Chapter 389: Smoke and Waves (Part II)

I didn't expect this Shi Xuan to speak Chinese fluently, and it didn't matter if it was far-fetched or not, and he used a lot of idioms, which surprised Ye Yingwu, but it was not unexpected, after all, Bo Ni is a necessary place for Nanyang trade routes, and it is normal for people here to speak Chinese.

"The messenger of Zhenla, you say?" Ye Yingwu asked in a deep voice.

Shi Xuan nodded anxiously: "Yes, it is the envoy from Zhenla, who came two or three months ago, and has been instigating his father to go against Da Ming, and the last time he offended Da Mingwei, it was also because of these envoys from Zhenla who were behind their backs, and ยทยทยทยทยทยท And they seem to be very good at making equipment, and the trebuchet that the country has designed and built according to their design is much more powerful than the original trebuchet. โ€

"Good at making instruments?" Ye Yingwu repeated it with some suspicion, and then said lightly, "Shi crossbow, do you know that bullying the king is a big crime of killing the head?" Zhenla has been surrounded by the two main forces of my Ming Dynasty, as long as I give an order, I can break Zhenla and make it extinct and extinct the country, where does this Zhenla come from here?! โ€

Slightly stunned, Shi Xuan hurriedly kowtowed again and again: "Your Majesty, you have wronged the villain, this messenger is from Zhenla, it is true, the villain's father is also obedient to them, but the villain sees a lot of clues on weekdays, these people are not common Zhenla people at all, but some are like Westerners who meet when doing business." โ€

Ye Yingwu suddenly patted the railing: "Okay, what a Westerner!" โ€

Zhang Gui looked at Ye Yingwu with some surprise: "Your Highness, this Westerner?" โ€

"I didn't expect the Ilkhanate to really intervene, and it was very deep." Ye Yingwu said coldly, "This Westerner is good at making instruments, isn't it the group of Huihui from the Ilkhanate, I originally thought that Kublai Khan would use them to improve trebuchets and fight with a certain male, but I didn't expect to meet them in this place now." Perhaps, Shi Crossbow, are you here to surrender on behalf of Bo Ni? โ€

Shi Xuan hurriedly nodded: "Bo Ni whole country, waiting for Your Majesty, as long as Your Majesty does not dislike it, from now on, Bo Ni is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the people of Bo Ni are also His Majesty's people." โ€

Glancing at Shi Xuan with interest, Ye Yingwu said lightly: "It's a pity that I am interested in the land of Bo Ni, not the people of Bo Ni, do you understand?" โ€

After being silent for a moment, Shi Xuan trembled and raised his head to look at Ye Yingwu, and then lowered his head with determination, and said in a deep voice: "This mud belongs to Your Majesty, whether Your Majesty wants land or people, it depends on Your Majesty's wishes, the villain only wants to be able to save his life, and please fulfill Your Majesty." โ€

Shrugging his shoulders, Ye Yingwu didn't look at him more, but took the clairvoyance in Zhang Gui's hand and looked into the distance: "Feel free to do it, anyway, Chen Huang, who is now in Nanjing, is also very boring, it is better for you to accompany him, and you can still guarantee the rest of your life, but this is the only thing that can be guaranteed." โ€

Subconsciously shuddered, Shi Xuan didn't care about the schadenfreude or disgusted gazes of the soldiers around him, but just knocked his head down: "Thank you for the grace of Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty." โ€

Ye Yingwu didn't say a word, just looked carefully at the battlefield that was gradually calming down in front of him: "Okay, maybe the choice you made is right, after all, your people don't have the ability to support it at this time, there is always someone who wants to stand up and lead them to surrender." Zhang Gui! โ€

"The last general!" Zhang Gui hurriedly bowed his hand.

