Chapter 767: Twelve Toasts

Zhang Han slaughtered four or five tribes along the way. He didn't pay attention to the letters for help. It seems that he has nothing to do with the besieged farmsteads and camps.

Zhang Han was the most unusual, and when he killed the sixth tribe, the tribal chief surrendered, becoming the first tribe to surrender to Zhang Han.

Zhang Han was true to his word, and directly placed all the old and weak of this tribe in a nearby farm, and let the chief continue to follow him with a strong man.

When encountering the enemy, the Yongjun only increased fire support, rather than being responsible for the battle, except for some gold and silver hard goods. All other captives became the property of the tribe.

For a while, the tribe grew up like a ball.

A lot of tribes are well informed. Immediately, someone came to Zhang Han, but in just a few days, the list of these twelve tribes was full.

Zhang Han did not break his promise, equipped many weapons to these twelve tribes, and sent him out to fight against the tribes that invaded Dongyong. All at once, the battle line was pushed from the plain area under the mountain to the mountain.

suddenly relieved Zhu Houhuang's worries.

Zhu Houhuang saw all the reports of Zhang Han and his entourage in Malacca.

Zhu Houhuang ignored all the blood between the lines in Zhang Han's report, and said loudly: "Okay, Zhang Han lives up to my expectations." ”

People with political cleanliness rarely survive. If Zhu Houhuang had maintained his previous political cleanliness, he would have been overwhelmed a long time ago.

saw Zhang Han's series of killings. Zhu Houhuang just felt that the retirement rate of Zhang Han's battalion should be raised, and if this continued, Zhu Houhuang was worried that the soldiers under his command would become beasts that only knew how to kill.

Zhu Houhuang has even labeled Zhang Han, and Zhang Han can handle some tricky things and affairs that need to be cut through the mess quickly.

That's all for later, though.

In fact, Zhang Han is still very good at being an official, Zhang Han also said in the letter that the twelve tribes should be razed into summer, and asked Zhu Houhuang to give names to these twelve tribes. And the division of their boundaries.

Zhu Houhuang immediately replied, the geographical division let him take care of it, as for the name, Zhu Houhuang's eyes rolled, and suddenly a bad taste came to his heart, naming these tribes, respectively, Situ, Sikong, Changkong, Changsun, Sima, Fifth, Zhuge , Nangong, Dongfang, Ximen. Ouyang. Huangfu.

There are a total of twelve compound surnames.

Zhu Houhuang decided that in the future, all naturalized toasts would be given compound surnames.

Zhu Houhuang had just dealt with the matter here, and had just decided to worry about the future, and a thing that made Zhu Houhuang feel a big headache immediately appeared in front of Zhu Houhuang.

"Your Highness's Old Port Xuanfu Si Shi family has asked His Highness for help." Li Liangqin said.

Zhu Houhuang immediately asked, "What's wrong with the Shi family in the old port?" ”

Is the Old Port Xuanwei Division the southernmost territory of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also one of the Ming Tusi. However, during the Yongle period, he was loyal to the Ming Dynasty, but after so many years, the Shi family has long become an independent force.

When Zhu Houhuang came to Nanyang, he didn't see how the Shi family was, and he looked like the well water did not interfere with the river water. Why did it suddenly pop up at this time, or ask for advice?

Li Liangqin said: "The minister doesn't know, but it's the sister-in-law of the Shi family. ”

Zhu Houhuang said: "Let them come over." ”

As soon as a teenage child saw Zhu Houhuang, he fell to the ground, came on his knees, hugged Zhu Houhuang's leg and said, "Please Your Highness save our Shi family, right?" ”

Zhu Houhuang has not met such a person yet, and said: "Speak well." ”

Without Zhu Houhuang to say, Li Liangqin immediately stepped forward and immediately pulled the child away.

Seeing that the child couldn't hold Zhu Houhuang's legs, he immediately clasped his head fiercely and said: "Your Highness, the minister is the son of the Shi family of the old port Xuanwei Si, Shi Shi'an." I ask Your Highness to look at the Ming Dynasty, save our Shi family, great kindness, and never forget. ”

But in a moment, Shi Shi'an told Zhu Houhuang all the situation.

At the invitation of the Sultan of Aceh, the Sultan of Aceh attacked the island of Sumatra, and the first target they attacked was the Old Port.

