Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

Chapter 211 Chen Youliang's Panic

Therefore, all Annan people established in Dongxing must be turned into reliable people. As long as they are willing to be loyal to Daming, it is only natural to keep their lives and property.

"The next official obeys, the next official obeys!"

Dongxing comforter Li Zhixing said with a nod and bow.

For these Annan people, allegiance to Daming is equivalent to hugging a thigh.

Now everyone in the world knows that the Ming Dynasty is invincible. This time, Annan King Chen Wang may be in danger.

However, when Zhu Han waved his hand to let the An Nanguo official go out to help the Ming army control the order of Dongxing City, there was a voice of grief and indignation among the kneeling An Nanguo officials.

"Da Yue treats you well, but you still dare to betray your master for glory! I will fight you!"

I saw a young Annan official struggling like a mad dog in the hands of Ming army soldiers, as if he wanted to fight desperately with Li Zhixing and other Annan officials who took the initiative to cooperate.

Zhu Han immediately showed doubts and disdain, "Who is he?"

Li Zhixing who was on the side quickly said: "Your Highness, he is Chen Tingyan, the general judge of Dongxing Mansion, and he is Da Viet, oh no, he is the royal family of Annan!"

It turned out to be like this, Zhu Han immediately understood.

According to Zhu Han's understanding, King Annan's Chen family is a family that is extremely wary of outsiders.

In order to ensure that the Chen family can maintain its dominant position in Annan forever, and prevent the power of the country from falling into the hands of other outsiders.

The Annan royal family has always married within the Chen family.

That is, an incest royal family!
The Chen Tingyan in front of me is young, maybe about 20 years old, and she is already the general judge of Dongxing Mansion, that is, the second in command of Dongxing Mansion, so it can be seen that she has a lot of background.

"It turns out to be the royal family of Annan, Chen Tingyan. This king asks you, if you are allowed to surrender to my Ming Dynasty, and then let you be the king of Annan after the rebel Chen Wang is abolished, will you be willing?" Zhu Han asked.

Zhu Han's words were purely a test, and they were also for other people to read.

If Chen Tingyan surrendered and could ascend to the position of King Annan in one step, then the others must also perform well.

If Chen Tingyan refuses to submit, then kill him to frighten the minds of others.

"Pooh!"

"My father is King Hexing, and my mother is Princess Henglong. How can I bow my knees and surrender!"

Chen Tingyan is a tough one.

However, when Zhu Han heard this, he was disgusted.

In order to ensure that the power will not flow out, the Annan royal family has always used the same surname to marry close relatives!
"killed!"

"It's really bad luck!"

Zhu Han waved his hands impatiently, and several Ming soldiers immediately stepped forward and pushed Chen Tingyan to the ground.

Click!

Chen Tingyan, who was still yelling and scolding a second ago, immediately moved her head.

The other Annan officials present were taken aback.

After this, almost none of the officials in Dongxing City dared to resist any more. If anyone worked slowly, the Ming soldiers would stab them with their knives.

After one night, the Ming soldiers led by Zhu Han easily occupied Dongxing City, an important seaside city in Annan Kingdom.

Soldiers of the Ming army found a large number of imprisoned civilians in the prison in the city. They were all merchants and crew members who came to Annan to do business.

After more than half a month of torture, these thousands of Ming merchants were all furious.

Now that the officers and soldiers of Ming Dynasty have come, they naturally want to help the officers and soldiers vent their anger on their behalf.

"Your Highness, Annan's Shenglong Mansion doesn't have many soldiers and horses. Their large army is guarding against Daming at the northern pass. No one has thought that there will be an attack from the sea. Therefore, as long as 3000 soldiers approach the city, Chen Wang of Shenglong City will unstoppable!"

In Dongxing City, Shen Changhe was explaining the situation of An Nanguo to Zhu Han.

He is the shopkeeper of the Shen family firm in Suzhou in Shenglong City. His business was doing well, but he was suddenly thrown into prison by An Nanguo.

If the Ming officers and soldiers hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid he would die in the water prison of the Annan people in two days.

As a person who has been doing business in An Nanguo for several years, Shen Changhe knows the local situation well, so he naturally wants to serve in the army.

"Okay, 3000 people can also be drawn out!"

Zhu Han nodded slightly and said.

"However, the more people there are, the better. The villain can recruit some people, use the arsenal in Dongxing City to organize them, and help His Highness go to fight against the Annan thieves!" Shen Changhe said respectfully.

Zhu Han felt that if there were more troops, it could help the Ming soldiers to increase their marching speed, so he agreed.

Less than half a day later, Shen Changhe led three to four thousand people outside Zhu Han's residence.

"Why are there so many people? Isn't there only over 1000 Ming merchants in Dongxing City?" Zhu Han immediately became puzzled.

