Chapter 1090 Two Nanyue Kings

I took off my armor and took a shower, and finally became much more refreshing. It was already mid-March, and the weather was getting warmer. I was wearing iron armor and I was still sweating profusely.

The post-war summary was sent up. After three days of battle, the Goguryeo defenders died in battle and more than 1,700 people were killed and more than 1,400 were injured. This was already a very heavy casualty, but there were still many prisoners, with nearly 10,000 people being captured.

There was not much spoil seized in the city, that is, some food, some livestock, and nothing else was left.

"How are we injured or killed?"

Li Wen came to report to his disciple Yuchi Baolin.

"We have no casualties. So far, 71 people have been killed in battle, more than 30 serious injuries and more than 100 minor injuries." Eight thousand people besieged Beisha City, broke through the city and annihilated nearly 100 enemies, but only more than 100 casualties were injured. This battle loss ratio is very impressive.

"The field hospital is already doing its best to treat the wounded."

Although this siege force came from Li's King of Yue Guard and the 6th team of the noble privateer fleet, Li still set up a field hospital with the army and brought a lot of military doctors and medicines.

Now there is a special medical school in Hanjing City, which invites imperial doctors and some famous folk doctors to give lectures and train doctors, including specialized military medical departments. The doctors in military medical departments are mainly doctors trained for the army, and they are mainly in the department of surgery. Especially battlefield first aid, which is much more professional than traditional doctors.

"Paulin, I'm leaving in two days. I plan to leave it to you to guard here."

Yuchi Baolin was a little surprised, "Leave it to me?"

"Well, Beisha City is very important. A place that military strategists must fight for. Only by defending Beisha City can we defend southern Liaoning. Moreover, controlling Beisha City can also threaten the southern end of the Thousand Mile Great Wall of the Goguryeo people. I have reported to Your Majesty that I plan to establish the Andong Protectorate in Beisha City, and you will serve as the Andong Protectorate. From now on, I will station Beisha and be responsible for the strategy of Liaodong."

Li's six earliest military disciples, the eldest disciple Su Dingfang, have now been named king and serve as the Great Protector of Zhenbei. Cheng Chumo is already the county duke and serves as the Protector of Zhennan. Cui Yan is also the county duke and serves as the Protector of Annan.

Now, Li specially handed over Beisha City to Yuchi Baolin, who served as the Protector of Anton.

Yuchi Baolin has been with him for several years and is very capable. Beisha City is the northern gateway to Li Liao's fiefdom, and it must be handed over to someone he can rest assured. He is also the eldest son of Yuchi Gong. If he is elected to this position, the emperor will definitely agree.

"The United Fleet and the 6th Team will be handed over to you. It won't take long before the court will send naval troops and officers and soldiers to garrison. I will also arrange people to come and manage Lushun and Dalian, and you will also need more care at that time."

Yuchi Baolin took on this arrangement, "Please rest assured by the teacher."

Li smiled and patted his shoulder. In recent years, this disciple has grown taller and wider, and gradually he looks more and more like Yuchi Gong.

"The court may not conquer Liao in five years. Before that, it was mainly harassing. As the Protector of Anton, you have a great responsibility. But this is also an excellent opportunity. If you can perform well in these five years and fight this harassing war, it will be a time to make achievements."

"How many people are the teacher going to lead south?" asked Yuchi Baolin.

"When I leave, I will take the Li family's ship away. The Li family's crew and the 6th team members will naturally take away, and the rest will be left."

The Li family has a lot of ships. Even if you put aside the Nanhai Trading Company and Baodao Trading Company that you have partnered with, Li also has a fleet that is completely affiliated with the Li family. This is a new fleet that started last year. It was originally designed to travel to Liaodong, where you trade while rob the Goguryeo people.

Up to now, this fleet has ten ships. Ten three-masted large ships are all equipped with naval guns, with more than 100 naval guns, and 6 teams of 800.

"We have four big boats in our family, so let's take them with you together." Yuchi Baolin said.

Li shook his head. It didn't take too many people to go to Nanyue. Ten warships were enough. It was enough to rent some cargo ships to transport his King of Yue Guards, and there was no need to use the Yuchi family's ships. Although his disciples all had several large ships and hundreds of people, Li Nanyue still didn't plan to be so arrogant.

"When the Vietnamese Hou went north, the fleet unloaded the cargo and took a batch of cargo south. At that time, my guard happened to take his ship."

After Yuchi Baolin stepped down, Li sat there in contemplation.

Beisha City has been taken down, and Yuchi Baolin is in charge. The Li family can start operating it with confidence in the future. The southern part of Liao is not small, and there are several archipelagos around it, so there is a lot of room for development here. Especially the two good ports of Lushun and Dalian, which are close to Dengzhou, the northern port, whether to Dengzhou, Youji, or western Liaoning.

Lushun and Dalian operate Chengshang Port, which is very promising.

And shipbuilding and fishing can also be exhibited here.

All you need now is to arrange for the manager to come and then recruit craftsmen and workers to come.

Li himself had ten boats, and Zhang Zhongjian had more than 30 boats, which was enough to transport his people away.

Their own fleet was about a thousand people, and the guards brought by Hanjing had more than 3,000, plus doctors, craftsmen and other military personnel, a total of nearly 5,000 people were present.

This is all he will go to Nanyue.

Li combined the troops into the Nanyue Guard Brigade, with three regiments and the brigade battalion. Each regiment had three battalions, one battalion, three companies, one company, and three rows. The three-three organization was adopted. This organization was not only suitable for the use of firearms, but also different from the regular army of the court.

