The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

After finishing his visit to Annan, Yan Changwu visited Champa, Siam, Cambodia and other countries on the Indochina Peninsula one after another.

Champa is an ancient country name, located in south-central Annan. The Sanskrit name Champa Bula means a city built by the Cham people. "Xin Tang Book · Nanban Biography" was originally called Champa. In about 192 AD, the Cham nationality established a nation here, and the "Three Kingdoms" was called Linyi (Linyi). At the end of the Tang Dynasty, it was renamed Champa. The country was very prosperous in the eleventh century. In the fourteenth century, it declined due to the division of tribes. In 1471, Vietnam's post-Le dynasty captured most of the land in Champa.

Champa has an influence on Chinese history. Champa rice from Champa was promoted in the Song Dynasty. It is early-maturing, drought-tolerant, and has fine grains. , It's really precious!

In the 4th year of Zhenzong Dazhong Xiangfu (1011 AD), there was a drought in Zhejiang and Jianghuai, and Champa rice was introduced from Fujian. Soon, Kaifeng and Ruzhou of Henan also tried and introduced them. Later, many excellent rice seeds were cultivated on this basis.

China has been a country with a large population since ancient times, and the food problem has always been prominent. It can be said that Champa Rice has contributed a lot to China. This is why Yan Changwu used this as a reason to help Champa by no one opposed.

The so-called drinking water thinks about the source, eats the grain and thinks about the land!

Another advantage of Champa to China is that it gave China an excuse to attack Annan. In the Five Dynasties, Annan rose and eventually established the country. The Chinese dynasty no longer had a strong relationship with Champa, but had a common enemy. When Champa was forced by Annan, he often asked for help from the Chinese dynasty. For example, among the 20 most serious crimes listed by Ming Chengzu in the conquest of Annan, six of them were about aggression against Champa. The so-called teacher is famous and Champa is indispensable.

Of course, there is another episode about the Yuan Dynasty's attack on Champa. Although Champa rebels, he refuses to accept China.

In the conflict between Annan and Nguyen and Zheng, the Nguyen Dynasty wanted to capture the space of Champa, but was blocked by Nanhua. The South China Army signed a military agreement with Champa, and Champa became the garrison of the South China Army.

The army is not much, it is only for training and supply, but the Nguyen Dynasty dare not go south.

It can be said that Nguyen Phuc was broken in his heart. I just want to say that I bought a watch last year!

Annan Monkey's heart suffocated and the remnants of Champa welcomed the arrival of the Chinese. I knew that without the protection of the Chinese, Champa was simply a candle in the wind, depending on the mood of the Annan people.

Champa practiced Hindu religious beliefs. King Kunal Rahal presented the most enthusiastic etiquette. He respected Yan Changwu in greeting the great **** and sent the most beautiful Brahmin girl in the country to dance. , And then offered a large amount of ivory, rhino horn and spices.

Kunal Rahal feels deeply sorry to hear that Yan Changwu does not take girls.

Yan Changwu said that he was too polite and wanted to refuse. Kunal Rahal said that without the help of the two Chinas, these materials and the land in Champa would be taken by the ambitious thief. Now the land is in the hands of the Champa. Then those materials are nothing!

"Good, good!" Yan Changwu smiled happily, and said to Mr. David: "These countries sincerely yearning for China, please take care of them!"

"That's that!" Mr. David said with a smile, and his heart is actually about interests first. If you really sincerely yearn for Nanhua, the Annan people are more Chinese than the Champa people. The Champa people don’t speak Chinese, but China does. Standing on the side of Champa.

The Chinese and Champa expressed their satisfaction with the exchanges between the two countries. Looking forward to the future, Champa has signed a military agreement with Daming, and Champa has also become a place where the Daming army is stationed.

After leaving Annan, Yan Changwu arrived in Cambodia for a visit. The country’s King Padang Raja also gave Yan Changwu’s hospitality for his visit and expressed his deep gratitude to China for going to the country.

