Bringing Military Supplies to Ming Dynasty

As soon as the two parties met, Yang Chendong pointed to the Luzon Islands area on the Sandbox and asked Gao Xiong, “How about? Are you confident to eat this place in one bite?”

Gao Xiong looked up at the Sandbox, and a startled color flashed in his eyes: “Luzon Islands?”

“Yes, it is Luzon Islands.” Yang Chendong nodded defaulted.

He didn’t answer right away, but he replied after thinking about it for a while in his mind: “Sixth Young Master, our people have been on this island more than once. It is very clear that their defensive power is very poor, and there is no problem with them. But there are mostly Han people, and the relationship with Great Ming is very close. If you move them, I am afraid…”

The next words Gao Xiong did not continue, but the meaning is already very clear, that is, will the Luzon Islands cause dissatisfaction from the Great Ming in the north and the south? Now all the supply and demand in Sicheng go through Northern Ming. Turning the ground, once the relationship becomes frozen, I am afraid that there will be no good for everyone.

“It’s okay, now and then, our current strength is not good enough to launch an offensive against Northern Ming, but some peripheral forces can be swept away. Besides, we don’t have to fight this time. The banner of the mercenary, you know the fact that your Third Sea Division seized 20 Spanish ships before.”

Yang Chendong just mentioned a little bit, Gao Xiong immediately understood this. Means, immediately said: “Sixth Young Master is going to arrange for them to attack Luzon Islands? Oh, the subordinate understands, please rest assured, Sixth Young Master, I will prepare right away, and promise not to let others know, this is ours Meaning.”

“Hehe, okay. Commander Gao, this time we packed up the Spanish ships. I believe they will send people in shortly, adding a sea like Portugal. The boat is still wandering in this area, no matter how good things are, so many people can’t help but divide it. Even more how, This Young Master never thought about dividing it with them, and even one day if conditions permit, we will go out. , To occupy more places, so the building of the navy is no longer waiting for us. Just one army is no longer enough.”

“Sixth Young Master means to form an army?” Gao Xiong is so smart, I immediately thought of the implications of these words.

“Yes. Another army will be formed next, but more will be formed in the future. In the future, several armies will be combined to form a corps. There is a long way to go. You Well, be prepared to carry heavy burdens. When the Luzon Islands are taken this time, the naval command will be established. When the time comes, you will be the first deputy commander.” Yang Chendong patted Gao Xiong On the shoulders, this person is prudent, has a strong overall view, and has good commanding ability. He is a person who can bear heavy burdens.

Hearing this grand plan, Gao Xiong just felt a burst of blood boiling, and immediately said: “Sixth Young Master, please rest assured, I will go back to prepare. At the same time, he will be in Chihkan City. The selection of naval soldiers in China. In fact, we have been doing this kind of work only because the source of troops is limited and there is no big fanfare, but it is not a problem to form an army in a short time.”

“Very good . At least the second army commander, you can report to me in the name of the naval command.” Yang Chendong did what he said, putting the task of forming the second army at sea on the agenda. In Yang Chendong’s view, it is no longer enough to expand its strength on land. In addition, Dongfang World has been exposed and will face various emergencies or even provocations at any time. The expansion of the navy is also a must. .

Gao Xiong left. Only ten days later, ten warships with three parallel rectangles of red, yellow and red forming the national flag sailed onto the sea and headed towards the Luzon Islands. It seems that this is just a simple voyage, but not at all people know that all the officers and soldiers of the Hai First Division are huddled on these ten big ships, giving people a very crowded feeling.

This time it was the Haiyi Division that received the mission. This is what Gao Xiong meant. Now that the Navy is about to establish a Second Army, who will be the commander of the army? The commander is also the first deputy commander of the naval command. Of course he has to express his opinions. Yue Guang, the commander of the First Division, was the first to follow him and was also the first to follow the Sixth Young Master. He had the ability and qualifications, so he made him the candidate for the commander of the Second Army. This time he captured it. Luzon Islands is to give him a chance to show his face in front of Sixth Young Master.

Yue Guang naturally grasped the performance opportunity given to the army commander. After receiving the order, he and the four heads of the Haiyi Division and the staff of Luzon Islands repeatedly Researched and worked out what they thought was the most complete combat plan.

When ten ships with the Spanish flag arrived at the northernmost pier of Luzon Islands on the grounds of trade, the four regiments were in charge of controlling here. The first, second, and third regiments were three different from the left, middle and right. The tactics of lightning raids were launched in the direction, and they soon controlled most of the area around the Kajal River.

There was no defense before. The Luzon regime, which had only 50,000 soldiers and was still defensive, fell after only five days. The fallen Governor Chen Rong was taken prisoner, and the entire Luzon Islands became New land occupied by mercenaries.

