Chapter 726: Siam's Response

The whole Annan seemed a little strange. All the Ming army and the Ming people retreated into the garrison, and the Annan people who were determined to be dogs for the Ming Dynasty also entered the garrison of the Ming army.

In this way, the entire Annan street returned to its past, and even more magical situation than Emperor Chongzhen had before coming to Annan, there was no one else except the Annan people.

The Annan people rarely fell into carnival, and even had some illusion in an instant that the Ming Dynasty was just like this.

The dog was so brave that the Annan people calmed down a little, then stared at the railway.

Just as Ruan Ziwen and Hu Shujie discussed before the uprising, the first threat Annan faced was the garrison and the second threat was the railway, because local soldiers from the Ming Dynasty could directly reach Annan via the railway.

The first threatening garrison was not sure what they were thinking. After they collectively retreated back to the garrison, they stopped coming out. Even if they were besieged by the Annan army, they didn't care. As long as the Annan people did not take the initiative to attack the garrison, the people in the garrison would do whatever they should do. It was quite a bit like the eight winds that could not be blown away, and I sang and danced to peace.

After several consecutive decisive attacks, the Annan people also learned how to learn.

Anyway, from the beginning, they were under the banner of opposing dog officials but not emperors. As long as these soldiers stayed honestly in the garrison and did not come out, the Annan people would make trouble for themselves, just pretending that they had not seen the soldiers in the garrison.

As for the second threat railway, the Annan people soon began the demolition operation, and even the various garrisons did not care about how they demolished the railway, but they had not built much. Even if the Annan rebels were destroyed, it would have basically no effect.

What's even more funny is that the Annan people themselves wanted to demolish the railway but didn't know where to start. Even if they were forcibly demolished it, they didn't know how to maximize the use of those railway tracks. They were more of them integrated into swords and iron pots.

What is sad is that the quality of those blended swords and iron pots is really worrying. It often takes no time to scrap the steel used for swords in the Ming Dynasty. The steel used for rails is not something that comes out of the same stove!

The Annan people were moving frequently, and the information was transmitted back to the Nanjing Military Palace and then to the capital, and finally arrived at the desk of Emperor Chongzhen.

After confirming each other with the information submitted by the Jinyiwei and the Governor's Office of the Five Army, Emperor Chongzhen immediately admired Duke Xu Hongji and Duke Zhang Zhi of the United Kingdom.

The fishing law enforcement was carried out hundreds of years in advance, and the dukes of the Ming Dynasty were mighty!

Only Hong Chengchou was very unhappy.

Although I have not built many railways in such a short time, at least I have built a little bit, right? There are also materials such as railway tracks, sleepers, etc., but they have been transported over a lot, and now they are all in the hands of the barbarian!

Not to mention that the work I did before was basically in vain and needed to be reworked. Even the speed of working in the future would be affected. We need to re-spread the transportation of materials.

Looking at Hong Chengchou, who had a gloomy face, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but smile and said, "Why should Hong Aiqing do this? There are a lot of laborers, and this is a good thing, so let's relax."

Hong Chengchou bowed and replied, but his heart was filled with pain.

All the materials were put into the Annan people's dog belly, and the Ministry of Railways bought them for money. Mr. Guo from the Ministry of Revenue really didn't want to see the dead face when he ordered the letter every time.

Emperor Chongzhen continued: "The section of the railway leading to Zhennanwei has not been destroyed yet. Let's repair the remaining ones first and temporarily repair them with wartime standards. How long will it take to repair them again after Jiaozhi is completely settled?"

After considering it, Hong Chengchou bowed and said, "Your Majesty, if it is temporarily built according to wartime standards, without hesitating manpower and material resources, a railway connecting Jiaozhi can be built within half a year.

However, the wartime standards only require that they can be used, and they are not as good as those of formally laid railways in terms of service life and load capacity, so they need to be repaved after the war."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said, "Then we will lay it temporarily first. When the people begin to be moved after the war, it will be a waste of several months."

