Jia Dinhan and his party led the team to Saigon under the starry night in the name of Princess Jade of Le Dynasty for sightseeing. By the time they arrived in Saigon, it was already late at night on the third day.
If it goes well, the Fuguihou's fleet still has one day's journey.
Although Saigon at this time looked shabby, it looked like a disgusting patch of psoriasis on the Green Coast.
But it was the most prosperous city in Annan at that time.
Although there is a North-South confrontation between the Le Dynasty and the Nguyen clan in Annam, the powerful ministers of the Zheng Song family are in charge of North Le.
There is a saying that "the Li family is the emperor and the Zheng family is in power".
Although the Ruan family group has no powerful ministers in power, there are "five sons competing for heir apparent".
Nguyen Thien Hung, the fourth son of King Nguyen, was controlling Saigon, connecting India to the west and the Li Dynasty to the north, and wanted to have good relations with the Qing Dynasty.
Ruan Tianxiong was particularly excited after receiving the "letter of credence" from Princess Jade of the Li Dynasty.
I heard that Princess Jade is beautiful and fragrant, and now I can finally see her beauty.
If the opportunity is good, we can capture her and get foreign aid from the Li Dynasty. If we can get more and bigger chips in the future battle between King Nguyen and King Nguyen.
But the problem now is that, according to a detailed report, Fuguihou and the Qing's pacifier disappeared mysteriously after entering the Annan territory.
At the same time, two apprentices of the Marquis of Phu Gui led an "invincible fleet" of fifty warships to arrive in Saigon.
The Japanese were sealed off from the east, allowing the Dutch fleet to take a detour, and they never followed the rules in battle. The "invincible fleet" has long been famous in this area of water.
Ruan Tianxiong once went to great lengths to build a "transfer station" on Snake Island in the east, hoping to take this opportunity to develop his own navy.
But after he finished cleaning up all kinds of venomous snakes on Snake Island and had just transported the supplies up, the "Invincible Fleet" came to him and covered him with artillery fire. Not only was the supplies gone, but also the little "Navy" he had worked so hard to save.
"Talent" is also dead.
Ruan Tianxiong made representations and protests to the Qing Dynasty in the name of Ruan Guo, expressing that he "very much disliked" the Invincible Fleet.
I sent ten letters in a row, but nothing happened.
What's even more annoying is that the "Invincible Fleet" actually sent him a letter with a very arrogant tone, "We are never liked by people, but feared by people."
At this time, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) was teaching two apprentices.
After setting off from Guangzhou, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) took off the disguise of pretending to be senior brother Chen Jinnan and stayed in the cabin of the "Princess" to give lectures.
The world we live in is round, starting from the east and going west, and finally returning to the starting point; the ocean accounts for more than 70% of the area; steel can float on the water; whoever controls the ocean controls the entire world...
This knowledge completely destroyed the previous understandings of Nian Tuyao and Xue Pan.
Seeing the confusion on the faces of the two apprentices, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) wailed in his heart. "This is the limitation of the times. I must set up a new school... I must set up a new school to teach modern knowledge. Poverty does not limit imagination."
, but backward knowledge.”
I received a telegram the day before yesterday, "The Marquis and the Envoy have been kidnapped by Princess Jade."
This was sent back by the sniper team that followed the pacification convoy into Annan. They brought two transmitters with the army.
They obeyed Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi)'s orders and only followed and observed without doing anything else.
Now the "Master Hou" is the elder brother Chen Jinnan pretending to be.
What Jia Dinghan, known as the "King of Hell", never expected was that his every move was already under the control of Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi).
However, Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) suddenly lost contact with the sniper team in the past two days.
The eighteen brothers in the team are all the "Kings of the Jungle" led by Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi)...
"We have to prepare for the worst, this is a tough battle!"
War has always been cruel. Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) is a person who has been through this and has never had any illusions about "lucky".
Besides, people shouldn’t live by “lucky luck”.
"Jai Din Khan, a very underappreciated prince in the Mughal Dynasty, bought land in Siam and Annam. He even owned 20% of the land on Pyrotechnic Island... He is the largest landowner in Southeast Asia.
.As the largest gang boss in this area, he founded the gang Huitian Renzong fifteen years ago. He kills people and sells goods, and specializes in robbing the rich. However, he likes to help the poor. He has a very high status in the eyes of the people... Everything he does is profitable.
The property obtained from the business was not squandered, but used to purchase land... This guy actually had three million households of farm laborers and tenants. Such power was simply overwhelming. Twenty years ago, he was just a mere farmer.
The bastard prince who knows how to bully female slaves... There must be an expert here to give guidance... Who could it be? Who could have such a big pattern?"
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) originally thought that when he came to Southeast Asia, he would be able to handle things with ease because he had hundreds of years more knowledge than people of this era...
Unexpectedly, such a character pops up!
The brothers from the second and third sniper squads have already gone ashore to make arrangements at the ports along the way.
News came from the country that the armies of Pingxi King Wu Sangui and Pingnan King Shang Kexi had assembled towards Guangxi.
