Let's say that since the end of the third year of Daming Hongde, Shi Lang has been ordered to patrol the South China Sea. In addition to protecting merchant ships and fishing boats, it is also necessary to draw the discovered islands and reefs into the "Daming Sea Boundary Map" and establish a guard on the larger islands

In April of the fourth year of Daming Hongde, that is, when Song Youliang was busy fighting against Japan, Shi Lang happened to patrol the sea to the vicinity of Jiuluozhou (Xisha Islands), only to see the sea and the sky, the dolphins in the clear water frolicking freely in the water, and the seagulls did not settle on the top of the mast of the Ming warship

Shi Lang took a deep breath of salty air and stretched his waist, "The generals listen to the order, today we are going to the Nine Breast Luozhou to draw a sea chart, and you all cheer me up." ”

"Look, my lord~!" Suddenly, the sailors on the watchtower shouted, "There are people on the sea!" ”

"What?" Shi Lang immediately picked up the binoculars and peeked, and sure enough, he saw a person in front of the right side of the bow, holding a piece of wood and floating up and down in the sea.

"Get him up." Shi Lang decisively ordered

So the sailors immediately lowered the boat and rescued the man on the driftwood. The man had dark skin, chapped lips, and the exposed skin on his body had been peeled from the sun, apparently having been floating at sea for several days. After three days of treatment by the ship's military doctor, the man finally woke up

"You are ~~!" The man was in his forties and spoke with a Guangxi accent

"We belong to the Daming South China Sea Sailor." A general flag said, "This is our Lord Shi Langshi." ”

"Da Ming Water Master?" The man suddenly choked up, "Da Ming, I'm finally back in Da Ming." The man burst into tears

Shi Lang was surprised: "Looking at you like this, could it be that you have been pirated?" Shi Lang wondered in his heart, since Zheng Zhilong took over the affairs of the South China Sea, the pirates have either run away, have been co-opted, or have been eliminated. There shouldn't be pirates on the surface of the South China Sea

"No~ not a pirate." The man palpitated, "It's from Annan." ”

"Annanite?" Shi Lang was even more surprised and asked, "Could it be that the Annan people threw you into the sea?" ”

"Not really." The man cried: "The villain is from Yong'an Prefecture, Guangxi, and has been fishing for generations. A few days ago, as usual, I went to Jiuluo Island with a few villagers to fish. But somehow, I met the sailor of Annanguo. ”

"Annan National Sailor?" Shi Lang was even more puzzled, "What are they doing in Jiuruo Continent?" ”

"The people of Annam say that Jiuyu Luozhou is the maritime frontier of Annan, and if we want to fish there, we are stealing things from Annan." The man turned from weeping to anger, and said: "My family has been fishing in Jiuluozhou for three generations, and I have never heard that Jiuluozhou is from Annan. They arrested seven or eight of my fellow countrymen, and detained our boat, saying that we would pay 1,000 taels of silver before we let the boat go. A few of us are not popular, so we reasoned with them, and during the fight, the Annan people used knives, pity my fellow countrymen~~~" Speaking of this, the man cried bitterly again

"Curry Mother~~" Shi Lang scolded after hearing this: "Jiuyu Luozhou has been my Ming Dynasty's maritime frontier since ancient times, when will it be Annan's turn to get involved?" ”

Several other general flags and small flags also scolded: "Little Annan also dares to tease my big tiger beard, I think they don't want to live." ”

Shi Lang asked the man, "How many dead and wounded are you?" How many of your ships have been detained? ”

"Of the four sailing ships, three were wounded and three died, and the remaining fifteen people were probably captured by Annan!"

Shi Lang shouted angrily: "Pass my order, the whole fleet sails to the Nine Breast Luozhou, I want to see what kind of ambitious leopard gall the people of Annan have eaten." ”

"Order."

Immediately, a survey team consisting of four two-deck sailing boats sailed towards Jiuluozhou. Sure enough, the navy of Annan drove and reloaded the fishing boats of the Ming Dynasty near Jiuruluo Continent again.

"Curry Mother~" Shi Lang's lungs were about to explode, "Order, fire at the ships of Annan!" ”

"Order!" As soon as the gunners heard that they were going to open fire, they immediately loaded their shells with their hands and feet and opened fire on the "water army" in Annan, which was not much bigger than the fishing boats

The Annan navy was caught off guard, and three large ships were shot and caught fire, and the Annan people jumped into the sea to escape with a strange scream

"Fish a few up, Lao Tzu wants to talk to them." Shi Lang shouted

"Order."

In a moment, several Annamites were fished up from the sea by sailors with fishing nets, and three wet Annamites knelt on the deck and kowtowed to Shi Lang, muttering Annamite dialect in their mouths.

Shi Lang frowned and said, "Which of you can speak Chinese?" ”

"I~ I'll say." An Annanite who looked like a small leader replied with trepidation

"Go back and tell your lord that the Nine Breast Luozhou is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the people and ships of the Ming Dynasty can come and go freely. And if your ships of Annan want to come, they must get the approval of my Ming Dynasty. You know? Shi Lang said in a fierce voice

"I ~ got it!" The little leader replied quickly

"Give them a dinghy and let them go back." Shi Lang waved his hand, "If you let me bump into me next time, ask you to go to the sea to feed the mackerel." Roll~"

As soon as a few Annam people were granted amnesty, they quickly ran away

On July 15, the fourth year of Hongde, Shi Lang received a notice that An Guogong was going to come to the South China Sea to inspect. So after some preparations, Shi Lang confidently prepared to receive An Guogong. Who knows, as soon as Song Youliang arrived, he first gave Shi Lang a thick pile of reports from the governors of Guangzhou.