The few months that Emperor Chongzhen said made many people restless. The reasons were different, either because they were excited by the military achievements they were about to be obtained, or because they were worried and unwilling to eat.

Excited were Xu Hongji, Zhang Weixian, and Mu Tianbo.

Especially Mu Tianbo, he was so excited the last time he was about to fight Mughal. As a result, after arriving in Myanmar, he was sent out to find the eldest son of the emperor, Zhu Cihuang. Later, there was no big battle with Mughal. He just went on an armed parade, which was too boring.

Now according to the entire combat plan, I can lead my troops into Annan, and then push them all the way and turn all the Annan monkeys into laborers, which is very exciting.

As for Zhang Weixian, it doesn't matter. He accompanied Emperor Chongzhen to lead troops to kill people the most times, and he wouldn't be as excited as Mu Tianbo, a rookie.

Those who are unwilling to eat and cannot sleep well are Li Xu, Hu Shujie, and Ruan Ziwen.

As time passed day by day, when the entire Annan joined the carnival of anti-dog officials but not against the emperor, the three of them felt more and more uneasy.

It was so strange. More than a month and nearly two months passed, and the entire streets of Annan had returned to the appearance of Emperor Chongzhen before coming to Annan, and it was even worse than before.

Before Emperor Chongzhen came to Annan, there were also merchants from the Ming Dynasty on the streets of Annan. Whether they were Han or Koreans, they were all Ming Dynasty people.

After Emperor Chongzhen came to Annan, there were more Ming people on the streets of Annan, especially the more than 100,000 people who immigrated later. Although not too many people were distributed throughout Annan, there were still more than 100,000 more people.

However, now, no people from the Ming Dynasty were seen on all the streets, whether they were merchants or civilians, and the news was gone.

Strangely, there has been no news from the Ming Dynasty so far. Whether it is his own occupying the government office or demolishing the railway, the Ming Dynasty has no reaction, as if it has completely forgotten Annan.

What makes people even more inconspicuous is that none of the spies sent to the past came back, and no news came back, as if they had completely disappeared.

Since the spy can’t count on it, can we send envoys to the saint of the capital?

This idea just came out of Li Xu's mind and was strangled to death. Before the Ming Dynasty recognized Annan as a vassal state, he sent envoys to him. The biggest possibility was to completely anger the Ming Dynasty and make things out of control.

After convening Hu Shujie and Ruan Ziwen for several times, they did not come to any conclusion. Li Xu was also becoming more and more panicked: "The situation is now very good, but the Ming Dynasty has not responded at all. Is there something wrong? It's really strange, weird."

Ruan Ziwen said: "The only things left are those garrisons now. However, it is nothing to surround the garrisons. Once you attack the garrisons, you are afraid that things will become out of control."

Ruan Ziwen knew Li Xu's meaning very well. The Ming Dynasty did not react at all. Li Xu would not think that there was something wrong with the Ming Dynasty. Instead, he put his ideas on those garrisons and fools knew that there were many good things in the garrisons, in addition to the piles of grain, there were also army of weapons and firearms.

It doesn’t matter if the Ming Dynasty was short of food and bought it from Annan, so it is even more impossible for me to lack food.

The key lies in those ordnances and firearms.

After the demolished railway was rebuilt into weapons, the quality was really bad. It was not much better than the weapons made by the Annan people themselves, and it was far worse than what they bought from Ming Dynasty before.

Especially for firearms, this thing can be created, but it can only be used for actual combat. So what's the use of this thing? It's not even as good as a fire stick!

However, these are not the reasons why Li Xu could put his ideas on the Wei Station...

As agreed before, the garrison can be besieged, but it must not be attacked. Otherwise, Ruan Qingping, who had just died, had a lesson from the past. Who would be willing to lead his troops to attack the garrison?

Even if someone is willing to go, can he fight? If the garrison station comes back from counterattack, can Annan stand it? The great situation will collapse, who can take on this responsibility?

