Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 913 Extraterritorial Jurisdiction
Just as Fan Zhenlong was about to refuse, Fang Jun shook his finger and said, "Brother Fan, don't refuse in a hurry. Benhou knows that you don't want it in your heart. How do you think it is different from the Chenla Kingdom? Let me tell you Tell me, it makes a big difference!"

Fan Zhenlong held back his anger and cupped his hands: "I would like to hear the details!"

the difference?

The difference is that the Zhenla Kingdom is robbed by people with sharp swords and sharp guns, and you are taking advantage of people's dangers to make people have to send them to your door!
You are much more shameless than Chenla...

Fang Jun unfolded his three-inch tongue, telling him the facts and reasoning.

"Look, if this place becomes the permanent territory of Datang, then Datang will definitely build a seaport again, which can be used for both military and civilian purposes, and the money invested will probably be no less than one million guan. It is impossible for Datang to combine its own craftsmen and Didn’t the laborers transported across the ocean rely on the local people? Such huge financial resources will eventually be earned by the people and merchants of Linyi Kingdom. The capital city is only thirty or fifty miles away, and the army can be guaranteed to arrive in one hour, and since then, Linyi Kingdom has no worries of destruction!"

Fan Zhenlong was tempted...

He didn't have to think about whether Datang's garrison here would threaten the security of the capital, because with the invincible military front of Datang, he could raze the capital of Linyi to the ground anytime and anywhere as long as he wanted to.

In front of Datang, Lin Yiguo's country has never been safe...

That is to say, the Tang Dynasty with high mountains and far seas could not station a large number of troops for a long time, otherwise what would happen to Lin Yiguo in the history books?Not only Linyi, Chenla, Siam and other countries are all scum in front of the Tang army, and they have perished a long time ago. I don’t know how many times!
Fan Zhenlong also understands that Datang doesn't look down on the land of Lin Yiguo, and even if it is occupied, it can't be defended, and it is a waste of military expenditure.

In this way, the garrison seems to have no problem.

As for sovereignty...

What the hell is going to subjugate the country, and what kind of sovereignty is needed?
Fan Zhenlong struggled for a long time, then nodded fiercely: "This one is fine! Master Hou still has conditions?"

Just now Fang Jun said that this is only "one", then there must be "second", maybe "third" and "fourth" are also possible.But what can be done?The country is about to fall, and the army of the Tang Dynasty is the only savior. People use knives and I use fish and meat, so let's be slaughtered...

Fang Jun did not hesitate to praise: "Brother Fan is indeed a sensible person, Lin Yiguo has a bright future! Then let's continue to discuss..."

"Secondly, since this place is the territory of the Tang Dynasty, all merchants who do business here, no matter the merchants of the Tang Dynasty, Linyi merchants, or Hu merchants, only need to pay taxes to the Tang Dynasty, which has nothing to do with the Linyi Kingdom. Interfering, and not obstructing merchants from your country to come to trade."

Regarding this point, Fan Zhenlong agreed very simply: "No problem!"

In his mind, this place was originally a barren beach, sparsely populated.It is only natural for merchants from the Tang Dynasty to come here to trade. Without this port, there would not be so many merchants from the Tang Dynasty who followed.

"readily!"

Fang Jun praised again, and poured the fine wine for Fan Zhenlong himself with a smile on his face: "There is one last small proviso, if merchants from the Tang Dynasty come here to do business, they will inevitably enter your country's territory, and have a relationship with your country's merchants. Naturally, mutual conflicts and disputes are unavoidable. If such things happen, the merchants of the Tang Dynasty will not accept the trial of your country, and they will all be judged by the permanent government of the Tang Dynasty here in accordance with the laws of the Tang Dynasty. Your country must not interfere..."

Now that we are playing great voyages, how can we not colonize?

And if you want to colonize, how can you not engage in "extraterritoriality"?
Fan Zhenlong just took a sip of wine into his mouth, and he was still savoring the mellowness and sweetness of the grapes from the Western Regions. Hearing this, the wine spit out after a sip...

"no!"

Fan Zhenlong blushed all over his face: "In this way, wouldn't the Han people be superior to others in Lin Yiguo? This is absolutely not acceptable! Even if Datang is given the same port again, this is absolutely unacceptable!"

Just kidding, what did his Fan family rely on to be able to sit firmly on the throne of the king of Linyi Kingdom for generations?
It is the support of countless Cham people!

If it is done like Fang Jun, not only the Tang people will be rampant in Linyi country, but even the Han people in the country will surely rise. This will directly affect the status of the Zhan people and damage the support of the Zhan people for the Fan royal family. That's going to be a big deal!

