Although Hue was garrisoned by the Ming Dynasty, it was difficult for the Vietnamese authorities to accept. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info But compared with the situation where Thang Long City was surrounded by the Ming Dynasty on all sides, Hue obviously had a lot less constraints.

Therefore, in comparison, the relocation of Hue is obviously more in line with the interests of the Vietnamese government.

As a result, under such exchange conditions, the Vietnamese government was much less resistant to the cession of North Vietnam. It's just that in terms of specific details, Vietnam and Daming still have a lot of differences. Among them, there are two points of greatest disagreement.

The first is the issue of the territorial ownership of Thanh Hoa City and the Thanh Hoa Zhu River and Ma River.

According to the meaning of the Ming Dynasty, the north of Vietnam should take the Zhu River as the dividing line, and the city of Thanh Hoa, which is at the mouth of the river, is also within the scope of the cession. The basis is that the Zhu River is short and the boundaries are clear.

Of course, this is pure nonsense! Because the length of the river is not the basis for demarcating the boundary. As for the clear boundaries, there is no difference between Ma Jiang and Zhu Jiang.

So in the final analysis, it is still the Ming who wants to expand the territory.

The Vietnamese official, the first reaction, naturally refused. According to their view, the North of Vietnam should be divided by the Ma River. Hue City, located at the mouth of the Zhu River, was not within the scope of the cession.

And the official basis of Vietnam is very strong!

When the Ming Dynasty issued a ban on transgression, it was based on the Ma River. Therefore, south of the Majiang River, there are still many Yue people who have settled. The Vietnamese government has also been effectively managing the local area. Now that it is ceded, it is natural to take the Ma River as the dividing line.

But the negotiations are based on national strength! Vietnam was only a vassal and puppet of the Ming Dynasty, and no matter how good the reason was, it could not convince the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Nanfeng directly asked the Ming army to enter Qinghua City and block the Zhujiang line.

After showing such a resolute attitude, the Vietnamese authorities can only acquiesce to the facts.

As a result, the cession agreement was implemented in full accordance with the will of the Ming Dynasty.

The second is the controversy over the strength of the Ming army in Hue. The Ming Dynasty believed that the capital of Hue was of great significance, so the Ming army stationed there should be 5,000 people. At the same time, the Vietnamese local city defense army recruited also listened to the command of the Ming army.

Although the reason of the Ming was that the Vietnamese commanders were tactically backward. But in essence, it was about controlling Vietnam.

But the official Vietnamese representatives, loyal to the Nguyen dynasty, reduced the Ming army to two thousand men, citing the fact that the treasury was empty and could not afford to provide for it. Although the conditions for raising soldiers in the Ming Dynasty are indeed too good. But with 5,000 people, the Vietnamese government can still afford to raise them.

So this refusal is just an excuse.

In addition, the command of the local city defense force was also politely rejected by the Vietnamese authorities on the grounds of poor communication. Although there is indeed a difference between Vietnamese and Da Ming, the Ming troops stationed in Vietnam still know Vietnamese to a greater or lesser extent. And under the assimilation policy of the Ming Dynasty, the sinicization within the Yue people has also intensified.

The simple communication between the Yue and the Ming people was still not hindered.

This excuse is relatively pale and weak.

However, it was mainly the former ministers of the Nguyen Dynasty headed by Nguyen Van Thanh and Pham Van Den who made this decision. They have always used the name of Kuang Fu Da Viet to gather those courtiers who were loyal to the Nguyen Dynasty. Regardless of whether they are really loyal to the monarch and patriotic, or deliberately win the hearts of the people, this gesture of refusal must be made.

Otherwise, the banner of 'Kuang Fu Da Yue' will not be easy to use.

In this regard, Da Ming has no psychological understanding. Because the will of the Ming Dynasty will not change. Therefore, after the 5,000 Ming troops were stationed in Hue ahead of schedule and a 20,000-strong city defense army was recruited on the spot, the opposition of the Vietnamese government died down.

In these matters, Chen Wenji and Ruan Wenming, who took refuge in Da Ming, did not seem to play a role for Da Ming from beginning to end. But in fact, this is deliberately done by Da Ming. After all, Chen Wenji and Ruan Wenming do not belong to the system of the Ruan Dynasty. Therefore, their position in the Vietnamese court is actually quite embarrassing.

Even if they win over a group of officials who are interested in the Ming Dynasty, their strength is really limited. Let them stand up and speak for the Ming Dynasty, and they will also be drowned in the stars with spittle by those officials who hold high the banner of righteousness and are loyal to the Ruan Dynasty.

Coupled with the cession of the country, it sounds like selling the country. So it sounds like it affects reputation. In addition, when the Yue people broke away from the territory of the Central Plains Dynasty several times, they gradually cultivated an independent national consciousness. Although confined to the educated class of scholars and scholars, they were the basis for maintaining the rule of the Nguyen Dynasty.

And the Vietnamese court is full of these scholars.

Therefore, if Chen Wenji and Ruan Wenming support each other, their status in the Ruan Dynasty will be even more embarrassing and lonely.

In this way, it is harmful to Daming!

After all, no matter how much the Vietnamese officials oppose it, the result will not change.

And the Vietnamese official, if there is only one voice. Many people who have different intentions for the Ming Dynasty will secretly lie dormant. Although the strength of the Intelligence Division, it is also very strong. But people's hearts are the most difficult to grasp. Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be fish in the net.

Therefore, Da Ming wanted to use a bait to let them surface on their own initiative. When the time comes, you can wipe them out without much effort.

Nguyen Van Thanh and Pham Van Den are the best bait.

Nanfeng didn't let Liao Qing do anything to them, so he had such thoughts.

After settling these divisions, the Ming and Vietnam, at great speed, signed a cession agreement. The town of Cochin has also become the new name of North Vietnam. Thang Long City became the seat of Jiaozhi Town.

You must know that the word 'Jiaozhi' first originated from the Jiaozhi County set up by Qin Shi Huang. Later, in 111 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty destroyed the Nanyue Kingdom, and in northern Vietnam, he branched the three counties of Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen, and Rinan.

The restoration of its ancient name by the Ming Dynasty is obviously of great significance.

However, Vietnamese officials are basking in the joy of moving the capital. For the establishment of the town of 'Cochin', there is less due attention.

All kinds of aftermath matters are also carried out simultaneously.

Due to the north of the Ma River, it was occupied and led by the Ming Dynasty long ago. So the cession agreement, it doesn't have much impact here. In addition to the administrative divisions, there are some adjustments. Everything else is the same as before the cession.

The slightest trouble is the Yue people who live between Majiang and Zhujiang. Although it has been war-torn for a long time, more than 40,000 people still live here. And because it is close to the control area of the Ming Dynasty, all kinds of trade smuggling are very rampant. This led to the development of the local economy and prompted many poor farmers who had lost their land to move in.

If they were to be driven all out of the areas under the control of the Vietnamese government, it would probably be detrimental to the peace and stability of the area. After all, with Vietnam's official resettlement capabilities, the Vietnamese people who moved south are likely to be left to fend for themselves.

In that case, it is likely to provoke the hatred of the Yue people towards the Ming on a large scale.

Even the Ming Dynasty was not afraid of these people who wanted to cause chaos, but if they developed into uprisings, it would be easy for them to influence the rule of the Vietnamese government. This is very unfavorable to the Ming Dynasty's control of Vietnam. Especially when the current Ming Dynasty has limited energy, it is even more necessary for Vietnam to maintain stability.
