Chapter 438: Death and Surrender
The little Cambodian king actually dared to treat him differently in front of Daming, not only Zhao Shijie couldn't bear it.
Even Xian Feng felt that he was not looking for death when he heard it?
"All the two Annan corps divisions will be used to control the Cambodian army in the city, and all the other defense will be taken over by our Pingnan army!"
"Let's go and meet this Benha Tuo for a while!"
...
Coming to the palace of the Kingdom of Cambodia in Phnom Penh again, Xian Feng was also shocked by it, but his eyes were fixed on Benha Tuo who was walking towards him.
He said, "You are the king of Cambodia?" Benha To? β
The Annan soldier on the side acted as an interpreter and hurriedly stepped forward to speak in Khmer.
Who knows, Benha Tuo changed his humility from the previous time, and instead said in a witty tone: "I am the king of Cambodia, I don't know who you are?" β
After the translation, Xian Feng's expression kept changing.
Then he said: "I am Xian Feng, the general of the Southern Army of the Ming Dynasty to conquer the Kingdom of Cambodia, and now the city of Phnom Penh has been controlled by us... Hereby, to inform you, are you ready to sign a treaty with Daming? β
"What treaty? Aren't you here to clean up those troublesome Annam soldiers for us in Cambodia? We in Cambodia are vassals of the Ming Dynasty...."
Benha Tuo's eyes showed a sly gaze, but Xian Feng, who was unmoved, said coldly: "It's not Annan who attacked you, but the Annan Corps of the Great Tomorrow Leopard Army, the army of the Ming Dynasty... Now I need a final reply from you. β
"Surrender or perish!?"
Benha Tuo smiled slowly and said, "I'm the king, isn't it appropriate for you to talk to me about this?" Even if I'm guilty... It should also be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty to punish me, after all, Cambodia has always been a loyal vassal country of the Ming Dynasty in history! β
Speaking of which, Benha Tuo has obviously made a fool of himself, and even said that he is ready to use the opportunity to deny it.
After all, in his eyes.
If Annan, who has been encroaching on his own land endlessly, calls, then there is nothing he can do... You can only surrender and find a way to cede some places in exchange for peace.
If the other party really wants to swallow the whole of Cambodia, then he can make all the soldiers in Phnom Penh turmoil at any time, and Rao Annan will not dare.
Preparing with both hands is Benha To's plan.
He didn't expect that this time it was actually Da Ming...
Da Ming?
It's so far away from Cambodia, if it's just the Ming army, it's okay to nominally surrender again...
Perhaps, when I go back to pay tribute, I will be able to reward the Ming Emperor a lot?
However, what Benha Tuo didn't know was that this time Daming was determined to expand the new immigration area for Daming, where would there be time to wait for him here.
I only heard Xian Feng say: "That's good! King.. I see what you mean, and I hope you don't regret it! Take! β
After speaking, a large number of soldiers of the Pingnan Army rushed in from the outside and inside, all of them were armed with a new rifle, and more importantly, each rifle was already in a state of being pressed and ready to fire, who knew that Benha Tuo was unmoved.
Instead, he questioned and said, "Is this the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty?" Aren't you afraid of the tens of thousands of soldiers in Phnom Penh? β
"You're not afraid of the Ming Dynasty's Tianwei? You want us to be afraid of you? β
....
Bang bang bang!
A large number of bullets flew in unison.
With the exception of Benha Tho, all the attendants and guards in the palace were killed, after all, according to the rules... They should have died a long time ago.
Keeping them until now is just because Zhao Shijie feels that he may not be able to control the situation with the strength of one regiment and two Annan infantry divisions.
Xian Feng is here, and the army of the Ming Dynasty has arrived!
How dare Benha Tuo be so arrogant?
The sight of flesh and blood frightened Benhar Tho, who suddenly trembled and said, "If I die... Then all the soldiers in Phnom Penh will not let you go! β
"Don't worry, how could you die?" Xian Feng responded coldly.
There is a saying that the villain dies from talking too much...
Benha Tol died of being too naΓ―ve.
All the soldiers in Phnom Penh were already under the control of the Annam Corps, since they had originally appeared as a deterrent.
Then Xian Feng felt that if he couldn't adapt them.
machine guns, you can be fully competent to solve their tasks.
In an instant, the artillery division even unloaded the new artillery from the wagon and aimed all the guns at the Cambodian soldier battalion in the city.
The Cambodian soldiers, who had not been beaten, were still curious about artillery.
Ready.
Xian Feng took people and escorted Benha Tuo to the outside of the camp.
Benha Tuo said angrily: "In what name did the Ming Dynasty come to make me surrender, and in what name did he attack Cambodia..."
Zhao Shijie on the side continued: "When the Ming Dynasty attacked Annam before, because of Cambodia's inaction, the Ming army suffered more casualties. β
"As a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, this point has touched the interests of the Ming Dynasty, so of course we can come to pacify you..."

When did Daming defeat Annan?
In the palace on weekdays, Benha Tuo, who only knows how to indulge in pleasures, can be said to be ignorant of the changes in the outside world, and in his opinion, as long as he can entertain the big and small Buddhas in his own country, then his life can continue to be enjoyable.
However, the constant harassment of Annan's army made Cambodia pay a large amount of land in exchange for peace.
Originally according to history.
This back-and-forth exchange of land for peace can last for another 300 years.
Only now... Benha Tho didn't have that chance.
The speechless Punha Tuo was brought to all the Cambodian soldiers, and tens of thousands of soldiers in Phnom Penh were concentrated in this large camp...
Outside the camp, there were hundreds of cold machine guns.
There is also a whole artillery division that is ready to go has already set up artillery positions, and has even adjusted the elements of artillery bombardment, ready to shell the Cambodian battalion at any time.
"I want to tell you that it was not Annan who defeated you, but the Ming Dynasty! There are now two paths before you! β
"Or continue to submit to Benha Tho in exchange for death!"
"Either like us Annan, choose to surrender to the Ming Dynasty and live a good life where everyone can eat and have a full stomach..."
The impassioned speech came from an interpreter from Annam, after all, the Khmer language was not understood by almost all the Ming soldiers present.
The content, but it comes from the mouth of Li Wen.
