After the rainstorm, Annan was left with nothing left for Chen Mu to watch a play, and the smoke made Chen Mu feel that he could fight for another thirty years.

But in fact, it can't be fought for that long, the climate of the Indochina Peninsula is different, and the one who knows the climate here best is not Deng Zilong but Mo Jingdian.

In the last two days when the rain stopped, Mo Jingdian sent an envoy into Chen Mu's camp, Chen Mu deliberately made the soldiers look dead, and authorized his subordinates to gamble in the camp for half a day, and there was no taboo in chasing and fighting.

The envoys didn't care about those at all, they had already eaten enough of Chen Mu's losses, and after finalizing the peace, Chen Mu asked Lin Manjue to climb Nanshan and look west.

Lin Manjue was very sure that in the west of the river under the mountain, there were at least 30,000 soldiers and horses stationed in the past, but now the camp is empty.

Before the peace envoy was returned, and it was still raining lightly in the sky, Mo Jingdian had already set up camp and marched westward.

In the war with Chen Mu, Mo Jingdian's ability could not be used, but it was different to fight with Zheng Song and Pan Gongji, the two hastily gathered 50,000 troops to march east to the north, and they didn't hear of any results, but only one month after Mo Jingdian left, the war became clear.

On the 7th, Mo Jingdian sent Ruan Ti, who was defeated by Chen Mu and fled back to Thanh Hoa, led 17,000 troops to meet Zheng Song, who was pursuing, and the two sides were deadlocked for several days.

On the 24th, he captured the empty garrison of Yi'an, turned his head back and swept through Thanh Hoa Mansion, and then broke Zheng Song, who was confronting Ruan Ti, and his subordinates captured Zheng Song in Cen Mountain.

Mo Jingdian even occupied Yi'an.

Chen Mu sent someone to write a letter to Ruan Huang in Hue and Quang Nam, telling him that Mo Jingdian was at the end of his crossbow, and as long as he waited for him to march east into Ruan Huang, he could take Yi'an, and the imperial court would seal Ruan Huang Yongzhen Situ.

Subsequently, he stuck on time to send someone to tell Mo Jingdian how Bai Yuanjie broke Shenglong and the news that the East Water Gate of Shenglong City had not yet been repaired, and then no matter what Mo Jingdian thought, he joined forces with Yu Dayou and Liu Xian and entered Shenglong City.

"To be honest, Jinshenglong, I don't even want to give this city to Mo Jingdian anymore."

The inner city of Thang Long is a palace, the palace is nothing curious about Chen Mu, there is no palace in this world that can compare to the Forbidden City, but the outer city is different, this is a giant city on the water that chokes the mouth of the river, and the thirty-six streets in the city seem to let Chen Mu return to ancient times.

It is the ancient times of his time, like the Song Dynasty but not prosperous, like the Tang Dynasty but not heroic, all walks of life and streets are well organized, and others have different feelings from him.

Yu Dayou and Liu Xian don't say it, after this ancient famous general broke the city, he didn't give an order to let the army under his command plunder the city It is already a high moral level, and the two old men are still in the palace to thank him, they have fought a lifetime in the country, and they have no experience in breaking through the palace, and now they are all together.

Chen Ju, the eunuch who supervised the army, Wang Tianrui and others who accompanied the army and supervised the army, showed deeper disdain for this palace city, they were originally from the palace, and they were not even more interested in this pirated palace hanging overseas, but they were more interested in Chen Mu's next plan.

"Thang Long City, the local people also call this the old city pass, Tokyo, this is the top priority to control the estuary, our ships into the sea, into the river, have to pass through here, need the garrison to control the transport, no matter who controls Thang Long City, the imperial court must sign a treaty with it, this river belongs to us."

"In addition, this time I need to do something to return to Beijing to repay my merits."

In the small pavilion on the lotus pond next to the royal river in the Shenglong Imperial City, Chen Mu and the generals, the supervising army, and the brocade guard officers sat down one by one.

