With the Ming Dynasty Morning Post reporting on Annan¡¯s invasion of Longzhou, Guangxi, the entire capital began to pay attention to the small country of Annan.
At the same time, above the court, a new day of morning court began again.
"If there is something to do, we will start, if there is nothing to do, we will retreat~"
As soon as Xiao Jing¡¯s voice finished shouting, several more officials stood up one after another. They looked at each other and soon the lower-ranking officials stepped back first.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
The speaker was Jiang Mian, an official born in Guangxi. He is currently a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. He is considered a very high-ranking official in the Hanlin Academy. He is also the highest-ranking official in the court among the officials born in Guangxi. This person later became a member of the Hanlin Academy in history. Zhengde Dynasty also entered the cabinet.
"Tell me~"
Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly.
"Your Majesty, the Annan soldiers invaded our Ming Dynasty Longzhou, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil, causing heavy casualties to the people of Longzhou, Guangxi, and blood flowing like rivers. I ask your Majesty to avenge the people of Guangxi!"
When Jiang Mian said this, he gritted his teeth. His fellow villagers in his hometown were slaughtered by foreigners, and he, a Guangxi native, had to stand up no matter what.
¡°If he doesn¡¯t even speak to the people in his hometown, who else will explain it to the people in his hometown?
"Your Majesty, I request your Majesty to avenge our people in Guangxi!"
Officials from Guangxi came forward one after another.
Liu Jin looked at these officials from Guangxi and nodded slightly. They were bloody. Thinking about future generations, the Guangxi soldiers were all called wolf soldiers, and they were full of blood.
Moreover, Guangxi has been invaded many times by the French who occupied Annan in history, but they have never taken any advantage in Guangxi. The Guangxi people would rather die standing than surrender to the foreigners. They are full of integrity. .
"I already know about this matter. What do you think, dear friends?"
Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly, then looked at everyone and asked.
Although Emperor Hongzhi himself had already made up his mind to send troops to Annan, it would be better to let the subordinates bring it up and let everyone discuss it together. In this case, these civil servants would not say anything. He is arbitrary and self-willed.
When the ministers heard this, they immediately began to think deeply.
Many smart ministers knew as soon as they thought about it that this matter was not that simple. It was not as simple as it seemed on the surface because Annan invaded Guangxi and burned, killed and looted, so the court had to express something.
In the past, Annan was often dishonest, jumping around like a monkey, and causing trouble from time to time. Otherwise, Emperor Yongle would not have sent 800,000 troops to destroy Annan and set up the Chief Envoy of Jiaozhi.
Generally speaking, as long as it is not too excessive, Guangxi will organize troops to fight back, teach them a lesson, and let them know that they are not to be messed with. It is rare to say that this matter will be discussed in such a serious manner above the court. matter.
¡°And the Ming Dynasty Morning Post was very cooperative in reporting this incident, describing the tragedy that happened in Longzhou, Guangxi, which aroused strong indignation among the people of the Ming Dynasty.
Although Annan did go too far this time and killed a lot of people in Longzhou, things were not as simple as imagined.
Li Dongyang thought for a moment, and he immediately understood the meaning of this. In the final analysis, it was Emperor Hongzhi who wanted to fight. The reason is so simple.
?? Nanyang has become indispensable to the Ming Dynasty. Trade with various countries in Nanyang, plantations in Nanyang, and travel to Myanmar, Tianzhu, the Middle East, and Persia through Nanyang.
We can imagine the importance of Nanyang. For Ming Dynasty, this place is not only indispensable, but also must be firmly in its own hands.
We conquered northern Luzon last year, and naturally we have to find a place to attack this year. If we conquer Annan again, we will be able to surround the east and west sides of the South China Sea, and at the same time gain a land bridge to Indochina, which will have a deeper The first-level strategic consideration is to realize the Ming Dynasty's military presence in Indochina, echoing the Nanyang province of Luzon, and jointly consolidate the Ming Dynasty's position in Nanyang by land and sea.
Annan is located at the junction of the Ming Dynasty and the Indochina Peninsula. It can be used as a springboard for the Ming Dynasty to explore the West and Southeast Asia. Its geographical location is extremely important. By capturing Annam and Champa, the Ming Dynasty can more easily control the Indochina Peninsula. It can control Champa, Siam, and Chenla in the near distance, and it can control Manchuria, Sumatra, Old Port, and Java near the peninsula in the far distance. , Ningni and other countries.
This is very important for the booming Southeast Asian ocean trade and Nanyang plantation economy.There is no benefit, and it is very likely to cause instability in the Ming Dynasty and lead to the re-emergence of the Ming generals and noble groups.
The reason why we support war now is because everyone has huge interests in Nanyang.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡ When the Major Commercial Banks and Plantations of the Ming Dynasty paid out year-end dividends a few months ago, all the big bosses in the government and the public got huge profits?
Now that the Nanyang countries are harming the interests of the Ming Dynasty and harming everyone's interests, naturally everyone will not allow it.
A war is necessary, and there are many benefits after starting the war. The land captured can be used to develop plantations, and the captured population can be used to grow sugar cane and rice. It can also clear out pirates and bandits, so that the Southeast Asian countries will no longer dare to impose heavy taxes on Ming merchant ships, etc. wait.
In short, we must fight, and fight hard.
As for whether we can win, do we still need to doubt it? (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
