Nanyang Old Port, the setting sun shines in the evening.
Corpses and broken pieces of wood floated in the sparkling light. Hooks were hung on the corpses and they were pulled. The sergeant stabbed them with a spear and made sure they were dead before they were fished out.
The sun and moon flags fluttered in the wind, and the sea breeze whistled.
Qianhu Lu Tong came over and reported to Deputy Commander Wu Sansheng and others: "The bandit leader Hua Hu must not be found."
Wu Sansheng frowned slightly and waved his hand.
Xiong Yulin was a little shocked: "He actually let him run away!"
Pang Donghai waved his fan: "He must be hiding somewhere on the sea, maybe under the wood chips or under the corpse. It's just that time doesn't wait for me. This person will definitely escape after entering the night."
Dong Dalu disagreed: "Hua Beard is just an insignificant figure. The real enemy is Su Qianla. As long as Su Qianla is eliminated, everything will be easy."
Wu Sansheng nodded, with a solemn look in his eyes: "According to the intelligence from the Security Bureau and the Navy, Su Qianla has colluded with desperadoes from Java, Majapahit, Managa and other countries. The momentum is huge, and his military strength has exceeded Thirty thousand, which is much more than the number of the Navy in Old Port."
Bei Fan snorted, quite dissatisfied: "What desperados? If Majapahit, Manlajia and other soldiers were not directly involved behind this, I would take off my head and play Cuju for you!"
Wu Sansheng did not deny it, but he also did not nod.
Dong Dalu and Pang Donghai looked at each other, and they knew very well that Su Qianla only had a few thousand natives and could not attract 30,000 people anyway. Since the intelligence said it was 30,000, it only meant that someone had given Su Qianla Gan assassination supports, and this support is carried out secretly, rather than openly.
Su
Gan La's opposition to the Ming Dynasty was not without reason, and there was no reason at all.
The story begins in the ninth year of Jianwen's reign.
At that time, there was a small country to the west of the Tarara Kingdom in Sumen, named the Orphan. The people of this Guo family all have "tattoos" on their faces, and their king is called the Flower Faced King.
In the ninth year of Jianwen, the Huamian King attacked Sumentara. King Zainuli Abidin of Sumatara was poisoned by an arrow and died. Suodan Hannan Abizhen, who was only sixteen years old, had no way to control the overall situation, let alone Revenge for Zainuri Albidin.
The princess of Albidin in Zainuli stood up and said: Whoever can kill the Flower Face King to avenge the king and restore the lost land, she will marry him and respect him as the king.
As a result, a fisherman stood up, led his men to kill the Flower Face King, married the princess of Sumatra, and became the new king.
In December of the 10th year of Jianwen, the former king's son, Suodan Hannan Abizhen, became more and more powerful, so he raised an army and killed the fisherman "adopted father" and took back the throne of the king.
The fisherman died, but the fisherman's son Su Ganla did not die. Instead, he escaped with a group of diehard loyalists and strength, always hoping to find an opportunity to kill Suodan Hanan Abi Town and become the king of Sumen Dara again.
It stands to reason that it is not Su Qianla's fisherman father who was killed by the Ming Dynasty. Even if Su Qianlao wanted to hold a grudge, he would not be able to hold it against the Ming Dynasty. But Su Qianla didn't think so, because the Ming Dynasty recognized Suo Dan Hannan in the spring of the 11th year of Jianwen's reign. The king's status must be conquered.
Su Qianla, who recognized the legitimacy of the king of Suodan Hannan Abizhen and claimed to be the legal heir, naturally hated the Ming Dynasty, believing that the Ming Dynasty made no distinction between right and wrong and bullied others.
The bullied Su Qianla, under the intervention and operation of some people,
Naturally, he was chosen as the leader of the resistance against the Ming Dynasty, and gathered a large number of people to prepare for a decisive battle with the Ming Dynasty Nanyang Navy.
Wu Sansheng didn't quite understand what the court was thinking. The situation of Su Menda La had not yet been settled, so why did it rush to recognize the status of Suodan Hannan Abi Town? After all, Suodan Hannan Abi Town's attitude towards the Ming Dynasty It is not considered friendly. After all, Jiugang and Sumatra are next to each other, and the two sides have frictions from time to time, and the person who handles these frictions is Suodan Hannan Abi Town.
It's hard to say whether Sumenta, who is ready to move, is staring at the land of Old Port, greedily longing for something.
However, the court agreed and supported him.
Shi Jinqing was waiting on the shore of the port. When he saw Wu Sansheng and others arriving, he quickly stepped forward and said, "I just received news that Su Qianla has made some changes, and tens of thousands of troops have begun to mobilize."
Wu Sansheng's expression turned solemn.
We must know that the total strength of the Old Port Navy, garrison and Nanyang Navy is only 13,000. However, it is very difficult for more than 10,000 people to defend the seven cities of Old Port and protect the nearly 40,000 people and indigenous people of Old Port.
Pang Donghai looked at Wu Sansheng: "In this case, the people should be allowed to take refuge in the city. We will guard the city and use the strength of the strong city to deal with the enemy."
Xiong Yulin was quite dissatisfied with Pang Donghai's conservatism: "We should concentrate our forces and take the initiative to attack. With the Ming army's combat power, let alone 30,000 people, so what if they are 100,000? They are not the elite of the Wala Tatars, but They are just a group of barbaric natives. As long as their main force is defeated, everything will be easy."
Dong Dalu looked at Pang Donghai and Xiong Yulin who were arguing. A man who wanted to protect the old port to the greatest extent.
