Chapter 189 Attack Hue

In the Saigon battle, the 80,000 army led by the most powerful Nguyen Wenhui of the Xishan Dynasty was destroyed under the fierce attack of the First Division. Not only did the army suffer heavy losses, but they also captured Nguyen Wenhui alive. The First Division once again exerted its super combat power, with only more than 70 casualties, but it was because it was trampled to death by elephant soldiers or hit by them in the melee.

Then, the First Division began to attack the southern Annan area, preparing to completely annihilate the remaining Xishan Army and Nguyen Phuc Ying forces in the south.

It was already time for the first fleet to land in Hue with the Second Division. After capturing the coastal artillery, it quickly surrounded the entire Hue City.

At this time, at the sea, the First Fleet also encountered the "Navy" of Xishan Dynasty, and the two sides began to confront each other.

The two pirate leaders, Chen Tianbao and Mo Guanfu, were the chief and deputy generals of this "Navy Army". The two were originally from the pirates in South China. Later, due to internal strife and strong pacification from the Xishan Dynasty, they took the title of Nguyen Wenyue and established their own maritime hegemony near the Annan coastline, constantly hijacking Nguyen Phoenix and the ships of the North Zhengzhu, causing them to suffer great losses.

There are many pirates like them, and even Zheng Yi's brother Zheng Qi, but their power is not as powerful as Chen Tianbao and Mo Guanfu, so they belong to the two nominally, but they do not listen to the order.

However, this time, Nguyen Wenhui personally sent someone to ask for help from them, so they had to come. This is because Nguyen Wenhui provided them with a large sum of money and was their financial backer, so they had to come.

But when they finally came, they had already learned about the capture of Saigon. They did not dare to follow the Mekong River to attack Saigon City, but they were unwilling to lose money just like this, so they went north to Hue, wanting to ask for money from Ruan Wenyue, who claimed to be emperor. But they did not expect that they met the First Fleet here.

Both Chen Tianbao and Mo Guanfu were at a loss about the situation in front of them.

"General, these ships are all golden dragon flags under yellow. These are the naval flags of the Ming Kingdom in the south! Some brothers didn't know the depth last year, so they took a few ships to the south to try their luck, but they were targeted by these fleets, but none of them came back!" One of Chen Tianbao's subordinates said to Chen Tianbao.

"It's the Ming Navy? This is not easy to deal with! Insured, what should we do?" Mo Guanfu said while he was about to take action.

"Let's leave! Don't participate in these things, we are no match for them." Chen Tianbao thought for a while and made his own response.

"But where are we going? The south side must have been occupied by the Ming Dynasty. It seems that they are going to occupy the entire Annan. We have no place to stand in Annan." Mo Guanfu asked again.

"At worst, we can go back to the estuary of the Pearl River! Zheng Yisan and Zhang Baozai colluded with each other and cooperated with the government. There are fewer people in the estuary of the Pearl River, and we just happened to go there to be the king. If not, we will go to Fujian and Taiwan. There are also many merchant ships in Zhejiang. We can go there to go there!" Chen Tianbao said.

"That's fine, let's retreat quickly! Fortunately, they didn't fire the artillery. If they fire the artillery, we will not be able to escape!" Mo Guanfu said.

The pirate fleet quickly began to turn, and then began to move towards the estuary of the Pearl River.

"Commander, these pirates are gone. It seems that they should want to go to Guangdong." The communications soldier said to Li Haiyang on the flagship "Da Ming" of the First Fleet.

"Don't worry about them for now. We will meet these people sooner or later, but now we will transport the Royal Guard Division to the vicinity of Shenglong, and then go to trouble them after the transportation." Li Haiyang said. These pirate ships are all wise and wise. If the First Fleet does not have a transport fleet to escort, they will not be afraid of these pirate ships even if there are a transport ship, but once there are transport ships, these pirates may attack the transport ships. These Royal Guard Divisions are the top troops in the Royal Army of the Ming Dynasty, and they must not be allowed to lose money at sea.

Then, the First Fleet continued to escort the Royal Guard Division to the Beibu Gulf, preparing to advance in a place now called Shenglong and later Hanoi.

At the same time, Jinhu also adopted the same method as Tie Niu, and surrounded the city of Huhua in three queu and one.

"Your Majesty, these are all evil Chinese! They came from the Ming Kingdom in the south!" In the city of Hue, an eunuch ran to Ruan Wenyue in panic and said.

"This Ming Kingdom is indeed a country of tigers and wolves! They destroyed so many countries in the south, and now they are dealing with us again! I will never surrender! Temperance, how do you think we should deal with these guys?" Ruan Wenyue said to the ministers below in a dragon robe. At this time, he showed amazing courage and showed the domineering spirit of a generation of heroes. The domineering spirit in him led him to defeat the troops of Ruan Dynasty one after another and put him on the position of emperor.

"Your Majesty, the Ming bandits are powerful, we must mobilize all troops to resist the Ming bandits! General Longxiang has experienced many battles and is experienced and can definitely eliminate these ignorant Ming bandits!" said Ruan Wenlu. He is actually an incompetent person. His military talent cannot be compared with Ruan Wenhui and Ruan Wenyue at all, but he is very determined to fight for power and profit. Now it seems that the Xishan Army has a great advantage over Ruan Jung and Master Zheng, so he wants to compete for power with Ruan Wenhui and Ruan Wenyue. Now the Ming army is coming with great momentum, which is just right for Ruan Wenhui, who has the strongest military ability, to take the battle and consume his strength.

"Yes! But now the Ming Kou is obviously surrounding three que 1. How should we pass the news?" Ruan Wenyue asked again.

"Your Majesty, if you want to leave, you must leave! We can fight against Ming Kou's siege of three quads and one, and we can attack the west! There are still 100,000 troops in the city. Even if the firepower is insufficient, we can still hold off Ming Kou's firepower. You only need to bring a small number of elite troops out of the city!" At this time, Ruan Wenyue's other general, General Longhu, said.

Ruan Wen's couple was a little annoyed. Ruan Xingtao actually wanted to block his plan. He was about to refute it, but Ruan Wenyue waved his hand to stop him.

"A small number of elite soldiers left the city? What do you mean?" asked Ruan Wenyue.

"Your Majesty! Ming Kou is the first to come, and he is definitely not familiar with the terrain and roads here. A hundred thousand army can fight Ming Kou head-on and delay time, while you only need to take a small number of elite troops to bypass the official road where Ming Kou may be ambushed and take a small road to detour Saigon City!" said Ruan Xingtao.

"Okay! The 100,000 troops in the city of Hue will be under your command! Take control, pretend to be me, and let these Ming bandits think that I am still in the city! I will invite reinforcements, you must hold on!" Ruan Wenyue nodded and made arrangements.

"Your Majesty, I..." Ruan Wen's wife was sweating profusely. This Ruan Xingtao should have killed him alive.

"If you stick to it, I will give you more rewards! General Longhu, Huhua City depends on you!" said Ruan Wenyue.

"Your Majesty, I swear to defend the city of Shuhua to the death! Even if I am broken into pieces, I will still stop the Ming bandits!" Ruan Xingtao said.
