Chapter 1332 Wind and Rain in the South Seas - Wigrama Vardana's Thoughts
At this time, tens of thousands of troops were confronting each other near Surabaya on the island of Java. After the civil war broke out at the beginning of this year, although Veerabhmi managed his territory into an independent kingdom, Wigrama Wardana controlled the Majesty
The Boyi Kingdom also lost a large area of territory due to the previous war with the Ming Dynasty. Later, it lost a lot of money because someone participated in the murder of Yunxi with the victory-weary technique. But after all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The Central Court of Majapahit
His strength is still beyond the reach of Veerabumi.
Veerabhmi himself knew it, so in order to defeat Vigrama Vardana, he led his troops straight to the capital city of Bitter Orange after the war, hoping to capture the thief first and capture the king first. He succeeded in the first battle. But Vigrama Vardana
Naya was on guard for a long time, and even though there was minister Naitong Veerabhmi, he was still discovered quickly.
After learning the news, Vigrama Vardana immediately led his troops to fight, and the two sides met near Surabaya and started fighting.
However, the battle was not fierce. Veerabhmi failed in the sneak attack and knew that his troops were smaller than Vigrama Vardhana, so he used his troops very cautiously. Although Vigrama Vardhana had strong soldiers and horses, he did not dare to defeat him easily.
The loss of troops is equivalent to a stalemate. However, although the fighting is not fierce, there are still a dozen fights every day, and hundreds of people are killed before the troops can be withdrawn and returned to the camp.
But for some reason on this day, Veerabhmi sent his soldiers who were specifically scolding and started provoking in front of Vigrama Vardhana's military camp early in the morning. Originally there was some movement in the camp, but for some reason the movement stopped.
It stopped, and no one came out to fight for a long time. Willa Bumi wondered secretly: 'What happened that made him rather endure the scolding than send troops to fight?';
"The Soviet Union that was entrusted by the Ming Dynasty attacked our country?" Just when Veerabhmi felt strange, Vigrama Vardana was sitting in his tent and asked angrily.
"Your Majesty, the Soviet Union did indeed send troops to attack our country. They landed in Bogor ten days ago. After landing, they quickly moved south to capture Sukabumi, and then moved eastward. Now they have probably captured Bandung."
"Another group of soldiers, in addition to flying the flag of the Su State, also included the Luo State, the Pu State, the Song State, and another country that had never seen the flag, and I didn't know which country it was. They landed in Cirebon and walked straight along the seaside.
Take it." A messenger kneeled on the ground and said, and introduced what the flag he had never seen before looked like.
After hearing the appearance of the last flag, Vigrama Vardhana, who was originally very angry, suddenly became very uneasy and even seemed a little scared. He asked in a trembling voice: "Can you see the sun and moon flag of the Ming Dynasty?"
"I haven't seen it," the messenger replied.
Vigrama Vardana asked repeatedly, but the messenger only said that he had not seen it; he asked again: "Did they post the notice? What was the reason for these five countries to send troops to invade our country?"
"Your Majesty, they posted a notice. It was issued in the name of the State of Su, and they sent troops on the grounds of supporting orthodoxy and punishing the people. The notice said that even according to the custom of our country, the throne of the king is inherited by the children of the head wife, but if the head wife
He has no children, no descendants, and the other princesses and princes of the former king will inherit the throne of the king. But Your Majesty..." The messenger hesitated before finishing, Vigrama Vardhana
He interrupted him with words. He asked a few more questions and asked the messenger to retreat.
As soon as the messengers retreated, Vigrama Vardana began to tremble all over. He was not afraid of Zhu Gaoxu, and he was not even afraid of Zhu Gaoxu joining forces with Pu, Luo, Song and Yue to attack him. These five countries
The combined national strength of the country is not much stronger than his.
But he was worried that this was a prelude to the Ming Dynasty sending troops. In his opinion, Zhu Gaoxu's identity was not the most noble among the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty in Nanyang, and his seniority was not the greatest. Sending troops to attack Majapahit would have no impact on the other vassal states.
The benefits are not great. It is impossible for you to gather four other countries to attack him on your own.
So it must be the idea of the Ming Dynasty. "The emperor of the Ming Dynasty named Zhu Yunxi still held a grudge against our country's people who used the victory-weary technique to harm him four years ago, so he wanted to attack Majapahit, and he wanted to let all the Nanyang people know it first.
The vassal king attracted my army, and then the army from the mainland landed behind me, annihilated all my troops, and destroyed our country. Willabumi's strength is far inferior to mine, and as long as I am destroyed, he will not survive."
Vigrama Vardana muttered to himself again and deduced the completed "battle plan" of the Ming Dynasty.
But after thinking about this, he was no longer so afraid. Since the situation had gotten so bad, it was useless to worry about it. Instead, he calmed down and thought about how to deal with it.
He thought seriously for a while and then loudly ordered the guards on duty outside the tent: "Let Ketanagala, Ketalayasa, and Jia Liang come to see me."
