On the other side of Thang Long is Phu Ra Province.

The small Red River Delta was divided into seven or eight state capitals by the Li Dynasty of South Vietnam, and most of the state capitals were actually the size of a county in the Central Plains.

The purpose is obvious.

But the trick is not old, just work.

The Li Dynasty seized the world of the former Li Dynasty, that is, it carried out a centralized power like Zhao Kuangyin, and the strong and weak branches. The original ten roads were divided into twenty-four roads, and later changed to three villages in four prefectures and thirteen states.

Thang Long is one of them, and Phu Liang is also one of them. Therefore, the importance of this place needs no more to say.

Ruan Xiaoqi and Hu Yanqing led the army to defeat Li Changxian, the general of the Right Guard, who was Li Changjie's younger brother, who hurriedly led his army south.

Li Changjie died 16 years ago, and was posthumously presented by Li Qiande with "Entering the Inner Palace, Inspecting the Captain, Pingzhang Military Affairs, and Yue Guogong", eating 10,000 households, and inheriting the marquis with his younger brother Li Changxian. But although Li Changxian can become one of the first-class magnates of the Li Dynasty because of this, he cannot inherit all of Li Changjie's power. Otherwise, Li Qiande would have become a puppet.

In fact, the current lieutenant of the Li Dynasty is Liu Qingtan, and he has nothing to do with Li Changjie. And this is also a eunuch, the Li Dynasty political system has a famous feature, that is, it will reuse Zhongguan (eunuch), such as Li Changjie and Liu Qingtan, all of whom have gone through the "Qing body" (clean body) to become a Tai Lieutenant. Therefore, Tong Guan was reincarnated in the right place, he should have been born in South Vietnam.

Liu Qingtan is the same as Li Changjie, they were both serious officials and senior officials before, and they came from famous families, which shows that the middle officials of the Li Dynasty have a special status in their political territory.

Maybe it was influenced by the Southern Han Dynasty. The latter is known as the fine tradition of 'if you want to be an official before you go to the palace'.

After defeating Li Changxian's troops, Ruan Xiaoqi and Hu Yanqing, as well as Ruan Xiaowu, who had just arrived with the troops, did not dare to be careless, and they already knew that the main forces of the Li Dynasty had returned south one after another, and the real big war was coming.

The Qi army went south first, and the purpose was not to capture the thief and capture the king first, but to besiege the city and send reinforcements. Taking advantage of Thang Long Province, the place where the South Vietnamese army must be saved, all the main forces of the South Vietnamese army going north were pulled back to the banks of the Red River. Then he defeated it in one fell swoop and defeated the main force of South Vietnam.

Even Lu Qian didn't want to kill Li Qiande now, the latter was still useful and useful.

He has been respected in South Vietnam for 50 years, and his influence is huge and his reputation is huge. If such a king is alive, he is a benchmark for the Yue people. It can guide the Yue people from all over the country to resist the 'invasion' of the Central Plains army one after another.

In this way, Wang Qingjun, Zhong Xiangjun and Fang Lajun, who poured in later, could let go of their hands and fight. Lu Qian: This is for the sake of the future.

You must know that although South Vietnam is small, it is a rich place. And Wang Qing, Zhong Xiang, Fang La and others must be desperate to dig three feet into the ground in order to raise more money and food. Now they can act recklessly in South Vietnam under the banner of suppressing civilian disorder, and it is not more comfortable for rats to fall into the rice barn. In this way, it is better to take the opportunity to provoke a conflict between them.

Lu Qianyi just took the opportunity to attack Zhong Xiang and Wang Qing, and he could have someone else carry the black pot, which couldn't be more beautiful; The second is the 'ambition' of killing the Yue people.

Do good to them. Those big families, those officials and literati, should all die.

If you want him to say that Ming Chengzu had to use troops against South Vietnam several times back then, each time using hundreds of thousands of troops. This is naturally due to Zhu Di's own reasons - the reason why the Ming army was able to successfully pacify South Vietnam at the beginning was mainly because the Hu regime was harsh and the people did not adhere to it. However, the hasty decision to regain South Vietnam after the victory was a clear mistake.

