Although Zheta IV, who regained the throne of the god king in Jinben, promised the eastern Mekong region to Huaxia with empty white teeth, this did not mean that the Metropolitan Protectorate of Cam Ranh could control this area without blood, and those Chenla feudal lords who actually controlled the eastern provinces of Cambodia would never willingly give up their territory, so war was inevitable.

On May 27, the third year of Huaxia Wucheng, the governor of Cambodia's pineapple province (ohja) first raised the banner of rebellion and led an army of 3,000 to Jinben. However, the actions of the Wo family seemed to be fast, but the Cambodian army was almost no different from a group of rabble, and the short journey of forty miles took three days, which gave the Huaxia army that held Jinben a chance to annihilate.

Although the 5,000 soldiers and horses that Vietnam promised to transfer have not yet arrived, there were already 2,000 Xia troops on the Jinben front line at this time, including the first regiment of the Fubo Army stationed in Cam Ranh, the Kunlun Regiment composed of the former slave army, and some of the mercenaries provided by the Han Tusi in Duhufu.

On the third day of June, the Wojia army crossed the Mekong River in a small boat and arrived on the outskirts of Jinben.

At this time, the governor of Kampong Chhnang Province in Cambodia (YAT) also responded with troops, but based on the psychology of the king who entered the pass first, Wojia hurriedly attacked Jin Ben without waiting for Yabu to arrive, and as a result, the 3,000 army attacked fiercely for two days, but the loss of troops was defeated under the fire of the Xia army's infantry and Franc machine guns without even approaching the city gate.

Speaking of the Wojia army is not without artillery and arquebuses, you must know that because the Dutch monopolized the spice trade in the spice islands, and the Spanish occupied the Philippine Islands, so the later Taixi countries could only try to obtain basil, cardamom, cloves and other products from Indochina, and in order to exchange for these spices that cost a lot in Europe, the largest return goods of the Taisi people were guns and arms, and the long-term war with Siam also made the nobles in Cambodia all equipped with Western-style weapons.

However, if you have weapons, you have to know how to use them, compared to the Siamese army, which once hired the French to operate the cannons, the more economically embarrassed Zhenla people can only explore new tactics by themselves, and the consequence of this is that in order to prevent the explosion of the chamber, the Cambodian army is very cautious in the loading of gunpowder, so in the end, the original killing weapon has become an alternative drum and horn to motivate the morale of the soldiers, which cannot be compared with the lethality of the Xia army's firearms.

The frustrated Wojia army had to honestly wait for the arrival of the runner-up, but the march of the sub-department was also slow, and it was not possible to come to the meeting for a while, and the helpless Wojia had to lead the army to continue to block outside Jinben City.

But the Wo family obviously didn't think that their end was numbered.

On the night of the fifth day of the sixth month, the 300 Xia troops took 10 fast boats and 4 long dragons to go out of the city along the Mekong River in Jinben City, and then transferred to a large red single boat on the river to detour behind the Wojia army and launched a surprise attack at dawn the next day.

Although Wo Jiajun was wary of Jin Ben's direction, he neglected to guard against his own back, and was caught off guard. Seeing the raging fire in the enemy camp, the Xia army in Jinben City, which had been waiting for a long time, immediately drove out of the city, and the two divisions joined forces and completely defeated the rebels. More than 1,000 people and their subordinates were killed, and the remaining more than 1,500 people fell to the ground and surrendered, and only a few escaped into the jungle in the distance and escaped with their lives.

After interrogating the captives, the victorious Xia army learned that Yabu was coming to converge, so they immediately sent troops. More than 1,000 Xia troops advanced lightly and ambushed the runner-up forty miles away from Jinben. Ya, who thought that the Wojia army had contained the Xia army, was unprepared, and as soon as the battle was fought, the army collapsed. Although Ya himself escaped from the jungle with the help of his subordinates, he escaped from the pursuit of the Xia army, but because his injuries were not treated in time, he finally died of tetanus.

The Xia army won two battles and two victories, which greatly shook the whole of Cambodia. Seeing the strength of the Xia army, coupled with the influence of the Zheta family, from the end of June, the princes and lords of most provinces west of the Mekong River sent people to Zheta IV to express their sincerity, and the Jinben royal court under the support of the Huaxia Dynasty could be regarded as initially gaining a firm foothold.

At the beginning of July, when Vietnamese reinforcements finally arrived, the greatly wealthy Metropolitan Protectorate of Cam Ranh immediately drove the Vietnamese army to sweep the Cambodian provinces west of the Mekong River. In fact, compared with the main force of the Vietnamese army that crossed the Changshan Mountain and entered Xialiao to fight, the 5,000 partial divisions of the Vietnamese royal court to support Cam Ranh can be described as old, weak, sick and disabled, but even so, compared to the Cambodians, who are even weaker in force, the combat strength of the Vietnamese is quite considerable. No, within a month, the Vietnamese army swept through the three provinces of Svay Rieng, Xining, and Xiaohe -- of course, the area of these three provinces was relatively small, equivalent to only four or five counties in China -- and leveled the Cambodian towns and villages along the route, captured nearly 10,000 people in Chenla, and marched to the city of Pineapple Mian.

"Deputy Protector," said Huang Tong, the governor of Zhili Prefecture in Saigon, to Xie Tianjin, who was then the deputy protector of the Metropolitan Protectorate and the president of the Expeditionary Army. "Wang Shi's attack this time is to prepare to include Hedong into the king's land, if you allow the Vietnamese army to kidnap the people, then who will cultivate for our dynasty and pay taxes for our dynasty?"

