Chapter 769
The Ming Principality was established.

The Strait of Malacca, a golden waterway for trade between the East and the West, has been taken down by the Chinese!
The mighty Three Buddha Qi navy was defeated in the first battle, and they ran away with their heads in their hands...

It cannot be overemphasized how great the significance of this matter is, and how much impact it has on Nanyang, China, and the entire world.

Domestic newspapers, large and small, explain the great significance of the Melaka Waterway.But for all walks of life in the Central Plains, what attracted their attention even more was the feudal vassals and the founding of the country overseas.Military and civilian gentry, officials and merchants, all are about to be bombed.

When they saw the Emperor Lu's edict three months ago, when Fang La led the army to conquer Sanfoqi, they might have had some guesses in their hearts, but after thinking about it, they never thought that Emperor Lu would let it go so openly.

After all, is there still a choice of feudal towns?

"This is a vassal state!" Countless people exclaimed at the moment of "I really want to know everything about it".

Since the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, China has not seen such a pure "vassal state" model for a long, long time.

Many people in later generations said that the vassal states of the Western Han Dynasty were the same as the enfeoffment system of Zong Zhou, but there are actually differences.If the vassal states of the Western Zhou Dynasty were colonial governors, the vassals had to obey the orders of the Emperor Zhou, and the vassals had the obligation to guard the territory, follow the soldiers to fight, pay tribute, and report on their duties for the Emperor Zhou.The vassal states of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty were the governors of the autonomous provinces and overseas provinces of the Confederation, let alone what happened in the later period; while the vassal states of the early Western Han Dynasty were the chief executives of autonomous special regions + commanders of military regions.There are only princes with the same surname, and the kingdom is relatively independent, controlling administrative, financial, military and other powers, almost a "state within a state".

It's a bit like the relationship between the countries of the Commonwealth of Nations and John Bull.

There really is a difference.

But now, Lu Qian has perfectly replicated the scene 2000 years ago.The opposite sex is enfeoffed, and the state is established.Fang La's army went south, the establishment of the Ming Principality, the colonization of overseas "barren" lands, and the entire system of Manichaeism was transplanted to Nanyang thousands of miles away...Combined with the birth of the vassal states, all of these touched human nerves.

After that, the Manichaeists were "nationals", the local aborigines were "savages" before they were naturalized, and those aboriginal dignitaries were "barbarians" to be crusaded.

How many Confucians of the Song Dynasty were too excited to be themselves at this moment.I don't know if it's true or not, anyway, everyone praised Emperor Lu, and what they said was like hype.

It's just that Emperor Lu never cared about them.

It was not uncommon for the princes of Zong and Zhou to bump into barbarians when they went out.Qi, Jin, Song, Lu, Chen, Cai, etc. all the Zong Zhou feudal states, can finally stand upright, it is not because of benevolence and morality, but because of drawing swords and wielding knives, using the severed heads of barbarians Build your foundation!

The same is true for the current Fang La Army. The situation is similar to that of the Zongzhou heroes who were enfeoffed thousands of miles away 2000 years ago.

Therefore, there are still countless problems and troubles waiting to be solved by Fang La and his group, just like the heroes of Zong Zhou did to the barbarian tribes outside the city.

The ideas of the two sides are different, and the interests of the two sides conflict, and those indigenous dignitaries are willing to obey.

It's really like that scene back then. 2000 years ago, the tribal leaders who lived freely in the Central Plains, Qilu, and northern Hebei, etc., were mentally disabled, and only listened to the words of the princes and kings who brought people to their land and called "I am the boss".Therefore, fighting and sawing will be indispensable on the land of Sumatra in the future.The complex and changeable terrain and unfamiliar geographical environment will also be the biggest enemy of Fang La's army.

But the people in the country didn't care about the dangers inside, but were full of envy of Fang La.This is also the case for many people to understand how Fang La, Tian Hu, Wang Qing, and Zhong Xiang, the four great feudal clans, are as non-suspicious as Yidu; only then do they understand why the four great feudal clans obediently obey the orders of the Yidu court. , fought in the north of Saibei and Lingnan.The two parties must have made an agreement a long time ago, so the Taibai Tower incident, which would have considerable influence in the eyes of the Imperial City Secretary, did not even come up.

Few people will see that Fang La is also with his head tied to his waistband, working hard thousands of miles away, opening up territories and stabilizing new territories for the Chinese nation.They only saw that Fang La, the loser in the world's dragon struggle, could freely claim to be an orphan and dominate one side; they saw that the descendants of the Fang family were all prosperous and wealthy, and they were the lord of a country...

