    Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao had no intention of killing Fang Jifan and finally let him go.

    Fang Jifan breathed heavily.

    Zhu Houzhao threatened, and Fang Jifan was a little confused. What his sister-in-law did seemed very boring.

    ¡°However, it¡¯s good to see Zhu Houzhao looking so angry.

    Zhu Houzhao finally became serious again: "Do you think our plan can come true?"

    Fang Jifan also became serious: "It depends on whether His Highness has confidence in himself."

    Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and sighed melancholy: "I have been studying military art since I was a child, but there are not many times when I can really verify it. However, I also know that things on the battlefield are changing rapidly. The so-called soldiers are impermanent and water is impermanent. Many  What we expected may not come true, but if we don't take action in this war and just talk about it on paper, then what we think will never be verified. This time's battle method is beyond the past. Whether it can succeed or not depends on  Let¡¯s look at Tang Yin, Shen Ao and others.¡±

    Fang Jifan held his chin: "What should we do if we fail? Your Highness, what I mean is that we need to prepare for a rainy day."

    Zhu Houzhao glanced outside the hall. There were dozens of windows in the hall, several of which were open. Behind one window, he saw a figure with a hunched body. Liu Jin was a little tired, so he leaned on  At the base of the wall, he held a handful of fried soybeans in his hand, and from time to time he would stuff a soybean into his mouth. He looked extremely bored and followed His Highness to this place where birds were not busy. He could not even eat well. He leaned against it with his back.  Standing against the wall with his legs wrapped around each other, he was eating beans and enjoying himself leisurely.

    Having experienced so many things, Liu Jin looked at things more openly. The fried soybeans were chewing in his mouth.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    When Fang Jifan saw Zhu Houzhao's eyes, he immediately understood something.

    Although this excuse is obviously a bit far-fetched, but the biggest role of the scapegoat is that what His Majesty needs is an excuse. When such a big thing happens, one or two people must be killed to explain it.  , either Zhu Houzhao, Fang Jifan, or two people said in unison, involving Liu Jin.

    ¡°I feel so wronged to him.¡± Fang Jifan sighed.

    Eunuch Liu was such a powerful figure in history. Although his end was a bit miserable, he was the leader of the Eight Tigers and was even called the 'Emperor'. But from my own perspective, this Eunuch Liu is actually as good as history.  The contrast with the rampant eunuch Liu on the floor above was a bit big.

    "There is no way, someone has to take the blame." Zhu Houzhao said: "Who told him to always say that he is willing to die for me? I will give him a chance."

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Annam's geography is long and narrow, with high mountains in the north. However, from these high mountains to its royal capital, Thang Long City, there is an open plain. All the way to the south, there are also land of fish and rice such as Champa. The rice here can be used for three purposes.  When ripe, the grain yield is extremely high.

    His Royal Highness the Prince made a sudden announcement, and the Guizhou military guards began to gather and try to go south. The Annan people got the warning. If they said they were not worried at all, it would be a lie. Fortunately, in the north, there are continuous mountains as a barrier. As long as the people of Annan stay vigilant,  Every pass can be consumed by the Ming army.

    When Emperor Wen first conquered Annan, the preparations for the war lasted for one or two years. Hundreds of thousands of troops marched together, and then they defeated Thang Long in one fell swoop.

    Therefore, although Annan was preparing intensively for war and dispatching various troops and horses to go north, there was no urgency.

    They were confident that they had ancestral experience in dealing with the Ming army, and the terrain of Annan gave the Annan people a sufficient advantage. Therefore, Annan mobilized the power of the country, sending countless troops, horses, money and food to the north in a mighty manner.  The army of Dang is endless.

    The Guizhou military guards have set up their positions in the north. They are the vanguard. If the imperial court is determined to march south, then the Yunnan army and horses of Duke Qian and guest troops from all over will also swarm in.

    The war is about to break out.

    But now, it is the calm before the war, on this sunny day.

    The Annan Army stationed in Thanh Hoa went about their exercises lazily as usual.

    Thanh Hoa is the rear area, with the capital Thang Long to the north and Champa to the south. Compared with the countless Annan troops who were transferred to the north, the Annan army stationed here does not seem to feel the tension of the coming storm. After all  ¡­This place is too far away from the war, and the Ming army is still thousands of miles away.

    But at this moment, ships appeared on the sea level one after another.

    More and more ships gradually revealed their huge silhouettes.

    When he first sailed to the Western Ocean, Xu Jing searched for a waterway and reached the waters near here., not only that, he also recruited people from Champa and carefully inquired about the hydrological information here. Sailing to the West was originally an exploration. In addition, Xu Jing said that during the Song and Yuan Dynasties, a large number of merchant ships traveled to and from Champa, Luzon, etc.  The waterways of the land are also very clear. This comparison finally led to the conclusion that this place is a natural harbor, and this place is connected to the royal capital of Annan at the top and the most important grain production base of Annan at the bottom. Whether you are going north or  Going south, the road is smooth and there are no rugged mountain roads. It can take a few days to go back and forth by land to these two places.