One of them wants to destroy the enemy as much as possible, one focuses on active defense, and the other focuses on active charging.
These two idiots, don't you know how to combine offense and defense?
Just when Wu Sansheng was about to speak, Shi Jinqing stamped his feet: "What, Su Qianla didn't lead his troops to kill at Old Port, but towards Sumatra..."
"ah?"
Xiong Yulin, Pang Donghai and others were stunned.
Wu Sansheng took a step forward, stared at Shi Jinqing and asked, "Are you sure?"
Shi Jinqing nodded heavily: "That's right!"
"Damn it, can you still play like this?"
Wu Sansheng smiled.
Dong Dalu, Xiong Yulin and others became even more excited. Damn, Ming Dynasty had already thought about occupying Sumen Daza, but there was never a suitable opportunity.
At the beginning of this year, the imperial court conferred the title of new king of Sumentaras, which made it extremely difficult for the Ming Dynasty to plot against Sumentaras again. Wu Sansheng even thought that there would be no chance of defeating Su Mentala, but unexpectedly, this opportunity came just as he said it.
Su Qianla actually helped Daming a big favor...
The new king of Sumatra, Suodan Hannan Abizhen, could not even deal with Su Ganla's remnants of troops, let alone Su Ganla's 30,000 troops.
"It won't be long before the Su clan will be destroyed. This is the Ming Dynasty's opportunity!"
Pang Donghai said solemnly.
Wu Sansheng nodded solemnly: "Now all the navy sergeants have returned to the team, and all the Jiugang sergeants have assembled, ready to go out at any time! This time, we not only want to eliminate Su Ganla, but also occupy Sumatra, including Nanweili."
Nanweili is west of Sumatra and is the westernmost end of the strait. Since we are going to fight, we naturally have to solve them all in one go.
If Ming Dynasty wants to continue its long voyage, it must have a solid and unbreakable base in Nanyang.
A stronghold must hold the most critical strait.
Who comes in and who comes out in the future will be decided by Daming!
The Xuanwei Department of Jiugang and the Navy of Jiugang began general mobilization, and Shi Jinqing also assembled the troops of Jiugang to begin a comprehensive defense to prevent remnants and pirates from attacking the old port.
Su Qianla was indeed attacking Sumenda La, out of revenge and in name.
Although Su Qianla could not completely control all the armies, these people knew that they had to use Su Qianla's name to act. Once his true identity was exposed, the war would burn to most of Southeast Asia.
Su Qianla was a paranoid avenger and an angry and cruel man. He led 30,000 troops to attack Sumatra. Although the new king, Suodan Hannan Abizhen, had some strength, his troops were less than 30,000 in total. One thousand and five, plus there is no city defense, there is no chance to hold on.
The course of the war is not worth mentioning, it was just a one-sided massacre.
Suodan Hannan Abi Zhen was captured. He stared at Su Ganla with red eyes and shouted: "You can't kill me. I am the king conferred by the Ming Emperor. I have the canonization edict of the Ming Emperor. If you kill I, the Ming Dynasty, will never spare you!"
Su Qianla picked up the harpoon and walked step by step towards Suodan Hannan Abi Town: "Da Ming? You still want to rely on Daming to save us now. How ridiculous! Suo Dan Hannan Abi Town, you have betrayed the agreement. You are no longer a prince, why do you want to kill my father and seize the throne!"
Suodan Hannan Abizhen looked at the ferocious Su Ganla, knowing that he would definitely die, so he simply let go and shouted: "Your father is just a fisherman, why should he be the king! You are just a fisherman's son, a lowly person, How can it be
Is it a royal family? "
"Go to hell!"
Su Ganla stabbed the harpoon into the chest of Suodan Hannan Abizhen, watched the blood flow out, and shouted: "Breach of trust will not lead to a good death!"
Suodan Hannan Abi was killed, and Sumenta's country was destroyed.
Su Ganla announced the abolition of the country's name of Sumatra and established the Fisherman Sea Kingdom. Before the Ming Dynasty could take over Nanfuli, Su Ganla led his troops to devour Nanfuli, and continued to annex the surrounding small tribes and indigenous people. , incorporated some young and capable personnel into the army, and stared at the Xuanwei Division in Old Port.
Everyone knows that the Ming Dynasty will never be destroyed, and Nanyang will always be shrouded in the shadow of the Ming Dynasty.
Especially with the export of Ming culture and education, Confucian culture and the study of kingship had conflicts of consciousness with local Buddhism and Islam. Many royal families were more worried about the Ming Dynasty.
The Ming Dynasty garrisoned the old port and treasure ships were rampant, which made many people unable to sleep. With the destruction of Annan and the construction of ports such as Aizhou Port, the Ming Dynasty gained greater control over Southeast Asia.
When most of Bogu Island fell into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, the entire Southeast Asia began to tremble.
Although the countries in Nanyang surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and were afraid of the Ming Dynasty, they also longed for the Ming Dynasty to leave Nanyang, but they did not dare to speak out or openly oppose the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, everything went underground and secretly arranged.
Su Qianla sent men to lobby for more strength. By July 28, Su Qianla's military strength had grown to 43,000 men and more than 500 warships.
The huge military force gave Su Qianla unprecedented courage, and he decided to challenge the Ming Dynasty's majesty in Southeast Asia.
At this time, Zheng He was not in Nanyang, and those who were in Nanyang were just unknown people.
Su Qianla believes
, the Ming Navy may be powerful, but if the Xuanwei Division of Old Port is destroyed, the Ming Army will no longer have a foothold.
The people of Ming Dynasty cannot always float on the sea, they are not fish.
