The Chinese emperor paid for the Champa state and sent troops to destroy the Annam Zheng clan, and the Nguyen regime was caught in the middle and trembled.

Once the war starts, it is not as simple as a flanking attack from the north and the south, and it can also transport troops from the sea and directly give the Ruan clan a three-sided flower!

Nguyen Phuc Binh, who had just won a big victory and succeeded to the throne, was at the highest moment of his life. The Ruan lord and his ministers were full of ambition, and even called for the Northern Expedition, but what they were waiting for was the news of the fall of the Zheng clan.

Zhao Han's two holy decrees were not only for King Annan to see, but to tell the world and spread to all directions!

Ruan Fuwei also got two hand-copied edicts, and after reading them, he was cold. They have always obeyed Emperor Li as the monarch, and their legal system also comes from the king, and they accuse the Zheng family of holding the monarch hostage every year, saying that sooner or later they will lead troops north to the side of the Qing monarch.

But now, Annan is gone, and Ruan's situation is a little embarrassing.

He had only three options:

First, the slogan of recovering the country was raised and the legal system of Annam was inherited.

Second, he immediately surrendered his land and returned to the Chinese emperor.

Third, the country should be formally established and self-reliant.

Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, one must be chosen, so that the people's hearts can be appeased, otherwise Nguyen's rule lacks rationality.

On the Zheng side, at least there is a court.

On the Nguyen side, there was not even a imperial court, and the official title was obviously wartime.

Local prefectures and counties are all called battalions, such as Hue battalion and Quang Nam battalion, and those who don't know think they are the army.

The central body is called the Neizheng Battalion.

There are three divisions and yamen in the Neizheng camp, namely the Shecha Division (copywriting and justice), the Ministers Division (finance, local military salaries), and the Lingshi Division (sacrifices, Yulu and central military salaries).

With the continuous expansion of the territory, in the past few years, four pillars have been added, namely, the inner left, the outer left, the inner right, and the outer right, to assist in the central affairs in all directions.

Although it seems that the government institutions of the Nguyen clan are very rough, the vitality of the government and the opposition is far better than that of the Trung side.

Within the jurisdiction of the Zheng family, the royal family, the clan, and the army ...... Crazy exploitation of the people, local gentry and concealment of the population, rampant corruption, financial coercion,

What I got was the script of the late Ming Dynasty.

Within the territory of the Ruan clan, they continued to expand their territory, killing and expelling the people of the city, and relocating the Yue and Han people. The landlord and gentry class here,

The influence was very weak, and the land holding rate of the low-level peasants was extremely high, and what they got was the script of the Later Jin and early Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, although the Nguyen clan was narrow and had few people and was unable to take the initiative to go north, they were able to defeat the Zheng army's southward march every time. The peasants here all have land, so how can they allow foreign enemies to invade? He is very brave in battle, and to put it bluntly, he wants to keep his own property!

In a word, if the Datong army is killed, it will be met with very stubborn resistance, and the soldiers from peasant backgrounds are willing to fight hard.

Li Tai, the inner left pillar minister, said: "Your Highness, the Zheng clan will be destroyed in an instant, and the Han soldiers are really invincible. It is time to dedicate the land to the vassals, and send an envoy to Nanjing again to ask for canonization. ”

"What is the office of the request for canonization?" Ou Sheng, the minister of the Department of History, immediately asked, "The Chinese emperor destroyed the Zheng clan in the north and bought the Champa state in the south, which has formed a situation for us to be sandwiched between the north and the south. Even the province was destroyed and named Quang Nam Province. Quang Nam and Hue are my core territories, what is his intention in setting up Quang Nam Province, it is clear that he wants to annex us! ”

Nguyen Phuc Yan, the minister of the outer left pillar, said: "Is it possible to go to war with China? We even had difficulties in the Northern Expedition to the Zheng clan, how could we withstand the wolf-like Han soldiers! “

A bunch of officials were arguing there, and they couldn't come up with useful statutes at all.

