"Back to the prince, there are many toasts in Yunnan, and there are not a few strong people. The original governors of the Yuan Dynasty should not be underestimated, and those Xuanfu envoys and Xuanfu envoys were even more deep-rooted and responded to every call. Feng Cheng replied:

"The strongest of them, such as the original Dali Duan clan, Kunming Yang Tho, and Dongchuan An clan, have all been leveled, and only the Luchuan Si clan is still showing off their power because of its remote location - they are the ones who captured Yongchang City."

"Luchuan Si's ......" Zhu Zhen always felt that this name was a little familiar, so he asked: "How big is their territory?" How many natives are there? How many troops can be mobilized, how many toasts can be driven, and what is the combat effectiveness? ”

"This ......" Feng Cheng was dumbfounded when asked, and only said after a while: "We are investigating, and we will have a result soon." ”

"Wang Ye Rong Bing," Xie Xiong hurriedly relieved him, "Yunnan is too big, and our attention was all on the Sanjiang before, and we lacked understanding of the places outside the Sanjiang. It was only after Yongchang's accident that he began to pay attention to the situation of Luchuan Si. ”

Zhu Zhen nodded, this is true, Yunnan in this era is indeed too big, there are two big in later generations. With such a large territory and a southwestern border, it is definitely not possible to grasp it with a beard and eyebrows, and it is bound to be divided into priorities.

According to the actual situation, Boss Zhu formulated for them the policy of 'the land outside the three rivers should not flow, and the three rivers should flow but not the soil', which is roughly bounded by the Nu River, the Lancang River, and the Yuan River. For the areas within the Sanjiang, including Dali, Yunnan, Guangnan, Qujing, and other areas within the border, the direct jurisdiction is carried out by liuguan, and the 'extreme border lands' and 'outer border administrative regions' outside the Sanjiang River are still basically continued the Yuan Dynasty's policy of 'governing the native people with local officials'.

Therefore, it is natural for Yunnan Wenwu to focus their attention on the Sanjiang area. Of course, for the areas outside the Sanjiang, it cannot be completely left alone, even if the local officials are used to govern the local people, they must be loyal to the imperial court and abide by the law.

In order to let the local officials perceive the existence of the imperial court, when the Dali class was pacified, Fu Youde sent the commander Wang Zhen to lead 2,000 soldiers and civilians and thousands of attached Turkish troops to cross the Lancang River, build a city in Yongchang, and prepare a garrison.

As a result, before the city was built, it was beaten with a stick.

Only then did Feng Cheng and the others notice the existence of Luchuan Si and began to investigate this extremely cruel toast.

~~

In the next few days, a steady stream of information about Luchuan Si's family was placed on Zhu Zhen's big case. This behemoth, hidden in the jungle, finally revealed its original form......

After the Mongols conquered Dali, after seven years of hard fighting, they conquered Mengpeng, the Dai regime in southwestern Yunnan, and set up the Golden Tooth Xuanfu Division in Yongchang, under the jurisdiction of Luchuan, Pingmian, Zhenxi, Mangshi, Rouyuan, Zhenkang six roads.

In the later period of the Yuan Dynasty, the national strength declined, and the control of the border ethnic minorities was sharply reduced, and the governor of the Luchuan Road, Si Khanfa, took the opportunity to break away from the Yuan Dynasty's Golden Tooth Xuanfu Division, proclaimed himself king in Mengmao, established the so-called 'Luchuan Kingdom', and built a new capital.

Zhu Zhen compared the map and found that Mengmao was later Ruili......

Nasi Khanfa is indeed a generation of heroes, and then he took advantage of the dissatisfaction of the Dai tribes with the Mongols to send envoys to form an alliance with the kings of the land. If you dare not come, you will immediately send troops to attack and kill them, and directly annex the territory!

The Tusi of the Dai people of various tribes have expressed their support for the Sihan Law, and even the descendants of the King of Mengpeng have also expressed their submission, and the strength of the Luchuan regime has increased greatly.

