Chapter 229
"But this place is not Han land after all, there are many foreign races, we and other Ming people are lonely, so we have to go to Luzon to ask for help, but it has attracted the jealousy of the Ruan lord of Guangnan, it is my fault, and I have suffered the Ming people of Dongpu." Chen Shangchuan said in pain.
Under the city, the Ming officers and soldiers are cleaning up the bones of the Ming soldiers who died in battle.
Before the night attack on the camp of the Fanjun, about 300 Ming soldiers were killed, Zhenla soldiers cut off their heads, perhaps to humiliate the Ming, the heads of the more than 300 Ming soldiers were actually pulled away by the soldiers in a carriage.
The Ming officers and soldiers in the city watched, but they were powerless.
Looking at the corpses that were carried out, Chen Shangchuan looked a little depressed.
"Don't blame yourself, Dongpu is not the land of Guangnan, and the adults contacted the Luzon Ming Court for the people of Dongpu, which was originally a move to care about the Ming Dynasty, which attracted the suspicion of Lord Ruan, but it was all Lord Ruan's wolf ambitions, and it had nothing to do with adults." Seeing this, Brother Ding hurriedly said.
"Now Dongpu is suffering from this war, all because of the suspicion of the Lord of Quang Nam Nguyen."
"In addition, this Dongpu is the land of Zhenla, as long as the Ming people are in Dongpu for a day, Zhenla is uneasy, and he will definitely send troops to attack, why don't you lead all the people of Dongpu to return to the Luzon Ming Court?" Brother Ding persuaded.
"It's not a secret, the Ming court of Luzon set up a county community in Luzon, the Ming lord is benevolent, the Han of Luzon live and work in peace and contentment, the Chinese businessmen and Chinese in Nanyang are all obedient, the adults have a place in Dongpu, and there are thousands of people, why not lead the troops to return to the Ming court, it is better to make a wedding dress for Guangnantu here." Brother Ding persuaded him.
Looking at Brother Ding, Chen Shangchuan fell into deep thought.
Before he contacted the Ming court in Luzon, he simply heard that Taiwan's Zheng Jun rebel general led his troops to Luzon in the south, and he wanted to just contact him, but fortunately he had a response in Nanyang, who would have thought that the Ming power in Luzon would be so strong.
Now that Zhenla has violated the border, Guangnan is suspicious of himself, and the Dongpu Ming people can be said to be struggling, and it is not a wise choice to lead the troops to the Luzon Ming court.
"You are just Chinese businessmen, not officials of the Ming Court, why do you want to speak for the Ming Court." Looking at Brother Ding, Chen Shangchuan asked puzzled.
Brother Ding smiled bitterly and said: "We are indeed just a businessman, but we have received great favor from the Ming Court, if it were not for the Ming Court, we and the Chinese merchants in Luzon would have died under the butcher's knife of the Franco, so seeing the suffering of the people of Dongpu today, it is inevitable that they will feel the same way, so they persuaded the general to return to the Ming Court." Dinggo said.
"I have the same intention, but I need to discuss it with my subordinates." Chen Shangchuan Road.
"Okay." Ding Ge didn't persuade again.
"It's been a month since I came to Zhenla, and it's time for my Minghai merchant to go back to Luzon, so don't leave it at that." Brother Ding clenched his fists and said towards Chen Shangchuan.
The merchants of the land and sea had now transported grain and grass to Dongpu, and since the originally expected war had not come, the thousands of stone of military rations prepared for the war were useless.
Wang Li of Luhai heard that Chen Shangchuan had the intention of returning to the Ming court, and hurriedly sent the thousands of stones of grain and grass to Chen Shangchuan.
These days Zhenla entered the country, the soldiers raged for a month and a half, many villages and communities in Dongpu were destroyed, the fields were trampled by the soldiers, and a large number of towns and towns ran out of grain.
"Fortunately, it's still in the summer harvest, and this group of people can still collect some money, otherwise the people of Dongpu don't know how to spend this year." Wang Shi also sighed with emotion after hearing this.
