    Funan and Zhenla are fighting inextricably, and no one can completely win.  At this time, both sides thought of Sui who was still watching the show, and they attracted Sui to participate in the battle.

    But at this time, Huang Mingcong didn't have the time to deal with them. He was preparing to unify the Southeast Asian countries.

    In December of the fourth year of Daye, at Tiannan Port in Rinan County, Huang Mingcong convened more than ten countries including Panpan, Dandan, Langyaxiu, Gandhari, Suali, Chitu, and Srivijaya to establish the Nanyang Alliance.  He called on all countries not to attack each other and to unite and worship the Sui Dynasty as their suzerain.

    Originally, the Sui Dynasty did not manage the oceans and had limited influence on the Southeast Asian countries.  At most, everyone knew that there was a huge country in the north called Sui, but that was all.  But this time was unusual. The Sui Dynasty easily sent out troops and defeated the most powerful Funan Kingdom in the South Sea. The Sui Dynasty's warships circled around the various countries, and the countless large ships were frightening to see.

    Everyone knows that things have changed in Nanyang.

    "For these small countries, it doesn't make sense to care too much about who is the vassal country. They have to find a backer anyway, so it is better to find someone more powerful.  Originally, the countries were most afraid of being invaded by the Sui Dynasty, but this offensive and defensive alliance freed them from such worries, so whoever didn't join quickly rushed to embrace the Sui Dynasty's father's lap.

    So the countries on the Malay Peninsula and the Nanyang Islands were attacked in one fell swoop. When Funan Kingdom went back to reorganize its sphere of influence, it discovered that none of its former subordinates were gone.

    This offensive and defensive alliance is not just about war, the most important thing is business.  The Sui Dynasty could enjoy the most-favored-nation status in all countries, with tariffs reduced to the lowest; and it also enclosed more than a dozen pieces of land from various countries as seaports. These would be the strongholds for the future exploration of Southeast Asia; the Sui Dynasty successfully occupied the Singapore area in later generations and controlled  The eastern outlet of the Strait of Malacca; the Sui Dynasty could station troops in various countries, and each country would bear the cost of garrisoning; the grain tribute paid by various countries to the Sui Dynasty every year ranged from tens of thousands of stones to hundreds of thousands of stones, and the remaining spices and jewelry were countless.  ¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤

    For the Sui Dynasty, there were too few people to immigrate to Nanyang, which made the land in Nanyang very useless. Although the territory was vast, Huang Mingcong had no one.

    Therefore, Huang Mingcong did not focus on occupying land from the beginning, but controlled a place by controlling a country and let these countries work for them.

    The signing of this treaty greatly increased the binding force of the Sui Dynasty on the Southeast Asian countries, and these countries truly became vassal states of the Sui Dynasty.  Of course, Yang Guang, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, knew none of this.  Luoyang traveled thousands of miles south of the world, and imperial decrees came and went for more than half a year. Yang Guang could not even control the prefectures and counties in Lingnan, let alone Rinan further south and Nanyang further south.

    After the signing of the Treaty of Tiannan Port, in order to strengthen his control over the Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sumatra and other places, Huang Mingcong divided the original Ocean Fleet into two. The main force was the Nanyang Fleet, with Tiannan Port and Puluo Zhong (  Hongtai Port (Singapore Port) on Singapore Island) is the home port.  Among them, Kangtai Port commemorates Kangtai, the first Soochow general to arrive here in history.

    The Nanyang Fleet is a military-commercial fleet, ranging from conquering other countries, overseas trade, and foreign affairs exchanges to combating piracy and appeasing local areas, all under the jurisdiction of the Nanyang Fleet.

    ¡°What supports this huge maritime empire behind the Nanyang Fleet is the business empire composed of nearly a thousand sea ships owned by Huang Mingyuan for more than ten years.  And this number continues to grow. According to Huang Mingyuan, your goal is "sea coachmen."