Later, Si Khanfa led an army of 40,000 to the east, known as 400,000, all the way to Tengchong, Yongchang, and Mengzhi, and then crossed the Lancang River with the Yuan Dynasty......

"The following year, Si Khanfa returned to the south and conquered Jingmai, Jingxian, Jingdong, Mengxi, Lamen, Laguang and other places...... Feng Cheng did his homework this time, and while reporting the report, he planted a flag on the sand table, so as not to be confused by those unfamiliar place names.

"Good guy, it's all going to Chiang Mai." Zhu Zhen can roughly tell that Jingmai is the later Chiang Mai of Thailand; Jingdong was the capital of the Shan State of Myanmar later, and there was really nothing else to do...... In short, looking at the location of the flag, it includes most of Myanmar and northern Thailand.

"After that, Sihanfa raised a total of 90,000 soldiers and auxiliaries, known as 900,000, and carried out a westward expedition, all the way to conquer the kingdom of Ahong." Feng Cheng continued.

"It seems that everyone likes to brag about the strength of the army, regardless of ethnicity." Zhu Zhen couldn't help laughing.

But when Feng Cheng planted the flag, he couldn't laugh.

Because this kingdom of Akhon is the state of Assam in eastern India......

"Where the hell is this?" Zhu Zhen rubbed his head, never expecting that there was such a powerful regime hidden under his nose. "The Yuan Dynasty can tolerate it, this Sihan method is so bad?"

During the period of Emperor Yuan Shun, the Yuan army had a large-scale conquest of the Luchuan regime, and as a result, Si Khanfa defeated the Yuan army in the Luchuan River Valley, and then went to Santai Mountain to fight again, and also won a big victory. The Luchuan army took advantage of the victory to pursue and fought all the way to Dali. ”

"The Yuan Dynasty lost its troops and lost its territory, and was unable to fight again, so it had to send envoys to declare peace and give rewards. Si Khan Fa took into account the emptiness of the treasury, so in the fifteenth year of Zhizheng, that is, the first year of the dragon and phoenix, sent his son Mangsan to Dadu to pay tribute to ask for peace, and the Yuan Dynasty set up the Luchuan Ping-Burma Propaganda Department in its place, and canonized Si Khanfa as a hereditary consolation envoy. In fact, the rule of the Sihan Fa to the west of the Lancang River was recognized. ”

"In the next twenty or thirty years, the two sides ruled across the river, but they were also peaceful, the Yuan Dynasty was busy dying, and the law of Si Khan was busy expanding its territory to the south." Feng Cheng pointed to the large area painted green on the sand table and said:

"Today, the Luchuan regime's sphere of influence extends from Yongchang Dali in the north, to Siam in the south, to Tianzhu in the west, and to Laos in the east, which can be called a hegemon in Tiannan."

"Indeed." Zhu Zhen nodded in agreement and said excitedly: "Only an opponent like Si Khanfa is strong enough." ”

"The prince is right, but Sihanfa is dead." Feng Cheng said softly.

"Dead? When did you die? Zhu Zhen was a little disappointed.

"The second year of Hongwu." Feng Cheng replied: "It's been more than ten years since I died......"

"How did you die?"

"He who died of old age, Nasi Khan Fa still lived a long life, and lived to be seventy-four or five years old." Feng Cheng was also convinced: "His life is worth it." ”

"That's it, no wonder it's ......" Zhu Zhen sighed and said.

It is no wonder that the Luchuan regime did not take advantage of the troubled times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty to stretch out its hand across the Lancang River, it turned out to be just in time for the old king to die of illness and the new king to succeed to the throne.

"Then what is the situation in this Luchuan country now?" Zhu Zhen asked again.

"After the death of Sihanfa, his sons fought and finally his second son, Silunfa, succeeded to the throne." Feng Cheng replied:

"This Si Lunfa is also a generation of heroes, he led his troops to fight in the east and west from a young age, made great achievements, and won in the cruel infighting. Over the years, he has thoroughly completed internal integration and carried out drastic reforms to the land left behind by his father. ”