Shi Lang saw it, and immediately became angry, it came from the time after the sinking of the Annan boat in Jiuruluozhou, and then there were successive incidents from Guangxi and Guangdong about fishermen being attacked by Annan boats in Jiuluozhou. Although the local Ming army sailors would send warships to rescue, they were often one step too late.

"The Annam barbarian killed by thieves!" Shi Lang could clearly feel Song Youliang's dissatisfaction with him, and his efforts for more than a year before were likely to be ruined in the hands of these Annan barbarians

However, Song Youliang said: "General Shi, I have already seen the nautical chart you drawn, very good." ”

Shi Lang finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's a matter within the minister's responsibility." Don't dare to ask for credit. ”

Song Youliang said with a smile: "In the affairs of the Annan people, you have not done so well. ”

"The minister is guilty." Shi Lang hurriedly bowed

"The sin is not in you." Song Youliang put away his smile and said solemnly: "Little Annan also dares to covet my Ming territory, if you don't punish it, how will Ming establish its authority in the future?" How do you rule the clans? ”

Shi Lang was also angry with the Annan people, and said at the moment: "The minister is willing to be the vanguard, enter the country of Annan, and capture the lord of Annan and present it to the grandfather." ”

"Don't worry, knowing yourself and knowing that you will win all battles, you first take a look at the information collected by the Jinyi guards about Annan." Song Youliang handed over a large stack of notebooks to Shi Lang

In 214 BC, Qin Shi Huang set up three counties in the region: Nanhai, Guilin, and Xiang. In 207 BC, the "Nanyue Kingdom" was established. As a local separatist regime in China, the South Vietnamese regime existed for a century. In 111 BC, the Nanyue regime was shattered by the troops sent by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and from then on, Vietnam was under the direct jurisdiction of the Chinese feudal dynasty, and until the Song Dynasty of China, it was a Chinese county. It is called the "Gun Era". In the first 70 years of the 10th century, there were 12 secessionist regimes, known as the "Rebellion of the Twelve Envoys". In 679 AD, the Tang Dynasty set up the Annam Protectorate in South Vietnam, from which the name "Annam" derived. At the end of the 10th century, a feudal state was established. In 968 AD, Ding Buling took advantage of the opportunity of the local feudal forces in the last years of the Tang Dynasty to establish the Ding Dynasty, which was named "Da Viet Kingdom", established an independent feudal state, and began a new period in Vietnamese history. In 973 AD, Ding Buling was canonized as the king of Annam by Song Taizu, and maintained a "vassal relationship" with the Chinese feudal dynasty. Since then, Vietnam has gone through a period of consolidation and development of feudal states, and after several changes of dynasties, there have been feudal states such as the Dinh Dynasty, the Former Lê Dynasty, the Li Dynasty, and the Tran Dynasty. In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, there was a civil strife in Annam, and Li Cang usurped the throne of the Chen family, and deceived the Ming Dynasty into becoming the queen of the Chen family, and obtained the canonization of the Ming Dynasty.

Soon, Laos sent Chen Tianping, the brother of the late King of Annam, to the Ming Dynasty in the fourth year of Yongle (1406 AD) to escort Chen Tianping back to China, and was killed by the Li family. So the Ming Dynasty sent troops to attack Annam and captured Li Cang. In the absence of finding the descendants of the Chen family, Yu Yongle set up the Jiaozhi Bu Political Envoy in Annan in the fifth year of Yongle, with 17 prefectures, 47 prefectures, and 157 counties under its jurisdiction; At the same time, there is a command and envoy department, under the jurisdiction of 11 guards and 3 institutes. In 1428, Le Li established the Later Lê Dynasty and changed the name of the country to "Da Viet". In l527, Mo Dengyong, the minister of the Later Li Dynasty, usurped the throne, set up the capital of Thang Long, established the Mo Dynasty, and ruled the area north of Thanh Hoa, known as the "Northern Dynasty" in history; Therefore, from 1527 to 1592, the "Northern Dynasty" Mo regime that governed northern Vietnam during the "Northern and Southern Dynasties" period in Vietnamese history was engaged in a long-term war with the "Southern Dynasty" dictatorship of the "Southern Dynasty" in 1545, until the Zheng army occupied Thang Long in early 1592, basically ending the situation of the division between the north and the south. Since then, the "period of the reign of the Li clan as the king of the Zheng clan" began.

However, at this time, Nguyen Huang, the son of Nguyen Gan, who was guarding Hue, planned to establish his own power to confront the Zheng clan. Later, the two feudal lords of Nguyen Zheng finally broke out into civil war in 1627. The Nguyen feudal lords mainly based in Hue-Quang Nam established a local separatist regime, known as the "Quang Nam Kingdom" in the history of Vietnam.

Annam is not a small country, with a population of more than 2 million, but they are aggressive, slaughtering Champo, attacking Laos, and even often sending troops to harass China itself, and Vietnam is also the only one of China's Asian vassals who dare to claim to be the emperor internally.

Shi Lang became more and more angry, and he shouted: "A small country in Yuer, dare to be so presumptuous? My grandfather gave me 100,000 soldiers and horses, and I set foot in the south for my grandfather. ”

"Sea Thunderbolt is mighty~!" Song Youliang praised: "I have ordered Guangxi and Guangdong provinces to mobilize troops and horses, and you will attack Annan together with Li Dingguo, Ai Nengqi, and Liu Wenxiu." ”
