Gao Shishi of the Beijing Division was still preoccupied with the formation of the Praetorian Guard, while the Siamese side was already in full swing.

On September 21 of that year, a battle broke out in the Sukhothai area of Siam between the Siamese rebels and the Jinghua coalition forces. What is surprising is that Huang Zhiting, who personally led the troops to the expedition as the commander, did not let the wolf soldiers of the Servant Clan, who had made many great achievements, fight as the main vanguard.

Not only did the wolf soldiers never get the vanguard position, but even the artillery of the Jinghua garrison in Megatron Tiannan was only in a subordinate position in this operation, and the real vanguard was a young general surnamed Liu. The number of troops led by him was not large, and it was supplemented by 1,000 surrendered Japanese soldiers as the core, supplemented by 2,000 Burmese soldiers, forming the counterinsurgency vanguard army.

Needless to say, the identity of this general is Liu Xin.

The Battle of Sukhothai had far-reaching significance and impact, in large part due to the city's special status in the Kingdom of Siam.

Sukhothai City was originally under the jurisdiction of the Khmer people, and in the era of non-faith, legend has it that the founding monarch of Sukhothai was the mythical hero King Phra Luan, who was the child of the goddess Naga and a king, possessed great wisdom and magic power, and was deeply loved by the people, who ascended the throne in 1208 (the first year of Jiading in the Southern Song Dynasty), opening the Sukhothai regime.

However, it is more widely accepted by historians that in 1238 two Thai generals, Khun Bang Gangtao and Khun Pha Man, successfully became independent and established the Sukhothai Dynasty. Khun Bang Steel Tao was proclaimed King of India, becoming the first King of Thailand. Although a number of Thai dynasties were established during the same period, Sukhothai is still regarded as the first dynasty of Thailand in later generations, and has had an important impact on Thai culture, witnessing the spread of the Thai people to the Chao Phraya River valley and the development of Buddhism as an important state religion. In later generations, many Thai paintings, sculptures, and buildings still have the shadow of the former Sukhothai.

The Sukhothai dynasty was followed by the current "Ayutthaya Dynasty", and there is no doubt that the Ayutthaya Dynasty was also deeply influenced by the Sukhothai Dynasty. Therefore, the outbreak of the Battle of Sukhothai for Siam is like the outbreak of the Battle of Nanjing in the Ming Dynasty, which attracted the attention of the whole world and everyone was concerned.

Liu Xin has a general impression of Sukhothai, because in her eyes, the most things in the city inside and outside are Buddhist temples and pagodas. For her, who has no religious beliefs like Gao Shipra, these Buddhist temples and stupas are purely useless, and the construction of these things not only consumes people's power and money, but also their consumption is continuous - you can't just build without maintenance, and the completion of these things means wasting a lot of land.

So the atheist Liu Xin did something that made her hated by many Siamese people: she ordered the Buddhist temples and stupas outside the city to be swept away before the war began. The temple was used to garrison the army, and the stupa, which was useless except for a look, was completely demolished by her, and the resulting masonry was stored for future use.

Of course, she did not do this simply because she was disgusted with Buddhism, in fact, the main reason was that the location of many Buddhist temples was too suitable for artillery positions, so she was "interested".

The Siamese people in the city were quickly enraged by Liu Xin, and they took the initiative to attack regardless of the offensive and defensive positions of both sides, trying to stop Liu Xin's "atrocities", but they happened to fall into Liu Xin's plan, and more than 20,000 Siamese rebels gathered here from northern Siam were ambushed by Liu Xin with a round of fierce artillery, and then surrendered to the Japanese Ding to clear the stage.

The Siamese rebels were defeated and lost, and many people wanted to run back to Sukhothai when they saw that the situation was not good, but found that Huang Zhiting's handsome banner had been blocked on the back road.

In the end, the main force of the rebels in northern Siam was basically wiped out in this battle, with more than 4,000 killed and more than 15,000 captured, and the rest were scattered.

Huang Zhiting and Liu Xin did not hesitate to launch a siege battle, and the Jinghua artillery turned around and began to bombard the city of Sukhothai. Despite Sukhothai's special status, the city's defenses were not strong (the dynasty became a vassal of the Ayutthaya dynasty at the end of the dynasty, which shows that the defense strength was not good), and the core main force had been lost, and the people in the city were extremely panicked, and it was breached in less than an afternoon.

