Chapter 703, Xiang Lin Bu Political Envoy

In the humble royal palace of Xinzhou Port, Shagu Buluo, the king of Champang, stood respectfully beside Wang Shouren and Yang Yun, and his whole body was a little shorter.

He originally thought that Daming was sending troops to help Zhancheng to clean up Annan, but who knew that Daming was not going to help Zhancheng, but to occupy Annan, and by the way, even Zhancheng was going to be occupied.

This is something he never expected.

Compared with Annan, the Ming Dynasty is more powerful, if the Ming Dynasty wants to occupy the city, what can they use to resist the city?

Just a rabble of less than 10,000 people from top to bottom of the occupied city?

They can't even win the Annan Kingdom, and they even need to pay tribute to the Annan Kingdom every year, let alone the royal division of the Ming Dynasty.

What's more, now the Ming army has also fully taken over the inside and outside of Xinzhou Port, and in Xinzhou Port, it has begun to build large wharves and ports, and it is obvious that this will be built as an important port city, and there will inevitably be a Ming Navy stationed here in the future to deter the entire Southeast Peninsula and the South Seas.

Even if you want to resist now, it's too late.

"Lord Wang, Lord Yang~"

"I have been resting with the Ming Dynasty for generations, and I have always gone to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute, why did the Ming Dynasty even annex our Zhancheng?"

Shagu Buluo said to Wang Shouren and Yang Yun with an unwilling face.

"Since you have been friendly with my Ming Dynasty for generations, last winter, my Ming Dynasty issued an agreement on the vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, why are you unwilling to sign it? Don't want to become a vassal state of my Ming Dynasty? ”

Wang Shouren sighed slightly in his heart, and now he feels that it is not easy to deal with.

If Zhancheng resisted, he would simply kill it, but it was simple, and now they did not resist, but asked why the Ming Dynasty wanted to annex Zhancheng, and told you about friendly exchanges, which is a headache.

After thinking about it, Wang Shouren also asked sharply.

Hearing Wang Shouren's words, Shagu Buluo was silent for a moment, he also knew about the agreement of the Ming vassal states, but who was willing to sign such an agreement.

Once such an agreement is signed, it will really be a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and everything will be seen by the Ming Dynasty in the future.

What's more critical is that the Ming side requires all the vassal states to learn according to the Ming Dynasty, respect Confucianism and Taoism, change Han surnames, and learn Chinese, which is unacceptable to the Zhancheng state.

In the past, Champa was a Buddhist country, but in the last two hundred years, it has also been influenced by YSL religion from the Middle East and Persia, and many people have begun to convert to this religion.

As can be seen from the names of the kings of Champa, their culture and religion have changed.

If it is changed back at this time, there will inevitably be great turmoil, and the whole country will have problems, which makes it very likely that the already weak Champa State will perish.

In addition, there is also the pressure exerted on the Champa side of the Annan Kingdom, for the Champa side, the Ming Dynasty is still very far away, but the Annan State is the north, or the vassal state of the Champang, the Annan State is unwilling to sign the vassal state agreement, and does not let the Champa side sign, and the Champa side naturally has to seriously consider this.

"How?"

"Nothing to say?"

Wang Shouren looked at Shagu Buluo and asked with a cold face.

"Xiao Wang has nothing to say, but I have never offended the Ming Dynasty in my occupation of the city, and now the Ming Dynasty wants to annex my occupation of the city, which seriously damages the prestige of the Ming Dynasty."

Shagu Buluo thought about it and replied, now at this time, he can only raise the prestige of the Ming Dynasty to see if it is useful.

After all, everyone has always known that the Ming people are extremely good-looking, from the emperor to the ordinary Ming people.

"No offense to my mind?"

Wang Shouren smiled coldly, and then asked: "My Ming merchant ships came to occupy the city to do business, why did you occupy the city and wantonly levied heavy taxes on my Ming merchant ships?" ”

"Humph!"

"Whether you occupy the city, Annam, Siam, Malacca, Java, etc., they are all afraid of power but not virtuous."

"In the past, it was said that I was a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and every time I paid tribute, my Ming Dynasty replied to it several times, and when I asked you to sign the vassal agreement last year, none of them refused."

"I went to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, because I didn't get a reward, and I held a grudge one by one, and I deliberately targeted my Ming merchants, wantonly levied heavy taxes, and deliberately colluded with thieves, ransacked my Ming merchant ships, and killed my Ming merchants."

"Don't think that I don't know anything, this time my Ming army is here to seek justice for my Ming businessman."

Wang Shouren saw that Shagu Buluo had nothing to say, so he immediately snorted coldly again.

"Xiao Wang doesn't dare, Xiao Wang doesn't dare~"

"All of this is also persecuted by Annan, they want us to occupy the city and add 30% of the tribute this year, we occupy the city and the country is small, and the people and widows can only find a way to collect the taxes of some Ming merchants."

When Shagubulo heard this, he immediately quickly knelt down and said with a handful of snot and tears.

"Hmph~"

"It seems that you are more afraid of Annan than of us."

