Chapter Fifty-Nine: Annam's Soldiers

The status quo was favorable to Lincha, who barely concealed it and anchored on the shore. Send someone to inform both parties. After receiving the news, Zheng Zhu was a little disappointed and relieved.

In the situation of chicken ribs, he had to think about how to end the game, and Xia Jun suddenly appeared here, he knew that he might not be able to fight, but it also solved his current predicament. However, he still had a feeling of unwillingness in his heart. The reason is simple. He did a few things before he went south.

It was in order to attack the authority of the Li clan and replace the Li emperor with a new one.

Although the Later Li Dynasty, after the usurpation of the Mo family, after several repetitions, there was no longer any authority. But even the tablet has a little bit of influence.

Lord Zheng has succeeded to the throne for more than ten years, from the prime of life to the old age. The first attack launched four southern expeditions, and this one was a southern expedition. It was his last southern expedition, after all, the years were unforgiving, he saved the idea of finishing his work in one battle, in order to unify his internal thoughts, he abolished it without authorization, and also brought the little emperor of the Hou Li Dynasty over.

Almost all the weights inside and outside were pressed, and they also took advantage of the fierce battle between Xia Qing and had no time to take care of it.

Now that the times have changed, the soldiers are tired and the country is poor, like the end of a strong crossbow, some of them are just his unwillingness. This news became the last straw that affected his decision, he sighed, and sent his son to the army of Lincha, although he did not give much instructions, but what to do, it was already implied clearly.

This is the case here in the Zheng family, but in the Ruan family, it is a different situation.

"Dad, this is a godsend." The prince of the Ruan family said: "Old thief Zheng, the old soldier is tired, and the Xia army has come to mediate, thinking that at this time, he will definitely relax his vigilance, and the child will transfer eight hundred war elephants from the south, which can be used for a blow." ”

"In the opinion of the sons, they will definitely be able to defeat the Zheng thief."

The son of the Nguyen family is named Nguyen Phuc Binh. He was also a first-class figure in history, and was called Emperor Taizong by the Nguyen Dynasty. The first major event he took on the stage of history was the Battle of Changde, which defeated the main force of the Zheng family, and threw off the horse of the Qing capital who was now the king of Zheng in the southern and northern wars. reversed the situation of Zheng Qiang and Ruan's weakness. It was not until the Zheng clan took advantage of the rebellion of the three feudatories, destroyed the Mo family, and unified the north that they had the strength to go south again.

It can be seen that in this battle, the Zheng family has not eased up for decades.

Decades later, Nguyen Jin had already captured Champa and intervened in Chenla, gaining a foothold in the Mekong Delta.

It is no longer the Ruan family, which is now in danger, and has the initiative strategically.

Nguyen Phuc Bracket is also a great talent. But now his talents are not allowed to be used, because his father is still there.

"Ahem, ahem." Lord Ruan couldn't stop coughing, covering his mouth with a handkerchief, he wanted to hide his condition, but found that he was from his mouth

There was so much blood that the handkerchief was pierced. The crimson blood was like a bright flower blooming.

Ruan Phuc didn't dare to look directly, but lowered his head with tears in his eyes.

When Lord Ruan put away his handkerchief, he saw it, he smiled bitterly and said, "You saw it." Now I won't hide it from you, my illness will not be cured, and it will be a day to hide it. The most important thing for you now is not to fight with Zheng Lao Thief for a while, but to put my position next. ”

"Revenge will come a long way."

"Yes." Ruan Phuc could only agree.

This year can be said to be the most difficult year for the Ruan family, with internal and external troubles. The front-line soldiers were defeated like a mountain, almost irretrievable, and the old Ruan master in the back was seriously ill and did not dare to leak a trace of it outside. At this time, as long as the news of the old Ruan master's serious illness spreads, it can be imagined that the hearts of the generals of the Ruan family will fluctuate.

In history, it was the old Ruan Lord who couldn't do it. Ruan Phuc had to implement his own plan and raid the Zheng family, although the Zheng family was defeated in a battle, and more than 3,000 people were captured alone, as for the army that died in the river and was scattered, it was countless, which directly determined the luck of more than a dozen on both sides.

On the night of the Ruan family's victory, the old Ruan master was breathless.

As for whether the old Ruan lord died after receiving the news of victory, or whether he went with the last worries, it is not clear.

