Chapter 352: Ten Days, Ten Days to Capture...
Haiphong Port, Yazhong, Leng Bao County.
Zhu Di told Li Jin the news that Hepu County was about to be incorporated into the political envoy of Annanbu.
Li Jin was very excited about this, and for him, if he could hold Hepu County in his hands, it would be a tiger for the political envoy of Annanbu.
Originally, the traffic between Annan and Daming was very inconvenient.
The reason is simple, on the border between the north and south of Anbei, there are lush tropical rainforests.
If you want to connect Annam and Daming, you have to walk through the rainforest, but in this day and age, it is difficult to build a road in the rainforest.
Now that Hepu County is the connecting point, Li Jin is naturally overjoyed.
The main road from Ha Ph County to Hanoi still needs to be repaired, but there is no need to be in such a hurry.
It's just that in this way, Li Jin's plan for Southeast Asia will be carried out in advance.
After Zhu Di heard Li Jin's plan, he exclaimed loudly:
"If you attack Siam, once the emperor knows, I'm afraid we won't be happy!!"
"Who said we're going to attack Siam?"
Li Jin glanced at Zhu Di and asked rhetorically.
When Zhu Di heard this, he put his heart at ease, patted his chest and said happily:
"That's good, that's..."
"Let's go and conquer the city."
It's just that Zhu Di's words haven't been finished yet, but Li Jin's next sentence made him stupid.
"Occupy... Champa? ”
Zhu Di's eyes widened, his mouth opened wide, and even his speech was a little unclear.
"But Champa... Is it a vassal state of our Ming Dynasty?? ”
"What subject? He occupies the territory of our Daming, do you know? ”
Li Jin said confidently:
"Just a few months ago, when we were at war with Annan, we asked them to send troops to help, but they directly refused."
"But after we defeated the Annam army and occupied Hanoi, these people shamelessly jumped out and invaded the land of Annam."
"Annan has been the territory of China since ancient times, and it is unbearable for these Champs to dare to invade the territory of the Ming Dynasty."
"This official has decided that after the affairs of Hepu County and Annan are rectified, they will launch an attack on Champa to wash away the shame of the Ming Dynasty."
Seeing that Li Jin didn't seem to be joking, Zhu Di secretly swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help but ask:
"Dare to ask Lord Li, how much land did Zhancheng encroach on Annam?"
"Luoming Village."
"A village??? Just occupy a village, and you will destroy a country in the city? ”
Zhu Di's voice couldn't help but rise, and he looked at Li Jin in disbelief, he felt that his cerebellum had directly atrophied.
He really couldn't understand why Li Jin was so strong.
But Li Jin replied as a matter of course:
"Every inch of territory, every inch of blood, my Ming territory's territory is sacrosanct."
"Not to mention a village, even if it is an inch of territory, the official will make the people of the city pay the price of blood."
"Otherwise, if other small countries around it follow suit, wouldn't my Ming Dynasty's territory shrink day by day? This is absolutely unforgivable. ”
"Those who dare to offend my great tomorrow will be punished by the world!!"
Zhu Di stopped talking, he always thought he was a radical person, and now in front of Li Jin, he found that he was indeed a radical, and Li Jin was a conservative.
Because Li Jin must think that he is too conservative.
Damn, just because of a dispute in a village, he wants to destroy a whole country, I have to say, this is crazy.
Li Jin saw that Zhu Di was silent for a long time, and then opened his mouth again and ordered:
"You are in charge of this expedition, are you willing?"
Hearing that he finally had the right to lead the troops alone, Zhu Di was overjoyed, everything was left behind by him, and immediately agreed:
"Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely live up to my expectations."
Li Jin nodded with satisfaction, and then said:
"This official gave you 30,000 soldiers and horses, how long will you be able to take the city?"
"Three months."
Zhu Di stretched out three fingers, but Li Jin shook his head and said:
"Attacking from the sea, three months is too long."
"A month."
Zhu Di stretched out a finger again, but Li Jin shook his head again.
"Half a month?"
Li Jin smiled but did not speak.
Zhu Di knew that Li Jin was still dissatisfied, so he simply turned his heart sideways and said in a deep voice:
"Ten days, ten days to take the city!!"
Li Jin's eyes were shining, "There is no joke in the army!" ”
Zhu Di was completely out of the way at this moment, and said directly:
"I'm willing to make a military order."
"Okay, then I'll wait for General Huang's triumph again!!"
Li Jin bowed slightly to Zhu Di, "Lord Huang go down and prepare, send troops in a month, I hope that when the time comes, I will not delay my people of the Ming Dynasty and cultivate in Zhancheng." ”
"Don't worry, sir."
After Zhu Di finished speaking, he turned around and left, and his heart was extremely looking forward to this operation.
This is his first time leading troops into battle, and if he can win a big victory, he can add a brilliant stroke to his life resume.
And Li Jin looked at the back of Zhu Di leaving, and he was extremely satisfied.
Champa has a pleasant climate, most of it is plain, and it is connected to the water of Annam, which is an excellent place to live.
This kind of place must be firmly in the hands of the Ming Dynasty, so that the combination of Annam and Champa can become the granary of the Ming people.
It's just that Annan and Champa are not the end of Li Jin, this is just the starting point of Li Jin's territory.
Now that the whole of Southeast Asia is in a period of poverty and backwardness, it is the time for Li Jin to show his strength, if such a huge piece of cake slips away in front of him, it will be difficult for Li Jin to forgive himself.
Thinking of the smugness, the corners of Li Jin's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
"The Strait of Malacca, the province of India, don't worry, this official is coming soon!"