Wang Shouren immediately laughed, in fact, it was just an excuse, anyway, the annexation of Zhancheng was already a sure thing.

Champa must be occupied, and Liu Jin also intends to continue to expand the land of Champa, directly approaching Siam, Chenla, Cambodia, and Ailao, forming a huge deterrent for them.

"Xiao Wang doesn't dare~"

"Xiao Wang doesn't dare~"

"Champa is willing to sign the agreement of the vassal state of the Ming Dynasty and become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty."

Shagubulo shook his head again and again, and then kept talking.

"It's too late, my Ming army is heading south, do you think it's just for you to sign the vassal agreement?"

"After this Zhancheng is to be directly incorporated into my Ming Dynasty and become my Ming Dynasty's Xianglin Province, as for you, for the sake of the friendly relationship between you Zhancheng and my Ming Dynasty in the past, our Ming Dynasty should treat you well, and it is indispensable to make you a prince or something."

Wang Shouren looked at it and shook his head and said.

"Can you be a prince?"

"Be the prince of the Ming Dynasty?"

When Shagubulo heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then a smile of ecstasy immediately appeared on his face.

"I am willing, I am willing, Xiao Wang is willing to be the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and Xiao Wang is willing to dedicate me to the Ming Dynasty."

Shagu Buluo was really overjoyed, thinking that if the Ming Dynasty wanted to annex the city, he, the king of the city, would definitely be unable to escape death, after all, it has been the case since ancient times.

But he didn't expect that it seemed that Da Ming's side would not only not kill himself, but also let himself go to Da Ming's side to become an idle prince, he immediately said.

He is a thousand willing, ten thousand willing.

Whether it was the envoy who went to Daming, or the Ming merchant who came to Champa to do business, they all described the prosperity and beauty of Daming to him.

He had wanted to go to Daming for a long time to have a look, but he never had the opportunity.

Now it's okay, if the king of Champa is not right, it should not be, anyway, the days of Champa are also very sad now, and he, the king, has not had a few good days.

It is better to merge into the Ming Dynasty, he, the king, can go to the Ming Dynasty to enjoy a good life in peace, and the subjects of the city country will also be the people of the Great Tomorrow in the future.

This identity and status are completely different, they will be Ming people in the future, who around them will dare to bully them again?

Seeing Shagu Buluo's appearance, Wang Shouren and Yang Yun were suddenly slightly dumbfounded again, there was still such a monarch?

But when you think about it, it seems like a good choice.

Because the king of the Champa country took the initiative to donate the country, led the entire Annan country to take the initiative to surrender to the Ming side, and was willing to merge into the Ming Dynasty, so Wang Shouren and Yang Yun did not waste a single soldier in the Champa country, and easily took over the entire Champa country.

There was no resistance from top to bottom of the Champa country, and many people continued to celebrate after learning that they would be Ming people in the future.

The Ming Dynasty of this era, which is synonymous with strength and wealth, and the Zhancheng State is synonymous with weakness and poverty, they were incorporated into the Ming Dynasty at once, and they will be Ming people in the future, which makes the whole country of Zhancheng happy.

Liu Jin and Zhang Mao, who were on the side of Thang Long City, couldn't help but be slightly shocked after receiving the news, they didn't expect to annex Champa so smoothly without encountering the slightest resistance.

Moreover, the Champa side is different from Annam, because the Champa side has been repeatedly invaded and slaughtered by the Annan Kingdom, and the Champa side does not even have decent local Haoqiang and Tusi.

In addition, there is a feud between Champa and Annan, and the Ming Dynasty destroyed Annan to avenge them, so the Champa side has no resistance to the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

This is extremely important.

Soon, Zhang Mao and Liu Jin began to send a large number of liuguan to Champa and rushed to various parts of Champa to take office, promoting the Confucianism and Taoism of the Ming Dynasty, promoting the writing and culture of the Ming Dynasty, and requiring the people here in the city to start changing their Han surnames and names.

At the same time, it was also adjusted to the Champa side, setting up the Xianglin Bu Political Envoy, and the capital was also set up in the port city of Xinzhou Port, and some of the original state capitals annexed by Annam were also reclassified into Xianglin Province, and the construction of ports and wharves began in Xinzhou Port to lay the foundation and preparation for the next sweep of the South Seas countries.

As for the king of Champong, he went to Tianjin by boat, and then went to Beijing from Tianjin, and let Emperor Hongzhi decide how to arrange it.

Kill will definitely not kill, as Wang Shouren said, since he knows him so well, then the Ming side will not treat him badly, and a prince will definitely be canonized to him.

But in the future, he will definitely stay in the capital, similar to those tribal leaders on the grassland, and be an idle foreign prince in the capital with peace of mind, enjoy life, and dream of death.

After all, he is the king of Zhancheng, if the Ming Dynasty wants to rule Xianglin Province in the future, his existence must also be extremely helpful, many things, he can save a lot of trouble with one sentence, and it can also reduce the resistance of these Zhan people in Xianglin Province.