With five thousand people, Li pinched his chin, this was not an optional force, it was a very strong force. The emperor originally gave Li three thousand people, but later Li asked more than 300 non-commissioned officers to act as the backbone of this army.

Li Shimin seemed to show his magnanimity to Li and allow Li to take his guards to attack Nanyue. Even in terms of military weapons, he tried his best to meet Li's requirements.

In the eyes of the emperor, it was only five thousand people, and more than three thousand were the army of the court. Li could not make a big splash. Since he was asked to fight Nanyue by himself, he, the emperor, had to show some support.

Li was thinking that there were ships, guns, cannons, swords, guns, bows and crossbows, and an army of five thousand people was enough for Li to create his own world on the Indochina Peninsula.

The Zhenla Kingdom was originally a vassal state of Funan Kingdom. Later, the Jimie tribe in the north began to rise and its power continued to expand. Princess Zhenla married the prince of Funan Kingdom as his wife. After King Zhenla passed away, Princess Zhenla's son-in-law succeeded to the throne as King Zhenla.

Soon, King Funan passed away. King Bafa Valman, the King of Zhenla, who was born in the Funan prince, wanted to serve as King Funan and clashed with the Prince of Fuguo. King Zhenla rose up and the two countries fought.

Zhenla itself has a large territory, but it is also full of tribes. Now it has started a war with its former sect leader Funan Kingdom, and the two sides are in a desperate situation.

In today's Indochina Peninsula, the northern part of Vietnam in later generations was Jiaozhou of the Tang Dynasty. In later generations, northern Laos was Zhen La. In later generations, southern Laos, southern Vietnam and Cambodia, it was Funan.

In later generations, the central part of Vietnam was Linyi Kingdom.

Zhenla, Linyi, and Funan are the three strongest countries in this region. There are many small countries and states in the middle, basically all of which are vassal states of the Three Kingdoms.

The Indochina Peninsula is now muddy, but for Lee, this is the right time.

Although the Tang Dynasty unified the world, it actually had little control over the south. Especially in the southern bank of the central Yangtze River, especially in the later areas of Guizhou, Hunan, there were still many barbarians and officials.

Although the imperial court has established prefectures and counties, its control is actually very weak, especially in the Wuling area, that is, at the junction with Hunan and Guangdong and Guangxi, the Wuling mountains are all barbarians.

Even in Guangdong and Guangxi, the imperial court actually had stronger control over some coastal areas, such as Guangzhou and other places. The rest of the places are also the territory of various ministries in South Vietnam.

For example, at this time, the most powerful person in Guangdong and Guangxi was Duke Feng Ang of Yue.

The Feng family was originally a descendant of Feng Hong, the monarch of Northern Yan during the 16 Kingdoms. Because Feng Hong could not bear to surrender to the Northern Wei, he fled to Goguryeo and sent his son Feng Ye to lead 300 people across the sea to return to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. After the demise of Northern Yan, Feng Ye stayed in Panyu (now Guangzhou, Guangdong). When Feng Ye's grandson Feng Rong was in charge of the Southern Dynasty, he served as the governor of Luozhou, Liang Dynasty. Feng Rong's son Feng Bao married Lady Xian, the daughter of the Xi family of Gaoliang, Lingnan, as his wife, and became the leader of the Yue tribe in Gaoliang.

The land of Lingnan has always been controlled by Baiyue. Since the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Han people have continued to expand south, but the land of Lingnan is remote, so Baiyue has always been powerful.

During the Southern and Sui Dynasty, Lady Xian married the Feng family. The marriage between Baiyue and Han tyrants made the Xian and Feng families the actual controllers of the Lingnan land.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Feng Ang controlled more than 20 prefectures in Lingnan. Although he did not follow the advice of his subordinates in the end, he was still under the leadership of the Baiyue and Han tyrants in Lingnan.

Although he is powerful but not king, his reputation and influence cannot be underestimated.

Among the Baiyue in Lingnan, the strongest one was Liliao. Liliao, the ancient Luoyue, and the later generations of Zhuang clan.

In the records of the Central Plains dynasty, Baiyue is also called Liliao, which is divided into Li, Liao, Man and other tribes. Li is mainly distributed in the southwest coastal areas south of Guangzhou, Guangdong and southeast of Guangxi and other places.

The Liao, also known as Liao, is distributed in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Sichuan, Yunnan nobles and other places.

Man is distributed in Hubei, Hunan, Guizhou, Sichuan and other places.

Although Baiyue has been in charge of the Central Plains dynasty since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Central Plains dynasty has always been a restraining system for Baiyue. It appoints the leaders of various tribes as governors and other officials, and has symbolic tribute, so its actual control is very weak.

From the Southern Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty, Liyao often rebeled and did not surrender.

In Guangdong and Guangxi, Feng Ang is now the most powerful, but if it is divided, it can be divided into Liyao represented by the Feng family of Gaozhou and Liyao represented by the Chen family of Longzhou.

The Feng family and the Xian family were married, and their branch also divided into Li Liao, while the Chen family branch was divided into Yao Liao.

Especially now that Lingnan is isolated from Guangdong and Guangxi, several important roads that later entered Guangdong and Fujian through Jiangxi have not been opened, so the inner six almost isolated the road to Lingnan. Only the coastal area in Lingnan is considered to be slightly stronger in the imperial court. The more inner six mountainous areas, the more controlled by Li Liao.

"So there is already a King of Nanyue." Li smiled and shook his head.

Feng Ang, although this person has never rebelled since he returned to the Tang Dynasty in history, in Lingnan, the Feng family and Chen family do have a taste of just folding their hands.

Duke Feng Ang of Yue, King Li of Yue, two tigers in one mountain.