    This is why Tang Yin chose Thanh Hoa as his target. Here the nearby sea area is mostly deep water, and ships can move freely without worrying about the reefs. Moreover, this is the throat of Annan, with countless ships.  As soon as he arrived on the deck, Hu Kaishan's eyes were red, he looked at the land in the distance, and immediately roared: "Put down the landing ship!"

    The sailors were already on alert, with ferocious looks on their eyes.

    Qi Jingtong yelled feebly: "Don't be excited after landing, don't be excited!"

    This is a daily call, and Qi Jingtong is used to it.

    The sailors were sharpening their knives, and their eyes were all red.

    What they saw was not land, what they saw was golden soil everywhere. In the telescope, the Annan army and horses guarding the water village were not enemies, but human heads, with prices clearly marked on them and moving around.

    When they thought of this, they became excited. Silver, this is all silver. After traveling a long way here, if you don¡¯t harvest this silver, you will be worse than a pig or a dog. You are sorry for your ancestors and sorry for yourself.

    They are a group of people who can endure the loneliness at sea and are perseverant.  They dared to face the giant whale fearlessly, launched an attack, and never retreated. They swept across overseas islands and wiped out the Japanese pirates entrenched there.

    They lick blood for a living and are a group of desperadoes.

    One by one, the flat-bottomed ships dropped off the big ship. They swarmed along the rope, leaving behind the landing ships one by one.

    Immediately, on the sea.  Hundreds of ships launched their attack, and following the tide, the flat-bottomed ship washed directly onto the beach.

    As soon as he landed, Qi Jingtong urgently ordered his people to raise the flag. He was afraid that the excited sailors would attack without permission, so he began to order everyone to assemble.

    And Hu Kaishan, dressed in mail and holding a giant axe, began to yell and curse: "Listen to Qi Qianhu's good advice, he will die for me, assemble, assemble, whoever dares to attack without permission, I will throw him to the ground."  Go to the sea and feed the fish.¡±

    After a lot of swearing, the extremely reluctant sailors gathered together.

    Immediately, Hu Kaishan took the lead and launched the charge.

    "Kill! Kill!"

    In fact, the Annan people never thought that the Ming army would appear here, and the Annan army guarding here was by no means an elite.

    They were a little confused. Even before the Japanese guards landed, they didn't know what was going on. But when the shouts of killing broke out and the Japanese guards came like a tide, rushing to kill them, Annan realized that the enemy was attacking.

    They resisted vigorously.

    But here, there is not much defensive offensive. What is even more frightening is that the opponents rush towards each other like crazy. Their killing techniques are extremely skilled. They form a team of three or five people. The first person is holding a big shield, followed by  Spearmen, spears thrust out from behind the shield, flanked by knives on both sides. The fire gunmen of the rear team obviously have no use at this time.

    "These ferocious people are like a group of butchers, skilled and ferocious. One team kills one person, and another team has already rushed forward. Hundreds of such teams take turns to charge. In an instant, the ground is covered with corpses.

    The Sancai Formation has been improved. The terrain here is narrow and cannot be used. Therefore, the small Sancai Formation is used, with five or six people in a team. Each team has become a harvesting machine of human heads.

    But the most terrifying thing was that the Annan people had just gathered to form a formation to resist. The man at the front was a man as big as a hill. The man was tall and covered with armor. He had two giant axes in his hands and rushed in crazily.  Annan Army Formation. Suddenly, a gap was torn out in the dense Annan Army Formation. Behind them, countless crazy sailors came and kept widening the gap.

    This is the simplest tactic, it is simple and efficient at the same time.

    They joined forces and turned into a sharp sword. Hu Kaishan pierced the tip of the sword. The sailors quickly swarmed up and fought a bloody path. Finally, they divided the Annan people and then encircled them.

    The scary thing is not just that. Not only are the sailors not afraid of death, but they have also undergone rigorous training. They are actually as strong as cattle. Fighting with cold weapons consumes physical strength, and in this era, no matter what  In the Ming Dynasty or anywhere else, the vast majority of people, because they could not get adequate nutritional intake, nine out of ten people were sallow and thin. Just like in later generations, the Francons were tall and strong, but  In this era, the common height of Francois was only a little over 1.6 meters.

    Therefore, when Francois fought, they were often willing to recruit knights, because most of the knights had fiefs, could barely eat enough, and could adapt to fierce fighting on the battlefield. Even the famous Tang army in ancient China mostly recruited good family members to fight.  , the so-called good family members are actually people with certain assets.

    This group of sailors is an exception. They eat a lot of meat, especially fish, and can eat enough for three meals. They also undergo rigorous training every day. They are tenacious and extremely tough.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Slender and slender, just like in later generations, Francois were tall and strong, but in this era, the common height of Francois was only a little over one and a half meters tall.
