The War Court and Lap Pillow, Austria's Mandate of Heaven Chapter 89

The book follows the previous article.

After witnessing the powerful combat power of the Skitarii, Guan Jinpan and others decided to join the church.

With the end of the battle, many family members of the rebel army found Kampson, and the total number of Chenla rebels was nearly 8,000.

Food for these 8,000 people is a problem, plus the shelter they need.

There was a heated discussion in the city of Kampong Son, although various factions were at loggerheads over how to deal with the Chenla rebels.

Some people think that the Chenla Rebels should be placed in the Xiangshan Mountains and let them consume the strength of the Vietnamese. Some people think that they are too embarrassing to use. It is better to designate a special area for them to contribute to the construction of the territory.

But there is one thing that can reach a consensus, that is, Guan Jinpan's team cannot be allowed to enter the city.

In Southeast Asia, there has been a saying since ancient times, princes and generals, would you rather have a kind?

Now that the royal family of Chenla is declining and the country is fragmented, I am afraid that there are not many people who have other ideas. This kind of use is of great benefit to the construction of Pound Xun, but if it is not used well, it may suffer a lot.

The main problem now is that there were 8,000 people in the original Chenla army, and almost everyone has a gun, and most of them are strong laborers.

In addition to the 800 cataracts, Pound Xun's combat strength is the church's combat brothers, but the two combined are only more than a thousand people.

If it's a frontal battle or a defensive battle, it's okay, but if the other side engages in a sneak attack, it will be very troublesome. Once these people are allowed to enter the city, the situation will be out of control at all.

The only way the Austrians in Chenla can think of is to write letters to ask for help from their own country, and at the same time recruit the parishioners for simple training, and in the event of an emergency, they will be given weapons to help them defend the city and fight.

However, doing so can only ensure the safety of the city of Kampong Son, not the safety of the entire area, and it also restricts one's own activities.

In fact, Franz had thought of this possibility a long time ago, and the solution he gave was to divide and disintegrate.

First of all, Chenla officials who have long-term trade relations with Austria can join the church and enter the city.

Secondly, if they can provide treasure, information, or special personnel who can speak German, they can also enter the city as a teacher.

Thirdly, those who want to enter the city can be trained first and then selected. Among them, the outstanding and devout ones will be retained to participate in actual combat. Those who have performed outstandingly in three consecutive battles can be admitted to the city.

At the same time, one point must be implemented well. The two basic points of the church and German, the new Christians must be able to speak German, the class must be weakened in the city, especially among the Chenla people, and the class must be strengthened outside the city, so as to facilitate the rule.

The news of Ren Yu and Luo Jian's defeat quickly spread to the back, and the Vietnamese general who led the troops felt unbelievable.

Fan Zhu and Zhang Mingdao were both second-rank generals, but they were bullied by Zhang Mingdao everywhere. If Zhang Mingdao used the news of the defeat, he might lose his position as a general.

As for what the Zhenla puppet army said, Fan Zhu didn't believe it at all. He didn't believe that there was any army in this world that could hurt people with black smoke. On the contrary, he felt that these Khmer spies might have pretended to seek refuge in the Great Viet Kingdom, and what they were using at this moment was nothing more than bitter tricks.

Their purpose is just to delay his progress. At the same time, Fan Zhu also understands that failure is not allowed in the army of Dayue Kingdom, and the only end for the losers is death. Therefore, what Fan Zhu has to do now is to kill all these Khmer people. Then he personally took down Pound Xun and gave an explanation to the Lord of Yue.

Guan Jinpan and the others were amazed by the changes in Pound Xun. They did not expect that the former fishing village had turned into a city at this time.

The style of the city wall of Gundam is not inferior to any big city in Chenla, coupled with a large number of Western-style buildings, it makes people feel unreal.

Guan Jinpan also noticed a feature, the religious people here are actually dressed in foreign cloth, which is more beautiful and strong than homemade cloth, and only a few people in Chenla can afford to wear it.

At this time, there was less trade between Chenla, Vietnam and the West, so this happened.

The former officials Jinpan and Parasu forged the edict of the former king Anzan and assigned Pangson and its surrounding counties to Austria.

Now Guan Jinpan is holding a rebellion document and a document granting the provinces of Kampot and Koh Kong near Kampong Xun to the Austrian Empire.

Guan Jinpan had seen how powerful Pound Xun was at this time in the previous battles, and now he just wanted to find a good backer for his tribe, and exchange the two documents in his hand for one to spend the rest of his life in peace.

Franz was very satisfied with the fact that Guan Jinpan forged the imperial edict of the first emperor of Zhenla. After all, it is best to die without testimony, which can save Franz a lot of trouble.

Of course, Franz is also very clear that this kind of edict can be forged many copies, so Franz does not want the edict, but the tool for forging the edict, which is Anzan's jade seal. For this reason, Franz Willing to give Guan Jinpan a position as an assistant to the bishop.

Although the bishop's assistant is a priest, at this time Poundson is equivalent to the second in command, because this place is temporarily controlled by the church.

Ambrosius also returned to Poundsom, and he managed to find the sea ship moored on the shore, but it was not the French, but the church's spies who broke into Vietnam.

In name, Poundsun is still Ambrosius's Grand Duke's territory, and he is also the supreme commander here, so Poundson is still very happy that he can come back.

It's just that before they had time to celebrate~www.mtlnovel.com~, a sentry sent back news that more than 20,000 people from the Fan Zhu Division of the Vietnamese army were trying to cross the Xiangshan Mountains.

Franz had already given a lesson to Archbishop Rauscher, and the way to deal with this situation was to attack with fire. These things were written in the scriptures that Rauscher sent to the Poundson priests.

As a genius commander, Ambrosius also understood that setting fire to the mountain was the best choice at this time.

The purpose is not to burn all the opponents to death on the mountain, but to slow down the enemy's progress and disrupt the opponent's deployment at the same time.

As for whether it is possible to set fire in the tropical rainforest climate, please refer to the Amazon forest fire and Zhuge Liang's burning of rattan soldiers.

The reason why the Austrian army used fire to attack is also because the Vietnamese did not take the usual route. They had to learn from Hannibal to cross the Xiangshan Mountains. If they could go around and attack from the main road, it would take them at least a month longer .

At the same time, the so-called "big road" in Vietnam in this era is not spacious, and as long as a few bridges are blown up, they can only wade across the river. As we all know, "landing on the beach" has never been an easy task. The main weapon of the army is the matchlock gun, which cannot be used once it is submerged in water.

Austria's main weapon in Poundsun is the needle gun, which is not afraid of water, which is also the source of Franz's confidence that hundreds of people can hold Poundsun.

This is also why there are thousands of guns in Poundson's warehouse, while the cathars have only 800 men.

Because in Poundsun's warehouse, most of the firearms are flintlocks ready to be sold to the Chenla people, and only needle guns are used by the cathars and the Austrian army.

Fan Zhu's team was huge and easily recognizable in the mountains. Pound Xun's scouts set fire to the mountains, and the mountain fires quickly turned into raging flames.

Facing the raging wildfire, Fan Zhu could only choose to retreat.
