Chapter 243 The two countries are at war(1/2)

The old general of Champa, Shilisadowamo, looked red and brought Fanlai and a group of generals to repay his merits.

After everyone saluted, Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and said, "No need to be too polite. Fan came, what is the result of the battle?"

Fanlai bowed and said, "Your Highness King Hui, Duke Jingguo, our army won a great victory in this battle, and wiped out five hundred enemy elephant soldiers, five thousand cavalry, more than ten thousand infantry, thousands of other prisoners, and captured war horses.

There are countless weapons and equipment, and the results have not been fully counted yet."

Zhu Qizhen said, "Thank you all, let's fight back against Annan next!"

Fanlai conveyed these words, and the generals of Champa began to whisper.

Before the arrival of the Ming army, they were almost desperate.

Now all the land occupied by the Annan people has been reclaimed, and in theory, the purpose has been achieved.

However, everyone is a military general and has been bullied by the Annan people for so long. Who can resist the temptation of siege of siege?

After everyone discussed, Fan came forward and replied: "Your Highness, we are willing to follow the heavenly soldiers and continue to go north, but... we need to report to His Majesty Mahapancha..."

Zhu Qiyu nodded and expressed his understanding. After all, he is the army of Chameng. For such a big thing, he needs to obtain permission from the Chameng King.

"It's good that way. You send a quick horse to deliver the letter. The entire army will rest for five days, and then continue to go north after five days!"

Fanlai bowed and said, "Affect the order!"

The army was resting on the front line, but the King of Chameng did not wait for the order, but instead waited for the envoys of Annan Kingdom.

Chen Ying came in with two people and a man in Annan's official uniform.

"Your Highness, the scout caught a female kid who claimed to be an envoy of Annan and said he was here to negotiate."

Zhu Qiyu looked at the man, about 40 years old, with his hands tied up, but there was no expression of horror on his face, but was very calm and had a kind of arrogance of a civil servant.

"Annan Envoy Ruan Qing, pay homage to His Highness, King Hui of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Qiyu asked, "Are you here to negotiate?"

Ruan Qing looked at the guards beside him and said, "In the words of you Han people, when two countries are fighting, they will not be killed. Could it be that the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Kingdom treats the envoys of other countries in this way?"

Zhu Qizhen smiled calmly and said, "You are right in Chinese. Come on, let's loosen your ties!"

Chen Ying waved his hand and ordered people to untie the rope, but he was worried about Zhu Qiyu's safety, so he stood aside.

Ruan Qing rubbed his wrists that were strangled to purple and said, "Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty once appointed Annan as a country that does not conquer, but now he is launching a lot of war. What does your Highness mean to do this incompetent and not follow the ancestral system?"

This person is indeed very attained by Han culture. He brought up Zhu Yuanzhang as soon as he came out and used the ancestral system to explain things.

Chen Ying hated such a person the most. He raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "What are you saying? Believe it or not, I will beat you up!"

"Believe, of course!"

Ruan Qing smiled contemptuously and continued, "I heard that His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty actually sent someone to copy the mansion of Saint Confucius. It seems that the Ming Dynasty had already thrown away the word "ritual" and treated the next envoy.

What else are you afraid of?”

"you……"

Chen Ying stepped forward, grabbed his collar, and raised his fist to hit him.

"Wait!"

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and said, "Don't be anxious first, let him talk."

Chen Ying had no choice but to let go and retreat aside.

Ruan Qing bowed to Zhu Qiyu and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, King Hui!"

"You don't have to thank me in a hypocritical way, nor do you have to say whether the ancestor system or not. Since the war has begun and if you want to negotiate, it is better to go straight to the point. Just say your requests and don't waste each other's time."

"Your Highness is a cheerful person. Since that's the case, you won't go around the corner!"

Ruan Qing took out a letter from his body and said, "This is a letter from Annan. Our Lord asks the Ming Dynasty to withdraw its troops immediately, because this is the dispute between Annan and Champa. If Champa wants peace talks, the Ming Dynasty can

As a witness.”

Zhu Qiyu opened the letter of the country, took a look, and threw it aside.

"After the war, all the occupied land in Chameng Kingdom has been reclaimed. You still want to go back. I wonder where the confidence comes from?"

Ruan Qing snorted with his nose and said, "If the Ming Dynasty does not interfere, these lands will already belong to Annan."

Zhu Qiyu has already realized it. It turns out that these civil servants were completely worried about their faces when they were quibbling.

No wonder the emperor's brother did not care about the civil minister Qingliu at all.

