Seeing that Ma Dali was coming, Chun Hawang immediately changed his smiling face and said, "Minister Ma, you don't need to worry about this small matter, I can take care of it."
"It's not about solving the problem. I know that you intend to protect General Tongsi. In such a mood, maybe you can really get a fake person to fool us, so people must verify their authenticity, otherwise wouldn't it be a success? You made a joke of our Five-Star Army." Ma Dali said solemnly.
The Five Star Army is now waiting for Tongsi's arrival, and the time is limited.If even Ma Dali can't make sense here, people can't be sent to the Five-Star Army, and the war will continue. Chun Hawang can't afford such a big thing. He has no choice but to wave his hand and be taken out of the field The servant came back.
The servant was brought back and looked at Ma Dali in horror, and then the latter's voice sounded, "What did you just say, isn't this General Tong Si?"
"Well, I may have read it wrong." The servant seemed to know that the basket was too big, and there was a slight tremor in his voice at this moment. "Don't be afraid, just tell the truth, I can guarantee that no one will embarrass you if you tell the truth, not only that, I will take you by my side to protect your safety, how about it, this time you can tell the truth Is it?" Ma Dali made a promise in front of everyone.
The intention of protecting him was already very sincere. At this moment, the servant seemed to let go of all his worries. He first raised his head to look at the man in the prison car, and then stretched out his finger and said, "I am General Tongsi's servant. Naturally, he recognizes our general, but this person is really not our general."
"Are you sure?" Ma Dali suddenly raised his voice by one degree.
"Sure." The servant also said with a desperate look.Perhaps he also knew that his own life and safety had fallen into the hands of Ma Dali, if he didn't tell the truth, it would be a dead end, and he had no choice.
"Hmph." Ma Dali's cold snort reached Chunhawang's ears, immediately making his expression very ugly. "General Chun, I think I need an explanation."
Explain your paralysis.
Chunhawang really wanted to reply like this, but he didn't dare. Now that people are fighting for the sword and I'm for the fish, what else can he say when he is weak.Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough, and quickly raised the horsewhip in his hand, pulled it towards a soldier beside him, and shouted: "Say, who gave you the courage to make a fake for this general?" You came here to fool me, to fool your envoy, have you eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard?".
Well, the blame man just found one at random, and the matter disappeared immediately. Ma Dali and his group returned to the mission compound, and at the same time they went back together with the servant of the Tongsi Mansion.There must be such a person, and Chunhawang was thinking that it would be impossible to just find someone to fool him.
Chunhawang went to the palace with a constipated expression on his face.The errand was messed up, and he didn't know what to do next.But the thunder and fury that should have come did not happen. Perhaps the king Ilich also knew that after Xiangguo was imprisoned in the dungeon and sentenced to severe punishment, the general had to continue to use it if he didn't need it.
What's more, he knew about this matter, and there was no such thing as deceiving himself. "Post a notice that Tongsi is wanted in the whole city, people and places related to Xiangguo must be searched carefully, and rewards will be given, do you believe that a living person can fly into the sky?"
Yi Liqi got into the horns and directly linked Tong Si's disappearance with the Prime Minister Hammond.Facts have proved that the method is not correct, and naturally the correct result cannot be obtained.
Five days will come soon.Under Yang Chendong's premeditated plan, the army continued to march towards the direction of Bangkok.
All the way to the battle, the baptized alien soldiers in the killing field experienced fierce battles again and again. After 10 people were killed and injured, 10 people remained.But these [-] people definitely have the combat capability of a second-tier army.
More than 2 people were sacrificed in exchange for the defeat of the Siamese East Route Army.Originally 25 people, except those who were killed and captured, eventually 2 people fled back to Bangkok.Behind them is the main force of the 10,000+ five-star army led by Yang Chendong.
