Chapter 743: Thunderous Power
Thanh Hoa City, the second largest city in Annan, is second only to Dongguan (Hanoi), but it is still far from being comparable to the important cities in the Ming Dynasty . This is an ancient city, with moss-covered bricks on the walls, as if telling its heritage.
In early October, Liu Sheng led more than 20,000 troops of the government army and stationed them on the banks of the Majiang River and east of Thanh Hoa City.
Liu Sheng was riding a horse, more than a hundred steps away from the city wall, looking at the city in front. A few arrows were thrown from the air from time to time, making the guards and soldiers very nervous, fearing that the commander would make a mistake. Liu Sheng, however, looked calm as he listened to the military intelligence report from the scout general who had just arrived.
"On the day we arrived at Majiangkou, Chen Jikkuo's men went south. The latest detection report was at noon today. Careful inspection found that Chen Jikkuo

"Bang, bang, bang!" There was a sound of gongs and drums on the streets of Thanh Hoa City. Several officials and a group of soldiers were beating gongs and shouting loudly in Chinese and Annan."The Ming Empire and the vassal state of Annan are friendly and family. The rebel Chen Jikuan falsely claimed to be a member of the Chen clan and started a rebellion that harmed the local area. The Ming royal army went to fight him, which was in line with the great righteousness and orthodoxy. The legitimate king of the Chen clan has returned to Annan, and with the help of the Ming army, he has put down the rebellion and benefited the people. He has restored the Chen royal lineage and allowed the people to live and work in peace. The army entered the city without harming anyone, and posted notices to keep the people safe at the government office and the city gates.""The government troops protect those who abide by the law and protect the good. Those who take advantage of t

The turbulent day had come to an end, and the night outside was gradually falling. The lanterns under the eaves and the oil lamps lit in the rooms made the houses in the government office in Thanh Hoa City look very old. Suddenly, Ruan found that the world had become quiet without her knowing when.Liu Sheng's voice said, "I ordered the release of Ruan Jian's family for a reason. But it was not because of my lust for Madam's beauty, but because of my own knot in my heart."His expression quickly dimmed, and he sighed, "During the 'Clash of Crimes', I led my army to surrender to the current emperor, and my family was killed by the deposed prince and his gang..."When Ruan heard this, her doubts were immediately resolved. She couldn't help but secretly look at Liu Sheng, and felt that this handsome noble from the Ming Kingdom was not as scary as the rumors said. She almost immediately believed that Liu Sheng was not a bad person and would not hurt her.S

"Capture Nghe An within half a month! Wipe out all the rebels and capture the rebel leader Chen Jikuan." Liu Sheng gave orders to the generals around him, and his attitude was very serious.All the generals clasped their fists and accepted the order, and everyone was excited.Liu Sheng did not make such a decision impulsively. The Ming army had been stationed in Thanh Hoa City for three days and Liu Sheng had called the civil and military officials to discuss matters several times, but he had never discussed the deadline for the attack. It was not until today that he learned that Chen Jikuo's troops had continued southward to Nghe An (Vinh City) after reaching Yanzhou (Huangmei) that he was full of confidence in the time.The entire journey from Thanh Hoa to Yen Chau and then to Nghe An is about 300 li. If it was just a march, the Ming army, with infantry, cavalry and baggage, could reach Nghe An within seven days; but because there was Yen Chau on the way a

Liu Sheng's troops of the Ming army were advancing towards Yanzhou. The "Dai Viet" Emperor Chen Jikuan had already left Yanzhou and led his troops to continue advancing towards Nghe An.Nguyen Cang Yi, who was stationed in Thanh Hoa before, was a great general and had a high rank in the imperial court. However, even a great general like Nguyen Cang Yi, who defended the important city of Thanh Hoa, was defeated after several days. Chen Jikuo and others had realized that Liu Sheng's army was very powerful, so they decisively gave up Yanzhou, where the city walls were weak.However, at this time, Wang Lili, the pacification king, and Ruan Jian, the minister of war, had not yet left Yanzhou.Ruan Jian's family arrived in Yanzhou. After meeting Ruan Jian, they temporarily settled down in Yanzhou City.The family was very lucky on their way to escape from Thanh Hoa, and they did not encounter bandits or enemy troops. They finally arrived safely, and everyone

The next morning, Le Loi and Nguyen Chien left Yanzhou on horseback and came to the bank of a river called Songlai River, which is located in the north of Yanzhou City, only a few dozen miles away.They were accompanied by a team of guards, but only Ruan Jian and the other two looked very tired. It was because they had slept too little after their candlelight conversation last night.The team crossed the Songlai River via a bamboo and wood arch bridge. They ran north along the road for a while and soon saw a military camp built in the mountains.Nguyen Chien followed Le Loi and led his horse up the hill, and saw fences, earthen walls, and some huts in the bushes. The soldiers inside came to pay homage to Le Loi, and they seemed to be Le Loi's subordinates. But there were not many soldiers stationed here, perhaps only more than a hundred people.Several people walked out of the military camp and came to a stand near the hillside, which was a piece of he

"Da da da..." A sound of horse hooves came from the north. A rider ran towards Liu Sheng's flag and shouted, "Report!"Liu Sheng on the other side turned around, and without waiting for the knight to come closer, his eyes immediately turned to a woman behind him.The woman following on horseback was none other than Ruan, and there were two Ming army knights behind and behind her. Mrs. Ruan had already taken off the bamboo hat on her head, and she said in Chinese with a not quite standard tone, "General Liu knows me and I didn't lie to you."The knight who went to report the news had already arrived next to Liu Sheng, where he was saying something and turning to point at Ruan. Liu Sheng's eyes had already been cast on Ruan, and he did not look at the sergeant in front of him.Ruan didn't say much anymore. Since Liu Sheng saw her, he would definitely meet her.But at this time, Ruan became even more nervous. She felt as if her heart was twitching,

It was already the end of November when Liu Sheng's victory report reached Dongguan (Hanoi).Dongguan City was decorated with lanterns and full of joy. Those who celebrated included not only the civil and military officials sent by the Ming Dynasty, but also many Annan people.Among them were the surviving wealthy families after the fall of the Hu family, the clan nobles who had taken refuge with Chen Zhengyuan's family, and the Annan people such as Ruan Gonggui and Ruan Zhi who had long since defected to the Ming Dynasty. These people wished that Chen Jikuan would be finished soon. Otherwise, if the Annan rebels gain power, they will be the ones to be liquidated; everything they gained in the past few years will of course be in vain.Zhang Fujun had long since eliminated all the enemy troops on the plains, that is, the rebels in the Yellow River Basin. He has now returned to the "Annan Governor's Mansion" in Dongguan City.At this time, there were sti

The news of the great victory in suppressing the rebellion in Annan was sent to the capital by express horses, but the emperor and his ministers were not happy at this time, because just a few days ago, an unprecedented earthquake occurred in the capital, followed by several aftershocks.The Imperial Astronomical Observatory, which copied Zhang Heng's seismograph based on records in ancient books, failed to predict the earthquake. After the earthquake, many houses collapsed in the capital, and the city was in panic and chaos. Countless people died without knowing it. The capital of the Ming Dynasty, which was gradually becoming peaceful, suddenly suffered a heavy blow.Under the advice of his ministers, Zhu Gaoxu was forced to publicly admit that he had recently neglected rituals and sacrifices, and promised to follow the rules, fear God, be strict in governing officials, eliminate bad policies, etc., in order to appease God's anger.Although Zhu Gaoxu had a
