Chapter 158: their respective layouts

Chapter 158: Each of them has their own layout

Beijing. Xishan Base Camp.

Vietnamese sandalwood occasionally sparks, and the quiet fragrance makes people feel calm.

Ma Chaoyang, deputy director of the Second Department of the General Intelligence Bureau, sat upright and was talking: "... This King Zheng is known as one of the 'Five Emperors of Siam'. His father Zheng Yong was a Guangdong person. After living in Siam, he married and had children. This was Zheng Xin. He lost his father in his early years, but was adopted by the Minister of Finance. After becoming an adult, Zheng Xin was ordained as a monk according to the customs. After three years of returning to secular life, he became the chief of the military and political officer of Dacheng... After Siam was conquered by Myanmar, Zheng Xin insisted on resisting and formed a rebel army dominated by Han and Siam people, expelled the Burmese army, liberated Siam, and then wiped out the separatist forces in various places and established the Thonburi Dynasty. Zheng Xinxiong was talented and made many wars with the Burmese people, expanded territory, recaptured Chiang Mai and other places, and even sent troops to occupy Cambodia and Laos, suppressed the Annan Nguyen Dynasty, making Siam the hegemon of the Indochina Peninsula again."

"This person is worthy of being a hero of a generation." Zheng Yu, opposite, nodded and took a sip of tea. "Even I long for it, I am very eager for it, no wonder the Siamese people are disappointed."

Chaoyang bowed slightly, "However, Zheng Xinchao had many diplomatic hardships. This man always cared about his hometown, took pride in Chinese, and went north with his friends many times. Unfortunately, the Qing Dynasty had always been prejudiced against Chinese people abroad, believing that most of them were remnants of the Ming Dynasty and were hostile to the Manchus, so he always ignored Zheng Xin and denounced him as a 'pirate'. However, Zheng Xin was also tenacious. Not only did he ask for bans many times and pay tribute to the square goods, he also sent a tribute fleet to present a large number of Siamese ivory, which finally made Qianlong smile, recognized his status as the King of Siam, and granted his title."

"Then Zheng Xin has been enthroned and is so heroic, and he has made great contributions to the world, so why did he die suddenly?"

"This Zheng Xin is indeed powerful, but he also made many mistakes." Ma Chaoyang said, "This man was born in a humble and was a Chinese people. After taking power, he wiped out the separatist forces in various places, which made many traditional Siamese nobles look at him and regard them as aliens. In this way, Zheng Xin naturally did not trust these people. In addition, his blood-close relationships are close, and he particularly valued Chinese people and promoted the strategy of attracting Chinese immigrants. Especially the generation of his hometown Chaozhou, the Chinese people traveled across the ocean to Siam, jumped into a 'royal family', and took over the power in Siam, which made many locals dislike it."

"It seems like it's a sect, a rebellion, or something like that..."

"Your Majesty said," said Ma Chaoyang, "Zheng Xin also made a mistake, which was to rectify Buddhism. Siam is a Buddhist country, and the collusion between Buddhist forces and secular forces is already very deep. This man was very cautious in power, and with suspicion, there were some Buddhist forces in Siam at that time, which led to him eliminating these religious forces, and he began to rectify and clean up Buddhists, which made him lose a lot of points among the people of Siam. In addition, he exempted the Chinese people from capitol tax and gave them heavy use.

, and suspicious of the nobles, and they almost met, all the classes of Siam began to feel resentment. After years of war, the people of Siam were exhausted and the violence in various places continued. During the riots in Cambodia, the Cambodian king established by Zheng Xin was killed, and the Annan Dynasty took the opportunity to intervene. As the local overlord, Zheng Xin naturally refused to rely on it. He immediately sent 200,000 troops to lead the attack by his little Piye Chokri. However, soon there was a rebellion in Siam. Zheng Xin immediately ordered his general Piye Sanka to lead the rebellion."

"As a result, Sanka launched a mutiny in turn, arrested Zheng Xin, and forced him to become a monk." Ma Chaoyang said, "But the so-called mantis stalks the cicada and oriole behind him, the one who really hides the deepest is the Piyechokri. He is on the front line of Cambodia. He is not sure why he just confronts the Annan people, and the news is particularly well-informed. He quickly made a lightning standstill with the Annan people and leads troops back to Beijing, defeating Sanka."

