Of course, Yun Xi in the capital now doesn't know that a group of people he has been remembering for a long time who can be counted as his saviors have finally been found, and he is now doing more important things. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Minister Xu Jingchang (Li Xunhai) has seen Your Majesty." The two young generals knelt down and said to Yun Xi.

"Excuse me, get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The two of them were naturally the envoys sent by He Rong to report to Yun Xi about the Battle of the Three Buddhas. The two of them had been preparing for a long time before meeting Yun Xi, whether Yun Xi wanted to listen to the detailed version of the report or the concise version of the report, they could come with their mouths open, and they all remembered the details of the war, and there would never be a situation where they were asked by Yun Xi.

However, Yun Xi did not immediately start asking about the war. He opened his mouth and said, "Xu Jingchang,"

Xu Jingchang immediately bowed down and replied, "The minister is here." ”

"This time we fought in the South Seas, but did you really go to the battlefield?"

"Your Majesty, the minister did lead troops to fight with the soldiers of Majapahit in the Three Buddhas, and killed a few people."

Yun Xi was actually a little skeptical, but he still smiled: "Not bad." ”

Then Yun Xi turned his head to Li Xunhai and said: "I look at your resume, you are a native of Jinjiang, your father participated in my Ming Dynasty's water division, and then your son inherited his father's business and entered the water division, and then he was promoted to 100 households after repeated military exploits, and this time he made great achievements and was promoted to 1,000 households?" ”

"Yes, yes, it would be great if Daming could be a talent like you."

Li Xunhai said: "Your Majesty has praised it falsely, this is all a matter within the courtiers' duties, and it should not be praised by Your Majesty." ”

Yun Xi said: "Why not? Meritorious service should be rewarded, and there should be punishment for mistakes, this is a matter of course, what should not be done? ”

"You are all young generals, and I am different from the emperors you have seen in the history books, and I will definitely praise those who have made meritorious contributions, and I will definitely not bury your merits."

"Don't follow the example of those generals who are no longer young, and speak to me with extreme humility. I like you young, outspoken generals, and you deserve praise and rewards for your achievements. Don't say anything wrong in the future. ”

Li Xunhai and Xu Jingchang didn't know how much they had heard in their hearts, so they just bowed down and said, "The minister knows." ”

Yun Xi couldn't immediately instill his views into the hearts of these ministers, and he could only say them once at a time. I hope these people will listen to me." Yun Xi thought.

Then Yoon-hee began to ask about the war.

Xu Jingchang immediately spoke: "Your Majesty, on March 20 this year, after the sailor who was not subordinate set off from Songjiang Mansion, he went south to Quanzhou. After repairing in Quanzhou for a few days, the troops divided into two routes, one was led by Zhang Xiaodong and Zhang led by the envoy to the south to Luzon, and the other was the fleet led by Uncle He himself to continue along the coastline to the west, until it reached Qiongzhou Island before heading south to Siam. ”

"The ships to Siam and Luzon arrived in June, and His Majesty's decree ordered the two vassal states to send troops to accompany the Great Tomorrow to fight against the unvassals."

But the responses from the two countries were very different. It didn't take long for Siam to receive His Majesty's order and send 3,000 troops to follow the campaign. ”

"The minister was in the fleet to Siam at that time, and it is said that the king of Siam stood at the top of the palace and saw the Ming ships moored in the distant harbor with a total number of stones (tonnage) exceeding the total number of stones of the warships in Siam, and immediately accepted the order."

"But Luzon refused to accept His Majesty's will and did not respect the order of the Ming Dynasty to send troops."

"Commander Zhang wanted to punish Luzon, but it was already July, and news of Majapahit's refusal of His Majesty's order to withdraw their troops from Srivijaya had reached Luzon. In order not to delay the time to enter the army, Commander Zhang set off from Luzon and rushed to Srivijaya without punishment. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Jingchang secretly glanced up at Yun Xi, now there are many people in the Ming Dynasty who regard Yun Xi as a person who is very happy, and Xu Jingchang is also one of them, so he is afraid that Yun Xi will blame Zhang Xiaodong for not punishing Luzon.

However, he looked at Yun Xi and did not change his expression, and he was slightly relieved.

"In September, the two sailors converged at Srivijaya and set out to fight against the sailors of Majapahit after repairing the dock outside the old port for ten days."

Although Xu Jingchang said that it was a lot of chaos, it can be summed up in one sentence: after several hours of great battle, the Majapahit sailors were completely annihilated, and the Daming sailors shelled the ports of Majapahit, destroying all the docks and other port facilities, while the Daming sailors only sank two ships of less than 500 stones, more than 20 people were killed in battle, and more than 100 people were injured.

Then He Rong led the sailors back to the Old Port.

