Rebirth of the Four Seas Emperor

Due to the Manila tragedy, Hou Yao's return to Bao'an County was postponed.

In March, Zhou Tiesheng captured the city of Mancajia occupied by the Portuguese, and the largest European stronghold in Asia was cleared.

The massacre in Manila was basically over. Huang Xingdong led all the Xia immigrants to move to their hometown of Luzon, and the city of Manila was handed over to the indigenous people for self-government.

In mid-March, Captain Iron Hook from the Java Sea went north to destroy the Johor Sultanate. King Ali Shah II was killed, and the royal family, princes and ministers were slaughtered.

In April, Hou Yao led his troops to land in Mansika. The Kingdom of Johor was already dealing with anarchy, and some people went to Mansika to ask Hou Yao to send Daxia people to govern.

Hou Yao readily agreed to take over the Kingdom of Johor and establish the Malacca Province of Daxia.

In the same month, Captain Tie Gou landed on Sulu Island and massacred the Three Kings of Sulu.

The three royal families of the three kings, Badu Geba Labu, the king of the east, Mahala Gemading, the west king, and Badu Geba Labu, the king of the cave, were all massacred.

Brunei sent troops to reunify the entire territory of Bo Ni Island.

In May, the pirate Captain Tiegou landed in Manila and massacred the city.

Since then, for three years, the indigenous kingships in all regions of Southeast Asia, except Brunei, have faced the butcher knife of Captain Tigou.

Since Captain Tiegou's men were mainly composed of Japanese pirates, this massacre was called the 'Japanese-Japanese Massacre' or the 'Southeast Asian Aboriginal Purge' by later historians.

In May, Hou Yao went to Baigu City to meet with King Xin and formally planned the strategy to unify the entire Indochina Peninsula.

There are also powerful countries such as Arakan, Cambodia, and Houli in the Indochina Peninsula.

Both Cambodia and Arakan relied on hiring the Portuguese to stabilize and resist the invasion of other countries.

After Malacca was emptied, it was easy for both countries to deal with the loss of the Portuguese, their biggest support.

There is no need for the security forces to be dispatched. Naresuan's Siamese troops alone can easily handle it.

In August, Cambodia and Arakan were pacified. Due to the extreme lack of officials, King Tan announced the imperial examination in Indochina on Hou Yao's suggestion.

Anyone who could speak Bactrian Mandarin was eligible to take the exam, which was known as the Peninsula Imperial Examination in history.

The imperial examination is scheduled for March next year, which means there will be nearly a year for the news to spread.

The news soon spread to Daxia, and scholars from Yunnan, Guangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, Hunan and other places came to take the exam.

In October, Hou Yao personally led his troops from Baigu, preparing to attack Houli, the last great dynasty in Indochina.

……

capital,

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Ji Gaosheng officially ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor under the protection of the Tianwu Gang.

In March, King Chu Ji Gaocheng proclaimed himself emperor in Xiangyang, and informed the world that Ji Gaosheng had killed his father and conspired to rebel, and raised troops to appease Jingnan.

In May, Ning Wang Ji Gaoyun proclaimed himself emperor in Shenyang, and informed the world that Ji Gaosheng had killed his father and conspired to rebel, and raised troops to appease Jingnan.

The three Duoyan guards, namely Taining guard, Duoyan guard and Fuyu guard, were loyal to King Ning.

At the same time, Numu Haqi, a newly rising Jurchen force in Jianzhou, surrendered to King Ning. King Ning conferred Numu Haqi as the governor of the left guard of Jianzhou and General Longhu.

This move is tantamount to clearing the name of the crossbow mother Hutch who raised an army among the bandits.

With official recognition, Nu Mu Haqi could legitimately conquer Jurchen tribes such as Jianzhou and Haixi.

He could even find various reasons to conquer the entire Nurgandusi guard base.

In June, Hou Li declared that he respected the King of Ye, Ji Qiming, as the son of the Great Xia Dynasty, and wanted to help him conquer Ji Gaosheng, the false prince of the Xia Dynasty.

However, on the road from Houli to Daxia, Mo Chao was blocking the way.

You need to conquer Mo Chao before you can go north. Later, Li Chao was preparing to send troops to attack Mo Chao.

At this time, the 16th emperor of the Later Li Dynasty, Sejong Le Wei Dam, was originally a puppet emperor controlled by Zheng Song, the head of the Zheng family.

But since he joined the National Master, his status has skyrocketed.

Thanh Hoa Royal City

The 19-year-old Houli Shizong Li Weitan lay on the chest of the national teacher Xie Chunniang with a face full of flattery:

"Mother, Mr. Zheng wants to send troops to raise the dragon. Do you want to support him?"

Xie Chunniang held him at the waist and hugged him to her chest:

"If he wants to go, he can go. It's understandable that a man is older and more career-minded. No matter how hard he works, isn't it for the sake of your Li family?"

Li Weitan shook his head gently:

"Your Majesty, this country is mine as long as you are here. If you were not here, would Mr. Zheng eat me every minute?"

Xie Chunniang touched the back of Li Weitan's head:

"You, don't act like a child. Great Xia is in chaos now. It's the time when Houli State is exerting its strength. You must have the monarch and ministers working together to take control of the Central Plains. The Central Plains is so big. Go and see it. Don't stare at Jiaozhi every day. What’s the point of beating around in a place as big as a palm?”

Li Weitan didn't dare to say anything more, so he just lay on Xie Chunniang's chest and stopped talking.

