Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 674 Don't treat them as human beings
On the other side of Thanglong Palace is Fuliang Palace.

The small Red River Delta was divided into seven or eight state capitals by the Li Dynasty of Nanyue, and most of the state capitals in it were only the size of a county in the Central Plains.

Its purpose is obvious.

But the trick is not to be old or not, as long as it works.

When the Li Dynasty took over the world of the former Li Dynasty, it centralized power like Zhao Kuangyin and strengthened the weak branches.The original ten roads were divided into 24 roads, and later changed into four prefectures, thirteen states and three villages.

Thang Long Mansion is one of them, and Fu Liang Mansion is also one of them.Therefore, the importance of this place need not be overstated.

Ruan Xiaoqi and Hu Yanqing led the navy and army to defeat Youwuwei General Li Changxian, who was Li Changjie's younger brother, who hurriedly led his army back south.

Li Changjie passed away 16 years ago, and was posthumously awarded by Li Gande as "All Knows in the Inner Palace, Taiwei of the Inspection School, Pingzhang Military and State Important Affairs, and Yue Guogong", with tens of thousands of households, and his younger brother Li Changxian inherited the Marquis.However, although Li Changxian was able to become one of the first-class dignitaries of the Li Dynasty, he could not inherit all of Li Changjie's power.Otherwise, Li Gande would have become a puppet.

In fact, the current Taiwei of the Li Dynasty is Liu Qingtan, who has nothing to do with Li Changjie.And this is also an eunuch. A notable feature of the Li Dynasty's political system is that it will reuse middle officials (eunuchs), such as Li Changjie and Liu Qingtan.So, Tong Guan was reincarnated in the wrong place, he should have been born in South Vietnam.

Liu Qingtan is the same as Li Changjie. They were all decent officials and came from famous families. This shows that the middle officials of the Li Dynasty have a special status in their political map.

Perhaps it was influenced by the Southern Han Dynasty.The latter has a fine tradition of 'If you want to be an official, you must first leave the palace'.

After defeating Li Changxian's troops, Ruan Xiaoqi and Hu Yanqing, as well as Ruan Xiaowu, who had just arrived, did not dare to be careless. They already knew that the main force of the Li Dynasty had returned to the south one after another, and the real battle was coming. .

The Qi army went south first. The purpose was not to capture the thieves first but to capture the king first, but to besiege the city and mobilize reinforcements.Taking advantage of Thang Long Palace, a place where the South Vietnamese Army must save, all the main forces of the South Vietnamese Army going north were pulled back to the bank of the Red River.Then he defeated them in one fell swoop and knocked out the main force of South Vietnam.

Even Lu Qian didn't want to kill Li Gande right now, the latter is still useful, very useful.

He has been respected in South Vietnam for fifty years, with great influence and great reputation.When such a king is alive, he is a benchmark for Yue people.It can guide the Yue people from all over the country to resist the "invasion" of the Central Plains army.

In this way, can the Wang Qingjun, Zhong Xiangjun and Fang Lajun who flooded in later let go and fight.Lu Qian was thinking about the future.

And you must know that although Nanyue is small, it is a rich place.And Wang Qing, Zhong Xiang, Fang La and others must wish to dig three feet in order to raise more money and food.Now they can act recklessly in the territory of South Vietnam under the banner of suppressing civilian chaos. It is not like the mouse fell into the rice warehouse, and it couldn't be more comfortable.This is also a good opportunity to provoke conflicts between them.

First, Lu Qian just took the opportunity to attack Zhong Xiang and Wang Qing, and it would be great if someone else could take the blame;

Harm them well.Those aristocratic families, those officials and literati, should all die.

Ask him to say that Ming Chengzu had to launch troops against South Vietnam several times in the past, often using hundreds of thousands of troops.This is naturally due to Zhu Di's own reasons-the reason why the Ming army was able to successfully pacify South Vietnam at first was mainly because the Hu regime practiced harsh policies and the people were not attached to them. Water and fire, and promised to restore the sages of the descendants of the Chen family. Of course, this was welcomed by the people of South Vietnam, and it was also an act of righteousness.However, after the victory, he broke his promise and rashly decided to recover South Vietnam, but it was an obvious mistake.

