The empire wants to train troops for Siam and also station troops?
Is there such a good thing?
Naskun almost laughed on the spot.
As long as these conditions are agreed to, Siamese will be the most loyal dog of the Ming Dynasty from now on.
What a blessing it is to be the dog of the empire!
If nothing else, from now on in Indochina, other countries will have to lower their heads and understand who is the boss in this area.
"The superior country has shown great kindness and love, and Siam has nothing to repay. We can only do our best and be loyal forever."
Naskun and others knelt down in front of Xu Erjue and agreed on the spot.
This time, Xu Erjue was confused.
"Don't you need to go back and ask the king for instructions?"
Naskun said matter-of-factly: "His Royal Highness the King will only be deeply impressed if he can be favored by the country."
Xu Erjue smacked his lips, really not understanding the mentality of a vassal country.
But no matter what, the door of Indochina has been opened to the empire.
If you don't seize this God-given opportunity, you will be punished by God.
He quickly compiled several letters and sent them to the central government, the Nanjing Governor, the Southwest Strategic Group, and the South China Sea Fleet.
Regarding overseas garrisoning, it is nothing new for today’s empire.
After all, there are imperial troops stationed on Ceylon, Madagascar, and Cam Ranh Bay.
It's just that this time Xu Erjue played a bigger game and actually captured two military bases in Siam.
But everyone can understand the meaning.
With the naval base in Pattaya, we can control Cambodia and Annan; with Chiang Mai, we can contain Myanmar from the flanks.
Therefore, all parties reacted quickly and finally made a decision.
Cao Wenheng even rushed to Siam in person and paid a visit to King Bassetthong.
The arrival of the Duke of the Empire greatly excited Siamese people, who held the most solemn welcome ceremony.
The negotiation between the two parties was also very pleasant.
Regarding the imperial garrison, everyone in Siam was happy to see it happen.
Siam has very frequent business contacts with the Empire, so it understands what the Wehrmacht is about.
First of all, the military discipline of the National Defense Force is there and it will never disturb the people.
Since it will not cause any trouble to the people and can also protect the safety of Siam, where can we find such a good thing?
Secondly, the National Defense Forces soldiers are very rich.
Next to the military camps in North Korea, Japan, Annan, Luzon and other places, it has developed rapidly and become a prosperous place second to none.
Even though the empire has strict orders that prohibit businesses such as pornography and gambling from being near the military camp, the soldiers' casual consumption is enough to make the locals make a lot of money.
Siamese businessmen have long been jealous of the benefits.
Upon hearing the news that the empire planned to station troops in Siam, these people immediately started making noises and conducted all-round lobbying.
In the end, Cao Wenheng reached a series of agreements with Siam on behalf of the empire.
The empire will train 100,000 regular troops for Siam and allow Siamese soldiers to go to the imperial military academy for further studies.
Siam ordered 170,000 rifles, 1,100 artillery pieces, and 570 mortars from the Empire.
Not only that, Siam has decided that the military will learn from the National Defense Forces in all aspects.
In this way, except for necessary weapons, all equipment must be in line with the National Defense Forces.
This business was even bigger, involving a total amount of about 8 million yuan.
Yes, the transaction between the two parties was settled in imperial currency.
Siam has long seen the convenience of the Chinese dollar, and simply deeply tied it to the empire, using gold and silver to bind the Chinese dollar.
This is another unexpected surprise.
Bassethorn personally ordered the recruitment of civilian men and began to build camps for the National Defense Forces in Pattaya and Chiang Mai.
The Southern Strategic Cluster mobilized the 27th Security Division to Siam and stationed in Chiang Mai. The Third Detachment of the South China Sea Fleet was stationed in Pattaya, accompanied by a battalion of the First Marine Division.
Siam showed enough sincerity, and the empire reciprocated.
The Lu Group cooperated with Siamese dignitaries, set up factories in Siam, and established cement companies and construction companies.
As a result, advanced construction materials such as cement began to take root in Siam, and they will definitely become popular in the future.
The achievements in diplomacy were quickly reflected on the battlefield.
The Ming Dynasty court fled all the way into Myanmar, and it was not until Grand Duke City that it was able to stabilize its footing.
At this time in Myanmar, it was still unknown that Mang Kun and his 30,000-strong army had been wiped out.
When they learned of the arrival of the Canming court, they held a grand welcome ceremony and tried their best to provide help.
Seeing that Burma showed no sign of repentance was in line with the empire's strategic thinking.
Zuo Rong gave an order, and the 10th Division crossed the border without stopping and captured Meng Gong.
At the same time, Siam, who could not wait, also sent troops to attack, causing war in southern Myanmar.
The South China Sea Fleet set out from Temasek and relied on the help of the Portuguese to establish a logistics supply base in the Andaman Nicobar Islands, and then directed its troops towards Yangon.
The high mountains and vast rainforests in northern Myanmar are expected to drive the southwest strategic cluster to ecstasy. If you want to inflict pain on Myanmar, it would be easier to march from the southern sea.
The storm is about to come, and Myanmar finally feels the crisis.
"Our biggest advantage is that the grassland is large enough. No matter how hard the National Defense Forces attack, they will never find us successfully in this vast grassland. Therefore, the slave suggested that we retreat step by step and lead the National Defense Forces in circles. Once all is exhausted, With their food and fodder, victory or defeat will be determined.”
The weather is getting warmer and the grasslands are covered with green, but the nerves of the Khalkha Mongolian tribes are tense.
Everyone understood that now it was the Wehrmacht's turn to attack.
In the battle at Longyuan City, the fierce firepower of the National Defense Forces had destroyed the last pride of the Mongols.
They were all frightened and lacked confidence in the next battle.
Due to lack of manpower, Fan Ji has been promoted step by step and now has a considerable voice.
His resourcefulness has been recognized by many people.
After all, Haug was able to stably control Khalkha Mongolia as an outsider, and he played an important role.
Even the lamas admired his wisdom, how could the rest of the people not be convinced?
Even Xu Yaqing thought it was good when she heard Fan Ji's strategy of "exchanging space for time".
"Since we can't go head-to-head, this is the best. The National Defense Forces only have about 200,000 people at best, and most of them are infantry. If they dare to divide their troops on the grassland, it will be a good opportunity for us to defeat them individually."
Hauge has grown a lot and developed the habit of doing good things.
"Then we will withdraw all the troops and horses to Hulanhu hypothermia. What will happen next depends on how the National Defense Forces act."
Following his orders, the Mongolians on the grasslands began to abandon their inherent pastures and sadly stay away from their homes.
As for when he will be able to come back, no one knows.
Xu Yaqing felt that doing this alone was not enough.
"There are still many tribes who are dissatisfied with us and will become hidden dangers. If Prince Su can marry the flower of the grassland, it will definitely become a good story."
