Three months passed in a blink of an eye. As the day of the expedition was getting closer and closer, all the officers and men of the expeditionary force were all gearing up and screaming one by one after the training.

"Holy Lord, good news, Guo Kui led the Qinzhou army to defeat the Jiaozhi Gaoping army and beheaded 30,000." Li Xiang'an found Zhao Xu, who was burning wormwood to drive away mosquitoes.

After Guo Kui received 20 13-tip guns allocated by the Ministry of War, he decided to break the deadlock, bombarded the camp on the opposite bank, and built a pontoon bridge to cross the river overnight to storm Gaoping. There were 100,000 defenders of Gaoping in Jiaozhi, but most of them were newly recruited soldiers in Jiaozhi in order to deal with the invasion of the Five Route Army led by the Song Dynasty, and their combat strength was too weak. Guo Kui won three games in a row, broke through Gaoping, beheaded 30,000, killed Prince Li Chaohongzhen, and captured Zuo Lang General Ruan Gen alive, beating the Jiaozhi people to fear.

Originally, the total strength of the whole country was only 80,000, and in order to cope with this war of annihilation, another 300,000 troops were conscripted. Almost all the men in Jiaozhi have become soldiers, and the tax has increased tenfold. Fortunately, the people of Jiaozhi have the same hatred for the enemy, otherwise, under the boiling of public resentment, before the war, Jiaozhi will lie down.

"Holy One, it's ready. You're ready to go! The expeditionary force pacified Xiao Yiyuan and walked quickly, and he said directly before he saw the salute.

"Good. Let's go. Zhao Ji ordered.

"Ahh The sun is setting. Let's not wait for tomorrow! Ten thousand soldiers of Qiongzhou Zhizhou have prepared a departure ceremony. Xiao Yiyuan was very surprised, but he didn't expect Zhao Ji to send troops when he said that he would send troops.

"See for yourself." Zhao Ji had just handed Xiao Yiyuan the military report of the results from Li Xiang'an's hand.

"Great! The last general commanded. Xiao Yiyuan finished reading the military report, shouted happily, and then said.

·········

At sunset, the expeditionary force, which could not wait for the departure ceremony, received the order to set off immediately, and the army quickly gathered at the military port east of Haikou. The big war is finally about to begin!

By the time the 10,000 soldiers of Qiongzhou Zhizhou learned the news that the expeditionary force had set off overnight, and led hundreds of civil and military officials and ordinary people to march for the soldiers of the expeditionary force, the fleet had already left.

The expeditionary force walked very quietly, and the busy port of Haikou did not even notice it. Merchants who arrived with the expeditionary force began to invest in the construction of this seaport, which was full of construction sites and busy figures. The arrival of merchants made Qiongzhou a lot more prosperous. This will be the rear base of the expeditionary force, and all the grain and grass goods supporting the expeditionary force will be hoarded here.

Qiongzhou City. A mansion.

"Master, the expeditionary force has set off." A middle-aged businessman hurried into the study.

"Oh, overnight? Champa King Khali agreed to our terms? Xia Yanbin asked.

"No news yet." The middle-aged businessman looked depressed.

The former king of Zhancheng was defeated and killed, and Xia Yanbin didn't know if Zhancheng would fulfill his promise to him. Anxious, he hurriedly contacted the new king of Zhancheng, Ha Li, hoping that Zhancheng could continue to fulfill the agreement with the Great Song Dynasty.

"Steward He, there's news." A strong man ran into the study.

"Show me." Xia Yanbin didn't wait for Steward He to tell him, and hurriedly grabbed the letter and quickly browsed it.

"Steward Ho, get ready. We're going to go, too. Xia Yanbin said happily.

Xia Yanbin is so happy, this time, he is going to make a lot of money. It turned out that Xia Yanbin contacted Ha Li and said that he would sell a full set of weapons and armor to at least 50,000 troops in Zhancheng, but on the condition that Ha Li must raise troops to fight back against Jiaozhi, and he must also agree to make him a national businessman. He ignored it at the time, because he now had less than 7,000 men in his hands, and his weapons were outdated. The entire Champa state was under the control of the Jiaozhi army, and it was impossible for him to move.

