Chapter 487: Troops Raised Again

The reason why the southern tip of Qinzhou was chosen as the starting point for the infantry attack on the Da Yue Kingdom was because of the convenient conditions of naval support, the convenience of supply by transport ships, and the possibility of camping on the seaside in case of emergencies.

Here in the south of the 100,000 mountains mountain range, the terrain is high in the north and low in the south, crossing the Beilun River whose source is not wide in the 100,000 mountains can march to Jiaozhi, although the mountains are undulating here, the coastal territory is relatively gentle, and the cavalry can do it.

In later generations, Vietnam's highways connecting Mong Cai, Ho Hi, Thien An, Kam Phu, Ha Long, Quang An and Hai Phong were also along the coastline.

Hoang Minh Dao and Hoang Dong Son would lead the main force to penetrate the border wall of the previous confrontation between North and South Vietnam from the sea, and directly use the stone side wall built by Quang Nam to build a huge city, cutting off the return route of the Zheng army of North Vietnam.

The border wall built by Nguyen Phuc Yuan, the ruler of Quang Nam, cut the narrow stretch of Vietnamese territory into two sections. This broken city wall is located in the south of the Linghe River, from the sea to the mountains, and stretched for more than 20 miles when it was finally completed.

Huang Dongshan and Huang Mingli's task was to land on the side of Guangnan Kingdom close to the side wall here, and then expand the soil to the south for five or six miles, that is, to occupy dozens of square kilometers of land in Guangnan Kingdom to build a city very unceremoniously, Huang Sheng even thought of the name, "New Suzhou".

The side wall built by the Huang family goes directly to the foot of Cologne Mountain from the sea, the length is also more than 20 miles, and the two side walls are six or seven miles apart, forming a rectangular city.

After Huang Mingdao completed assisting Huang Dongshan's army to gain a foothold, he left two men and horses to Cheng Quangong to defend the city.

Huang Dongshan led most of the men and horses to attack and advance from the south to the north, and the destination was the capital of the Li Dynasty, and Huang Mingdao took a part of the men and horses to log in again, this time choosing the coast closest to the Dayue Kingdom.

This is probably the city of Haiphong in Vietnam in later generations, and the Ming Dynasty did not have the city of Haiphong. Now it's just a fishing village, and it's not called Haiphong.

Huang Mingdao still seized the beachhead of Haiphong and built a camp to defend it, and Han Guang and Ye Jiangong led their men and horses directly into the "Tokyo" city of Dayue Kingdom, which was Hanoi in later generations.

Huang Sheng's army naturally came from the north, and 5,000 cavalry surrounded and intercepted to ensure that the escape route of the princes and nobles of "Tokyo" city was blocked.

The city of "Tokyo" was founded in 621 A.D., as the governor of Jiaozhou in the Tang Dynasty of China, and later as Songping County under the jurisdiction of the Protectorate of Annam.

Ming Chengzu Yongle five years, expelled the Ming Dynasty of Meng Yuan to restore the homeland of Annan, set up the Jiaozhi political envoy, as the capital, called Jiaozhou Mansion, Dongguan County is the modern Hanoi as its capital city, but unfortunately after a few decades of gain and loss, now the Han people have lost this homeland has been a full two hundred years.

The city of "Tokyo" in the country of Dayue is very large, with a circumference of 50 li, and is divided into two parts: the inner city and the outer city, and the inner city is divided into three parts: the forbidden city, the imperial city and the capital.

The place where the king, the concubine and his descendants and attendants of the Dayue Kingdom lived was called the forbidden city, and the imperial city was surrounded by the imperial city, which was the location of the courtiers' offices.

Outside the Imperial City, the neighborhoods, markets, and residential areas are the capital. The imperial garden garden in the imperial city, the scenery is beautiful, the buildings and palaces in the forbidden city are splendid, the pagoda in the capital is towering, and the temples are numerous.

Taking down such a city that consumed a lot of time, how much financial and manpower, and how interesting it was to have been expanded countless times, I would drool when I thought about it.

Dayue uses the same calendar as Daming, and like the Chinese, it also celebrates Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Zhongyuan Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Chongyang Festival, Spring Festival, etc. Chinese New Year is also the biggest festival of the year.

Many foods in Dayue are the same as those of the Han people, such as rice dumplings, fried spring rolls, and so on.

Many surnames such as Ruan, Li, Zheng, Hu, Fan, Chen, Wu, etc. are no different from the Han people, and the first name is also the first surname and the last name, and the same two-character or three-character name is used, so it is imperative for a large number of Sinicized Dayue Jing people to return to the Han family.

