Chapter 1033 Four Countries Come to Pay Tribute
"You can go back. Read"
After telling Ruan Xiong about it, Zhao Xu waved his hand, and Ruan Xiong went back with great gratitude.
Watching Ruan Xiong leave, Qin Shan said, "Congratulations to Your Highness, Jiaozhi has surrendered. The other four countries will follow."
Looking in the direction of Funan, he said: "Funan and Nanzhang have always been loyal and obedient to me. It is said that this time the Piaoman Kingdom also surrendered without a fight. The general thought that as long as he sent envoys to the two countries, they would meet before them. Come and pay homage to His Highness, and as for the Piaoman, just ask Guan Tong to find a suitable supporter from the Piaoman royal family."
"Where is Siam?" Zhao Xu asked at this time.
Different from the situation of the four countries, Siam is the only country that has not become a colony due to the competition between Britain and Frank.
But although Siam has some independence, it is still influenced by Britain and Frank.
In this war, they also promised to send troops.
It can be seen that Pius Man was defeated so miserably that the soldiers did not cross the border of Siam after all.
Now that Cochin and other four countries have been taken care of by him, Siam naturally becomes the last problem.
"The general thinks that it is better to clean up the child. If the children at home are not spanked, they will not know the pain, let alone be afraid." Qin Shan said.
Zhao Xu nodded and looked at Qin Shan with admiration in his eyes.
Among these generals, Qin Shan has a dull personality, but he likes reading the most.
If he was a pure military commander before, now he is both civil and military.
"That's right. After Guan Tong pacifies the Piao Man Kingdom, your Qinglong Army and Suzaku Army will attack Siam from both sides, east and west. I will ask the King of Siam to take the initiative to see me." Zhao Xu said.
After talking about this, Zhao Xu thought of something and said to Qin Shan, "When the war in the southern region is over, I will hand over Goryeo and Japan to your Qinglong Army for protection. How about that?"
"It's just up to His Highness's arrangement." Qin Shan replied, calm on the outside but very happy on the inside.
Although they captured Jiaozhi, the five southeastern countries would eventually be handed over to the Suzaku Army.
All armies in other directions also have their own protective areas, but the Qinglong Army does not.
Therefore, he had no reason to be unhappy when King Yan handed over Goryeo and Japan to him.
The soldiers under his command must also feel comfortable.
After all, Korea and Japan combined are much stronger than the five southeastern countries.
Zhao Xu laughed twice. Could he still understand the thoughts of the generals?
Who wouldn’t want to grab a few more steamed buns in a basket?
So he said, "If you want to laugh, just laugh. There's no need to hold it in."
"Hehehehe..." Qin Shan finally couldn't bear it anymore.
The two chatted for a while, and Zhao Xu asked Qin Shan to go back.
In the following days, he stayed in the Jiaozhi Palace, waiting for the pass to control the entire Piaoman territory.
At the same time, Qinshan sent generals to serve as envoys to Funan and Nanzhang.
After waiting for about nine days, Guan Tong arrived in Jiaozhi from Piaoman, and with him was an old man from Piaoman.
"Your Highness, the general has fulfilled his mission. The Suzaku Army has now taken control of the sixty-four cities of Piaoman." Entering the main hall, Guan Tong gave Zhao Xu a military salute and then said loudly.
Zhao Xu looked pleased.
The territory of Piaoman is much larger than that of Jiaozhi, so it will naturally take more time for the Suzaku Army to control Piaoman.
Then he looked at the old man beside Guan Tong.
Upon seeing this, Guan Tong immediately explained, "Your Highness, his name is Keba, and he is the leader of the Piao Tribe of the Piao Man Kingdom."
As he spoke, Guan Tong motioned to the guide who came with him to translate for the old man.
After Guan Tong finished speaking, the old man knelt down to Zhao Xu, "Keba meets His Highness King Yan."
Zhao Xu waved his hand, signaling for the old man to get up.
He was not too surprised by his identity.
Because Tsui Hark had previously provided him with information about the situation in Piaoman's country.
In fact, the Piaoman are not a single tribe. The entire country is composed of multiple tribes.
Among them, Yongya represents the Bamar people. After the Bamar people became stronger, they unified the Piao barbarians.
He also used his superior position to suppress other tribes, including the major tribes in the Piao Man country, the Piao and Meng tribes.
Today, the Bamar people represented by Yongya have suffered heavy losses and are unable to recover.
Naturally, the Piao and Meng tribes are the only ones left in the Piao Man country.
Between these two tribes, the leader of the Piao tribe was once the ruler of the Piao Man Kingdom.
This is also the origin of the name of the Piao Man Kingdom.
In fact, the current Piusan Kingdom has been changed to the Maine Kingdom by Yongya, but Dasong people are accustomed to calling it Piusman Kingdom.
Now, Guan Tong has brought the leader of the Piao tribe, which means that he believes that the Piao tribe can replace the Bamar tribe again and rule the Piao barbarian country.
Sure enough, Guan Tong said, "Your Highness, the last general met with various leaders in the Piao Man country when he was in the Piao Man country. They expressed their willingness to surrender to Da Song. At the same time, they introduced the leader of the Piao tribe to replace Yong Ya. ”
"Yes." Zhao Xu nodded, "Since it was your choice, I will choose to trust him." Zhao Xu said.
Don't use it if you doubt it, don't doubt it if you employ it.
He trusts Guan Tong, and naturally he also trusts Guan Tong's choice.
Furthermore, the Piaoman Kingdom is much more complicated than Jiaozhi, so this can only be the best choice.
Thinking of this, he looked at Koba and said, "Before arriving at the palace, someone should tell you what to do after taking charge of the Piaoman Kingdom. Are you willing?"
"I do." Koba said hurriedly.
The Piao people had always been the rulers of the Piao barbaric country, and they were unhappy when they were suppressed by the Bamar people.
In order to compete for the dominance of the Pyu Barbarian Kingdom, they also had fierce wars with the Bamar people.
In the end, they failed and suffered a massacre by the Burmese.
In order to survive, they had to submit to the Burmese.
Now, they have a chance to turn things around, and they naturally have to seize it and restore the glory of the Pyu.
Moreover, Dasong will protect the five southeastern countries and provide military protection in the future, so their safety is not a problem.
As for the condition that Xiang can only be called king and respect Dasong as the suzerain, it is not unacceptable to him.
"That's good." Zhao Xu nodded with satisfaction.
Looking at Qin Shan, he said: "Let the King of Jiaozhi, the King of Funan, and the King of Nanzhang come."
Before Guan Tong arrived, the King of Funan and the King of Nanzhang had arrived first.
It can be said that as soon as their envoys arrived, the two kings immediately rushed to the Jiaozhi Imperial City and submitted a surrender letter.
Zhao Xu also reprimanded them, without overly blaming them, but took the opportunity to seize their titles and gave them the title of king.
After all, Dasong was also responsible for this matter. Nanzhang and Funan had asked Dasong for help when they were invaded by the Western Tu people.
But at that time, Dasong could not protect itself, so it naturally pretended to be deaf and dumb.
Soon, the four gathered in the main hall.
After looking at each other, the four knelt down at the same time and presented the letter of credence.
This letter of credence is a formal document signed by a monarch of a country, representing the will of a country.
The content above is naturally that they are willing to accept Dasong's Protector General, become a vassal state of Dasong from now on, and respect the emperor of Dasong as the common master.
Qin Shan put away the letter of credence and handed it to Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu smiled slightly.
Four of the five countries in the southeast came to pay tribute, and the only one left was Siam, which was still influenced by Britain and Frank.
Next, he would lead his troops there!