You know, that's three hundred years later. South Vietnam has been independent for four to five hundred years since the fifth dynasty of Wu Quan, and once it is directly under the administration of China, it will inevitably be resisted by the people of all strata of South Vietnam.

But another important reason is that Zhu Di subconsciously regards the South Vietnamese as his own.

If the local noble families were wiped out or all relocated to other places, would there still be people in South Vietnam who could start a large-scale rebellion? He can throw Ming Yuzhen's son to Goryeo, why can't he?

Those families have left South Vietnam, who will know them. It's like a fish leaving the water, and it will kill the aftermath in one fell swoop.

At the same time, the killings were a little too light. Zhang Fu beheaded thousands of people and built a Jingguan to subdue the South Vietnamese. Doesn't that seem like a small amount? If you don't kill tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, why do you make people obedient?

For those wild people who have grass growing in their hearts, then don't treat them as human beings.

Ming Chengzu was not prepared enough, but Emperor Lu was very well built in his heart, he had this ruthlessness, he had already greeted Yang Lin and Shi Xiu, and asked them to call people to follow. There are so many dingkou in Nan'an, isn't it a good place for manpower firms!

At present, the Central Plains is full of manpower. The Ministry of Industry is like a bottomless pit, the swarthy hole swallows up wave after wave of labor, and it will never be full.

And skip this gossip. Now Ruan Xiaoqi and Hu Yanqing have set foot in Fuliang Mansion. One cannon after another was unloaded from the warship and then laboriously pulled to the South Vietnamese barracks.

This was a partial division of the defeated Li Changxian's South Vietnamese Army after it was reorganized. Staying on the north bank of the Red River is to watch the Qi army on the water. At that time, Ruan Xiaoqi and Hu Yanqing had already set up water villages on both sides of the Red River, and there was a momentum of continuing to increase troops.

Soon after, Ruan Xiaowu led his troops to arrive, and in fact, a branch of Fang La's army had already arrived in Qiongzhou.

The South Vietnamese army watched the enemy place the artillery positions one by one in an orderly manner, and the Yue people knew the power of the artillery during the days when the naval division of the Qi army entered the Red River.

They also have sailors. Although the ship was pitiful. Even without artillery, the difference between the South Vietnamese naval division and the Qi army's naval division is the difference between a rabbit and a tiger. But with the addition of artillery, thunderbolts and other firearms, that is the gap between ants and elephants.

The Yue people worship elephants very much.

Whether it is the Shenglong army on the south bank of the Red River or the army on the north bank of the river, every time they fight with the Qi army, they all use the war elephants as pioneers.

As a result, when the Qi army arrived, the artillery rang out, not to mention the naked elephants, even the elephants in armor were just vulnerable to flesh.

If you hit it with a cannon, you will die next to it, and you will die if you rub it.

The thick body of the elephant was still pierced, broken, and broken, and the flesh and blood were blurred. The loud noise and the light of the fire frightened them even more.

Therefore, seeing that the Qi army, which had been staying in the water village now, suddenly pulled the artillery and threatened it. The cowards in the South Vietnamese barracks were like frightened turtles and did not dare to stick their heads out.

They didn't dare to escape, Ruan Xiaoqi led the troops to watch from the side of the barracks; But he didn't dare to fight back against the Qi army, so he could only be like a turtle, shrinking his head and letting it go. How low the morale of the South Vietnamese soldiers will be, just look at the disdainful expressions of the Qi troops outside the city.

Even Hu Yanqing himself felt that the South Vietnamese officers in it were too earth-shattering.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Ten three-pound cannons, which are different from the tiger squat cannon, were arranged one by one. The Qi army built an artillery position outside the Vietnamese barracks. The South Vietnamese soldiers, who had never shown their heads, were safe before the artillery made a sound, but once the artillery was powerful, their thin fence and wall, even if it was only a three-pound shell, could not be prevented at all.

"Boom, boom—" The cannon roared.

