In the winter of the third year of China, the capital of Linyi - Indra Buluo (now Cha buckwheat, Quang Nam Province, Vietnam) burst into flames, accompanied by the sound of crackling and burning, as well as the cries and shouts of killing that drifted in the wind.

Looking at the city of Indra, which had been engulfed in flames, Fan Buddha cursed with the most vicious words he knew, when did the Chinese people who were killed by heaven become so vicious? Since the Chinese people raised their troops the year before last, the Cham people (as the Linyi people call themselves) have been struggling to cope. At the beginning, the Cham people could also occupy some advantages with the sea fleet, because the Cham was located on the sea route, and the maritime trade occupied an important position in the Cham country, so the Cham fleet was also quite developed, and there were more fierce "sea people", and several northward incursions were also by land and water.

But as the Chinese fleet swarmed south, the Champa state's maritime superiority was gradually broken. Although the Cham people gritted their teeth and persevered, defending every inch of the sea frontier of the Cham country. However, the strong spirit could not resist the hundreds of seagoing ships that came in succession, could not resist the equally fierce Chinese Navy, and could not resist the huge productive forces represented behind the Chinese Navy.

After several naval battles, the two sides fought very fiercely, and the Cham country had a slight disadvantage in terms of ships and numbers, but after all, it was a maritime power in the South China Sea for hundreds of years, with rich experience, and it could barely support it; The Chinese Navy has a large number of soldiers, and has always taken the road of "regularization" and "systematization", which is completely different from the Cham sailors, but after all, the Chinese Navy has only been established for more than 20 years, although the navy has been trained by wars and whaling ships in Korea and Changzhou, after all, it is a part of the personnel who can participate, and the Chinese Navy has expanded rapidly. The training of the soldiers still can't keep up. In this way, the Cham Navy Division and the Huaxia Navy fought evenly between each other.

But as soon as the time dragged on to the second half of the second year of Huaxia, the Cham sailors could not bear it. The Huaxia Navy's large-scale warships (offshore warships) sank one, but there would be ten more on the second day, and the number of sea-bound ships (far-sea warships) with sails increased day by day, and the small Cham country could not parry.

Originally, the Cham country was only that big. Even if he gritted his teeth and worked hard to build a ship, he didn't lose it quickly, and every desperate battle could only get a draw, and there was nothing to capture and replenish at all, but the Chinese Navy was extremely "vicious". Even if one or two ships are occasionally anchored, they would rather burn them than leave them to Cham. Three years after the war in China, the Cham country was already poor and exhausted.

Fan Fo, who couldn't withstand the pressure, begged the Huaxia army to surrender several times, but the Huaxia army refused. And unrelentingly, continue to storm. The tactics of the Huaxia Army were very simple, advancing by land and water. The land route was centered on the dragon weaving, and more than 20,000 Changzhou soldiers were gathered in the first year of China, while the waterway was centered on Xianglin Port, where a large number of ships and ships were concentrated to attack and harass the ports of Champa, and by the way, intercept the Champa sailors to go north.

Thinking of Xianglin Gang, Fan Buddha felt a fire in his heart. blamed himself for being obsessed with money for a while, and he was dizzy. During the Ninh Kham period, the Chinese merchants who traded with the Champa kingdom (at that time, they were still Beifu merchants) had a very "friendly" relationship with the Champa kingdom at that time, and they bought off the great nobles and ministers of the Champa country, and "leased" a large "wasteland" in Toulon Bay (now Da Nang Bay) with a large amount of money, and then began to build the port

The port of Toulon was originally only a commercial port, as a transit point for Chinese merchants in the South China Sea. Lin Lei brought a lot of tax revenue to the Cham country. The Chinese merchants soon used the excuse of expanding the berths and took advantage of the natural deep-water port of Toulon Bay to expand the port of Toulon several times at once, while Fan Fo and the noble ministers were still proud, thinking that the port had expanded. Taxes will also add a lot of money.

The Chinese merchant went on to say that in order to protect the valuable goods in the port. A simple walled city had to be built. Fan Buddha hesitated for several days in front of a pile of Chinese valuables, and finally couldn't resist the temptation and persuasion. Agreed to build a simple wooden fence barracks.

But the Chinese merchants bribed the overseer of the Cham officials, and then began construction along the treacherous hill. After decades of experience in "infrastructure construction", coupled with exchanges with Roman scholars who were proficient in architecture, the level of civil engineering was not at all imaginable by the Cham people. By the time the overseers had recovered from the gentleness of the Funan women in the merchant inns in the port, the Chinese merchants had already used the months to hire a large number of laborers, collect a large amount of wood and stone, and build a fortress castle.

