In the simple palace of Xinzhou Port, the king of Champa, Shagubulo, stood respectfully beside Wang Shouren and Yang Yun, his whole body a little shorter.
He originally thought that the Ming Dynasty was sending troops to help the Champa Kingdom to clean up Annan. Who knew that the Ming Dynasty was not going to help Champa City, but to occupy Annan, and by the way, Champa City would also be occupied.
This was something he never expected.
?Compared to Annan, the Ming Dynasty is more powerful. If the Ming Dynasty wants to occupy Champa City, how can they resist Champa City?
With the total number of people in the Champa Kingdom less than 10,000?
They can¡¯t even defeat the Annan Kingdom, and they even need to pay tribute to the Annan Kingdom every year, let alone the Ming Dynasty¡¯s king.
What's more, now the Ming army has fully taken over the inside and outside of Xinzhou Port, and has begun to build large docks and ports in Xinzhou Port. It is obvious that this place must be built as an important port city. There will definitely be a Ming Navy stationed here in the future to deter the entire Southeast Peninsula and Southeast Asia.
Even if you want to resist now, it's already too late.
"Master Wang, Master Yang~"
"We, the Champa Kingdom, have been on good terms with the Ming Dynasty for generations, and we have always paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty. Why did the Ming Dynasty also annex our Champa City?"
Shagubulo said to Wang Shouren and Yang Yun with a look of reluctance.
"Since your Champa City has been friendly with the Ming Dynasty for generations, last winter, the Ming Dynasty issued a vassal state agreement of the Ming Dynasty. Why are you Cham City unwilling to sign it? Are you unwilling to become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty?"
Wang Shouren sighed slightly in his heart, now he felt that it was not easy to deal with.
If Champa resisted, he would simply kill them all, but it was easy. Now they did not resist. Instead, they asked why the Ming Dynasty wanted to annex Champa, and told you about the friendly exchanges. This is a headache.
After thinking about it, Wang Shouren also asked sharply.
Hearing Wang Shouren's words, Shagubulo fell silent immediately. He also knew about the Ming Dynasty vassal state agreement, but who was willing to sign such an agreement.
Once such an agreement is signed, it will really become a vassal of Ming Dynasty, and everything in the future will have to follow Ming Dynasty¡¯s lead.
What¡¯s more important is that the Ming Dynasty required that everything in the vassal states should be based on the Ming Dynasty, respect Confucianism, change Chinese surnames, and learn Chinese. This was unacceptable to the Champa Kingdom.
The Champa Kingdom used to be a country that believed in Buddhism, but in the past one or two hundred years, the Champa Kingdom has also been influenced by YSL religion from the Middle East and Persia, and many people have begun to convert to this religion.
It can be seen from the names of the kings of Champa that their culture and religion have changed.
If the situation is changed back at this time, there will inevitably be huge turmoil and problems will arise throughout the country. This will make the already weak Champa country very likely to perish.
In addition, the Annan Kingdom exerted pressure on Champa. For Champa, the Ming Dynasty is still very far away, but the Annan Kingdom is in the north and is a vassal state of Champa. The Annan Kingdom is unwilling to sign the vassal state agreement. Champa will not be allowed to sign, so Champa will naturally consider this seriously.
"how?"
"You have nothing to say?"
Wang Shouren looked at Shagubulo and asked with a cold face.
"Xiao Wang has nothing to say, but I have never offended the Ming Dynasty by occupying the city. Now the Ming Dynasty wants to annex the city I occupy. This seriously damages the prestige of the Ming Dynasty."
Shagubulo thought for a while and replied, at this time, we can only show the prestige of the Ming Dynasty to see if it is of any use.
After all, everyone has always known that the people of Ming Dynasty are extremely good-looking, from the emperor to the ordinary people of Ming Dynasty.
"No offense to my Ming Dynasty?"
Wang Shouren smiled coldly, and then asked: "My merchant ship from the Ming Dynasty comes to Zhancheng to do business. Why do you here in Zhancheng arbitrarily impose heavy taxes on my merchant ship from the Ming Dynasty?"
"snort!"
"Whether you are occupying the city, Annan, Siam, Malacca, Java, etc., you are all afraid of power but not moral."
"In the past, we were said to be a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. Every time we paid tribute, the Ming Dynasty paid us back several times. When I asked you to sign the vassal state agreement last year, none of them agreed."
¡°We went to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, but because we didn¡¯t get any rewards, everyone held a grudge. They actually deliberately targeted my Ming Dynasty merchants and levied heavy taxes arbitrarily. They also deliberately colluded with bandits to loot our Ming Dynasty merchant ships and kill my Ming Dynasty merchants.¡±
&nPeople here in Champa City began to change Chinese surnames and names.
At the same time, adjustments were also made to the Champa side, and the Xianglin Chief Envoy was established. The capital was also set up in the port city of Xinzhou Port. Some of the state capitals that had been annexed by Annan were also reclassified to Xianglin Province, and were placed in Xinzhou Port. Large-scale construction of ports and docks began here in Zhougang, laying the foundation and preparation for the next sweep of Southeast Asian countries.
As for the king of Champa State, he took a boat to Tianjin, and then from Tianjin to Beijing, letting Emperor Hongzhi decide how to arrange it.
He will definitely not be killed. As Wang Shouren said, since he is so knowledgeable, the Ming Dynasty will not treat him badly, and a prince will definitely be conferred on him.
But in the future, he will definitely stay here in the capital, just like the tribal leaders on the grassland, and be an idle foreign prince here in the capital, enjoying life and dreaming of life and death.
After all, he is the king of Champa. If the Ming Dynasty wants to rule Xianglin Province in the future, his presence will definitely be very helpful. He can save a lot of troubles with just one sentence and reduce the number of Cham people in Xianglin Province. of resistance. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
