Win the Ding 1617

() On the first working day after the festival, five thousand words are here, and everyone will continue to support it. <.The difference between Preah Vihear Temple and other temples in Chenla is that she is located on the cliff of the Biandan Mountains at an altitude of 550 meters. The whole temple building is magnificent and shocking.The first person to build the Pawesia Temple was Yesowman I (ani), the fourth monarch of the Kingdom of Angkor. After he ascended the throne in 889 AD, he planned to build a holy temple in the Biandan Mountains, and finally chose Preah Vihear. on the cliff.People at that time thought it was a blessed land.However, the construction of Preah Vihear went through many twists and turns, and it took more than 200 years to complete the construction.It was officially completed around 1152.During the period, the Angkor dynasty experienced 13 monarchs, and the temple has been continuously built.Although there have been constant internal struggles in the royal family, the desire to build the holy temple has never changed.

The architectural style of Preah Vihear Temple is similar to Angkor Wat.The temple is distributed on cliffs with a length of 800 meters and a width of 400 meters, with long steps going up and down on all sides.Between the first and second floors, there are 28-meter-long carved dragons on both sides of the corridor, and there are seven stone pools within the walls of the ancient temple.There are gates and walls on each floor of Preah Vihear Temple.The corner of the mountain gate is raised, and there are exquisitely carved patterns on it.The wall has a strong Angkor Wat style, surrounded by curves.The whole building is maroon in color, and it is simple and magnificent against the background of green shade and blue sky and white clouds.

In front of An Tianhong, the head of the ceremonial room, was such a temple.

"You can promise to give this temple to the Siamese, and the land we laid on the northern line can also be returned to them, but the southern line area, you have to listen to us."

The Chao Phraya River is bounded by Nakhon Sawan, the upper reaches from the north, and the lower reaches from the mouth of the river to the south. The downstream area is the famous Chao Phraya River Plain. It is hot and rainy, densely covered with water, and the river floods regularly every year, making the soil here deep. , fertile.

Shou Han's eyes glowed green, staring at this plain with an area of ​​about [-] miles, and of course, the Malay Peninsula.

"However, in order to make up for our losses, we have the right to collect taxes on soldiers, horses, money, guns, and goods entering and leaving the Chao Phraya River from Siam."

"In addition, in order to facilitate the withdrawal of our military vehicles, Siam must provide labor, money and food to build roads from Ayutthaya, Nakhon Ratchasima, to Wulat, Chatthani, Siseju Province, Roi Et Province, etc. bordering Chenla. .”

"In order to compensate for the loss of our navy, Siam should provide our army with a certain amount of shipbuilding timber every year, no less than the number of six ships with [-] materials. Our army can pay an appropriate price for the excess. Siam must respond to this Tax-free items."

"The king of Siam must surrender the original seal and go to Korat camp to see General Wang Bao. At the same time, our Nanzhong General's Palace will reissue the seal and the King of Siam."

"During our army's stay in Siam, all food and salaries will be paid by the Siam treasury."

. . . . .

The harsh conditions proposed by the South Central Army kept appearing in An Tianhong's mind, "These conditions, Siam can accept them? Except we withdraw the northern troops and return the occupied land to them." He shook his head and smiled wryly. .

However, An Tianhong's character has determined that as long as it is something he thinks, he must do it.This can be seen from the beginning when he debated Confucianism with Shou Han. In Shou Han's words, he was more absurd.

Therefore, the task of negotiating with the Siamese envoy this time fell on him, the owner of the house,

"The minister of the barbaric small country, I have met the master of the country." The envoy Basong Chalunphong kowtowed to An Tianhong very humbly.The fluent Mandarin made An Tianhong feel good and surprised.

"How can your envoy speak Mandarin so well?" After seeing the ceremony, An Tianhong was curious and hesitated on the one hand.

"My lord doesn't know, but the minister is Hua Zhou. His ancestors went to the West with the eunuch Sanbao. His surname was Chen. In order to make a living in Siam, he changed his name and took the local name and surname. However, the minister never forgot. I am a descendant of the Celestial Dynasty, and I burn incense on the tablets of my ancestors every day."

