Chapter 432
In fact, more than half of the southeast peninsula was originally the territory of Ming Dynasty.

During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, three propaganda and six comforts were established in the southeast peninsula.

Sanxuan is Nandian Xuanfu Division, Ganya Xuanfu Division, and Longchuan Xuanfu Division.

The six comforts are Mengyang Xuanwei Division, Mubang Xuanwei Division, Myanmar Xuanwei Division, Babai Xuanwei Division, Cheli Xuanwei Division and Laos Xuanwei Division.

These three announcements and six comforts are all affiliated to the Commanding and Envoy Division of the Yunnan Capital, and are supervised by the Political Envoy Division of Yunnan Chengxuan and the Procuratorial Envoy Division of Yunnan Tixing.

Some people think that these so-called Xuanfu Division and Xuanwei Division are like vassal states, not the territory of the Ming Dynasty, nor under the management of the Ming Dynasty.

actually not.

The Xuanfu Division and the Xuanwei Division are completely different from the vassal states.

The vassal state is indeed not the territory of Ming Dynasty, so they show their affiliation through paying tribute, and Ming only proves this affiliation by canonizing its king.

Da Ming doesn’t care about the affairs of the vassal state, and Da Ming will not recruit soldiers and horses in the vassal state. Even if a battle breaks out near the vassal state, Da Ming will only let the vassal state send troops to cooperate in the battle, and will not say how many troops must be recruited. The general dispatched by the Ministry of War came to command Yunyun.

The Xuanfu Division and the Xuanwei Division are different. Even if the battles did not take place near the Xuanfu Division and the Xuanwei Division, the Ming Dynasty would often send troops from the Xuanfu Division and the Xuanwei Division to participate in the battle.

The most obvious example of this is the Shizhu Xuanwei Division. The white-armed soldiers of Shizhu Xuanwei Division are famous Ming army elites. The Ming court does not know how many times they have been recruited, including the Liaodong War, the Northwest Suppression of Thieves, and the Southwest Suppression of Rebellion. At that time, the Ming court had recruited the white-armed soldiers of Shizhu Xuanweisi.

Also, including Qin Banghan, Qin Bangping, Qin Minping, Qin Yiming, Qin Gongming, Ma Xianglin and other generals of the Shizhu Xuanwei Division all died fighting for Daming, and even Zhang Fengyi, the wife of Shizhu Xuanwei, Ma Xianglin, died fighting for Daming .

If the Xuanwei Division did not belong to the territory of Daming, would they work so hard for Daming?

Therefore, the Xuanfu Division and the Xuanwei Division are not in the same nature as the vassal state. The territory under the jurisdiction of the Xuanfu Division and the Xuanwei Division is the territory of Daming. Except for a certain amount of autonomy, they are the same as the ordinary state capitals of Daming.

The territory under the jurisdiction of Sanxuan and Liuwei under the command and envoy of Yunnan is also the territory of Ming Dynasty, and it is not a vassal state at all.

Originally, when the Ming Dynasty was strong and prosperous, the southeast peninsula was still relatively peaceful, and the three announcements and six comforts were relatively obedient.

However, after Yingzong's orthodox dynasty, the prestige of the Great Ming Dynasty declined day by day. Many of the vassal states that were originally attached to the Ming Dynasty stopped paying tribute, and the chieftains who originally belonged to the Ming Dynasty also began to be dishonest.

Among them, the most famous one is the rebellion of Yang Yinglong, the Bozhou Xuanwei envoy of the Wanli Dynasty.

At that time, the Ming court directly assembled an army to destroy Yang Yinglong, and at the same time directly split the jurisdiction of Bozhou Xuanwei Division into Zunyi Prefecture and Pingyue Prefecture, which were under the jurisdiction of Sichuan Chengxuan Political Envoy Division and Guizhou Chengxuan Political Envoy Division.

The records in history are very clear, but the records about the three propagandas and six consolations in history seem to be not very clear.

What is going on here?
The three propagandas and six comforts are the same as Yuan Keli, Liu Aita and the Anshe Rebellion. Some people have gone too far, and they have no shame in recording it!

