The whole Annan looked a little weird, all the Ming army and the people of the Ming Dynasty shrank into the guard, and even those Annan people who were desperate to be dogs for the Ming Dynasty also entered the Ming army's guard.

In this way, the entire streets of Annam were restored to their former condition, even more miraculous than before Emperor Chongzhen came to Annam—there was no one else but the people of Annam.

The people of Annam rarely fell into a carnival, and even had some kind of illusion for a moment, thinking that the Ming Dynasty was nothing more than that.

After calming down a little, the Annanites set their sights on the railway.

Just like Ruan Ziwen and Hu Shujie discussed before the uprising, the first threat facing Annan is the guard, and the second threat is the railway, because the local soldiers of the Ming Dynasty can directly reach Annan by rail.

The first threat of the guard does not know what to think, and after the collective turtle retreats back to the guard, it will not come out, even if it is besieged by the army of the Annamite people, it doesn't care, as long as the Annam people do not take the initiative to attack the guard, the people in the guard will do what they should do, quite a bit of the eight winds can't blow, I sing and dance to the meaning of peace.

After several successive fatal attacks were pressed to the ground by the guards and beaten severely, the Annanites also learned to be obedient.

Anyway, from the very beginning, under the banner of anti-dog officials and not anti-emperor, as long as these soldiers honestly stay in the guard and don't come out, the Annan people will make trouble of their own, and they should not see the soldiers in the guard.

As for the second threat, the Annamite people quickly began to dismantle it, and even the various guards didn't care how they demolished it - the railroad had not been built much in the first place, and even if it were completely destroyed by the Annam rebels, it would have little effect.

What's even funnier is that the Annan people themselves, who want to dismantle the railroad but don't know where to start, even if they are forcibly demolished, they don't know how to maximize the use of those rails, and more often they are melted into swords and iron pots and other things.

Sadly, the quality of the swords and iron pots that melted out is really worrying, and it often doesn't take long to be scrapped - the steel used to make swords in the Ming Dynasty is not the same thing as the steel used for railroad tracks!

The Annan people made frequent moves, and the information was transmitted back to the Nanjing Military Mansion and then to the capital, and finally to the desk of Emperor Chongzhen.

After corroborating each other with the information presented by Jinyiwei and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, Emperor Chongzhen immediately threw himself on the five-body body that Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, and the British Duke Zhang Zhiji admired.

Hundreds of years in advance, fishing law enforcement was played, and the princes of the Ming Dynasty were mighty!

Only Hong Chengchou was very unhappy.

Although it is said that not many railways have been built in such a short period of time, but they have not been repaired a little? There are also those rails and sleepers and other materials, but they have not been transported over, and now they are all in the hands of the barbarians!

Not to mention that the work I did before was basically done in vain, and I needed to rework it, and even the speed of my work in the future had to be affected, and I needed to redeploy and deliver materials to the past.

Looking at Hong Chengchou with a gloomy face, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why should Hong Aiqing be like this? Seeing that there are a large number of laborers, this is a good thing, and it is easy to relax. ”

Hong Chengchou bowed down, but his heart was dripping with pain.

So many materials have all entered the dog's belly of the Annan people, and the Ministry of Railways still bought it back for money - and Guo Lao of the household department really didn't want to see the dead face when he picked out the slip every time.

Emperor Chongzhen continued: "Now that the section of the railway leading to Zhennanwei has not been destroyed, how long will it take to repair the remaining ones first, temporarily repair them with wartime standards, and then rebuild them when they are completely calmed down?" ”

After thinking about it for a while, Hong Chengchou bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, if it is temporarily built according to wartime standards, without sparing manpower and material resources, a railway through Jiaozhi can be built within half a year.

It's just that wartime standards only require that they can be used, and neither the service life nor the carrying capacity of the officially laid railways are inferior, so they need to be re-laid after the war. ”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said: "Then it will be laid temporarily, and then it will be officially laid after the war when the people begin to be relocated, and it will only be a waste of a few months." ”

Emperor Chongzhen's mouth for a few months made many people restless, for different reasons, either because of the excitement of the upcoming military exploits, or because of fear and unpleasantness.