Wang Tianrui, one hundred households in brocade clothes, has the lowest official position, and even if he usually has the power of a thousand households in person, it is not as good as his hundred households in brocade clothes, but at this time, it is obvious that the little hundred households can discuss matters here is already a great priority, and naturally ranks last, but he didn't expect Chen Mu to call him at the beginning, and hurriedly got up and saluted.

"Chen Shuai, please speak!"

"I am going to send a letter to the Jingshi, looking for those who are proficient in medical skills, proficient in business, etc., in Jinyi, and open a medical hall, a wine shop, a boat shop, a cloth shop, a rice shop, and a private school in the 36 Hang Street of Thang Long, and each of them will raise funds and money to make a living, and also spy on the military and the people, so as to prepare for emergencies."

"Not only Thang Long, but also Thanh Hoa and Hue also need to send Jinyi to do this, and after returning to the imperial court, this matter needs to be arranged by hundreds of households."

"Remember, not only the things I said above, what can help the poor in the local area, what can make the people support, we will do anything, this is what I learned from the Portuguese and Xiyi, spies are multi-faceted people, belong to spies, just a little bit."

Wang Tianrui was a little confused about this mission, he responded with his fists, but his face was extremely sad, this kind of thing is not something he can do at all, and the need to mobilize manpower is not to mention that he is a 100 households with no power who only receive money, even if it is a thousand households with real power, it is very difficult.

However, the eunuch Chen Ju on the side smiled and said: "Why are you depressed, we can understand, Wang Baihu is about to be promoted, thank you Chen Shuai!" ”

Others don't understand, but Chen Ju's heart is like a mirror, their gang first followed Chen Mu to the border of the South Seas, and no one was less offended, and they were the first to send them out, and everyone was angry.

Later, Chen Mu became bigger and bigger in Nanyang, and the court did not give Chen Mu an official to the knighthood, and the people who worked under him did not get any benefits in the court, Chen Ju himself had a conjecture in his heart, and some people in the court did not want the Nanyang military government to develop too fast, let alone Chen Mujiaguan to become a knight.

But that's because the previous exploits were only done by the Nanyang Military Government itself, this time the war in Annam was a complete victory, and it also collaborated with the troops of Guangxi and Yunnan provinces, and it was impossible not to report the war to the imperial court without showing merit for others.

Chen Mu reciprocated the favor and gave some sweetness to the Jinyi Wei who followed him to suffer, this is just the beginning, and it will be the turn of others later!

"Don't be in a hurry to thank you, the court may not agree to this matter, if you agree, you can't do this without real power." Chen Mu smiled and asked Wang Tianrui to sit down, and when he raised his hand, an entourage handed a few letters to everyone.

He looked at Yu Dayou and Liu Xiandao: "The two old marshals and your colleagues, please see, this is a treaty drawn up by Chen, if you feel that there is no problem, just report it to the imperial court, if there is any change, we will discuss it again." ”

Liu Xian looked at a few pages in his hand, frowned and asked: "Why, after half a year of fighting, this land still has to be handed over to the people of Annan, Chen Shuai, although this battle started because of the river, but now it has won a complete victory, shouldn't it be regained and ruled in three directions, it is nothing more than to drop the north and south, the north is in the south, and the south is in the north, what does this mean?" ”

Yu Dayou did not react as much as Liu Xian, although the old man was also a little puzzled, but he looked at the treaty with both frowns and chin heads, and said, "The old man has no objections. ”

"The imperial court has not confiscated Jiaozhi, and it costs a lot of money every year but it is not profitable, so there are other ancestral teachings that are not enough to supply and the people are not enough to make orders, and it is not appropriate for us to disobey the ancestral teachings as generals."

"Therefore, if I receive the right to the river, the sea, the mine, and the salt for a hundred years as a punishment, will I get the benefits and the whole country, and will everyone be happy?"
