On the city wall of the southeast defense line, Taichang turned his telescope and glanced at the military camp of the Mughal Empire, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, A San was not scared away.

Six days have passed, and the few generals who escaped back during the sneak attack must have returned to the camp.

There was no sign of panic in A San's camp, and they were still making siege equipment in an orderly manner.

This proves that Ah San is not convinced and wants to fight.

He really didn't want to scare Ah San away.

Because they were attacking them at this moment, and the southeast defense line was built by Lu Xiangsheng, as if it were natural chasm.

It can be said that Ah San died as much as he came.

Moreover, they will not suffer much casualties when they occupy the geographical advantage.

If Ah San runs away, the situation will be different.

By then, they will hide in the city and they will attack.

It would be fine if there were no muskets and artillery. The problem was that the anti-Habsburg alliance was still providing muskets and artillery to Asan.

In this case, if they attack other people's cities, they will definitely suffer a great loss.

This is a world of difference between offense and defense.

It's like there are also 100,000 people.

If Ah San is used to attack the Southeast defense line, it is basically a delivery of food. The soldiers of the Shenji Camp can completely kill these 100,000 troops without any injuries.

If A San's 100,000 troops defended the city and they attacked, the ending would be completely different.

If someone is equipped with thousands of cannons and tens of thousands of muskets to defend the city, at least half of the soldiers of the Shenji Camp will be killed and injured when they run to attack!

Therefore, he didn't want to scare Ah San away. He wanted to consume Ah San's war potential here and then eliminate all the troops that Ah San invaded in one fell swoop.

In this way, it would be much easier for them to attack A San's territory.

Even if there are muskets and artillery provided by the Anti-Habsburg Alliance, no one will come to defend the city. It is not too easy for them to take down their city.

Of course, if you want to exhaust A San's war potential, you have to keep increasing troops.

If others no longer increase their troops, they will only spend more than 600,000 remaining troops with them, and it will make no sense to spend them.

Thinking of this, Taichang couldn't help but look up and asked, "Jiandou, do you think Ah San will increase his troops? If they don't increase their troops, what can you do to stimulate them and let them continue to increase their troops?"

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he said without hesitation: "Your Majesty, I think Ah San will increase his troops.

Because since yesterday, they have been cutting down trees on the edge of the jungle in the north.

They even ventured into our artillery bombardment range and cut down all the trees in front of the city wall.

And giant siege equipment has also begun to be built there.

The ministers thought that they wanted to expand the front line and launch an attack at the same time within a range of dozens of miles wide.

If they really want to do this, six hundred thousand people will definitely not be enough."

There is such a thing, that's great!

Taichang thought for a while, then solemnly said: "We can't just go to the next wave. We have to find a way to lure A San, let them continue to increase their troops, and strive to use the advantage of the geographical advantage here to exhaust their war potential in one fell swoop.

How do you think we should fight in the next wave so that they will not let them despair so much that they withdraw their troops, but continue to increase their troops?"

This is a bit difficult.

Lu Xiangsheng thought about it carefully before saying carefully: "Weichen thinks that these three should have some brain problems.

As long as we don't destroy more than half of it at once, they should continue to increase their troops.

Of course, there is another premise.

The premise is to let them see hope of conquering the city wall.

Weichen felt that in the next wave we could pretend that there was not enough troops and ammunition, so we could release the water a little, let them attack the city wall, and then repel them.

In this way, they probably feel that they can almost conquer the city wall.

The ministers thought that as long as they could see hope of conquering the city wall, they would definitely continue to increase their troops."

This is not the problem you think, A San's brain is just sick!

When Taichang heard this, he couldn't help but nodded slightly and said, "Well, just do it like this. We can also prepare to light fireworks and other things, so that they feel that our ammunition is lit by them.

This way, they will definitely be even more excited.

However, if someone is put on the city wall, the soldiers guarding the city may suffer casualties.

We should create a batch of full-body armor, and then wear it with a group of soldiers with better skills, put it on the specific sections, and try to avoid casualties."

This is not difficult either.

The potential for war under the full mobilization of the Ming Dynasty was quite terrifying.