"It's not just the ministers, there are many Chinese people in the lower state. In the big city mansion, every time there is a market, the official dialects come and go. When General Wang Bao was in Surin mansion, he was also grateful for this, so he opened his eyes to our soldiers."

According to Chalunpong, or Chen Lun, three points are false and seven points are true.There are many people who speak Chinese, and there are many overseas Chinese in Siam. An Tianhong has known this for a long time, and Shou Han himself also understands it in his heart.However, Shou Han also knows that most of the overseas Chinese of the Chinese nation retain their national traditions and cultural customs, and only the overseas Chinese in Thailand have been assimilated locally.

"For such a country, we must deal with it with 12 points of spirit." This is Shou Han's instruction to An Tianhong.He doesn't want to have things like you don't believe in Thaksin or Mingbu Layingla in the future.

After a few polite words, the two began to get down to business.

"My lord, this officer was appointed by the king of our country. I am here to plead guilty. I implore the general to accept our country's request for peace. The soldiers are in constant disaster, and the lives of the people are miserable. Many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the sky cannot bear it."

What Chen Lun said was quite compassionate, if it were someone else, he might feel the same way, but unfortunately, what he met was An Tianhong, who was already a loyal follower of Li Shouhan.Today, with Hejing as the center, there are dozens of primary schools in the Jiangbei area, and more than 700 children of various ethnic groups are enrolled in the books. These children can read and write, learn the six arts promoted by Shou Han, and walk out In the school, they may continue to study in the political affairs hall, receive education from village officials, or be recruited by various workshops to be preparatory craftsmen, learning metallurgy, chemical engineering and many other Mohist studies, but they are all worrying about food and clothing, and their future is bright.

Let me ask, is there any gentleman who does not hope that his students will have a bright future?

What's more, in the past few years, he has seen He Jing transform from a wild town into a prosperous city, and he has his own merits in it.

His thinking has been quietly reformed by Li Shouhan, and he is no longer a Confucian scholar in the traditional sense, but a bit like a legalist and a political strategist. "I don't care if you're in dire straits, as long as the people under my rule are suitable!"

"Of course, my general has a bodhisattva's heart and is a person favored by the heavens. Naturally, he wants to negotiate a peace. Here, this is the negotiation condition for my general to personally review and finalize the draft. If he agrees, the officer can report it to the general and invite him Order, Wang Bao and Zhang Xiaohu to lead and command, stop the attack on the big city."

A thick stack of terms and conditions was placed in front of Chen Lun, which made him a little dazed, "There are so many terms? Are you going to make me Siam forever?"

"[-]. Ceded Nakhon Ratchasima (including land to the north and east, ceded the land from the lower reaches of the Chao Phraya River to the mouth of the river. . . "

"Second, compensation for military pay is 1000 million taels of silver and 200 million taels of gold. Or use equivalent items to make up for it."

"Three, recruit civilians and provide money and food to build roads in the above two areas for the convenience of our army's movement."

"Fourth, in order to make up for our army's losses in this war, our army has the right to levy taxes on goods traded through the Chao Phraya River."

. . . . . .

"This is clearly to destroy my Great Siam!" Chen Lun angrily threw the strike condition in his hand on the table.

"Although I am in the south of Siam, I have been taught by sages and blessed by Buddha. Since ancient times, there have been generals who have cut their heads and surrendered! Today, I am here as an official, but I am the king of our country, and I don't want to just watch. With swords and soldiers everywhere, people are dying, and they don't hesitate to compromise. They are really merciful to sacrifice their lives to feed tigers, but they don't want to. Your army's appetite is no less than that of raptors and hungry tigers. It's okay to be an official! It's a big deal. Walk around the city, and sue the emperor once!"

He stood up, straightened his clothes, with a dignified expression of righteousness facing the butcher's knife.