Nguyen Lord Nguyen Phuc said: "It is okay to be a minister, but it is impossible to sacrifice land." If this king sacrifices his land, I am afraid that the Chinese emperor will really have to send officials over, and these officials will be very troublesome at that time. You can't kill it, you can't use it, and sooner or later something big will happen. “

Ryazan, the minister of the Ministry of Ministers, proposed: "The territory under our jurisdiction is all the territory of Gulinyi. Now that the country of Annam is destroyed, His Royal Highness can establish a country and stand on his own feet, and ascend the throne as the king of Linyi. Then, in the name of the lord of Linyi, he sent an envoy to Nanjing to ask for a seal to test the attitude of the Chinese emperor. If the Chinese emperor does not allow it, he will find another way. It would be great if the Emperor of China allowed it, and His Highness could rightfully establish the country as king. "

Ruan Fupin nodded and smiled: "This method is very good." Choose an auspicious day, and the king will build a country and stand on his own feet. The internal and external yamen should also be restructured, and local governments and counties should also be established. “

Ryazan also said: "Hetu, the powerful minister of the Zhancheng state, refused to accept the seizure of power by the Chinese officials, and conspired with the sect to raise an army, and now he has been defeated and died. More than 1,000 of his relatives and sectarians have defected to our country, and they are at the border at the moment. “

Ruan Phuc said: "The people of foreign and pagan religions will not be taken in, and all of them will be expelled, and they can also be used to make friends with China!" “

Nguyen Phuc Pinh, for his part, believes in Confucianism and Buddhism, and has no mercy on the environmental protection religion of Champa.

In the past few decades, whenever new territories are expanded, there will be mass massacres and expulsions, and the policy of "leaving the land but not the people" has been implemented. After the Zhan people were driven out and killed, the vacated land was just distributed to the Yue and Han people, which could also alleviate the contradiction between people and land.

As for Hetu, the occupying minister, his rebellion is somewhat hilarious.

After China bought the Champa state, it directly implemented military control in Bintong Longcheng, and temporarily recruited Han merchants to serve as port tax collectors. This was tantamount to depriving Hetu of his financial rights, so this person instigated the sect to make trouble, burned and looted in Bintong Dragon City, and was suppressed by the 50 Datong Army for a morning.

Not only was Hetu exterminated, but his cronies were also purged, and many people fled from Champa with their followers.

The methods of the Da Dong army are benevolent enough, and in history, if the Ruan clan occupies this place, eighty or ninety percent of the Cham people will be finished. Either they were slaughtered or expelled, and all the vacated land was left to the Han people to cultivate—these Han people were all remnants of the Ming Dynasty, who fled across the sea against the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Later, the Nguyen occupation of the Mekong Delta also led to the resettlement of Han Chinese in large numbers.

The Mekong Delta, from a less suitable area for farming, has developed into a top grain-producing area in Southeast Asia, in which the Han people have made great contributions.

Even a few couplets in that temple have a smell of anti-Qing and restoration of sight-

Shame as a northern courtier, the outline is often solemn; Rather for the southern guest, bamboo silk hanging.

Jiaxian revitalizes the old base, and Shengde long-stay temple looks new.

The first king of the Ming Dynasty, the Yue Kingdom also heard the sound of teaching; The township party clan, Asia is the same crown.

In this time and space, due to the decline of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Han people did not go to the sea in large numbers. Even if Zhao Han did not send troops to attack the Ruan clan, the Ruan clan would not have so much population to expand. At the very least, the policy of massacring and expelling the Cham who follow environmental religions and then freeing up land for Han Chinese cultivation will not work.

A month after the destruction of Annam, the Nguyen clan quickly established itself and claimed to have obtained the legal system of the kingdom of Gulim Ap. Then, wait for the rainy season to pass, and then send an envoy to Nanjing to ask for a seal.

Zhao Han was not in a hurry to destroy the Ruan clan, and first finished the land reform in the Zheng clan's territory.

Once the land reform was announced, the local gentry would inevitably rebel and take the opportunity to suppress it. It is absolutely impossible to be soft on the migration that should be migrated, and the extinction of the race.

On the contrary, it is the territory of the Nguyen family, because there is not much contradiction between man and land, there is no need for large-scale land reform at all. An option could be a policy of détente, in which the excess land was bought at half price from the landlords and then distributed to the peasants with less land.

The trading post set up by the Dutch on Zheng's territory is second only to Nagasaki in Japan, and far more important than Tainan.

The Datong army occupied this place, and although it did not confiscate Dutch property, it was certainly impossible to do business in the future. The purchase channels must have been controlled by Chinese merchants, and the Dutch trading post in Quang Nam province was abolished.

At the risk of being blown over by a typhoon, the Dutch merchant ship rushed to Batavia to report the news.

