The armies of the sixteen ethnic groups of the Yue Kingdom were completely defeated by the sudden attack by the People's Army. Many of them began to flee back, but the People's Army pursued and killed them all the way, leaving nearly 20,000 corpses behind.
The rest of the army had already fled in all directions, and no one knew where they were going. Seeing the tragic situation at the border, even Yue Shi and other people from Vietnam turned pale when they saw this scene, and their eyes were full of fear and fear.
If it weren't for the fact that the Yue Kingdom occupies a great geographical advantage, I am afraid that China would have been destroyed long ago. With such a strong army, what other country can fight against it.
Song Youwei looked coldly at the battlefield in front of her. She and Hu Sanniang beside her had a look of worry in their eyes. After all, they were in the country of Yue. Although the People's Army was very strong, if the sixteen ethnic groups of the country of Yue were They are also very dangerous if we take action at all costs.
Yunze felt the worries in the hearts of the two wives and comforted him softly: "Don't worry. If the sixteen tribes were united, I'm afraid that the Emperor of Yue would have stepped down long ago. Even if they united because of our external force, they would only have a slight provocation." The alliance will definitely fall apart in a short period of time. Moreover, the Sixteen Clans have long lost the support of the people. Even if they attack at all costs, how many people will not be afraid of death to help them!"
When Song Youwei and Hu Sanniang heard this, their worries suddenly became clear at this moment. Yes, they thought too much of the Sixteenth Clan. Although they brought only 10,000 people with them on this trip, their equipment was the best.
Ten thousand people are worth one hundred thousand million. The battle on the border just now has established the reputation of the People's Army. I am afraid that after this battle alone, the army of the sixteen ethnic groups in Yue will change their colors when they hear about the People's Army. How dare you have the courage to fight the People's Army?
The two women finally understood why Yunze ordered the war, not only because he wanted to demonstrate China's national prestige, but also because he wanted to use this war to shock the entire sixteen tribes.
Sometimes, when you should be strong, you have to be strong. If you have the strength, why should you be timid? If this is the case, it will only make others think you are easy to bully. After all, this border interception is probably just a show of strength given to China by the Sixteen Clans.
It's a pity that they underestimate China too much and think too highly of themselves, and they don't understand Yunze, the emperor of China. If they are trying to make excuses, they might be a little helpless here.
Being tough from the front is playing into Yunze's hands, isn't it?
The two women looked back at Yunze, with deep love in their eyes. They found that as long as their husbands were around, no matter how difficult the problem was, no matter how big the difficulties were, they could be easily solved. In front of their husbands, it was like Nothing can trouble him.
Thinking that their husband stood at the top of everyone in just a few years, they felt a sense of pride in their hearts. This was the man they fancied.
Seeing the deep love between the two women, Yunze also felt a surge of tenderness in his heart. If it weren't for the large army surrounding him, he would have really wanted to hold these two lovely wives in his arms and love them.
Not far away, Yue Zhen Ning Zhen looked at Song Youwei and Hu Sanniang, and saw the two women flirting with a guard. She vaguely felt that something was wrong. Unfortunately, she was far away and could not see Yunze's appearance clearly.
But looking at the figure, she always felt a little familiar, and there was a guess in her mind that even she couldn't believe. However, she quickly gave up this guess. It was really too crazy, and even she couldn't believe it. Can't believe it.
The team set off again, and this time there was no obstacle. The 10,000 escorting army sent Yunze and others hundreds of miles away, deep into the territory of the Vietnamese army.
Moreover, after the escorting troops entered, they did not evacuate, but stayed in place. This situation made Yue Zhi frown, with a somewhat complicated expression on his face.
She knew that China was probably eyeing the Yue Kingdom. The best outcome this time would be to wipe out the sixteen ethnic groups and make the Yue Kingdom a vassal state. The worst outcome would be that the Yue Kingdom would be incorporated into the territory of China.
But what choice did she have? If the entire Yue Kingdom does not change, it may be completely destroyed by the sixteen tribes. The status of the Yue Emperor exists in name only, but in fact it doesn't matter whether he wants it or not.
Yunze's team continued to rush towards the capital of the Yue Kingdom. The capital of the Yue Emperor was in Dali, and Dali originally belonged to the Duan family of the sixteen tribes, and the Gui land above Dali belonged to the He family.
What previously blocked Yunze's army from entering the Yue Kingdom was a coalition of sixteen ethnic groups. The leader was from the Agule ethnic group in Myanmar. Not long after Yunze entered the land of Yungui, it will take about ten days to reach Dali, the capital of Yue.
At the same time, among the Agule tribe in Burma, deputy chiefs of the sixteen tribes gathered at this time. This time they came from the Chinese army stationed directly in the country of Yue.
However, only six tribes were actually organized this time, the Duan family in Yundi, the He family in Guidi, the Agule tribe in Burma, the Ruan tribe in Annan, the Hamar tribe in Siam, and the Ruiduan tribe in Jianzhai.