At this time, Fan Fo didn't do it, he executed the officials who were negligent in their duties, and then asked the Chinese merchants to demolish the Toulon Castle, but the Chinese merchants did not agree to anything, but stepped up the reinforcement of the castle fortress and actively prepared for war. Annoyed and angry, Van Foo drove his army directly under the city of Toulon. It's not that he is not "reasonable", but that Toulinburg is less than 200 miles away from Indra, and if the Chinese built a military fortress here, Fan Buddha would not be very comfortable sleeping at night.

In the summer of the first year of Huaxia, when the Cham general Fan Danggen led thousands of people to count down in front of Toulon Castle, the Huaxia army directly transported nearly 10,000 Changzhou troops from Longbian, and directly fought with the Cham army.

In a fit of rage, Fan Fo immediately gathered his troops and horses to prepare for revenge, but he had to guard against the arrival of the Chinese army from the Jiuzhen County Mountain north of Hengshan (now the Jiushan Mountains in Vietnam), and the troops could not be dispatched for a while, so he spent a lot of money to ask for 10,000 reinforcements from his neighbors to the west, plus 15,000 soldiers and horses from his headquarters, to attack Toulon Fort together.

The Huaxia people brought thousands of Qingzhou soldiers one after another, adding up to more than 15,000 people. It may not be enough for these soldiers to destroy the Cham Po, but it is still more than enough to hold the fortress castle that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, with the harbor at its back. The Huaxia army not only repelled the combined forces of Cham and Zhubu, but also publicly announced that the port of Toulon was officially renamed Xianglin Port, and the city of Toulon was Xianglin City.

Fan Fo is going to understand the intentions of the Chinese people. In the Qin and Han dynasties, the Cham region was under the jurisdiction of Xianglin County, and in the late Han Dynasty, the son of Gongcao in Xianglin County killed the county order and established himself as the king, calling himself the Champa country, taking Brahmin as the state religion, and Xianglin City was also renamed Indra Bula. Now that the Chinese have newly built Xianglin City, isn't the intention obvious?

So Fan Fo officially declared war on Huaxia, and then Funan was also brought in one after another, and it was suddenly turned into a pot of porridge.

At the beginning of the battle. In addition to the superiority of the Huaxia army on the land route, it could only hold on to the Cham state by sea, barely maintaining the transportation of Xianglin Port and preventing the Cham fleet from heading north. But by the third year of China, the superiority of the Chinese navy became more and more obvious.

The autumn of the third year of China. In the waters of Haikou (the estuary of the Indra Bula River, present-day Hoi An, Vietnam), the Chinese Navy concentrated more than 500 warships and warships of the Third Fleet, the Fourth Fleet, and the First Fleet in the far sea, and engaged in a decisive battle with less than 300 seagoing ships of the remaining naval division of the Cham State.

The Huaxia Navy adopted the tactics of diagonal assault. The ships of the Cham Sailors were attacked one after another by using the ground collision angles of the coastal warships, dividing them into several parts, and then concentrating the ships and firepower, using the sailors' bows, sailors' crossbows (chain crossbows), bed crossbows, and artillery crossbows to carry out concentrated fire strikes on the ships of the Cham Sailors. Then they took advantage of the broadside battle to swarm up, kill all the Cham sailors, and then set a fire.

The battle lasted from morning to dusk, and Van Foo watched from the hill on the shore as more than 200 ships in his land were burned, then reduced to a pile of ashes and sunk into the sea, more than 70 ships were captured, and less than 20 ships were left with scars all over their bodies. fled back to the port of Haikou.

After gaining maritime superiority, the Huaxia Army became more and more arrogant, and the land route, which had been advancing slowly, adopted a new style of fighting under the cover of the navy. 10,000 Huaxia troops took the ships of the navy, bypassed the defense line of the Cham army, which was defended by the danger of Hengshan, and landed directly at Bijing Port in Ninan County, capturing Bijing City, an important support point of the Hengshan defense line, and cutting off the back road of more than 20,000 Cham troops.

Then 30,000 Huaxia troops were in the north and 10,000 Huaxia troops were in the south, and the two roads were flanked by the Hengshan defense line. After four days and four nights of continuous fighting, the 26,000 Cham army was finally defeated on all fronts, and the Hengshan defense line, which Fan Fo had painstakingly operated for several years, suddenly became a broken fence that leaked everywhere.

