Zhao Bing clearly knew that Qiongzhou could not withstand the Yuan Dynasty's heavy blow. Even if it could block this time, there would be another time, which would make it difficult for Qiongzhou to have time to hide its strength and keep a low profile. The best way is to lead the water out of the water and divert Kublai Khan's sight from himself. Now there are many candidates for "unlucky guys", including Haidu in the northwest, Japan in the Far East, Goryeo, Annan and Chameng beside him, etc.

However, although the sea was so boring, it was suppressed by Boyan, who was in charge of Shangdu. Japan gained the upper hand in a fight with Kublai Khan, and thus increased its confidence. The killing envoy refused to surrender, and had already burned the anger that he stirred up and did not need to burn it anymore. Although Goryeo was also bullied by the Mongols, his head was too weak and his leader was too cowardly. He did not dare to explode the thorn without external assistance.

So Zhao Bing could only focus on two neighboring Annan and Chameng, which is today's Vietnam, so that they could act as shields. One, if Kublai Khan wanted to conquer the two countries, he would definitely dispatch troops from Jiangnan nearby to greatly alleviate the pressure he was under; the other, as he knew, although the national strength of these two countries was weak, they were famous hob meat. If they were beaten, they would give in. If you leave, I would continue to torture with you.

In addition, although the Han and Tang Dynasties have always been counties under the jurisdiction of dynasties in the Central Plains, they were not good people. After the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Central Plains fell into a chaotic period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. The Wu family of Vietnam took the opportunity to defeat the army of the Southern Han Dynasty and proclaimed themselves kings, and since then they broke away from China's rule. However, at the beginning of independence, the regime was still in turmoil. Various warlords occupied one side and fought each other, until the general Li Gongyun established the Li Dynasty, established the capital Shenglong, and claimed to be the emperor. At this time, the Song Dynasty also completed unification through war.

After the establishment of the Li Dynasty, relying on absorbing highly achieved political, economic and cultural achievements in China, and implementing administrative system reforms, which improved Vietnam's social productivity and consolidated feudal rule. It also began to continue to implement the national policy of foreign aggression and expansion. Zhao Bing's expansion process lasted through ancient and modern times to today. It can be said that it has been a record of history for thousands of years. Just as the Vietnamese themselves claimed that "expanding territory and inheriting it from generation to generation", it has become a headache for the evil neighbor to this day.

Of course, Vietnam also knew its strength, so it also paid great attention to strategy in its expansion. China to the north was a big country. Knowing that it was not strong enough, it accepted China's canonization and fulfilled its obligation to pay tribute. Therefore, in the official history of China, the Vietnamese king was never recognized as the "emperor", but only called him the "Crown Prince". In the year of Longxing of the Song Dynasty, he was named King of Annan, and changed the country's name to Jiaozhi to Annan to begin here.

In view of this, although the Vietnamese rulers were drooling at the northern land, if they blatantly launched a large number of troops to invade and directly confront China, it was obviously the Ba snake swallowing the elephant and was unable to do anything. Therefore, it would steal it by making unreasonable trouble, raiding, strife, and stolen small pieces; it often seized first, creating a fait accompli.

Vietnam was always a county in China in the Han and Tang dynasties. The Song Dynasty was also very troubled by the separatist rule of Jiaozhou. It was also a pity that he tried to reunify Vietnam and find opportunities to attack Vietnam. Emperor Taizong and Emperor Shenzong used military troops on a large scale twice, with the goal of unifying Vietnam. Unfortunately, the Jiaozhi separatist rule was too strong and the Song army was weak, which failed, which eventually led to Vietnam's permanent separation from China.

The emperors of the Song Dynasty who regarded themselves as "the superior country" were often blindly arrogant. When they argued with the local chieftain Lingsheng, they believed that China was already "so vast, why bother to mobilize the people and be greedy for useless places?!" So in the name of being kind and being soft and far away, they actually gave the border of the country the leader as they pleased, and were complacent, saying that "I will be obedient to my far-reaching and my literary virtues are there, so why should I fight against the five streams?" In modern Zhao Bing's opinion, what is this not a bunch of fools!

The Vietnamese rulers understood the Chinese emperor's mentality of being so happy and loving to listen to sweet words. They often swear to show loyalty in their tribute statements, but behind their backs, they attacked the borders and violated the borders. In short, the Vietnamese Li Dynasty used the rulings of the Song Dynasty to poison the consciousness of corrupt scholars, and made mistakes that were unclear about border issues and insufficient attention. They gradually advanced to the north and occupied the states, even if they were small in villages and villages. By the end of the Li Dynasty, the border in the northeast had been pushed to a roughly equivalent to the current China-Vietnam border.