He originally thought that Shen Changhe would gather a few hundred people at most, but he never expected to recruit so many people.

"Your Highness, they are all strong men from the Annan Kingdom, and they live in poverty. I gave each of them fifty cents, and I recruited so many! There are many others, but I didn't want them, because the arsenal in Dongxing City was not enough. It is." Shen Changhe said.

Shen Changhe was born in the Shen Wansan family in Suzhou. He not only learned how to do business, he was also very experienced in how to organize family soldiers to defend against bandits and bandits.

After a day of preparation, Zhu Han's army doubled in size immediately.

Zhu Han left behind the main force of the Ming Fleet, commanded by Zhang Dingbian to sit in Dongxing City, while he himself led [-] soldiers including Lan Yu, and [-] Annan mercenaries recruited by Shen Changhe to march towards Shenglong City, the capital of Annan Kingdom.

At this time, Chen Wang, the Emperor of Dayue in Shenglong City, already knew the news that the Ming army had come from the sea.

However, he didn't panic too much.

"As long as we kill these Ming soldiers and let them know how powerful we are, then Da Ming will not dare to despise me, Da Yue!"

Chen Wang said confidently.

According to the information detected by An Nanguo, after the Ming army captured Dongxing City, it only took 6000 people to attack Thang Long City, the capital of Dayue.

In the eyes of Chen Wang and others, the Ming army is absolutely crazy!
You must know that although the main force of An Nanguo's army is on the northern border, there are still more than 2 troops in Thang Long City.

[-] against [-], no matter how you look at it, I have the advantage.

"Army attack!"

"Annihilate the enemy outside the capital!"

Chen Wang immediately decided to lead the army to fight against the invading Ming army.

An Nanguo's elite and rich area is near Shenglong City. If the Ming army is allowed to make disasters outside the city, even if Annanguo defeats the Ming army, it will suffer huge losses.

The signs of An Nanguo's army dispatching were quickly detected by the scouts of the Ming army.

"Hahaha, these monkeys seem to have come to die by themselves."

After Zhu Han heard the news, he was very happy immediately.

If they can fight in the wild with the An Nanguo army, the outcome will be determined quickly, and it will not take a lot of time like a siege.

"Since you took the initiative to die, you won't leave, and wait here for the people from An Nanguo to die!" Zhu Han said with a smile.

Lan Yu, Chen Baodao, Shen Changhe and others beside him all laughed.

Zhu Han looked at the "Annan traitor" Li Zhixing who was following him, "The front is a good place for fighting, what's the name?"

Li Zhixing quickly lowered his head and replied, "I tell Your Highness, the name ahead is Shili Bridge!"

"Ten Mile Bridge!?"

Zhu Han showed a meaningful smile.

. . .

Fighting against the Annan Army led by Annan King Chen Wang was simply a crush without any suspense.

As soon as the Ming army's muskets and artillery began to warm up, the Annan army on the opposite side was already in chaos.

Because, Annan King Chen Wang was seriously injured in a round of shelling by the Ming army, causing Annan's army to be in chaos.

The few elite cavalry of the Ming army led by Lan Yu immediately took advantage of the chaos to launch a surprise attack.

The Annan mercenaries led by Shen Changhe followed closely behind.

An Nan's army retreated all the way, and just after they retreated into Shenglong City, the Ming army rushed into the city gate after them.

A great battle broke out at the city gate.

The firearms in the hands of the Ming army immediately exerted a huge technological advantage.

In the face of powerful firearms, the resistance of Annan's army was futile.

Annan King Chen Wang lost blood and died within an hour after retreating into the city.

The entire city of Thang Long fell into chaos.

"Attack with fire!"

Zhu Han looked at the An Nanguo army that was still resisting in the city, and immediately issued an order.

At this time, many Annan tycoons and officials in Shenglong City had already surrendered to the Ming army.

Only the Annan royal family, the Chen family, retreated into the palace and refused to surrender.

It has to be said that although the Annan Wang Chen clan is somewhat ignorant and arrogant, Zhu Hangao can still take a look at their integrity.

It's just that no matter how hard one's backbone is, it can't win with strength.

Soon, the Ming army used the kerosene they carried to attack Annan Palace.

The raging flames immediately burned in the palace, and a large number of members of the Chen royal family wailed in despair.

The soldiers of the Ming army looked calm. They had already seen the power of kerosene.

But the Annan people around were all terrified!
The Ming army was so powerful that it only took two or three days to wipe out the powerful Annan royal family, the Chen family.

They knew that there was no longer any need for their Annan Kingdom to survive.

Wouldn't it be nice for him to be a powerful citizen of Ming Dynasty?
The fire burned for a day and a night, and burned all the Chen royal family to ashes.

Most of the entire Annan Kingdom surrendered to Zhu Han.

Even the An Nanguo generals stationed at the northern border, after knowing what happened in Shenglong City, they immediately turned against the water collectively.

