How to do?

If you go out, you will die, if you don't go out, you will die immediately.

Seeing this, the Siamese king at the head became more and more impatient, and his panting became more and more heavy.

Just when he was about to order the execution, the leading ministers finally accepted the order.

They had to give in, and if it was later, they would really die on the spot.

However, the King of Siam was not satisfied at all, and immediately ordered:

"The army you lead must be stationed on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, and you are not allowed to take half a step back."

"I command an elite army of 20 to defend the city. If anyone dares to retreat, I will execute his family."

In an instant, all the princes and ministers of Siam who received the order were shocked, but they could also see at this moment that the King of Siam was already a little crazy.

At this moment, if they are arguing, not only will they die, but their family members will also die.

Immediately, despair appeared in the eyes of some people, and the King of Siam had driven them to a dead end.

However, the words of the King of Siam did not stop, and then he glanced at the leader of the Ministry of Rites.

The latter's heart trembled, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.

The next moment, the cold words of the King of Siam sounded in his ears:

"Since you can't control the army, then as an envoy, go to the army in the city gate in person, and ask me again, why did Zhu Youchen attack me in Siam?".

Chapter 373

Why attack Siam?

Such a question has always been something that the King of Siam couldn't figure out.

"My Siam has always been a vassal state of Ming Dynasty, and I offer sacrifices every year. Why did Zhu Youchen attack my Siam for no reason?"

Although this answer is no longer important at this moment, the King of Siam still wants to know.

It is even more necessary to use such things to delay the marching speed of Zheng Rui's army, so that more reinforcements can be gathered here in Bangkok.

At this moment, although Zheng Rui's army broke through the sixteen southern provinces in a row, the most important northern provinces of Siam, more than 30 provinces, were still in their hands.

These are the most important provinces in Siam.

Neither the population nor the wealth can be compared with the sixteen prefectures in the south.

At this moment, the King of Siam still has the confidence to resist in his heart, that is, the reinforcements from the remaining 30-odd provinces are continuously gathering towards Bangkok.

As long as he is given time, it is absolutely not a problem to gather a million troops here in Bangkok.

The reason why he was afraid was because Zheng Rui's army was advancing too fast.

It quickly terrified everyone. 26

However, at this moment, he drove all the civil and military ministers out to resist the coming army of Zheng Rui.

He estimated that this group of people would be useless, but at least they could hold off Zheng Rui's army for three days.

"There are still 20 troops outside the city. According to intelligence, the enemy has only less than 20 troops at this moment."

"The troops on both sides are evenly matched. With these people in the formation, with the aid of the Chao Phraya River, they can hold out for at least three days."

He doesn't expect to defeat the opposing army with the same strength, but if it's just defense, he still has confidence.

The King of Siam didn't know the horror of Zhu Youchen's army at all, and everything was just his own wishful thinking.

However, a minister who often deals with government affairs would not think so.

But the King of Siam just thought so, and even thought more.

"Three days is enough for reinforcements from other places to come here and continue to enter the battlefield."

"In this way, not only the city of Bangkok can be preserved, but also it is possible to launch a counterattack, or even annihilate the enemy."

"One more day of delay, the troops from Bangkok will be stronger by one more day."

Thinking of this, the Siamese King's heart surged with courage again, and a sharp light shone in his eyes again.

At the moment, the King of Siam looked at the Minister of Rites with piercing eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"If his army retreats at this moment, I will pretend that this has never happened. Otherwise, my Siamese army of one million is not easy to mess with."

Although he doesn't have an army of one million at the moment, the thirty prefectures combined can definitely make up such an army.

But such words, not to mention the minister of the Ministry of Rites, were dumbfounded, even the officials in the hall were dumbfounded.

He still thinks so?

He even wants to threaten Zhu Youchen's army?

All the princes and ministers looked at the King of Siam at this moment, and the same idea appeared in their minds.

His Majesty is crazy!

If it is not crazy, normal people will not think so at all.

They also hope to defeat the enemy, but they dare not think so.

Everyone knows that the king of Siam must rely on the reinforcements that are constantly gathering here.

However, reinforcements are one thing, and whether they can persist until reinforcements arrive is another.

Moreover, the words that the army is defeated like a mountain are really not simple words.

Not to mention the almost threatening words of the Queen of Siam. Such almost threatening words are purely a catastrophe for Siam!

It was absurd, unbelievable, and even felt a bone-chilling chill.

Zhu Youchen's army is so cruel, how can they tolerate such a threat?

At that time, the enemy's stormy attack will inevitably greet the army outside the city.

But they are outside the city.

hiss!

hiss!

