Manila at sunset, full of vicissitudes of life, this small capital of a small country that has been established for only a hundred years, but can not withstand the invasion of wind and rain, a small storm, it completely destroyed this small capital and the small country behind him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.infoqВ5. \

At the beginning of November 1o36 AD, the four gates of Manila were opened, and the 10,000 navy led by Zhao Lei and the 40,000 expeditionary force led by An Jun and Fan Zhongyan entered the port city in a neat formation in the numb eyes of the people of Manila.

Zhao Lei walked on the streets of Manila under the protection of many guards, the smile on his face was very satisfied, with 30 shells, the life of a minister of state, plus the threat of 40,000 people to force a king to surrender, if this kind of merit is not satisfied, Zhao Lei is very doubtful that he will be struck by lightning.

Thinking about the situation of the day, Zhao Lei wanted to laugh, he really didn't expect that the king of Ma Yi and many ministers actually rushed to the west city of Manila to observe the military appearance of the Great Song army, and was surrounded by the Shenwu artillery of the Great Song army, thirty solid cannonballs passed, King Ma Yi was directly stunned, and more than a dozen Ma Yi civil and military officials, including Ma Yi's Minister of State Dora, were directly killed or injured by the cannonballs, the most wonderful thing is that this incident was born less than an hour, An Jun and Fan Zhongyan led 40,000 horses to Manila, Under the siege of 60,000 elites of the Great Song Dynasty, King Mayi, who came to his senses, chose to surrender with great interest.

In the royal palace of Manila, there was a lot of chaos, the Great Song army was busy receiving everything in the palace, and the former owner of the palace was facing the people of the kingdom without face. With his family and wealth in advance, under the escort of the Great Song naval fleet, he went to Bianjing of the Great Song Dynasty and officially surrendered to the Great Song Emperor Zhao Zhen.

The pure gold king's chair above the main hall of the Manila royal palace has been removed, and this kind of thing is of no use at all to stay here, who would dare to sit on this kind of chair. In addition to paying tribute to the official Zhao Zhen, staying here is just to see things.

In the palace hall, Zhao Lei sat casually on a chair in front of the main hall, and in front of him were the generals of the Great Song Dynasty Navy and the generals of the expeditionary force.

"General An and Lord Fan defeated the reinforcements of Manila, captured Jamabi, and supported the navy in time to attack Manila, and finally forced King Ma Yi to surrender. Congratulations to the generals. Zhao Lei looked around at the generals in the hall, looked at their faces with happy expressions, and said to them with a smile.

"There! It was all Lord Zhao's strategy, there was no plan of Lord Zhao, and there was no Lord Zhao to defeat the Ma Yi Navy. Without Lord Zhao sending us to Luzon, our expeditionary force would have been able to accomplish such a great achievement! "An Jun didn't dare to be as arrogant as Fan Zhongyan in the face of Zhao Lei, after all, Zhao Lei was a red minister in the eyes of the official Zhao Zhen, holding the two major armies of the navy and the new army, which was simply half the sky. An Jun dared to be presumptuous in front of Zhao Lei, so he could only say to Zhao Lei very modestly.

"All the generals are the first to take the lead, and the officers know the matter of bravely killing the enemy. Meritorious service will chill the soldiers' heart to serve the country, and when all the other cities in Mayi Kingdom surrender, the official guarantees that all the soldiers on this expedition can be promoted to the next level! The soldiers were rewarded with at least ten taels of silver, not to mention the generals. An Jun was modest, but Zhao Lei couldn't be stingy, and generously said the reward method he had thought of.

"If the generals want, you can give these rewards now, we have just taken over the Mayi treasury. In addition to being hemp. The gold, silver and jewels that King Yi took away, there are about three million taels of gold and eight hundred thousand taels of silver in the palace of Manila, as well as a large number of Great Song Qian Mo and stored bronze, which is enough to reward the soldiers, and there should be a lot of gold and silver in the treasury of the city of Rijama! Your Excellency is solely responsible for this expedition, and of course this little thing can be achieved in advance! Su Xun continued with Zhao Lei's words at this time.

"How is it that there is so much gold and so little silver?" When Han Qi, the general of the new army, heard Su Xun's words, he immediately asked suspiciously.

"Mayi is rich in gold and bronze, but there are no silver mines, and most of this silver is traded from the Great Song Dynasty or Srivijaya." Zhao Lei heard Han Qi's question and replied lightly.

"The reward can be talked about later, what the soldiers are most concerned about now is when they can return to the Great Song Dynasty after Ma Yi surrenders?" Cao Jun, the general under An Jun, asked loudly in a rough voice at this time, this question is probably the most acute question now, the expeditionary force has left Bianjing in June, and now it has been out for five months, many soldiers have begun to miss their hometown, and now that Ma Yi has surrendered, the Great Song army will soon occupy the entire Ma Yi, and then there will definitely be someone left to guard Ma Yi, and all the Great Song soldiers do not want to stay in this small country far from the Great Song Dynasty.

Hearing Cao Jun's question, Zhao Lei was silent, he knew very well the fate of these expeditionary forces, the new army this time is a pure training, training the combat effectiveness of the new army on the battlefield, and as the official Zhao Zhen's most trusted Qiandi general An Jun led the right Qianniu army, will become Ma Yi's guardian legion, unless Ma Yi is occupied by other countries, it is impossible to return to Bianjing in this life, and all the soldiers and family members will also follow the sea ships of the Great Song Dynasty to Ma Yi, the first colony of the Great Song Dynasty, to protect the territory of this island country for the Great Song Dynasty generations.