After breaking through the Hengshan defensive line, the Huaxia army swung southward and swept through Zhuwu (present-day Dong Hainan, Vietnam), Xijuan (present-day Quang Zhi Bei, Vietnam), and Lu Rong (present-day Quang Thuan, Vietnam) in just two months. Finally, the troops were stationed in Xianglin City. Three winters in China. Huan Shiqian, the governor of Jiaozhou, and Huo Sui, the governor of Guangzhou, arrived in Xianglin and officially issued an attack order. More than 50,000 Chinese troops besieged the city of Indra Buluo with great vigour.

Indra Bura has been painstakingly operated by the Champa country for hundreds of years, and it can be regarded as one of the best male cities in the South China Sea.

But when Fan Buddha saw that the Chinese people had erected more than ten wooden shelves as high as city towers outside the city, he kept muttering in his heart. He couldn't think of any tricks that the Huaxia people would play this time, but it took Huaxia less than three years to destroy the strength of the number one maritime power in the South China Sea, which made Fan Fu shudder.

That night, the dozen or so wooden shelves finally began to exert their power, and they made a sound of the earth shaking the mountains, and then a dozen meteors flew into the city of Indra Bura with their long orange tails. Meteors flew into Indra Bura one after another, causing the centuries-old city to burst into flames. The Chinese have no purpose, and they can fight wherever they want, and although Indra Bula City is the capital of Champa, it is not large, and most of the area is within the range of the projectile stone cannons fired at close range. Therefore, whether it is a common people's bungalow, or a nobleman's mansion, whether it is a magnificent palace or a solemn temple, as long as one or two fire oil bombs can form a fire ring of more than ten zhang, they will be swallowed by the fire in the whirring wind.

It was customary for the Chinese to burn the city of Indra for one night, and then at dawn they replaced it with stone bullets and concentrated fire on a section of the city wall, and after only an hour they broke a small section of the eastern city wall. The Huaxia Army, which had long been ready to attack, immediately used crossbowmen as a cover, and used the 3,000 Sendai soldiers, who were the most desperate in battle, as the vanguard, to attack this gap.

After panicking all night, the Cham army finally gathered together under the strict orders of Fan Fo, and blocked this gap with flesh and blood, blocking the arrows of the Huaxia army like a rainstorm in May, and blocking wave after wave of Sendai soldiers. But just as the flesh and blood were flying through this gap, an earth-shattering sound came from the north gate, and the entire north gate disappeared in the dust and fog in the sky. It turned out that under the cover of stone artillery, the Huaxia Army organized thousands of people to dig tunnels, reached the bottom of the north gate, and then buried 30 round wooden barrels with "test military products", and finally lit the fuse. The Huaxia Army did not expect that the 30 barrels of test military products would be so powerful, and after feeling a low vibration and a thunderous sound, they saw a huge cloud of dust rising into the sky, and then bricks and stones flew in the dust and mist, like a landslide and a crack, and like a volcano bursting out.

Under the supervision of the officers, the Huaxia army finally came back to its senses with half-deaf ears, and then lined up, holding weapons and rushing towards the north gate of Indra Buluo City, which had been reduced to ruins. Because Fan Buddha shifted the focus of defense to the east city, and the Cham defenders in the north city were already frightened by the sound just now, they thought that it was some kind of demon, and when they saw the Huaxia army rushing over with murderous energy, they had only one thought - flee quickly!

In the afternoon, the Huaxia army occupied the entire city of Indra, the palace, the nobles' mansions, and temples were looted, and countless gold and silver treasures were packed into wooden boxes by the Huaxia army, and then transported outside the city to be concentrated. More than 4,000 nobles, ministers, temple owners and their families were tied together with ropes by the Chinese army, and then led to the "prisoner of war camp" outside the city, and less than 500 people escorted Fan Buddha and his son Fan Huda to escape from the city of Indra.

"Your Majesty, the spies are back." The Minister of Guards, Fan Mi, said. This is Mount Jila, more than 100 miles away from the city of Indra, close to the border, and the exhausted Van Buddha Junchen decided to rest here for a day or two.

"Your Majesty, the Huaxia army is burning the city, and they want to turn the city of Indra into ruins!" When the spies who had obtained information about the city of Indra Bula, they fell to the ground and cried.

When Fan Buddha heard this, he hurriedly stumbled up to the top of the hill and looked in the direction of Indra Bura City, only to see an orange-red color beating in the black canopy in the southeast direction. Fan Buddha burst into tears, knelt on the ground in the direction of Indra, and began to weep bitterly.
