Quang Binh Fu City.

All the Han people inside and outside the city were ordered to move out, and Sun Chuanting wanted to take them to Quang Nam Province.

In order to defend the city with a small number of troops, all the Yue residents in Quang Binh City have been expelled from the city. Now when I see a big house, I will enter it, and take away the valuable brains, but I don't touch those small doors.

Boatloads of goods were transported to naval ships, and the Datong army abandoned the city with the Han people.

Sun Dakui couldn't help but ask: "Sun Buzheng, the Ruan clan is empty in the country, why don't you take advantage of the situation to fight south?" Even if we don't fight south, we should hold Quang Binh, and we finally attacked and conquered the city. ”

Sun Chuanting had already stepped on the deck of the ship and explained: "In a few months, the weather will get hotter, and the rain will not stop. You know these things, too. We now have few troops, and Quang Binh City is not conducive to defense, so the Nguyen family will definitely attack the army. At that time, the soldiers stationed in Guangping City did not know how many people died in battle, and even if they defended, they would lose more than they gained. ”

"How can you say that the gains outweigh the losses? This is a big city," Sun Dakui still couldn't let go, "Besides, how can there be immortals in war?" ”

Sun Chuanting said with a smile: "Guangping City is here, can it still give birth to wings and fly away?" In the future, choose a suitable month, as soon as the army comes, the entire Nguyen clan will be leveled, so why bother with the city and place of Quang Binh. ”

In this way, Nguyen Phuc Wei led the army back to the division and angrily killed Quang Binh.

Sun Chuanting didn't show any nostalgia, took his goods and Han Min, threw it down the city and ran away. Only the border city was firmly occupied by the Datong army, and if troops were sent in the future, they could take Quang Binh City directly along the river.

"What? The thieves abandoned the city and fled? ”

Halfway through, Nguyen Phuc received the news, and he was so happy that he wanted to vomit blood.

Then, what to do?

It is impossible to fight Bin Tong Long again, and it is even more nonsense to attack Quang Nam Province in the north. After several years of strong soldiers, tens of thousands of elite soldiers were gathered this time, but not only did they not catch anything, but they also lost the border gate, and Guangping Mansion was also robbed by the Han army.

The city must be taken back, otherwise in the future, the Han soldiers will come if they want!

"Keep going north!"

Ruan Phuc ordered that he would start a war with China anyway, and he had to take advantage of the absence of China's main force to quickly recapture his Xiongguan.

This cargo led his troops to the north for more than 200 miles, and suddenly received news on the way: "Your Majesty, it's not good, the Han thieves are attacking Chengtian Mansion (Hue)!" ”

Ruan Fuwei didn't react a little, asked several times to confirm that he heard correctly, and roared angrily: "The Han thief deceived me too much, immediately return to the army to defend the national capital!" From next year, I will expand the Dayue Naval Division (Navy)! As he spoke, he called the civilian officer of the army again, "You immediately write a letter of invitation and ask the messenger to go to Nanjing with the gifts." ”

Some small countries are just such nonsense, they obviously can't win, but they have to provoke big countries.

It is said that Yang Guang worked hard and hurt the people and money, and forcibly conquered Goguryeo three times, making Goguryeo like a victim. But a few people know that it was Goguryeo who invaded the Sui Dynasty first, which completely angered Emperor Yang of Sui.

As early as when Yang Guang had not yet ascended the throne, Goguryeo began to play tricks, and the Sui Dynasty couldn't spare his hand, so he always chose to be patient.

As a result, Goguryeo kicked his nose in the face, and directly sent troops to attack Liaodong, but was repelled by the Yingzhou Assassin of the Sui Dynasty. When Yang Jian sent the king of Han to conquer, the king of Goguryeo was so frightened that he apologized and called himself "Liaodong Dung Tu Chenyuan". Probably meaning, I'm just a piece of stinky shit, Dad, you spare me, leading soldiers to beat me will dirty Dad's hands.

The mind of the Ruan monarch was actually similar to that of Goguryeo, and he felt that China was expanding too fast, and he had to find an opportunity to fight.

It's just a bit ridiculous, with tens of thousands of troops, first ran to attack the city, and then returned to the army to the north to rescue Quang Binh, and now turn the road to the south to rescue Hue. Except for the many dead and wounded in Bintonglong, the rest of the time was tossed back and forth, and he didn't even touch the hair of the Datong Army.

And on the side of the Datong Army, it is really not Chengcheng who treats Ruan Fuwei as a dog.

Yang Zhan withdrew his troops from Burma normally, and when he withdrew to Palembang, he heard that the Nguyen clan was fighting Bin Thong Long. So, he hurriedly took a boat to the rescue, and after arriving at Bin Thong Long, he heard that the Nguyen clan had withdrawn his army, so angry that he took a boat to bombard the capital of the Nguyen clan.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Inside the harbor, earth-shattering cannons rang out.

In addition to the naval fleet brought by Yang Zhan, there is also the envoy fleet of Lu Tianxiang and Zhang Ruifeng.

When the envoy fleet returned from Pattani, when they passed by Bin Thong Long for supplies, they heard that Hue was fighting, so they also ran to help fire a few cannons.

Prince Charles held a clairvoyant mirror and stood on the deck to observe the battlefield, and dozens of warships bombarded the fortified city, which made him feel extremely shocked. This kind of battle is not often seen in Europe.

"Which country is this?" Charles asked.

Pan Wei explained: "This was once the homeland of China, but it fell for hundreds of years because of the rebellion. Those traitors established a Yue country, and now it is the capital of the Yue country that is being shelled. ”

"I see." Prince Charles immediately understood, the local lord launched a rebellion, broke away from the monarch and became the king, this kind of rebellious minister and thief should be beaten hard.