When eroding Chinese land, Vietnam also expanded southward. Early before its independence, an ancient civilization country, Champa Pura, appeared in central and southern Vietnam, which also independent from China. If the feudal lords in the north were frightened by each other's strength and dared not be too arrogant, then the weak Champa in the south was like a tiger coming out of the trunk and was rampant. Emperors of the Li Dynasty all had never forgotten the act of "selection and occupation", either sent troops to "strike" or "individually" to annex Champa from Hengshan to Shikanjiang.

At this time, the Li Dynasty, like the Southern Song Dynasty, was trapped in political accidents, and the levies were harsh and natural disasters were repeated for years. The people were living in poverty, and the social order was in turmoil. The great power was gradually seized by the relatives of the Chen family, entering the Chen Dynasty era. They learned the lessons that Wu, Ding, Li, and Li were all usurped by powerful ministers in the previous dynasty, and implemented the system of co-governance of the Emperor and the Emperor, and as a customization of the Chen Dynasty, the emperor lived in Shenglong, and the Emperor lived in Tianchang Mansion in the south.

After the establishment of the Chen Dynasty, the banner of expansionism was raised high, and the northern expedition was launched, preparing to expand the territory of the Great Yue Empire, a huge threat came from the far north, and caught the Vietnamese expansionists who had always been able to invade others. The emperors of the Chen Dynasty had too much time to observe and judge. In the first year of Jingding of the Southern Song Dynasty, two Mongolian envoys came to Hanoi to "submit". They conveyed the words of the Marshal of Yunnan and asked the Chen Dynasty to allow the Mongolian army to "pass through Annan Bianyi, and wanted to leave Yong and Gui, and to join forces in Hubei to conquer the Song Dynasty."

How could Chen Taizong, who had just won Cheng in the war between the Song Dynasty and Champa, endured the arrogance of the Mongols? He withdrew the envoy, threw it into prison, and then informed the whole country that the people were equipped with weapons and prepared to resist the enemy. As a result, he was beaten up by the Mongolian general Wuliang Hetai. It took only nine days for the Li Dynasty to ask for it to be attached. Kublai Khan "so named Guangbing the King of Annan", awarded "Tiger Talisman National Seal" and gave gifts such as brocade. He also believed that since Vietnam had surrendered, he should send official positions according to the convention, so he appointed Annan Dalu Hachi to Vietnam to inspect the national affairs and collect tributes.

Over the past ten years, although Kublai Khan devoted all his efforts to destroy the Song Dynasty, he continued to put high pressure on Vietnam and his tone gradually became tough. During this period, Yuan Dynasty envoys continued to come to Vietnam. This person regarded himself as a "high-ranking person", was arrogant, threatened and tempted, and made explicit threats. Vietnam felt the tension and complexity of the struggle. The Chen Dynasty wanted to safeguard national sovereignty and national honor, but also avoided open falls with the Yuan Dynasty, and tried to delay and avoid war.

Therefore, the Chen Dynasty made some concessions, agreed to once every three years, accepted the Yuan Dynasty's canonization as "King of Annan", and even allowed Daluhachi to enter Hanoi for a time, but for the demands that damage sovereignty and national system, such as the king entering the court, the children entering the court, the tribute wise men and technicians, they either politely refused or temporarily agreed, but never fulfilled it. For the arrogant and unreasonable envoys of the Yuan Dynasty, the Chen Dynasty sometimes took demonstrations or house arrest for a period of time to give warnings. It is said that "they fought a witty and flexible battle with the envoys and officials sent by the Yuan Dynasty to safeguard the dignity of the nation..."

Zhao Bing was originally not interested in these two neighbors, and could not even understand the current situation of the two countries. He was unable to take care of his life and death, but when he was in the most difficult time, Chen Yizhong kept urging the empress dowager to go to Cham City, which attracted his attention and took the opportunity to escape from danger. Later, when he arrived in Qiongzhou, the difficulty he faced was the shortage of food. While trying to reclaim wasteland to seek self-sufficiency, he could only supplement the shortage through trade, and Annan and Cham City, which were close to him, became the choice.

At the same time, in order to monitor Chen Yizhong's affairs spies fled to Cham City. While they kept sending back information about him, they also sent the information they knew about the two countries to their desks. This also allowed Zhao Bing to obtain first-hand information in time and provided a reference for himself to understand the situation in the two countries.

