Chapter 281: The First Battle of Donghu


Xu Guangqi shook his head and said: "Of course I know that what your Majesty did is right.

It is the best for our Ming Dynasty and China.

I just hope that they will all submit, so that so many people will not die."

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Don't worry, Chief Assistant.

The focus of the comfort operation formulated by the staff is comfort, not massacre.

Unless it is a stubborn resistance to the end, we try to give priority to persuasion.

If we can do it, don't kill.

Too much blood It’s not what we want to see.”

Sun Chengzong said: "This is just a truth that you should understand, but you must not let soldiers or grassroots generals have such thoughts.

You must use your full strength to fight against lions and rabbits, and keep a little hand on the battlefield, for fear of backlash."

Lu Xiangsheng cupped his hands and said: "I would like to be taught.

The general direction can only be controlled by the commander-in-chief.

The army is a weapon of killing.

We will not instill in them the idea of ​​​​pitying the enemy."

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said: "Okay.

Now that Siam has surrendered, we can attack Nanzhang and Taungoo from both sides at the same time.

The Southern Military Region goes from the sea to the South Vietnam Kingdom, unites the South Vietnamese army to attack Nanzhang, and the Southwest Military Region directly attacks Dongguo.

The ocean-going fleet transported soldiers from the Southeast Military Region to Siam and attacked the two countries from south to north. " Lu Xiangsheng asked: "Your Majesty, what about Cambodia?"

Cambodia was called Zhenla in the Song Dynasty, Gan Bozhi in the Yuan Dynasty, Gan Wuzhe in the Ming Dynasty, and Cambodia after the Wanli Year.

This country has always been under the threat of powerful neighbors.

Both Siam and Annan have attacked Cambodia.

Siam also attacked Angkor, the capital of Cambodia, forcing it to move its capital to Phnom Penh.

However, Cambodia during the Ming Dynasty also included the southern Vietnam region in later generations.

It was considered a big country, yes, a very weak country.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Xu Guangqi and said "Let's occupy it by the way" without saying anything.

He thought of the demonic Khmer Rouge in later generations, and said: "Send people to Cambodia again and ask them to surrender.

We will protect it. " Xu Guangqi praised: "Your Majesty's holy heart is kind and kind, which is really a blessing to our Ming Dynasty and to all the vassal countries."

Zhu Youxiao took the compliment calmly and said with a smile: "Now that the four kingdoms have been settled, only the Kingdom of Java is left.

Once the kingdom is settled within five years, you can rest assured and sleep soundly next to me."

Sun Chuanting said: "It may take three years to stabilize the four countries, and then we can deal with the Dutch."

Sun Chengzong scolded: "Do you think the Dutch will watch us annexing various places step by step?

Be ready at any time to monitor the movements of the Dutch and prevent them from jumping over the wall in a hurry."

Zhu Youxiao said: "We need to be on guard against this, but if they take action first, we will have enough reason to deal with them.

Then it will be logical to add Java."

Li Yunzhao, who had just returned to China, was sent as an envoy to Cambodia.

Because of his mission to the Three Kingdoms, he had been promoted to the rank of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

This minister was not the left and right minister, so he was promoted to the fourth rank.

Compared with the fifth rank of the minister, he was promoted two levels. .

At that time, when he was going on a mission to the Three Kingdoms, most of the officials were unwilling to go, so Zhu Youxiao wanted to repay his efforts, so he gave him a heavy reward to further let everyone understand that those who do practical things will be valued.

Li Yunzhao's trip to Cambodia went very smoothly.

Longvik, the capital of Cambodia, has a developed and prosperous economy and has trade relations with many countries.

At this time, it is still a country with a large amount of coastal territory.

Now southern Vietnam is Cambodian territory, but South Vietnam is on one side and South Vietnam is on the other.

The biggest problem for Cambodians in Siam is that they don’t feel safe.

Therefore, the protection promised by the Ming Emperor made the Cambodian king extremely happy, and he immediately expressed his willingness to remain a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty forever.

After receiving the surrender from the King of Cambodia, the Ming Dynasty immediately ordered Zheng Zhilong's South China Sea Fleet to establish a sub-base of the Ming Dynasty's South China Sea Fleet in a place called Nha Trang to protect Cambodia's security.

In February of the eleventh year of the Apocalypse, Lu Qin first launched an attack on the Toungu Kingdom.

Long Zaitian's men dispersed among the White Guards and Guards to teach them to survive in Toungoo's forest environment.

Ma Xianglin led 3,000 white pole soldiers and 3,000 guardsmen as the vanguard to directly attack Mengsa City in the north of Toungoo.

Mengsa is a small city built on a mountain, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The Dongxu people looked at the Ming people below the city and felt that they had no way to attack the city, so they insulted the Ming troops at the top of the city and shouted: "Come up here and shoot us with arrows."

The city wall is very high.

The Dongxu people can control a large area in front of the city with bows and arrows, but the Ming army's bows and arrows basically have no way to shoot up.

Ma Xianglin took out his iron bow and shot an arrow, hitting a Dongyu soldier who exposed his buttocks to the Ming army.

He then drew the bow and shot two Dongyu soldiers in succession, one of whom actually fell off the city.

The people of Dongxu were shocked and hurriedly hid behind the city wall.

More than ten soldiers with white poles walked out from behind Ma Xianglin.

They took bows and arrows and shot upwards, but the arrows fell down before they could reach the city wall.

The people of Dongxu felt relieved now, knowing that only this monster could shoot onto the city wall.

Ma Xianglin patted his horse and walked to the back.

The Dongxu man stuck his head out again and started to curse.

The Guards lined up and walked to the line where the Toungoo people's bows and arrows could shoot.

The soldiers in the second row put the muskets on the shoulders of the soldiers in the first row.

The commander said "fire", and the smoke was quickly blown by the wind.

It blew away, and the Dongyu soldiers on the city wall fell to pieces.

The people of Dongxu were frightened by the iron pipe that could spit fire, and they hid behind the city wall together, never daring to poke their heads out again.

At this time, Ma Xianglin waved his hand, and a group of soldiers with white poles ran towards the city wall, followed closely by the guards holding firecrackers.

Because there was no moat, the white-pole soldiers ran directly to the city wall.

Because of the huge financial support of the Ming Dynasty, Qin Liangyu's white-armed soldiers reached an astonishing 25,000 people.

This time, Ma Xianglin brought the best of them.

The white soldier at the front jumped up and inserted a sharp iron bar in his hand into the gap in the city wall, and then put the hook on the front of the white gun on it.

The man behind climbed up and inserted another iron bar above.

In this way, it went upwards one by one, and soon it was inserted near the head of the city.

When the people in Dongxu heard the noise, some people stuck their heads out to see what was going on.

Several firecrackers were heard, followed by several screams, and the rest of the people no longer dared to put their heads out.

However, at this time, the white-armed soldiers had already inserted the iron bars.

Each of the white-armed soldiers hooked their guns on the iron bars and quickly climbed up to the top of the city.

When the Dongxu people saw the Ming army suddenly appearing at the top of the city, they were killed by white-armed soldiers before they could react, and a relatively safe area was quickly opened up at the top of the city.

A steady stream of white-armed soldiers jumped from the city wall into the city head, killing the people of Dongxu and staggering around.

A group of white-armed soldiers rushed from the city head to the city gate and opened the city gate
