I saw Nanfeng wearing a decent Han costume and court clothes, carrying Wang Yanran, to lay wreaths at the Martyrs' Monument and the Martyrs' Monument respectively. The www.biquge.info Ming Dynasty they represent is official, and it reflects the memory of the Ming Dynasty for the sacrificed soldiers and the Han compatriots who were killed.

Many onlookers listened to the heavy classical music, looked at Nanfeng's solemn expressions, and acted respectfully. They are all deeply infected, revealing a sense of heaviness that is indescribable and inexplicable.

Some local newspaper reporters in Nanyang used their cameras to record this solemn scene. The next day's newspaper also published a critical article on the matter. Warning future generations not to forget. It is also to cultivate the collective sense of honor and disgrace of the Han nation.

After working like this for a few days, Nanfeng took Wang Yanran with him and hurriedly returned to Xinshan. Because of the battle of Siam-Burma, under the mediation of the Ming Dynasty, the smoke will finally be extinguished, and the peace will be stopped.

The first is the retreat of Siam. But conditionally!

Burma was to cede territory west of the Birao Mountains and south of Coconut City. This area is located on the Malay Peninsula and later became the Tanintharyi province of Myanmar, also known as Tannar Sarin district. and compensate a certain amount of Chinese dollars as compensation.

Myanmar does not want to accept such conditions. But Siam, Assam, Manipur and the various Tusi were swift. In just over a month, they conquered the city of Shwe Po north of Ava City, and Bin Oo Lun, west of the Shan State Plateau and east of Ava City.

So that one north and one east, the two gates were lost one after another. Siam and the anti-Burmese forces led 800,000 allied troops to gather outside the city of Ava.

This grim situation has forced Myanmar to bow its head.

And this is still a condition after Siam retreated under the mediation of the Ming Dynasty. In the beginning, Siam wanted not only Burma to cede the Tanah sarin region, but also the territory east of the Salween River. and compensated 70 million Chinese dollars for the expenses of Siam's army.

At present, the countries that have good relations with the Ming Dynasty use the Chinese dollar as the basic currency of foreign trade according to the requirements of the Ming Dynasty. And the purchasing power of Daming's currency is not low, and the output power of commodities is also very strong. When trading with foreign countries, it is impossible to avoid contact with the Ming Dynasty. In particular, the Nanyang region has been deeply influenced and controlled by the Ming Dynasty.

For the sake of their own security, neither Myanmar nor Siam dared to disobey the Ming in this matter. In any case, the Ming Dynasty did not issue currency in their country, and it did not hinder their basic interests. What's more, the settlement with Chinese dollars also facilitates trade exchanges, so why bother to anger Daming for this?

So in terms of compensation, Siam uses Huayuan.

For such a request, not only Myanmar does not agree, but also Daming does not agree. After all, the Salween River is a natural risk. If the Siam-Burma border is pushed here, the military disputes between the two countries on the border are likely to be greatly reduced by the danger of the great river.

Not to mention that Burma will attack Siam, it will take a lot more effort. Even if Siam counterattacked Burma, it would not be easy. This border is also stable. The contradictions between the two countries will be greatly reduced. This is not in line with Daming's expectations!

Because Da Ming never thought that Myanmar and Siam could really get along. In case they unite, it will be detrimental to the status of the Ming Dynasty within the alliance.

Therefore, the Ming Dynasty put pressure on Siam to give up its territorial claims east of the Salween River. And the Tanah sarin area, compared to the east of the Salween River, has less military value. Therefore, it can be discarded.

After all, Burma was the instigator of the Siam-Burma War. Now it is a peacemaker who has not been defeated, but is equivalent to defeat. It is impossible without paying a certain price. It is also possible for Myanmar to remember the lessons and at the same time maintain a grudge against Siam.

In this way, the two countries will not be able to go together to ensure the interests of the Ming Dynasty.

Siam, because he was afraid of the strength of the Ming Dynasty, also understood the help that the Ming Dynasty brought to Siam in the Battle of Siam-Burma. So I don't dare to go too far against the meaning of the Ming Dynasty, just see it, as long as the Dana Sarin area. The indemnity was also reduced to 35 million Chinese dollars.

No matter how reluctant Burma was, it also agreed to come down under the coercion of the coalition forces and the strong pressure of the Ming Dynasty. The envoys of the two countries also signed the "Peace Treaty of Siam-Burma-Johor Bahru" on January 8, 1796, in Johor Bahru, Daming. In an official capacity, to end the war.

Along with it, there is also the "Three Kingdoms of Ming-Siamese-Burma Johor Bahru Covenant". This was requested by the Ming Dynasty in order to strengthen the closeness of the alliance. And clarify the dominant position of the Ming within the alliance.

Speaking of which, the battle for Siam-Burma began in early September and ended in early January of the following year. It lasted more than four months. In the countless battles of Siam-Burma, it was not long. But it was the first time that an outside force had intervened to end the war.

Among them, more than 700,000 people were killed and wounded in Myanmar and more than 500,000 people were killed or wounded in Siam. A large part of them are civilians, not all soldiers. And there is also some moisture, some exaggerated.

According to the statistics of the war observers sent by the Ming Dynasty, the total number of dead and wounded on both sides was less than one million. But it is also staggering to be able to achieve such a scale of casualties in such a short period of time.

And that's the credit of the musket. It also made Siam and Myanmar realize the military value of muskets again. Now both sides have asked the envoys stationed in Daming to discuss arms purchases with Daming. I want to buy another batch of muskets with a large number of muskets and equip the troops on a large scale. It would be great if you could buy a method of producing muskets.

It's just that Da Ming has always been thinking about them, and it is impossible to do such stupid things that hurt him.

At this point, Burma and Siam officially restored peace and restored the old peace. However, the Burmese ambassador who signed the peace treaty was punished by Meng Yun for treason after returning to China, and his end was miserable. It is also Myanmar that has been expanding its territory since the establishment of the Gongbang Dynasty. Even at war with Siam, he did not suffer any major defeats. Not to mention the cession of territory.

Meng Yun also wanted to find a scapegoat to reassure the people.

This makes the Siam-Burma Peace Treaty, which has not yet dissipated, another grievance and soul.

After the biggest external threat is eliminated, Myanmar's next move is to be in the country. These included Shan State and the small states of Tusi, Manipur, and Assam on the border between Qing and Burma, as well as the anti-Burmese Arakan dynasty established by Kim Bin.

From easy to difficult, Myanmar first dealt with the Tusi on the border between Shan State and Qing Myanmar. They had previously rebelled, relying on the momentum of Siam. The fox is fake and the tiger is powerful, and there are not many catties in itself. The interior is even more scattered.

When Siam voluntarily withdrew its troops, they couldn't make much waves. He accepted the canonization of the Burmese court and re-submitted.

Then there is Assam, Manipur.

These two places, from ancient times to the present, have repeatedly rebelled against Burma. Especially when Burma was divided or the country was in great decline, it raised troops to invade Burma. But most of the time, it's the submission of Burma. They have also always enjoyed a great deal of autonomy in their internal affairs.

The conditions for the armistice, therefore, were to enjoy more autonomy and to demand the removal of the status of the subject state. In terms of status, it is on an equal footing with Myanmar. (To be continued.) )
