Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 700
Xiong Wencan took the officials of the Cochin Chief Secretary to the bottom of the Victory to meet his supreme officer, Chu Yun, with great anxiety.Those officials of the Chief Secretary of Cochin who did not know Chu Yun were even more uneasy. Many of them knew that the Kyushu Army was led by Chu Yun, but as small local officials, they had no chance to meet Chu Yun, even in places like Xiong Wencan. Master, I haven't seen it a few times.

"Master, why did you come to Nanyang in person?" Xiong Wencan greeted Chu Yun in fear.

"Why, don't you welcome me?" Chu Yun asked.

"This is not what my subordinates mean, but the military master, you should let your subordinates know in advance, so that your subordinates are ready to welcome you." Xiong Wencan said hastily.It has to be said that Chu Yun's sudden appearance almost caused him a heart attack, which was more serious than the arrival of the Zhili fleet itself.

"If this is not the case, how can I see a real Chief Secretary of Cochin? You should also know that throughout the ages, many local officials have often done some superficial engineering in order to perfuse their superiors." Chu Yun said.

"My subordinates dare not..." Xiong Wencan and a group of officials of the Cochin Chief Secretary were shocked. Some of them sweated profusely after knowing that it was Chu Yun, and beads of sweat dripped on the wooden boards of the pier.

"I haven't been to the front line in person for several years, and this time it's rare to come. I suddenly heard that the overseas Chinese uprising in the Malay Peninsula overthrew the Siamese regime in the Malay Peninsula. This is a good time for us to attack Nanyang in an all-round way. "Chu Yun patted Xiong Wencan on the shoulder, "You Cochin Chief Secretary has done a good job this year, but the next is the critical moment to attack Nanyang, and you need to make persistent efforts. When Nanyang is captured, the war here will be over." "

"Yes... the military lord has come from afar, should I arrange a residence for the military lord first?" Xiong Wencan asked cautiously.

"When arranging the residence, let's make a rough plan for an all-out attack on Nanyang." Chu Yun seemed more interested in annexing Nanyang.

"Master, please follow me." Xiong Wencan led the way for Chu Yun.

The officials of the Chief Secretary of Cochin carefully followed. This time, it was not just Chu Yun who arrived on the Victory, but also a group of high-ranking officials who followed Chu Yun. To be tall, so that the local officials of the Chief Secretary of Cochin did not even dare to take a breath.

"I don't know what other high-ranking officials the military lord brought here?" Xiong Wencan, as a local official recruited from the Ming Dynasty, knew little about the high-level officials in the capital formed by the Kyushu Army.

"Let them introduce themselves to you," Chu Yun said.

A woman who accompanied Chu Yun said: "Aila, the director of the intelligence department, has long heard that Mr. Xiong is going to the Guangdong and Guangxi regions to provide logistics support for the troops who attack the Zheng family and the Ruan family in Annan country. Later, he started to set up the Chief Secretary of Jiaozhi, In the past year, the rebellion in the Annan Kingdom was quelled, the aborigines who were close to us were wooed by gentle means, and the aborigines who resisted us were suppressed by force, so that the Chief Secretary of Cochin was able to settle down. Nanyang can have such a good situation now, to a certain extent, it takes All thanks to Master Xiong."

Director of the intelligence department...Xiong Wencan was taken aback again. This is a mysterious organization that many people fear. It not only targets the enemy, but also helps Chu Yun investigate his own people. A group of officials were investigated and dealt with. Many local propaganda envoys who abused their power were arrested by the Intelligence Department and were later sentenced or executed.It seems that the intelligence department's status is far inferior to that of the six civil service systems and the military officer system of the Ministry of the Army and the Naval Staff Department, but since the intelligence department is directly commanded by Chu Yun, it has a very special status.

"Secretary of the Navy Nelson"

"Chief of Staff Zhao Youguang."

"Director of Military Intelligence..."

"Director of the Supervision Department..."

Officials told their backgrounds one by one, which made Xiong Wencan and other Cochin officials feel unreal.Chu Yun directly brought half of the high-level officials in the capital, and there were also two intelligence chiefs, the Supervision Office that supervises all officials, not to mention a bunch of admirals and staff officers.The status of these people is not lower than that of Xiong Wencan.

Xiong Wencan led Chu Yun and the others to the Yamen of the Chief Secretary of Cochin, and drove a group of officials to another place to handle government affairs.

"Military lord and all the adults, please, the matter is in a hurry, and there is no time to tidy up the government office, so please take it easy." Xiong Wencan wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and said to everyone.

Chu Yun brought more than a dozen senior officials of the Kyushu Army, and they also brought their deputies, numbering as many as dozens of people.There are not so many places in the yamen of the Chief Secretary of Cochin, so Chu Yun only let the high-level officials and some admirals who are about to participate in the war plan to attack Nanyang in an all-round way.

"Get the map of Nanyang." Xiong Wencan said to his subordinates.

"Yes." The ordered official quickly took the first officer's map of Nanyang and spread it out on two wooden tables put together.

"Master, please take a look. This is the current situation in Nanyang. The area circled in red with a vermilion pen is the sphere of influence of our Kyushu Army in Nanyang." Xiong Wencan pointed to the red circled area on the map, and moved his finger to the Malay Peninsula. "This place is rather special. It is the area where the influence established by the Malay diaspora is located. Look at these red arrows again. It is the troops of the Malay diaspora attacking the Malay city-state and our army in Siam. And the black arrow , is the troops of Siam, Frangji and other enemies."

Xiong Wencan said, and put the three pen holders on the map of the three cities of Malacca, Batavia, and Manila: "These three places are the Malacca city of the Frangji people, and the Bada city of the Dutch people. Via City, and Manila City of the Spaniards. They have many armed merchant ships, and they may seek reinforcements from the West."

"Let's talk about the situation in Siam first. How long will it take for the Southern Conscript Corps to completely conquer Siam?" Chu Yun asked.

"According to the report from the front, the Southern Conscript Corps is actively preparing for a battle with the Siamese King Qin's army. They plan to wait for them to gather near Ayutthaya, wipe them out in one fell swoop, and then split up and occupy the northern part of Siam. As for the It may take years of hard work to completely conquer Siam, just like the Cochin Chief Secretary we set up in Annan, to completely conquer them, we need to start with cultural education." Xiong Wencan said.

"Is it possible for Toungoo to intervene in our battle to occupy Siam?" Chu Yun asked.

"It's not impossible. After the nest is overturned, there will be no eggs. If King Dongyu is the hero, he will definitely help Siam in the near future. Otherwise, after Siam is completely occupied, they will be the next one." Call the Kingdom." Xiong Wencan said.
