- From Shi'an County to Jiaozhi County, there are Yulin County and Ningyue County in between, and Shi'an County is in the northernmost part of Shi'an County, and the two sides are separated by more than 1,600 miles. It was more than a month later that the envoy from Shi'an County arrived at Jiaozhi County after all the hard work.
At this time, Huang Mingcong was not in Jiaozhi. He was attacking Zhenla with the Funan Kingdom.
It was more than a month before the news reached Huang Mingcong.
Huang Mingcong was a little embarrassed after receiving this letter from Li Xinzhi asking for help. It wasn't that he was too unwilling to rescue Li Xizhi, but he was really helpless.
The territory controlled by Huang Mingcong ranges from Jiaozhi County in the north to Nanya County in the south, thousands of miles apart. Moreover, the territories are scattered and each has its own camp, making it difficult to gather large-scale troops for battle.
Throughout Tiannan, except for the areas around Jiaozhi County where there are many Han people, there are very few Han people elsewhere. But even so, the combined registered population of the three original counties of Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen, and Rinan was only over 56,000 households, of which about two-thirds were Han residents. Later, when Linyi was pacified and four thousand households were granted, there were basically no Han people left.
Over the years, Huang Mingcong has continuously immigrated Han people from the Central Plains and Jiangnan. It can be regarded as a settled army. There are almost 37,000 households, mostly settled in the three counties of Fubo.
Therefore, the total number of Han residents in each county is less than 80,000, and the number of Han residents in Chengding is almost 120,000.
? ? 120,000 men may seem like a lot, but there are many sailors and sailors in Tiannan. There are almost more than 3,000 ships of various types in Tiannan alone, and the Han navy and crew number almost 50,000, which is close to half of Tiannan Chengding.
" Moreover, Huang Mingcong also implemented the policy of reclamation regiments in Tiannan. There were more than 200 reclamation regiments in various places, mainly Han people, which consumed a large number of adults.
Excluding various industries, Huang Mingcong has almost 34,000 troops.
The army of more than 34,000 people looks like a lot, but it is not many when it is distributed to various places. There are 2,000 troops stationed in Nanya and Yuegang to guard the shipping routes of the Strait of Malacca and the Spice Islands and cannot be moved; 4,000 troops are stationed in Rinan and Jiude to suppress the resistance forces in Linyi and cannot be moved; more than 30 leased areas are stationed. The total number of soldiers is about 5,000, with only one or two hundred at each location, so they cannot move. As for the remaining troops, there are 12,000 troops stationed in the three counties of Fubo, and 11,000 troops stationed in Jiaozhi and Jiuzhen. These are mostly for guards. The troops in the grain fields and cities could not move lightly.
This time, Huang Mingcong fought hard to mobilize 14,000 Han troops.
Of course, the entire Indochina Peninsula is not deserted. There are more than 10,000 households in Jiaozhi and Jiuzhen alone, and even more in Linyi.
In these years, Huang Mingcong continued to organize the people into households and accelerated the Chineseization of the Fan people. Under his rule, there were almost 50,000 to 60,000 Fan people, and the attached tribes had even more people. With such a large population, it is easy to recruit an army.
However, Huang Mingcong did not dare to recruit civilians in the army to prevent chaos. After all, "people who are not of my race must have different hearts" and had to guard against it.
There are more than 11,000 Fan soldiers in Tiannan. Most of them are second-line troops. They are not equipped with iron armor and crossbows. They can be regarded as a supplement to the Sui army. Huang Mingcong strictly maintained the ratio of Han soldiers to Fan soldiers at three to one, and he would not dare to recruit more troops no matter how insufficient his troops were.
So even if Huang Mingcong wanted to support Shi'an County, he couldn't do it at all.
Huang Mingcong casually put down Li Xinzhi's letter asking for help without saying anything.
At this time, Cui Renhan picked up the letter, took a quick look at it and said: "Ambassador, Shi'an County cannot save him."
Among Huang Mingcong's subordinates, Kuai Yunlie and Li Jun were in charge of Jiaozhi, Shen Ying was in charge of Rinan and Jiude, and Cui Renhan and Yang Hongli were in charge of the three counties of Fubo.
