Zhu Gaoxu called Li Bin over and asked: "These days, there have been many clashes in the barracks, and many Vietnamese soldiers are dissatisfied, and even rise up to resist, and it is not a matter to be detained for a long time. ”

After defeating the Hu family, the Ming army successively captured nearly 100,000 surrendered Vietnamese troops.

As a result, as soon as Zhang Fu left, the local forces in Annam, represented by Jian Ding, Deng Xi, Ruan Shuai and others, rebelled, and these Vietnamese troops who returned home joined them one after another, thus plunging the Ming army into a long-term tug-of-war.

Li Bin really said: "Although the Vietnamese army is not in a good position, but because it is not familiar with our tactics, I think that the Vietnamese army has good combat strength, and it cannot be easily let go. ”

Li Bin is still very knowledgeable, when he first came to Annam, the Vietnamese army did not understand the tactics of the Ming army, and the Ming army also had more firearms, so the Vietnamese army was defeated and retreated, but after the Vietnamese army and the Ming army fought for a few years, the experience came out.

After more than ten years in history, the Ming army was entangled with the Vietnamese army here from time to time, and began to rout, in 1426, the Ming general Wang Tong led 100,000 troops in the battle of Cuidong and was defeated, only 50,000 people were killed, in 1427, the Ming general Liu Sheng took 100,000 soldiers to enter Annam again, and was defeated in the battle of Zhiling, and Liu Sheng was also killed.

After that, the Ming Dynasty completely abandoned Annam.

Therefore, Li Bin is very experienced, and he can see that the Vietnamese army has good combat strength, but now it is the first time to fight with the Ming army, and he is not familiar with the Ming army's fighting style.

Zhu Gaoxu asked: "What does the Marquis of Fengcheng mean?" ”

Li Bin looked left and right, there was no one around, his eyes showed a fierce look, and he stretched out his hand to make a gesture of wiping his head.

Zhu Gaoxu's heart moved slightly, Zhu Di originally set up the Fifth Army, and Li Bin was able to be the commander of the First Army, and he was really a character.

Li Bin's proposal was very much in line with Zhu Gaoxu's wishes, because he wanted to control Annan for a long time, and these 100,000 elite Vietnamese troops would definitely be eliminated.

How can it be the same as the original history, let them go back and let them raise troops again.

In the next ten years, the Ming army died on the battlefield of Annam, not to mention 200,000, so why bother.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled at this time: "Fengcheng Hou's words are exactly what I want. ”

Li Bin grinned.

"We can't do it too obviously, though." Zhu Gaoxu said: "Gaoxu has a better way. ”

"Please also ask King Han to solve your doubts." Li Bin said with a smile.

Of course, he knew that Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, was not as clumsy as he looked, and he was still very smart, but after hearing Zhu Gaoxu say it, he was still shocked.

Zhu Gaoxu asked him to take 50,000 Ming troops and 100,000 Vietnamese troops to the west of Annam, attack Nanzhangguo, and then pass through Nanzhangguo, and go to Mubang in Burma through the 800 Dadian military and civilian consolation envoys.

To put it simply, it is to start from Annam, go around to Mubang and Mengyang, and help Luchuan fight these two places.

The entire march route was about 1,800 miles, and most of it was over the mountains.

Li Bin's face turned green when he heard this.

Luchuan Sishi asked the Ming court to help fight Mu Bang and Mengyang, but the Ming court did not respond, but Zhu Gaoxu decided to do it.

And from the side of Annan, into Burma.

This is very difficult, if you rely only on the Ming army is not enough, many places are mountain roads, the Ming army is not good at it.

But the Vietnamese army was good at marching and fighting in the mountains, so Zhu Gaoxu asked Li Bin to take 100,000 Vietnamese troops.

The best result is that all the 100,000 Vietnamese soldiers should not come back, and it is better to die outside.