The first move was to control the border wall built by Quang Nam State, and to hold on to the danger so that the Zheng troops of the Great Yue State who invaded Guangnan could not come back, so that the Zheng army could fight a baseless battle.

At the same time, Huang Sheng took 6,000 Ming army foot cavalry, 3,000 wolf soldiers, 3,000 white pole soldiers, 4,500 Huang family's private soldiers, 4,500 auxiliary soldiers, and 50,000 or 60,000 accompanying army laborers.

Such a large-scale and large-scale attack on the cities of Dayue Kingdom, the whole country will be frightened, and Huang Sheng will slowly knock out the cities along the way one by one, leaving the army and labor to cooperate with a hundred township brave hands to defend it.

Leaving their capital alone and the largest city not to fight, they deliberately passed through Hanoi and crossed this city to continue to attack the small city, so that the Da Yue Kingdom thought that the Ming army only had the ability to attack the small city.

The Great Yue Kingdom thought that there was a strong city and a big city to rely on, so naturally many high-ranking officials and nobles and ordinary people fled to the capital city "Tokyo" for refuge, and Huang Sheng's men and horses tossed for a few months, and the defense of "New Suzhou" should also be completed.

At this time, it was revealed that the Ming army was equipped to encircle and annihilate the military and civilians of "Tokyo", and concentrated all the mobilized troops and manpower to encircle and kill the capital of Da Yue.

Strategic purpose: Let as many soldiers and civilians of the Great Yue Kingdom concentrate in the capital as possible, and strive to capture it in a battle, so as not to have too many living forces flee into the mountains and forests to fight guerrilla attacks to increase the difficulty of encirclement and suppression, and encirclement and annihilation is the best result.

It is necessary to ensure that after this battle, the elite of the Great Viet Kingdom will be completely destroyed and the living force will be completely wiped out.

Then it will slowly digest and consolidate the homeland of Annam, and then more than 800,000 Han people will slowly expand based on the two big cities, of course, the name of "Tokyo", which is the name of the Han era, called "Jiaozhou City", and the territory of the Dayue Kingdom will also restore the old Han name "Jiaozhi".

There is also a big city that is actually on the land of Guangnan, and it is the "New Suzhou" city.

The fleet returned to Huangjiawan Island to transfer population and materials, and Huang Mingli didn't go back because he had too many things, so he sent a reliable and steady Cheng Quangong to take Ma Cheng, Guan Zhicheng and other excellent battleship captains to the north.

This time, 30,000 high-ranking villagers will be selected to serve in the South China Sea, and these people are not dragging their families with them, but are completely on a mission to strengthen combat effectiveness and management.

Because the navigation technology of the Huang family has been integrated with the headwind navigation technology of the Dutch coachman at sea, there is no need to wait for the monsoon to come, and it can sail all year round.

The so-called sailing against the wind adopts the "Bernoulli principle", the sail and the wind direction maintain a small angle, the cross-section looks like the sail is blown out like the arc of the wing, the air flow will produce thrust, as long as the sail always maintains the corresponding angle against the wind, you can go "zigzag" to move against the wind.

But sailing upwind is much slower than downwind, not because the speed of the sailboat has decreased, but sometimes the speed of the ship is much faster.

This is due to the fact that the distance in a straight line to the destination is three or even five times longer due to the large zigzag, so that the speed of the trip may not be even two knots in the upwind sailing.

Now the merchant ships of the Huang family can reach an average speed of seven knots in the case of a tailwind, the warships can reach eight or nine knots, and the cruisers can exceed ten knots.

The Huang family's fleet went north at the end of August, and the probability of encountering a north wind was too high, and the speed would be affected, but the Huang family had a unique propeller technology and refused to go in a zigzag shape in a completely headwind situation.

Only choose to take a small zigzag pattern in the case of a northerly wind, use the wind force of a small headwind to sail north, and take a complete sail off in a large headwind state, and use manpower to drive the propeller forward.

Therefore, on average, each warship and merchant ship heading north brought a large family of Li leaders and Ming officials and gentry who had been cleaned from Hainan Island and prepared to be sent to Huangjiawan Island and "Huaxia Island" for labor reform or residential surveillance.

There are several large tens of laborers on each ship, and the sailors, gunners, and auxiliaries on the ship lead them in three shifts to drive the propellers by manpower, and the speed of the ships is guaranteed to exceed three knots, and because the routes are extremely familiar, and hundreds of ships sail in formation, day and night are not obstacles.
