    The coalition forces are approaching the capital of Funan, and victory is in sight.

    However, Huang Mingcong ordered the entire army to stop advancing, which puzzled the commander-in-chief of Zhenla, Po Shimi.  Posumi hoped to continue marching, directly attack Funan City, and completely destroy Funan Kingdom, but Huang Mingcong refused.

    However, at this time, the Zhenla Army no longer had the arrogance of before. In the Battle of Bansai, it was entirely dependent on the Sui Army to turn the tide. Therefore, although the Sui Army had a small number of troops, it occupied a dominant position among the coalition forces.

    The generals were about to win, but Huang Mingcong stopped moving forward, also puzzled.

    Huang Mingcong explained: "Funan is vast. Our army cannot even fully occupy Rinan County now. It is simply incapable of occupying it. If Funan is destroyed at this time, it will only be an advantage to Zhenla. If Zhenla annexes Funan, we will be by our side."  A behemoth will appear, and there is no guarantee that they will not take advantage of Nichinan County."

    Everyone suddenly realized.

    Huang Mingcong then sent Cui Renhan, the commander of Jiaozhi, to Funa City to negotiate with Funan Kingdom.

    At this time, because of the defeat, Funan Kingdom was already in panic all day long as it saw the coalition forces pressing on the border, fearing that it would be annihilated.  At this time, the Sui army sent an envoy to negotiate peace, which was like a life-saving straw, and everyone naturally grasped it tightly.

    The Sui Dynasty had no intention of destroying Funan, so it asked Funan to cede the eastern Mekong Delta basin, compensate a large amount of money and grain, and pay tribute to the Sui Dynasty (Rinan County) every year.

    Of course, the people of Funan are not willing to accept this treaty that is humiliating and humiliating their country. The Mekong River Delta is vast and fertile, and is an important grain-producing area in Funan. As for compensation and annual contributions, Funan is willing, but the appetite of the Sui army is too great.

    Negotiations quickly became difficult.

    At this time, Huang Mingcong defeated the reinforcements from the west of Funan in Sikun and wiped out more than 30,000 enemies.  Cui Renhan also took out the treaty between the Sui Dynasty and Zhenla. The two parties agreed that the Mekong River would be used as the boundary, and the two families would share the land of Funan.

    Cui Renhan also threatened: "Now Funan Kingdom has lost nearly one-third of its land. If it continues to resist stubbornly, the entire territory north and east of Phnom Penh will be lost. Will Funan Kingdom still have the ability to protect itself by then?"  You must know that our army and Funan have very few demands. If Zhenla comes to make demands, what do you think Funan will have left?"

    Funan State had no choice but to finally accept the Sui army's request.

    Although Funan Kingdom was heartbroken to lose a large piece of land, it was very clear about Zhenla's ambitions.  The Sui people wanted money and food, while the Zhenla Kingdom wanted to destroy them.

    Cui Renhan also privately assured the Funan Kingdom that as soon as the contract was concluded, the alliance between the Sui Dynasty and Zhenla would immediately end. By then, they would not care whether there was peace or war between the Funan Kingdom and Zhenla.

    Funan Kingdom has suppressed Zhenla for so many years, and it still has a psychological advantage over Zhenla.

    In July of the fourth year of Daye, the three parties signed a treaty in Kampong Cham, which stipulated: "Funan will cede the east of the Tong Nai River and the Mekong River Delta to Sui Dynasty; it will cede Ubon Ratchathani, the south bank of the Mon River, and Ratanakiri to Chenla.  Compensate the Sui Dynasty with 10 million shi of rice and pay it back in five years; and give the Sui Dynasty 1 million shi of rice every year"

    This war against Funan ended with the complete defeat of the Funan Kingdom.

    After the war, the influence of Funan State on the entire Southeast Asia was greatly reduced, and the Sui Dynasty began to dominate the political situation in Southeast Asia.