According to the spy, as early as the second year of Chen Yizhong's experience of leading the people to travel to the city of Chameng, Annan Emperor Chen Guangbing died in Tianchang Mansion. In October of the following year, the first year of Xiangxing after Zhao Bing ascended the throne, Annan Emperor Chen Huang gave way to the crown prince Chen Feng according to the custom of the Chen Dynasty, and Chen Huang went to Tianchang to serve as the emperor. However, after receiving tributes for so many years, the Mongols could not understand the truth about Annan's "double emperor system". They thought that Chen Rixuan would ascend the throne to the throne after Chen Guangbing's death, so they sent envoys to Annan to question the crime.

The Yuan envoy Chai Chun not only called himself an angel of the country, but was also arrogant and rude. He called Xiaoyao to blame Chen Rixuan for not practicing the "six things" and "reliance without asking for an order", and declared that the Yuan court did not recognize him as the King of Annan and only called him the crown prince. He replied that Chen Rixuan went to Dayuan Capital to explain to the emperor, "If you cannot pay your respects, you will save money to replace him, and you will use two pearls to replace him, and you will use two wise men, skills, children, and craftsmen to replace him, so that you can replace him." If you refuse, you will have to meet him.

The Yuan Dynasty emperor's letters were already full of gunpowder, but Chen Riyi refused to go north to pay homage with various excuses such as "dwelling in mourning", "having illness", and "far roads". He used the ability of "rooster meat" to evade and refuse to humiliate him. Most of the imperial courts could not bear the ability of "rooster meat" to Chen Huang, Chen Huang and his son. The Privy Council proposed to advance to Vietnam to pursue the crime of "summoning the court to the Chen Dynasty's monarch "too many to summon the court". At the same time, it began to establish the Annan Xuanwei Office, preparing to fight against Annan.

When Annan and the Yuan Dynasty were in trouble, there were also clouds in Champa. Originally, King Indra VI of Champa King was willing to get along with the Yuan Dynasty, but the hardliners represented by Prince Halikichi refused the Yuan court's request to "professional court" and "set up a province" and seized the envoy. Kublai Khan wanted to threaten to use troops to Champa King on the grounds that the King of Champa was imprisoned by the Yuan Dynasty envoys.

Even with these two vassal states that had long been separated from him, Zhao Bing naturally had no interest or ability to help them, but he had been paying attention to the changes in the situation. Whether it was known in the past or the current situation, he felt that Kublai Khan had already been unstoppable to them, and his victory in the Song war had already made him lose his calmness.

Two years ago, Kublai Khan added the Chinese name "Da Yuan" on the basis of the Great Mongolian Kingdom's name, which shows that he not only wanted to transform the regional Mongolian regime into a feudal national regime, but also regarded himself as the orthodox successor of the feudal dynasty in China, and successfully combined the pioneering and enterprising eagle nature of the Great Khan and the Han emperor's vanity abroad. In this way, he could just as the orthodox heir of the Central Plains, and justify the overseas robbery, because this was also found in ancient times, not a trick he had made.

After completing the war to destroy the Song Dynasty, Kublai Khan completed China's unprecedented unification, and this success further ignited the conquest of the Mongolian monarch. As the Mongolian communist and the Chinese emperor, Kublai Khan not only had the passion of conquering the Golden Family, but also added to the admiration of the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties, and was eager to spread the pride of the great emperor's grace to the vast world to the world! Zhao Bing thought that the title of the Lord of the Four Seas could no longer satisfy his vanity. If he had set up a spaceship for him, he would probably have the intention to unify the universe...

On one hand, he was ambitious and wanted to swallow the world, and on the other hand, he was a bad neighbor who was even more slippery than a loach. In Zhao Bing's heart, he had no good impression of them. He hoped that they would fight to the death and could get some benefits from it. But he knew that he had killed Zhang Hongfan's brothers in Yashan and killed Pu Shougeng in Quanzhou. This was equivalent to chopping Kublai Khan's hand and smashing his piggy bank. Of course, he couldn't swallow this and he must settle the score with him.

Cham City and Annan, plus himself, there will be three wars to fight in the southeast direction. Zhao Bing most hopes that Kublai Khan will fight Annan and Chancheng first, and as he knows that the Yuan Dynasty won first and then lost, and the losses were very heavy, so he would not have the energy to cause trouble for himself; the second is that the three parties started war at the same time, so that the Yuan court would be dispersed and his pressure would be greatly reduced. As long as he had to deal with the whole way, he would be fully confident of defeating the Qiongzhou defense battle; and the worst result was that Kublai Khan first fought with him and then dealt with those two, so he would be the sucker.