One cannon after another fired in unison, the iron-blue muzzles spewed out hot fire, and the rising white smoke shrouded the sky over the artillery positions.

As soon as the shot was fired, each gun fell backwards in unison, and the gun carriage rushed up the slope behind the gun position, and then rumbled down again when the recoil was exhausted. There is also a slope in front of the gun emplacement, but it is much shorter than the one behind. When the gun carriage rushed up and retreated, there was not much strength left.

Such a structure was designed by Emperor Lu.

He did not know what the real front-loading artillery positions in history looked like. Before he crossed over, he had also watched several war films of the Napoleonic era shot by Europeans, in which the cannon was reset by people. Therefore, it is not known whether the artillery positions in history are really like that. At present, the artillery position of the Qi army was designed by him out of thin air.

There are not many other benefits, the biggest advantage is labor-saving.

Under the action of two slopes, it only takes a few moments for the gun position to be restored, and after adjusting the muzzle angle slightly, and after loading gunpowder and iron bullets, the cannon can be fired again. It works well and is very good.

It is also for this reason that the artillery positions of the Qi army must be strictly built, and they must not be sloppy at all.

The earth collapsed and the trees cracked, and the Vietnamese barracks quickly turned into ruins under the concentrated bombardment of artillery. The thigh-thick logs of the castle did not do anything at all, let alone the earthen walls. Under the bombardment of the morning, it has become unsightly.

A series of loud noises came, and in the sound of bang, a section of more than a dozen feet of earthen wall in front of the South Vietnamese military camp collapsed in another continuous roar.

If Emperor Lu himself is here, he can see the morale of the South Vietnamese army at this moment, and it is already about to be cleared.

"Kill-" Hu Yanqing raised his head and shouted, and the murderous drums and trumpets behind him had already sounded. Amid the earth-shattering roar, the tidal wave of Qi troops poured into the South Vietnamese military camp where the morale was weakened and the morale of the army was shaken.

In the dilapidated camp on the opposite side, countless South Vietnamese soldiers held back their last courage, and appeared like ants, led by a general wearing armor and holding a single knife and roaring loudly. The South Vietnamese soldiers behind him collided with the Qi army that rushed to the front. The sound of killing shook the sky, and the artillery that had been so powerful before had stopped its anger. For now, the only thing left in this battle is hand-to-hand combat.

Hu Yanqing's martial arts are not bad, even if Hu Yanzhuo is not as good as Hu Yanzhuo on land, but it is not within the reach of ordinary people. Otherwise, Lu Qian would not have asked him to lead the Marine Corps. This person was able to organize the fleet to sail all the way from Fuzhou to northern Hebei, and his organizational power can be seen. It is also a good hand to put it in the naval division and transfer warships to fight.

But Lu Qian understood that the sea boat division he wanted was never a force that could only fight water battles, and the marine corps was necessary.

Nguyen Xiaoqi Wu did not move, and he led another army to be placed behind the South Vietnamese barracks, with the sole purpose of preventing the South Vietnamese troops within him from escaping early. If so, the Living Yama will teach them to be human beings again.

Hu Yanqing shouted and led people to rush straight to kill, fighting with knives and guns in close combat, the marines did not dare to say that they were definitely stronger than the army, but in the face of the South Vietnamese soldiers in front of them, even the most daring Qi soldiers could scream and pounce.

Whether it was the successive battles of the Qi army when they entered South Vietnam, or the performance of the South Vietnamese soldiers, the Qi army despised them to the core. Now that the fight is fighting, will anyone still be afraid of the people they have always despised?

Press how the rotten soldiers in South Vietnam were beaten by the Qi army and couldn't take care of themselves, just look at Lu Qian here, when he got the South Vietnam war report, a month had passed.

From Jiaozhou to Qilu, it is really about to cross the Central Plains. At the beginning of September, Qilu has entered late autumn, and the winter slaughter has arrived.

There was also news from the north that Zhongjing Dao had been captured by the Jurchens, Jinzhou City had also been taken, and Guo Yaoshi almost lost his life in the breakout battle. But none of this is as bad news as the Jurchens marched into Nanjing.
