grain team, immediately attacked, if they encountered stubborn resistance, Then immediately retreated and hid in Lin Mang.

After receiving a letter of report, Fang Jinglong, who personally led the troops into Annan, seemed very worried.

He is recovering from a serious illness, his body is fine, and this way to the south, very smooth, this time into Annan, there are 20,000 soldiers and horses, there are almost no obstacles, not to mention, there are elite mountain battalions as the vanguard, I don't know if the follow-up, the imperial court will send military horses to help.

But under this smooth march, there are too many uncertain factors hidden, the grain team in the rear is attacked all the time, so that the supply of food is always intermittent, and to protect the grain team, you have to send more military horses to guard, which makes the current troops, already stretched, but in front of them, it is thousands of miles of red land, the people of Annam are strong and clear, stuck in the tall Thang Long City, attack and attack, and no one to fight with themselves, what is this for.

But at this time, the flying ball camp that sharpened the knife had arrived.

The five hundred flying balls that were urgently sent were prepared, and a large amount of fuel and Molotov cocktails had also arrived.

Yang Biao and others, after observing the direction of the wind, that night, the flying players who had slept well during the day got up, they gathered together, slaughtered pigs and sheep, and feasted at the hour.

Shen Ao ordered people to assemble, and immediately, the ground staff had already prepared, and the five hundred flying balls had already been inflated and lit up the canister of fire oil.

Then, one by one, the flying players have put on leather coats, put on goggles, entered the rattan basket, one by one, flying balls, after untying the rope, then one by one flew into the sky, nearly 500 flying balls, one by one, it took half an hour.

At this time, Shen Ao and Yang Biao had already gone to the sky.

For them, such actions are like eating and sleeping, and there is no difficulty.

Shen Ao directly covered himself with a blanket and put it in the rattan basket: "I'll sleep first, and when I get to the place, call me to get up." ”

Yang Biao muttered: "I'm still sleeping, and I'm not afraid of suffocating my urine." ”

Shen Ao turned over and stood in the rattan basket, looking down from above, except for the stars in the sky, the ground was dark.

Shen Ao sighed with emotion: "Do you know, my sister, he is pregnant. ”

Yang Biao scratched his head: "I have a few sisters, the eldest one, and the granddaughter is going to hug me." ”

"You know what." Shen Ao found that communicating with Yang Biao was so tired: "My sister-in-law is the crown princess." ”

"The crown princess should also give birth to a baby, giving birth to a baby is something that a woman does, and it is a matter of course." Yang Biao adjusted the fire power of the fire oil jar while looking indifferent.

"You don't understand, think about it, if it's a male baby, if it's a male baby, this is the emperor's grandson, do you understand?"

Yang Biao patted his head and sighed: "Look at my head, I see, that is, I want to be the emperor in the future?" ”

Although Shen Ao is a cautious person, but for such a big thing, he still can't help but be proud, after receiving the letter from home, he was excited to jump up, but it was not easy to talk to others, but Yang Biao was different, Yang Biao was his partner, so he couldn't hold back.

Shen Ao said: "Don't talk nonsense, Your Majesty and the crown prince are still here, what emperor, talking nonsense." He excitedly looked at the darkness in the distance: "I, who is an uncle, the most important thing now is to make more contributions, I can't make people think that our Shen family is unproductive, to be honest, if I hadn't met my master, I would have been just a son and brother in my life, and my master is really amazing." ”

Yang Biao bowed his head: "My mother also said the same, and I am also a subordinate." ”

"Okay, don't talk too much, get to work." The wind in the sky was very strong, especially when it reached a layer of airflow, and the wind from north to south was whistling, blowing flying balls, all the way south.

An hour later.

In order to guard against the Ming army, the towering city walls are full of soldiers and horses patrolling back and forth, they are holding weapons, not daring to slack off, patrolling back and forth.

In the palace, the lights are even brighter, and Li Huan, the king of Annam, is still convening ministers to discuss the plan to deal with the Ming army.

For the monarchs and ministers of Annan, the most suspicious thing about this matter is why the Ming Southern Expedition was issued by the crown prince, rather than by the Ming Emperor, and then waited for the edict to be drafted, stamped by the celebrant and sealed, and then sent to the cabinet for promulgation.

Behind this, there are obviously too many strange things.

And the fall of Thanh Hoa, so that the original was still full of ambition, self-proclaimed Emperor Annam, Li Han worried, he never expected that the Ming army would come from the sea, in the face of such an unbelievable thing, his first thought was the safety of Thang Long, Thang Long is the national capital, once attacked, it is not trivial, therefore, he immediately issued an order, ordered the army to return to defend Thang Long.

Some people think that the Ming army is not enough to be afraid, thinking that back then, the Ming army invaded Annan, and in the end, did not also suffer hardship, and finally obediently withdrew, they think that the current Ming Dynasty, compared to the Emperor Wen, is more weak, as long as it persists to the end, the Ming army will be defeated.

However, some people believe that instead of fighting the Ming army, it is better to give in and get rid of the emperor immediately, and at the same time express obedience to the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, the latter is a minority after all, in Annam, the trend of arrogance has long been born, the royal family calls themselves emperors, and they think that Annam is the Chinese Zhengshuo, they regard the Ming Dynasty as the Northern Dynasty, although externally, it is to the Ming Dynasty, but all the utensils of Li Hui, even the temple number for their ancestors, are to follow the standard of the Ming Emperor.

At this time, there is Annan Hanlin is violent, and he said sternly: "Your Majesty does not have to worry about the military horses of the Northern Dynasty, the Northern Dynasty has always conquered my Southern Dynasty, none of them succeeded, they are just bluffing, and I am the Tiger Ben of the Southern Dynasty, hundreds of thousands of people, working together, what is the trouble of the Northern Dynasty barbarians, now Your Majesty only needs to hold on, and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack, he will fall into the Northern Dynasty, and the Northern Dynasty will draw the river and rule, including the land of the North Dynasty and the south of the Yangtze River, then the great cause of the ancestors will be successful." ”

The momentum of what he said was like a rainbow, which made people can't help but feel excited.

The people of Annam have always regarded themselves very highly, otherwise they would never have such wolf ambitions.

Someone secretly said yes.

But at this time, an Annan eunuch outside stumbled in: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Enemy attack, enemy attack ......"