The North Route Army won the final score. Under the command and leadership of the Second Army Commander Luo Po, the Chief of Public Security Long Tienan, the Lao Provincial General He Guang and others, a battle with the Siamese Army General Ge Dan came. A battle of more than 20 people.
Chapter 51 The Choice of Mengwo
Gedan is worthy of being a first-rank general of the Siamese army. He is not only brave, but also has powerful commanding methods. He once brought a lot of threat and pressure to the five-star army assembled by various ethnic groups.However, when the two sides were evenly matched, two firearms divisions, the Second Lu Division and the Sixth Lu Division, were dispatched.The sound of cannon cleared the way, and the musket assault once again told the world what fire suppression is, and what is the huge difference between muskets and cold weapons.
Facing the surprise attack of the two elite cold front divisions, watching them stabbing like two sharp knives, Ge Dan was powerless but helpless.However, he did not choose to flee like other generals who were enemies with the Five-Star Army. Reached the saying that the general should have died on the battlefield.
When the news came that Xiangguo Hammod was taken into prison, perhaps Ge Dan knew that he had no way out.If he lost the battle and returned to the capital, with Chun Hawang's jealousy, maybe he will not end well, and even his family will be affected.That being the case, it would be better to die on the battlefield, at least to save the reputation and the family.
Gedan fought bloody battles and died heroically for his country.As soon as the news came out, the Northern Route Army was in complete disarray. Without its commander, facing the crazy onslaught of the Five-Star Army, they all retreated.It didn't take long for the heavy cities of Chiang Mai and Taunggyi in the north to be conquered one after another. In the end, only 30 of the 5 army fled back to Bangkok.
While launching a fierce counterattack from the east and north, the two divisions of the Haiyi Army in the south surrounded the heavy city of Pattaya again. With the help of artillery, they quickly broke through here. Another second-rank general, Mengwo, fled back to Bangkok with [-] soldiers. So far, the capital has fallen into an embarrassing situation of being surrounded on three sides.
In the city of Bangkok, 20 defeated soldiers quickly gathered, plus the original 40 elites and 25 newly organized recruits, the number reached nearly 12. Just from the perspective of military strength, it still surpassed the 5000 people of the Five-Star Army (East Route Army about 10, North Route Army nearly 2, and South Route Army less than [-]).
The rest is only superior in terms of numbers of troops. In terms of military spirit and fighting spirit, the Siamese army can be described as a mess.In fact, as early as the disclosure of Chunhawang's betrayal of Tongsi to the Five-Star Army for peace, the morale of the army and the people began to crumble.The poor King Ilici didn't want to think about how to restore this situation, but instead offered a huge reward, so that everyone knew about it. This only accelerated the time and process of their downfall.
If the mind is scattered, it is something that is useless to make more efforts.The mighty Siam Kingdom that originally entered the Ayutthaya period went from glory to extinction so quickly, and it took only half a year before and after. Apart from the fact that the territory of the Siam Kingdom is still too small and there is limited room to move, the other is the five-star The army's strategy is correct.
After discovering the opponent's strength, Yang Chendong also changed his strategy. The move of raising soldiers by fighting was undoubtedly correct. Then he grabbed the opponent's pigtails and used a person who had been forgotten by the opponent to attack the opponent. So as to disturb the opponent's morale and popular support, now it seems that it is also an excellent move.Of course, having a pig opponent like Chun Hawang also added a lot of points to the smooth progress of things.
Bangkok, the capital of Siam.
The eight gates leading to the outside world were all closed, and the gates of the outer city and the inner city were filled with Siamese soldiers.Looking at it from a distance, it was dark, but looking closer, it was not difficult to see the sadness and worry in their eyes.
Siam has a standing army of 80 and a reserve army of 20. It has only been more than half a year. Now more than half of them have been killed and injured, and there are only less than 40 remnants left. If you go deep into it, you can imagine what kind of situation they will have. mood.