In fact, during the Chenghua period of Emperor Xianzong, the three propagandas and six comforts began to be chaotic.

At that time, the Mengyang Xuanweisi and the Mubang Xuanweisi took advantage of the weakening of the Ming court to jointly attack the Myanmar Xuanweisi. Mang Jisui, the Burmese Xuanwei envoy appointed by the court, was directly killed by them. The land was also divided between Mengyang Xuanweisi and Mubang Xuanweisi.

At that time, the Ming court was already unable to control the chieftains in this land far to the west and south. Although Mang Jisui, the Xuanwei envoy of Burma, wrote to the Ming court for help many times, the Ming court did not send troops to rescue them.

As a result, the Burmese Xuanwei Department was wiped out!

If that's all, that's all.

After all, the Xuanwei Division only attacked each other, and did not rebel against the imperial court.

However, this matter has buried a hidden danger, because Mang Jisui's wife is from the royal family of Donghu, and after his youngest son Mang Ruiti fled to Donghu, he vowed to avenge his father.

That's all, Donghu was originally just a country under the jurisdiction of the Xuanwei Division of Myanmar, and its strength was not very strong.

The problem is, this mangrui style is the orthodoxy of the Burmese Consolation Envoy!
When he grew up and raised troops to recover the former place of the Burmese Xuanweisi, there was a huge response, and the momentum was not too great.

As a result, he not only defeated Mengyang Xuanweisi and Mubang Xuanweisi, regained the former place of Myanmar Xuanweisi, but also declared himself king in the name of Donghu, and announced that he would no longer accept the jurisdiction of the Ming court!
In the name of avenging his father, he frantically attacked Mengyang Xuanweisi, Mubang Xuanweisi, and even Babai Xuanweisi and Laos Xuanweisi, constantly attacking cities and territories.

This is tantamount to rebellion.

However, it was the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty at that time, and the Ming court was completely overwhelmed by the southern Japanese and northern captives. It was simply unable to manage the three propagandas and six comforts, and the imperial court still did not send troops.

As a result, the Donghu Dynasty rose and became the largest force in the southeast peninsula.

After Mang Ruiti's death, his half-brother Mang Yinglong became even more arrogant, leading an army to the hinterland of Yunnan!
Fortunately, this is the time when the Wanli of the Ming Dynasty was rejuvenating, Zhang Juzheng was implementing the New Deal, and the national power of the Ming Dynasty was growing stronger day by day, and the Ming court was no longer used to the Donghu Dynasty.

At that time, the Ming court directly appointed Qian Guogong Mu Changzuo as the military officer of Yunnan, and sent Liu Shizeng, the right capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, as the governor of Yunnan, and then mobilized troops from several southwestern provinces to counter the rebellion.

This time the Ming court was relatively successful in suppressing the rebellion.

The fierce generals Liu Ting and Deng Zilong led their troops to make three announcements and six comforts to other chieftains, breaking the Burmese army in Panzhihua, south of Yaoguan.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Ting led his army all the way to Awa City, the capital of the Donghu Dynasty, forced to land Donghu Prime Minister Yue Feng and General Mang Zhuo, and took the Donghu capital.

So far, the Xuanweisi Rebellion in Myanmar has been basically put down, and only Mang Yingli, the son of Donghu King Mang Yinglong, escaped.

Liu Ting also built an altar in the Weiyuan Camp and vowed to the public: "Six comforts are opened up, three declarations are restored, the hearts of the barbarians, seek tribute from far away, wash armor and gold sands, hide knives and think in caves, don't let go, don't let the southerners take it!"

It's a pity that after Zhang Juzheng's death, Shenzong Wanli was like a runaway wild horse, messing around. He even sent eunuch Yang Rong to Yunnan to mine and collect taxes!
Now, Yunnan was directly destroyed by this eunuch!

After Yang Rong arrived in Yunnan, he became the emperor of the land, arbitrarily domineering, arbitrarily, and amassing money.

But anyone who dared to disobey him was punished by him in the name of the court!