Li Bin's face turned red after hearing this, and he stammered a little when he spoke: "This trip is to go abroad to fight, I'm afraid I have to get permission from the imperial court, and I have traveled thousands of miles, and 50,000 brothers may not all come back alive?" ”

"He might have run that way, too." Zhu Gaoxu said quietly: "As long as the Marquis of Fengcheng can come back, rest assured, I will safely protect the local people who are familiar with the situation over there and safely protect the Marquis of Fengcheng back to China." ”

Hiss, Li Bin gasped.

Zhu Gaoxu took the excuse of looking for Jianwen very handy, and said that he was looking for Jianwen, but the emperor must have been very happy to hear it.

And listening to him, it doesn't matter whether the 50,000 Ming troops come back or not.

Li Bin and Zhu Gaochu got along very well during the Jing disaster, and they had a feeling of heroism, and he felt that Zhu Gaochu had a rough appearance, but he was actually quite gentle, and now he found out that Zhu Gaochu was really ruthless.

Thinking of Zhu Gaoxu sending Chen Xu out, Zhang Fu's henchmen will be sent out, he has a faint premonition of what Zhu Gaoxu wants to do.

The Ming Emperor's nearly 300,000 troops here were to be shattered by Zhu Gaoxu.

Li Bin's face turned red and he was silent.

Zhu Gaoxu knew that people like Li Bin were smart people and capable people.

After thinking about it, he said in a deep voice: "We also got along very well during the Jing disaster, and the Marquis of Fengcheng knew the ability of this king. ”

"This king has made great contributions, but he was sent by his father to a place like Yunnan where birds don't."

Li Bin's face turned even redder, and his heart was shocked.

He hurriedly said: "The situation is different now, and at that time, the King of Han had no chance of winning when he raised an army. ”

"I have my own arrangements, but I don't want to embarrass Fenghou City." Zhu Gaoxu said slowly: "Now I have the final say on the soldiers and horses in Annan, and you are also ordered to go to Burma, at least for a year or two, and what happens in the country in the future has nothing to do with the Marquis of Fengcheng." ”

"If I win, Fengcheng Gong will definitely be a great achievement, if I lose, Fengcheng Hou is not at fault, you were just acting on orders at that time."

Hiss, Li Bin gasped, and his face turned blue and white for a while.

Zhu Gaoxu will say this clearly, I ordered you to fight Burma, and you will definitely not be blamed in the future, you have led a large army to fight abroad for a year or two, and the dust in the country is almost settled, if I win, you will be the prince of the country.

It's a matter of sitting back and enjoying the results, and you can get a lot of success without help.

Li Bin lowered his head and still didn't speak, estimating that he was still assessing how much hope Zhu Gaoxu had for success.

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu had no choice but to say again: "The Marquis of Fengcheng is still not at ease, wait for the imperial decree to arrive, and then I will order in front of the generals, in the name of the holy decree, I will ensure that you are worry-free." ”

Li Bin looked up incredulously: "King Han can still tamper with the holy decree?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu smiled: "Things are man-made, as long as you have a heart, you can do anything." ”

Li Bin did not hesitate this time, and nodded: "If the King of Han can give orders in the name of the holy decree in front of the generals, Li Bin is willing to lead the troops there." ”

"Okay." Zhu Gaoxu said: "You now take 50,000 soldiers and horses, divide the Vietnamese army, and unify the 200 Vietnamese army with every 100 Ming troops, and prepare for the camp at any time." ”

Li Bin thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Under their propaganda, go out with the army, enjoy the salary, come back after the fight, and go home with the field." ”

The military spirit of the Vietnamese army must be appeased, so Zhu Gaoxu and Li Bin talked in detail and tricked them out of the country first.

Li Bin also said that there are many mountains and rivers west of Annam, and many horses and mules are needed to carry baggage, grain and grass.

Although Zhu Gaoxu planned to send all the 100,000 Vietnamese soldiers to die outside, Li Bin did not want to mourn too early, and wanted to bring the Ming army back as much as possible.

Zhu Gaoxu agreed one by one to give them all the horses and mules for transportation as much as possible.

