In terms of running away, Zou Yana and his lackeys ran very fast, and the Shenxing Taibao was so frustrated when compared with them.
So when Cha Quan led the new army to the inner palace, although he captured all the royal family and Zou Yana's cronies, he failed to capture Zou Yana.
After realizing the danger, Chaquan sent people throughout the city to search for Zou Yana's supporters, and at the same time sent people to announce the start of the revolution to the residents in the city. He then arranged for the main force to go to the city gate to defend the city, making sure to hold the city before the Ming army arrived.
Before setting off, he sent people north to Annan to ask for help from the Ming army. Without the help of the Ming army, Cha Quan would not have the confidence to win this revolutionary war.
But now the arrow was on the string and he had no choice but to shoot. He had no way out. He could only make up his mind and call on all the new army to fight to defend the achievements of the revolution with a fatal determination.
If you don't fight, you die.
At this moment, all the members of the Champa State branch of the Renaissance Association also realized that the war had begun and the endless situation had begun. They had no way out. If they did not persist in the struggle, they would all die here and their families would be affected.
So while Zou Yana was out of the city to reorganize the army, Cha Quan and the entire Renaissance branch also did a lot of things in the city.
The first step is to eliminate the hostile defenders in the city, take control of the city gate, close the city gate, carry the defensive weapons that Zou Yana bought from the Ming Dynasty in the arsenal of the city onto the city wall, and start building fortifications.
On the other side, the New Army arrested on a large scale the corrupt officials who had previously murdered the people, as well as the powerful and senior officials of the Champa Kingdom regime. They captured them all and killed them all in one fell swoop. Those who resisted were killed directly.
After they were caught, the New Army soldiers took off their gorgeous coats, tied them up tightly, and then paraded them through the streets in groups, calling on the people who had just been insulted and attacked by the government to criticize them.
Then there are various very appealing means of appeal.
For example, distributing the proceeds from the confiscation of the homes of these rich and powerful people to the people immediately aroused looting and great enthusiasm from the people.
"We will overthrow this corrupt regime, we will knock down all these bastards who stole our property and food, and take back what belongs to us!"
"But we must be clear! This is not yet success! There are troops outside the city approaching us! If we want to keep everything we have, we must fight!"
"The reactionary army outside the city is plotting to kill us. They are trying to take back what you just took back! They will also kill all of us together!"
"Are you willing to be killed? Do you want your property and food to be robbed again?"
"Join us! Join our revolutionary army! Defend the city with us! As long as we persist until the Ming army arrives, everything will be fine!"
At this special moment, without the support of the people in the city, Chaquan and the New Army would be isolated.
Cha Quan understands the dangerous environment he is in, and knows that rather than talking about the principles of revolution, spreading out real money is more meaningful and has more trust value.
They can gain the trust and support of the people more directly, and quickly become "accomplices", bound together, and receive special bonuses.
As long as the people can be convinced that they will die without a burial place once Zou Yana is killed, they will definitely pay whatever price they can to help the revolutionary army defend the city.
Through a series of special means, the revolutionaries in the city had convinced the people of this, so they were quickly organized to collect food and store it together throughout the city, and were willing to accept the food rationing system.
Under the threat of Zou Yana outside the city, the liquidation of the reactionary forces and the integration of the revolutionary forces in the city were completed at an extremely fast speed.
Zou Yana, who was outside the city, managed to escape to the military camp and gained command of the army. When she was preparing to mobilize the army, news of unrest in the city spread like wildfire.
Generals came to inquire one after another, and officers also came to inquire one after another, trying to learn something from Zou Yana, and hoping to get his commitment and guarantee.
If Zou Yana's regime is unstable, if Zou Yana's power is shaken, what is the point of them continuing to fight with Zou Yana?
Is it better to directly help the new regime that has seized power in the city?
For example, capture Zou Yana and donate it to the new regime or something?
When it comes to the ability to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, although Zou Yana is very strong, his subordinates who have flexible moral bottom lines are not bad either. They are all foxes for thousands of years, and there is no need to sing to each other.