"This matter sounds a bit like the Honnoji Incident in Japan... But Kerry is a powerful figure." Zheng Yu touched his chin, "You continue..."

"It's... at this point, the young man was amazing. Under the instigation of the nobles and subordinates, Kerry decided to execute Zheng Xin. Because the other party was the king, he adopted a method that did not shed blood: hit the back of the head with a sandalwood stick. Zheng Xin was only forty-eight years old when he died. Then, Kerry called the king, the so-called Rama I, and moved the capital from Thonburi to Bangkok on the other side, establishing the Bangkok dynasty that has lasted to this day."

"However, as the saying goes, being a thief is guilty, but what Kerry is most worried about is that the Qing Dynasty who enthroned Zheng Xin would interfere, so he immediately sent an envoy to Beijing to request enthronement." Ma Chaoyang paused, "This man is also a bachelor, and he actually called himself Zheng Xin's son, named 'Zheng Hua', saying that his son inherited his father's business."

Zheng Yu almost spit out a sip of tea, and was stunned for a long time before he took a breath: "It's a pity that this person can think of it and still do it. This person can indeed be considered ambition. He endured it for decades in front of Zheng Xin, and reached the point of becoming king, and he could continue to endure it."

"It's not just that." Ma Chaoyang said, "His son calls himself Zheng Fo, his grandson calls himself Zheng Fu, and his great-grandson calls himself Zheng Ming. Even the coins are minted like 'Zheng Ming Tongbao', and they do a full set of operas. Even the emperor's private seal is 'Zheng Ming', so maybe they even believe it in the end."

"This matter changed when the fifth generation king was King. The Qing Dynasty's strong and middle-aged man was exposed in front of the strong ships and cannons of the great powers. The fifth generation's king held the big legs of the British, so there was no need to fool the Qing Dynasty anymore. So he didn't call the Chinese name to the outside world, but directly called Zhulalonggong." Ma Chaoyang smiled, "However, these Siamese people pretended to be used to being grandsons. I don't know if it was to prevent it, this person left a Chinese name, called Zheng Long."

"What do you say now about this Sixth King?"

"Call Zheng Bao." Ma Chaoyang said, "The General Intelligence Bureau judged that the Siam military government could not withstand this time, and in the end, it might have to move the king out as a shield to keep the last little fig leaf. Maybe this person would even claim to be Chinese to get close."

Yu nodded, "It seems that this Thai man pretends to be a grandson, and it is difficult for them to act in the whole set. Since that's the case, we will also act."

"If you send a rumor, you will say that the descendants of King Zheng have been brought back." Zheng Yu smiled, "Sin Zheng, since King Zheng is the Five Emperors of Siam, has expelled foreign invaders, unified the country, and opened up territory, but he died under the betrayal of his childhood and was executed by rats. This matter sounds like heaven is not tolerated. Does Zheng Xin have descendants?"

"All were executed."

"I say there is, if I have it." Zheng Yu shook his head, "Just say that he has a posthumous son and his loyal subordinates to the Zheng family in Chaozhou... Choose a Chaozhou person from the bureau, or see who can be used by the Zheng family in Chaozhou... By the way, the General Intelligence Bureau has trained a group of Siamese Chinese refugees? See if there are any reliable, smart, and capable people, let him be a descendant of Zheng Xin."

"Your Majesty, why bother to seek far away?"

As soon as Ma Chaoyang spoke, Zheng Yu was slightly stunned.

"You are also surnamed Zheng." Ma Chaoyang's eyes drooped slightly, "The late emperor was originally an orphan, and his origin... Zheng Xin..."

"Travel east," Zheng Yu looked at the spy chief, and his tone was a little weird, "I don't have the habit of recognizing my ancestors yet."

"Your Majesty, I dare not." Ma Chaoyang's expression remained unchanged. "I mean, since it was a rumor, it was something that was unclear. The more vague the better. Everyone knows that His Majesty the Chinese Emperor's surname is Zheng, and he comes from the southwest. The land of Longxing Annan is also a neighboring country in northeastern Siam. Now Luang Prabang, which originally belonged to Siam, all the Shangliao and Xialiao belong to our empire."

