Chapter 718: Chu Maoguang's Doubt

The Sulu Kingdom referred to by Yang Feng was a ruling center in later generations with the Sulu Islands in the Philippines. The areas sometimes include the Sulu Islands, Palawan Island, etc. and an emirate that believed in the religion in the northeast of Sabah, Malaysia.

Its political system is the sultan system of ****. The three kings and princes who hold the main rights of the Sulu State are, namely the East King, the West King and the Dong King, among which the East King has the greatest power.

However, since 1578, with the invasion of the Spanish, Sulu became a Spanish colony. Although the original nobles of Sulu have been constantly inciting the local people to resist for decades, those poorly equipped people are no match for Spanish soldiers at all, and every resistance is brutal suppression.

In Yang Feng's view, this period is the best time for the Ming Dynasty to get involved in the Philippine Peninsula.

As Yang Feng explained the situation of Sulu Kingdom, Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao's uncle and nephew became more and more impressed. Unexpectedly, the Marquis actually knew the situation of the small country in Nanyang thousands of miles away. This really surprised them.

Half an hour later, Yang Feng came down and said to the two: "I have already explained the situation in Sulu Kingdom almost completely. Now you have anything else to ask questions if you don't understand."

Cao Bianjiao couldn't help but say, "Mr. Marquis, I heard rumors outside that you grew up in Nanyang, is that right?"

Yang Feng nodded: "Yes, my ancestors were the people of the former Song Dynasty. Because they were dissatisfied with the Mongolian and Tartars occupying our Central Plains, their family moved to Nanyang to avoid disaster. They only returned to the Ming Dynasty a few years ago."

"It's no wonder."

Cao Bianjiao suddenly realized it, but then said again.

"Is it just that the Marquis can ask the Marquis to tell you what the Spanish had in Sulu's power and the detailed distribution of their troops."

Yang Feng shook his head, "I don't know this, I have to rely on ourselves for everything."

"By our own?"

Cao Wenzhao, who was standing aside, grabbed this sentence keenly and asked in surprise: "Marty, do you want to go in person when you go to Sulu Kingdom this time?"

"Of course, are you not welcome?" Yang Feng smiled.

"no……"

Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao's uncle and nephew were a little confused. Yang Feng, as the commander of the Great Governor of the South, commanded a army of tens of thousands, and was also a dignified marquis. His status was so noble that he actually wanted to go to Sulu with them to fight with him?

"Marty, you must not." Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao's uncle and nephew shouted out together.

Cao Wenzhao quickly said, "Marty, you are the commander of the army. Every move is related to the safety of Fujian, Jiangnan and other places. It is a man of a thousand gold. How can you be suspected personally? If there is any accident, it is difficult to blame for the two men who are lowly and have a lot of death!"

Cao Bianjiao also advised: "Yes, Marquis, if you need the Marquis to personally fight in a small place, what's the use of me?"

Seeing the uncle and nephew persuading each other hard, Yang Feng also pondered.

During this period, the total population of Sulu State was only 200,000 to 300,000, and the Spanish would probably not have much military force in Sulu State. It would be almost the same for Cao Wenzhao’s uncle and nephew to go. If he had to let himself take action in everything, what would he use to these generals under his command?

Moreover, Yang Feng could also see that the uncle and nephew were very excited to make contributions because of the new arrival. If he personally went to the army, most of the people would be theirs, so the two of them were naturally not happy.

Thinking of this, Yang Feng nodded slowly: "Since you two have the intention to serve the country, it is difficult for me to stop it. Let's leave the Sulu Kingdom to you."

Seeing Yang Feng agreeing, the two were overjoyed and bowed together: "Thank you, Marquis, for your kindness!"

The preparations for the expedition are a very tedious task. Whether it is the preparation of the army's food, equipment, weapons, medicines, and even medicines, it can force the officers of the baggage battalion to circle.

It’s just as the saying goes, it’s easy to do things with money. With a lot of money in hand and a modern society with almost a large amount of supplies behind it, Cao Wenzhao’s uncle and nephew were ready to go to war in just about ten days.

Not to mention that Cao Wenzhao's uncle and nephew went to the Sulu Kingdom to invade some criticism within the Jiangning Army.

"Bang……"

The door was pushed open from outside and a figure strode in.

Geng Bingyi, who was talking to several officers, turned his head and looked at the person. He cursed angrily, "What are you doing? If you have any anger, run to the marquis and run to me. Why do you go crazy?"

The person who came was none other than Chu Maoguang, the commander of the third battalion.

Chu Maoguang strode to Geng Bingyi and sat on a wooden bench next to him and shouted: "I don't accept it... I feel unhappy. Why can the uncle and nephew of the Cao family go to the Sulu Kingdom just after they arrived, but we can only stay here to guard the house? Or is the Fifth Battalion really better than us?"

Looking at the resentful Chu Maoguang, Geng Bingyi glanced at him with a squinted look and said slowly: "Why did they get this mission? I don't know. I only know that our soldiers have always put military orders first.

If you haven't received the order yet, you can fight no matter how much you fight, but if the marquis gives the order, we will have to obey. Do you still understand this point?"

"Of course I know, but... but I just don't accept it." Chu Maoguang looked unwilling, "Brother Geng, tell me, it's been almost two years since he came to Fujian. Apart from the battle in Fuzhou and the battle in Relan Chacheng, what have we done? In addition to training and training, I'm almost bored. If this continues, I..."

"What do you want to do if this continues?"

A voice sounded at the door and a man strode in.

After seeing the visitor, Chu Maoguang, who had originally looked unfair, shuddered and almost jumped up, saluted to the visitor and shouted: "I have met the Marquis!"

Geng Bingyi and the officers around him were no exception. He quickly stood up and saluted Yang Feng.

After Yang Feng walked in, he glanced at Chu Maoguang with a smile: "Okay, Chu Maoguang, you have improved these days and have learned to complain. It is amazing that even this marquis dares to arrange the military orders of this marquis!"

At this time, Chu Maoguang did not have the previous slutty spirit of fearlessness. He smiled and said, "Where is the Marquis saying that, how dare you question your military order? Bei Zhi is just... I am just eager to fight, so I come over to chat with Brother Chu Maoguang."

"chat?"

Yang Feng said angrily: "Yes, you can start shouting that you are not convinced when you chat. Tell me, who are you, Chu Maoguang, who are you?"

"I...I..."

Chu Maoguang lowered his head and stopped talking.

Seeing Chu Maoguang who was dejected by Cui, Yang Feng glared at him with a fierce look and scolded, "When will you be more mature? Don't think that after winning a few battles with me, you really think that you are the eldest brother, you are the second brother. If you really want to say that you are still far from commanding independently. If you don't say anything else, you may not be as good as Cao Wenzhao's uncle and nephew."

"No way?"

"What?"