You know, that is already 300 years later.South Vietnam has been an independent country for 500 years since Wu Quan in the Five Dynasties. Once it is directly under the management of China, it is bound to be resisted by people from all walks of life in South Vietnam. This is a matter of course.

But another important reason is that Zhu Di subconsciously regards the South Vietnamese as his own.

If the local gentry families are first eradicated or moved to other places, will anyone in South Vietnam still be able to launch a large-scale rebellion?He can throw Ming Yuzhen's son to Goryeo, so why can't he?
Who will know those great families after leaving South Vietnam.It would be like a fish leaving the water, eliminating future troubles in one fell swoop.

At the same time, the killing was too light.Zhang Fu beheaded thousands of people and built a Jingguan to subdue the Nanyue people.Don't you think this amount is too small?If you don't kill tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, why do you make people obedient?

For those savages with grass in their hearts, don't treat them as human beings.

Ming Chengzu was not prepared enough, but Emperor Lu was very well prepared. He was so cruel, he had already greeted Yang Lin and Shi Xiu, and told them to invite others to follow.There are so many Dingkou in Nan'an, isn't it a good place for a manpower firm!
Now the Central Plains is full of people.The Ministry of Industry is like a bottomless pit, and the dark hole swallows wave after wave of labor, and it will never be full.

And skip this gossip.Now Ruan Xiaoqi and Hu Yanqing have set foot in Fuliang Mansion.A cannon was unloaded from the warship, and then pulled to the front of the South Vietnamese army barracks.

This is a partial division that was separated from the defeated South Vietnamese Army of Li Changxian's department after it was reorganized.Staying on the north bank of the Red River is to watch the Qi army on the water.At that time, Ruan Xiaoqi and Hu Yanqing had already set up water villages on both sides of the Red River, and there was a tendency to continue to increase their troops.

Not long after, Ruan Xiaowu led the troops to arrive, and in fact, a part of Fang La's army had already arrived in Qiongzhou.

The South Vietnamese Army watched helplessly as the enemy set up the artillery positions in an orderly manner. During the days when the Qi Army Navy entered the Red River, the Yue people knew the power of the artillery.

They also have sailors.Although the warship is small and pitiful.Even if there is no artillery, the Nanyue Navy is the difference between a rabbit and a tiger compared with the Qi Army Navy.But adding firearms such as artillery and thunderbolts, that is the gap between ants and elephants.

Yue people worship elephants very much.

Whether it is the Thang Long Army on the south bank of the Red River or the army on the north bank of the river, whenever they start a fight with the Qi Army, they always use war elephants as the vanguard.

As a result, when they arrived at the Qi army, when the artillery fired, let alone a naked elephant, even an elephant in armor was still vulnerable to a blow.

If you hit it with a cannon, you will die if you hit it, and you will die if you rub it.

The thick body of an elephant was still pierced, smashed, and bloody.The loud sound and fire made them even more afraid.

Therefore, when he saw the Qi army who had been staying in the water village all the time, he suddenly threatened to come over with a cannon.The cowards in the South Vietnamese army camp dared not stick their heads out like frightened tortoises.

They didn't dare to escape, Ruan Xiaoqi was leading the troops watching from the side of the camp; but they didn't dare to fight back against the Qi army, so they could only shrink their heads like a tortoise and let it happen.How low the morale of the South Vietnamese soldiers will be can be seen by looking at the disdainful expressions of the Qi troops outside the city.

Even Hu Yanqing himself felt that the officers of the South Vietnamese soldiers inside were too shocking.

"Boom boom boom..."

The ten three-pound cannons, which are different from the tiger crouching cannons, were arranged one by one.The Qi army built artillery positions openly outside the Yue army camp.The South Vietnamese soldiers who had been hiding their heads were safe before the cannon fired, but once the cannon fired, their thin fences and walls, even if it was only three catties of shells, couldn't stop them at all.

"Boom boom boom—" the roar of the cannon sounded.