Because the remaining ten tribes were far away from the capital center of the Yue Kingdom, their interests had long been separated from the Yue Kingdom. They had even established themselves as kings and had not paid attention to the Yue Emperor for a long time.
If the location of the Yue Emperor was not too far away from them and their power could not be extended, they might have just hired the Yue Emperor. Of course, there are other tribes who disagree.
Therefore, the ten tribes became their own land emperors. If not, they felt threatened when they heard that the Yue Emperor asked for help from China and was preparing to rule the entire Yue Kingdom. They would not have joined the alliance of the sixteen tribes.
It's a pity that the 50,000 people they had gathered together through the efforts of their sixteen tribes actually killed more than 20,000 people at the border, and now less than 30,000 people have escaped back.
The faces of the sixteen clans were all ugly now, and they all looked at the leader, Agule of Burma. He was the person in charge this time, and everyone wanted the clan leader of Agule to give everyone an explanation.
"Agule, you said that the Chinese army is vulnerable, you said that the Chinese army is weak and incompetent, but why did they dare to charge at our army of 50,000 people with 20,000 people? Not only that, they also killed more than 20,000 of us. .Shouldn’t you give us an explanation for this matter!”
Duan Hong, the deputy patriarch of the Duan family in Yundi, looked at Agule with an angry voice. The ones who died most this time were the soldiers gathered by his Duan family.
They dispatched four thousand men, and three thousand died. The total strength of his entire Duan family was only ten thousand. Even though the Sixteenth Clans may be regarded as big clans, their own military strength is insufficient.
In addition to the small population, the main reason is that there is no war and they do not want to raise too many troops. Of course, if they really want to organize an army, everyone in their tribe can actually form an army.
If we really want to organize ourselves, we can still pull together a team of hundreds of thousands of people.
After all, there are hundreds of thousands of direct members of the Duan family, not counting the nearly one million people living in the Duan family's territory.
The other tribes are almost the same as the Duan family, with an army of only more than 10,000 people. However, the actual army that can be raised is hundreds of thousands, or even nearly a million.
Of course, these troops were pulled up by force, and the real battle remains to be seen.
"That's right, Agule, if you don't give us an explanation today, we will never finish this matter with you."
"That's right, you caused us to lose thousands of troops in vain and caused us heavy losses. How can we calculate this!"
The remaining clan leaders all pointed their fingers at the Agule clan leader, and the anger in their eyes reached the extreme.
"Everyone, if you don't want to have a good talk, then I can only ask you to leave. If you want to have a good talk, then we will have a good talk. If you think you can solve the current predicament, then you can leave."
"But don't forget, what is the intention of the Emperor of Yue in inviting the Chinese army to settle in? He wants to eliminate us one by one. If we unite, we still have a chance to deal with the Emperor of Yue. The more we act independently, the closer we will be to destruction. It’s not that far away. Don’t forget, the Emperor of Yue still has a hundred thousand troops at his disposal.”
Agule looked coldly at the deputy clan chiefs. His words made the noisy people stop making noise. Although there was displeasure on their faces, they still looked at Agule.
Although the Emperor of Yue lost power, the generals who controlled an army of 100,000 people still loved the Emperor of Yue. Otherwise, the Emperor of Yue might have stepped down long ago. Even if they don't seize power, they can make the identity of the Yue Emperor disappear in the Yue Kingdom.
Kang Zhi, the commander in charge of the 100,000-strong Yue army, was the grandfather of the Yue Emperor. The Yue Emperor's mother was the other party's daughter. It was precisely because of this that the Yue Emperor was able to secure his throne.
"Then what do you think we should do? The 50,000-strong army was beaten by 20,000 people and only 20,000 were left. We can't defeat them. How can we fight against them!" One of the deputy chiefs looked at Agule coldly.
Hearing this, Agule looked at the other party coldly, and taunted with a trace of sarcasm on his lips: "We can't defeat 20,000 of them, how can we defeat 10,000 of them? Don't forget, we have an army of millions. Any of us A family with only 100,000 people can organize an army of 1.6 million people. Is it difficult to destroy them?"
"Speaking of which, the Emperor of Yue is also stupid. He actually allowed the Chinese army to enter the country of Yue. Doesn't he just give us an excuse to destroy him? Taking this opportunity, we will also destroy the 100,000 troops in his hands. .Without the Emperor of Yue, we all go our own way, isn’t it good?”
As Agule said these words, a look of emotion appeared on the faces of the fifteen deputy clan leaders.
Although they are independent in their own affairs and act as local emperors in their own territory, they are not as happy as being emperors themselves. The reason why they did not dare to proclaim themselves emperor was because there was a Yue Emperor suppressing them.
If any one of them becomes self-reliant, others may take the opportunity to find an excuse to destroy him. Now, if they directly destroy the Yue Emperor, then they will not leave any excuse for others to become emperors on their own.
"Okay... then we will go back and prepare. By then, we will organize an army of 100,000 to join. If we have an army of 1.6 million, I don't believe that we can't destroy the Chinese army..." Some people couldn't resist the temptation and were the first to respond. .