"Chancheng is also a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. Now that the vassal state is in trouble, the Ming Dynasty naturally cannot sit idly by. Besides, my emperor has already issued a letter to Annan. Your king is ungrateful. This is no wonder that the Ming Dynasty sent troops!

"

Ruan Qing sneered: "It sounds nice. Who doesn't know that the Ming Dynasty has coveted my Annan territory for many years. Why did the British Duke be appointed as the Prince of Jing'an? Now, he even attributed the charge to His Majesty the King. Haha

, If you want to accuse me of a crime, why not worry about it?”

Even though Zhu Qiyu had a good temper, at this time, she couldn't help but want to beat someone up.

I'm talking to you well, but you're here to talk nonsense and sarcastic. Do you think I, Zhu Qiyu, are easy to bully?

However, he is not good at doing it himself.

So, he narrowed his eyes and glanced at Fanlai.

Fan Lai was quick and immediately understood. Then he stepped forward and grabbed Ruan Qing and said, "You come out and I'll talk to you!"

Ruan Qing was anxious and hurriedly said, "His Royal Highness, is it really going to lose etiquette?"

Zhu Qiyu didn't say anything, Chen Ying sneered, "You are the envoy of Annan, so I, the Ming Dynasty, will naturally not make things difficult for you, but this is Chameng. What do people treat you, so we won't interfere. Is this the truth?

"

Ruan Qing's expression changed drastically and she hurriedly shouted: "Don't, don't... let me go, I'm an envoy, you can't do this..."

Fanlai dragged the man out without saying anything. After about a meal, he came back to report his life.

"Your Highness, that annoying guy has been thrown out of the camp!"

Zhu Qiyu nodded and asked, "The King of Champa has not replied yet?"

Fan said, "Based on the distance, it is estimated that it will be here tomorrow."

"Okay, send the order and all the staff are on standby and ready to set off at any time!"

"yes!"

The next day, the letter from the King of Chameng arrived indeed.

However, when Zhu Qiyu saw the letter, she frowned.

The Chameng King expressed deep gratitude to the Ming army in the letter, and then changed his mind and said that the soldiers were exhausted after many days of conquest. The food and grass supply in the rear was tight... In short, the letter meant that they did not intend to continue fighting.

.

Seeing this, Chen Ying couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, what is written in the letter?"

Zhu Qiyu remained silent and handed the letter to Chen Ying. After Chen Ying looked at it, he angrily slapped the table.

"What's wrong with you kings? Such a good opportunity, you actually want to withdraw it?"

Fanlai didn't expect that this would be the result. Not only him, but General Shili and others also didn't understand it.

Chameng has been bullied by Annan for a long time. Now that my elder brother is here to support me, he avenge himself. He is about to turn over and press Annan to the ground and beat him up. As a result, he said... Withdraw troops?

What a joke?

Zhu Qiyu thought quickly in his mind, what exactly does the letter from King Chameng mean...

Don’t he know that if the Ming army leaves, one day, Annan Kingdom will make a comeback.

You send me away today, yes.

When Annan's troops step into Chameng again, if you ask me to send troops, it will depend on my mood!

Although everyone expressed their discomfort, for Shi Li, Fanlai and others, since they were kingly orders, they had to be abide by them and there was no doubt.

General Shi Li had no choice but to say, "We are ordered to do things, so please understand your highness."

Fan Lai translated this sentence, Chen Ying said dissatisfiedly: "If you continue north, you can directly take Qinghua and capture the Annan royal family alive. You have thought about it. Such an opportunity is hard to come by. Is it true

Want to give up?"

Shi Li's face was full of regret and said, "The king's order cannot be violated!"

Chen Ying said with a dark face, "Your king is also Hutu. It's a great situation, but he wants to withdraw his troops. Could it be that like Emperor Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty, a female slander appeared in the court?"

Fan Lai's face was also very ugly, so he bit the bullet and translated this sentence.

General Shi Li was not angry, but said, "We don't know what happened. The most urgent thing is to return to the capital and ask His Majesty the King himself to understand."

Chen Ying said, "You can still fight without you in Shenji Camp. Leave the food and grass behind, and you can withdraw it!"

Fanlai said carefully: "His Majesty the King said that due to years of war, the domestic food shortage is severe, so... the transport of grain has been stopped. The current food is only enough for five days. Even if we withdraw our troops and leave all the food, at most

It will last for more than ten days. Please ask Your Highness, Duke Yasukuni will make plans early..."

Chen Ying said angrily: "It would be fine if you don't give it to the army, but now it's better, the food and grass are broken. What are your kings thinking?"
