Chapter 232 My man
"Thanks to the move in Saigon, otherwise I really don't know what to do." Chen Baiyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her sister introduce the situation in Saigon. If she stayed there, he really didn't know how to experience this storm like a few years ago. Similarly, he didn't want her sister to have a rift with Wang Yisheng because of this, and it would be difficult for lovers to get married.
The sound of guns and cannons came faintly outside the house, and there were still artillery shells in the distance that cut through the light trajectory left by the night sky, looking like a meteor. These lines were reflected on Shen Yazhi's bright and slightly tired eyes, arousing a little helplessness.[]
"The Dragon King has begun to attack Phnom Penh. Although a division stationed in Cambodia has already entered Phnom Penh after receiving the order, it does not seem to have an advantage in the number of people. What's more important is that it is dark at this time. Even if the Air Force takes the risk of dispatching, it will be difficult to do much in the surrounding dense forest areas." Chen Baiyu's tone brought a hint of worry.
"I believe in the ability of Commander Xu Ting and Governor Suji." Chen Yazhi said without hesitation. She actually knew the meaning of his brother's words above. The purpose was to let her evacuate to a safe area by airship as soon as possible, and it would be best to return to Saigon, South Vietnamese Province, and even Hanoi, North Vietnam Province. However, Cambodian locals, at least the citizens of Phnom Penh, knew that Chen Yazhi had come. Now that the war was in chaos, she left. This was a very heavy blow to the morale of the army and the people stationed in Phnom Penh. It also left a lot of hidden dangers for the Northeast Autonomous Region to rule Cambodia in the future.
Although Chen Yazhi can't fight, she still understands the principle of working together and working hard.
"But this Cambodian division has just been formed, and its current combat power is really not reassuring. Moreover, most of the insurance team members are from Cambodia's provinces, so it is very normal for the spies placed in the Dragon King in the middle to appear. Once there is a change, you will not be anxious to respond."
"Although my brother makes sense, Phnom Penh needs me. Since he followed my brother to the Northeast to avoid disaster, Wang Yi has been taking care of me and pampering me. I know he is good to me and I want to be nice to him. I can't help him on weekdays. Now I finally have this opportunity and I will not leave if I can help him with something." Chen Yazhi said that Wang Yi was very gentle, and there was a soft light on her face, which seemed to be really immersed in happiness. But on this war-torn night, such happiness seemed very disharmonious.
Chen Baiyu knew her sister's temper, so she didn't say anything more and sighed softly.
Chen Yazhi laughed, her eyes shining with Xiyi's light, her words showed full confidence, and she said proudly: "Brother, I believe in my man, he is a great hero who stands tall and strong. He will bring thousands of troops to save me, and he will not let me suffer any harm. Because he is Wang Yi, my man."
Chen Baiyu smiled and said angrily: "You are so pretty, you!"
Tonle Sap Lake is the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia. Also known as Phnom Peninsula, it is located in the southeast of the Indochina Peninsula and western Cambodia. It is connected to the Mekong River and is a natural reservoir for the Mekong River. Every year during the dry season, the lake water flows into the Mekong River through the Tonle Sap River, supplementing the insufficient water volume of the Mekong River. At this time, the lake surface is 150 kilometers long, 30 kilometers wide, and has an area of 2,700 to 3,000 square kilometers.
Whenever the rainy season comes and the Mekong River surges, the surging river water flows back into the lake through the Tonle Sa River, thus reducing the flooding in the lower reaches of the Mekong River. At this time, the surface of Tonle Sa Lake has expanded to more than 10,000 square kilometers, with a vast lake surface of about 100 kilometers wide, with an average water depth of more than 10 meters and a deepest depth of 11.5 meters. During the dry season, the water level of the Mekong River drops, and the lake water flows back into the Mekong River, with a water depth of only more than 1 meter.
In addition to the Mekong River, the supply of Tonle Sap Lake mainly relies on the surrounding rivers, including the Sen River, Schren River, Mongobore River, Battambang River, Boss River, etc.
The lakeside plain is flat and vast, 500 kilometers long and more than 110 kilometers wide. The land is fertile, the rivers are crisscrossed, and there are many swamps and dense forests. Together with the Mekong Delta, it forms the "Central Plain" of Cambodia. It is an important agricultural area and rice production area of Cambodia. It has abundant fish production and is also rich in rice production around it.
It was already night, and a small boat floated above it, and under the moonlight, it was comfortable and leisurely.
The boatman was holding the boat, and there were two people sitting opposite the cabin. One was in his thirties, wearing simple clothes, with flying manners and endless speech. The other was unclear and relatively quiet, with most of his figures hidden under the shadow of the turtle.
"After all, the insurance team is an insurance team. I didn't expect that the Cambodian division, which had just been established, would have such combat power. We fought for more than an hour and used two thousand people. In addition, the number of farmers in the uprising was less than ten thousand. I didn't expect that they still did not break through the fortifications they built temporarily. On the contrary, our people suffered heavy losses."
The person in the shadow didn't seem to care about the result of this attack, but said, "Yunzan, please take care of the matter here. By the way, have you found out the whereabouts of Norodom*an* Angkor?"
"This former king surrendered to the Northeast a year ago, and the entire royal family was deposed. However, the Northeast was still quite kind, leaving them with a relatively generous property. As for where the former king is now, according to my investigation, their family has been transferred to the Northeast to settle down. Although they will definitely be monitored by the Northeast Intelligence Agency in their operations, they are generally quite free. It is probably because the Northeast doesn't care much about him, and they feel that everything is settled, and a former king without power is just that, and they can't make much waves."
It can be heard that Hu Yunzan did not have much affection for the King of Angkor.
Norodun Angkor was the eldest son of King Anton. He ascended the throne since 1860 and was officially renamed Norodun. He was the ancestor of the Sihanouk family in later generations.
"Is there a way to get this former king back to Cambodia?"
"King, I really don't think it's necessary. When the French ruled Cambodia before, he was a puppet. Now he still has a lot of value to use, it's really doubtful."
"We need such a puppet. If we can help him restore his country, no matter what he thinks, the former nobles in Cambodia will have some good impression of us since then, and with their help, our actions will be much smoother."
Hu Yunzan pondered for a moment, touched his beard, and then nodded.
"This matter is not urgent, and it needs to be discussed for a long time."
Then he thought about it and said, "The possibility of us taking the King of Angkor in the short term is very small, but we can promise these nobles in Cambodia first, so that they do not need to take action, but they can also not participate in the Northeast's campaign to wipe out us."