After Xue Wenjing, the general of Liwu Town, escorted the Guangnan army out of Dongpu, he immediately led the army back to Meidi, after all, the Meidi army was empty now, and it was all up to Yang Yong's sailors to sit in the town.
Seeing that there was no war in Dongpu at this time, Xue Wenjing led the army to leave Dongpu and return to Meidi.
And Yang Yandi led the left and right battalions to personally assist the Dongpu Ming army to build the walled city to prevent the Zhenlapan people from attacking again.
The Minghai merchants left a few days later, and Wang Shi personally led an army to escort them to the coast of Jiading.
The eight Minghai merchant ships had been waiting here for more than two months, and they were all relieved to see that most of the Minghai merchants were unharmed.
And the Ming people escorted the sailors after this battle, but a small half of them were missing.
"Brother Lin, don't leave it at that." Wang Shi clenched his fists and said to Lin Xu.
Wang Shi was also grateful to this businessman who risked his life to help the Qianhai camp.
Of course, he already knew the true identities of Lin Xu and these Shang Gang guards.
"General Wang, I don't know when we will meet him this time, our Ming army died thirty-three people in Dongpu, and I hope the general can take care of one or two in the future." Lin Xu hugged his fists.
In this battle, the Ming army also paid the price of more than 30 deaths, and it was naturally impossible for these soldiers to be brought back to Luzon for burial, and they could only be buried in Dongpu on the spot.
"They died for the people of Dongpu, and the people of Dongpu will inevitably burn incense and worship in the future." Wang Shidao.
"That's very good."
When the Minghai merchant ship sailed out of the coast of Jiading and returned to Luzon.
A large naval division is also heading towards the area around Annam.
The naval warships led by Xiao Wu arrived in the southern area of Annam more than half a month after the Ming Sea merchants went to sea.
Due to the bumps on the road and the strong winds, they did not reach the coast of Jiading, but went directly to the mouth of the sea in Meidi.
The sudden arrival of the sailor warship naturally caught the Mei Akira off guard.
Yang Yong hurriedly assembled more than 50 naval warships along the coast to support.
But most of these warships were locally built small boats and wooden boats, which could be compared with the sailors of the Luzon Ming Dynasty.
"Don't panic, my lord, this is my Da Ming Shui Master." A land and sea merchant hurriedly stepped forward and said to Li Yong.
During these days, Lu Hai also sent some merchants to stay in Meidi, Wang Li followed Yang Yandi back to Meidi a few days ago, and was retained by Yang Yandi, so he stayed in Meidi for a few days.
"Oh, Luzon sailors!" Yang Yong was taken aback.
"Why are they here?" Looking at the hundreds of large ships and warships in front of him, Yang Yong was also panicked.
It's not that he hasn't seen so many warships, when he was in Nantou Guangnan before, the Ming people went to Guangnan with hundreds of warships with 3,000 soldiers.
But it was defected to Quang Nam, and after that, the warships were all scuttled by order of Quang Nam, and 3,000 soldiers walked to the realm of Chenla.
And the scale of the Luzon naval division encountered in Haikou today was no smaller than the scale of the naval division warships when Yang Yandi and Chen Shangchuan's combined forces defected to Guangnan before, which made Yang Yong a little panicked.
"My lord, I forgot, last month, Zhenla Fan withdrew his troops from Dongpu, presumably the Luzon Ming court sailors in front of him came to help the Dongpu Ming people." The land and sea merchant said.
Yang Yong only reacted at this time, indeed, if the Ming Court of Luzon heard that Dongpu was attacked and came to help, and the naval warships set off from Luzon and traveled to Zhenla in the South Seas, it would indeed take a while.
"Lord Yang led the officers and soldiers of Liwu Town to quell the battle in Dongpu, and now the Zhenla soldiers have returned to the firewood, or you can go up and talk to these Luzon sailor generals." Yang Yong stared at the land and sea merchant and said with a smile.
"It's okay, please send someone back to the United States immediately." The land-sea merchant hurriedly took a small boat to go.