A regular division of Quang Nam Province led by Yang Zhan, as well as the Datong Army to protect the visiting mission, have all successfully landed and launched an encirclement of Hue.

To tell the truth, both of these armies contain a large number of wounded and sick, and most of them are sick.

The defenders in Hue City are about 5,000 people, but there are still more than 100,000 residents, who can be pulled out to defend the city at any time.

It's really hard to fight!

Nguyen Phuc Binh's eldest son was only ten years old, and his second son was only five years old. Faced with the siege of the city, the ministers of the Nguyen Dynasty panicked, and the young master, the uncle of the state, and the county prince Song Fukang presided over the overall situation.

Historically, the next few queens of the Nguyen regime all had the surname "Song", or "Song Phuc".

The word "Fu" may or may not be added.

Just like Nguyen Phuc Wei, it's okay to say that his surname is "Ruan", and it's not wrong to say that his surname is "Nguyen Phuc".

Song Fukang is the leader of the Hue gentry. He not only did the ideological work of the ministers, but also called the gentry and merchants in the city: "The Zheng clan in the north has been destroyed, what happened to the gentry and merchants, I think you all already know." Every household, if there is money to pay, and there are people to pay, Hue City must be guarded. Once the city is broken, you and I will all die, and all the land and property will be robbed! ”

"When you are in danger, you should serve the country, my Duan family will pay 1,000 taels, and 30 slaves will be soldiers!"

"My Zhang family pays 1,000 taels, and 20 slaves are soldiers!"

"My Chen family pays 1,000 taels ......"

The Datong court's policy of dividing the land in the north really frightened the gentry in the south. Although the donation money is relatively small, the gentry of Hue are indeed working together to defend the city.

Immediately, Song Fukang carried out propaganda in the city, saying that the Datong army was brutal and killed, and after breaking through Hue, he would definitely slaughter the city, and fool the people of Hue into taking up arms.

"Knock knock!"

The messenger rang the gong and shouted along the street: "Han merchant Li Yongjin, pay 1,000 taels of silver." Zhang Chong, a Han merchant, paid 800 taels of silver. Han merchant Chen Lianggui ......"

Hue City is inhabited by a large number of Han Chinese merchants, who have formed a community of commercial interests with the Hue gentry.

Song Fukang was very insidious, first sending troops to force the Han merchants to donate money, and then beating gongs and drums to publicize it, cutting off the retreat of those Han businessmen.

Qian Fang was a guy from a business, and he silently observed the situation on the street.

The big shopkeeper Qian Deshun suddenly said: "Qian Fang, come here." ”

"Okay!" Qian Fang nodded and followed the big shopkeeper into the house.

The big shopkeeper, who was quite generous outside, knelt down after entering the house, and wailed in a low voice: "My lord, the owner also donated a thousand taels." The proprietor asked me to be Lord Bingming, and he was also forced, and the thieves entered the house and forced him to donate silver. ”

Qian Fang sat on the main seat, picked up the teacup and said, "I know everything." You can ask our proprietor to bring a letter to the other merchants in the city. They donate silver to the thieves, and the court will not blame them for this. Just remember one thing, in the future, the imperial court destroyed the Ruan clan and the merchants who purchased the land had to honestly cooperate with the division of the land. ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Qian Deshun kowtowed repeatedly.

Qian Fang took a sip of tea: "What should you do, just go ahead, this Hue City can't be beaten for the time being." ”

The Han Chinese, who did business in the Nguyen territories, wanted to maintain the status quo, and they were too deeply connected to the local gentry. Some Han businessmen have even become the gentry of Hue, marrying wives and having children, and buying land here, no different from the large landlords of the Yue people.

If it weren't for the fact that the Datong army was too strong, these Han businessmen might have helped the Ruan clan in the war.

But who is not a shrewd person in business?

As early as two or three years ago, there were already Han landlords who sold their land one after another, so as not to be divided by the imperial court in the future.

Outside the city.

Yang Zhan gritted his teeth and said, "Withdraw the army!" ”

The hot air balloon has been observed very clearly, and the city is full of soldiers and civilians defending the city, and a large number of materials have been prepared to defend the city. And the streets and alleys in the city are also moving materials back and forth.

In such a situation, if the city is forcibly attacked, the Datong army will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

Moreover, it is almost a hot and rainy season, and the troops must be withdrawn to rest and recuperate, otherwise a large number of non-combat attrition will inevitably be caused.

Seeing the Datong army leave by boat, the soldiers and civilians in the city cheered, but the Han merchants were frowning one by one.

They complained about the Nanjing court for a while, why did they have to think about annexing the Ruan family? After a while, he complained about Ruan Fuwei, can't he live a good life? Why are you sending troops to provoke China?

Han businessmen know very well that if it is fast, it will be this autumn and winter, and if it is slow, it will be delayed until next autumn, and the Chinese army will inevitably be overwhelmed!

These businessmen would love to run away, but many of them have already made Hue their home. They have shops here, warehouses here, and a fleet of ships, buying goods from Hue and running the sea trade.

The Han people monopolized the Ruan trade, this is not a joke, they are all very rich, and they will not give up until they have to.

Nguyen Phuc led the army back to Hue, rewarded the meritorious heroes, and held a happy funeral, claiming that he had achieved a "great victory in Hue".

Then, an investigation began on which Han people were selling land in the past two or three years.

As long as the land is sold more than 100 acres, regardless of whether it is because of the loss of business or not, all of them will be executed on the charge of "collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country".
