Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 1020

[Chapter 1020 Help!]

“Your Majesty is waiting for you to come back.” The attendant looked back with a nervous expression, “Hurry up, or it will be too late.” The

current situation in Siam is very complicated, and Emperor Sompa is very afraid of General Powe.

Thanks to the support of the Western natives in recent years, General Powe’s power in Siam has continued to expand, and he even faintly has the momentum to overwhelm Emperor Songpa.

If it continues to develop, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not overthrow Songpa and secretly control Siam.

This time, Emperor Songpa chose Dasong, which, as he himself said, was a gamble.

If he wins the bet, at least he can keep his position and authority. If he loses, it will only trigger Bowei’s rebellion in advance.

“We will be back.”

Shang Yi nodded, and led the soldiers of the Azure Dragon Army to turn and leave.

Not long after Shang Yi left, Zong La appeared.

Seeing that the envoy Da Song had disappeared, his face darkened.

Then he came to Mador who was full of doubts, “Colonel Mador, General Powe has made up his mind that Siam can no longer be ruled by the cowardly Sompa. He has decided to raise his troops to rebel.

” He said, cheering up, he said: “This is really a gratifying choice, and your choice can’t be wrong.” Just

now he wondered why the Dasong Mission left suddenly, now he understands.

The person who came just now must be someone from Songpa, and he revealed the news to the Dasong Mission.

Thinking of this, he felt a pity.

His face was still hurting, if they didn’t run away, he would have personally killed the envoy and the Dasong soldiers he led.

“Of course, both General Bowei and I firmly believe that your western lands will win in the end.” Zong La laughed.

After a pause, he showed a pleading expression, “But you also know that Dasong’s army is now on the east and west sides of Siam, and Dasong’s envoys have escaped, and the war between Siam and Dasong is inevitable, so I hope you can Fight side by side with our general Powe, and send the army to Siam.”

Although Powe’s power is huge, it doesn’t mean that Songpa has no power to fight back.

Therefore, Bowei not only wanted to follow the Xitu people to defeat the Dasong people, but also wanted to defeat Songpa and formally overthrow Songpa’s rule.

“This…” Mador immediately showed a embarrassed expression.

He naturally does not have this authority, and this matter needs to be reported to Admiral Wesley.

But he guessed that Admiral Wesley would most likely not agree to this matter.

Because it is nearly three thousand miles from Singapore in Malacca to the Imperial City of Siam.

To get to Siam across such a distance, to engage the Dasong army directly, unless they are crazy.

And by sea, their steamship can deliver the army to Siam in only three days.

However, since there are too few steamships in the United Fleet, the troops that can be projected will not be too many, which is equivalent to a drop in the bucket.

But he couldn’t say this to Zongla face to face, otherwise Bowei might think that he was abandoned by Xitu and stop supporting them.

Now, he must stabilize Bowei and let him work for the Western Turks.

As for whether to send troops, it needs to wait for him to go back.

So, he said: “Of course, we will definitely send troops to help you. Just act boldly and wait for the arrival of our army.”

Zong La listened with a smile on his face.

With Mador’s promise, he was relieved.

Now, he can go back and report to Bowei, and from now on he will formally raise his troops to rebel and control the Siamese imperial city.

When the two were talking, Shang Yi had left the city and was heading east.

At this moment, the Azure Dragon Army is stationed in Poipet City, Funan Kingdom, 200 kilometers away.

Due to the emergency, the group marched day and night, and returned to Poipet at noon on the third day.

At this time, Shang Yi and the soldiers were so tired that they almost dragged their feet.

Seeing Qin Shan, he immediately told about the situation in Siam.

“It’s not surprising, after all, the natives of the West have been running Siam for decades,” Qin Shan said.

Immediately, he looked in the direction of the Imperial City of Siam, “It’s not too late, Mu An, Guo Yong, you two will follow me and lead the troops to set off immediately, and go to the Imperial City of Siam to help Songpa destroy Bowei and other pro-Western forces. Shangyi, you can rest Take a rest and start again later.”

“It’s not necessary.” Shang Yi said, “The last general can just ride a horse. This time the southward battle has been fought by the First Army and the Second Army. This time it’s our turn The three armies are fighting.”

Qin Shan smiled, “Okay, then you will be the striker this time.”

Mu An and Guo Yong did not argue with Shang Yi, after all, what he said was the truth.

Hearing this, Shang Yi immediately felt the exhaustion in his body disappear, and immediately rushed out of the room, and went back to the camp to order troops.

Mu An and Guo Yong also went back separately.

At this time, Qin Shan asked Zhao Xu and Guan Tong to send the situation of the envoy respectively.

After an afternoon of preparation, the Azure Dragon Army crossed the border between Funan and Siam the next day and entered Siam.

In order to guard against them, Siam deployed 80,000 troops opposite Poipet.

Of the 80,000 Siamese soldiers, only more than 3,000 were equipped with rifled guns, half of the remaining soldiers were equipped with matchlock guns, and the rest still held swords.

Because Songpa is not very interested in going north to fight against Dasong.

The Western natives don’t give them a lot of guns and cannons like they did to Cochin and Pyuman.

Even the only rifled gun was specially given to Povey’s direct army by Wesley.

In addition to the 3,000 rifled soldiers on the border, there are also 3,000 rifled soldiers deployed in Prachinburi controlled by Powai.

After the encounter between the two armies, Shang Yi was preparing to attack.

At this time, they suddenly heard gunfire from the direction of the Siamese army, as if they had started fighting themselves.

Shang Yi suddenly realized that there must be a conflict between the army controlled by Sompa and the army controlled by Bowei.

So, he immediately asked the scouts to investigate.

Get in touch with the army controlled by Sompa.

About half an hour later, the scouts returned and brought news, “General, the 20,000 soldiers under Bowei’s control will retreat steadily against the 60,000 soldiers of Songpa, and they will soon be unable to hold on. The guns and artillery of the army under him are much better than those under Songpa.” After

a pause, he continued: “Now, Bowei’s army is in the southwest, and Songpa’s army is in the northwest.”

Shang Yi nodded and immediately called Said: “The third army, attack to the southwest, and annihilate these grandchildren from the flank.” After

his order, the general of the third army led the soldiers into the battlefield.

The stragglers with Qin-style rifles in front opened the way, and the machine gun team followed behind.

After traveling for about ten miles, they arrived at the battlefield.

At this moment, the soldiers with rifled guns in Pove’s army were forming a horizontal formation to shoot at the opposite Sompa army with flintlock guns who were also in formation.

Under the rifled guns of Powe’s army, Sompa’s army was vulnerable, and a large number of soldiers continued to die.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Qinglong Army immediately aimed at Bowei’s rifle soldiers, and the machine gun team was also ready and aimed their guns.

Everything was in place, and with an order, Qin-style rifles and machine guns spit out flames at the same time.

The dense rain of bullets instantly covered the riflemen of Povey’s army.

Before the riflemen could react, they fell one by one.

In less than a quarter of an hour, more than half of the more than 3,000 riflemen were killed or injured.

While the machine gunners and some soldiers were targeting the Riflemen, other Qinglong Army soldiers were also shooting and killing the Fusiliers of the Bowei Army.

During the same period of time, the fusiliers also suffered heavy casualties.

Faced with the sudden attack of the Qinglong army and the heavy casualties, Bowei’s army collapsed, and the remaining soldiers immediately dispersed.

At this time, Shangyi’s army joined Songpa’s army.

Sure enough, the general who led the army told Shang Yi that it was precisely because they were ordered by Bowei and Songpa that they would fight each other.

After confirming this matter, Shang Yi immediately marched towards the Siam Imperial City together with the generals of Songpa.

Apparently, Povey and Sompa have officially broken up.

They need to help Sompa over Powi in the civil war.

In this way, they can successfully control Siam and pull out the last nail of the western natives in the southeast.
