Su Yonglin continued to learn the inside story of this matter and learned that after a war between the Ming and Song Dynasties, Zhao Shen, faced with the huge military pressure from the Ming Dynasty, once planned to recognize the de facto independence of South Vietnam in exchange for South Vietnam's military support for him. support.
He even studied the name of the Nanyue Kingdom and prepared to make Li Tianzuo the official [King of Annan].
He believed that as long as South Vietnam got what it wanted, it would definitely respond to the Southern Song Dynasty's request. Not to mention how many soldiers and horses it would send, at least it would be able to get some supplies and other supplies to give back to the Southern Song Dynasty.
But this process was interrupted by the second war between the Ming and Song Dynasties.
The Ming army marched south on a large scale, surrounded Lin'an, and issued an ultimatum. Zhang Shi fled into Lin'an City and instigated Shen to stage a coup. Zhao Shen was deposed. The Southern Song Dynasty could not even keep its own national title, and the name "Annan Kingdom" ceased to exist. .
So to this day, South Vietnam is still the legal territory of the Southern Song Dynasty. Regardless of whether they admit it or not, Southern Song Dynasty officials believe that the land of South Vietnam is [Chinese counties] and not an independent country.
Su Yonglin was very happy about this.
"Although Zhao Gou is weak and incompetent, he will occasionally do good deeds. Zhao Shen is a scumbag who doesn't feel sorry for his father. If I really want to ban him, I will have to go through a lot of troubles, but now there is no chance. What a twist."
Su Yonglin overthrew the Jin Kingdom and the Southern Song Dynasty one after another, and in fact took over the legal system of the Jin Kingdom and the Southern Song Dynasty.
No matter how they view this kind of thing internally, or how they explain the relationship between revolution and dynasty change, at least for now, the small foreign vassal states view the Ming Kingdom as the successor to the Southern Song Dynasty's legal system.
In this case, the Ming Dynasty's attitude towards the territory of South Vietnam naturally inherited the attitude of the Southern Song Dynasty towards the territory of South Vietnam.
this is mine.
I got my own territory back, justly and legally.
Su Yonglin suddenly felt that this wave of maneuverability was too great.
Judging from this legal relationship, he can find a simple excuse to start a war without worrying about international perceptions. I will take back my own territory and fight as I want. No one else can control it?
You are interfering in internal affairs!
After some thought, Su Yonglin invited foreign businessmen from Guangzhou to attend the New Year banquet in the ninth year of Hongwu.
During the New Year's banquet, Su Yonglin told the Champa country merchants on the spot that he had decided to recognize Zou Yana as the king of Champa and just asked him to send an official envoy. He would not leave Guangzhou for a while.
The merchants from the Champa Kingdom were overjoyed, and Su Yonglin's peripheral vision also noticed that the faces of some South Vietnamese merchants had changed and they looked less happy.
This is how international politics works.
If you want allies in the world and a sphere of influence, you have to take the initiative and pour real money into it to make others feel it is profitable. It is beneficial to follow a big boss like you and work hard for you, and only then can you get real rewards. .
Even if you want the dog to bring its own dog food to live with you, you still have to spend money on dog food and have the courage to spend a lot of money.
You have to let the dog see hope, right?
At least for a period of time in the future, Su Yonglin plans to make full use of Zou Yana as his fulcrum to leverage the political sector in Southeast Asia, intervene in the situation in Southeast Asia, and use the Champa State as an important ally to form a north-south pincer attack on South Vietnam.
Be it Korea or Japan, they are all on the menu of the Ming Dynasty. Now fill in the menu with South Vietnam, which is just one more for you.
Even better, the land itself is claimed territory by China, which has never relinquished its claim to it.
Su Yonglin placed his eyes on his beloved world map, staring at the Red River Plain area on the map, attaching great importance to the favorable agricultural production conditions in this area.
Such a wonderful alluvial plain, if managed well, could become a national granary and an important grain production base in the Ming Dynasty, and it is unknown whether it will feed back the Central Plains.