A series of cannons were fired in unison, and the iron-blue muzzles spewed out hot flames, and the rising white smoke enveloped the sky over the artillery positions.

As soon as the cannon was fired, each cannon retreated in unison, and the gun mounts rushed up the slope piled up behind the gun positions, and then slid down by themselves when the recoil was exhausted.There is also a facing slope in front of the gun emplacement, but it is much lower than the one behind.The cannon cart rushed up, and when it retreated, there was not much strength left.

This structure was naturally designed by Emperor Lu.

He didn't know what the real front-loading artillery position was like in history.Before crossing over, he also watched several war films of the Napoleonic era filmed by Europeans, and the reset of the cannons in them was pushed by people.Therefore, I don't know if the artillery positions in history are really like that.The current artillery position of the Qi army was designed out of thin air by him.

There are not many other benefits, the biggest advantage is labor saving.

Under the action of the two slopes, the cannon position can be restored in just a moment, and the angle of the muzzle can be adjusted slightly. After the gunpowder and iron bullets are loaded, the cannon can be fired again.The effect is very good.

It is also for this reason that the artillery positions of the Qi army must be strictly built, and they must not be sloppy at all.

The land collapsed and the trees were cracked, and the Vietnamese army barracks quickly turned into ruins under the concentrated bombardment of cannons.The fence of thigh-thin logs is useless at all, let alone an earthen wall.Under the shelling all morning, it has become unsightly.

"Crash--" A series of loud bangs came, and amidst the bangs, a section of earth wall of more than ten meters in front of the South Vietnamese army barracks collapsed amidst another burst of continuous bangs.

If the Emperor Lu himself was here, he could see the morale of the South Vietnamese army at this moment, which was already about to be cleared.

"Kill -" Hu Yanqing shouted with his head held high, and the murderous drums and horns sounded behind him.Amidst the thunderous roars, the Qi army surged into the South Vietnamese army camp where morale was demoralized and morale was shaken.

In the dilapidated fortress on the opposite side, countless South Vietnamese soldiers burst out like ants, holding back their last courage. The leading general was wearing armor and shouting loudly while holding a single knife.The South Vietnamese soldiers behind them collided fiercely with the Qi army rushing forward.The sound of killing shook the sky, and the artillery that had shown great power before had calmed down its anger.Right now the battle is nothing but hand-to-hand combat.

Hu Yanqing's martial arts are not ordinary, even if he can't compare with Hu Yanzhuo on land, it is still beyond the reach of ordinary people.Otherwise, Lu Qian would not have asked him to lead the Marine Corps.This person was able to organize the fleet to sail safely from Fuzhou to northern Hebei, which shows his organizational strength.Putting it in the navy and deploying warships to fight, he should be a good player.

However, Lu Qian understood that the naval fleet he wanted was never a force that could only fight in water battles, the Marine Corps was necessary.

Ruan Xiaoqi stood still, and he led another army to deploy behind the South Vietnamese army barracks. The only purpose was to prevent the South Vietnamese army inside from escaping early.If so, Huo Yan Luo will definitely teach them to be human again.

However, Hu Yanqing shouted and led his men to rush forward and fight with swords and guns. The Marines did not dare to say that they were definitely better than the Army, but facing the South Vietnamese soldiers in front of them, even the most timid Qi soldiers could pounce on them. .

Whether it was the successive victories of the Qi army entering South Vietnam or the useless performance of the South Vietnam soldiers, the whole Qi army despised them to the core.Now that they are fighting, will anyone be afraid of the person they have always despised?

Click on how those rotten soldiers in South Vietnam couldn't take care of themselves because of being beaten by the Qi army. Just look at Lu Qian here. When they got the report on the South Vietnam battle, less than a month had passed.

From Jiaozhou to Qilu, it is really going to cross the Central Plains.Qilu in early September has entered late autumn, and the chill of winter has arrived.

There was also news from the Northland that Zhongjing Road had been captured by Jurchen, and Jinzhou City had also been captured. Guo Yaoshi almost lost his life in the breakout battle.But these are not as good as the bad news that the Jurchens have marched into Nanjing Road.
