nanming man

Chapter 1023
In October, just after the autumn harvest, the soldiers of the Wei army began to gather southward, preparing to drive the Ming army into the sea in one go.

Gao Yihuan originally wanted to wait until next year to deal with the Remnant Ming forces, but Zheng Sen's attack on Taiwan made Gao Yihuan unable to sit still, and decided to send troops ahead of time to wipe out Nanming.

Nanming is different from the Dutch. The Netherlands is thousands of miles away. There are not 1 people in Nanyang.

Nanming was entrenched in Guangdong and Fujian, with a population of nearly seventy-eight million. If any people were transported to Taiwan or Qiongzhou, it would become a confidant of the Great Wei.

At that time, Zheng Sen will have a boat and man, plus the Ming army is familiar with the coastal situation, and the loyal gentry on land will tip off the news. It will definitely be more difficult to deal with than the Japanese pirates.

In history, Zheng Chenggong used the people of Jinxia to fight against the Qing Dynasty for many years. After his death, the Zheng family persisted for decades.

The current situation in Nanming is much better than the situation when Zheng Sen had no choice but to conquer Taiwan. There are still more than [-] troops in the army alone.

If these people enter the sea and then attack the southeast with warships, it will be troublesome for the Wei army to defend the sea for thousands of miles.

Although it is impossible for Nanming to overthrow Gao Yihuan's rule if he retreats overseas, Great Wei will also lose the opportunity to solve Nanming.

The navy is the weakness of the Great Wei. The Zheng family has been on the sea for many years. The Ming Dynasty had no choice but to choose Zhao'an to eliminate the threat of pirates on the southeast coast. If Nanming retreated to the sea and hid on the island, Wei Jun would not say It is very difficult to find and drive the boat.

If the Nanming forces choose to transfer to Taiwan and Qiongzhou Island, there will be no peace in the Great Wei sea area.

Therefore, Gao Yihuan could only launch a war before Nanming made up his mind to go into exile overseas, annihilate the main force of Nanming, and the remaining Ming army retreated to Taiwan, and there would be no big waves.

At the beginning of October, Gao Yihuan appeared in Huguang and began to inspect the Wei army in Changsha and Hengzhou. The scouts of the Ming army found out the news and immediately reported to Guangzhou.

At this time, Zhu Cihong was anxious about the situation at sea. Since the Hongmaoyi provoked troubles at sea, the Spaniards entrenched in Luzon have also repeatedly attacked Ming Dynasty merchant ships, which made Zhu Cihong very annoyed.

The Spaniards dug tens of thousands of tons of silver in the Americas, and when they had money, they needed to consume it. However, Nanming was in a corner, and the supplies were scarce, which could not meet their needs. In order to trade with the Great Wei, they quickly chose to occupy the border Wei Guo.

Among the three western barbarians currently active in Nanyang, except for Portugal, which still maintains a very friendly relationship with Nanming, the Netherlands and Spain have all turned against Nanming under the instigation of Gao Yihuan.

This made Zhu Cihong very angry, Gao Yihuan colluded with foreign barbarians, and pigs and dogs were not as good as them.

Originally, Zhu Cihong was going to solve the sea problem first, but who knew that Zheng Chenggong had just captured Taiwan Island, surrounded the Dutch in the fortress, and Gao Yihuan was in Huguang.

At this time, the Dutch relied on their fortresses to stick to their tenacity, and it would take some time for Zheng Chenggong to solve them, but the appearance of Gao Yihuan let Zhu Cihong know that Wei Jun would not give him time.

……

In the endless Lingnan Mountains, a Guancheng stands among the mountains.

Under Guancheng, the camp of the Ming army spread out, and white tents, like white bags, spread all over the mountains and forests.

This is Shaozhou Prefecture, that is, the Shaoguan area, which is the only way to go south from Huguang to Guangzhou.

Zhu Cihong, escorted by hundreds of cavalry, came outside the camp of the Ming army. Huang Degong, Wang Yan and others led many generals out of the camp to meet him.

"I will pay my respects to Your Majesty!" Seeing Zhu Cihong's carriage approaching, all the people knelt down and saluted.

Zhu Cilang was not good at riding, so he came to Lingnan in a carriage. He raised the curtain of the carriage when he heard the sound, and was helped out of the carriage by the guards.

He glanced at the generals, his eyes fell on Huang Degong and Wang Yan, he quickly raised his hands and said: "Your family, please come up."

Everyone stood up, Zhu Cihong asked: "You two, how is the situation?"

Wang Yan turned sideways and said, "Your Majesty, let's talk about it!"

At present, a group of people surrounded Zhu Cihong and entered the big camp, and came to a large tent. After Zhu Cihong sat down, everyone filed in and stood on both sides. , the soldiers gathered in Hengyang, Changsha have exceeded 30!"

"30!" Zhu Cihong was startled, with a look of panic on his face, "The two Qings are sure to stop Wei Jun!"

Wang Yan and Huang Degong were silent for a moment, Huang Degong said honestly: "Your Majesty, I can only do my best!"

This is not sure, Zhu Cihong's face was gloomy, and Du Yinxi, who accompanied him, said: "Your Majesty, I think I can only ask Sun Kewang for help."

Zhu Cihong frowned, "Will Sun Kewang agree?"

Du Yinxi said: "If the Wei thieves invade Guangdong, it will be difficult for Sun Kewang to survive alone. I think you might as well give it a try."

……

Indochina Peninsula, Ayutthaya, the capital of Siam.

Under the city, the army tents spread, and the army of Dongyu Kingdom blocked the water around the city.

To the east of the military camp of the Toungoo Kingdom outside the city, on the east bank of the Chao Phraya River, there is another camp, which is the camp of the Great Zhou Army.

After the Wei army captured Nanjing, Sun Kewang judged that the morale of the Ming army was too low to fight, so he left the Ming army and retreated southward first.

The entry of more than a million people into the Indochina Peninsula greatly increased the power of the Han people, made Sun Kewang's regime more stable, and increased the strength of the Great Zhou Kingdom, but made the Toungoo Kingdom in the west even more uneasy.

Soon after Sun Kewang proclaimed himself emperor, the army of Dongyu Kingdom suddenly invaded Siam, preparing to take advantage of the opportunity of the Zhou army and the Wei army fighting to annex Siam, strengthen its strength, and resist the rise of the Great Zhou.

The Dongyu army attacked the capital of Siam with great force all the way. The king of Siam immediately asked for help from Da Zhou. Outside Luodu city.

At this time, Sun Kewang and many generals rode their horses to the river, and watched the Dongyu people's camp on the other side of the river with binoculars.

"Your Majesty, if our army is coming, the Toungoo people will definitely give up attacking the city and fight us decisively!" Liu Wenxiu reined in his horse and said.

Sun Kewang stared at the camp of the Toungoo people. There were shirtless soldiers with short hair cut back and forth. Their war statues neighed from time to time, and their strength was not weak.

Sun Kewang stepped down from the binoculars and said: "The Dongyu people are now in a dilemma, but I am not in a hurry. The army will stick to the camp for a few days before we talk about it."

Just as he was talking, a cavalry galloped over, dismounted from his horse in the distance, and ran over to report: "Your Majesty, the envoy of Nanming is begging to see you!"

"Nanming envoy?" Sun Kewang frowned slightly, "Do you know what happened?"

The cavalry raised their heads and replied, "It seems that they are here to ask for help, saying that the Wei army is attacking!"

Sun Kewang heard the words, the muscles on his face twitched, he was silent for a while, then suddenly he pulled the rein and shouted: "Return to the camp!"
