Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 1149

When Wei Wu just came into contact with Zhu Yuanzhang, the imperial court sent troops to the southwest to pacify these chieftains.

Mu Ying then defeated Prince Liang of Yuan and pacified the Yunnan region. He was named Duke of Qian by Zhu Yuanzhang and ruled Yunnan for generations.

But even so, the Ming Dynasty only conquered some of the chieftains, and the chieftains of the Ava Dynasty were still active.

It's just that due to the strength of the Ming Dynasty, they dare not provoke like they did in the past, but this does not mean that they don't have the intention to do so.

Wei Wu was even certain that the Ava Dynasty and those chieftains were still thinking about controlling Yunnan and Guizhou.

As long as they had the desire, Yao Guangxiao could prescribe the right remedy and bring these chieftains into the alliance with the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

What Wei Wu couldn't understand the most was Siam. The territory of this country did not border the Ming Dynasty, and was even separated by several small countries.

Why did they join forces with the Northern Yuan Dynasty? Even if we take a step back and say that the Ming Dynasty was really destroyed by their joint efforts,

If other small countries can get territory as a benefit, then what can he get? This is totally unreasonable!

With this doubt in his mind, Wei Wu directly took out a map of Asia from later generations and looked at the location of Southeast Asia.

Shen Lin saw this scene and knew that Wei Wu was thinking about something, so he didn't say anything to disturb him.

Not long afterward, Wei Wu found a possibility on the map that could only be guessed and could not be confirmed.

Siam is the Thailand of later generations, but they were called Siam in the Ming Dynasty, while they themselves were called the Ayutthaya Dynasty.

Looking at the map, to the east of the Ayutthaya Dynasty is Chenla (Cambodia), and to the north is the Lan Xang Kingdom (Laos).

The Lancang Kingdom was actually composed of some small tribes and city-states called "Meng", just like the Tusi in the southwest.

The most important thing is to the west, where there are two countries, namely the Lanna Kingdom and the Sukhothai Dynasty, which were once brother countries with Siam.

These three countries combined together form the complete land area of ​​Thailand in later generations, which is what Wei Wu guessed.

Because the Ayutthaya Dynasty was richer and its national strength developed particularly rapidly, it began to expand outward.

The three kingdoms, which were originally brotherly countries, became enemies, and then started a war and confrontation that lasted for hundreds of years.

Interestingly, the conflict between the Ayutthaya Dynasty and the Sukhothai Dynasty occurred in the 11th year of Hongwu.

The current time is the eighteenth year of Hongwu, which means that the two sides have been in a state of hostility seven years ago.

So is there a possibility that Yao Guangxiao could use this as an excuse to win over Siam and the Northern Yuan Dynasty to send troops to the Ming Dynasty?

After all, in terms of strength, Siam is now a rising regional power, far more powerful than Annan.

According to the geographical location, the Lanna Kingdom borders Myanmar, to the right is the Sukhothai Dynasty, and to the right is Siam.

If Yao Guangxiao promised Siam that it would send troops, he would then let the chieftains of Myanmar help him destroy the two countries.

It is nothing more than giving some benefits as a reward and the opportunity to expand the territory. Siam will not refuse such conditions.

Although these are just Wei Wu's speculations, it is undeniable that such speculations are very likely.

"Yao Guangxiao, you really went to great lengths to destroy the Ming Dynasty! You traveled all over Southeast Asia in a year and a half!"

While muttering to himself, Wei Wu suddenly smiled contemptuously.

"But what expression will you have when you realize that even with the alliance of so many small countries, you still can't defeat the Ming Dynasty?"

Although Wei Wu guessed that Yao Guangxiao's purpose of appearing in Lincheng this time was most likely to lure him out.

But regarding the news that he reported on the alliance with many small countries, Wei Wu believed that Yao Guangxiao did not lie about this matter.

First of all, this news was reported to the Northern Yuan court. Yao Guangxiao would never speak nonsense about such a big matter.