After considering it, Ruan Ziwen bowed and said, "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter whether there is any problem with the Ming Dynasty itself. The most important thing at the moment is these ward stations.

According to the nature of the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, he would definitely not be able to allow these garrisons and the people hidden in them to wander outside. He would most likely send a fleet to pick them up or let them return to Ming by themselves.

I think the king might as well go to see the governor of the Ming Kingdom, Lord Lu, and first express my kindness of Annan, even if it is a gift to them, it would be fine."

Hu Shujie snorted and said, "Give them gifts to the Ming Dynasty? This is the great opinion of my general Annan Kingdom? I am afraid that after sending all the Ming army and the Ming people back to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army should come!

On the contrary, as long as these people are in Annan one day and besieged in the garrison one day, it will be equivalent to adding an amulet to Annan, and the people of the Ming Dynasty may not dare to act rashly."

Ruan Ziwen was so angry that he almost cursed and surrounded by Hu Shujie's words?

It was just a siege. The Ming army really rushed out of the garrison to return to the Ming Dynasty. What strength does Annan have to stop him?

Sometimes it’s okay to shout slogans and fool the people below and ordinary people. The dignified Prime Minister of Annan actually believed this nonsense. Isn’t this a joke?

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

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

After turning his eyes to Ruan Ziwen, Li Xu said, "If this is the case, it will not be impossible. After all, we are the rebel dog officials, not the emperor, not the Ming Dynasty.

If the soldiers of the garrison agreed to return to Ming Kingdom honestly, I would naturally be willing to repay them and send them out of the country with gifts.

But it is not appropriate to have this peace talks with Governor Lu, so why not ask the general to go there in person?”

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

...

After receiving the letter sent by Ruan Ziwen to request peace talks, Lu Xiangsheng laughed softly, and tore the letter into pieces, he said to the envoy with a smile: "This governor is the governor of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty has not issued an edict to return to the Ming Dynasty. This governor is responsible for defending the territory, so he will naturally not return to the Ming Dynasty.

I have already known the meaning of your general and the so-called king. I believe that in a while, my Emperor Ming Dynasty will know it. As for what will happen in the future, I will leave you to fate and not send it to you.”

He had no intention of facing the envoy at all. Instead, after he drove out of the ward like a dog in the future, Lu Xiangsheng spoke to the many officials in the lobby: "You have heard what the envoy said just now, have you heard?"

Kang Anguo bowed and said, "Sir, those Annan thieves have already acted so blatantly in rebellion. It is better to lead troops to suppress them!"

Lu Xiangsheng smiled and shook his head and said, "No, the matter of suppressing these Annan monkeys will naturally be decided by Your Majesty and the military government. We just need to follow the leadership.

The meaning of this governor is not to let Er and others send troops to suppress him, but to let Er and others remember how these Annan monkeys jump now!"

Zhang Shuqin bowed and said, "What the Governor said is that these Annan monkeys face and beastly hearts are afraid of power but do not have virtue. Now they bully me, the Ming Ruos, should teach them a lesson!"

Lu Xiangsheng nodded then and ordered Kang Anguo: "Play the news with a Feisou, and then wait for the decision in the country.

According to our governor's estimate, even if the army is not in these few days, it should be within this month."

Lu Xiangsheng felt that his estimate was not much wrong. After all, the Annan people had been in chaos for two months, and the Ming Dynasty should have raised an army to quell the rebellion. Otherwise, other places would follow suit in the future, which would be the real joke.

Especially those places that later included, such as Myanmar, and the Mughals that were later conquered, would be disgusting if they also rebel with the Annan people.

However, Xu Hongji, who was far away in Nanjing Military Palace, held the letter in his hand and looked at each other with Zhang Zhiji and Mu Tianbo, who had also read the letter.

The letter was sent from Siam, and even the Siam royal family had already made their attitude naked in the letter. As long as the Ming Dynasty father needed it, Siam would immediately send troops to Annan to attack the unjust!