Next, the Ming army separated the surrendered Vietnamese army, with 100 Ming troops, unified 200 Vietnamese troops, 50,000 Ming troops, and managed 100,000 Vietnamese troops.

In order to prevent the Vietnamese army from making trouble, according to Zhu Gaoxu's request, all the generals of the Vietnamese army, equivalent to more than 100 households in the Ming army, were dragged out and beheaded, and none of them were left.

Then from the ordinary low-level soldiers of the Vietnamese army, new generals were promoted.

Half of them were determined by the competition, and the other half was designated by the Ming army, so that the generals in the Vietnamese army were immediately divided into two factions.

Those selected by the competition, and those who were designated by the Ming army were pro-Ming factions.

And was designated by the Ming army, and the people who felt that they were selected by the competition looked down on themselves.

Before the expedition, the 100,000 Vietnamese soldiers were each given two taels of silver to show encouragement.

While the Ming army was adjusting and reorganizing the Vietnamese army and brainwashing them, Zhu Gaoxu received a letter from Chen Xu and learned that Saigon would still be a small fishing village, and the port had not been established.

But it didn't matter, Zhu Gaoxu immediately ordered the local people to be requisitioned and began to build Saigon Port.

At this time, the Ming army had just occupied the entire territory of Champa and was collecting wealth everywhere, and the scene of Shenglong began to be repeated in Annam and the whole country of Champa.

The locals helped Zhu Gaoxu desperately collect wealth, which was all his capital and salary for raising troops.

In order to prevent Annan from rebelling in the future, Zhu Gaoxu also made a lot of efforts.

First of all, 100,000 Vietnamese troops were sent out of the country and let them fight outside, so as to remove the biggest security hazard in the next few years.

Then Zhu Gaoxu hated one move after another, and Chen Xu and Li Bin were also dumbfounded.

In the name of Zhang Fu's attack, he took revenge on Annan and plundered the local wealth, and all officials and wealthy families were raided and even beheaded.

In Zhu Gaoxu's words, those who dared to rebel were the landlords, wealthy people, and officials, so after killing these people, it was stable.

Historically, after Zhang Fu left, it was the local officials and generals who immediately raised troops.

Now all the generals above the 100 household level have been killed, and all the officials have been beheaded, and this flame that can be ignited has almost been extinguished.

Chen Xu was also worried that the civil officials of the imperial court would know whether they would impeach the tyrannical and rude King of Han, and Zhu Gaoxu didn't want to pay attention to him.

After clearing out the soldiers and horses and the officials and soldiers of Annam, Zhu Gaoxu secretly ordered the natives to clear out all the royal families of Annam and Champ.

The second security hazard has been eliminated.

Then he found a few local people, who claimed to be members of the royal family, and temporarily cooperated with the Ming court to build a local fish and water situation.

Then Zhu Gaoxu decided to occupy all the iron ore, silver ore, coal mine and other mineral resources in Annan and Champa.

A new station was built on the edge of each mine, and more than 1,000 troops were stationed to defend it.

Tens of thousands of people were divided into this way.

There are many ships and few horses in Annam and Champa, and in history, the people of Annam can raise troops and rely on more boats, which is convenient to move.

After the Ming army captured Annam, it had counted more than 8,000 large and small ships in the whole country.

Zhu Gaoxu classified more than 100 materials into large ships, and all of them were required to be stationed on the coastal line near Haiphong Port. (The port of Haiphong was the largest port in Annam at this time).

All the shipyards and craftsmen in Annam were divided into two parts, and some were relocated to Sai Kung to build the Sai Kung Port and the Sai Kung Shipyard for Chu Gao Xu.

Part of it was relocated to Haiphong Port and expanded Haiphong Port.

In the future, there will be no shipbuilding in Annam, and if the people want to use ships, they can only buy them at the shipyards in Saigon and Haiphong Port.

Then the Yue people north of Thang Long moved to Yunnan, and some of the native people in Yunnan moved to Thang Long.

If there are no soldiers, no ships, and no mines in Annam, there will be no major resistance for at least a few years.