No matter what the Shi family says, they are all the toasts of the Ming Dynasty. During the Yongle years, he received great support from the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, the Shi family is also a relatively wealthy place in Nanyang. However, the Shi family was caught off guard, and under the cooperation of returning to the merchants, the Shi family suffered a loss, and their vitality was greatly damaged, so they could only defend the old port city.

The Shi family has no choice, and if they continue to defend it, there is only a dead end, and they must find a way. We have to find a way to get reinforcements. So he sent his own son, Shi Shi'an.

After Zhu Houhuang had a general understanding, he immediately asked people to go down and take Shi Shi'an down to settle down.

Zhu Houhuang immediately asked Wu Fengyi, "What's the matter with you?" There's a fight here, and you didn't even give the news to Lone? ”

Wu Fengyi is used to carrying the black pot.

Zhu Houhuang also discovered this. I have to say that intelligence work is very dependent on transportation, so many cases are like this, not that there are no intelligence officers, but that intelligence cannot be delivered in a timely manner. It was almost after the incident that someone got the details of the incident.

Zhu Houhuang didn't blame him, he just felt that he couldn't breathe it out.

Wu Fengyi said: "The minister is guilty, please ask His Royal Highness to punish him?" ”

Zhu Houhuang listened to Wu Fengyi's words, but he was embarrassed, Wu Fengyi was his elder after all. said: "Let's talk about it, how is it in the Danmu country?" ”

Wu Fengyi said: "The Danmu Kingdom was overthrown by the Muslims, and now is the climax of the mission, and any non-believers will not be trusted, so the minister's eyes will not get any news." ”

Zhu Houhuang didn't want to get any news from Wu Fengyi, so he said, "Gather the generals." ”

"Yes." Someone immediately agreed to come down.

Ten minutes, though.

All the people with heads and faces in Malacca came to Zhu Houhuang's side.

Zhu Houhuang sat on the chair, and Li Liangqin completely conveyed the situation he was facing.

Zhu Houhuang finally spoke: "Tell me, this old port, save it or not? ”

It's the question that's the crux of the matter.

During this period of time, the naval divisions of the two sides fought continuously, but there were no major battles, all of them were skirmishes, and the losses on both sides were not small. But this state is very unstable.

Perhaps, they can face each other for several months, and maybe the battle will start one day, and within a day, the decisive battle will start.

Victory is fine, if it loses, it will lose control of the Strait of Malacca.

If there is no control of the Strait of Malacca, then the old port does not matter whether it can be saved or not. Because without control, an expedition across the sea is a dead end.

Huang Shilong fell into deep thought, he thought a lot, and finally said slowly: "Your Highness, the Franc machine ship is strong and sharp, and although the Dongyong type is reinforced, it is much weaker, so it is a battle against the Franc machine and sailor." I can only tell Your Highness that the minister can only do his best to remain undefeated. ”

Zhu Houhuang understands that the so-called undefeated means that there is little hope of winning.

Huang Shilong's feelings are the deepest, and it can be said that he couldn't be deeper.

After one battle after another, Huang Shilong found that in terms of ships, Dongyong's ships were inferior to the warships of the Franc Machine, and after the two sides withstood the artillery bombardment, the Franc Aircraft ships could withstand greater shelling.

As far as artillery is concerned, Dongyong's bronze artillery is very powerful, more powerful than the Franc cannon, but the problem is still not as good as the artillery carried on these Franc ships.

This kind of artillery is the so-called Hongyi cannon.

The more time passed, the more ships gathered in Malacca, and almost the entire dock in Malacca was occupied. Although these ships were not good at fighting, they far outnumbered the Franc fleet.

Huang Shilong originally thought that he could defeat the opponent in a dignified manner, but he had to use the numerical advantage to remain undefeated, and more could not be done at all.

Therefore, when the sea supremacy cannot be guaranteed. Crossing the sea to save the old port was simply a gamble. And this kind of gambling is not allowed by others to go down for Zhu Houhuang.

"Your Highness." Yu Dayou said: "Now the enemy situation is unknown. The military strength of the Danmu Kingdom is not clear at all, but if you want to inherit the Three Buddhas, the Danmu Kingdom of the Majapahit Country must not be underestimated. Therefore, before defeating the Franc machine, no other plans were made. ”()
