From Soldier To Emperor

"What? Ming's army occupied Yuetu?"

In the palace of the capital of the Kingdom of Siam, the gray-haired Songtsen Gambo asked in shock.

"Yes, your Majesty, the Ming army is equipped with a large number of guns, and the corps stationed in the overland only fled back with less than a thousand people..."

Yuetu is the land of South Vietnam conquered by the Kingdom of Siam. It can be regarded as the middle and upper reaches of the indigenous kingdoms in Southeast Asia. It is also one of the few small countries that have achieved centralized power.

South Vietnam is the last Southeast Asian peninsula country conquered by the Kingdom of Siam. It has not had time to establish a province, so it is habitually called Yuetu.

Of course, the princes and nobles of South Vietnam have been almost killed by Songtsen Gampo's army. South Vietnam is also stationed in one of the three main field armies of the Kingdom of Siam, and is under military control.

If the Ming army can arrive one year late, Yuetu will complete the establishment of provinces.

Songtsen Gampo has been committed to promoting the centralization of the official system, which is to use bureaucrats from A to rule B, bureaucrats from B to rule C, and so on.

In this way, it is difficult for local bureaucrats to form a powerful force that cannot be lost. After a period of time, the central government will also rotate to ensure that the local chief officials will not manage in one place for too long.

These tricks were learned by Songtsen Gambo from Richard, and they are of great benefit to centralization of power.

At the same time, the army of the Kingdom of Siam is also the same. The chief officer of the regiment with a size of more than two thousand is no longer static. They will be mobilized before every war, and the main commander will also hand over the talisman after the war. Go back to Chaozhong and make a confession.

In this way, it is possible to guarantee to the greatest extent the phenomenon that soldiers are about to happen.

At the same time, the military pay of the officers and soldiers is also distributed by the imperial court, rather than being handed over to the generals for control.

Although doing so will increase administrative costs, it has great benefits to centralization.

Because of this kind of system, the Siam Kingdom nowadays has not formed a warlord vassal with a certain degree of power, and the power is always held in the hands of the gray-haired Songtsen Gampo.

Unfortunately, the internal reorganization of the Kingdom of Siam is good, but the army is still stuck in the cold weapon era.

Compared with the original Southeast Asian indigenous prince’s army, the Siamese army wearing iron armor and using a strong bow and stiff crossbow is unmatched. However, before the Ming army is fully equipped with guns, the battle-tested Siamese army is fundamentally capable. Can't stop a few rounds of guns!

This is still the main field force of Siam. If it is a cannon fodder servant army composed of prisoners of war, it will not even be able to withstand the artillery bombardment of the Ming army!

Therefore, the entire Siamese army stationed on the land of South Vietnam was easily annihilated by Richard's soldiers...

After Songtsan Gambo understood that the Ming army was led by the emperor, Li Cha, his already aging body finally couldn't support it, and he fell ill under the huge blow.

After learning that the Ming army already had a powerful artillery, and treating the armor as a musket with nothing, Songtsen Gambo's condition increased day by day!

Even Songtsan Gambo has arranged for his newly grown eldest son to succeed to the throne!

In the eyes of outsiders, Songtsen Gampo's illness was due to the exhaustion during the expansion process, the overdraft of his health, and the bad news from the front line did not alleviate for a while.

In fact, Songtsen Gampo fell ill because he was frightened by Richard!

Because Songtsen Gambo understood that his kingdom of Siam would soon fall under the guns of the Ming army!

Songtsen Gampo originally thought that with the natural dangers of the mountains and the shadow of the Great Song in the south of the East Asian continent, he could live a small life in the Southeast Asian peninsula.

The mountainous coverage of the East Asian continent and the Southeast Asian peninsula has caused Songtsen Gampo to be very blocked from news about the East Asian continent, and Songtsen Gampo has been busy playing the game of conquest, and has no extra energy and time to understand the situation in the East Asian continent.

As a result, when Zhengzhi was satisfied, Richard Songtsen Gambo's nightmare suddenly appeared and hit him by surprise.

Although the Kingdom of Siam has three major field armies, the one with the strongest combat effectiveness is undoubtedly the one that conquered and guarded the last indigenous kingdom of Southeast Asia-the Kingdom of South Vietnam.

As a result, the First Army of the Kingdom of Siam, which was mixed with a large number of elite fighters from the older generation of Tufan, was easily annihilated by the Ming army.

Songtsen Gambo, who understands Richard's behavior, knows that there is nothing in the Kingdom of Siam that can stop Richard.

For the lunatic Richard, as long as the army is not hit hard, he will continue to fight no matter how difficult it is!

The actual situation was as expected by Songtsen Gampo. On the battlefield, there was a smooth journey, and the invincible Ming army fell a large number of soldiers because of the harsh environment and unacceptable water and soil.

The advance army formed by Richard can be confirmed, completely wiped out by the Southeast Asian environment...

Finally, in desperation, Richard had to give up using the advance army as cannon fodder, and instead recruited local young people from Southeast Asia to transport logistics materials for himself and serve as combat cannon fodder.

Richard ordered that every guard soldier must capture ten Southeast Asian indigenous young men as militiamen. As a result, more than 27,000 guards captured more than 200,000 Southeast Asian cannon fodder!

Wherever he went, it swept the entire Southeast Asian natives like locusts!

After conquering the homeland of South Vietnam ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Richard entered the densely populated area of ​​the Southeast Asian peninsula, because there are large plains suitable for farming, and due to the suitable climate, it can even be grown three times a year!

Even if the farming technology is backward, superior natural conditions can nourish a large number of people.

Of course, the more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians included a large number of prisoners of war. Due to the repeated victories of the Ming army, the army of the Kingdom of Siam did not have much will to resist in front of guns and surrendered in large areas.

The Guards Corps also began to gradually divide their garrison places.

The militiamen in the hands of each soldier are their "little brothers." The soldiers of the Guards armed them with cold weapons to maintain law and order in the occupied areas and maintain logistic transportation.

Because of this, even if Richard went out with half of the guards, the number of people on the front line still exceeded 100,000!

On weekdays, every ten young people in Southeast Asia have a guard infantry in custody, and there is no need to worry about large-scale disturbances.

And because these young people in Southeast Asia are managed separately, ten people in groups, don't worry that they will unite against the Ming army.

This trick Richard learned from Genghis Khan in the history of the earth in the previous life, and it is very easy to use!

As for the siege, the Ming army with artillery is about the same difficulty as the field battle. Most of the indigenous cities in Southeast Asia are made of wood, and they cannot hold the artillery shells.

Every time they lay a new territory, the Guards infantry would take people to the countryside to capture young and strong laborers to supplement their vacancies.

During the siege, the guards would drive the young Zhuangs to charge with cold weapons, so the losses of the young Zhuangs in Southeast Asia are still quite large.