"Mr. Zheng, this story can be interpreted at will." Ma Chaoyang said, "As long as someone who is interested in spreading it, you will become Queen. As for the authenticity of this matter, what is the rumor... you don't have to pay attention to it. As for the Siam Chinese who have been trained in the bureau at that time, it's all your words."

Zheng Yu touched his chin and said nothing, looking at Ma Chaoyang's gaze became more and more interesting.

Soon, with the military boots and bayonets of the Imperial Chinese Defense Forces, through the intelligence network of the General Intelligence Agency and the propaganda of a large number of Siamese Chinese refugees who fled earlier, Emperor Zheng, the most prominent of the "Five Emperors of Siamese", was faintly linked to the founding emperor Zheng Ying of China.

The founding emperor of Zheng Xin, who unified the country and expelled the invaders, originated from the people and was very legendary. The Siamese people have always regarded it as a hero in the world. Gradually, the Siamese people couldn't figure out which Emperor Zheng was. As the propaganda became "the descendants of King Zheng Xin were fought back" and "the descendants of the usurpation of power will have to pay the blood debts and blood."

In recent years, the Siam military government has expanded its military preparations, and has persecuted many Chinese who have lived in Siam for many years, and introduced Western Christianity, which has already made many Siam civilians deeply dissatisfied. Now that the country hastily provoked China, and has lost its territory, it is even more excited. Now that he heard that the descendants of King Zheng have fought back, he immediately became interested.

The Chinese army took the Siamese Chinese who had fled Siam and trained by the General Intelligence Bureau as the pioneer and acted as a ranger before the army. Wherever they went, a craze of "welcoming the descendants of the King of Zheng" was set off. Many enthusiastic Siamese young men even took the initiative to follow the Chinese army and actively led the way to "drive the front of the King of Zheng."

Wherever the Chinese army went, it was naturally a scene of a sautum. Some local security forces and even governments in Siam, facing the situation of "Restoration of the Kingdom of King Aaron", finally chose to "not get involved". In short, this is a matter between the two generations of Siam kings, so why bother to get involved? Today's kings are not the grandsons of King Aaron. The British want to be powerful and let them fight. Let us touch the Chinese, or the machine guns and cannons of King Aaron, so I would like to thank Bumin.

In this way, after the essence of the Siam army was completely destroyed, the Chinese army went south by an edict, and a large number of local Siam forces surrendered without fighting. The speed of the "Zheng Wang" army advanced beyond the speed of World War II swept across the mountain at the Malay Peninsula.

The busy Siam military government hurriedly mobilized the remaining main forces to head north, but at this time, they did not know that a powerful Marine Corps was already preparing to board the ship in Zhanjiang and the coastal defense.

Target: Bangkok.

Stuttgart. German Palace.

There was a bang of woodcutting sound in the forest farm.

A strong man was wielding an axe and chopping the walnut tree.

Another tree was cut down, and the strong man took the towel handed over by the waiter and wiped it. He turned his head and handed the axe to a middle-aged officer behind him: "Crown Prince, come and try it?"

Major General of the German Imperial Army and Crown Prince of Bavaria Ruprecht Maria Leopold Ferdinand respectfully took the axe, weighed it, chose a walnut tree, looked it up, set off the shelves and chopped it up.

“Not bad, very good.”

After Ruprecht also cut down a walnut tree, Emperor William II smiled and patted the beloved general's shoulder, allowing the waiter to take over the axe.

"Crown Prince, your strength, angle, and speed are already perfect." The German Emperor said with a smile, "However, cutting down trees is a very profound science, and each tree has its own soul..."

Crown Prince Ruprecht knew that the emperor who was fond of logging was eccentric, and just listened respectfully.

"Okay, Crown Prince, let's run together and relax." The German Emperor led Ruprecht to the stable. The waiter had already prepared two batches of horses, and the Prussian Hussars saluted respectfully on the horse.

Prince Ruprecht rolled over his horse and followed the German Emperor to speed up, followed by the guards cavalry closely following him.

"Crown Prince, I mean to ask you to visit Romania this time." After running for a while, the German Emperor was relieved and moved to a slow rein. "Russia is already in danger. Poor Nicki may even become a prisoner of the Chinese. What an irony...