In his heart, he has regarded the recovery of South Vietnam as a necessary battle in this great ongoing war of national reunification.
This is unity, justifiable unity.
In the first month of the ninth year of Hongwu, Su Yonglin inspected Guangnan East Road for a while, encouraged farmers to work in various places, and personally participated in the establishment of some new rural areas.
He guided the local new revival members step by step on how to work, ate and lived with them, got along with them day and night, and taught them his experience.
In the process, Su Yonglin discovered that the problem of the Guangzhou Renaissance Society was not simple.
At present, there are only a very small number of local members in the Guangzhou Renaissance Association. Because the work is not carried out well, these local revival members are small in number and have little say. However, they are very enthusiastic about work and have great ideas about transforming their hometown.
Apart from them, most of the members are out-of-town members sent by the revival headquarters.
Among the non-local Renaissance members who were transferred to Guangzhou to work, there were a considerable number of newcomers who had just graduated from the training class. Together with some experienced old members to lead them, the headquarters of the Renaissance planned to use Guangzhou as a place to train newcomers.
Most of this group of people came to Guangzhou with ideals and hopes, hoping to show off their talents to change Guangzhou and lead the farmers in Guangzhou towards a new life.
The few remaining people showed dissatisfaction with being transferred to Guangzhou.
It seems that they don't want to come to work in Guangzhou. They don't like Guangzhou's backwardness and hot and humid climate. They feel very uncomfortable working here and have strong resistance.
According to the understanding, Su Yonglin learned that some people had applied to the organization for transfer out of Guangzhou many times, saying that they really couldn't adapt to the climate in Guangzhou and wanted to return to their hometown to work. But if that didn't work, they could just transfer back to Jiangbei.
Because their request was not approved, these people are very demotivated. They push things as they can. They don’t have much work experience, but they have a lot of experience in fishing.
Next is the cadre group, that is, the heads of various systems in the branch organization. They also have different views on coming to work in Guangzhou.
Some people show strong enthusiasm for work and hope to make a career.
Some people have an indifferent and muddled attitude. They may lack enthusiasm for work and lack the motivation to solve problems. Some of them are not happy about being transferred to Guangzhou, a barbaric place in their impression.
To them, this seems to be equivalent to exile, which means not being taken seriously and being marginalized, which makes them unhappy or discouraged.
The number of cadres who are muddling along is relatively large internally, and is more than the number of cadres who are willing to do things. As a result, many things in the Guangzhou Renaissance Association are difficult to advance, and many effective and constructive ideas cannot be unified within the meeting. Agree.
Because of this, there are relatively large conflicts within the association. There are sharp conflicts between cadres who want to do things and cadres who don’t want to do things. The members don’t know who to listen to and how to act. Sometimes a plan is put forward for implementation. A few days later, it was stopped again.
The repeated work has not only made the public have a bad opinion of the Guangzhou Renaissance Association, but also the Renaissance members have many ideas and opinions, and many members who have ideals and pursuits are very uncomfortable.
They tried to report it to their superiors and asked them to give them an explanation, but they always got vague answers, which disappointed them.
So gradually, people in some places became very disappointed with the revival meetings and stopped responding to their calls.
However, some landlords who were lucky enough to survive began to take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble, spreading rumors and instigating farmers to oppose the Renaissance, which further made it more difficult for the Renaissance to promote land reform.
After these problems could no longer be ignored, the Guangzhou government was forced to step down. The Guangzhou governor ordered the arrest of those landlords who had made trouble, and killed them by force on charges of conspiracy to rebel.
This is of course a solution to the problem, but it is not the optimal solution. Instead, it is the ultimate resort in desperation.
There are many similar situations. The Guangzhou government was forced to wipe the butt of the Guangzhou Renaissance Society. For this reason, Guangzhou Governor Xie Yuanliang, who served as the deputy director of the Renaissance Society branch, had many opinions about the director Hu Xin. The relationship between the two was not good. We had several quarrels.
But they did not report these matters to Zhongdu.