Xie Chunniang shook her head:

"You are still a young child. It's time to find a queen for you. It's time for Xiu'er to come back. She is perfect to be your princess."

Li Weitan shook his head like a rattle:

"No, empress, I want to stay by your side for the rest of my life."

Xie Chunniang patted his butt:

"Silly boy, my wife is old. I can protect you for the rest of your life. Xiu'er is extremely talented and can endure hardships. Her achievements in the future will never be inferior to mine. If you don't want to be swallowed up to the point where no bones and dregs are left, then Just listen to my advice and marry Xiu'er. She has a simple mind. As long as she is by your side, no one can hurt you. It's a pity that you refused to break her body back then, so I could only help you take her away with my hands. You are a virgin, and if you lose your virginity, you are not afraid of her running away with someone else. Anyway, when she comes back, treat her well. She is the one who can protect you for the rest of your life."

Li Weitan looked at Xie Chunniang with a moved face and said:

"Empress, thank you for thinking so much for me. You are so kind..."

Xie Chunniang kissed Li Weitan on the mouth:

"You little charmer, alas, you have made your old mind drunk again."

Li Weitan said "Hmm" emotionally and hugged Xie Chunniang's neck tightly...

At this moment, handsome men with fair skin and burly figures walked in hurriedly. It was the Duke Zheng Song:

“Mother, cough, um——.”

Xie Chunniang, who was having a hard time with Li Weitan, came back to her senses, raised her eyes to look at the person who came in, and then patted Li Weitan's butt:

"You go out to play for a while first, and I'll have a chat with Asong."

Li Weitan stood up reluctantly, glanced sideways at Zheng Song, shook his head and walked out with a cold hum.

Zheng Song glanced at Li Weitan's back with hatred, then turned his head and said with a flattering expression:

"Mother, good news. Just now the Yao family sent an envoy over, saying that they are also willing to honor King Ye as the emperor, and are willing to help the emperor return to the capital to revitalize the court."

Xie Chunniang smiled softly and said:

"That's indeed good news. Come here, Asong, you haven't come to see me for a long time."

Li Weitan walked over and hugged Xie Chunniang in his arms:

"It's been a long time there. Didn't you just come back from the capital? I couldn't see you even if I wanted to. By the way, His Highness King Ye has lost the emperor. Do you think that old man is still alive?"

Xie Chunniang said bitterly:

"I also think that the old guy won't die so easily. I just don't know the identities of the people who saved him. There's no way to find them in the vast sea of ​​people. I can only wait for him to jump out on his own."

Zheng Song said solemnly:

"If this is the case, will we be criticized if we march into Daxia?"

Xie Chunniang shook her head:

"No, that old guy has lost people's hearts. As long as the troops are strong enough, there is no need to worry. Don't think about anything else first. Let's capture the old capital of Thang Long."

Zheng Song said expectantly:

"That's why I came here. Shenglong City is strong and difficult to break through from the front. Can you please... or borrow the power of 'Blue Falling Yellow Spring'..."

Xie Chunniang's face turned as cold as frost and her tone was solemn:

"Just give up on this idea. It's your men's business to strive for hegemony in the world. If you don't have the ability, just be your Taiping Duke."

Zheng Song was so frightened by Xie Chunniang's tone that he felt cold all over, and hurriedly comforted her gently:

"Yes... I'm sorry. I know I was wrong. Don't be angry. I'm sorry, baby. I can fight it off myself."

Xie Chunniang was noncommittal, and the anger on her face softened a little.

Zheng Song felt relieved and took a long breath and said:

"By the way, honey, how are you doing with the injury you sustained in the capital? Come on, let me take a look."

Then he picked up the clothes on Xie Chunniang's lower abdomen, and saw a new knife mark half a foot long, like a big centipede.

"Ah..., this Lu Feiyang is so cruel...how...how did he hurt you like this?"

Xie Chunniang acted like a little girl:

"Oh, that pervert Lu Feiyang only has eyes for men, and there has never been a woman. But fortunately, he also took revenge. It's just a pity that the heartless man escaped, otherwise this time he would have wiped out the people who have lived for decades. The grudges have been resolved. It's a pity that these three old guys, Chen Yuda, Jiang Shaoyuan, and You Qiwei, are so greedy for life that they dare not leave their lair, otherwise I will kill these dirty guys together."

Zheng Song hurriedly said:

"No, you can't take risks. The three sea kings are not that easy to deal with. It's better to wait for the opportunity."

Xie Chunniang hummed softly, then put her head close to Zheng Song's arms:

"Asong, love me..."

Nanhaiwei Yaojia

Yao Yingzhe persuaded Yao Yuanzhou earnestly:

"Father, Hou Yao told my child before that as long as we don't help foreigners, he will not care about our family. Now King Ye is obviously trying to lure the wolf into the house. If we really support him, there will be nothing we can do when Hou Yao comes back. Accounted for."

Yao Yuanzhou said angrily:

"Hou Yao, Hou Yao, I think you are frightened by Hou Yao. I don't believe you can't see clearly the current situation. Whether it is King Zhou, King Ning, or King Chu, they all have enough power to fight for hegemony." The power of the world, if we go there, it can only be regarded as the icing on the cake. Only King Ye, Annan's little power can be kept in Jiaozhi, but if he comes out, he will die. Without our help, King Ye is just a joke. With our current strength, he has already been With the power to fight for world hegemony, no one in the world except the Baoan Army can be our opponent. You can see with your own eyes how powerful the flintlock gun is. As long as we can send King Ye back to the capital, our family's hegemony will be just around the corner. ….”