Seeing his expression, An Tianhong didn't lose her temper. She took a sip from her teacup, "Your envoy, why is this so? My general once said that when the strengths of the two countries are equal, diplomacy is diplomacy. When a country is strong, , strength is diplomacy, and diplomacy is strength for a weak country. If you feel that the strike and conditions we proposed today are too different from yours, you can go back to the post first and send people. Oh, if necessary We can provide the ship to the lord of your country. After reporting to the lord of your country, he will decide. However, if you want more, the lower officials can wait, I am afraid that the soldiers on the front line and the people in Nanzhong will not be able to wait."

"Come here." An Tianhong gently put the tea cup in his hand away. This lily porcelain is much more precious than Jiangxi porcelain. Once it is damaged, it will cause a lot of pain in his pocket. "see a visitor out!"

Sitting on the sedan chair carried by the natives, Chalunpeng, or Chen Lun kept reminiscing about what An Tianhong said. Although it was very naked and lacked the benevolence and morality after the sage's enlightenment, but benevolence and righteousness are emphasized on the battlefield Yes, it seems that there is only one Song Xianggong who died and the country was destroyed.After coming out of the ceremony room of the General's Mansion, Chen Lun took a close look at Ha Tinh Mansion along the street to the post office.

This is the busiest time in the morning, and the shops have entered the peak period of business. On the road from the port to the commercial port, the natives either carry them on their shoulders or use a cart to load them. Large and small boxes of goods are like Flowing water is normal, flowing continuously on the cement road commonly known as burnt ash.Different from the Siamese coolies or civilians that Chen Lun is familiar with, these native coolies, although sweating profusely, are smiling, with a special expression on their faces, yes, it is a kind of expectation and satisfaction for life.Rather than the kind of numbness and confusion.

"Strength, diplomacy, diplomacy, strength." Chen Lun kept chewing on these two words, and suddenly, "Why didn't the sedan chair leave?!"

"Reporting to my lord, there are inspections blocking the road ahead, and the road to the post house has military horses, money and food passing through the border, so the street is forbidden." A servant answered in a low voice outside the sedan chair.

Um?This is a good opportunity!I have been hearing about the Nanzhong Army from the mouths of those warriors on the front line, how can I believe the words of those vulgar warriors?I still have to wait for these scholars to see it with my own eyes, and I can only count it when I see it for myself. "Put the sedan chair forward, the officer has to take a closer look at the appearance of the Nanzhong Army!"

In front of the checkpoint set up by the inspection, Chen Lun's sedan chair was squeezed to the front from the crowd after being stared at and criticized. Behind the inspectors, a large road had been vacated, and the road seemed narrow and cramped on weekdays. It immediately became much wider.But it turns out that this road is also about two feet long, but there are too many people and cars on weekdays.

"Here we come! We come!" The crowd screamed, pointing to a horse in the distance.

The knight on the horse carried a recognition flag on his back, on which was clearly embroidered a phoenix soaring in the sky, holding a large flag high in his hand, he was the messenger of the Phoenix Battalion.

Twenty steps behind him, two war horses came galloping, and the riders on the horses were Huang Yishan and Yanlong, two officers of the South Army Commander Wang Bao's Guards.The two held a bamboo pole in each hand, and a piece of white cloth was hung high on the bamboo pole, on which was written in huge characters, "Our army conquered Korat City, and we will reward the victory with a horse!"

Behind the two of them was a herd of horses that seemed to be as far as the eye could see. Driven by more than a hundred soldiers of the Phoenix Battalion, their hoofs sounded like thunder, and they came along the main road.Looking at these horses, Chen Lun was in a daze. These horses were clearly the horses that Wo Luoweng had brought with him when he went north. Presumably, they were all captured by Wang Bao and became the spoils of the South China Army.

"My lord, these horses are all ours! Some horses seem to be from the army stationed in Korat City." Chen Lun's servant whispered to him.

"I know!"

He reprimanded the slave without a good voice.