Governor Vanderlin jumped up in shock: "What? China sent troops to annex Vietnam? “

The commander of the trade fleet said: "Yes, China sent tens of thousands of troops, and it only took a little more than a month for Vietnam to perish without resistance." ”

Vanderlin was silent, he felt that he, the governor, was probably about to come to an end.

Due to the dumping of Chinese maritime merchants at low prices, not only did many Han merchants die, but also caused damage to Dutch trade in Japan. The Japanese merchants of Sandu, as well as the Japanese feudal lords who engaged in smuggling, were more willing to take goods from Chinese merchants at low prices.

Japan's trade has shrunk, Vietnam's trade is now directly finished, and the Dutch East India Company's profits this year may fall off a cliff.

Profits plummeted, and the Governor was bound to be impeached by the shareholders.

Vanderlin thought that he could only hold a meeting, and only three members of the company were in attendance, and the others were all representatives of the council, and the regular members of the council were still in other colonies.

"The Vietnamese trading post was withdrawn, and it was said that it was revoked last year, and profits have been declining anyway."

"If we remove the Vietnamese trading post, we will be able to do business in Japan from now on. Japan's trade volume is also shrinking, and profits are falling sharply, and shareholders will be held accountable for this. "

"There is only a stage sea route, which prohibits Chinese businessmen from doing business on the island of Java. Then we sent troops to fight the Chinese and set a Chinese coastal port as the only trading location. In this way, the profits of the past can be restored. ”

"The naval war may be won, but are you sure you are not joking, you want to fight a land war with China? How many land forces can we send? A thousand or two thousand? China annexed Vietnam, but sent tens of thousands of troops! Chinese soldiers, not indigenous to the island of Java. They have armor, they have cannons and muskets, and if the army goes, they will be sent to death! “

"If you can't solve the problem by force, then you just wait to be fired by the company."

"Even if we are fired, will the next employee be able to recover profits? Explain the situation clearly to the headquarters, and let the gentlemen there think slowly. ”

"Colleagues, I think we need to adapt to the new trading environment, and we have to adapt to it at headquarters. What we are facing now is a powerful founding monarch and a China that is constantly expanding abroad. This behemoth is terrifying, and it must not anger them. ”

"I agree. This was no longer a matter for the East India Company, but for the Dutch Republic. The republic should send an official diplomatic corps,

Go to Nanjing for a diplomatic visit, not for the company to send employees to engage in diplomacy. ”

"There is another way, disguise yourself as pirates and plunder all the Chinese merchant ships you can meet. Forcing Chinese merchants not to dare to trade at sea, and then we took the opportunity to take the initiative in trade. “

"But our main profit is in Batavia, importing goods from Chinese merchants back to Europe. Once the Chinese merchant ships were plundered, the Chinese goods in Batavia would inevitably be drastically reduced, and the company's profits would be cut in half. “

"Chinese businessmen didn't dare to come, so we took the initiative to go to China to buy goods. The goods of the merchants in the Chinese mainland cannot be sold, and they will definitely sell them to us at a low price. “

"But wouldn't the robbery of Chinese merchant ships disguised as pirates anger the Chinese emperor and order a ban on the sale of goods to companies? Even, is it to provoke war? ”

"With the current strength of the Chinese Navy, we do not have to be afraid of naval battles at all. Rest assured, it is not only us whose interests are hurt, but also those Chinese mainland merchants who are eager to ship, as well as suppliers along China's coast. They are definitely willing to smuggle in order to make money, and we will not face the problem of shortage of supply. ”

"Gentlemen, this approach is too radical, and in the event of a problem, the company could suffer a heavy blow in the Far East. Who can afford to take responsibility? Also, the Chinese navy may be defeated, but the Chinese emperor, angered, will definitely crack down on smuggling, and we may really not be able to buy goods. ”

"Don't forget, the company's current strategy is to seize Portugal's trading ports in Arabia. We have already had a stalemate with Portugal, Britain, Persia, and the Ottomans, so in this case, do we want to provoke China again? “

This last sentence made all parliamentarians shut up.

The Netherlands is making enemies all over the world, and military spending is rising year by year, and the enemy is fighting more and more.

At this point in time, if it really angers the Chinese emperor. China directly joined forces with Britain, and even used its interests to win over Spain, and the Dutch East India Company was estimated to suffer a catastrophe.

A group of people discussed for a long time, and the final result was to accept the reality and ask the Dutch Republic to send an official envoy to Nanjing.

Zhao Han really didn't expect that he would send troops to recover Vietnam, and he would actually make the Dutch anxious.
