"No matter how strong the Ming Dynasty is, it cannot do whatever it wants. As long as we embrace each other, we are not afraid of the Ming Dynasty! Don't be afraid!" The Siam envoy kept encouraging.

"The Ming Dynasty has lived in the north for a long time, and the climate is cold. When their soldiers arrived in the South China Sea, the forests were dense, the miasma was everywhere, and there were poisonous snakes and venomous insects... God will take them away if these Ming people cannot survive!"

When you hate someone and cannot kill him, you usually hope that God will appear.

But they forgot one thing, God is also bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. This time, God is standing on the side of the Ming Dynasty!

When dealing with the countries in Southeast Asia, the army must not be head-on.

Haven't you seen the Mongolian cavalry attacking Annan and bleeding from his head. The Ming Dynasty's several conquests have suffered heavy losses and the gains are not worth it... After all, the terrain and climate here are too unfavorable to the soldiers in the north.

It’s not that the soldiers cannot fight, nor that these monkeys have help, but that they are really too serious for non-combats to lose their troops.

Hundreds of thousands of people went south and before they even arrived at the battlefield, they lost more than half of them due to diseases and plagues. From ancient times to the present, the biggest enemies of mankind are those invisible bacteria and viruses. These little things are much more powerful than swords and guns.

Liu Chun didn't think that the Ming Dynasty's troops could crush everything.

So he chose another method. In fact, Zhang Fu and Li Jinglong have tried it repeatedly, and it is indeed effective.

"The Supreme Emperor, Your Majesty, please see... do these South Asian countries have what in common?"

Li Jinglong also participated in the throne ceremony. At this moment, he was holding a stick in his hand, facing the sand table, pointing fingers, and showing a sense of pride to guide the country and inspiring words.

Zhu Di didn't even look at him directly. This waste dared to talk to him about military use. It was so long-lasting!

Li Jinglong found that he was ignored, so he could only turn to Liu Chun.

"Duke Hai, you have been on the sea for so many years and have experienced much better than many land ducks. Don't keep it a secret, just tell me quickly!"

Li Jinglong was happy when he heard this.

Yes, why bother with a landlady?

He coughed twice and began to talk endlessly, telling... "The terrain of the South Ocean is broken, with many islands, and even the land is relatively small. Moreover, because the rivers and mountains are separated, the territory is divided, and there are many small countries! It can be said that it is as numerous as a cow!"

The land duck Zhu Di snorted slightly, nothing strange, I knew it long ago.

Li Jinglong cleared his throat and continued: "Agricultural production in the South China countries is generally concentrated in the estuary delta and the offshore plains. After all, the water and heat conditions here are the best, and the output is also large... Their ability to develop inland is very weak."

"Agricultural concentration areas are population concentration areas, population concentration areas, and urban concentration areas... Therefore, the core cities of the countries in the South China Sea are all in areas adjacent to the ocean, and some are simply port cities!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Di's eyelids were slightly raised, while Zhu Gaochi was already searching for the sand table to verify what Li Jinglong said.

When he compared it carefully, it was true that seven out of ten were in line with this rule.

Even if you are not on the verge of the ocean, the distance is not much different.

Li Jinglong has already explained this truth thoroughly. Offshore agriculture is developed, and maritime transportation is convenient, which facilitates concentrating materials and supplying urban demand. This rule also applies to the Central Plains dynasty, but the Central Plains area is too large and cannot be placed on the coast, so only by building canals can we solve the needs of the massive population of the capital.

"After figuring out the conditions of the Southeast Asian countries, conquering land, setting up state prefectures, and dispatching officials... this is very unrealistic and has endless troubles."

"The best way!"

Li Jinglong cleared his throat and raised his voice. "The best way is to attack from the sea, break through the capital, and destroy the centers of these countries. Then we set up strongholds along the coast, rely on the strongholds to radiate inland."

"The inland of the countries in the South China Sea are generally controlled by the tribal chieftains. As long as they settle it, they will basically control a country. Therefore, the core of managing the South China Sea is not the land, but the business."

Li Jinglong talked eroticly. When he said this, Zhu Di, even though he had widened his eyes, he was really a man who had been separated for three days.

This guy is indeed a little bit of something!

It turns out that the idea of ​​operating Nanyang in the past was wrong. No wonder we couldn’t incorporate these places into the territory for a long time?

The more Li Jinglong spoke, the happier he became. He had never been so satisfied.

"If you want to control Nanyang, you must grasp one key!"

"It is when we try to conquer these countries with goods. Will their own power oppose it?"

This time Zhu Di also began to think about it.

Can you not object?

Who would like to lose their wealth and let the mermaid meat?

Li Jinglong finally smiled, "The people who own large tracts of land will not object to those who are large tracts of land. These people need to obtain exquisite industrial products at relatively affordable prices to meet their living needs! As for whether they are from their own country, it doesn't matter at all!"

When Li Jinglong talked about this, Liu Chun suddenly smiled.

Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi hesitated a little and nodded. Zhu Gaochi suddenly realized and smiled and said, "This is the mystery behind the master's proposal to destroy the landlords of aristocratic families! If this gentry group is not solved, maybe one day the Ming Dynasty will really fall behind..."

As the Ming Dynasty, after Liu Chun's review, it was smooth from top to bottom.

Industrial development, increasing employment, driving agricultural progress, interests can be transmitted smoothly and eventually reach the hands of most ordinary people. Although this transmission process is not fair and reasonable, the court can still mediate in the center, roughly allowing the entire country to move forward together.

But in a country that has not been sorted out, things are not that simple.

Take those big landlords and families as an example. Why do they cut their own losses and buy local expensive and inferior products? Why do they benefit those merchant groups that occupy coastal cities?

If you want to cut their meat, don’t think so!

These big landlords of big families often collude with outsiders.

Without the hinterland of the vast rural areas, local manufacturing industry cannot develop. At this time, some businessmen will choose to collude with foreign forces and transform into comprador groups... The so-called three mountains are here.

Zhu Di closed his eyes slightly, thought about the key points, and suddenly laughed loudly: "According to what you said, the pressure on these Southeast Asian countries is extraordinary!"

Li Jinglong said proudly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, these small countries will definitely not escape the palm of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Di nodded happily, "Since that's the case, what else can I say? I'm waiting for good news to sweep across the nations."

Zhu Di set his tone and stretched his waist to rest. These days, Empress Xu... Well, it should be Empress Xu. She has arrived, so Zhu Di naturally wants to accompany his wife more.

As for Zhu Dapang, he is also preparing to return to the Ming Dynasty to enjoy the treatment of the emperor.

The Liu family has arrived and is preparing to go out to sea with Liu Chun... This result is very different from what Liu Chun expected. He thought he could run overseas and be happy.

But now I see that this is not the case at all.

He and Zhu Di jumped out of the shackles of the Ming Dynasty, but when they turned around, they fell into a cage called "Earth". Zhu Di is now more like the world emperor, and he is the world prime minister... The two of them were sublimated at the same time.

Liu Chun had seen through it, and it wasn't time for him to hide in his leisure time.

Since that's the case, then just throw your arms around and make trouble!

"Go and call the envoys."

Soon, a large group of envoys dressed in strange clothes and looked full of grief and angry faces came to Liu Chun. They had seen through it now that the Ming Dynasty was becoming more and more disgusting.

It's simply unreasonable and insatiable.

"I've called you here, there are a few things to talk about... I signed a financial agreement a few days ago, which is far from enough. You should also be clear that all the kings under the world are kings, and all the kings are kings. This is the rule since ancient times!"

Liu Chun skillfully used this great killer weapon since ancient times.

"I conceived this way of the disposal opinions of various countries. Your kings, officials, aristocratic families, chieftains and vassal states, and all these Ming dynasties remained unchanged."

"We just set up ports in coastal cities and open trade... From now on, tariffs, currency, foreign trade, and garrisons are responsible for these governors stationed by the Ming Dynasty."

"These governors are divided into sixth grade: king, duke, marquis, bon, son, and male. The rank of the governor represents the status enjoyed by the country. Your monarch is called the king of the country internally, and obeys the arrangements of the governor from the outside. This is the final decision after the Ming Dynasty weighs the pros and cons. I hope you can convey it back as soon as possible and tell your monarch to accept the proposal of the Ming Dynasty and never harm others or yourself!"

This time, Liu Chun finally implemented the five-couple system planned by Zhu Di and Daoyan.

In the past, Zhu Di always said that he planned to enfeoff the world and control the world... But the problem is how to control so many countries overseas and such vast territory?

You can’t just rely on brute force to fight it down little by little!

Moreover, not all the nobles of the Ming Dynasty had the ability to expand their territory.

So Liu Chun came up with such a compromise plan to allow the five-couple system to be implemented smoothly.

As long as you can hand over the tariffs and currency to the Ming Dynasty, the rest will be left to the people in the country to make trouble for themselves. Whether they live or die, it has nothing to do with the Ming Dynasty.

But these envoys are not all idiots.

Not only did you accept the currency, but you also had to control tariffs, garrison troops, and send a governor... Especially the governor still has the monarch. Isn't this the Supreme Emperor?

What did the Ming Dynasty regard us as? Even if we die, we will not accept it!

An envoy stood up bravely, "Those conditions are useless even if we kill us! Our king and our people will not agree! As the superior country, you should be kind! Don't think that we are all easy to bully!"

A very righteous statement was really resounding.

Liu Chun chuckled and said, "Which country is the best country? Your courage is admirable!"

The messenger said proudly: "I am the messenger of Zhenla Kingdom... We had already established our country during the Qin and Han Dynasties. When it comes to history, it is no shorter than the Central Plains! We also have bones!"

Liu Chun nodded slightly, "What a bone... In three days, your king will come. Let me see your bones!"

The envoy was stunned. What? Why did the king come?
Chapter completed!
