Chapter 190: One Crying, Two Troubles, Three Hanging T
On the turbulent blue sea, on the masts of hundreds of warships of various types and sizes, the dragon flag, the sun and moon flags fluttered in the wind, the whistling sea breeze was full of sails, and the oak bottom of the ship quickly pushed away the waves, swimming quickly in the water waves.
Liu Er, Zhang Youde, Wang Qiu, and Liu Guoxuan all stood on the deck of the newly-built big ship Xuanwu, looking at the blue sea and waves, this is the Beibu Gulf, which is the junction of the eastern part of Annam and the southern part of Guangxi.
The hull of the Xuanwu is very large, the speed is not far behind other warships, the important parts of the hull are wrapped in copper skin, and the armor ability is stronger than other warships, but the Xuanwu is designated as a dragon boat, which is the ship of the emperor's proclamation to the four seas, so the long-range weapons such as artillery are removed, and the whole ship is more like a building ship, and there is a three-storey cabin on the hull for the emperor's use.
Now that the emperor has gone to sea in person, hundreds of warships will protect the Xuanwu, like an aircraft carrier, galloping in the sea.
Knock knock knock...... A little eunuch walked out of the cabin, paced to the deck, pinched his throat and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor has risen, and he has ordered you to enter the cabin to meet you." â
The four commanders smoothed their wrinkled clothes and armor one after another, and the obedient Yuguan followed the little eunuch towards the cabin.
"Long live the last general to see my emperor, long live!" In the magnificently decorated cabin, the four walls are covered with light gauze and dungeon lamps. The floor was covered with bright red blankets, and the four conductors lined up. Bow your hand and salute.
Zhu Jun was still washing with a gold toothbrush, and after wiping his face, he sat back on the chair at the top: "Excuse me, there was a strong wind last night, and the hull of the ship was shaky." I haven't slept well all night, hey, you Aiqing must be the same. â
Liu Guoxuan replied with a smile: "The last general grew up in the sea, but he slept on the ground, presumably the same is true of Lord Liu Er, who only worked hard for the emperor, Lord Zhang, and Lord Wang." â
Wang Qiu squeezed his eyes. The crimson scar on his face twitched in horror, and he sighed: "Don't hide it from the emperor, the last general is a landlubber, and this hardship is enough."
Zhu Jun smiled and said, "Sit down, Liu Er, how far is it from the coast of Guangxi?" â
The four conductors sat on their sides on either side of the cabin. Liu Er replied: "We can arrive and land tomorrow." â
Zhu Jun said: "That's good." Wait for our troops to land. Liu Guoxuan led the Oriental Navy Division to turn south. Attack on the remnants of Luzon by the Dutch. At that time, the headquarters of the Oriental Navy Division will be in Luzon. I have already made a deal with the Spaniards. Luzon was divided into two parts. The northern part is under the jurisdiction of the province of Daming Java. The battalion of the Oriental Navy Division was stationed here. It is bordered by Japan and Taiwan to the east. It is adjacent to Guangxi to the north. Hainan. Guangdong. It faces Java to the west. It can consolidate Guangxi. The next step is to seize Hainan. It can also deter Guangdong. Taiwan's Geng Jingzhong monk is gratifying. It's a great military fort. I have decreed that the Ministries are ready to take over the land. Liu Aiqing. Don't let me down. â
Liu Guoxuan hurriedly agreed: "Weichen dares not to do his best. â
In the field, the four conductors were originally born lowly. The best life experience is that Zhang Youde is a hereditary commander. Liu Er was born at the helm. Wang Qiu was promoted to the ranks. Liu Guoxuan was only a middle-level officer in the Jinxia Naval Division. Now all four of them have become prominent. Hands in the palm of your hand. If there is no Zhu Jun to pull out. How these people can have today. It's strange that Liu Guoxuan doesn't do his best.
Zhu Jun's eyes fell on the other three: "After the army landed in Guangxi. Wang Qiu took the death camp as the vanguard. Zhang Youde and I are at the helm of the Chinese army. Liu Er led the Nanyang Navy Division Battalion to the coast of Guangdong. Remember. Don't attack in any way. All it takes is for the fleet to swim near the coastline and provoke. I only need the sailor battalion to intimidate Guangdong. So that Shang Kexi did not dare to enter Guangxi easily to help. â
"The last general obeys!" The three of them left their seats together and hugged their fists in promise.
Zhu Jun's eyes sank: "The primary task of our army is to take advantage of the emptiness of Guangxi to attack its belly and back, this surprise attack must be fast, there can be no mud and water, once the Dingbei army captures Sichuan, our army captures Guangxi, and the backyard of the Qing soldiers besieging Kunming is on fire, it will be in chaos." â
The four of them nodded, encircling Wei to save Zhao is indeed more valuable than directly rushing to aid Yunnan, once the Qing army found that Guangxi was captured, the news spread to the city of Kunming, most of the Qing army's family affairs are in Guangxi, it must be that the army's heart is shaken, and it will collapse without a fight.