They jointly killed the generals of the Chen family and the supervising army in the army, and then quickly sent people to surrender to His Royal Highness King Ying of the Ming Dynasty in Shenglong City.

In front of the ashes of the Thang Long Palace, Zhu Han is ordering the public execution of a group of remaining Annan traitors.

These people are all loyal to the Annan Chen royal family, and if they are not killed, it will not be conducive to future governance.

Moreover, these people are also nobles who have mastered a large amount of Annan's land and wealth.

If they are not killed, where will the money come to reward the Ming soldiers and the Annan people who surrendered?

As the ax fell again and again... the Annan royal family's power in Shenglong City was completely wiped out.

At this time, a large number of Annan officials and nobles knelt on the ground and presented to Zhu Han a memorial requesting the whole country to join the Ming Dynasty.

"Annan's place is temporarily not included in the territory of Daming, but managed by the Duhufu. You officials can enjoy the treatment of Daming nationals, but ordinary Annan people cannot enjoy it."

Zhu Han took the memorial and immediately rejected Annan's proposal to join Daming as a whole.

The current Ming Dynasty no longer practiced slavery and serfdom, but Annan was still a serfdom.

If all Annan people become citizens of Ming Dynasty, slavery will be abolished!

Without the serfs in Annan, it would mean losing the grain-producing area in Annan.

Therefore, what Zhu Han implemented in Annan was to win over the upper-class nobles to act as lackeys for Daming, and to suppress and exploit the lower-class Annan people together.

Of course, we can't deny hope to Annan's hard-working people.

Zhu Han announced that the Ming Dynasty changed Shenglong Mansion to Annan Mansion, set up the Annan Governor's Mansion, and appointed Shen Changhe as Annan's acting governor.

At the same time, Zhu Han also announced that the Annan Governor's Mansion recruited local Annan people to join the army. As long as they perform well within three years and can pass the assessment of the Ming Dynasty official language standard that Zhu Han knows, then these Annan people will obtain the status of Ming Dynasty citizens and join the army. In the sequence of officials of the Annan Protectorate, they squeezed down the other Annan people together. Zhu Han's system basically cut off the possibility of the Annan people wanting to resist independently.

Almost all the dignitaries and soldiers have become vested interests, and they are all Ming's lackeys. Who cares about those lower-level Annan serfs?

As for some of Annan's dignitaries who want to rebel occasionally, they will certainly not be able to cause a big storm. There is also a supervisor of Annan's Protectorate.

With lightning speed, Zhu Han quickly solved a hidden danger in the southern border of Daming.

Such a terrifying speed and method of action immediately horrified Chen Youliang, the emperor of Chen Han.

He managed to win an ally so that he could deal with Daming together, but he never thought that he would burp so soon.

"Your Majesty, the Ming army is stronger, we can't sit still, why not take the initiative to attack, make the border of the Ming army uneasy, and then make other plans!"

In the imperial palace in Chengdu, Prime Minister Zou Pusheng is presenting his strategy to Chen Youliang.

According to the current development of forces, the speed at which the Ming army strengthened far exceeded the speed at which Chen Han's army became stronger.

Moreover, the Ming army's demise of the Annan Kingdom this time showed great strength, which will inevitably make the Shan State, Burma, Angkor, Sava and other countries in the southern region panic and panic, and will make them completely surrender to Ming Dynasty.

At that time, Chen Han's border will not be peaceful.

Zou Pusheng felt that he might as well take the initiative to attack.

"Difficult!"

"It's too difficult. The Ming army also built many forts on the border, and they are stronger than mine. If you take the initiative to attack, I'm afraid you will die miserably!"

Chen Youliang couldn't help but shook his head and said.

There is no doubt about the strength of the Ming army, and Chen Han's army is already somewhat uncertain about the defense, so how dare they take the initiative to provoke the powerful Ming army.

With such a huge gap in strength, only Zhuge Liang dared to take the initiative to attack again and again.

As strong as Zhuge Liang, he failed in the end.

Both Chen Youliang and Zou Pusheng felt that it was impossible for them to surpass Zhuge Liang.

"Then since our own strength is not strong enough, why not go out and find allies and deal with the Ming army together!"

Chen Youren, Chen Youliang's younger brother, thought for a while and said.

"An Nanguo is vulnerable, so let's find an ally who is stronger than him!" Zou Pusheng immediately agreed.

After Chen Youliang heard this suggestion, he also strongly agreed. Now that Daming is too powerful, it is far from being able to deal with the Chen Han regime.

However, if they want to choose allies, they really don't have many directions to choose.

Chen Youliang regards the Mongols on the northern grasslands as his life and death enemies. It can be said that the sufferings in the first half of his life were caused by the Mongols.

It was impossible for him to accept the Mongols as his allies.
