Chapter 458: The flames of war are temporarily extinguished
Xia Bing coldly thanked him a few words, which can be regarded as accepting the kindness of the Burmese representative. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt's just that this attitude is not salty and indifferent, but it is embarrassing for the Myanmar representatives. At the same time, the fear of Xia Bing deepened a little. Because compared with Zuo Peng, Xia Bing is an iceberg that will not melt for thousands of years. Whatever is as false as a snake, all ineffective. Those cold eyes also seemed to penetrate all vanity. Let all his pretenses be in vain.
This is Xia Bing's negotiation style, there are not many twists and turns, and he goes straight to the original intention. Of course, this is superficial. The necessary negotiation tactics still need to be used.
For example, now, after Xia Bing watched the Burmese representative lower his head, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he said loudly: "Although Siam has the possibility of relapsing to its old ways, Da Ming has felt their desire to pursue peace. So when you say that, it's better to come up with hard evidence. ”。 When he spoke, his short ear-length hair was accompanied by shiny studs, revealing an indescribable ability and confidence.
On the bright side, these words sound ordinary and flawless. But secretly, there is a lot of meaning in this statement. Therefore, the Burmese representative only thought about it for a moment and understood the bend in it. So that in his heart, he secretly scolded the shamelessness of the Ming Dynasty. Because Da Ming said that he felt Siam's heart, it was nothing more than Siam promising a lot of benefits. Otherwise, how could the Ming Dynasty, who is heavy on profit, be persuaded by Siam's mouth.
Now Daming has asked Myanmar to come up with conclusive evidence, which is nothing more than paying a certain price, which makes Daming tempted. Otherwise, it is difficult to shake the impression of Daming on Siam.
But Myanmar is now poor and white! If you want money, you don't have money, you want people. If you don't lose the battle, you won't be able to give it up. Therefore, after thinking about it, the Burmese representatives did not have anything to do. He swallowed his saliva and explained: "The kingdom should know that only without Siam can the Indochina Peninsula usher in real peace. So Director Xia, don't be blinded by Siam's villain's heart. ”。
Shaking his head, Xia Bing said with some regret: "War has always killed a thousand enemies and lost eight hundred. If the war continues, then in the future, the British enemy will expand eastward, and the Ming Dynasty, Siam, Burma and other countries may be difficult to stop.
In order to resist the common enemy, we believe that peace on the peninsula is very necessary.
Moreover, our Ming is not short-sighted, women's benevolent people, what Siam thinks, what consequences will be caused, Daming also has understanding, guarded. ”。
Although Britain was driven out of the South Seas, India still retained a large number of colonies. Given enough time, Britain will still recover. Da Ming took it out as an excuse, and it also made some sense.
However, the Burmese representatives were somewhat unimpressed. Because British rule in India was not stable. Despite the approval of the Mughal Empire, the Mughal royal family has been useless since the death of the sixth emperor, Aurangzeb.
As a result, the power was sidelined, and the various states that submitted to the empire listened to the tune one after another, and they began to compete with each other. The decrees of the dynasty could only be passed around Delhi.
Among them, the Maratha Alliance is the largest separatist force in India. Not only does it control half of India's territory, but it is also a land of good health and fertile soil. If it weren't for the complexity and lack of cohesion within the alliance, it would have been possible to overthrow the Mughal dynasty and establish the Maratha state.
Several other invasions of powerful enemies continued to damage the majesty of the Mughal Empire. First, in 1739, Nadir Shah, a Persian from the northwestern Iranian plateau, invaded the Mughal Empire with his army. At that time, the Indian defenders behaved very weakly. So that Nadir Shah captured and sacked Delhi very smoothly.
In 1756, the Afghan Durrani dynasty, founded by Ahmad Shah Durrani, followed the Persian Sassanid dynasty, once again captured the Mughal capital of Delhi. Plundering and looting a fortune of up to 120 million rupees from Delhi.
The Mughal emperor of Delhi also became the puppet of the Persians, Afghans, and Marat feudal princes who invaded India in 1740 and 1761. The huge Mughal dynasty also officially existed in name only.
Britain deliberately sow discord between the two sides by taking advantage of the fact that the states were feudal, built and divided, and the entire Indian subcontinent was incompatible, with 'Indians fighting Indians'. This nest is even more fierce than the long-standing infighting between China and China.
In this way, the British deepened their rule over India by combining vertical and horizontal techniques. The cost is pitifully small.
But the meat has to be eaten bite! If Britain wanted to annex India, it had to have enough time to arrange, arrange, and digest it. But God did not fulfill people's wishes, and the intervention of the Ming Dynasty broke the British pride in India.
The originally loose Maratha Union and the precarious state of Mysore were also revitalized by the support of the Ming Dynasty. Firmly, curbed further British control over India.
Later, there was the Battle of the South Seas between Ming and Ying, the great flu in Europe, and the British rule in India, which was greatly weakened. At this time, it would be a big joke to talk about guarding against the invasion of Britain and the enemy.
And everyone can see it! As long as the Ming Dynasty is willing, the British power in India will definitely be uprooted by the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, the Burmese representatives only regarded this as an excuse for the Ming Dynasty. secretly gritted his teeth and threw out the conditions that made Da Ming tempted. After all, his mission in Johor Bahru was not to negotiate peace with Siam, but to sabotage peace talks with all parties.
But in this, we must take into account the attitude of Da Ming.
Because this peace talks were originally held under the appeal of the Ming Dynasty. So as long as Da Ming does not agree, then the peace talks will end without a problem. But judging from the temptation just now, it is difficult to change the position of the Ming Dynasty without paying a certain price.
Let's use two conditions as a touchstone to see how Ming reacts.
The first is to recognize the Ming Dynasty's dominion over the south of Coconut City, that is, the southern part of Tanah Sarin. The other is to allow the Ming Dynasty to set up a migrant reception point on the Qing-Myanmar border. Compared with the previous condition of recognizing the ownership of land, the latter set up a resettlement reception point, which made Daming more excited.
Because Burma and Yunnan Province of the Qing Dynasty have a long land border. And the mountains are high and the valleys are deep, and there are many unknown land passages. In later generations, no matter how tightly controlled this place was by the army, there were many people who smuggled and escaped from here. Some poisons and substances also enter the inner land from here.
Therefore, once Daming sets up an immigration reception point here, it can greatly relieve the pressure on the Vietnamese immigration reception point. In addition, it can also expand the source of migration and reduce the travel of immigrants.
Da Ming had this idea before! It's just that Myanmar was very vigilant at the time. In addition, from the geographical point of view, Myanmar's inland is deep and inconvenient. The land of the junction is full of toast, and the fish and dragons are mixed. For the sake of the safety of immigrants and immigration reception points, the Daming high-level still gave up this plan.
Now that Myanmar has brought it up by itself, it really surprised Xia Bing.
