The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

The Western Regions is a slow process, but here Annan is fighting in full swing.

Annan's army is almost hard to resist in the face of the current Ming Dynasty.

Basically, all the towns would not be able to block for more than three days in front of the Ming army.

The only factor that had a greater impact on the Ming army was probably the weather.

The tropical climate is really too hot, especially when armor plus swords and other loads are on the body, which means that every soldier needs to carry more than [-] catties.

In this way, the speed of the march became very slow.

Fortunately, because of Daming's support for the development of the medical school, when they came to attack Annan this time, there was a medical team of nearly a thousand people who brought enough medicinal materials.

The difference from the situation in the army is that these doctors not only serve the army, but are also responsible for collecting herbs around here, or picking and recording unfamiliar herbs.

In the tropical rain forest climate, there are many types of herbaceous plants, and the categories are very complicated.

Which ones are poisonous, which ones are edible, which ones have medicinal value, and which aspects are reflected in it all require a long-term process of inspection.

"Commander Ye, it doesn't seem very good to continue like this. Our marching speed is too slow, and many soldiers have already become unaccustomed."

"Fortunately, the doctors have already prescribed the medicine, and the brothers suffering from the disease are slowly recuperating."

"It's just that the weather is too hot, and many of our supplies are easy to carry."

Jingning Hou Yesheng nodded slightly when he heard the report from his adjutant.

Although they fought everywhere in Ming Dynasty, it was their first time to fight in a tropical area like Annan.

When fighting in the north, it was extremely cold there, but here it was scorching hot.

And Annan's tropical monsoon climate has brought a lot of influence on Daming's firearms.

Here, it will rain heavily after two days, and it is very hot and humid.

It was hot and sunny in the morning, and then the cumulus clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker. After noon, it was raining cats and dogs.

After an hour or so, the rain stopped, which made it a little more comfortable.

During the march for more than half a month, it is very rare to say that there will be two days without rain.

The heavy rain came and went quickly.

Fortunately, for these problems, sufficient oil paper has been prepared long ago to protect the gunpowder carried.

It's just that in a humid environment, even if the gunpowder is not exposed to rain, it is difficult to keep it dry.

When attacking a small village a few days ago, there was a problem of a large number of matchlock guns misfiring.

After shooting, the gunpowder cannot be fully burned due to humidity, and it is more troublesome to clean up.

The weather alone almost wiped out Daming's firearms.

Puding Hou Chen Huan no longer had the initial drive, but looked rather haggard.

It's not that they can't beat Annan's army, and their enemy is the damn weather.

Relying on his good health, Puding Hou Chen Huan did not avoid the heavy rain and still captured a town.

As a result, heat and evil entered the body within two days.

To put it simply, it is wind-heat and cold.

"Ahem, I know, how did Meng Yuan attack this small Annan country back then, and brought hundreds of thousands of elites to come here, but they were defeated instead."

"Where is this a war? It's clear that they came here to suffer. Those who grew up on the grassland don't care about the cold. The heat is unbearable."

"If it wasn't for the foresight of His Majesty the Grandson to arrange enough doctors for us, maybe how many brothers are left in our army who can fight."

"In this hellish place, snakes, rats, rats and ants scare me to death. The palm-sized insects were almost bitten by me. In my current situation, I still don't give them away for nothing."

"Fortunately, there are tents with me. At the beginning, I said that I would prepare these tents. I also said that His Highness Taisun thought that we rough people are too delicate, and complained a few words."

"It turned out to be saving our lives and our brothers' lives."

Puding Hou Chen Huan coughed while drinking the medicine prepared by the doctor.

The dark potion was obviously very bitter, but Chen Huan didn't frown when he drank it, but because of the wind evil, his voice became hoarse when he spoke.

If you don't pay attention to your nose, it's like running water, so you can only wipe it with a cloth.

Before the 30 troops from the Ming Dynasty set out to conquer Annan, Zhu Ying issued an order through the Royal Chamber of Commerce that they must bring enough tents.

At that time, many people still had complaints in their hearts.