Ha Chunwang was once again entrusted with important tasks. He became the general who defended the city, and Mengwo, who had escaped from the south, became the deputy general who defended the city. The two men commanded an army of 38 troops, but they could not see a little bit of it from their faces. meaning of joy.
"General Meng, what do you think?" On the top of the tower, Ha Chunwang, who was dressed in heavy armor, looked at the Five-Star Army below the city, who was also lined with camps. The corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching. Really decided to attack the city, with those advanced artillery and muskets, they couldn't stop it at all.
Mengwo is a standard seven-foot man, and he also has a certain ability to lead troops.It's just a pity that he was born at an untimely time, how could his big sword be the opponent of artillery and guns?Now being asked about it by Ha Chunwang, he just hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, and uttered three words with great difficulty - can't keep it.
"Yes, it is impossible to defend. Although there are 38 troops in the city, there are still 60 people. The daily consumption is huge. Now people are in chaos. Once the siege begins, no one will know Something will happen. If that’s the case, why don’t we negotiate peace while our army still has the strength.” It seemed to be talking to himself, and it seemed to be talking to Mengwo, in short, it was just one sentence, he didn’t want to He was ready to fight, he was ready for peace talks, and he hoped that Mengwo would take the initiative to take over the job.
Mengwo is a smart man, he can have today, besides his own efforts, there is another noble person who appreciates him, that is the captured Xiangguo Hamod.Now that something happened to the nobleman, it is already a miracle that he is not implicated, so how dare he bargain? "The general has an order, and the last general is willing to cooperate."
"Haha, okay, I'm not mistaken. I will leave the task of leaving the city for peace talks to you. Of course, I will also negotiate with the Five-Star Army mission in the city. Let's work together to turn the tide." Seeing Mengwo's real interest, Chunhawang was naturally happy.And the shaking at the corners of his eyes when he was happy showed his murderous intentions. Mengwo was recommended by Xiangguo. He would not reuse such a person. Instead, he would only find an opportunity to kill him, and as long as this If a mission of peace talks was not completed, he had a reason to do it.
Perhaps it was because of his feeling that Mengwo was so sensible. He knew that the chance of peace talks was slim now, but he still wanted to try the reason.
What happened next was a tragedy. Mengwo led a team of hundreds of people out of Bangkok and came to the Five-Star Army barracks, and then he was successfully instigated.The person who made the move was Yang Er, who had been following Yang Chendong all the time. According to the young master's plan, he first helped the other party analyze the situation, and especially talked about a lot of things that might happen in the future from the standpoint of Mengwo himself.Then he promised that as long as Mengwo was willing to surrender, not only would he be the general of Siam in the future, but also Hamad, the prime minister whose nobleman was imprisoned, could also be the vice-governor of Siam in the future.
Smart people naturally know how to choose, and Yang Er is so considerate of him, Meng Wo, who has nowhere to go, has no other choice.After staying in the five-star army barracks for five days, he returned to Bangkok City. He only said that the other party disliked him as a small official and needed more powerful people to negotiate, so he returned to his errand.
Mengwo was able to come back alive, which was beyond Chunhawang's expectation.After knowing the attitude of the Five-Star Army, he was completely discouraged. In short, he didn't have the guts to go to the Five-Star Army barracks for peace talks. He had lied to him about Tongsi before, so what should he say now?
The siege of the city by the Five Star Army is still going on, and it's just a real siege, and it doesn't mean to attack it all at once.After the initial fear, Ha Chunwang became lively again. He publicly stated that although the five-star army is strong, they still have no strength to withstand the city of Bangkok with nearly 40 troops. So don't panic, as long as time goes by, other surrounding countries and forces will definitely come forward, and things will always be resolved.
When Ha Chunwang's words came out, it really gave a dose of diazepam to the panicked hearts of the soldiers and civilians in the city, and everyone was no longer so afraid.But the streets began to become chaotic, especially the grain in the grain store doubled.There is no way, and no one knows how long this siege will last. People depend on food, so they always need to prepare more food.