"Tell the brethren to take control of this vital point at once, and to garrison the islands on both sides." Ye Yingwu ordered loudly, "The left wing of this battle fought very well, and there were many awards, so the left wing, the middle army and the rear wing continued to go south with me, and I handed over all the islands here and the north to the right wing, if the right wing can't make some noise, then it's no wonder that my subordinates are ruthless." โ€

Zhang Gui responded.

And Ye Yingwu put down the clairvoyance in his hand and exhaled a long breath.

This battle, after all, did not fight, but at least achieved the goal he wanted.

The mud fell, and the gate of the South Seas was completely opened to the Ming Dynasty.

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”

Although Nanyang is located on the main road between the Ming Dynasty and the West, and some specialties of the Nanyang itself are also favored by the Ming merchants, but in most cases, these merchant ships are passing by, which does not have much impact on the economy and culture of the Nanyang.

So that the town presented in front of Li Fu and Yang Ting, and the villages in the Central Plains are not much different, the hastily built up earthen walls, coupled with the gate that can vaguely be seen, is a city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack in the eyes of Nanyang people.

If two more ditches are dug in front of the city gate, Li Fu doubts that these city occupants will shout that the city is too strong.

However, looking at the various blades in the hands of these Cham people, Li Fu can also be relieved, after all, it is indeed not easy for people to attack such a village with such a rudimentary weapon.

"The news from the sea that Bo Ni has surrendered, and the fleet of the sailors of Japo is surrounded by us, and it is estimated that the surrender will be a matter of a day or two." Yang Ting stood beside Li Fu and looked at the village in front of him that was still filled with gunsmoke, "According to His Highness's meaning, he is finally going to make a move on Zhenla?" โ€

Li Fu snorted: "I caught the messenger of Zhenla from Bo Ni, and it was really the Mongolian Tartar who was making trouble behind his back, this time I understood why Zhenla would stalk his neck and do it against us, after all, there is a backer behind the backing is full, and the Mongolian Tartar also wants to use Zhenla to drag us in the huge quagmire of the South Seas, so that Daming can't spare the energy to deal with the north." โ€

"Since we went south in July, we have been delayed from this South Sea for three months, and the Mongolian Tatars are really scheming." Yang Ting frowned and said, although three months is not a long time, it is enough for Mongolia to deploy troops in the north and even prepare for an attack.

Waving his hand, Li Fu said in a deep voice: "Lao Yang, you can't just see the surface. Three months seems to be our delay in this South Seas, in vain to give the Mongolian Tartars to recuperate, but in fact it is not the case, before these three months, the Ming Dynasty has just begun to manufacture, and the two Huai Army, the Jinghu Army has only completed the reorganization, and did not follow the Ming Dynasty's consistent training method for training, these three months in the Ming Dynasty is not nothing, and even through the advantage of firearms in the gap with the Mongolian Tartars, when Kublai Khan reacts, I am afraid it will be too late. โ€

Yang Ting scratched his head: "Well, in the end, you literati think clearly, Your Highness has great powers, and you will definitely not be so cheap Mongolian Tatars, as long as you Li Shuzhang and His Highness say where to fight, you will take your brothers to fight somewhere!" โ€

Li Fu sighed a little helplessly: "You, but the heart is wide, in the future, the Ming Dynasty will conquer and pacify the Quartet, sooner or later we will continue to expand the army, one day Lao Yang you need to lead an army to open up territory for the Ming Dynasty, and then you will listen to whom!"

Hehe smiled, Yang Ting didn't say much, stretched out his hand and pointed to the village in front: "Conquer this village, and the land that belongs to Zhenla will be forward." โ€

"What's the matter, the dignified Yang Ting and Yang Yuhou are also scared?" Li Fu glanced at him obliquely.

Yang Ting sneered: "A certain battle, I don't know how to write the word 'afraid'!" โ€

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”-

Ships slowly approached the docks.

Standing on the dock, Shi Xuan looked at the shadow of the sail covering the sky and the sun on the sea, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, he still made the most correct choice after all.

If you don't surrender, then after the Daming Naval Division breaks through the strait, won't the entire Bomud Coast become the object of the Daming Naval Division's casual ravage? With the ability of Bo Ni and Japo Sailors, they didn't stop twenty warships last time, not to mention the two or three hundred warships in front of him?

What his confused father said was retreating into the mountains to hold on, using the dense forest to deal with the enemy, until the other party was under pressure from Mongolia in the north and had to retreat, Shi Xuan felt ridiculous when he thought about it, and he was dealing with the enemy, why? Just by virtue of Bo Ni, a village that is not even a city, or with the little wealth that the Ming Dynasty can't look down on at all?

In front of the powerful firearms of the Ming Dynasty, Shi Xuan himself has no confidence in defeating the Ming Dynasty, let alone those ordinary people who have not seen the world.

Of course, even now, Shi Xuan's posture of the flying thunder cannon lifting all the trees and the smoke and dust on the entire island can't help but shudder.

"Rebel, you are really a rebel!" The white-haired Lord of the Bo Ni Kingdom next to him muttered, "How come the old man has such a rebel as you!" โ€

Shi Xuan turned his head in slight surprise, although the Lord of the Bo Ni Country was still wearing a robe that could barely be called gorgeous, but his white hair and gray hair were not tidied up, and the wrinkles on his face made the old man look very haggard, and his hands trembled slightly, and his cloudy eyes stared at Shi Xuan.

However, the old man did not move, and the two henchmen of Shi Crossbow standing behind him were holding the dagger in their hands against the back of the Lord of the Bo Ni Kingdom, as long as he made any rash moves or did not obey Shi Crossbow's orders, the two of them would not hesitate to stab the knife down.

"Am I a rebel?" Shi Xuan's expression was a little distorted, and he looked at his father, "You are an old immortal, and you dare to call me a rebel!" I surrendered to the Ming Dynasty with Bo Ni, just to save your life and mine, and to save the lives of the people here! Loyalty to the country, filial piety to you, how to rebel! โ€

The old lord kept trembling, but he couldn't say a word.

And Shi Xuan walked straight over and grabbed the placket of the old lord's clothes: "But you look at yourself, huh?" Who is the Ming Dynasty, the Heavenly Empire, the power of the Heavenly Empire, you yourself have not seen it, don't think that you have the ability to defeat the Celestial Empire after a victory, what is even more terrifying is that you still listen to a few Zhenla envoys from the floating sea, even if these Zhenla envoys have great ability, he Zhenla has been unable to protect himself, how can we really help us defeat the Ming Dynasty and challenge the Celestial Empire?! โ€

Seeing that the old lord was speechless for a while, Shi Xuan mercilessly spatted on his face: "Arrogance, misleading the country and harming the people, I killed thousands of people in the two battles, are you responsible for these lives?" The Daming Navy Division broke through the front strait and rushed here, there will be no more obstacles, do you want to watch the whole country fall into the flames of war like this?! Faint! โ€

"You!" The old lord of the country held Shi Xuan's wrist and struggled desperately, but after all, he was old, how could he be the opponent of a young man like Shi Xuan, he could only writhe in vain, "You gave the entire Bo mud directly to Da Ming, didn't you sell this country completely?!" This is the Bo mud that has been passed down from generation to generation, and it is the Bo mud that should be independent of the Heavenly Empire, and you ยทยทยทยทยทยท it."

"But what can I do!" Shi Xuan threw the old lord on the chair heavily, "What do you think I can do?!" Now that the entire Bo Ni has no strength to fight, and it is you, a foolish old immortal, who provoked Da Ming, don't you know the fate of Annan? The royal family was escorted north, and the people were burned and looted as slaves, if I hadn't stood up and surrendered, if I hadn't handed over the entire Bomud to Daming, you know what would have happened to us, and you knew what would have happened to so many people? ! โ€

The old lord stood up slowly, and just wanted to say something, but the sunlight was completely blocked.

Several figures strode up to the left and right in front of him, looking at the Lord of the Bo Ni Country with great interest.

"Barbarian monkeys are low, and it's true, you see their kings are like that." Jiang Tie sighed.

Wu Chucai said lightly: "Don't talk nonsense, this is the Lord of the Bo Ni Country?" โ€

The old lord raised his head to look at the two people, and subconsciously took a step back.

The weather in Nanyang is hot all year round, although it is September, it is not much different from the summer in the north, so Wu Chucai and Jiang Tie are just a layer of cloth clothes, revealing tanned arms, muscles bulging one by one, two hands pressing the saber, with killing intent in their eyes, exposing the essence of killing embryos.

Although he kept shouting to fight with the Ming Dynasty to the end, although he was still glorious in death, but when he really saw the overwhelming sailors of the Ming Dynasty today, and saw these Ming soldiers who were like fierce gods, the old lord had already begun to retreat in his heart, but he was still insisting on saying that he could not admit it in front of his son.

However, when Jiang Tie and Wu Chucai stood in front of him, they looked like they were going to kill if they didn't agree with each other, so that the old lord of the country completely understood that he was facing the threat of death.

This sweaty old man, who was still arguing with his son just now, unexpectedly slowly knelt on the ground, picked up the jade seal placed on the table in his hand, and respectfully raised it above his head, with an unconcealable horror in his voice:

"The lord of the Boni Kingdom, present the jade album and jade seal given by the previous dynasty, and also hope that the generals of the Heavenly Dynasty will laugh and be entrusted."

Wu Chucai and Jiang Tie were both taken aback, so ยทยทยทยทยทยท Just hand it over?

Even Shi Xuan, who was about to do it, was stunned.

The backbone of his father seemed to have disappeared at this moment, and he looked at the two Han people who were close at hand, only fearful and helpless looks, and muttered pleading.

Standing on the building of the big sea ship not far away, Ye Yingwu looked at the scene on the dock with great interest. And Zhang Gui beside him couldn't help but shake his head: "I originally thought that this Bo Ni Country Lord could still have a little backbone, so that we could kill him justifiably." โ€

"Throughout the ages, these monarchs who inherited from their ancestors are really bloody, in the final analysis, they are just some delicate children who grew up in the deep palace and were cared for in every way, even if they shouted loudly before, it was just to deceive and deceive the people." A crisp female voice sounded, and Zhao Yunshu walked to Ye Yingwu's side in an ordinary moon blue brocade dress.

Zhang Gui hurriedly bowed his hand solemnly: "The last general will see the princess." โ€

Zhao Yunshu smiled, then looked at Ye Yingwu: "Isn't the husband going to go down?" The time at sea is not short, and it is good to go down and move your muscles. โ€

Without answering this question, Ye Yingwu directly instructed Zhang Gui: "Although Bo Ni surrendered, but just in case, let the Lord of Bo Ni send people with naval warships to quickly control all the key points in the country, especially several choke points that communicate with the Ming Dynasty, the South Seas and the Western Ocean, and the fleet of the Japo Naval Division has surrendered, it's time for them to go back to Japo, and send an elite fleet to follow, the generals of the Japo Naval Division also want to replace the lord of the country." โ€

Zhang Gui was stunned: "Your Highness doesn't plan to annex Japo?" โ€

"The huge Nanyang, if you want to annex it all, where is it so easy, what I want is these choke points in the Nanyang, as well as the rich land and even minerals of the Nanyang. Of course, although these Nanyang barbarian monkeys are short, they are better than a lot of them after all, and these barbarian monkeys are levied to build cities and passes everywhere for my Ming Dynasty. Ye Yingwu said lightly, "As for who to levy and how to levy it, I will issue a holy decree to you, and Aiqing only needs to do things according to the decree." (To be continued.) )