It wasn't until half a month ago that the news of the Song army's victory came from the north of Jiaozhi, and Heli received an order from Li Changjie to take his 7,000 men to the north with the 50,000 army of Jiaozhi. If it really goes north, then Champa will really be completely destroyed. He hurriedly fled with his seven thousand men to Bintonglong. The war in the north is getting tighter, and Jiaozhi can't take care of the people of the city.

The sea shimmered in the moonlight, and the expeditionary fleet moved slowly.

Three days later, the expeditionary fleet appeared on the route of the Maritime Silk Road on the east coast of Cochin. Because of the war, no merchant ships passed through here anymore. At this moment, it is another moonlit and calm night. A heavy fog had fallen on the sea, which shrouded the expeditionary fleet in the fog.

In the dragon boat cabin, the lights were bright, and Zhao Ji sat around with more than 20 expeditionary generals. In the middle, a merchant stood and bowed down to Zhao Ji and said, "This is a detailed map of Indra Bura, the old capital of Champang, this is the map of Vijaya in Xinju, and this is the map of Thang Long Province. ”

"Well, it's hard work. You go down first! Zhao Ji said to the Iron Arm soldier who was pretending to be a businessman.

Li Xiang'an spread out the three maps, and the generals came over one after another. Zhao Ji looked down at the three maps. I saw that the terrain and troop deployment of various places were marked quite clearly, and many places also specifically indicated the local official offices or the garrisons of Jiaozhi soldiers and horses. Everyone looked down and found that the coastal defense of Cochin was still in place, and it was not so simple to capture Thang Long.

Looking at the old state of Indra, Zhao quickly discovered that it was the location of the ancient city of Hoi An in later Vietnam. There is a place called Dazhanhaikou, although it is a deep-water port, it is in the middle of an inland river, and the wharf goes deep into the inland area of the river to make up for miles. It is not at all directly on the sea like other seaports, and Hoi An Town is just north of the pier, and it is attached to the pier to become a town with a land river on its back.

The old state town is still north of Hoi An Town, in a mountainous plain. If you want to capture the old state city, you must first capture the town of Hoi An. In order to capture Hoi An Town, it is necessary to break into the river and then capture it from the front pier.

In this way, the suddenness of the actions of the expeditionary force was reduced. In addition, the river is too narrow, once the warship breaks through, it is easy to be cut off by the Jiaozhi people, and the dragon will run aground.

The area around the old state city is also a place where the Jiaozhi people can camp their troops, and if they can't quickly capture the old state, the 20,000 people of the expeditionary force will be blocked in the inland river. Having fallen into the encirclement, it is difficult to imagine the end of the expeditionary force. Moreover, there is also a 3,000-strong Jiaozhi water division in the inland river. This coastal defense is simply seamless.

"There are famous generals in Jiaozhi!" Xiao Yiyuan sighed after reading the map.

It turned out that all the generals felt that the expeditionary force was so powerful, and it was not a matter of taking a small barbarian town to be captured. didn't expect that there would be such a famous player in the little Jiaozhi. It seems that Jiaozhi can dominate the South Seas, and it is not in vain that it is not in vain to fight Zhancheng and Zhenla to raise his head.

"It seems that this place cannot be captured from the sea at all. I can only fight the new state of Vijaya! Zhao Ji pointed to the map of Xinzhou and said.

The attack on Vijaya New State was originally a strategy formulated by Xiao Yiyuan, intended to break the stalemate in the war. Unexpectedly, the stalemate of the war had been broken by Guo Kuijun. Therefore, there is a plan to choose one of the three in Thang Long Province, Old State, and New State.

When the generals heard Zhao Ji's decision, they all focused their eyes on the map of Vijaya New State.

Vijaya New State was Quy Nhon, the capital of Binh Dinh Province in later Vietnam. It is a city built facing the sea, and there is a port town called Tulun outside the city.