Prince Ruprecht knew that he just needed to listen carefully.

"The crown prince, Romania, is not just about producing livestock." The German emperor looked at the mountains in the distance, and his voice showed a sense of fascination. "More than half a century ago, it was the earliest oil field in Europe. Two years ago, Deutsche Petroleum Corporation controlled one-third of their oil field resources, while the rest were divided up by the Chinese, British and Americans."

"Oil is a magical substance, not just lighting and heating. It can make warships run faster, can be used to drive cars, can make planes and airships fly in the air, and the Chinese even invented an armored chariot that can cross-country for a long distance." The German Emperor's voice a little aggravated, "Germany needs these weapons, Germany also needs oil in the name of God. I need Romania to stand on the side of Germany and master Romania, and I hold the key to European hegemony."

Crown Prince Ruprecht nodded seriously.

"Crown Prince, how are you going to take action on your mission?" The German Emperor pondered for a moment and asked.

"Dear Your Majesty, your wisdom is the most precious wealth of Germany." Crown Prince Ruprecht bowed slightly, "In the following view, except Germany and Austria, only Russia and Britain and France, which can control Romania. As for their former sect leader, Turkey, it is difficult to protect itself, and it can only maintain loose unification with the support of Germany."

"After this war, Russia's prestige was ruined, and Romania's dependence on Russia will also change after the Russian-Turkey War. And Britain and France, frankly speaking, as long as Germany holds Turkey firmly in its hands, the Bosphorus Strait is a solid door bolt that can keep Britain and France firmly outside the door." Ruprecht said confidently, "The Romanians can only rely on Germany. Germany can provide them with everything: industrial products, capital, military protection, diplomatic protection, markets, and the sincere friendship between the Frankians (German Emperor's lineage) and the Tuwabian-Sigmaringen branch (Romanian King's lineage) within the Hohenzollern royal family."

"Well said, the crown prince." The German emperor nodded with satisfaction, "But don't underestimate your opponent."

"Carol I, my distant relative, is not a good-looking lamp." The German Emperor smiled, "He is used to wandering between the cracks of several major countries and making some benefits."

"This time I entrusted you to Romania to express my firm support for him and make him believe that the whole of Germany was standing behind him and supporting their demands for justice." The German Emperor took a deep breath, "Bisarabia has always been the sacred territory of the Moldovans. It was a terrible mistake for Russia to occupy it after the Russian-Turkish war. In the name of European arbitrators, I support the Romanians to make their demands for their territory."

"When diplomatic rhetoric cannot solve the problem, the Romanians have to ride on war horses and wield their sabers to show their bravery." The German Emperor smiled, "I will provide them with what they need - cannons, rifles, ammunition, loans, and what I will harvest will be Romania, which is king of Hohenzollern, firmly standing on the side of Germany. And Germany will also harvest their best trophy - endless oil that makes the whole of Europe crazy about jealousy."

“It’s an inning.”

Beijing, Xishan Base Camp.

Zheng Yu fell into a chess piece, looking leisurely: "A big game."

Qin Mingyue, assistant director of the Bureau of Investigation, looked at the person opposite, resisted the urge to laugh, and said as he followed the words: "Yes, it's very big, I know."

Zheng Yu was not angry either: "I knew it was a waste of time to tell you about this... You guys have long hair and short knowledge."

Qin Mingyue burst into laughter: "Then you still say..."

She responded casually, as if she was afraid that Zheng Yu would be embarrassed, so she hurriedly said, "Okay, then you can tell me what kind of magic is this."

"Big? Is it considered a big deal to determine the situation in Asia and the destiny of the empire in the next hundred years?" Zheng Yu smiled and clicked a single point, and immediately cut off a big dragon in Qin Mingyue, "You have lost..."

Qin Mingyue pursed her lips and laughed: "Yes, you are amazing. Who else in the world can beat you... The fact that you won a country in that game is getting more and more amazing now... Everyone says you have magical means."

Zheng Yu looked at the girl with a smile, and was in a surprisingly good mood. He said modestly: "At the level, there is a little bit of a magical method... this... really doesn't have it."
