King Basaitong sat on the throne and looked gloomily at the group of civil and military forces below. He sighed in his heart, knowing that these people had been frightened by the powerful fleet of the Far East, and he could no longer expect them to come up with any ideas at this time.

So he set his eyes on a few Chinese officials he relied on the most, and said with a smile: "It is said that all the people in the Far East are also of Chinese descent, but I don't know if you can understand the Far East?" ”

An old man shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Although the Far East is our Chinese lineage, it is an overseas remnant, far away from the Central Plains for hundreds of years, but it is no different from overseas barbarians, and it is completely different from today's Great Ming Dynasty. Their armed forces were strong, their ships were strong, and even Hongyi and Franc were driven out of the South Seas by them. ”

Another middle-aged man said with anger on his face: "What kind of Chinese relics, it's just a group of overseas untouchables. claimed to be a descendant of the Song people, but he did not wear the clothes of the Han family, but forced his slaves to shave their hair and change clothes. I only know how to be brutal and murderous, and I don't know how to educate the people, so I slaughtered hundreds of miles in eastern Liaodong first, and the white bones were exposed in the wilderness, and there was no rooster crying for thousands of miles. After Kou Luzon, the bloody city of Francois was washed, and the city was slaughtered one after another when it entered the South Seas, killing people and killing people, and the corpses were piled up like mountains, which was outrageous.

The Celestial Empire sympathized with them and sent an angel to Liaodong to canonize their chieftain as the lord of the East China Sea. But the barbarians of the East China Sea were vulgar and unliterate, ignoring the grace of the Emperor Hao Hao of the Celestial Empire, and he had not been thanked for several years. Under his rule, he did not accept the hearts of scholars and did not respect the teachings of saints. Promoting pseudo-learning, bad imperial examinations, and slaughtering scholars, and treating the gentry harshly, which has never been seen in the ages. Merchants are merchants, heavy taxes are levied, and the people compete for profits, and the remnants of the people are in tears, and the sky is three feet high and endless. The barbarians of the East China Sea will not have the luck of a hundred years. ”

This person often went to Daming before returning to Siam from Daming, and what he said was actually the current Daming class, the general evaluation of Far Eastern companies. No matter what. As long as it reaches the mouths of these scholars, they can righteously reverse black and white. As long as they don't get used to anyone, they will inevitably die black, anyway, history is written by them, and most of the vigorous deeds in history are well documented. But there are many, and that's what it is, it all depends on how well the literati write.

When the Siamese ministers listened to the words of the two, they all looked frightened. It seems that these people in the Far East are really brutal and fierce, if they really want to get involved in Siam, the Ayutthaya Dynasty can only resist the invasion of the Far East with the strength of the country. Even if the Far East recedes, Siam will be reduced to rubble.

King Basaitong's heart was also quite frightened, and he frowned and said, "With the meaning of the two gentlemen." Could the Far East have any intention of getting involved in Siam? ”

The old man thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, the king, as far as I know, for at least a few years, the Far East will certainly have no intention of getting involved in Siam. The Far East swallowed the Nanyang Islands in one gulp, and it took at least three and five years, or ten or eight years at most, to completely digest them. This time the Far East came to the front, and it should not be the beginning of the war. ”

"The King. I also coincide with Zheng Lao. This time the Far Eastern fleet seems to be aggressive, but in fact it is nothing more than intimidation. If you really want to go to war. Why make such a big fanfare, you must want to force the king to sign the alliance under the city. ”

King Basaitong and the Siamese ministers were relieved when they heard their words. As long as it's not an invasion of Siam, the rest is easy to talk about. The middle-aged Chinese official, seeing their expressions, couldn't help but shake his head.

"The King. Although Siam could not shake the Far East, it was inevitable that it would sign an alliance under the city. But at this time, we must not be soft, the more this is the case, I am afraid that the Far East will be pushed even harder, and it will not be able to start a war lightly. The king personally led the elite of the whole country to send troops to Bangkok. As long as the Far East has no intention of going to war, we will pay much less when we sign an alliance with the Far East. ”

King Basaitong nodded, and he was also deeply convinced. He didn't even dare to think about the war with the Far East, he had many spies in Manila and Nanyang, and he knew very well what the Far East was doing in Nanyang and Luzon. If it annoys the Far East, the Mataram Sultanate is an example. But there is nothing wrong with showing force appropriately, and you can't let anyone slaughter them, and you can't make them feel that Siam is weak and bullied.

Thinking of this, he said with a solemn face: "I decided to gather soldiers and horses and send troops to Bangkok." Whether the two gentlemen can take the lead and be responsible for negotiating with the Far East depends on the two gentlemen whether they can survive the crisis this time. ”

King Basai Thong began to gather heavy elites, and even transferred back a large number of elite and war elephant troops from the western front of Burma, which was heavily defended in Burma, and gathered tens of thousands of elite troops and more than 1,000 war elephants in just a few days, and then advanced to Bangkok. Although it was murderous, King Basaitong and the Siamese ministers were sweating in their hearts.

Once the Far East does launch an offensive, Siam will still have to pay a heavy price even if it has a geographical advantage. Moreover, it is said that the Far Eastern sailors crisscrossed the ocean, and in the future, the Ayutthaya Dynasty of Siam will not be able to go to the sea, which will definitely have a significant impact on Siam's economy and trade.

They were most worried about Burma on the Western Front, which was fought from 1548 to 1810 in the long war between Siam and Burma from the mid-16th century to the early 19th century for land annexation, labor plunder, and political and economic superiority over Indochina. On April 7, 1767, the army of the Burmese king Mengti broke through the city of Ayutthaya. The Siamese king Agada was killed, the gold and silver treasures were plundered, 30,000 inhabitants were reduced to prisoners of war, and the Ayutthaya dynasty that had been destroyed for more than 400 years.

If the Ayutthaya dynasty and the powerful Far East start a war, Burma on the western front will definitely take the opportunity to send troops to Siam, and the Ayutthaya dynasty will surely fall into a state of destruction. Therefore, King Basaitong was also cautious, as long as the Far East had no intention of destroying Siam, even if he signed an alliance under the city.

The two Chinese officials left Ayutthaya ahead of schedule and traveled to Bangkok to meet with the Far East, mainly to test the true intentions of the Far East, and then report the situation to King Basethorn of Siam.

The old man's name was Zheng Tong, and the family had been in Siam for several generations, acting as an agent for the Siamese royal family's overseas trade. The middle-aged man is named Feng Tu, who also comes from a Chinese family living in Siam, he is currently a diplomat in the Ayutthaya Dynasty, although he lives overseas, he has always been interested in the Ming Dynasty, often sent envoys to the Ming Dynasty, and presided over the tributary trade of Siam over the years.

The two came all the way to Bangkok, and before they entered the city, they found a large number of Siamese people fleeing in panic. They were immediately shocked, could it be that the Far Eastern Army landed in Siam? They hurried to Bangkok, and when they arrived at the pier, they were also stunned by the scene of the sea in the distance. (To be continued......)