On the 2nd day after the Luzon Islands changed flag, a large number of ships under the flag of the Five-Star suddenly appeared. They surrounded the ten ships with Spain. After a fierce battle , To destroy it, the chief general Miguel and the deputy Cruz were captured and then blatantly taken away. When this scene happened, it was witnessed by many merchants in the northern docks of Luzon Islands, and the plan was successfully completed.

Yang Chendong used two secretly captured enemy generals and ten warships to perform the show, and reasonably occupied Luzon Islands. They defeated the Western powers and returned to the Luzon Islands for safety. The news broke that even if the Southern Northern Ming Dynasty knew about this, there was no way to say something and so on. As for the next mercenaries not at all to leave, but to send troops to garrison here, it is better to explain, after all, this place has become the target of other countries, and they stay here just to better protect that’s all.

After Luzon Islands became the new power of Yang Chendong, it expanded the northern terminal according to his request and renamed it Luzon Port. At the same time, a new city Songcheng was built on the island, which is governed by Chihkan City Li Sheng recommended by Yu Qian as the first City Lord.

Because the population of Luzon Islands was not very large at that time, it was only over one million. In order to strengthen the construction here and prosper the economy here, 2,000,000 people were transferred from the Cambodian Province. So far, Yang Chendong has fulfilled his commitment to the Governor of Sun Xiaoguang.

After Luzon Islands became a member of Yang Chendong’s sphere of influence, they successfully controlled the South China Sea Sea Territory of the Ming Dynasty, relying on the small Ryukyu Islands, Luzon Islands, and the docks and ports of Vietnam. A pocket is formed on the Sea Territory. If they do not agree with them, ships of any force may face major blows from three sides if they enter here.

The task of capturing Luzon Islands was successfully completed. The time came to May 1454. At this time, Second Madam Qiao Yin was in labor for less than a month. Yang Chendong gave up all military affairs and returned to Chihkan. City comfortably accompanies Qiao Yin, who is waiting to give birth, to wait for the birth of his first child.

Yang Chendong has ceased, and all provinces under his influence have settled down. The continued development of this development should be stabilized and time should be steadily seized. The Naval Command also passed a resolution to prepare for the establishment of the Second Army at sea. , Ordered Yue Guang to be the commander of the army, with four, five, and six naval divisions under its jurisdiction, with a total of more than 26,000 officers.

At the same time, it was announced that from now on, the mercenary was renamed Five Star Army, and it was sent to the world.

The mercenary changed its name and became the Five Star Army, which is definitely a major event. However, there are not many people who really pay attention to this aspect at the moment. Everything is that after Yang Chendong opened his sword to the Cambodian Dynasty, various forces also took the opportunity to seek opportunities to seize their own benefits.

Shortly after learning that mercenaries had launched an attack on the Cambodian Dynasty, Prince of Minzhuang Zhu Huizhen called himself Southern Ming Prince and sent an edict to the world. And soon after sending troops to the Prince of Xiping Mu Bin in Yunnan.

For Southern Ming Prince Zhu Huizhen, his location is not satisfactory. To the north is the army of Northern Ming, to the east is the Mu Family army of Prince of Xiping to the west, and to the south is the mercenary. The Vietnamese province of the site. Surrounded by all sides, there is not even a safe way to go out. If something happens, isn’t it a life threatening?

In order to solve this trouble, he must blaze a trail. After much deliberation, he set the goal in Yunnan where Prince of Xiping is located.

This is also no way. Relatively speaking, Prince of Xiping is better bullied among the three forces surrounding him. In order to achieve the goal of hitting a hit, Zhu Huizhen mobilized an army of hundreds of thousands and gave a heavy blow to Mu Bin under the Yunnan forces without saying hello.

Unfortunately, because the news was revealed in advance, not at all had the purpose of killing Mu Bin with a single blow. It was just a heavy blow to Mu Bin. But just when Southern Ming Prince was thinking about taking the entire Yunnan with one effort, Southern Ming sent troops. For a while, Southern Ming Prince had to fight on both sides, and soon turned from offensive to defensive, and the war was in a stalemate for a while. status.

At this time, Hong Jin, a general of the Vietnamese army under the influence of mercenaries, led his troops out of Lang Son, watching the three parties fought together with the momentum of watching the tigers fighting on the mountain.

The appearance of Hong Jin not only means that Yang Chendong behind him is paying attention to this matter, but also that he has to do a very important thing, that is, to receive the people who have been hurt during and after the war. They don’t know whoever comes, as long as they are Han Chinese, they will accept them and arrange the rest of their lives.

Compared to the Han Chinese who spent a full ten million silver taels to buy Northern Ming last time, this time Yang Chendong no longer pays, but just picks up people.

Facts have proved that every land occupation requires a large number of Han people to occupy. Although Yang Chendong still has more than three million Han people in his hands after the last purchase event, it is compared to With the expansion of his power, this figure is obviously not enough.