Xie Tian is the grandson of Xie Yongchang, the pioneer officer of the former Zheng Chenggong Department, and he is also from the Jiayin period of the boy boy battalion, and his qualifications are also very old in the Xia army, but now that he has changed from the military to the literary career, he naturally has to humbly accept the construction of the administrative bureaucracy: "What Lord Huang said is true, but the reward for sending troops from the Vietnamese army is agreed at the beginning, and it is really hard to break the word." Besides, now that Hedong has not been completely pacified, isn't there still a need for the Vietnamese? ”

The deputy governor of the Metropolitan Protectorate is equivalent to the governor of the inland provinces, as a person who can be the enemy of the highest governor of a place, Xie Tian actually has the power to overturn his previous promise, and now he is hesitant, and it is only because the matter is related to the credit and external image of the Huaxia Dynasty, so he does not dare to cross the thunder pool slightly.

Huang Tong, who was born in the Ministry of Industry, thought more: "This matter was decided by the special envoy of the Fanyang Yamen, but the lower officials thought that they owed to think at the beginning, if these Zhenla people fell into the hands of the Vietnamese, wouldn't it make them like a tiger?" Even if you can't stay in the local farming, you must know that there is a shortage of mining slaves on Shilu's side. ”

Huang Tong's words were actually unreasonable, and there was also a suspicion that the Ministry of Industry and the Fanyang Yamen were vying for the dominance of the colony, so Xie Tian, who could understand it, frowned, and only after a long time did he hesitate to order: "Come here, go and invite the host of the Venerable Room." ”

"I've seen Lord Shangguo's capital protector and Huangzhou Yin." As the Privy Councillor of the Privy Council of Zheng Sanpin and the chief envoy of the Second Army of the Eastern Expedition, the Honorable Chamber's host soon responded to the call. "I don't know what the adults summoned me for."

The so-called Zun Chambers is actually the Nguyen surname, but it is not a close branch of the Nguyen King of Vietnam, and the blood relationship is relatively far away, but being given the surname also shows that the status of the host of the Zun Chamber, this person in the Nguyen family, or at least shows that he has some ability and skill, so he will be less than forty years old and obtain one of the highest military positions in Vietnam today.

Of course, Xie Tian would not get straight to the point, so he raised a topic: "Lord Zun Room, Pineapple Mian City is not comparable to the three small cities of Svay Rieng, Xining, and Fulian, and its walls are solid and easy to defend and difficult to attack, I wonder if the Vietnamese army can be sure to capture the city?" ”

Although there are 5,000 Vietnamese troops, more than 2,000 of them cannot fight at all, that is, they can do some escort, escort, and guard work, and as for the remaining 2,000 or nearly 3,000, it is also possible to bully the Cambodian army on flat ground, but it is a little difficult to attack the city.

Therefore, the host of the Venerable Room did not shy away from saying: "If there is the help of the cannons of the kingdom, maybe you can conquer the city." ”

"Cannons to help?" Xie Tianpi bared his teeth without smiling. "General Zunmuro said with a smile, it's not that you haven't seen the artillery brought by our army, it's only for field battles, but it's not suitable for siege." The field artillery commonly used by the Xia army, the Jinlan garrison naturally also has, but the number is limited, and the roads in Southeast Asia are slippery and difficult to walk, so in fact, the main artillery equipped by the Xia army is the big Buddha Lang machine that has been eliminated in China, this kind of artillery has a good effect in close field battles, but it can be used to attack the city. "In the final analysis, it still depends on the courage of the Vietnamese army."

Speaking of which, Vietnam does not want to take advantage of the fire for China, but if China cannot get the east of the Mekong River, it will naturally not support Vietnam to get Xialiao, so he can only work and not make efforts to fight some good luck. Fortunately, the Cambodian army is incompetent, so there have been no heavy casualties so far. But it is impossible to always have a smooth road in the war, and now Xie Tian has asked him to bet on his old book, which touches his bottom line. However, if you don't agree, the gunboats of the Xia Army off the coast of Hoi An are still there, and Cambodia is a lesson for Vietnam.

As a last resort, after thinking about it, the Venerable Chambero replied stubbornly: "Please rest assured, my army will definitely die." ”

Xie Tian nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, so good, with the words of the Venerable Room, the official will feel at ease." ”

Venerable Room breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart had not completely let go, and he was shocked by Xie Tian's next sentence.

"Your Excellency, in addition, the official has something to ask for, please hand over the Zhenla people captured before to the official."

The Venerable Host immediately argued without thinking: "What? Lord Xie wants to take back all the Zhenla captives. My lord, this is the inheritance of the angel of your country, and it is extremely unfair to our army to do this. ”

"I don't know how the envoy of the Fanyang Yamen responded to your country, but your army took all the people, who will work for our dynasty, and who will levy land and labor from our dynasty." Xie Tian replied with what Huang Tong said to himself, and looked at the Venerable Chamber's face like a pig's liver, and he sneered. "Of course, you can't work your country in vain, so if people stay, the money can be given to you, and you can take all the gold, silver and jewelry in the pineapple city, and you can also do the same in the future when you encounter cities and towns that have resistance, General Venerable, do you think this is okay?"

"This?" Speaking of which, Vietnam is not short of manpower now, so Xie Tian's solution is not unfair, so the Venerable Room thought about it for a long time and gritted his teeth. "Please also take care of your word."

"Your Excellency, this official is not the protector of Jinlan, but the so-called true word can still be done"