Fang Jun was surprised that Fan Zhenlong's thinking was so sharp, and he could see through the mystery hidden here all at once.You must know that there is no concept of "extraterritoriality" in the world at this time, and this person's ability can be seen.

But Fang Jun wasn't worried about Fan Zhenlong's rejection at all...

Fang Jun poured himself a drink, and Fang Jun smiled and said: "Brother Fan, think twice before doing anything. The Marquis and Brother Fan hit it off immediately, and I regarded you as friends in my heart, and I also have a sense of identity with Lin Yiguo. After all, it used to be a country of Han people. Do you know if the copper pillar bought by the General Aid is still there? If the Marquis only recognizes benefits and doesn’t care about affection, then Brother Fan thinks that Ben Hou will send someone to talk to the people of Chenla, what kind of promise will he get?"

Do you really treat yourself like an onion?
If it weren't for Lin Yiguo being so big that I couldn't eat it, why would he sit here and ink with you?
Today, if you promise, you have to agree, if you don’t agree, you still agree, you are determined!
Fan Zhenlong was horrified, and stared at Fang Jun who was drinking a small wine in disbelief.After a long while, he suddenly said discouragedly: "Just follow the Lord Hou's wishes, and I will follow everything..."

Just like Fang Jun said, if he goes to contact the Chenla people, what conditions will the Chenla people promise to Fang Jun?
The promise is obvious, and the people of Chenla will agree without hesitation to any conditions!

As long as the Tang Dynasty sent troops, the people of Chenla would definitely return in defeat, and the people of Chenla were not stupid, as long as the Tang Dynasty did not help Lin Yiguo, they would agree to any conditions they wanted!
Still the same sentence, what can I do?
Fan Zhenlong's mouth was full of bitterness. Could this be regarded as driving the tiger out of the front door and welcoming the wolf in the back door?
Fang Jun was overjoyed. He put down the wine glass in his hand, and greeted him: "Come here, please wait with pen and ink. Please Fan Shizi sign a memorandum. We will formally sign the treaty after repelling the invasion of Chenla. What do you think, Brother Fan?"

The corner of Fan Zhenlong's mouth twitched, what do I mean by fart!
Isn't it just what you say?
Dejectedly said: "Everything is up to Lord Hou to decide."

Fang Jun laughed loudly: "Come on, come on, you and I will get drunk together tonight, and at dawn tomorrow, the navy will set off in full gear, let me fight for our allies!"

Fan Zhenlong's mouth was full of bitterness: "How dare I disobey my orders?"

"Wahhaha... Come, come, this Marquis will introduce you to the generals in the army!"

*****
The east is white, the mountains and forests are surrounded by mist, the leather armor of the soldiers is full of water droplets, and the branches and grass leaves are also full of crystal dew.

The burly elephant stands in the open space outside the forest, with its long trunk curled up and down, never stopping for a moment, playing leisurely and contentedly... There is a sturdy basket made of tree and rattan on the elephant's back, and the soldiers sit on it , put the long iron spear by his side, closed his eyes and dozed off.

Li Shaman sat on the sliding pole raised by the four of them, his gorgeous robes were also wet and uncomfortable, but his heart was full of unstoppable enthusiasm...

Three hundred elephant soldiers are enough to wipe out Lin Yi, plus the seven thousand Zhenla elite soldiers in the dense forest, I am afraid that even if the army of the Tang Dynasty came, they would have the strength to fight, right?Since the Rizal family took charge of Chenla, it has never had such a strong strength!And I am about to lead these Chenla warriors to annex Linyi Kingdom, which will make Chenla's strength advance by leaps and bounds, even in the face of the suzerain Funan Kingdom, it will not be inferior!

On the side of the sliding pole, Chen Jingshuo, the general of the Linyi Kingdom who had defected, was looking at Sangapura City, which was faintly visible in the mist in the distance, and said nervously: "Prime Minister, the soldiers have rushed for hundreds of miles, and they are already human. Sleepy and exhausted, why don't you sit and rest for a while before launching an attack?"

He thought Rishman's decision was unwise.

These Chenla soldiers started to raid with all their strength from the border of the two countries, crushing and attacking all the way to the capital of Linyi Kingdom. If they did not make repairs, the soldiers of Linyi Kingdom would wait for work with ease, and the outcome might be uncertain.

Li Shaman snorted and glanced at Chen Jingshuo with disdain.

People who betray their ancestors, even if they have real skills, are still looked down upon wherever they go...