Zou Yana knew what these bastards wanted. Seeing them looking at him with eyes full of wealth, he could only bear the heartache and made a promise.
"There are only five thousand rebels in the city. Fight back with me and cut the rebellious thieves into pieces. Then except for the palace, everything in the entire city belongs to you. You have five days to get what you want. Everything, I won’t interfere with anything for five days.”
Zou Yana's promise reversed the situation. The officers weighed the pros and cons and felt that following Zou Yana had a higher success rate, so they decided to follow Zou Yana and help the strong win.
Under their instigation, the soldiers became more animalistic. They howled and shouted to follow Zou Yana to attack the city, and then reach the peak of their lives.
The capital of Champa State is definitely the richest place in the entire country. For these impoverished soldiers, no promise is more meaningful than this promise.
But before the army even set off, it was discovered that the food reserves were insufficient. The original food supplies were only enough for three days. Of course, this was not feasible.
If we ask officials in surrounding areas to provide food now, it will take a lot of time.
Zou Yana really couldn't afford to wait, so she simply let the soldiers go to the surrounding villages to plunder food, treating it as an advance payment to let them feel comfortable first, so that they would be more willing to use it for her.
Zou Yana's calculations were overwhelming, but the entire preparation time took more than ten days, because the farmers outside the city would not willingly hand over the food, and they would also resist.
This resulted in a mass killing of troops outside the city, which wasted a lot of time.
In more than ten days, Chaquan had already integrated the affairs in the city, quickly determined the situation in the city, and then sent someone to inform the Ming Dynasty and request support again.
Then, while observing Zou Yana's movements, he widened the moat outside the city, dug pits, and prepared to defend the city.
Before the two sides formally fought, a request for help was sent to Annan Central, and was received by Zhang Yuejing, who happened to be leading his army to observe the terrain at the border.
Then Zhang Yuejing immediately arranged for a ship to send the news to Zhongdu by water, asked Su Yonglin for his opinion, and requested permission from the Ministry of Military Affairs to send troops.
And he himself began to gather troops in the Annan Central area, and expected to mobilize an army of 30,000 troops to enter the Champa State to provide support. For this, he had to make some logistical preparations and mobilize some stored food for emergencies. .
When Zou Yana finally arrived at her capital city with her army and began to persuade Chaquan to surrender, Chaquan's message for help had already arrived in Shandong.
When Cha Quan clearly rejected Zou Yana's affectionate offensive and announced that he would draw a clear line with him and sever ties forever, Cha Quan's message for help arrived in Zhongdu.
Su Yonglin learned about the news about the Champa Kingdom as quickly as possible, and then used a stick of incense to approve Zhang Yuejing's permission to send troops, and granted Zhang Yuejing full authority to take charge of the war in the Champa Kingdom.
Then, he gave the authority to assist the Champa State to rectify its internal affairs after the war to Gao Tianlu, the Minister directly under the Central Government of Annan, and granted Gao Tianlu the special authority to integrate and mobilize resources to assist the newly established Provisional Government of the Champa State after the war. Very high trust.
Subsequently, Su Yonglin arranged for the news to be sent by land and water simultaneously, and rushed 500 miles to the direct jurisdiction of Annan Central.
At the end of May 2015 in the Republic of China, the permission from the Ministry of Military Affairs to advance troops was sent to Annan Central. Zhang Yuejing, who had already made preparations in the border area, received the order to send two sticks of incense and ordered the vanguard troops to send troops to occupy the city and go to Vijaya City. Support the new army occupying the city.
Zhang Yuejing was very worried that the new army in Champa would not be able to withstand the attack of Zou Yana's superior force, because according to reports, Zou Yana still had at least 20,000 troops at his disposal, and had already begun to mobilize additional troops from the southern town of Bintonglong. The 5,000 new troops were absolutely superior in strength. Disadvantaged.
However, the actual situation is that at this moment, the new army occupying the city is fighting really well.