    The remaining fleet was reorganized into the East China Sea Fleet and stayed in Zhoushan and Hu Douzhou to be responsible for northern trade.

    As the Sui Dynasty expanded its territory in Nanyang, its strength also developed rapidly. By the ninth year of the Sui Dynasty, Huang Mingcong had an army of more than 56,000 people, a navy of more than 600 medium and large ships, and more than 100,000 troops.  Controlling more than 20 seaports in Southeast Asia, the trade volume reached one million yuan.

    After integrating the Nanyang countries, Huang Mingcong had time to deal with Funan and Zhenla.

    In fact, since the Mekong Delta area in Funan was ceded, Huang Mingcong has basically had no interest in land in the two countries.  What is accurate is that Huang Mingyuan has no interest in them. Laos, Cambodia and other places are the least developed areas in later generations. Soon the mineral deposits cannot be developed due to various reasons. What is the purpose of grabbing so much land here?

    It¡¯s a pity that there are two evil neighbors here. Although Huang Mingcong has no interest in them, he still has to prevent the two countries from biting the Sui Dynasty.

    The dog takes one bite and it penetrates into the bone for three points.

    Huang Mingcong deliberately ignored the two sides' attempts to persuade him to fight, saying that it did not involve his own country.  The Funan Kingdom was happy that there was no restriction, but the Zhenla Kingdom was frightened.

    After the left army of Funan State retreated from Champasak, their offensive and defensive trends were different.Regarding Zhenla, Funan Kingdom was at a disadvantage.

    The two countries in stalemate could not stand this kind of protracted war. In May of the fifth year of Daye, the Battle of Stung Treng broke out.  In order to achieve victory, both sides tried their best and invested nearly 100,000 troops in total.

    The two armies were in a stalemate in Stung Treng for more than three months. Finally, the Chen La army crossed the Mekong River and entered the back of the Funan army from Siam Bo. The Stung Treng defense line was broken.  The Funan Army suffered heavy losses, with more than 40,000 casualties.

    Although the Zhenla Army won the battle, they also lost more than 30,000 people.  Later, he was ambushed by the Funan Army in Sregoki, and the famous general of the Zhenla Army, Lha Xuanmei, died in the battle.

    At this time, the Zhenla army was unable to fight anymore.

    Seeing that the time was right, in November of the fifth year of Daye, Huang Mingcong, in the name of the Nanyang Alliance, took more than ten small countries in Nanyang and sent people to Funan and Zhenla for mediation.  At this time, the two countries, which have been fighting for more than a year, have lost their minds and paid insufficient attention to the outside world.  When the two countries look back, they will no longer be in this Nanyang Alliance.

    Both countries were determined to stop the war at this time, and the two sides, which had suffered heavy losses, no longer had the energy to compete, and finally had to accept the mediation of the Sui Dynasty.

    In January of the sixth year of Daye, the two parties signed a contract in Chiba. Funan Kingdom gave up half of Mondulkiri, Preah Vihear and the area north of Stung Treng. Even Ubon Ratchathani was gained and lost.

    So far, Funan Kingdom has suffered another heavy blow, and it no longer has the momentum it had as the largest country in Nanyang.

    At this time, the defeated Funan Kingdom learned from the painful experience and plunged into the arms of the Sui Dynasty.  In the future, the Zhenla Kingdom may become even more powerful, and they will have to rely on the Great Sui Dynasty to defend themselves against attacks from the Zhenla Kingdom.

    The losses of the Zhenla Kingdom were no less than those of the Funan Kingdom, and they did not have as strong a foundation as the other party. Even if they occupied a large area of ??territory, if they wanted to successfully digest it, it would still take 5,678 years, but the Sui Dynasty and Funan might not give Zhenla  country at this time.

    In the next two years, most of the Funan Kingdom, Chenla Kingdom, Baektu Kingdom, Thai Ban Kingdom, and Queen Kingdom joined the "Tiannan Port Treaty". At this point, the Tiannan System of the Nanyang Era was formally formed.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