The Japanese rogues and samurai who had been wandering around Southeast Asia for a long time were also gathering in the direction of Annan.
The Mughal lords' separatist forces in the east are also moving eastward...
"This time, Annan is really lively... There seems to be a pair of invisible big hands controlling it... Who is this big hand?"
Saigon is in sight.
Nian Tuyao and Xue Pan walked into the cabin.
Xue Pan said: "The Lord of Saigon, Ruan Tianxiong, was defeated by us. The battle at Snake Island ended his fleet dream. I'm afraid we have to go ashore and we can't do anything good."
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) smiled and said: "If you can't be kind anymore, then shoot it a few times."
Nian Tuyao and Xue Pan were both silent.
The fleet came to Saigon for supplies, and they also wanted to bring back Chen Jinnan and the pacifier Yao Qisheng who were kidnapped by Princess Jade safely...
How many shots... what's going on?
Wouldn't this fight be worse?
But the two apprentices have always listened to their master's words and resolutely implemented their master's orders.
"Master, how many rounds should I fire?"
Nian Tuyao asked cautiously.
"Half of the artillery shells. In the morning, ten artillery shells will be fired every quarter of an hour. Once noon is over, the center of Saigon will be fully covered. The harder the fire, the better!"
At this time, the two apprentices were a little dumbfounded.
Half of the shells are enough to destroy the entire Saigon!
Master, what happened today?
When the fleet approached the water surface of Saigon Port, a small sampan sent by Ruan Tianxiong was already there to meet it.
No trumpets are blown, no flags are raised.
Three shells directly blew ten small sampans into pieces.
Before the Saigon people could react, ten shells roared away.
Ship cannons like this modified by Baoyu (burning small stones) fired hard and accurately, and the explosive power of the shells was very powerful, comparable to the battleship cannons of later generations. Such a shell shook the entire Saigon.
Ten such artillery shells were fired every quarter of an hour. Seeing the people in Saigon fleeing in all directions, Nian Tuyao and Xue Pan realized that their master was kind-hearted and his purpose was to evacuate the people with sporadic artillery shells.
At this time, in the small palace at the east end of Saigon, Ruan Tianxiong was "receiving" Princess Jade.
The scene was very chaotic, with the bodies of Saigon Self-Defense Force guards everywhere.
A long black knife was placed across Ruan Tianxiong's neck. The owner of the long knife was Jia Dinghan, known as the "King of Hell".
Ruan Tianxiong's face was already ashen.
Jia Dinhan said with an evil sneer: "If you are defeated by me, the King of Hell, you will be considered lucky in this life."
"You take advantage of women...you are so shameless!"
"Women are human beings too. Tell me, why can't we use them?"
Jia Dinghan held the sword in one hand and took the Emerald Princess beside him into his arms, kissed her on the face, and said with a smile: "This is the Emerald Princess you wanted to marry, but she is mine now."
Slave girl, she not only bathes and dresses me, but also does everything according to my instructions..."
"If you have the ability, don't engage in such sneak attacks. Let us fight like men with real guns and swords!"
Jia Dinghan let go of Princess Jade and leaned down to Ruan Tianxiong and said, "You are under my prince's sword now, and you have no chance to negotiate terms with me!"
Jia Dinghan slashed Ruan Tianxiong's shoulder with a knife, and the blade sank more than half of the way, with blood showing out.
"Okay, Your Highness, if you need anything, just ask..."
At this time, the sound of artillery was getting closer and closer, and one of Jia Din Khan's personal guards ran in to report in a panic.
"Sect Master, the enemy is firing cannons and is almost here."
Jia Dinghan waited for him to finish with a smile, then raised the knife and chopped off the head of the guard with one stroke.
He held his head up and said slowly with a smile: "Why are you panicking?"
Everyone was shocked!
Jia Din Khan put his head gently on the ground and ordered: "Spread it now."
It was exactly noon when they left the Little Prince's Mansion. Thousands of cannons were fired in the bay, and there were dense explosions everywhere... The Little Prince's Mansion was blown to pieces in an instant.
Standing on the top of a hill, Jaddin Khan's eyes were even hotter than before.
"I didn't expect that this rich prince actually has such a huge cannon. I must get it... first use the sparse sound of the cannon to drive everyone away... Hahaha... This rich prince is a bit interesting. He is showing off his force.
What?"
The sound of artillery continued until the end of the hour. Almost the entire Saigon, except for the buildings near the port, was razed to the ground.
At this time, Nian Tuyao was kicking the chief gunner of the "Princess" in the butt.
Because he "accidentally" put up the Qing's battle flag.
Just put it upright, and you even made it into a Chinese character "year" measuring one foot square.
"We are pirates now, the most famous Qinglong pirate in this sea area, please remember it!"
When the pirates' black skull and crossbones flag stood up, Jaddin Khan, who was standing on the top of a hill and watching the situation in the Gulf with a pair of binoculars, smiled again.
"Hahaha... It seems that this wealthy prince is a difficult character to fight against. Let's also raise the royal flag of King Ruan..."
