Kill!

Shendian Wei Qianhu Hanxing held a spear and led his men to insert the spear into the panel of the Semen knife cart, and then pushed the Semen knife cart back together.

This army has always maintained extremely high military quality. When they rushed into the city, they carried out crazy killings with a determination to avenge Yang Yong.

puff!

The spear stabbed, and the body of a soldier in front was penetrated, and a stream of blood spattered.

puff!

He raised his knife and slashed furiously. The body of a Li soldier in front was cut open, and a stream of blood spattered.

puff!

The arrow shot out in a beautiful parabola from behind. A soldier in front had an arrow between his eyebrows, and a line of blood exploded between his eyebrows.

In terms of individual soldier ability, Li Chao was no match for the Ming army. Not to mention that the Shendian Guards have always been a powerful coastal defense force, but now equipped with the best light armor, knives, and bows, they are invincible against the poorly equipped Li soldiers.

"General, run away!"

Seeing hundreds of fierce Ming troops pouring into the city to kill like crazy, a deep fear surged up from the soles of their shoes. The Li soldiers on top of the city couldn't believe their eyes.

Although they have always known that the neighboring country is a powerful dynasty, their Taizu finally established the country after repelling the Ming army. In addition, they have always preached that their Li army is invincible, so they always have the impression that the Ming army is useless. .

But from the scene in front of them, and the Ming army general who risked his life to prevent the sealing of the gate, they finally witnessed the truly powerful Ming army.

At this moment, he finally understood what Yelang was arrogant. Their Li Dynasty might be the overlord of Indochina, but they could not stop the torrent of steel in China.

When Zheng Chun saw the soldiers in front of him falling down one after another, he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

He is a genius of the Zheng family and has always been cultivated by the family. This time when he came to this pass, he was determined to build an iron wall.

His move was regarded as a joke at first. Even though the Hengshan Pass was an important pass connecting the north and the south, who could invade here? After all, they were the most powerful Li Dynasty.

But no one could have imagined that his move was actually a wise move, and it actually had a certain effect in this battle. But he didn't expect that the powerful Ming army could take down this copper and iron wall built by himself so easily.

puff! puff! puff!

Wherever the blade was directed, blood spattered.

Kang Chengen had also lost his temper. Thinking of the bravest Qianhu Yang Yong of the Shendian Guards who died heroically for the righteousness, he personally wielded his sword and carried out indiscriminate massacres in the pass.

"Rare..."

Li Bing wanted to beg for his life in the end, but the blade was ruthless, not to mention that Kang Chengen had already issued a massacre order.

puff!

At the end of the fight, Li Bing's corpses were everywhere inside and outside.

There were three hundred troops stationed at Hengshan Pass. Except for Zheng Chun who escaped from the opposite city gate with some Li soldiers, they all died under the butcher's knife of the Shendian Guards.

Although the Shendian Guards also suffered battle losses, when they were inspecting the defense projects at Hengshan Pass, they suddenly felt like they had found a treasure.

Just seeing Yang Yong, the divine guard of Qianhu who died on the Semen sword cart, everyone felt a high respect in their hearts. Fortunately, Yang Yong's sacrifice led to this easy victory.

The victory of the battle here was quickly reported, and it was sent to the capital by sea: "The Shendian Guards successfully captured Hengshan Pass, annihilated 234 enemies, and 38 soldiers including Qianhu Yang Yong died in the battle. Fortunately, they fulfilled their mission!" "

History from ancient times to the present has long proved that China has never lacked military spirit. As long as China is united as one, it can sweep away any force.

Although this battle can only be regarded as a small battle, it also created a new look for the Chinese army.

As soon as the news came out, the entire Indochina Peninsula was shaken.

The Ming army descended on the Hengshan Pass and cut the Li Dynasty in half in one fell swoop.

But everyone knew that the Ming army, which had been brewing for so long, could not just be satisfied with capturing this small pass. There must be bigger moves behind it.

"Return home, restore the motherland!"

"Drive out the Vietnamese thieves and return our rivers and mountains!"

"Give me back the royal city, and we will fight until death!"

After learning the news, King Gu Lai of Champa once again led his troops to invade Guangnan. At the same time, he called on the Cham people who had been forced to flee to the mountains or overseas over the years to return and restore their country.

Before Li Renxiao returned to Guangnan City, he learned that the defeated army under his command was coming again. He immediately sent an army to quell the rebellion, but they were completely wiped out.

The Champa army is indeed incomparable to the Li army, but the Ming Dynasty not only provided the Champa army with a large amount of newly eliminated ordnance, but also sent Qiongzhou Guards and Leizhou Guards to help Champa King Gu Lai regain the lost territory.

The performance of the Leizhou Guard soldiers in the battle can be described as "ferocious". Even the king of Champa has been respectful to the Leizhou Guard commanders since ancient times, but he was afraid that the opponent's sword would suddenly attack him.

In October in Beijing, the weather has turned cooler.

The leaves on Qionghua Island in Xiyuan turned yellow, mixed with red maple leaves and fragrant fruits. Suddenly, a gust of autumn wind carried a few yellow leaves swirling in the air and falling into the clear lake below.

Taiye Pond is a vast lake. The fish in the lake appear fatter in autumn, and their greedy temperament does not change. Many fish are lured by Yu Er into the waters near Tingchao Pavilion.

Zhu Youtang still has a fair and handsome face, but he looks more mature. He is sitting quietly in the fishing pavilion fishing, cherishing the last fishing opportunity this year.

Once winter arrives, not only will the lake be frozen, it will also be difficult for the fish in the lake to open their mouths. If you want to enjoy fishing, you will have to wait until next spring.

As the buoy sank, he lifted the rod with quick eyesight and quick hands, and a beautiful and plump crucian carp was hooked, and then the crucian carp fell heavily to the ground.

Liu Jin stepped forward to take the fish skillfully, and then threw the beautiful carp into the clear water basin next to him: "Your Majesty, this one is really fat and beautiful!"

Every fish is unique. Although Zhu Youtang clearly knew that Liu Jin was flattering him, the fish he caught seemed to go well, so he was very happy with this kind of flattery.

Wan An's beard is as white as snow, and his old face shows a kind of joy from the inside out at this moment, and he is slowly eating the fragrant grilled fish.

Originally, he wanted to accompany Zhu Youtang to fish together, so he practiced for a long time in the fish pond he renovated at home. However, after all, his old eyesight was hard to use, and he did not have Zhu Youtang's fishing skills.

Every time I see Zhu Youtang's "grabbing mouth", I think it's easy to grasp one by one. But when it's my turn to practice here, I realize that the young emperor in front of me is not simple.

Emperor Chenghua is actually a young man in his own eyes, but compared with this younger emperor, he has a feeling that the young emperor in front of him is more stable.

"When I first learned that pearl divers were repeatedly robbed and burned, I once wanted to reorganize the Shendian Guard and replace several high-level generals of the Shendian Guard. However, judging from this battle report, my thoughts at the time were simply blind and impulsive. , Fortunately, I didn't do anything to harm the good general!" Zhu Youtang put the fishing rod aside and seemed to express his feelings.

The latest military information has just been reported from Nanyang. The Shendian Guards successfully captured the Hengshan Pass as planned, and the ever-suspicious heart was relieved.

Although the strength of the Ming Dynasty completely overwhelmed the Li Dynasty, no matter how beautiful the cards in their hands were, players still needed to be cautious, and they had to win the host game and win beautifully.

Now that Shendianwei has successfully captured the Hengshan Pass, it can be said to be the first step towards victory.

"Your Majesty, you have the temperament to act later. I'm afraid it was just an idea at the time. We successfully captured the Hengshan Pass and divided the entire Annan Li Dynasty into two. Is there a large-scale invasion of Thang Long City from the southwest?" Wan An hurriedly stopped the chopsticks in his hand and asked curiously.

Zhu Youtang picked up the tea cup next to him, shook his head gently and said: "The next step is to attack the enemy, then attack the enemy, and then attack the city. Attacking the city is the last resort. The one who should be anxious now is the Li Dynasty. In Shen After the Dianwei captured the Hengshan Pass, Wang Yue and Wang Zhi should have chosen to take it easy first, as I have warned them before!"

"Your Majesty sent the Shendian Guards to seize the Hengshan Pass and prevent Li Renxiao's army from returning north. Isn't it the best time for us to launch a general attack?" Wan An swallowed the fish in his mouth and looked very confused.

Zhu Youtang blew the hot tea in the tea, but said in a serious manner: "Don't guess anything now. The time for the general attack has not yet come. Let's wait for the outcome of Southwest!"

Although some matters have already been explained to Wang Yue and Wang Zhi, after all, he lives in the capital thousands of miles away, and the specific implementation still needs to rely on their adaptability.

As for whether things will evolve according to their second step plan after the Shendian Guards capture the Hengshan Pass, this matter depends not only on Wang Zhi and Wang Yue, but also on which side God is on.

"Old minister, I obey!" Wan An smiled bitterly and saluted respectfully.

Zhu Youtang took a sip of tea and asked curiously: "What do you think about the cutting of corners on the river embankment in Fengqiu County?"

"If we follow the previous handling procedures, this kind of thing where local officials are making excuses should...should not be investigated in depth!" Wan An responded cautiously, putting his hands on his knees.

Zhu Youtang continued to hold the tea cup with his hand, and said with great interest: "You should know that I don't want to be a stupid emperor, so how did you decide?"

"After all, the person who made the report this time is just a small ninth-grade master. Although we must not disbelieve it, we cannot believe it easily! I thought that I should send a foreign minister from the Department of Water Resources of the Ministry of Industry to verify. I wonder what your majesty thinks?" Wan An said Candidates chosen by one's own votes.

Zhu Youtang drank the rest of the tea in the cup and frowned slightly: "Where is Liu Yuping, the doctor of the Dushui Division, now?"

Liu Haoyu presided over the construction of Daming City on Shenzhi Island and was able to be flexible during the construction process. Therefore, he was personally promoted to the doctor of the Water Capital Division by Zhu Youtang not long after he returned to the court.

"Your Majesty, Liu Zhongyu is responsible for dredging rivers in Shandong, and water transportation is related to the country. It is not appropriate to transfer him away to deal with this matter of catching wind and shadow!" Wan Anxin knew that Zhu Youtang's preferred candidate was Liu Zhongyu, so he seriously advised him.

Zhu Youtang put down the tea cup in his hand, but he knew that Wan'an's disposal was more reasonable. Now that autumn grain is going south, ensuring the smooth flow of the canal is the top priority.

In fact, he once wanted to promote maritime transportation, but he could not change it if he wanted to. After all, transportation also involves issues such as grain collection and storage, and the operation of water transportation has become very mature.

Zhu Youtang threw out the fishing rod again. Facing the gradually cooler weather, he knew that his time of hanging the hook was coming to an end, and I am afraid that he would spend more time this winter on creating the emperor's heir.

The capital is preparing to welcome winter, but Indochina is still feeling sultry.

Li Renxiao made the mistake of underestimating the enemy. Faced with the occupying army who was crazy about restoring the country and the unfathomable Ming army who was assisting him, he had no choice but to retreat into Guangnan City.

Guangnan City was actually the royal capital of Champa, and it was captured by Li Sicheng's army more than ten years ago.

It's just that the Li Dynasty people were very barbaric. After occupying a piece of land, they immediately massacred and expelled the local people, and then moved their citizens here.

The geographical environment of the royal capital of Champa is very advantageous, and this royal city has towering walls, so it is favored by the big families in the Li Dynasty, the most powerful of which is the Nguyen family.

Ruan Jin is the imperial envoy of Guangnan Province. He is a middle-aged fat man with an unattractive appearance. Although he is not tall and has a weak body, he has climbed to this prominent position by relying on his family status.

Facing the retreating army, Ruan Jin immediately dispatched food and settled Li Renxiao's army in the northeast corner of Guangnan City. At the same time, he notified the latest military situation in the north.

Although he also sent the Guangnan garrison to Hengshan Pass after learning the news, but faced with the Hengshan Pass that looked like a natural danger, he could only return without success.

Li Renxiao was Li Sicheng's confidant general. He accepted Ruan Jin's invitation and looked confident at the wine table: "There are only a few hundred people. Tomorrow I will send my generals to retake Hengshan Pass!"

"General Li, there is no need to worry about the Hengshan Pass!" Ruan Jin personally poured wine for Li Renxiao, but he smiled slightly.

Li Renxiao picked up the wine glass and was suddenly confused: "Why?"

"Drink this glass of wine first!" Ruan Jin smiled and said nothing, but gently raised his hand.

Li Renxiao drank it all in one gulp, and suddenly smiled and said: "You are afraid that the general will not care about Guangnan. It is indeed the general who made a mistake! But you can rest assured that the general will defeat the allied forces of Champa and the Ming Dynasty first. , then we will start from Hengshan Pass..."

Just as he was talking, his head was buzzing, and he suddenly felt dizzy, and then he looked up at Ruan Jin opposite in horror.

"General Li, you have been hit by cartilage powder, and now you can't go anywhere!" Ruan Jin took out his dagger from his waist and said with a slight smile.

Li Renxiao realized that Ruan Jin seemed to be planning to murder him, and looked in disbelief and said: "Ruan Jin, why are you doing this?"

"Li Sicheng wants to be an enemy of the Celestial Empire. This is his way to die. We, the Ruan clan, will not be buried with him!" Ruan Jin stood up from his stool and expressed his stance with a murderous intent in his eyes.

Li Renxiao found that he was completely powerless at this moment, and now he was a lamb to be slaughtered, but he asked angrily: "Didn't you say so earlier? Did the Ming Dynasty promise you great benefits?"

"Your guess is correct, but prepare to die!" Ruan Jin walked around behind Li Renxiao and raised the dagger in his hand.

Li Renxiao felt the murderous intention behind him, and immediately promised: "What the Ming Dynasty can give, our Li family can also give, don't be deceived by them!"

"You can't give it!" Ruan Jin shook his head gently.

Li Renxiao was already weak at this moment, but he still asked unwillingly: "What is it? How could we, the Li family, not be able to give it to you?"

"King of South Vietnam!" When Ruan Jin said these three words, the dagger in his hand pierced hard, and a stream of hot blood immediately spattered.
