If there were still people in this hall who were happy about his defeat, it would be Ruan Phuc Yu.

The eldest brother is dead, why does the second child inherit his father's position?

Can't he be the third child?

Ruan Fuyu doesn't feel that he is much worse than his second brother, why does he face everyone with the attitude of an heir all day long?

"This..."

Ruan Fulan's question hit the nail on the head, making Ruan Fulan feel at a loss.

"Is it ten thousand or eight thousand? It's okay, second brother, it's not easy for Da Ming to increase his troops, even if he can't defeat them, teach them a lesson, let them know that our Ruan clan is not easy to mess with! You say yes, right? Second brother?"

"Yes, yes..." Ruan Fulan's forehead was already sweating.

"How many casualties did the Ming army have? There's always a lot, right?"

"That's right, because the firearms of the Ming army are extremely sharp, our soldiers can't get close at all, so..." Ruan Fulan swallowed and said with difficulty.

"Can't get closer? It means that we have almost 20,000 dead, and not a single one of the Ming army has died!?" Ruan Fuyu's eyes widened.

Judging from the tone of the second brother, he felt that there would not be many people killed in the Ming army.

But when he said this, does it mean that not even a single Ming army was killed?

My mother, this battle is fought!

"Yes, yes!"

Ruan Fulan nodded and acknowledged.

He can't help it if he doesn't admit it, tens of thousands of soldiers below are watching it, and they can't hide it.

He nodded, and the entire hall was in an uproar.

Civil and military officials exchanged heads and talked about each other.

Everyone looked at him with a mixture of emotions, and Ruan Fuyu's surprised expression also had a hint of imperceptible sneer.

"Ah Lan, what you said is true?" Ruan Fuyuan, who had been sitting on the top seat for a long time and had not spoken, spoke slowly.

"Yes, father." Ruan Fulan nodded bitterly. "It's just because Daming's firearms are too sharp, we..."

"That's enough!"

Nguyen Phuc Nguyen interrupted his explanation.

"How many Ming troops are in the north at this time? What's going on now? Will it continue south?"

"According to the information obtained during the march, the Ming army was no more than 40,000 men in total, but it was a three-way army. There are Xing'anbo in the capital, Qianguo Gong in Yunnan, and Zheng Zhilong, the sea Kou who crisscrosses the sea, and he won Luzon last year. Although these people are strong in combat, after all, their numbers are small, and it is unlikely that they will continue to go south. But we have to guard against it!"

"Will there be more troops?"

"It's possible, but I'm afraid it will take a long time. I'm going to set up my defense and try to respond as early as I can."

"You? You should rest for a while."

Ruan Fuyuan took a deep look at him, slowly stood up, and walked out of the main hall.

As soon as he left, the noise in the hall became louder, and Ruan Fulan stood in place, deaf to everything around him. He knew that his father was disappointed in him.

Although it is not explicitly stated, the meaning of the manifestation is already very obvious.

Looking around, the officials who had always been close to him in the past became ambiguous one by one.

"Second brother, rest."

Nguyen Phuc walked over, patted him on the shoulder, laughed and walked away.

Naturally, the internal dispute within the Nguyen clan could not have reached Thang Long. ….

Since the occupation of Thang Long, Xu Zhi'an has not been idle for a day.

Either there was an uprising here, or there was an uprising, and driving them out as invaders became the main theme of Jiaozhi.

Fortunately, such days did not last long, half a month after the capture of Thang Long.

Thang Long came to a big man, Sun Chuanting.

Xu Zhi'an didn't expect His Majesty to send him, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as Sun Chuanting arrived in Thang Long, he entered the state of work.

Under Sun Chuanting's arrangement, Li Weiqi died and begged for nothing

Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty sent several letters to implore the great Emperor Chongzhen to agree to the merger of Jiaozhi into the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Chongzhen couldn't shirk it, so he had to issue an edict to crown him as the king and let him continue to be a mascot in Jiaozhi.

Subsequently, Sun Chuanting promulgated a series of regulations.

For example, sitting.

He stipulated that the same inch of the people had the obligation to report each other, and if there was a rebellion or a plot to rebel in the village, and the people in the village failed to find out, then the whole village would be punished.

The light ones were all pulled down by Luzon as slaves to open up the wasteland.

Heavy ones, beheaded on the spot.

Then there is the control of iron.

Only one kitchen knife is allowed for every three households, and it must be chained.

No one is allowed to hunt in the mountains in any form, let alone possess bows and arrows, javelins, traps and other hunting tools.

There will be people who come to inspect from time to time, and once discovered, all of them will be dealt with as the crime of treason. It is still taken away as slaves or beheaded.

There are many rules and regulations like this, and when everyone finds it difficult to implement, Sun Chuanting proves the feasibility of things with his own methods.

Kill.

As long as you are not honest, you will face one result: death.

Those who dare to rebel will be killed as long as they are caught.

The reason why Sun Chuanting is so ruthless is because Zhu Youzhen talked to him about this issue before he came.

Cochin is different from other places, and if you want to rule for a long time in the future, an iron fist in the early stage is necessary.

As long as they are scared and hurt to kill, they will know who can be the master of the house in the future, and they will be honest.

Sun Chuanting didn't know why His Majesty wanted to have Jiaozhi so much, and at the same time, he hated this group of guys so much. But he habitually followed Zhu Youzhen's will.

The heart must be ruthless and the wrist must be hard.

It's a big deal to want land and no people.

Only when the methods in the early stage are ruthless enough, and when they slowly change later, can they feel what is good.

History has fully shown that it is not enough to treat these people with blind gentleness.

It is also interesting to say that in this case, a large number of leading parties have emerged. Headed by Mo Bixian, Li Ba and others.

Sun Chuanting can be said to be handy in using these people, with these leading parties as a buffer in the middle, the contradictions between the people of Jiaozhi and the rulers of the Ming Dynasty have been greatly transferred to a certain extent. There are even some people who hate these leading parties more than the Ming people.

Soon after Sun Chuanting arrived, a group of officials selected by the imperial court came to Jiaozhi by boat.

In the next three to five years, they will work with the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty to govern Jiaozhi, and if they do a good job, they can also add a strong stroke to their resumes, which will provide a strong boost for future promotions.

People are realistic, and most of the officials come here to brush up their qualifications, and some are even squeezed out.

As for whether anyone will fall in love with this place, that's for later.

Under the deterrence of powerful force and the careful assistance of the party leading the way, everything went smoothly.

A month later, an army of 30,000 assembled at Zhengjiang.

Among them were 20,000 reinforcements and more than 10,000 soldiers originally brought by Xu Zhi'an.

As for the other 10,000, they were to join the First Fleet and launch an attack on Nguyen from the sea.