The Jinghua coalition army invaded the city, Sukhothai was immediately lost, and the Kingdom of Siam recovered by the Jinghua "generation" of Siam. Phitsanulok Province, located not far east of Sukhothai, was still loyal to the royal family for the time being, and when it heard the news that Sukhothai had lost one day, he was so frightened that he hurriedly sent people to express his willingness to help help counter the rebellion.

Huang Zhiting was easy to speak, and immediately accepted the property sent by Phitsanulok's Mansion, and by the way, more than 2,000 people.

In northern Siam, the Jinghua coalition army left 12,000 garrisons to defend the area, while the rest of the army marched south, heading straight for Ayutthaya, intending to stabilize the situation in Ayutthaya before considering whether to move east or south—leaving two rebels, one in the east and one further south on the Malay Peninsula.

When Huang Zhiting's army arrived in Ayutthaya, he learned that Ruan Huang had simply put the Siamese king Maha Tanmaroja under complete house arrest as a precaution when the situation was at its most tense before, and now Ayutthaya has been under martial law for more than two months, and the situation is very serious.

After considering this, Huang Zhiting deliberately asked Tanmaroja to hold a great pilgrimage and stood on the tower of the palace to greet the people - of course, the wolf soldiers were always with them to "protect" him from any inappropriate actions.

This move calmed the people's hearts a little, and Huang Zhiting and others held a meeting overnight to discuss the next direction of counterinsurgency, but everyone seemed to feel that Huang Zhiting's mental condition was not very good, and it seemed that ...... It's sleepy.

The result of the deliberations was accelerated: first south and then east, because according to information received by Nguyen Hoang, the rebels in the east seemed to have some contact with the Cambodians.

Next, just when everyone thought that Huang Zhiting would lead the southern expedition again, an accident happened: Huang Zhiting announced that Liu Xin was in charge of the southern expedition, and she herself stayed in Dacheng.

As the commander of the counterinsurgency, it was not surprising that she stayed in Dacheng, but she had always personally led the troops outside before, and this sudden change of style was easy to cause people to speculate.

However, just one day before Liu Xin's expedition, the reason why Huang Vice Dutong did not go out in person spread from unknown channels: she was pregnant.

The rumored statement is surprisingly unified: although Huang Deputy Dutong is in good health and does not feel too much discomfort, he has become very sleepy, so it is not suitable to go on the expedition.

The high-level officials of Jinghua in Ayutthaya congratulated their hostess one after another, and geared up to perform well in the next war.

Liu Xin's army set off south the next day, arrived at Luokun half a month later, and took only eleven days to break through the rebels' defense line and march to the rebels' lair on the southern front.

Seven days later, Gao Jing's fleet, which had been belatedly to escape the storm, finally arrived and bombarded the coastal city, while Liu Xin's army launched a surprise attack on the other side of the city.

On October 19, the rebellion in southern Siam was put down. According to the previous agreement, there was no need to station too many troops in these coastal areas in the south for the time being, so Liu Xin only left the garrison army and returned to the division.

However, the return to the division was fake, she did not return to Ayutthaya by land, but pretended to go north, in fact, she only walked a few dozen miles before leading the army to board Gao Jing's ship and go straight to the eastern coast of Siam to land.

After landing, Liu Xin's troops quickly marched eastward, and arrived at Angkor, an important eastern town captured by the Siamese from the Khmers (Cambodians) five days later.

The rebels of Angkor did not expect Liu Xin's arrival at all, so they only relied on a night raid siege launched by a garrison without a single night blindness, and the eastern city of Angkor changed hands overnight, and the Siam three-way rebels were completely wiped out.

When the news reached Ayutthaya, the Siamese people were completely crushed by the "bad news", in fact, they still do not have a strong national outlook, let alone a national outlook, so they ...... Since you are defeated, let it be disposed of.

After more than ten days, Liu Xin's army returned to Dacheng, and Huang Zhiting, who was rarely in good spirits, summoned the King of Siam, Maha Tanmaraja, on behalf of the Jinghua Group—yes, summoned!

Huang Zhiting's spirit may not be very good, so he didn't talk nonsense with Tanmaroja, and casually exchanged a few words, so he asked someone to send him a text to show and ask him to sign the treasure.

What was given to Maha Tammaroja was a treaty, which was basically an enhanced version of Annam's "Sixteen Articles of Jinghua".

This clause, which came to be known as the "Treaty of Huang Zhiting" or the "Jinghua Nineteen Articles", reads as follows:
