Come to Daming with military supplies

"Surround up. The [-]st, [-]nd and [-]rd divisions each send another regiment to block the southward exit of Mindanao. Without an order, an enemy ship is not allowed to leave." After making up his mind, Yang Chendong was not going to let Abu Bakr go. .He wants to keep all the silver on the island in this way.

"Yes." Gao Xiong quickly left after paying a military salute.Only two days later, the last gap to the outlying island was closed.In the early morning of the third day, the First Navy issued a general order to attack the entire army. For a while, the entire periphery of Mindanao was rumbling, and all the defensive measures dug before were wiped out in an instant.

Abu Bakr, who was still asleep, was awakened by bursts of gunfire, and then he heard a bad news. After half an hour of shelling, the five-star navy division had already started landing in the north.

"What's going on? Didn't we prepare a large number of defensive attacks? There are also hidden artillery, how can the Five-Star Army land on the island so smoothly?" Abu Bakr, who was wearing pajamas, grabbed the front The neckline of Aquino, who came to report the letter, yelled madly.

"Your Majesty, someone must have betrayed our military defense map. You know, there are quite a few people who know about this matter. Ever since the Five-Star Army besieged the island, people have been panicked. Many of them have connections with foreigners." .” Aquino, the general who Abu Bakr relied heavily on, said with a bitter expression on his face.At this moment, he wanted to say that it wasn't that he was incompetent, but that the enemy was too cunning.

He let go of his hand, and his eyes were a little dull. Abu Bakr knew that once the Five-Star Army landed on the island, it would be impossible for him to continue mining silver mines. It is also impossible to leave here safely.

"No, you can't just die like this, retreat immediately, retreat immediately." Abu Bakr seemed to wake up suddenly.The reason why he didn't escape before was because he still wanted to mine more silver mines, and he also wanted to use a lot of money to attract more people to fight against the Five-Star Army to buy time for himself to open mines.But what I didn't expect was that a sudden accident in the rear interrupted Yang Chendong's idea of ​​continuing fishing. He couldn't wait for him to finally do it, but hit Abu Bak

I was caught off guard.

Abu Bakr was about to retreat, and boxes of silver bullion that had been prepared earlier were lifted from the palace and transported to the nearby pier.And when the silver was only half shipped, another bad luck came, and a large number of warships flying the five-star flag appeared in the south, and their way of retreat was blocked.

"Rush out, rush out a bloody road. Anyone who can make a hole will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver, ten thousand taels!" The enraged Abu Bakr roared loudly. He didn't want to die, let alone the silver he got Snatch it away, so he issued a general order for a heavy reward.

The so-called great reward must have a brave man.After the reward order was issued, some desperadoes went straight to the warship at the pier. They wanted to take a gamble and take a chance.Just waiting to reach the pier, the scene in front of them shattered everyone's illusions. The huge pier couldn't even see a whole ship, and it was completely bombed to pieces.

Without warships, how to escape at sea?

When the news came back to Abu Bakr's ears again, he couldn't help but staggered for a while. He knew that this time he was too greedy and missed the time to escape.It's just that things have come to this point, and it's useless to say anything. He called the general Aquino and gave him the decision to assemble the army and fight the five-star navy on the island.

Abu Bakr and others once again withdrew to the city of Malalaq, the capital of the king, where they gathered [-] soldiers and more than [-] people. They prepared tung oil, stones, etc., and prepared There are [-] artillery pieces defending the four cities, and there is a tendency to fight the five-star army to the death.

It is worth mentioning that there are more than [-] Han people in the city. They are all the descendants of the Han people who were found from various islands under the order of Abu Bakr. Final negotiation weight.

When attacking Luzon Port, the soldiers of the garrison there would rather die in battle than fire a single shot at the local people. This incident has long been reported.Since the Five Star Army loves the people so much, there are five thousand Han people in the city, so they can't bombard their own people.

Abu Bakr retreated to the capital, and the already precarious outer defenses of Mindanao collapsed instantly. Many generals raised white flags, and the Haiyi Army successfully landed from various locations. For three days, it was occupied by naval soldiers riding around on bicycles.Many of these cities were captured without firing a shot.

It has only been more than a year since the establishment of the Great Philippine Kingdom. Without any foundation, the people can't be said to be loyal, and the soldiers can't be said to be loyal.Not to mention that Abu Bakr was extremely exploitative when he ruled, which made him alienated from the local people. It is impossible to point such a person to be loyal to him.

Yang Chendong led a thousand dragon guards on horseback, bypassed some important cities, and on the third day came to the place where the silver mine promoted by the intelligence department was located, that is, the western part of Mindanao, the later Cotabato region.

When I first came here, I could see quite a few local people shuttling here, and they would bring out pieces of silver mines with happy expressions on their faces.

"Presumptuous, surround yourself." Yang Er, who was following, saw so many silver mines about to be robbed.

Immediately furious and roaring loudly, a thousand dragon guards in black immediately surrounded and went up, looking like they were going to kill if they didn't put down the silver mine.

"Forget it, they will be the people under our rule in the future." Yang Chendong shook his head, he would not be soft on real enemies, but he would not be so cruel to unarmed people.

Long Wei let go of a road, and the local people scattered like birds and beasts.Longwei took control of this place and issued a strict order. If there are people spying here, they can only be killed without mercy.

Yang Chendong dismounted and walked into the silver mine.When I saw the serious damage caused by the random mining, I couldn't help but gasped in distress.Even Yang Er, who never took Yinliang seriously, couldn't help but said: "Master, this is too wasteful."

"Yes, it's too wasteful. The circulation of silver is inherently wasted, and the more it is used, the less it will be. In the long run, no matter how many silver mines there are, it will not help." Yang Chendong nodded in agreement.At this moment, he came up with the idea of ​​printing money by himself.

This kind of idea is not new, but has been considered before, but the time is not mature.

To say that silver is indeed a good thing, it is the best circulation thing after gold bars in any era and era.But why did it stop later?Isn't it because of too much consumption?Someone once did a survey. After a few years of one tael of silver, after continuous operation and friction, only half of the tael was left in the end. This is equivalent to shrinking wealth. .Replacing paper currency is the inevitable development trend in the future.

Today's Yang Chendong is no longer the scholar who had no soldiers and no power. He already has a lot of power in his hands, and the supply of Yang products has been in short supply. gold and silver.

"Yang Er, send someone to contact the nearest naval fighters and ask them to seal it up. When the silver mining team will show up and start mining, don't waste any money." Yang Chendong reached out and touched the already mined silver mine. One-fifth of the mountain was lost, and he said distressedly.

One day later, Yang Chendong left the mine with a thousand dragon guards, and another day later, he arrived at the city of Malalague.Here, Kaohsiung, the commander of the First Sea Army, has led the main force of the First Sea Division to prepare for the siege and siege of the city.

"How is the situation in the city?" Yang Chendong asked Kaohsiung in the camp five miles away from the city.

"Sixth Young Master, there are about 3 Filipino soldiers in the city, and more than [-] local people. Among them... there are more than [-] Han people." Kaohsiung hesitated when he said the last sentence I.

"There are also Han people?" Yang Chendong raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, obviously this result was beyond his expectation.

"Yes, they are all Han people and descendants of Han people on the entire archipelago. Perhaps Abu Bakr knew about our policies on treating the people, especially the Han people, so he deliberately prepared this move, in order to let us Throwing away the mouse." Kaohsiung who talked about these things was a little angry, obviously he was very indignant at Abu Bakr's shamelessness.

Chapter One Thousand and Twenty

Yang Chendong was also very angry at this behavior of using people as hostages, but this is not a child's play in war, in order to win and protect himself, anything is possible.He could not accuse Abu Bakr of anything, even if he could accuse him, it would be meaningless.More importantly, Laos, especially Cambodia, has been in a hurry. At this moment, he doesn't have much time to spend with the enemy here.

"Order to take away all the ships in Mindanao. The third sea division sent two regiments to guard the silver mines, and the other troops patrolled the sea. We must leave this Abu Bakr here until we solve the Siamese war. We will deal with them later." Since a hard attack is easy to hurt people, Yang Chendong simply changed his attack to a difficult one, and he wanted to see how long the Great Philippines could last after losing contact with the outside world.

Yang Chendong resolutely turned the siege into a besieged island, and dispatched the First Hai Division and the Second Hai Division in a way that he was not in a hurry to deal with the big Philippines.Afterwards, the Second Marine Division went straight to the Strait of Malacca and entered Chumphon Island, the connection point between the southern line of Malaga and Siam. The First Marine Division was ordered to go straight to the Gulf of Siam. Led to pose a threat to Siam on the southern front.

The First Hai Division and the Second Hai Division were dispatched, while Yang Chendong headed straight for Baima Port on the Zhanshen No. [-]. He wanted to bring a thousand black flags (Longwei) as the first batch of people to support this place. He wants to teach Siam a good lesson first.

......

Vientiane City, Laos Province.

Long Tienan caught Hai Qing, but unfortunately Du Lilong fled after hearing the news. He didn't hear the news that the food in Vientiane City was taken within the stipulated time, so he had a premonition that something was wrong and fled first.Fortunately, after the news spread, He Guang appeared.

He was injured by Hai Qing that day, but luckily that knife did not hit a key position. Although he could not kill the enemy on the battlefield in a short period of time, there is still no problem in cooperating with Luan Xiaochen in dispatching troops. The [-] Lao army, although its combat power is mediocre, only the combat power of a C-level army, is more or less a resistance force.

Yes, Hai Qing wanted to cooperate with Luan Xiaochen's work.It was rumored that Luan Xiaochen had been killed by Du Lilong. This was said by Hai Qing. At that time, many people were shocked when they heard it. How could this young governor and a man with a bright future be like this? Died young?

Facts have proved that Haiqing told a lie.Or maybe he was simply deceived by Du Lilong, and Luan Xiaochen didn't die at all.Not only that, when he reappeared, Luo Po, commander of the Second Army of Leng Feng Army, and commanders and fighters of the Second and Sixth Divisions followed him.

Coincidentally, Luan Xiaochen went to Vietnam Province to meet Commander Luo Po on the day he disappeared.Although there is no evidence that the movement of Siam is wrong, and there is no news from any intelligence agency, but the businessmen of Siam have not taken goods from Laos Province for two months, which is indeed genuine.Not only that, but the caravans sent by some Laotian provinces to Siam also disappeared.

After Luan Xiaochen found out about this small change, he didn't disturb others, but decided to go to the Second Army's headquarters and ask Luo Po for help. If anything happened, at least he was not without soldiers.

Considering that everything is my own guess, there is no

According to evidence, Luan Xiaochen did not disturb Yang Chendong and other colleagues from the Lao province, but went there privately.In order to prevent others from discovering his tracks, he intentionally left the soft sedan behind, and dispatched ten guards at home to escort the empty sedan to and from work by pretending to be Leng Feng. He never wanted to be ambushed by Du Lilong. What a stroke of luck.

Afterwards Hai Qing was arrested and it was confirmed that Siam was going to mobilize troops. Luan Xiaochen showed up with the Second Lu Army, and even arrived at Vientiane City one step ahead of General Gedan of the Siam Army.When waiting for the 20 soldiers of Siam to approach the city, what they saw was the densely packed Lengfeng soldiers in green uniforms standing on the city wall of Vientiane.

In the five-star army, a very obvious sign to see whether a team is strong is whether they are wearing formal clothes.For example, the First Army, the Second Army, and the Third Division of the Third Army, which are composed of cold front soldiers, usually wear army green clothing when training and fighting.

Another example is the cold front fighters of the First Navy and the Second Navy. They all have two sets of military uniforms, white and sky blue.In addition, there are not many teams that can have uniform uniforms. For example, the First Division of the Cavalry in the World, they naturally obtained this qualification by relying on their strong combat power, and there is also the new army that defended the city on the grassland. In the Ministry, they have made great military achievements because they have been out fighting all the year round, and many of them also have formal military uniforms.

In addition, even part of the New First Army, the newly formed New Second Army, and the Mobei Division have no right to wear formal attire.Not to mention the local third-level army like the Lao army, which has no such power.And now that there are so many soldiers in formal clothes suddenly appearing on the tower of Vientiane City, it goes without saying that they must not be local troops like the Laotian Army, but the main force of the Five-Star Army to help.

General Gedan, who saw this scene from a distance below the city, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and then he turned his head to Du Lilong who had escaped from the city and said, "Didn't you say that Vientiane City is in chaos? How is this going?"

"This... General, do you think it's the Lao Army pretending to be it?" For a moment, he couldn't think of any reason to answer, so Du Lilong simply said that the deer was the horse.

"Whether it's a fake or not, you'll know once you try it. Come and send two thousand troops, and try to fight first." Ge Dan couldn't be sure whether these were the main force of the five-star army or the local army, and everything had to be tried.Under his command, two thousand Siamese troops attacked on foot.

Needless to say the results of the experiment, when the two thousand Siamese troops came to a position 200 meters below the city, Xiao Feng, the commander of the Second Lu Division who was in charge of defending the city today, gave an order to shoot at the same time with two thousand soldiers of the next regiment. Kill most of them in one face-to-face, defeat the enemy and flee.

This result was like a blow to the Siamese army. Ge Dan's face was extremely ugly, and he immediately passed on his order: "Keep an eye on every move of the opponent's four gates at all times, and at the same time order [-] cavalry to stand by at any time. Fight, cover and kill me."

At this moment, Ge Dan had to face the facts, and also had to lower his requirements.Originally, they wanted to take the opportunity to occupy the Vientiane City, but now it seems that being able to hold back the main force of the five-star army here is already a great achievement.