Chen Yongbin, the governor of Yunnan, Cai Ruchuan, the governor of Yunnan, Fan Gaoming, the commander of Yunnan, and Gan Xueshu, the prefect, were all arrested and imprisoned by him for tax violations. Thousands of local officials and ordinary people were tortured to death by him.

At that time, Duke Qian was too frightened to speak out, for fear of being harmed by the eunuch favored by Wanli.

An eunuch actually thought he was the Emperor of Earth.

Whether it is a court official or an ordinary person, he can arrest and kill if he wants to, but anyone who dares to refuse to obey will be tortured and tortured to death!
The real emperor Wanli is not as arrogant as him!

As for the problem, Wanli still doesn't care about it, and indulges his misconduct, no matter how the court officials impeach him!

Yang Rong's misbehavior directly aroused the civil uprising. Commander He Shixun led tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians into his tax envoy's office, and directly killed Yang Rong and more than [-] of his henchmen.

When Shenzong Wanli heard that Yang Rong was killed, he was still very sad. He didn't eat for several days, and finally ordered to kill the commander He Shixun and other "rebels" before giving up!
He had no idea how serious the consequences Yang Rong had caused.

At that time, the entire military and political system in Yunnan was almost completely paralyzed by Yang Rong alone.
At that time, the Ming court also exhausted its national power due to the three major campaigns, and was unable to manage the affairs of the southeast at all. The three propagandas and six comforts have almost all escaped the control of the Ming court, and it has become the world of the Donghu Dynasty!

This is the "Yang Rong chaos in Yunnan" that officials of the Wanli Dynasty are unwilling to mention.

Because this thing is ridiculous!

How could a eunuch be so lawless!

How absurd an emperor can be to such an extent!
How could Wanli have the nerve to let someone record such a shameful thing in detail?
When he saw the detailed records, he would burn them up!
Wouldn't it be embarrassing to record such absurd things!
Taichang thought of the history of the chaos in the southeast, and couldn't help sighing.

He was the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace at that time, so he had heard about these things.

It's a pity that at that time he was equivalent to a deposed prince, without any power at all!
However, it is different now.

Donghu dynasty, crazy enough, you want to unify the southeast peninsula, right?
Mang Yingli, you can do it, and even led the army to fight in Siam.

Very good, just to settle the old scores with you!

Thinking of this, Taichang waved his hand directly: "Map."

Cao Huachun heard the words, quickly dug out the map of the southeast peninsula, and ordered people to spread out in front of him.

Taichang pointed directly at the map and asked, "How many troops are there in Donghu, and where are they all?"

This means that the emperor is ready to send troops to rescue him!

Hearing this, Zheng Sui quickly lowered his head and looked at the map carefully.

He looked carefully for a while, and then pointed to the north of Siam King City and said: "Your Majesty, there are more than [-] horses in Donghu. At this moment, almost all the north of Dacheng is occupied by them. Their forward is less than a hundred miles away from Dacheng. gone."

More than [-] horses?

When Taichang heard the words, he couldn't help but be stunned.

He thought for a while, and then asked solemnly: "You said they bought guns and cannons from the barbarians in Europe. Do you know how many guns and cannons they have?"

Hearing this, Zheng Sui thought about it for a while, and then estimated: "I have never been to the front line, and I don't know exactly how many muskets and cannons they have. However, according to the description of the Siamese general, they should have hundreds of muskets." and dozens of artillery pieces."

Fortunately, only a few muskets and cannons.

If Donghu has tens of thousands of muskets and hundreds of cannons, it will be troublesome. You must know that they have an army of more than [-]. Even if a hundred thousand soldiers of the Shenji Battalion can do it, there will be heavy casualties!
Taichang thought about it again, and then asked: "What about Siam, how many people are there under the King of Siam?"

Zheng Sui said without hesitation: "At this moment, the King of Siam has mobilized 10 troops to garrison the royal city. There are probably not many troops in other places."

One hundred thousand against more than three hundred thousand, plus they have hundreds of muskets and dozens of cannons, how many people need to be sent to support it?
Hearing this, Taichang couldn't help frowning and thinking.
