Siam also knows it!

Anyway, these small countries have been controlled by the Ming Dynasty. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info whether you admit it or not, there is no need for that. He pushed the boat along the way and took the initiative to dissolve the tributary relationship with the four sultanates, which was the icing on the cake for the Ming Dynasty.

Sometimes, it is better to be active than passive, and it is better to cede than to dominate. The Ming Dynasty has always been known as a civilized country, and it must also care about the legitimacy of this legal theory. Therefore, Siam did this, which can be regarded as giving the Ming a reasonable excuse for annexation. It is also of great benefit to the Ming-Siamese relationship.

In this way, Siam can be regarded as a great bloodletting. All of a sudden, the Malay Peninsula was given to the Ming Dynasty. Even if Da Ming has other thoughts, under this tempting cake, he can't help but change a lot of views on Siam.

And that's not all! In the peace treaty, Siam clarified for the first time that it had the Ming Dynasty as its suzerain, and established an official tributary relationship. You must know that although Siam was intimidated by the strength of the Ming Dynasty in the past, at the official level, it has always put itself and the status of the Ming Dynasty together.

At that time, in order to deal with the British, Daming also deliberately wooed and put down his posture. This makes Siam's official positioning of the Ming Dynasty relatively vague and confusing.

This time he was beaten violently, but Siam saw the strength of the Ming Dynasty clearly and surrendered willingly. Therefore, it is logical to officially recognize the suzerainty status of the Ming Dynasty.

As for the former suzerainty of the Qing Dynasty, it was denounced by Siam as foolish and ignorant, and disdained to be in company. In the end, it was the power of muskets and cannons that made Siam, who used to be respectful to the Qing Dynasty, dare to jump out and accuse the Qing Dynasty of being useless.

It was also this battle of Siam-Burma that made Siam truly understand what it means to be isolated. The Qing Dynasty, which promised to help Siam, has never been as if it did not exist from the beginning to the end of the war, and did not send a single soldier to fight in Burma and Vietnam.

Even a verbal warning has never been heard. silently, let Siam grit his teeth with hatred.

In the end, Siam had no choice but to resist the combined attack of the Ming Dynasty, Burma and the five eastern countries with the strength of one country. The pressure and the danger of the situation terrified Siam.

Therefore, with the psychology of 'once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope', he was extremely dissatisfied and distrustful of the Qing Dynasty. The seals, dependences, and costumes that were once canonized by the Qing Dynasty were also burned to ashes by Siam in front of the public. The identity of this suzerainty has also been discarded by Siam into the dustbin of history.

At that moment, Siam took the initiative to dissolve the tributary relationship with the Qing State, and deliberately criticized it. It can be regarded as showing his attitude of fully falling towards the Ming Dynasty.

In this regard, Daming naturally accepted it gladly. Siam's tributary relationship with the Ming Dynasty was also formalized.

The former sultanates of Pahang and Kedah were merged with Nakhon Thammarat and Songkhla south of the Kra Isthmus to form Nam Ma Town. The capital is located in Songkhla. As a small city by the sea, Songkhla's maritime trade was very developed very early on. Although it was bombarded by the Ming Dynasty last time, now, the reconstruction work has been included in the plan.

It is estimated that it will not be long before the port here will be repaired. The warships of the Ming Dynasty will also use it as one of the supply points.

Otherwise, it's an indemnity. With a compensation of 50 million Chinese dollars, Siam is not less than a penny. Even though it was converted into grain, it was all sufficient.

It is also Siam that is a traditional agricultural country, with three harvests a year and a high grain yield. And because Siam is relatively stable, although it has fought countless times with the Burma War, without exception, it is confined to the border.

The vast inland plains and alluvial plains along the rivers have maintained a high level of cultivation. So in the treasury, a lot of grain is hoarded. For a while, it was used for compensation, and it was all available. Otherwise, it is really a bit stretched to let Burma and Vietnam, countries that are in turmoil and have barren land, pay compensation.

As a result, many merchant ships loaded with grain set sail from the cities of Rayong, Phetchaburi and Chonburi along the coast of Bangkok Bay. It passes through Johor Bahru, Belitung Island, Java Province, and Anxi Province and flows into Myeonggyong. In other provinces and cities, the increasingly tense food crisis has been alleviated.

That's not enough! The Ming Dynasty also used a large number of muskets, shells and other firearms to buy nearly 10,000 tons of grain at low prices from the Siamese government. As a result, Siam, which was already inflated in food prices, soared overnight. The large-scale grain buying trend also blew from Siam to neighboring countries.

Zhenla, Vientiane and other countries have also soared with food. Many poor people who are barely making ends meet are also panicking to buy food. Due to years of war, Myanmar's grain output has been declining. This grain purchase boom has also caused instability among the people in Myanmar at once.

Compared to this, Daming's situation is much better. That's why food stamps are issued! As a result, the amount of grain purchased has been firmly restricted. Therefore, no matter how much you rob it, it will not be able to trigger a large-scale wave of grain purchases.

But that's all for later! At present, Siam, Burma, Chenla and other countries have continued to rise in grain prices due to the large-scale purchase of grain by the Ming Dynasty. However, due to the deterrence of the Ming Dynasty, officials in these countries did not dare to restrict grain exports.

As a result, after the outbreak of the rush for grain, these countries regretted it.

In addition to the above two conditions, there is a third supplementary condition, which is the Zhuangthaburi lease area.

It is similar to the bottom line negotiated by the Siamese envoys before, and the leased area is thirty miles, which is governed by the Ming Dynasty. The explicit term of lease is 30 years. When the time comes, the issue of the lease period will be decided by the Ming and Siam.

Siam has the right to decide whether to renew the lease and to repossess the leased area.

Through this clause, it is clear that there is a high probability that Siam will take back the loan. Da Ming didn't know, but he still gave in.

Of course, this is not the mercy of the Ming Dynasty!

Instead, the Ming Dynasty believes that Siam's national glory may not last for 30 years. Therefore, the terms of this lease are just an expedient measure to confuse Siam.

Militarily, no troops were allowed in the Lend-Lease Zone. However, certain security police are allowed. It's just that the number of people can't exceed 1,000. muskets, not more than five hundred. All kinds of ammunition and weapons should also be negotiated with Siam before they arrive in the Lend-Lease area.

On the surface, it is to prevent criminals from stealing firearms and causing personal injury and property damage to the people in the lease. But in fact, this is nothing more than Siam's fear of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, in the army and firearms, all kinds of restrictions are given.

In this regard, Daming also accepted it calmly. Anyway, Bashu in the south and Coconut City in the west are in the hands of the Ming Dynasty. How could Siam be spared from the beacon fire if he wanted to.

So I promised first to let Siam relax its vigilance.

It's just that on warships, Siam relaxed restrictions. Warships are allowed to resupply docks and supplies in Zhuangthaburi. But this is conditional!

The Ming Dynasty wanted to deliver two new warships to Siam within three years. The money is paid in instalments and is paid with money and food at regular intervals.

As for other administrative affairs, they are all under the control of the Ming Dynasty. The appointment and dismissal of officials, criminal law and justice, are all in accordance with the rules of the Ming Dynasty. Some details are also based on the method of the Vietnamese leased area.
