Chapter 16: The Turmoil of Returning Home

"General, the 1st Army of the Vietnamese Army has advanced to the north of Vijaya."

"What?" Maya Kuiyu lined up more tables and got up.

"General, Your Majesty's messenger is here." Another soldier said.

"Come in, please." Maya Kuiyudo hurriedly said, "What instructions does Your Majesty have?" ”

"Your Majesty hopes that the general will lead the Vietnamese army to the place close to the coast, and the army and navy will jointly attack." The messenger said.

Maya Kuiyu nodded and said, "What other instructions does Your Majesty have?" ”

"Your Majesty said to end the war as soon as possible, even if nothing is gained." The Messenger said.

"What?" Maya Kuiyudo was angry that there had already been dozens of casualties on the border, and now he wanted to end the war without getting anything.

"General, this is His Majesty's order." The Messenger said.

"Okay." Maya Kuiyudo is like a deflated ball, after all, you really can't be outside, and the monarch will not be subject to it. Moreover, this war also made him feel nervous, realizing that there was still a gap between the two sides.

After the messenger took his leave, Maya Kuiyudo divided his troops into two groups, one small force was responsible for leading the Vietnamese army to the shoreline, and the remaining large force was responsible for attacking the Vietnamese army from behind.

In the city of Vijaya, the Pengqiao arranged for craftsmen to start making artillery, in addition to their own navy, there was also an order for 300 guns from the Han Dynasty, and now they had to hurry up to build it, in addition, they also arranged for craftsmen who had studied in Yingtian and other craftsmen to work together to build a transport ship, and by the way, they would spread the technology they had learned. In addition, the company also arranged for translators to translate the ancient books they brought back, which was a huge translation project, because they had collected nearly 1,000 books, each of which needed to be translated before it could be used.

On the other hand, he sent an envoy to Pandulanga, asking Pandulanga to resume trade, since choosing trade to rejuvenate the country, the proportion of Champa's trade income has increased sharply, and the income has also increased by 2 times, and now the trade has been stopped, except for taxes, there is basically no other source of income, and the construction of the Natuna Islands requires a lot of money, after the cessation of trade, the treasury has been only in and out, so it is necessary to immediately start trade activities, and it is a big deal to go to the high seas.

The Natuna Islands have now been immigrated by 300 people and have begun to form small towns, the most spectacular of which is that 200 meters away from the port of Natuna, there are warehouses, which are invested and built by merchants, who of course also build houses here and build their own settlements in Natuna. After the investigation of the governor of the Natuna Islands, the island now lives nearly 2,000 people, nearly half of whom are Chinese from Guangdong, who have settled here, and most of the rest are immigrants from various countries in the South Seas to this island.

On October 15, the 21st year of Zheng, the Cham navy was ready to go, and the craftsmen replaced the original attack shells with explosive bombs, but this technology is not yet mature, and the proportion of the formula remains to be studied.

On October 16, the 21st year of Zheng, the news of the arrival of the occupation army came from the camp tent of the Vietnamese army, seeing that the enemy general Maya Kuiyuduo appeared in front of the camp tent of the Vietnamese army, the whole battalion of the Vietnamese army attacked, as long as Ma Yakuiyuduo was captured, not to mention the promotion and promotion, it could also hit the morale of the Cham and take the Cham in one fell swoop, but as everyone knows, this is a trap.