Following his voice, others quickly joined in. Who wouldn't want to have the opportunity to stand on their own feet.
As for the 100,000-strong army, although they only have more than 10,000 people at their disposal, there are millions of civilians directly under them, and some even reach 2 to 3 million. It is still possible to raise an army of 100,000 people.
As long as they can be emperor, they are willing to raise an army of 100,000 people. Some people are even thinking that after the Yue Emperor is gone and they establish themselves as emperors, they will then find ways to attack other tribes. Unify the entire Yue Kingdom.
These deputy chiefs left excitedly. Everyone has their own thoughts, but they are all enthusiastic now. Prepare to organize an army of 100,000 and launch an attack on the People's Army. By the way, the Yue Emperor was killed.
While they were plotting, Yunze, Song Youwei and Hu Sanniang came to Dali City with 10,000 people's troops. Regarding the arrival of the people's army, the people of Dali City behaved even more differently.
Some people are scared, while others are curious. Knowing that the Chinese people live a happy life, they are full of yearning for the People's Army.
As the Ministry of Intelligence penetrated the Yue Kingdom, many rumors spread throughout the Yue Kingdom. Many people who fled from the Yue Kingdom to China secretly returned to the Yue Kingdom and told Yue about their experiences in China. The people of the country spread the news to ten people, and from ten to a hundred people.
This is actually what Yunze instructed Luo Qingcen to do. Those Yue people have also been specially trained. Their role is to come to Yue and arouse public opinion among the people.
It was sown among the people of Yue that China was a beautiful country. If the people wanted to live a good life, they would either move to China or let Huaxia carry out reforms for Yue.
Long before Yunze came to Vietnam, this kind of public opinion was secretly spreading more and more widely among the people, and many people had long been disappointed with the regime of Yue. Disappointed in the Sixteen Clans. Including the members of the Sixteen Clans themselves, as well as the people living under them.
Now, there is a wonderful country waiting for them, and a regime that can bring them a good life makes them yearn for it. It is easy to imagine how they will choose.
In this era, the Zai people still have no sense of national justice or belonging. If it were not for survival, they would not live in an ignoble existence. Otherwise, there would not have been several rebellions.
Now, if someone can lead them to the light, of course they are willing to follow. Even among the people, an organization called the Huaxia Sect quietly emerged. Within a short period of time, its followers had grown to millions, and it was about to sweep across the entire Yue Kingdom.
The leaders of the sixteen ethnic groups in the Yue Kingdom have not discovered this situation yet. It is true that this matter has developed too fast and in a very secretive way.
After Yunze entered the Yue Kingdom, those from the Huaxia Sect began to spread the news that the Huaxia Army was here to help everyone live a good life. This also made those fearful people slowly begin to believe in the Chinese Army, and even fervently hoped that the Chinese Army could take over the entire Yue Kingdom.
In fact, this move was a thought invasion that Yunze thought of. Although this approach is a bit evil, it is better than shedding too much blood to capture the country of Yue.
As the undercurrent of the Yue Kingdom surged, Yunze, Song Youwei and Hu Sanniang entered the palace. The 10,000 people's army was divided into two groups to guard the palace and outside the palace.
This was what Yunze asked Song Youwei to ask for for his own safety. Even if Yue Zhi showed enough sincerity, he could not guarantee what the Yue Emperor wanted. It's better to be cautious.
In this regard, the Vietnamese army coach Kang Zhi once expressed opposition and even almost had a conflict with the People's Army.
After all, the people's army stationed in the palace was tantamount to hijacking their emperor. How could he feel relieved. However, after Yue Shi showed up and expressed that it was the Emperor of Yue's wish, Kang Zhi had no choice but to compromise.
But the People's Army was also surrounded by his 100,000 troops in the palace. Yunze didn't care about Kang Zhi's army of one hundred thousand. If the other party really wants to take action against them, Yunze promises to make him regret it.
Not to mention his army of 100,000, even if it is an army of one million, he can destroy it. Not to mention, there were countless agents from the Intelligence Department inserted into Kang Zhi's army of 100,000. These are agents that have been developed over several years.
With these agents around, Kang Zhi's army is always under his surveillance. The reason why Yunze chose to settle in the palace was because he wanted to meet the Yue Emperor. Only by talking to him personally could he ensure that the next step of the plan could be implemented smoothly.
He has been laying out the plans for the Yue Kingdom for so long, and he is just waiting for these plans to be realized one by one, and in the end, he can win the Yue Kingdom without any blood.
The first thing Yunze wants to do is to fully cooperate with Yue in trade. Only by opening up trade can we ensure that the people of Yue will have a deeper understanding of the power of China.
Only when the people of Yue make money will they yearn for China even more. In addition to trade, there is also various technical assistance.
Of course, all of this must be under your own control. He doesn't want to make wedding clothes for others.
Because of the public opinion war, Yunze is not worried about this. He only wants to use the Emperor of Yue to bring real benefits to the people of Yue.