    After that, Southeast Asian countries began to pay tribute to Nichinan County, basically in the form of food.  Huang Mingcong doesn't want anything else, he just wants food.  Although these small countries are not large in area, they produce grain and can bring an income of millions of dan to Nichinan County every year.

    Soon after the war between Sui Dynasty, Zhenla and Funan ended, Funan, which suffered a major blow, began to decide to retaliate, and the target of revenge was Zhenla.

    For Funan, if it wants to regain its prestige, it can only find one country to take action.  Bullying a small country doesn't work, and Sui looks very powerful, so he doesn't dare to take action easily. Zhenla, who has obtained permission from Sui not to interfere, is Funan's first choice.  Zhenla was already very ambitious towards Funan, so giving him a lesson this time would also alleviate some of Zhenla's covetousness.

    ??This is how it is when a country becomes big. When fighting, they don¡¯t even dare to lift the table. They can only throw a few bowls to show off.

    In November of the fourth year of Daye, Funan State mobilized 90,000 troops and attacked Zhenla in three directions on the pretext of a sneak attack across the border by Zhenla.  The middle route army went straight to Bansai along the Mekong River; the right route army attacked Banlong, the capital of Ratanakiri, along the Srebo River; and the left route army set out from the Biandan Mountains in the east to attack Ubon Ratchathani.

    This time Funan Kingdom suddenly attacked and caught Zhenla by surprise.  The three armies of Funan State were overwhelming all the way and even defeated the city of Chenla.  A request for help from the Chenla border??The snow flakes are generally towards the capital.  At this time, facing the menacing Funan National Army, the Zhenla people were not to be outdone and sent their main force to fight.

    Chenla defeated the right army of Funan Kingdom and won the Battle of Banlong. The Funan Army was defeated and fled south to Mondulkiri.  This left the Funan Army's flanks wide open, and the Chenla Army took advantage of the victory to pursue it, cutting off the Funan Army's retreat in one fell swoop, and besieged the main force of the Funan Army's Middle Route Army in the Stung Treng area.

    At the same time, Funan's left army also made rapid progress.  The Bawen area is a newly attached land, and people's hearts are unstable.  After the Funan army entered Bawen, the local nobles rose up one after another to win the grain and prosperity.  The Funan army went all the way north, including Anjaalun, Mudahan, Savannaji and other important towns, successfully detoured behind the Chenla people, and approached Champasak, the capital of Chenla.

    At this moment, Funan almost penetrated Zhenla, and the Zhenla people could no longer sit still. The main force gave up the siege of the Funan army and began to turn north to rescue the capital.

    Seeing this opportunity, the Funan Army turned from defense to attack and followed in pursuit.

    Seeing that the pursuers continued to pursue him, the famous general of Zhenla Army, Lha Xuanmei, stopped and set up an ambush in Bansai.  When the main force of the Funan Middle Route Army arrived at Bansai, the Zhenla Army came out in all directions.

    The commander-in-chief of the Funan Army was Bhabhavarman. Seeing that he was ambushed, he did not panic. Instead, he responded calmly and ordered the entire army to organize defenses on the spot to defend themselves against the enemy.

    At this time, the reinforcements coming from the south quickly moved towards Ban Pahang after hearing the inquiry.

    La Xuanmei did not expect that the resistance of the Funan Army was so tenacious, and a clever ambush turned into a strong attack.  His troops attacked the Funan Army in the direction of Bansai for a day and night without success. At this time, reinforcements from the Funan Army arrived. Seeing that La Xuanmei was attacked from both sides, she had to retreat.

    In the battle of Bansai, both sides were exhausted and suffered tens of thousands of casualties. In the end, no one won.

    Laxuanmei then moved north to Mengkong and continued to fight fiercely with the Funan Army.

    Although the Funan Army in the north had won many battles and was advancing vigorously, due to continuous advances, its troops lacked offensive weapons and had poor logistics supplies, and ultimately failed to break through Champasak.  The armies suffered heavy losses in the siege and had to retreat.

    So far, the war between Funan and Zhenla has entered a stalemate stage.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