At this time, the Lu Shi led by Hua Ying had also arrived in Srivijaya. After that, "Uncle Ho led the soldiers of the Guangdong Guards, the soldiers of the three vassal states of Siam, Brunei, and Suventana, as well as the soldiers of the Srivijaya Kingdom, to attack the soldiers of the Majapahit in Srivijaya. ”

"How can those Majapahit soldiers be the opponents of my Great Tomorrow soldiers, they will be defeated and retreated in a few days, and when the ministers return to Daming from Srivijaya, there are only some places left on the seaside. In those coastal areas, although the Majapahit sailors have been completely wiped out, but the island of Java is very close to Majapahit, and they can still get some support, and there are many forests on the seaside, so it is difficult to completely defeat the remnants of the Majapahit army for a while. ”

"However, Uncle He is willing to make a military order, and he must completely defeat the remnants of the Majapahit before February 2 of the second year of Jianye."

After listening to this, Yun Xi immediately said: "He Rong actually doesn't have to be like this, although I want to pacify the Three Buddhas as soon as possible, but the lives of the Ming soldiers are more important. ”

"I'll give him an order at once, so that he doesn't have to rush for speed."

Xu Jingchang replied: "Yes" and then said: "Your Majesty, the people of the Three Buddhas unanimously petitioned His Royal Highness King Shen and Uncle He after the Heavenly Soldiers of the Ming Dynasty rescued them from fire and water, wanting His Royal Highness King Shen to be the monarch of the Three Buddhas. Liang Daoming, the current monarch of the Three Buddhas, also said that the virtuous person on the throne is willing to abdicate and make way for Xian, and he is also willing to return to the Ming Dynasty. ”

"His Royal Highness King Shen has asked His Majesty whether he wants to accept the throne of the King of the Three Buddhas."

In fact, the truth is so simple as Xu Jingchang said! Liang Daoming really doesn't want to be the monarch anymore, and the Chinese who follow him are also willing to let the prince of the Ming Dynasty be their monarch. However, the local natives of Srivijaya have different wishes, and most of them are actually unwilling to let the prince of the Ming Dynasty be the king.

But now it is a special situation, the army of the Majapahit is still raging in their land, although the Majapahit sailors have been completely wiped out, but the strength of the Majapahit is still far above the Three Buddhas. If the Great Tomorrow army withdraws, it won't be long before the Majapahit will make a comeback, and they will still be tortured.

And the local leaders all understand that the reason why Da Ming is willing to send troops to rescue them is mostly because he wants his own prince to be the king. If they resolutely resist this time, Da Ming may not say much if he is afraid of face, but next time he wants to let Da Ming's heavenly soldiers come again, it is estimated that it is impossible, and they are not an important country like North Korea.

And Zhu Mo and He Rong have also been moving around, countless promises have been made, and Zhu Mo also publicly admitted that he believes in Buddhism and is very polite to local monks. After this series of efforts, the local leaders finally agreed to make Jumo the king of Sriwijayaya.

Although Yunxi didn't know this complicated process, he could guess it. But he doesn't care how the process goes, as long as the goal is achieved. So Yun Xi said happily: "How can I not allow it!" I immediately decreed that he should accept the throne of the Three Buddhas. ”

It's just that Yun Xi stood up and said, "Since it is a new country, of course it must have a new country name." I'd better discuss a new country name before making an order. There is no rush at this time. ”

Then Yun Xi pondered for a while and asked, "How many casualties did the Great Ming Lu Division have in total?" ”

Li Xunhai said: "Guangdong mobilized more than 23,000 people from the four guards to fight in Srivijaya, and now about 1,000 people have been killed and more than 2,000 disabled. ”

Yun Xi secretly said in his heart: "You also have to remember how to formulate the bereavement benefits for these people in the will given to He Rong and Hua Ying." ’

In addition, although the soldiers who were killed and injured in the rebellion this time have been given compensation according to the highest standards, those who died are just enough, and the family members can continue to serve as soldiers, and those who are disabled are a huge burden to the family, and we have to think about how to deal with them. ’

Yun Xi asked again: "How many soldiers are there in the Majapahit, how many have been destroyed now, how many have been captured, and how many are left?" ”

Xu Jingchang replied: "There are about forty or fifty thousand people in the Three Buddhas, but there are only 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers among them, and the rest are the auxiliaries they say. Now more than 20,000 people have been destroyed, about 20,000 have been taken prisoner, and they have less than 10,000. ”

"About 1,000 people were salvaged in the water battle, and they were also held with these prisoners."

After that, Xu Jingchang paused again before saying: "Originally, there would have been more prisoners, but the people of the Three Buddhas hated these Majapahit soldiers and killed a lot of prisoners. ”

Yun Xi didn't care about this: since he had decided to focus on Fu in the Three Buddhas, he always put them in front of the people of the Majapahit, and let them kill a few people of the Majapahit to vent their grievances, and their grievances finally came to Daming.

In the decree given to them later, I will say that all the soldiers of the Majapahiti, who are seriously wounded and disabled, should be thrown to the Srivijaya and disposed of at their disposal. Yun Xi thought.

After that, Yun Xi asked a few more questions, and Xu Jingchang answered them all. Yun Xi finally said calmly: "I'm fine, you can go down." ”