At this moment, the new Wuwei City has been sent to the city of New Wuwei, and the canal south of Siam has been dug. Just send a telegram to Wubei City, and the armor on the whole body can be prepared and sent over soon.

They were discussing on the city wall how to lure Ah San to continue to increase their troops. An Jinyiwei suddenly walked up quickly and bowed and said, "Report, Your Majesty, the King of Siam, please see him."

At this time, the King of Siam came over to join in the fun?

Taichang thought about it, but said goodbye to Lu Xiangsheng and rushed to Xinwuwei City Wharf.

After all, Siam was one of the most loyal vassal states of the Ming Dynasty. Since the Hongwu Dynasty, they have always regarded respecting the Ming Dynasty as their sect leader and have never betrayed them.

Although they had not come to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute for a while, that was the Ming Dynasty, not theirs.

The royal family of Siam has always regarded themselves as ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and has always been learning the Ming Dynasty culture, and has never let go.

For such a loyal vassal state, we naturally cannot ignore it, which will make people feel cold.

Taichang returned to Xinwuwei City, got on the Emperor's account, washed up well, put on a formal dragon robe, and ordered people to arrange the top floor of the Emperor's account, and then ordered people to call the Siam King over.

Soon, the King of Siam walked into the study of the front hall and slapped on the ground and said respectfully: "I pay homage to the emperor."

Taichang nodded slightly, then said majesticly: "Don't give me a gift, give me a seat."

Cao Huachun, who was standing beside him, immediately moved the chairs he had prepared to the next to the desk.

The Siam king said, "Thank you for your grace," and then got up and sat carefully on the chair.

Taichang didn't say anything, and asked directly: "You have come to see you thousands of miles away, but what's the point?"

The King of Siam quickly explained: "I heard that the canal in the south has been built. I don't have to go too far to come here to pay my respects to the emperor, so I asked the Ming Dynasty's Atlantic Business News for help and took a boat to come here.

The empress came to visit the emperor this time mainly to ask the emperor, and she needed the help of Siam.

The emperor's war mobilization order has been received, and the emperor has also summoned 300,000 troops to practice day and night.

I heard that the emperor was fighting against the Mughal Empire here, so I came to ask specifically.

If the emperor needs Siam to send troops to help, the empress immediately leads an army of 300,000 to serve."

Well, this Siam King is not bad, he is grateful.

However, help is spared, and the Ming Dynasty's war potential is no joke.

At this moment, the 200,000 troops in Xidaying have been almost done, and the 500,000 troops in the Southeast Camp have gathered in Xinwuwei City, and the weapons and equipment are almost complete.

The Ming Dynasty, the 200,000 Tunwei and the 500,000 troops from the Nanyang Camp, which were announced by the Dongyang Chenggong Department, have also been gathered and are rushing here.

Soon, more than 1.7 million people will gather here.

With so many people, there is no problem in fighting the Mughal Empire.

The 300,000 people in Siam really can’t help.

When Taichang heard this, he nodded with relief and said, "Just just have this kind of heart. The Ming Dynasty has not yet reached the point where it needs troops to send troops to help from the vassal states.

You just need to train your subordinates and guard your territory.

When the King of Siam heard this, he couldn't help but say with regret: "Your Majesty, do you really need Xiao Wang's help?"

The last time the emperor sent troops to rescue Siam in danger, Xiao Wang was always grateful and wanted to repay this great kindness.

This time the emperor was fighting near Siam, and Xiao Wang really wanted to do something for the emperor."

Well, this seems a bit heart-warming and hard to refuse.

Taichang thought about it carefully, then asked: "You have excess food, fruits, vegetables, meat, etc.

After all, there are too many people gathered here and the consumption is quite large. If you can replenish some supplies nearby, you can save the trouble of back and forth."

Of course there is this.

The King of Siam thought for a while and then bowed: "It all depends on the emperor's kindness. Siam has had good weather and prosperity in recent years, and the country and the people are at peace. The food, fruits, vegetables and meat are all surplus.

In order to thank the emperor for his kindness, I specially paid tribute to one million stones of grain, one million kilograms of fruits and vegetables, one thousand cattle, and one thousand pigs.

Emperor, I don’t know if this is enough.

If it is not enough, I will find another way."

I didn't say I asked you to pay tribute.