Many times, people are forced to a desperate situation before they can burst out of amazing miracles, but now the Ruan family has reached a desperate situation, but the Xia Dynasty has come to save their lives. Ruan Phuc Binh's crazy plan was stopped.

"My son, hurry up and visit General Lin, the glimmer of life of my Ruan family is in General Lin, with the support of General Lin, there is the support of the Great Xia Imperial Court, and the support of the Great Xia Imperial Court, no matter how arrogant the Zheng family is, he will not dare to be presumptuous."

"This is the only life for my Ruan family."

"Remember to do my best to the Ruan family, I will definitely marry the court."

Ruan Phuc Wei said: "The child understands. ”

"Go now, go back quickly." Old Ruan Lord coughed and said, "If you hear the message that everything is fine, it means that I have already gone." Be sure to come back as soon as possible to preside over the overall situation. Some things don't last long. ”

"The child understands." Nguyen Phuc said.

The Zheng family dared to delay one or two, but the Ruan family did not dare to delay a little, Ruan Fuwei almost got the news, and immediately stepped up day and night, and added the Ruan family's sailors above the Zheng family, so before the Zheng family, boarded Lin Cha's big ship.

Ruan Phuc brought a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, and almost emptied the Ruan family's treasury. After seeing Lin Cha, Ruan Fuwei cried loudly and said, "Please also ask the general to save my Ruan family." ”

Nguyen Phuc was on the verge of merging

He was not a brainless person, he thought about it and decided that there was only one way to get Lin Cha's help, and the only way was to show weakness. Desperately showing weakness, he took out the appearance of crying Qin Ting, begging bitterly, no matter the slightest preparation, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw by himself.

It's just that Lin Cha is not easy to decide on his own. Although he was already inclined to the Ruan family in his heart. But only those who have to meet the Zheng family will decide who to support and who to suppress. 、

So he said in an official tone: "Ruan Shizi, you misunderstood, I came here on the order of the Duke of Min to drive out Hongyi. You are all vassals of our dynasty. And Hongyi is thousands of miles away, good for profit and light on righteousness, and does not understand the teachings of saints. Not only the enemy of this dynasty, but also the enemy of you, at this critical moment. The Ruan family and the Zheng family are still good at turning hostility into friendship. ”

Ruan Fuwei heard Lin Cha say these correct nonsense, as if he had just woken up from a dream, as if he didn't know that Daxia was interested in Annan, and said: "I, the Ruan family, am willing to do my best to help the Celestial Empire, the Celestial Empire wants to go on an expedition to the South Seas, starting from Guangzhou, it is too far, my Ruan family is willing to open the ports of various places to the Celestial Empire sailors for free, and I am also willing to provide grain and grass for the Celestial Empire sailors." ”

Lin Cha listened to Ruan Fuwei's speech, and his heart moved slightly. To be honest, he didn't think about getting a port, or a base, in Annam, and he thought it seemed good to hear the Ruan family say this. But it didn't change his decision.

This trip to Annan is, in a sense, already the private work of the governor of Guangzhou, and if there is an additional port in the territory of the Ruan family, it will still be a troublesome matter for him to send people to garrison it.

"Please let His Royal Highness the Prince rest assured, I will definitely persuade the Zheng family master well, and the two families will reconcile." Lin Cha said.

Nguyen Phuc is not just talking about it. It's real support. Seeing that Lin Cha had been like this, he was inevitably anxious. The Ruan family was forced to the edge of the cliff, and under the defeat, the national strength was far inferior to the Zheng family, and the remaining territory was mostly in the mountains. Outputs are limited.

After the Zheng family came over, the conditions offered would definitely be higher than his.

"What to do. What to do. Ruan Fuwei's heart turned I don't know how many turns, and I couldn't think of any words to impress Lin Cha for a while.

Suddenly, he saw a probe outside to probe his brain, it was the person next to him, Ruan Fu was furious in his heart, and secretly said at this critical time, what kind of trouble did he come to make trouble. Lin Cha also saw it and said, "The prince should go out." Let the retainers be like this, something must have happened. ”

"Yes, Xiao Chen, I'll go and take a look." Ruan Phuc said, then bowed and walked out. He reprimanded sharply: "What is it? I don't know how long it is. ”

"Shizi, it was said that it was 100,000 urgent, and a letter came." This attendant handed the letter to Ruan Phuc Bin.

Ruan Phuc opened it and looked at it, his whole body stiffened, and the whole person was motionless, as if it was a statue.