The speechless Zhao Lei made all the generals of the Right Qianniu Army feel a pang in their hearts, in fact, the Right Qianniu Army wanted to stay in Ma Yi, in addition to An Jun, now only Zhao Lei, Su Xun and Fan Zhongyan knew that now Ma Yi completely surrendered, it was only a matter of time before he occupied the entire territory of Ma Yi, this problem was exposed in advance, Cao Jun and Lin Ziping began to care, but they were recognized by Zhao Lei wordlessly.

……

In December, the wind and snow are coming, the bare trees are all over the streets and alleys of Bianjing, there is no warmth of Manila, and the pedestrians who come and go are covered with cotton clothes, which looks very bloated.

The Bianjing Imperial Court, which is approaching the end of the year, has also begun to get busy, the summary of the year's work, the changes of the court officials, the rewards of the officials, the sacrifice of heaven and earth, the busiest time of the year, which makes the court a little chaotic, and the things that go wrong in the busy will cause the court officials to blame each other, so the court is even more chaotic, and the hall is also full of gunpowder.

The Huangyi Hall of the Bianjing Imperial Palace has changed greatly, four huge special coal stoves stand in the four corners of the hall, and the special coal furnaces and briquettes of the new army iron case are constantly dissipating heat, turning the Huangyi Palace into a warm spring room, which is incompatible with the cold outside the palace.

The official Zhao Zhen sat lazily on the dragon chair, at the age of twenty-six, he was in his prime, but Zhao Zhen, who was eager to make contributions, was confined to the majestic imperial city, watching the courtiers quarrel over trivial things every day, and now he was a little numb, ignoring the existence of the courtiers Zhao Zhen, and began to lust tonight to find the beauty of the harem to have intimate contact with him.

And His Royal Highness Huangyi, a scene that has often been staged recently is on the air, the new army logistics yamen began to become a wealth boy after Zhao Lei left, Fan Zhongyan was still able to suppress the various yamen officials who came to ask for money when he was in office, but after Fan Zhongyan also led the new army to leave, the third division made Ye Qingchen immediately use the new army logistics yamen as an ATM, and many of the yamen who reached out to the three divisions were supported by Ye Qingchen to the new army logistics yamen, and for most of the year, the new army logistics yamen not only spent all the profits, If it weren't for the official family instructing Ye Qingchen not to go too far, I am afraid that the logistics yamen of the new army has now become a yamen under the name of the third division.

And the thing that has often been popular recently is that several important officials of the imperial court accused each other of excessive spending and embezzling too much public funds from the logistics yamen of the new army for unknown consumption.

Just when the third secretary made Ye Qingchen and the prime minister Zhang Shixun talk about the matter of a few thousand taels of silver, news suddenly came from outside the hall that shocked hundreds of monarchs and ministers in the palace.

"Good news! South China Sea victory! The official family ...... "The attendant in charge of the Xuande Building in the Imperial City panted and ran from the Xuande Building to the Imperial Palace in person, and ran to the side of the official Zhao Zhen with a look of ecstasy, and said intermittently gasping for breath.

South China Sea victory! The official Zhao Zhen's originally drowsy spirit immediately became excited, and he was also surprised to take the good news handed over by the chamberlain, and immediately opened it and looked at it.

"Good! Good! Guangzhou 800 miles of urgent good news, Zhao Aiqing led an army of 85,000, has taken the two largest cities in the country of Mayi, one of which is the capital of Mayi, the king of Mayi has surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty, and took his family to Guangzhou on the Great Song warship, it is estimated that he will come to Bianjing after the year! The official Zhao Zhen saw the good news in his hand, and said to His Royal Highness's ministers with great joy, and handed the good news in his hand to Gan Ling, a personal servant, and asked him to hand it over to His Highness and the ministers to read.

"Congratulations to the official! Congratulations to the official family! The official family has a discerning eye, promoted Lord Zhao, and vigorously supported Lord Zhao to build a navy, and now Lord Zhao has really expanded the territory for the Great Song Dynasty, and the official family is really famous! The old prime minister Wang Zeng was worthy of being an old fritter who had been in the court for decades, and immediately attributed Zhao Lei's credit to the wisdom of the official Zhao Zhen, and said with a big smile.

Laughing and in a happy mood, the official Zhao Zhen, of course, His Royal Highness and the ministers did not want to fall behind Wang Zeng, and began to sing praises and praise the official Zhao Zhen's reputation.

And Ye Qingchen and other courtiers who have made a lot of money from the logistics yamen of the new army are a little cold in their hearts, thinking about Zhao Lei's same stingy character, if Zhao Lei knows that they not only moved a lot of money from the logistics yamen of the new army, but also moved the old book, Zhao Lei made a great contribution so quickly, I am afraid that there will be no good fruit to eat after coming back.

"Official! At the same time, there was also a letter from Lord Zhao! Seeing that the official family was immersed in the pride of expanding the territory, Gan Ling carefully reminded the official Zhao Zhen and said.

The official Zhao Zhen only then remembered that he still had a copy of Zhao Lei's recital in his hand, and after opening Zhao Lei's recital, the official Zhao Zhen frowned and pondered after reading it.