Cambodia was founded very early. After Funan, Chenla, Angkor and other periods, the Angkor dynasty from the 9th century to the 14th century was its heyday. The country was strong and the culture was developed, creating the world-famous Angkor civilization. Encountered in the struggles of careerists and sects.

Beginning in the late 1720s, there were frequent conflicts in the Cambodian royal family and repeated coups. What made the situation worse was foreign invasions.

In the end, the Kingdom of Cambodia shed a lot of blood. With the support of the Nanhua Empire, Padang Lagarde firmly secured the throne and established Buddhism as the state religion. At the same time, Cambodia completed the demarcation with the surrounding countries, and the map with the seal of the country was given away. The preservation of China means that once foreign countries invade, the two Chinas can use this map to restore the boundaries of the Kingdom of Cambodia.

The South China Army has also set up a naval base in Cambodia, and the number is similarly small. However, the Siamese and the Annan people are very annoyed, especially the Annan people. They have a wolf ambition and their hearts are higher than the sky. They are now contained by the South China. The strength of Annan dared not speak.

Padang Raja knew all about their frustrations and thanked the Chinese people very much. In the same way, he let the most beautiful girls perform dances and presented a large amount of fine rice, precious ivory, Yellow wax, camphor, cardamom, purple stalk, wood, and gems are exactly the same as in Champa.

It's better to give to a friend than to a robber!

The Chinese left full of loads, bid farewell to the enthusiastic Cambodians, and arrived in Thailand for a visit.

Thailand was originally named Siam, China was named Siam in the Ming Dynasty, and then was canonized as Thailand by Yan Changwu, taking the meaning of the country, Thailand and the people. The Siamese regarded it as beautiful and agreed to change the country's name.

The Chinese are kind-hearted and give foreign countries a good name.

The Sukhothai dynasty was established in 1238 AD and began to form a more unified country. Has experienced the Sukhothai Dynasty and the Ayutthaya Dynasty successively,

In the first year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, Cheng Zu gave the King of Siam a gold and silver seal, and the King of Siam also sent an envoy to thank you.

When Zheng He went south, many Chinese stayed in Siam. In the early Ming Dynasty, China's overseas activities were very frequent. In order to promote the prestige of the country, Ming Chengzu sent Zheng He to lead the fleet to patrol seven times in the south, taking the western route. Siam is located in the sea from Vietnam to Malaysia and is a must pass. At that time, there were already Chinese merchants living in various parts of Southeast Asia.

Along with Ma Huan as Zheng He went south, UU read www.uukanshu.com and wrote the book "Yingya Siam Victory", which describes the situation in Siam:

"The country is thousands of miles away, the outer mountains are rugged, and the interior is damp. The soil is barren, and the climate is not good enough for farming, and the climate may be cold or hot. The house of the king’s residence is quite gorgeous and tidy. Open like a bamboo floor, densely placed with vines tied tightly. The upper bunk cane bamboo mats, the rest of the bamboo rests on it.

Dressed as a king, the head is wrapped with white cloth, the upper is not clothed, the lower is surrounded by a silk handkerchief, and Jiayi Jinqi presses his waist. Ride in and out of the elephant or sedan. It is very good for one person to hold a golden handle umbrella and make watergrass leaves.

Wang Chongxin Buddhism. Many Chinese are monks and nuns. The clothes of monks and nuns are quite the same as in China. Also live in the temple, fasting and taking precepts.

All things are in the hands of the woman. The king and his subordinates, if they plan on the importance of the transaction, are all determined by their wives. "

But it is such a country where the Buddha and the matter depend on his wife. They have no use for beautiful girls to dance in front of the king. They sent the most powerful Muay Thai master to compete in front of Yan Changwu. The fight was bloody, and Yan Changwu was happy to accept it. , Loudly applaud, order a heavy reward!