All the princes and ministers' scalps tingled just thinking about it, their pupils shrank sharply, and goosebumps reappeared when they were pressed, and they couldn't stop it at all.

Is he letting us all die?

At this moment, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was even more terrified, his eyes were wide open, and he almost lost his breath in fright.

"This is killing me!!!"

On the way Zhu Youchen's army attacked, the King of Siam did not send envoys.

But the envoys who sent four or five waves in a row had no news at all. To let him go now is to make it clear that he is going to die, not to mention the second half of the threatening words.

At this moment, even though the Minister of Rites hadn't left yet, he didn't need to think about what the outcome would be.

But at this moment, he couldn't say anything, but the words of King Siam rang out again.

"If there is still no result, you don't have to come back."

Upon hearing this, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites' face turned ashen, and he completely collapsed on the ground.

The rest of the princes and ministers were breathless upon hearing the words.

The hall was silent.

Deathly silence.

You can hear even a needle drop on the ground.

The next moment, everyone felt a heavy feeling of sorrow for the death of the rabbit and the fox in their hearts.

At this moment, they had no intention of scolding the absurdity of the King of Siam at all.

The King of Siam was very satisfied with the result, and did not give these people the chance to stay any longer.

A big wave.

The brocade guards around the main hall immediately stepped forward and carried everyone out of the palace.

But the King of Siam didn't even look at this scene, standing on the imperial steps with his hands behind his back, his eyes flickering.

"Without this group of people holding back, Bangkok is absolutely impenetrable, but this alone is not enough, and other means are needed.".

Chapter 374

At this moment, the resplendent and resplendent hall became quiet again.

The brocade guards around stood silently, and the skylight outside the palace shone through the glass on the side.

The King of Siam was under the light, half of his body was hidden in the dark, and there was a sly smile on his invisible face.

At this moment, he doesn't have the ambition and talent just now, but he is more gloomy and cold than before, making people shudder at a glance.

How could he be a fool to be on the throne of Siam, and even hold the throne for so many years.

It's all his calculations.

Whether it is the princes and ministers below, or Zhu Youchen's army, they are all within his calculations.

"Just use the sword of Zhu Youzhu's army to clean up these nobles with big tails."

He was sober from beginning to end.

Siam has been at peace for a long time, and the power of the nobles in the country has become overwhelming, even to the point of threatening the imperial power.

However, although he wanted to change, he couldn't change at all.

The families of these people are all entrenched in the various provinces of Siam. If he does it rashly, it will not be his death. Siam will also be in turmoil and be swallowed up by the surrounding Burma.

So he kept silent.

However, this time Zhu Youzhao's menacing army made him see an opportunity, an opportunity to cleanse the entire Siamese aristocratic forces.

Even if he couldn't be uprooted, he could definitely injure most of the noble forces, and it would be smoother for him to start after that.

Zhu Youzhu's army has wiped out more than 20 aristocratic families in the south along the way.

This is also the reason why he can threaten everyone in the court at this moment.

He knew that all the nobles needed him more at this moment, and needed him to unite all the noble forces in Siam to resist Zhu Youchen's army together.

After all, the interests of nobles are also intertwined, and many families have hatred for each other.

Especially those aristocratic families who have lost their foundation, they can't wait to drag the rest of the families into the water at this moment in order to rebalance all the family power.

However, no one thought that the King of Siam planned to be the fisherman behind.

Thinking of this, King Siam couldn't help being a little excited, the blood in his whole body gradually felt a little boiling, and a smug look flashed across his face.

Such an approach is tantamount to taking millet from the tinder.

However, the King of Siam had already planned everything, even at the expense of Bangkok.

"Exchanging a city of Bangkok for all the family's vitality will be seriously injured!"

While speaking, Ba Song, the commander of Jinyiwei with an ordinary face, came in. He was wearing clothes similar to the flying fish suit of Ming Dynasty. He walked quickly to the King of Siam, knelt down and said:

"Your Majesty, everyone has been escorted out of the city."

Bassoon's voice is as dry and harsh as a saw pulling wood.

However, the smug look on the corner of Siam King's mouth widened instantly when he heard the words, but the eyes were cold and flickering. In his eyes, these people were already dead.

Neither Zhu Youchen's army nor the Jinyiwei in his hands will allow them to continue to live.

Thinking of this, the King of Siam lowered his eyes, waved his hand to signal Basong to stand up, and asked in a low voice, "How is the secret passage leading to the outside of the city prepared?"

Upon hearing this, Basong immediately replied seriously:

"The secret road leads directly to a residential house ten miles outside the city. There are already fifty confidant guards inside. All the horses are ready and ready to evacuate at any time."