Those who are marching and fighting can't sleep anywhere, and His Royal Highness Taisun didn't come here by himself, and he also brought a tent, wouldn't that increase the burden on the brothers.

The result is that now, everyone is thanking His Royal Highness the Grandson.

There are too many poisons in this rainforest, and the key point is that the weather is very hot, where can I wear any clothes when I sleep, and I get bitten at night.

With the shelter of the tent, among other things, at least I can sleep well and feel refreshed the next day.

I can't even imagine how this would be possible without a tent.

A large area of ​​Fengreganmao is a great harm to the army.

Back then, what happened to the 30-[-] Mongolian cavalry.

Before reaching the capital of Annan, a large group of people fell ill.

Originally, there were not many marching doctors here, and the mutual infection of wind, heat and cold directly produced a large number of viruses, which led to the outbreak of small-scale plague.

Not to mention the war, it is a good thing to be able to go back.

The war horses living on the grassland are even more impatient with the climate here. When a large group of cavalry comes over, they don't even talk about fighting, and they are always in torture.

Such a situation, from the perspective of future generations, seems a little incomprehensible.

After all, in a tropical monsoon climate, who would march with a horse, or go directly to the cavalry.

But in today's environment, with a low level of awareness of the world, most of them don't take these factors into account, and there is no teaching about this aspect of culture.

Not to mention the Mongols, who are almost all illiterate.

Furthermore, how can the superiors care about these issues related to the lives of soldiers at the bottom.

When an order is given, it is done.

The results are naturally predictable.

Fortunately, most of Daming's soldiers are from Guangxi and Yunnan. Although they are not used to it, they can still bear it.

"Assemble the auxiliary soldiers of the army and let them help the doctors to solve the logistical problems, especially paying attention to avoiding the occurrence of plague."

"Fighting Annan, I think the war is not the most important thing, the important thing is how to get there."

Jingning Hou Yesheng looked at the lush jungle and the scorching sun above his head, and said with a slight sigh.

Only when you are in such an environment can you know how difficult the problems you encounter are.

The fighting strength of the Annan people is so little, they are completely regarded as the five scum of the war, but it is not easy to find someone in these four jungles.

For Daming, the current Hu Jishou can be said to be very difficult.

The situation on the border was constantly being reported, casting a shadow over Hu Jishu's head.

Climate is Annan's natural barrier, especially in this era.

For Daming's firearms, there is no fear at all. A lot of rain and humid environment are destined to be greatly affected on the march.

This is very clear from the [-] elite soldiers stationed in Annan.

It took almost half a year for the original Ming garrison to slowly adapt.

Because of having enough understanding, Hu Jishou dared to rebel against Daming so unscrupulously.

It's just that once it is steady and steady now, Hu Jishang feels a little helpless.

Unlike the former Mongolian Yuan, Ming's army has strong logistical support.

Whether it is food or medicinal materials, there will be no shortage.

In other words, it was only a matter of time before the Ming army arrived at the capital of Hanoi.

Judging from the current situation, it will be possible to arrive under the tower of the Annan King Capital in Hanoi within a month.

The towns ahead and the like did not pose any danger to the Ming army.

Annan's soldiers are mainly in two directions.

One is the forbidden army of the Annan court, and the other is the local army.

At present, the number of Annan's forbidden army is about [-]. These are the backbone of Annan's army. Every forbidden army is a real soldier, not an auxiliary soldier.

The local army is very different from Annan's Central Forbidden Army.

At this time, Annan had a total of nineteen routes, and each route was organized into one army and twenty front regiments to maintain law and order and arrest bandits, commonly known as the route army.

Due to the difference in geographical location, Shannan Road has four armies under its jurisdiction, and Haidong Road has two armies under its jurisdiction. The commander of each route is called the general manager.

Among them is the princely army.

The Princely Army was developed from domestic slaves and princely children. From a certain level, its status is much higher than that of the ordinary Route Army.

Under normal circumstances, there are not many establishments. During wartime, a large number of noble household slave guards will join in.

