Chapter 131: Vietnam (2)

"You should know that the Ming Dynasty doesn't want any war to happen now, right?" , Nan Feng asked rhetorically in a subtle tone. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Today's Da Ming, who is bent on developing industry, has no energy to care about other things. Not to mention starting a war!

It is conceivable that as soon as this Vietnam strategy is proposed, it will definitely be rejected by the cabinet.

In particular, the Minister of Industry, Mu Chun, did not want a war to happen. Because then the industrial process will be interrupted.

Liu Weiguo and the others also thought of this, so they replied confidently: "Taking Vietnam is the best way to break the blockade."

Especially in Vietnam today, there are many civil wars and strife..."

Since 1771, the three Vietnamese brothers Nguyen Van Ngot, Nguyen Van Dinh and Nguyen Van Hue launched a large-scale peasant uprising in Tay Son, and destroyed the Nguyen, Trung and Hou Lê dynasties successively.

By 1778, Nguyen Van Ngọ was the first to become emperor. In 1786, he proclaimed himself Emperor Central Emperor in Quy Nhon. Nguyen Van Hue was proclaimed emperor in Hue in 1788.

Among them, the northern part of Vietnam is ruled by Nguyen Van Hue, the central part is ruled by Nguyen Van Ng, and the south is ruled by Nguyen Van Hue.

From the very beginning, the seeds of disintegration and disharmony were planted.

So the 'old Nguyen' regime in the south, Nguyen Phuc Anh, with the help of the French missionary Pak Duo Loc, made a comeback in 1789 and recaptured the Gia Dinh area. Prepare for the Northern Expedition.

In 1792, Nguyen Van Huy and Nguyen Van Nguyen of the Tay Son Dynasty passed away one after another. And their sons were growing at odds. In addition, the officials they appointed were all old people and landlords and gentry of the former dynasties, and they were corrupt and corrupt, and the politics and situation were corrupt and rotten. The people lived in hardship and darkness.

This people's heart is almost lost!

In the south, Nguyen Phuc Anh has actively managed people's livelihood and developed the economy, and has gained a firm foothold in the local area. Such a comparison is a world of difference.

As a result, after Nguyen Phuc Anh launched a full-scale Northern Expedition in 1790, the regime of Nguyen Van Ngo, which was entrenched in the center, was defeated one after another. As a result, all the areas south of Phu Yen fell into the hands of Nguyen Phuc Anh.

It is now 1795, and the two sides have been fighting fiercely and facing each other for a long time. This is a good time for external forces to step in.

It's just that Nanfeng still has doubts.

Because as far as the facts are concerned, the Ming Dynasty has already intervened in the Vietnam War. Like Nguyen Phuc Anh in the south, although he signed a secret treaty with France, the arrival of the French Revolution and his life made this secret treaty a waste of paper.

Therefore, after Ruan Phuc Ying set foot in Nanyang in the Ming Dynasty, he actively established contact with the Ming Dynasty and sought assistance.

After considering many aspects, Da Ming agreed to his request.

This matter is still decided by Nanfeng himself!

Now, under Nguyen Phuc Anh, a musket unit of 2,000 people has been formed. Personnel training is also helped by Daming. At the same time, Daming obtained a large number of low-cost minerals, as well as a steady stream of immigrants.

Of course, it also obtained the free use of Jiading Port, as well as the preferential conditions of free entry of goods.

This level of intervention will not only prop up the pro-Ming Nguyen regime, but also make a big war and fight for money.

Therefore, in Nanfeng's opinion, it is enough!

If you want to go further, you can only send troops and intervene with arms!

In this case, it is difficult to say, it is not a fire to the body. After all, Vietnam seems to be easy to take, but in fact, it is not easy.

Since the Tang Dynasty broke away from the territory of China and embarked on the road of independence. Vietnam has gone through feudal dynasties such as Wu, Ding, Qianli, Li, Chen, and Houli, and although the people do not have any people's consciousness and knowledge, they have been baptized by the idea of kingship and power, and in their bones, they still respect and respect the power and authority of the Son of Heaven very much.

Like Nguyen Phuc Anh, he is the lord of Quang Nam Nguyen, the grandson of the martial king Nguyen Phuc Kuo.

This identity and prestige enabled him to quickly gain the hearts of the people.

This is fundamentally different from those small countries in the South Seas where the sense of kingship is weak.

As a foreign country, the Ming Dynasty really sent troops. The result will definitely be the whole of Vietnam. But in the hearts of the people, the Ming Dynasty is congenitally insufficient. At that time, if there is rebellion and rebellion here, and there is an uprising, it will only make the Ming Dynasty follow the old path of the later generations of the United States and Emperors, and drag them to death in the quagmire of the Vietnam War.

And the timing is not right!

Britain and Spain, the tiger is watching aside. If Da Ming intervened directly, they would definitely not sit idly by. Like now, they are actively in contact with the Xishan Dynasty in the north. It's just that the price of their support is too high, so there has been no progress.

But if you don't want Vietnam, right? That Ming Dynasty must not send troops. After all, fighting a war is about killing people! If Daming doesn't make a move, he will get the greatest benefits.

Because the only reason why Vietnam can let the Ming send troops is its territory.

Thinking about it this way, the matter of Vietnam seems to be very inappropriate.

After talking about their concerns, Liu Weiguo and Zhang Yang were also speechless.

They have thought so much, but they have not taken into account the basic point of saying that the people's will is big and small.

In fact, if the situation in Nanyang was not so tense, Daming's energy was enough. It is true that there is no need to consider the will of the people.

Because the Ming Dynasty used the policy of immigration to move all the people of Vietnam and South Vietnam. If you don't leave, you can only be 'Diao Min'. Daming's musket will make them understand the fate of being a Diao Min!

Clean Vietnam, it is easy to put into the arms of the Ming Dynasty.

But reality tells them that there are not so many ifs.

The current situation is extremely complex, and without the stable external conditions and sufficient internal resources, it is not enough to support the great migration of Vietnamese people.

So Liu Weiguo and Zhang Xiao were a little depressed. These two war leaders have belligerent blood in their bones. After seeing the contents of the Anglo-Spanish contract, the belligerent fire in their hearts was instantly ignited.

Therefore, before coming, I made all the preparations, just to convince Nanfeng.

It's a pity that Nanfeng has been honed for several years and has a more long-term vision. Things to consider, too, are more comprehensive. Maybe five years ago, Nanfeng would still be willing to move or even act. Now, there is only the deep, long-term and long-term thinking after the heartbeat.

At this time, Liao Qing, who had been listening, suddenly spoke.

"In fact, we can learn from Cao Cao's practice in the Eastern Han Dynasty..."

Zhang Yang was inspired, and instantly blurted out: "'Coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes'!" ”。

As long as you have studied history a little, you will know that in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao controlled Liu Xie, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and acted as the marcher, the political great, and the power. Although the name of the Han Dynasty is still there, in essence, the power has fallen and existed in name only.

There are many such historical examples in all dynasties in China.

Even in Vietnam, it happens from time to time. For example, the Later Lê Dynasty was hollowed out by the Zheng and Ruan clans respectively, forming two political powers in the north and south. In another half a century, Vietnam will be controlled by the French again.

But like Cao Cao, they all kept the name of the Son of Heaven, gathered people's hearts, and gave orders.