After some deliberation by everyone, a complete battle plan was gradually formed. So coach Xiao Yiyuan straightened up and stood up straight. When everyone saw Xiao Yiyuan get up, they immediately stood in two rows on the left and right, waiting for his dispatch. And Zhao Ji sat down again, drinking tea while watching Xiao Yiyuan dispatch troops.

Xiao Yiyuan secretly glanced at Zhao Ji, and saw that Zhao Ji's eyes were full of trust, and he couldn't help but be angry. Thinking that he failed in the imperial examination, he became a water thief in desperation. I didn't expect that being a water thief could also become a king of China. But the king didn't serve for a few days, and he encountered the conquest of the Great Song Dynasty sailors. I thought I was at the end of the road, but I didn't expect to be recruited by the Great Song Dynasty. After recruiting An, he thought that he would be given a knighthood and the original group of old brothers, and ate and drank in Bianjing and waited for death. But now I'm standing here!

Xiao Yiyuan reviewed the ups and downs of the past, looked at the generals of the expeditionary force standing below, cleared his throat, and ordered: "Bai Bolang obeys the order!" ”

"The last general!" Bai Bolang immediately stood up with excitement on his face.

"Ben Shuai ordered you to lead thirty fighting ships and walkers as the vanguard, and after hearing the sound of artillery, immediately launch a strong attack on the port of Tulun and lay down a landing place. You've sacked Turon, you know how to do it, right? ”

"The last will be ordered!" Bai Bolang immediately took the order and turned around and walked out of the imperial cabin and arranged to go.

"Rindo Lingding, Nerugu listen to orders!"

"The last general!" The two guests will be out of the queue when they hear the sound.

"Once the white wave establishes a landing point, you will be the first to land and go straight to the camp of the Cochin army in the port. With the combat power of your 2,000 cavalry, it should be no problem to destroy a large infantry battalion of only 3,000 people, right? Xiao Yiyuan pointed to the camp on the east side of Tulun Port and arranged.

"The last general commands!" After seeing Zhao Ji's methods, the two became very positive.

"Guo Kai, Niu Zaigao listen to the order!"

"The last general!" The two of them were excited to finally hear their names. I thought that their fire cavalry was Zhao Ji's baby bump, so I didn't need it.

"The first two of you landed, after landing, don't care about anything else, and go straight to Xinzhou City. Before the Cochin Army can react, give me the new state. Xiao Yiyuan pointed to Xinzhou City on the map and said.

"He Qiushui and Tang Kang listen to orders."

"The last general!" The two couldn't wait.

"Twenty ships and twenty seagulls, set out at once, and be sure to block the sailors of Cochin in their water village. Don't be afraid to waste rockets, burn them to the ground. Xiao Yiyuan pointed to a water village and said.

"The other generals will follow with the headquarters. This battle will be won! Xiao Yiyuan raised his right arm and said loudly.

After the generals withdrew from the imperial cabin, Zhao Ji explained to Li Xiang'an: "You send a few iron guards to pass on my will to the king of Zhancheng, and ask him to immediately send troops north to meet the army." Don't forget, if he still wants to recover the entire territory of the city of Zhancheng, let him transport all the gold and gems of Bin Tong Long. ”

"Yes." Li Xiangan knew that Zhao Ji was about to go crazy thinking about money, and he had to know that he owed a lot of debt on this expedition.

"The fire cavalry quickly attacked Xinzhou, and without heavy weapons, I am afraid that Xinzhou will not be attacked. The Iron Guards must prepare and open the gates for the fire cavalry. Zhao Ji commanded again.

"Holy Lord, rest assured. The Iron Arm Guard has contacted a group of Cham people. You can't make a mistake about this. Li Xiangan replied.

When Li Xiang'an came out of the imperial cabin, Xiao Yiyuan slipped in again and said, "Holy Lord, Xia Yanbin's caravan will arrive tomorrow morning." ”

"Good. After conquering New State, don't take prisoners, kill them all. All the Cham and all the seizures in the city were transported away as soon as possible. Do you understand? Zhao Ji took a sip of tea and said lightly.

"Understood." Xiao Yiyuan knew that population was also wealth, and Zhao Ji was going to transport the people here to Liuqiu to be mine slaves.