This kind of behavior quickly plunged the city of Bangkok into an extremely embarrassing situation. No one attacked the city, and it was going to be chaotic from the inside. This really made people don't know what to say.
Yang Chendong has nothing to say, his attention has been divided now, and he is divided into Mindanao Island in the south and Yunnan in the north.
The siege of Mindanao has persisted for more than half a year, and the so-called king of the Philippines, Abu Bakr, has also been trapped in the capital for half a year. The long-term siege has highlighted the internal chaos, and it is only a matter of time before he is captured.
On the contrary, the changes in the land of Yunnan in the north are somewhat unexpected.Under the attack from both sides of Nanming and King Xiping, Zhu Huixun finally couldn't hold on, and then he did something that many people did not expect. He even contacted the Bangla Kingdom (that is, the Bengal) and asked them to send troops to help him Attack the troops of King Xiping, and promise that all the land and population captured will be handed over to the opponent, and he will not get any benefits.
In order to survive, Zhu Huixun did not hesitate to sell the interests of his ancestors and even the dignity of the Han people.
Such a good thing, Bangge Laguo was tempted.The so-called benefit is not to take advantage of the bastard, they really sent a general Rajiv, led [-] troops through the barren mountains, entered the important town of Jiali behind Yunnan, and launched a sudden blow.
As soon as the [-] Bengalis appeared, Wang Mubin of Xiping was caught off guard. Without any precautions, he repeatedly lost important towns such as Jiangtou City and Manmo City. After Mengding Mansion was lost, Mu Bin had no choice but to lead the army Facing the battle, Zhu Huixun took advantage of this opportunity to counterattack in one fell swoop. The Xiping King's Army was defeated and left its old nest, Kunming City, and fled to Chelisi. Afterwards, letters asking for help were sent to Nanming and the Five-Star Army.
Chapter 52 Save the Prime Minister
"This is courting death." After receiving the news, Yang Chendong looked at the contents of the telegram with anger in his eyes.
He admits that the appearance of his little butterfly has changed many things, but one thing has not changed, and that is the status of the Han people.Not only has it not declined, but it has been rising. Look at the Han people under the Yang family. Which one is not living with great dignity, and which one is not proud of being a Han?So much so that I don't know how many outstanding aliens want to join this group.
Regardless of Yang Chendong's attitude towards the Ming Dynasty, he has nothing to say to the Han people.Find ways to benefit them, improve their dignity and change their lives. Seeing that the results are getting bigger and bigger, as a descendant of Lao Zhu, Zhu Huixun did come up with a trick to lure wolves into the house. Homeless, an unknown number of Han Chinese will have nothing to eat, resulting in death.
Yang Chendong, who attaches great importance to the Han people, quickly ordered the headquarters of the Lu Qi Division Tiance Commander who stayed in Vietnam Province to rush to Lang Son immediately and rush forward for a hundred miles to meet all the homeless people under the war. Han people, and asked the provinces to send some of the surplus food to the Seventh Division, so as to ensure that none of the Han people who came over would have problems due to hunger.
With such a decision, I don't know how much financial and material resources will be wasted, but Yang Chendong resolutely did it.Living alone in this world, there is always some pursuit, some persistence, so why not pay some price for it?
Yang Chendong's words are orders, and must be fulfilled without compromise.When the telegram was sent out, all the provinces followed suit. "The telegram informs Ma Dali, Mengwo and the relevant intelligence personnel lurking in the city. I only give them five days. After five days, I will launch a general attack on Bangkok City."
Yang Chendong didn't want to wait any longer, although according to the current momentum, the besieged Bangkok city would be self-defeating due to lack of food within half a year at most.But the unexpected appearance of the Bangladeshi soldiers broke his plan and made him unable to wait any longer.
In the city of Bangkok, Mengwo is standing in the courtyard of his mansion.