The excited ones were Xu Hongji and Zhang Weixian, as well as Mu Tianbo.

Especially Mu Tianbo, who was already excited when he was ready to scare the Mughals last time, was sent out to find the emperor's eldest son Zhu Cixiao after arriving in Burma, and later there was no big battle with the Mughals, the whole thing was an armed march, which was too boring.

Now, according to the entire battle plan, I can lead troops into Annam, and then I have to push all the way and turn all the Annam monkeys into laborers, which is very exciting.

As for Zhang Weixian, it doesn't matter, he accompanies Emperor Chongzhen with his soldiers to cut people the most, and he will not be as excited as Mu Tianbo, a rookie.

Those who can't sleep are Li Xu and Hu Shujie, as well as Ruan Ziwen.

As time passed, when the entire Annan joined this anti-dog official and not anti-emperor carnival, the hearts of the three of them became more and more uneasy.

It's really strange, more than a month and nearly two months have passed, and the entire streets of Annam have once again returned to the way they were before Emperor Chongzhen came to Annam, and even worse than before.

Before Emperor Chongzhen came to Annan, there were still Ming merchants on the streets of Annan, whether they were Han or Koreans, they were all Ming people.

After Emperor Chongzhen came to Annan, there were more Ming people on the streets of Annan, especially the hundreds of thousands of people who immigrated later, although they were not too much distributed in the entire Annan, but there were more than 100,000 people.

However, now, there is no Ming people on all the streets, whether they are merchants or civilians, and there is no trace of the news.

The strange thing is that there has been no movement from the Ming side until now, whether it is his own people occupying the official office or demolishing the railway, the Ming Dynasty has no reaction, as if he has completely forgotten Annan.

What is even more puzzling is that none of the spies sent by the past have returned, and no news has come back, as if they have disappeared completely.

Since the spies can't count on it, can they send envoys to Jingsheng?

This idea was strangled to death as soon as it came out of Li Xu's mind - sending envoys over when Da Ming had not yet recognized Annan as a vassal state, the biggest possibility was to completely anger Da Ming and make things out of control.

After summoning Hu Shujie and Ruan Ziwen to discuss it several times, they did not come to any conclusion, and Li Xu's heart became more and more panicked: "Now the situation is very good, but there is no reaction from the Ming side, is there something wrong?" It's amazing, it's weird. ”

Ruan Ziwen said: "Now the only thing that is missing is those guards, but it is nothing to surround the guards, once you attack the guards, I am afraid that things will become out of control." ”

Ruan Ziwen knew very well what Li Xu meant, and now Da Ming didn't have any reaction, and Li Xu wouldn't think that there was really something wrong with Da Ming, but instead hit the idea on those guards - fools know that there are many good things in the guards, in addition to the mountains of food, there are also ordnance and firearms of the army.

It doesn't matter if the food is in short supply, when the Ming Dynasty is short of food, it is impossible for him to be short of food.

It's all about the ordnance and firearms.

After the demolished railway was melted and rebuilt into weapons, the quality was really terrible, and the weapons built by the Annan people themselves were not much better, and they were even worse than the ones they bought from the Ming Kingdom before.

Especially firearms, this thing can be built to look like, but it can't be used in actual combat, so what's the use of this thing? It's not even as good as burning a fire stick!

However, these are not the reasons why Li Xu can hit the idea on the guard......

As has been agreed before, the guard can be besieged, but it must not be attacked, otherwise, Ruan Thanh Binh, who has just died, is not far away, who is willing to lead troops to attack the guard?

Even if someone is willing to go, can they fight? When the time comes, if the guard comes back from the counterattack, will Annan be able to bear it? The good situation has collapsed because of this, who can take this responsibility?

After thinking about it for a while, Ruan Ziwen bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if there is something wrong with the Ming Kingdom itself, the most important thing at the moment is these guards.

According to the character of the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, it is inevitable that he will not let these guards and the people hidden in the guards go outside, and it is very likely that he will send a fleet to pick them up, or let them return to the Ming on their own.

