Chapter 154: Counterinsurgency

Even if Shangguan Ying made such an arrangement, to be honest, there was still no possibility of escaping from the encirclement of the Vietnamese rebels, and the other party was crowded, how could Zhao Qin lead people to break through. Just when everyone began to despair, a sudden change occurred!

Behind the Vietnamese rebels suddenly there was chaos! Screams rang out.

"What's going on?" Shangguan Ying, who had already died generously, suddenly stopped, because the Vietnamese rebels no longer fought him, and all ran south.

Zhao Qin also withdrew with Zhan Tianhong and others at this time, obviously he was also inexplicable, and he didn't know what was going on.

After about a quarter of an hour, it was discovered that the reason why the Vietnamese rebels had retreated hastily was because a team had rushed at them, but their weapons, although stronger than those of the Vietnamese, could still be broadswords and spears.

Those people also found Shangguan Ying and the others at this time, and the first old man with a bloody big knife immediately spoke: "Dare to ask you, are you from the autonomous region?" ”

Chinese, although with a strong southern accent, is indeed Chinese!

Shangguan Ying hugged his wrists and arched his hand at this time: "We are indeed from the Northeast Autonomous Region, dare to ask the old gentleman's name?" ”

The old man smiled and said, "In Lower Meng'an, I originally lived in Anxi, east of Bolaigu, but later the Yue people rebelled and slaughtered our Chinese people. The old man was forced to gather the nearby Han people and deal with them, and now lives in the mountains, waiting for the insurance team to counterattack and avenge the death of our relatives. ”

"I see, thank you for saving your life!"

After that, Shangguan Ying followed the old man back to the Hanming camp, where there were quite a few people, two or three thousand people. Nearly half of them were men, but now men, women and children are armed with weapons. Shangguan Ying understands that he doesn't dare to say anything else, at least safety can be guaranteed here.

After Yan Fu bombarded Bangkok, he had no land troops in his hands, so he had no choice but to return. However, he got news of Zhan Tianyou halfway, so he immediately contacted the airship unit in Sanya and said that he would take Zhan Tianyou back.

When the two Mammoths and the two Pit Viper airships landed, all the Han people in the camp cheered, and two hundred insurance soldiers were transported to the camp, along with all kinds of food to eat. The two hundred members of the insurance team were handed over to Shangguan Ying's command, and his task changed from protecting the exploration team to protecting the two or three thousand Han people who were transferred to Quy Nhon along the coast. The exploration team, the wounded, and some elderly and infirm women and children were sent back to Sanya, but some were unable to wake up again, including Mu Ningsheng.

In the northeast, although the counterinsurgency troops sent by the autonomous region to the four southern provinces have reached the scale of nearly 50,000, in addition to one ace of the first infantry division, two Korean divisions will be dispatched, which is somewhat unexpected to everyone.

"Sir, why are you sending two North Korean divisions?"

"Isn't the establishment of the Korean division for war? In addition, you are now the prime minister of the autonomous region, not just the prime minister of the northeast, the DPRK is also our territory, and you must treat everyone equally! ”

"That's what the gentleman said." Yang Qiuxing nodded.

"In addition, don't call them any North Korean divisions, they are our Northeast Fifth Infantry Division and Fifth Artillery Division!" Wang Yi laughed at this time and said, "Qiu Xing, I know you doubt their combat strength. However, in my opinion, it is enough to have the 1st Infantry Division to counter-insurgency, and the Vietnamese rebels, although they are now making a lot of noise, are nothing more than a rabble. Relying on the advantage of numbers, they can still show off their might, but in front of the real army, they are some slaughtered prey! ”

"That's what the gentleman said! I see, sir, the Fifth Infantry Division and the Fifth Artillery Division were actually sent over for the purpose of training! ”

"And that's not all! This is also to allow the DPRK to better integrate with us. You sent a telegram to Yan Fu and told him that the North Korean soldiers should be treated equally, and the army does not ask where they come from, and each one depends on his ability. ”

"Hmm!"

"In addition to us sending troops, let North Vietnam Province and Lao Province each recruit a division and send special people to train, regardless of nationality, as long as they are not traitors, they can join."

"Okay!"

On March 12, 1886, a bombing force consisting of four pit viper and two mammoth airships set out again from Sanya, aiming directly at Saigon. Of the six airships, four pit viper airships were loaded with bombs, and the other two mammoth airships were carrying a hundred strangely dressed soldiers.

"Your target is this place, the temporary royal palace of King Nguyen King Nguyen King Trung Nguyen Nguyen of Vietnam, which is hidden and not in Saigon. But it was still known to our scouts. You have only one goal, to kill Ruan Ying. The code name of this operation is called decapitation! ”

"Yes!"

In the darkness of the night, two pit viper airships began to attack targets in the Saigon area, and the Vietnamese rebels fled in all directions amid the roar of bombs, while two mammoth airships planted seeds in the hidden area under the cover of the pit viper attack.