There are many chieftains in the Annan area, and the basic structure is mainly based on the village community. The troops called up during the war are called the township soldiers.

The status of the township soldiers is the lowest, not only to fight, but also to be used as auxiliary soldiers.

It is similar to the Weisuo of the Ming Dynasty. After the war, they will go back to farming for production.

The Ming army has come all the way, and has already broken the Annan three-way army.

However, the Third Route Army did not bring much casualties to Daming at all, but tens of thousands more prisoners.

Now these captives are used to carry logistics supplies for the army and serve as guides.

In the lush jungle, it is easy to get lost and get lost if you are not careful.

Annan's warlord opera is actually the local army's disobedience to Annan's central court.

Hu Jishou took advantage of the pressure from Daming to win over all the local troops.

The generals of these local armies are actually not stupid, most of them don't want to confront Daming.

But now Daming's enlightenment has had a great influence on them themselves.

For example, the most powerful clan among them, the Daiyi clan with a relatively large population in Annan, is very disgusted with Daming now.

The Dai people are the Annan Tu people, local aborigines.

The reason for this resentment is that [-] elite soldiers were stationed in Annan.

Because of the garrison, according to the requirements of Daming, the rations of Daming soldiers need to be supplied by Annan.

The Annan royal family had no choice but to increase taxes, which put a lot of burden on the people of Annan.

People with a heart take advantage of this to stir up hatred between the people of Annan and Daming.

As a result, some people in the Annan area are not very friendly to Daming.

Now Annan's various managers are basically concentrated in the capital.

Annan's army of nearly 40 has accumulated near the capital.

This is almost more than [-]% of Annan's entire territory.

It sounds like it is more than [-] more than the Ming army, and it is still Annan's home game.

But this did not give Hu Jiyak and these local warlords any sense of security.

Soldiers are completely different from soldiers.

Of the more than 40 Annan troops, more than half are parallel imports, skinny, and have enough food, not to mention weapons and armaments.

I am afraid that not half of them can have a good knife in their hands.

Annan's Central Forbidden Army still has more than [-] troops here, which is comparable to that of the Ming Army.

The key problem is that the generals of Ming Dynasty are not comparable to their small place.

The weapons and equipment are even more crushing.

On the battlefield, it doesn't matter how many people can fight.

In addition to weapons, there are morale, army discipline, logistics supplies and other comprehensive combat power blessings.

In the case of a direct confrontation, there will be no accidents, and Annan must be completely defeated.

Both Annan and Daming have a clear understanding of this point.

At present, Annan's only support is the climate.

Relying on being the same as Meng Yuan in the past, when the Ming army came over, there was not much combat power to speak of.

It's just that the current intelligence shows that this possibility may be very small.

The leading general of Daming was very stable, and he didn't mean to rush for success at all.

In the residence of Prime Minister Annan.

Hu Jishou gathered with the local governors.

Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty's march, such meetings have been held almost every day.

Hu Jishou didn't mention going to the palace either.

For the current Annan Palace, a state of house arrest is implemented.

His rebellion this time was a gimmick to drive away Daming and restore the rule of the Annan royal family, not to say that he wanted to rebel and become an emperor.

The relationship with the local warlords is a temporary alliance.

Of course, Hu Jiyao, who has mastered more than [-] forbidden troops, is naturally the most powerful here.

"Hu Xiang, according to the present situation, the Ming army is less than a month away."

"We're not going to obstruct them on the road, do we have to wait until they hit the city before we fight back?"

"I'll sit here and discuss every day, what can be the result of the discussion."

"In my opinion, why don't we go to the vanguard of the first army first and fight against this Ming."

Many times of deliberations were fruitless, and there was a local warlord in charge, and his patience was gradually worn down.

Coupled with the increasing pressure, the mood has become extremely irritable.

Finally, he couldn't help it and started to explode.

Immediately, more local managers raised dissatisfaction.

Hu Jiyao's eyes were gloomy. He knew that the local army wanted to take this opportunity to make trouble and get more benefits from him.
