Chapter 383 Siam Rebellion and Siege of Mu Bang

Zhu Xuan briefly explained his plan.

Now we are playing economic war with the small countries in Indochina. We use our economic strength to control them and control most of their interests. If they dare to mess around and cut off their interests, they will be in mourning.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

"Your Highness, are you sure it's possible?"

Mu Sheng considered it seriously.

He doesn't know much about economic things, it's beyond his scope of knowledge.

But based on what Zhu Xuan said, there seems to be no problem. If you use your profits to overthrow the rule of the original dynasty of Siam, and then support a puppet to establish a new dynasty, then this new dynasty can be tightly controlled by the Ming Dynasty. .

Daming arranged for people to go in and slowly replace the puppet.

As time goes by, those small countries will become the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

"feasible!"

Zhu Xuan affirmed: "Uncle Mu thought my previous thoughts were risky, so I gave them up completely. What I want next is to win without a fight."

Mu Sheng was still worried and said: "I will mobilize soldiers from the nearby guard posts to suppress the border. If Siam and Burma dare to mess around, we will fight directly."

With the military strength in the southwest of the Ming Dynasty, it would be no problem even if the entire Indochina Peninsula was conquered.

"Uncle Mu, you don't need it yet."

Zhu Xuan thought for a while and then said: "When Uncle Mu needs to send troops, I will definitely send someone to inform you."

Seeing Zhu Xuan so confident.

Thinking of Zhu Xuan's ability again.

Mu Sheng hesitated until the end, but chose to believe it, and said: "If anything unexpected happens, please let me know immediately."

If something happens to Zhu Xuan here, many people will die.

"it is good!"

Zhu Xuan said solemnly.

They discussed what they should do for a while, and before they knew it, it was night.

After dinner, Xu Miaojin and the others brought Zhu Xuan into the house.

"Are you wearing makeup again?"

Zhu Xuan can see the difference between them at a glance, and uses light makeup and heavy makeup to better express their beauty.

They were already beautiful, but now they are even more beautiful.

"I just tried some cosmetics with my mother."

Mu Yuanjun said happily: "My mother was so happy when she saw how beautiful she became. Then we also talked about my brother selling cosmetics in Yingtianfu. Mother said she also wanted to help us sell them in Yunnan. What did my brother think? Sample?"

Zhu Xuan agreed: "Of course I have no problem. Will it disturb Auntie?"

"Will not!"

Mu Yuanjun got the agreement and said happily: "Mom is quite boring in Kunming. Dad often goes to the military camp and never comes back. I will be very happy if I have something to do."

Xu Miaojin said: "Brother, I want to stay with sister Yuanjun, and we can sell cosmetics together."

Zhu Xuan also agreed: "It's no problem. Whenever you want to go back to Guangzhou, just ask someone to come to me at any time and I will pick you up."

Xu Miaojin shook his head and said: "No, we can come back by ourselves and we won't delay our brother's affairs."

Seeing the two young daughters-in-law being so considerate, Zhu Xuan felt warm in his heart and hugged them gently.

-

In Kunming, I stayed for a few more days.

Zhu Xuan left all the cosmetics at Mu's house and had someone send a batch over for them to run. It didn't matter even if they lost money, he could be responsible for all the losses. After finishing the things in Kunming, Zhu Xuan returned to Mubang first.

Although he said that Mu Sheng's help was not needed for the time being, Mu Sheng did not dare to really ignore it. He contacted the commanders of several nearby guard posts and put them all on alert, just in case, waiting for Zhu Xuan's action. It's best if it's safe all the time, otherwise they will send troops to support immediately.

Return to Mubang.

"Your Highness, we have almost made the arrangements."

Guo Ze came over first and reported: "Our method of instigating unrest in Siam is very simple. We lower the unit price for Selutai, and then openly show our willingness to further cooperate with another big family in Siam. The unit price of this family has increased. Seluthai really wants to play some tricks. They think that the purchase price of coal and iron ore in Siam is much lower than that of Champa and other countries. They are dissatisfied. Now that tricks have failed to increase the price, they will be beaten by us again. I am even more dissatisfied with the price reduction and have contacted Narota in Myanmar.”

It turns out that dissatisfaction with low prices was the reason why Selutai wanted to do something small.

However, Guo Ze did a very good job and knew how to use economic means to sow discord and arouse Selutai's dissatisfaction.

"Give the order, Mubang is on alert and has our artillery ready."

Zhu Xuan thought about the composition of workers in the factory and asked: "What proportion of workers from Siam and Myanmar account for in our factory?"

Guo Ze said: "Half of them, they still don't have access to our core technology. They only do the most superficial things, basically working as coolies. The wages we give are good, and there are many people who are willing to come."

Zhu Xuan said: "When the war is about to start, we will immediately send these people away, withhold their wages, and then cut off all economic relations with Siam and Myanmar."

"Yes!"

Guo Ze knew what to do.

Zhu Xuan did not leave Mubang, but continued to stay, waiting to fight this battle.

The provocation plan was officially implemented, lowering the unit price for Selutai, and then wooing another powerful family within Siam to trigger internal conflicts in Siam.

Now that Selutai has contacted Narota, Siam will also use this plan to execute and solve them together.

Zhu Xuan didn't think anything was wrong with his factory in Mubang, but turmoil soon broke out in Siam and Burma, competing for Zhu Xuan's interests.

However, as time went by, the coal and iron mines sent to Mubang were directly cut off.

Whether it’s from Myanmar or Siam, we won’t send it directly.

The effect of Guo Ze's plan is remarkable.

However, Zhu Xuan didn't care and was not impatient, so he continued to wait.

Time passed quickly, and several days passed.

Guo Ze came back eagerly to report that Siam and Burma were gathering troops and were gathering in the southern part of Mu Bang.

"Act as planned."

Zhu Xuan said loudly.

The Burmese and Siamese who stayed in the Mubang factory were directly driven away by them.

Various news about cutting off interests began to spread within Siam and Myanmar.

Zhu Xuan not only withheld wages, but also withheld the payment for the ore and refused to pay them directly. They dug out mountains of minerals without anyone buying them, and they didn't know how to use them.

Zhu Xuan not only plays economic games, but also plays public opinion games with them.

Within Siam and Burma, rumors must be everywhere at this time, and there are all kinds of rumors.

Zhu Xuan calmly directed the operations in Mubang and asked: "When can they attack Mubang?"

The current garrison in Mubang only has more than 5,000 people from He Fu and 2,000 people brought by Zhu Xuan, which is enough to counterattack the enemy.

"If they want to attack immediately, the armies of both countries can gather to the south of Mubang at the earliest tomorrow afternoon."

He Fu said first.

Zhu Xuan thought for a while and said: "Relax the defense and give them the illusion that they can hit here. We will wait for the enemy to come to the door and beat the enemy away. The domestic conflicts between Siam and Myanmar will definitely break out."