Zhu Jun changed his relaxed expression and greeted the four of them: "My breakfast is coming, you also stay here, accompany me to eat here, and take care of your spirits today." â
At this moment, a knocking sound came from the deck, and a little eunuch cautiously pulled his robe in and said, "Your Majesty, a small boat has sailed along the coast, claiming to be an official of Hue Province in Annam, and asking to see Your Majesty. â
Zhu Jun looked left and right and asked, "Where is the water area of Annan here?" â
Liu Er replied: "It was the officials of Annam in the waters of Hue Province who received the news that the sailors had come to the west and came to meet them
Zhu Jun nodded: "Since you're here, let him in." â
After about a cup of tea, a black-faced Vietnamese dressed in the official uniform of the Ming Dynasty walked in, bowed to Zhu Jun respectfully, and said in Chinese with a Guangxi accent: "Long live Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, long live Long live, Long live Long live, Le Van Jing, the governor of Hue Province of Annan, bow three times." â
Zhu Jun said flat, in the Ming Dynasty's vassals, Korea and Annam can be said to be the vassal states with the highest rate of sinicization, not only the name of the Chinese language, clothing, customs, and even the official language and writing are deeply influenced by Han culture, for example, although Korea created its own script in the 14th century, but their official common language is completely replaced by Chinese and Chinese characters, whether or not to write Chinese characters is the boundary between intellectuals and ordinary people, all nobles and scholars must know Chinese characters if they want to be officials.
Li Wenjing stood up, congratulated a few more words, and then got to the point: "Your Majesty the Emperor, Annan is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, is it to attack the hinterland of Guangxi when the Ming Navy Division came to Beibu Gulf this time?" â
Zhu Jun said undeniably, for this governor of unknown origin, some vigilance is inevitable.
Li Wenjing said again: "Your Majesty, the ministers are coming to ask for a trip on behalf of His Royal Highness the King, the king is in the north, and Annan is adjacent to Guangxi. â
The purpose of Le Van Jing is very simple, that is, I hope that Annan can follow the Ming army to get a piece of the pie, the victory of the Ming army has made Annan feel that the bet is right, the original mentality of both ends of the snake and mouse suddenly became the loyal vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, in fact, although the name of Annam today is a country, but the country has been divided, South Vietnam and North Vietnam are ruled by the Li Dynasty and the Mo Dynasty respectively, Hue Province is the border area of the confrontation between the Later Li Dynasty and the Mo Dynasty, Le Van Jing is the clan of the Li Dynasty, and it is the governor of Hue Province, this time the Ming army raided Guangxi, He immediately saw the benefits of this move to the Li Dynasty in South Vietnam, once the Ming army occupied Guangxi, it could immediately connect with the land of Yunnan, the relationship between the Li Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty was strong, if it could enter Guangxi in the name of helping the Ming army's northern expedition, then as long as a small request for the Ming army to raise their hands to the south, the Li Dynasty in South Vietnam could march north, under the front and back attacks, the demise of the Mo Dynasty was only a matter of time.
The unification of Annam is the dream of the rulers of the LĂŞ Dynasty for a hundred years, and Le Van Kyong immediately felt that this dream within reach would be realized in his own hands, and immediately became emotional.
Zhu Jun was stunned by the help sent to the door, of course he knew the essence of these wall grasses, if it weren't for the strong sailors of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that Annan would have already declared himself a subject to the Manchurians, how could he suddenly be willing to cooperate with him to enter the army?
After weighing, Zhu Jun shook his head, no matter what careful thoughts Annan was hiding, there was no need for them to send troops, first, Guangxi was originally empty, and the Ming army was overwhelming, and there was no need for the assistance of allies at all, and secondly, the military discipline of a feudal army like Annan was obviously not very good, and when it entered Guangxi, burning, killing and looting, it would lose the hearts of the people of the Ming Dynasty.
"The Northern Expedition of the King of China, there are thousands of Ming soldiers who have followed one after another, and I have received the kindness of the Kingdom of Annan, so you go and inform your king and tell him that he only needs to watch from the wall and see how I recover
How did Li Wenjing know that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty would be like this. Seeing Zhu Jun's refusal, he couldn't help but be anxious, you still don't accept the Northern Expedition of the Ming Army, is there any reason for this, he was originally very sure, but he didn't expect to meet Zhu Jun, a flute head, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty the Ming Emperor, this is a little filial piety from our king to Your Majesty, please be sure to accept it." â
Zhu Jun waved his hand: "Everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door, you don't have to worry about crying, what is this, you are not happy to send your soldiers to help you fight, no way, Li Wenjing knelt on the carpet with a puff, and the corners of his eyes were already blurred: "I implore His Majesty the Emperor not to cold the filial piety of his subordinates, under the whole world, it is not the land of the Ming Dynasty, the shore of the land, the minister of His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Annan obeys the heart of the king, and the sun and the moon can be seen." My king lives in a corner, but he is also His Majesty's courtier, and it is right for the courtier to serve the king, if His Majesty the Emperor does not agree, the minister will not be able to kneel for a long time. â
The four commanders sitting on both sides of the envoy were confused all of a sudden, what is going on, even after looking through the ancient books and classics, I don't see such a touching scene, a vassal is desperate to help the emperor conquer, the emperor is not allowed, the vassal is crying and shouting and kneeling and can't get up, this, what a mess.
Zhu Jun was also extremely depressed, he only felt that Zhang Er's head was confused, how could there be such a thing in the world, someone wanted to send something, you didn't accept it, he still forced it into your arms, you don't want it, he cried and made trouble and hanged himself.........