The minister thought that the king might as well go and meet the governor of the Ming Kingdom, Lord Lu, and express the goodwill of my Annan first, even if it was to send them back to the Ming Dynasty. ”

Hu Shujie snorted and said, "Gift them to Ming?" This is the high opinion of my general of Annan? I'm afraid that after sending these Ming troops and Ming people back to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army should also come over!

On the contrary, as long as these people are in my Annan for one day and besieged in the guard for one day, it is equivalent to giving me an extra talisman in Annan, and the people of the Ming Kingdom may not dare to act rashly. ”

Ruan Ziwen was almost scolded by Hu Shujie's words - besieged?

It's said that it's a siege, but it's just talking, the Ming army really rushed out of the guard and wanted to return to Daming, and Annan had the strength to stop it?

Sometimes it's okay to shout slogans to fool the people below and ordinary people, but the dignified Prime Minister of Annan actually believes this, isn't this a joke?

Fortunately, Hu Shujie deceived himself, and Li Xu was not stupid enough to be as stupid as Hu Shujie.

Although he was disappointed with Hu Shujie's performance, thinking that his throne would rely more on the support of the family behind Hu Shujie and Ruan Ziwen, Li Xu still endured this dissatisfaction.

After setting his eyes on Ruan Ziwen, Li Xu said: "If this is the case, it's not impossible, after all, we are anti-dog officials, not emperors, not Daming."

If the soldiers of the guard agreed to return to the Ming Kingdom honestly, the king would naturally be willing to return the favor and send them out.

It's just that this matter of peace talks with Governor Lu is not suitable for this king to come forward in person, so why don't you ask the general to go in person? ”

Ruan Ziwen bowed and said, "I am willing to serve the king." ”

……

After Lu Xiangsheng received the letter sent by Ruan Ziwen to ask for peace talks, he smiled softly, and after tearing the letter into pieces, he said to the envoy with a smile: "This governor is the governor of the Ming Emperor, and His Majesty has not issued an edict ordering the governor to return to the Ming Dynasty, so the governor has the responsibility of guarding the land, and naturally he will not return to the Ming Dynasty."

The meaning of your general and the so-called lord of the country is already known to the Governor, and I think in some time, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty will also know. As for what happens in the future, you will leave it to fate. I do not send it. ”

Without the slightest intention of facing the envoy, but after the envoy was driven out of the guard like a dog, Lu Xiangsheng said to the many officials in the hall: "What the envoy said just now, have you heard it?" ”

Kang Anguo bowed and said: "My lord, now those Annan thieves have already rebelled so blatantly, it is better to lead the troops to suppress it!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng shook his head with a smile and said, "No, the matter of suppressing these Annan monkeys will naturally be decided by His Majesty and the military government, and we just need to follow the lead."

Ben Du didn't mean to let you send troops to suppress it, but to let you remember how these Annan monkeys are jumping now! ”

Zhang Shuqin bowed down and said: "What the Governor said is extremely true, these Annan monkeys are beast-hearted, fearful of power but not virtuous, and now they are bullying me Da Ming Ruosi, it is precisely because they should teach me a good lesson!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng nodded at this time, and then instructed Kang Anguo: "Spread the news through the flying slaves, and then wait for the domestic decision."

According to Bendu's estimate, the time for the army to start will not be in these days, but it should be within this month. ”

Lu Xiangsheng felt that his estimation was not too wrong, after all, it has been two months since the Annan people rebelled, and the Ming Dynasty should also raise troops to quell the rebellion, otherwise other places will follow suit in the future, and that is the real joke.

Especially those places that were annexed later, such as Burma, and the Mughal and other places that were later captured, if they also rebelled with the Annamite people, it would be disgusting.

But Xu Hongji, who was far away in the Nanjing Military Mansion, pinched the letter in his hand and looked at Zhang Zhiji and Mu Tianbo, who had also read the letter.

The letter was sent from Siam, and even the Siamese royal family had made their attitude naked in the letter, as long as Daming's father needed it, Siam would immediately send troops to Annam to defeat the ministers!

Xu Hongji, who was a little dumbfounded, pondered for a long time before he said: "Why don't you pass the news to the capital, and let Your Majesty decide!" ”