I have to say this is sad.However, the glory after a thousand years is enough for Fang La and others to wash away the darkness of today.

Almost in an instant, countless people's attitudes towards the Four Families headed by Fang La changed.From the hostility that was regarded as a hidden danger in the troubled world to the envy and hatred of Hong Guoguo, the family of the prince's hundred generations.

However, at the same time, as soon as the influence of the Principality of Ming Dynasty flooded, whether it was Tian Hu in the Hetao area, or Wang Qing and Zhong Xiang in the South Vietnam area, the Sanjia Fanzhen saw scholars who suddenly came to vote.

The three families were all overjoyed and warmly welcomed them. They will continue to feudal vassals and establish a country as in the future, and the great country that has been conquered by swords and soldiers needs scholars to manage it.Now there are scholars coming to vote, they are not as hypocritical as Emperor Lu, that is, no matter the new or the old, they will accept it.

Therefore, Chinese people's passion for "getting ahead" can really surpass some deep-rooted 'traditions' to a certain extent.

To tell people to live thousands of miles away is to leave their hometown, and it is to leave their hometown and be humble.But if you ask someone to become an official in a place thousands of miles away from their hometown, it will be a thousand miles away, isn't it?
In fact, this is indeed a new way out, isn't it?Those whom Emperor Lu despises can go "overseas" to realize their "ideals and values".This is the best use of resources.

And to be honest, Fang La in Sumatra is still going well. As soon as he arrived, the Tianfang people lowered their heads knowingly and recognized the existence of the dock area—Mr. Staying in the wharf area, the merchants in the party gathering area that day only had a quota of ten people each. If there are not enough servants, can they be recruited from the city?Anyway, they are determined not to let them come and go freely.Each merchant has only ten attendants who can follow them freely in and out of the gathering area.

The Tianfang merchants naturally understood why, but the Manichaeans were crossing rivers and demolishing bridges, which was really annoying.

Fortunately, Fang La and the others also have a B number in their hearts.Emperor Lu didn't expose Tianfang people, that's because when Emperor Lu conquered the world, there was no use for Tianfang people at all.Manichaeism has really used it once.Therefore, it is unreasonable for them to do this.

If so, the Manichaeism agreed that the Tianfang people could build the Xingyue Temple in the port area, and gave them a request that the Emperor Lu of the Central Plains firmly disagreed with. Although they were not allowed to preach, it also calmed down the mood of the Tianfang group.At the same time, this also means that the stability and prosperity of the Liujia Strait region have been maintained to the maximum extent.

The reason why Malacca is a golden waterway is because it communicates business between the East and the West.Together with this golden waterway, the reason why this strait has become so important today cannot be denied that there is no credit for the Chinese maritime merchants, but it cannot be denied the significance of the existence of the Tianfang people.

Tianzhu merchants have already withdrawn from direct trade with China, and the existence of Tianfang merchants has completely replaced the meaning of the former. Now, if the Zhuluo navy takes a hostile attitude towards the new Ming Dynasty because of Sanfoqi, the Tianfang merchants can go further for the future. its service.Directly package and undertake their foreign import and export.At the same time, this will also damage the interests of Chinese maritime merchants.Because to cross the vast ocean, from Sumatra to Tianfang, Tianzhu is a hurdle that cannot be bypassed.

The entire trade may be shuffled to form a new order!And the establishment of this brand new order met the needs of Emperor Lu to the greatest extent.

——Rice should be eaten one bite at a time.Nanyang had just inserted a nail, and Tianzhu was far from the time to do it.As for the tests and challenges that Fang La and his group are facing, he just needs to stand aside and watch the show.

If the ability of the Manichaeism can't suppress Srivijaya's counterattack, then it's not a pity that Fang La hit the street.

After receiving Fang La's promise not to cross the Strait of Malacca, the "vassals" of Sanfoqi on the Malay Peninsula offered their warm blessings to Fang La and the new Ming Dynasty.

Some knowledgeable and interested people took the initiative to call for the introduction of Mani Guangfo.

But it is foreseeable that after a period of time, the big and small princes on the Malay Peninsula will definitely affirm that the Fangla Army will not cross the border, and there will be a fierce fire among themselves.Because of the external sense of urgency and tremendous pressure, they are forced to strengthen themselves.

The manpower firm has some goods.

Emperor Lu was very satisfied with the result. There were still so many things going on in the country. He didn't have the time to involve Nanyang with too much energy. He just let the Nanyang navy enter Temasek with a big stroke of a pen.