One horse makes wind, ten horses makes thunder, and the momentum of more than a thousand horses passing through the market can be imagined.Looking at these horses that were originally his own, but they became tools for others to show off their power, and hearing the cheers in his ears, Chen Lun felt as if he had knocked over a bottle of five flavors, full of mixed feelings.

Finally, after all the horses had passed, the inspectors still hadn’t opened the cards. They asked people to inquire, but they were told by the inspectors, “Don’t worry, you will have to pass the army later. If you have any urgent matters, you can go to another intersection Go around, our Hejing is good at this, all roads are open. This is nearly [-] soldiers, but it will take some time!"

Hearing this, Chen Lun was a little annoyed!Isn't this Nanzhong a big tomorrow?How can the scholar-officials make way for the soldiers?The natives around him looked at him with very strange eyes, as if they were looking at a countryman who had never seen anything in the world.

"Could it be, could it be! This Nanzhong General's Mansion actually implemented the Qin system secretly? The scholar-bureaucrats also want to make way for the soldiers?"

<hun”酒楼之上，这里，正是经营chao汕口味的。喝早茶的人们正在那里高谈阔论，谈论的除了生意，农桑，便是远方的战局。

On the second floor, he gave the waiter a piece of silver, and asked him to find a nearby seat. Chen Lun sat down and ordered some refreshments such as sausage powder, shrimp dumpling and chicken feet, and waited for the troops from afar to come over.

"Nowadays, our old seniors are all the chiefs of the first insurance, leading hundreds of people. I don't know what will happen to us in the future?"

On a nearby table, several young men in blue muslin gowns gathered around a large casserole, talking loudly while drinking steaming casserole porridge.

"Looking at the current momentum, my lord must at least expand the territory. Now, the number of migrants from Fujian and Guangdong provinces who enter the country every month to reclaim wasteland has reached about [-]. According to the standards of reclaiming wasteland by adults, those who go to Jiulongjiang, Each household (no less than one strong man can reclaim [-] mu of land.”

"100 households per month, [-] mu per household, means [-] million mu. If we don't expand our territory, where can we find so much land?"

Chen Lun nodded to the waiter and asked in a low voice, "What do they eat?"

"Oh! Sir, you probably just came to Ha Tinh from other places?! This is the way we Chaozhou people eat. Put seafood, raw fish, chicken, ribs, etc. in a casserole according to your preference, and eat it with rice porridge Cook together, and finally, eat porridge and meat. Would you like some too?"

"I'm also a glutton. With such delicious food, it's unavoidable. I don't know what kind of business those little brothers do?"

"They!? Students of Zhengshitang! Today coincides with the ten-day holiday, and a few good friends will go shopping together and drink tea in a small shop. Don't underestimate them. They are students now. Later The sunfish jumping over the dragon gate is the leader of one village, one village, one village and one security."

What the waiter said made Chen Lun's hair stand on end.There are many requests for immigrant land, and there are trained village chiefs. It is said that it is a mere Siam, and it is the most powerful Burma back then.

"According to theirs, serve me a pot too." After sending the waiter away, Chen Lun began to feel uneasy.This time when He Jing came to seek peace with Li Shouhan, King Song Tan of Siam meant that as long as he kept the royal family and official position, it didn’t matter if he ransacked Siam completely. Anyway, he had never been ransacked by the Burmese.But it is necessary to let the South Central Army withdraw from the Nakhon Ratchasima area. The strategic significance there is to Siam, just like the significance of Yanyun Sixteen States to the Northern Song Dynasty.

Being condescending, once a war breaks out, the rolling iron stream of the South China Army may be able to reach the city of Dacheng overnight.

As for compensation, rewarding the armed forces, and going to Beijing to interrogate, the Siamese royal family has considered it.He even thought of such things as meat tanks leading sheep and holding walls and Yudong.However, what I didn't expect was that the Nanzhong Army actually put forward such a bunch of demands.

"In fact, this big city claims to never fall, but in fact, I think it is very simple!" On the table next to it, a student with a face full of pimples expressed his opinion loudly.