After a while, three khans in armor came in. When they saw Vigrama Vardana, they bent down and saluted and shouted: "I have met your Majesty."
Vigrama Vardana waved his hand to indicate that they don't need to be polite. These three people seemed to be close followers of Vigrama Vardana. They usually got along with each other more casually and were not respectful to him. One of them straightened up.
After arriving, he immediately asked: "Your Majesty, the people in Wilabumi are shouting and fighting outside. Why don't we send someone to fight?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, Willabumi is a rebel. How can we tolerate them shouting and scolding outside without responding?" Another person also said.
"Ketanagala, Ketalayasa, don't worry about Veerabhmi now, there are enemies far more difficult to deal with than him who are coming to attack us." Vigrama Vardana then said to the messenger and
own speculation.
"Your Majesty, how to deal with this?" Upon hearing this, Ketanagala became frightened: "The strength of the Ming Dynasty is much stronger than that of Majapahit, and it is far beyond what we can deal with. Now he is coming to attack our country.
Now, Your Majesty, it is better to send someone to seek peace."
"What are you talking about! Although the Ming Dynasty is strong, how can it ask for peace without fighting? How can the general who leads the army be so spineless!" Ketalayasa said loudly.
Ketanagala was not afraid of him and retorted loudly: "I'm telling the truth! Didn't I see how powerful the Ming Dynasty was as early as seven years ago? It is said that the soldiers sent by the Ming Dynasty that time were not the most elite.
We easily defeated the people we sent to Srivijaya. If we really send elites to attack our country this time, how can we defeat it? It is better to send people to sue for peace immediately! Although the conditions for peace will not be loose now, they must be
It will be more lenient than after defeat. If you wait until defeat before seeking peace, the conditions will be even more stringent."
"Then what if the purpose of the Ming Dynasty's attack is to destroy our country!" Ketalayasa stood up and shouted: "If the Ming Dynasty does not accept the peace proposal, the purpose is to destroy our country, you still insist on recruiting peace?"
Ketanagala could not accept these words, and turned to Vigrama Vardana and said: "Your Majesty, what is the purpose of Ming Dynasty's attack on our country this time? If it is just to teach our country a lesson, then I still think it should be
Sue for peace immediately; if our country is to be destroyed, I am willing to be a vanguard and lead troops to fight the Ming army, and I vow not to let the Ming country succeed."
"I don't know about that either." Vigrama Vardana smiled bitterly: "Now it's just Su and five other vassal states entrusted by the Ming Kingdom sending troops. The local soldiers of the Ming Kingdom have not yet appeared. I don't know what the purpose is.
have no idea."
"But in my opinion, the Ming Dynasty was mostly using two-pronged plans. If our country is easily defeated, even if our country does not have the intention of destroying it at the beginning, it will make further progress; if our country can defeat the army sent by the Ming Dynasty, even if they have no intention of destroying our country at the beginning,
They would also stop thinking about destroying our country. Isn't that what the Mongols were like back then? They initially had the intention of occupying Java Island, but later because the losses were too great and uneconomical, they withdrew their troops and accepted our country as a vassal state."
"This is the plan I have now. So," Vigrama Vardhana suddenly shouted loudly: "Ketanagala, Ketalayasa, **Jia Liang, obey the order!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." After hearing Vigrama Vardana's loud command, the three of them immediately stood up straight and agreed solemnly.
"**Jia Liang, we must first make a truce with Wilabhmi. Send someone to the other side to tell Wilabhmi about this, and tell him that if I am destroyed by the Ming Dynasty, he should not say that he will become Majapahit.
The king can't even defend his own territory!"
"Tell him again that I don't want him to send troops to fight the Ming army with me. As long as he agrees to withdraw his troops and not attack Kuju City. As long as he agrees to these two conditions, I will recognize him as the king of an independent country.
, no longer thinking about taking his land under central management."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Jia Liang agreed.
"Ketanagala, you lead 10,000 troops to stay near Bitter Orange City. The Ming army has not yet appeared, and they might have the same plan as Veerabhmi and sneak attack while Bitter Orange City is empty and unprepared. So we must stay.
The troops are stationed. Ketanagala, you are very good at defense, so you will be responsible for it."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Ketanagala agreed.
"Ketalayasa, as a vanguard, after Veerabumi retreats, go east to fight with the armies of Su and other countries. If the enemy has few soldiers, you will eat them. If the enemy has many soldiers,
Just stop them and prevent them from taking another step forward."
"Your Majesty, I will never let the enemy army take a step forward." Ketalayasa promised loudly.
"Okay." Vigrama Vardana said, then glanced at the three people in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "The Ming Dynasty sent troops to attack our country. If Majapahit is destroyed, his brother will be crowned king.
Han people will also migrate here, and the status of all Javanese people will be lower than that of Han people in the future. In order that future generations will not be lower than Han people in the future, we must also work together to deal with the Ming Dynasty!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely do this." The three of them agreed in unison. (To be continued)