Yan Fu, who was stationed in Da Nang, Vietnam, already knew the news, "Dandelion blooms!" ”

The Dandelion unit is the paratrooper special unit in the big merchant insurance team, a team that specializes in sabotage and decapitation operations behind enemy lines. They tried their skills repeatedly in the battlefield against Tsarist Russia, and at this time, Wang Yi transferred these 100 people from the northern front, and the goal was to capture the thief and capture the king first to attack Ruan Ying. If he had died, the Kinh rebellion in Vietnam would have been put down in half. The mission is dangerous, but it's worth trying.

The 100 Dandelions quickly gathered and headed towards the target location.

Nguyen Anh's palace was built on a small mountainous area surrounded by 5,000 musket troops, known as the royal guards. The palace is surrounded by many guards, watchtowers and turrets.

"The dandelion has reached the designated position, and the pit viper can start attacking."

Of the four pit viper ships that had come with them, only two had been bombed on Saigon, while the other two had been following the mammoth airship. When the news of the dandelion came, they finally got into action, and a series of bombs were dropped, causing the royal court guards to roll on their backs. The other two airships attacked the rebel troops below with their cannons, and for a time the royal court guards scattered and fled.

Led by captain Han Meng, the dandelion troops descended the rope from the cliff on one side, and under the cover of the airship attack, they attacked the Vietnamese royal palace. Basically, he killed people when he saw them, leaving no living mouth at all, and after searching everywhere, he finally found the underground shelter of the royal family. Many members of the royal family were found, but only Nguyen Ying himself was found, and later I found out that the Vietnamese king was not in the palace, but followed Prime Minister Nguyen Thanh Van to the front line of Phnom Penh.

The biggest fish was not found, and Han Meng was not disappointed, and after exterminating all the people in the palace, he began to evacuate with his teammates, and then returned to the mammoth airship again in the agreed safe place, and all the staff returned.

Although the expected results were not achieved, this operation scared Ruan Ying enough, and the family was killed by dandelions. At this time, he also figured out that people would stay on the front line in Phnom Penh to supervise the army, and no matter how you look at it, it is the safest here.

Ruan Chengwen has no way to do this, as for the slaughter of the royal family, he blocked the news from the outside world, otherwise if it spreads, I am afraid that all his troops will be scared.

Half a month later, the 1st Infantry Division landed at Wei Lun in Cambodia, and the division commander at this time was Xiao Botong. First, he captured the white horse without much effort, and then attacked the tea gum. In an instant, the entire force was behind the Vietnamese rebels who were attacking Phnom Penh.

The 5th Artillery Division also landed at Vung Tau at this time and is currently launching an assault on Saigon. The 5th Infantry Division landed at Vinh in central Vietnam and marched all the way to Bac Shan, where after a short rest, would attack the Siamese army that was attacking Vientiane and then spread the flames of battle to Siam.

As soon as these three divisions appeared on the four southern provinces, the battlefield immediately changed dramatically.

Although Siam intensified its attack on Cambodia, it was never able to break through the strong defensive lines established by the insurance team in Zhuangthaburi, Sisophon, Samlong, Preah Vihear and the servants. Siam could only watch as the Nguyen rebels perished under the powerful firepower of the 1st Infantry Division and the 5th Artillery Division of Da Shang.

Nguyen King Jong Nguyen Anh later died in the rebellion, and the prime minister who elected him king of Vietnam was very loyal and died by his side. However, the death of the Vietnamese king did not stop the 1st Infantry Division and the 5th Artillery Division from wielding the butcher's knives in their hands, and more than 100,000 Vietnamese rebels were killed, and the insurance team did not accept prisoners at all.

After the pacification of South Vietnamese Province, the 1st Infantry Division and the 5th Artillery Division combined to move north directly into Siam, while Yan Fu's fleet again sailed into Bangkok Bay. The 5th Infantry Division, which had already completed the siege of Vientiane, also moved into Siam territory, and began to attack along the Udon Thani and Khon Kaen lines with the newly established 1st Lao Division and the 1st North Vietnamese Division.

Although the Siamese army resisted stubbornly, it was no match for the northeast after all. Seeing that the situation was collapsing like this, Rama V finally understood his situation and had no choice but to ask the British to help mediate. At the request of the British Counsellor in China, Sir Ogne, the Northeast finally stopped its occupation of Siam, and the two sides began to hold talks in Bangkok.

At this time, the 1st Infantry Division had reached the outside of Bangkok, while the 5th Artillery Division had reached Surin, the fastest 5th Infantry Division had reached Nakhon Ratchasima, and the rear of Udon Thani and Khon Kaen were handed over to the 1st Lao Division and the 1st North Vietnamese Division.

It took more than a week for Zhao Liewen to arrive in Bangkok by airship, during which the Fifth Infantry Division and the Fifth Artillery Division were not idle, and wiped out the Siamese army east of Udon Thani to Nakhon Ratchasima. Although Rama V sent his ministers to protest, the two Korean divisions still went their own way, and now everyone understands. This land, Siam is not to want to go back.