When Huang Mingcong heard this, he asked: "How can we not save him?"
Cui Renhan said: "To save Shi'an County, we must have too few troops. We must have tens of thousands of troops to go north. The situation in Tiannan makes it clear that it is too difficult to send tens of thousands of troops. Even if we can really send troops, from Jiaozhi How long will it take to travel from Hanoi City (now Hanoi City, Vietnam) to Shi'an County, a distance of 1,600 miles? When our reinforcements arrive, it's hard to say whether Li Xinzhi will be there or not. By then we will have to travel a long distance and have no stronghold. , fearing the possibility of destruction.¡±
Huang Mingcong said: "There are not many Han lands in Lingnan left. If Shi'an is lost again, the situation in Lingnan may worsen."
Cui Renhan said: "Ambassador, don't worry. As long as the sea route from Jiaozhi to China is not cut off, we will lose contact with China. When the army of Wei Gong goes south in the future, all the evil spirits and demons in Lingnan will be swept away."
Huang Mingcong was even more hesitant after hearing this.
"Xingyu (characterized by Cui Renhan), having said that, you have to be clear that the slanderous officials are killing many Han people. I am afraid that Shi'an City will be destroyed and the Han people in the city will be massacred. This city and land can be recovered, but the Han people What? It takes sixteen years to raise a man. If there are too few Han people, even if we occupy Lingnan, our rule will not be stable."Cui Renhan was stunned and asked quickly: "What does the ambassador think?"
强牺  读牺。 ¡°Send troops!¡±
"Send troops?"
"Send troops!"
Huang Mingcong looked determined and said to Cui Renhan: "We want the Han people in Lingnan to know that the court has never forgotten them, and my family is the guardian of the Han family."
Cui Renhan knew that Huang Mingcong had made up his mind, so he asked, "How will we provide the troops?"
Huang Mingcong thought for a while and then said: "I will take away four thousand Han soldiers from the three counties of Fubo, and take away all the two thousand soldiers. The armies of Yuegang and Rinan will not be moved, and the Han soldiers from Jiaozhi will take six thousand, six thousand, and so on." Take away all the Qianban soldiers and recruit the troops of each tribe, especially those from Nichinan and Jiude, there must be at least 7,000 people."
Cui Renhan was stunned and said quickly: "The Ambassador is preparing for a big fight?"
Huang Mingcong nodded.
"It is not easy to go north. Now that we are going north, we have to create a short-term peace. Li Xinzhi is in Shi'an and Qiu He is in Xiping. Only by establishing contact with the second department can we stabilize the situation in the west of Lingnan. We are in Jiaozhi Tai After a long time, I am not familiar with the counties in Guangzhou to the north, so I have to rely on Li Xinzhi, Qiu He and others."
"Then I'm afraid this battle won't be trivial!"
"Just do your best!"
This time .co*m Zhang Si. "But are there too many soldiers?"
Ten thousand Han soldiers and fifteen thousand soldiers, the ratio far exceeded the one to one cordon during wartime.
"These soldiers have nothing to do with the Lingnan officials. When they arrive in Lingnan, they are also guest soldiers and will not cause chaos."
Having said that, Huang Mingcong actually felt uneasy. How could he dare to use so many people if he had no choice but to do so?
This time, the Han soldiers took away 10,000 people, and the Fan soldiers also took away 8,000 people. The entire Jiaozhi will fall into an unprecedented emptiness. Fortunately, Huang Mingcong defeated Chenla in advance and split Funan. Otherwise, the two countries would definitely take advantage of the opportunity.
"However, the two countries cannot fight each other, but there are many savages and tribes. So Huang Mingcong asked Cui Renhan to gather the forces of the reclamation regiments in each county and give them unified command to replace the transferred forces.
If it doesn¡¯t work, we have to recruit people from the navy and sailors, but that will inevitably affect transportation, and Huang Mingcong is certainly not willing to do so. Now the entire Tiannan can provide Huang Mingyuan with 12 million tons of rice every year, and it is still rising every year. It is Huang Mingyuan's most important source of food.
Control the big one and control the owl. Huang Mingcong was unwilling to do this unless it was absolutely necessary
