Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 685 Undeclared War
"That's what the Kyushu Army told me." Lin Feng returned to the Siamese Palace and told King Basaiton the Kyushu Army's request for an excuse.

King Basaiton's face looked like he was constipated. If he agreed to lend a way to the Kyushu Army, it would be equivalent to allowing the Kyushu Army's troops to come and go in and out of his territory, and Siam would be equivalent to becoming a semi-colony.

But the problem is that Siam may not be able to beat the Kyushu fleet that came.

The kings, princes, nobles and monks of Siam were all ashen-faced, and they were all very dissatisfied with the Kyushu Army's proposal.

"What else did they say? If we use our treasure to redeem the city from them and ask them not to pass through our Siamese country, is it feasible?" King Basseton asked.

"They said that there are only two ways to agree or surrender, and there will be no peace talks in any other form." Lin Feng said.

"Too much deceit!" King Basseton knocked down the inkstone on the desk again and knocked down the incense burner.

"My lord, how should we deal with the unreasonable demands of the Kyushu army?" Lin Feng asked cautiously.

"You go down for the time being, I want to discuss with all the ministers." King Basaitong didn't want to get angry with Lin Feng, who was influential among overseas Chinese, and because Lin Feng was a descendant of Han people, he asked Lin Feng to step down.

"Yes." Lin Feng respectfully left the palace under the leadership of the palace guards.

Several of Lin Feng's followers have been waiting for Lin Feng anxiously outside.After Lin Feng came out, an old attendant whispered to Lin Feng: "Master, the king didn't bother you, did he?"

"It's not that I'm in trouble, but the king himself is in big trouble. Immediately arrange a carriage, and we will rush back to Pattani Mansion day and night." Lin Feng also whispered.

Seeing that the situation is not good, Lin Feng hurriedly left the turbulent Ayutthaya with his entourage, and rushed to Pattani, where the influence of Chinese businessmen was great.

The Nanyang Fleet has no intention of negotiating with Siam at all.Deng Qianlong looked at his pocket watch, it was about the same time, Lin Feng should have left Ayutthaya.

"Has each formation loaded with gunpowder?" Deng Qianlong asked.

"All ministries have been loaded." After the semaphore officer contacted several formations, he got confirmation.

"Has the Southern Conscript Corps landed yet?" Deng Qianlong asked again.

"They have already controlled the east bank, and they have just signaled to us that they are ready to attack Ayutthaya." The semaphore officer said again.

"Then—" Deng Qianlong took a deep breath, his decision will lead to the downfall of a dynasty that lasted hundreds of years, "Fleet attack!"

"All troops attack!"

"The first formation advances!"

One by one, the officers on the battleships pulled out their command sabers and raised them forward!

The huge sail was hoisted, and the helmsman gripped the rudder tightly.One by one, the navy soldiers were deployed on both sides of the deck with muskets. The artillerymen were already in place, and the machine gunners clenched the joysticks in their hands.The main sailing battleships such as the Daqin have deployed several hand-cranked machine guns to make up for the lack of close combat firepower.

On the north bank, Changyi landed with the [-]st Corps of South Conquest, and the Siamese soldiers stationed on the north bank dispersed.The Kyushu Army came too suddenly, and their army was too late to mobilize, and only a part of the defenders of Ayutthaya were stationed on the north bank.The infantry of the First Corps of Southern Conquest drove their horses, artillery and hand-cranked machine guns and marched towards the capital of Siam, which was close at hand.

The troop carriers dropped them at such a short distance. If the capital of Siam cannot be captured, then the Nanyang Fleet is not to blame.

The Siamese army did not expect that the Kyushu Army would suddenly launch an attack. They had not announced that they would reject the request of the Kyushu Army, and the Kyushu Army launched an attack directly!
The scrambled Siamese army officers and soldiers were in a state of desperation, preparing for battle on the deck like ants on a hot pot.Some small boats hurriedly adjusted their positions in the fleet, but instead collided with each other. There was also a fishing boat temporarily confiscated that bumped into its own warship, and then turned over.

The Siamese navy was in a mess, and the defenders deployed outside the city were also in chaos. Under the suppression of the infantry muskets of the Kyushu Army, they poured into the city with their hands and feet.

boom!boom!boom!Thick jets of water splashed, and the Nanyang Fleet launched intensive artillery strikes against the opposite Siamese Fleet!

A Siamese navy soldier on the deck watched the roaring shells fall from the sky and landed on the deck where he was. With a bang, a hole was smashed into the deck. The soldier couldn't stand stably and fell suddenly.

"The bilge is flooded!" The sailors and handymen in the cabin climbed out of the cabin in a panic.

Hundreds of naval guns from the Nanyang Fleet roared, making the residents in the big city terrified, and even the royal palace heard the muffled sound of the artillery.

"What happened?" King Basseton was frightened when he heard the sound of the artillery.He already had some bad premonitions in his heart.

After a while, a general ran over, sweating profusely: "The Kyushu Army is fighting without announcing it!"

"What!?" King Basaiton and a group of Siamese noble monks stood up, most of them were scared blank.

"Say it again!" King Bassetoon still couldn't believe it.

"The Kyushu army has launched an attack. They have already exchanged fire with our navy and land defenders..." General Siam lowered his voice as he spoke.

"It's rude for them to go to war without waiting for our reply!" King Basseton cried.

"Maybe they never thought that we would agree. I even suspect that they didn't want to attack Toungoo, but us." A monk said.

"It's abominable to be playing hooligans in a kingdom of heaven. Where's Lin Feng? He's a Han. Let him go to negotiate with the Kyushu Army. We are willing to give them an excuse so that they have no excuse to attack us!" King Basseton Said.

"When I entered the city just now, I saw Mr. Lin and his entourage leaving in a carriage..." This general obviously knew Lin Feng, who had great influence among Chinese merchants.

When King Basaitong heard that Lin Feng left Ayutthaya without stopping, he seemed to understand something, and he tightly grasped the chair of the throne: "I just drove away the Japanese merchants, but the Huaxia people came, and they are so ruthless. You follow me to see."

King Basseton rushed to the city wall with a group of nobles and king's guards, and witnessed the crushing of the Siamese Navy by the Nanyang Fleet.

After the Nanyang Fleet defeated the Siamese navy with long-distance bombardment, they inserted sail battleships into the Siamese navy to prevent the approaching Siamese warships. The artillery on the left and right sides fired simultaneously to destroy the approaching Siamese ships. The hand-cranked machine gun fired!
The soldiers of the Nanyang Fleet on the deck were condescending, muskets, machine guns, and artillery suppressed the small Siamese warship at the same time, and the dense firepower engulfed the deck of the Siamese warship and the Siamese soldiers on it in an instant!
