Xiliang, an ordinary Zhenla farmer, has to go to a small town more than ten miles away every month to buy necessary daily necessities because the village where he is located is very remote.

But when he returned with a full load, he was stunned by the scene before him, there was a miserable scene everywhere, there was not a single living person in the village, and the open space at the head of the village was covered with headless corpses.

Xiliang anxiously ran home to make sure that the house was safe, and when he entered the door, he tripped and almost fell, and it was his father who could be distinguished from his clothes.

It's just that the old man has been dead for a long time, and he is still holding a firewood knife in his hand, and his head is gone.

Outside the house, a young man had a big hole in his stomach, and the woman in the house was lying in a pool of blood with her hair scattered.

"Who is it? Who is it? You come out for me! I'll kill you! ”

Chimping his wife's headless body, Xiliang roared angrily through the empty mountain village, but no one would answer him.

Xiliang buried the bodies of his father, wife and children, and took out his family heirloom steel arrowhead and his father's long knife from under the floor.

After that, Xiliang set fire to his house, and when he came to the cliff at the edge of the village, he found that several villages in the mountains were ablaze, and there was an unusual black smoke, and he secretly swore in his heart.

"It doesn't matter if they're humans or monsters, you must kill them all."

Because of the fact that they often did this, the Vietnamese officers and soldiers were very experienced, and they did not stay in a village for long.

After they had eaten and drunk, they would move on to the next village, sometimes burning it to the ground, sometimes not even bothering to do the aftermath, leaving only a small team to harvest the heads.

Zhenla, the county seat of Mingzinc.

After a few days of killing, Fan Zhu found his senses, he was sitting in the hall of the county government at this time, hugging the concubine of the county lord, while the county lord of Mingzin County knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Fan Zhu didn't care about the Zhenla official kneeling on the ground, and he didn't have much interest in the nephrite jade Wenxiang in his arms, he calculated that his army had expanded to 12,000 people, and his "battle merits" had also accumulated 20,000 levels

Is it time to move on to Kampong Son, or is it time to "triumphant"?

Fan Zhu didn't know why, he didn't have the certainty of winning the attack on Kampong Sun, maybe the wildfire came too strangely.

He never thought that the wildfire was man-made, because the weather in Chenla was rainy and humid, and if you wanted to set it on fire, you had to prepare combustibles in advance, but if it rained, everything would be in vain.

Therefore, for thousands of years, only the Ming Dynasty has used fire in the Zhenla Jiaozhi area.

Vietnam was known as Jiaozhi in ancient times, and the most ruthless beating of Vietnam in history was the Ming Dynasty, so the Ming Dynasty had a lot of weight in the hearts of the Vietnamese people.

It's not hard for cathars to set fire to tropical vegetation in the jungle, as they use fire oil.

Fan Zhu was still worried about how to choose, and the Buddhist bead bracelet in his hand suddenly broke off, and the prayer beads fell to the ground.

Fan Zhu looked at the rosary on the ground, and he made up his mind to let his subordinates kill the county zun, and if he did a big one, he would stop.

Kampong Son, St. Michael's Cathedral.

The priests finally found a solution in the sacred scriptures to solve the problem of the large number of remnants of the Chenla army.

That is to give Kampot to the remnants of the Chenla army to take charge, and Kampot province is a good place, adjacent to Kampong Than, relatively rich, and easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Guan Jin Pan and others have no reason to refuse, Kampot is blocked by mountains in the north, and the sea is in the south, and the only way is to bypass the Xiangshan mountain range and go to Kampong Sun, theoretically they can get this place, and they can completely establish a country within a country and live a worry-free life.

Guan Jin Pan himself felt that happiness had come too suddenly, and the leaders of the remnants of the Chenla army also thought that this proposal was too good, so they happily went to Kampot with a large group of men and horses to take over the territory.

The main reason why Franz ceded Kampot to these remnants of the defeated army was that it was almost impossible to use them to consume the strength of the Vietnamese, and even to strengthen the strength of the Vietnamese.

Franz believed that the country was easy to change and difficult to change, and these officials would soon find their identities, and when the time came, someone would beg Austria to rule them.

As for the so-called easy to defend and difficult to attack, it depends on whom, for the Vietnamese, it may be, but for Austria, it is completely possible to pass through the Kampong Son road, or take advantage of the sea advantage to force the landing, in short, Kampot Province is just a fat meat for Austria that can be eaten at any time.

What Franz did not expect, however, was that the Vietnamese generals would lead a large army into the ravine, and then drill to Kampot

Guan Jin Pan and others thought that under the banner of the Zhenla Heavenly Army, the officials and people of Kampot would definitely have tears in their eyes and welcome them.

However, the reality is that several county towns along the way did not open the door to the Zhenla Heavenly Army, and many of them even said that they only listened to the orders of the Son of Heaven in Vietnam, but the largest group of bandits in the vicinity sent condolences one after another.

Guan Jin Pan angrily slammed the worship post to the ground, knowing that it was better to stay in Kampong Xun as the bishop's assistant, and now he can only go to White Horse City to try his luck, after all, he has a concubine who is the aunt of White Horse Taishou.

This White Horse Taishou was very nostalgic, but he only let the official Jin Pan enter White Horse City with his accompanying escort.

Guan Jin Pan took out the edict he had made, but Bai Ma Taishou advised him to return to the Great Yue Kingdom as soon as possible and not to make unnecessary sacrifices.

The two sides did not speculate, and soon quarreled.

"Don't forget, you're a real person!" Guan Jin Pan roared angrily.

"So what? Our current kings are all chosen by the Vietnamese, what else can we do? ”

In fact, the Chenla people were quite dissatisfied with the Vietnamese elected Queen An Mei, believing that she was just a puppet of the Vietnamese and had no qualifications to inherit the throne of Chenla.

"I'm the edict of the first king"

Before Guan Jinpan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the other party.

"Do you think that if there is no proof of death, we will listen to you? Don't be presumptuous, what Lord Chalong did was right. We are no match for the Vietnamese at all, and in order to preserve our strength, it is necessary to make a false deal with the Vietnamese now, and when we have enough strength, we will turn against him."

Guan Jin Pan knew that he could not convince the other party, so he left the White Horse City, and just as he was thinking about how to settle his 8,000 men, news came that the Vietnamese had arrived.

"How many people? How would they know we were here? Guan Kim Phan asked eagerly, he had a bad premonition, could it be that the Austrians wanted to get rid of themselves by the hands of the Vietnamese? That's why I gave myself a good place of Kampot, so that everything can be explained

Heaven and earth conscience, Franz really didn't expect these two extreme situations to happen at the same time.

Fan Zhu on the other side was also muttering in his heart, he realized that he was as fast as the wind with his troops, unpredictable, how did these Zhenla people know that they were going to attack White Horse City? Who leaked the news, is it all predestined?

Fan Zhu took off the bracelet of Buddhist beads that had just been repaired and threw it on a stone, shouting loudly.

"Little ones, we are twice as many as them, even if the Buddha comes today, we can't save them!"

Vietnamese officers and soldiers shouted in unison, "People block and kill!" Buddha blocks and kills Buddha! ”
