After Qin Shihuang annexed the six countries and unified the Central Plains, he continued to send troops to conquer Lingnan and Baiyue, and annexed Lingnan in 2 14 BC. After the collapse of the Qin Empire in 207 BC, Zhao Tuo, a former general of the Qin Dynasty, took the opportunity to occupy Lingnan. In 204 BC, Nanyue State was established with Panyu as its capital.
1 165438 BC, Emperor Wu of China sent troops to wipe out the "Nanyue State" and set up a "toe-crossing department" in it, which was divided into nine counties. Among them, Jiaotuo, Jiuzhen and Rinan counties are equivalent to the northern and central and northern parts of Vietnam today. Since then, Vietnam has been formally incorporated into Chinese territory for the first time; In Vietnam, this period of history is also called the first northern period (hehe, the north belongs to the northern genus and the north is called the slave genus). Thus, the period of China's annexation and jurisdiction over Vietnam lasted for more than 1000 years.
It was not until 939 AD that Vietnam got rid of the direct rule of China and became independent. Although it is independent, Vietnam still has to pay tribute to China regularly to recognize China's status as a "sovereign state"; It was not until France invaded Vietnam in the second half of the19th century that China was replaced by France as the suzerain.
During the period of Vietnam's independence but national subjugation, Vietnam also established the same feudal social system as China. Especially during the Li Dynasty (A.D.101225) and the Chen Dynasty (A.D. 1225- 1428), Viet Nam introduced various political and cultural relic systems from China, especially the imperial examination system and Confucianism. In other words, although Vietnam is no longer directly ruled by China, China still has great influence on Vietnam. Chen Chongjin, a famous Vietnamese historian, lamented in his masterpiece General History of Vietnam: "No matter adults or children, anyone who goes to school only studies the history of China, not the history of his own country. Poetry and prose should also be taken from China, but they don't say anything about their own affairs. China people regard their own history as insignificant and think it is useless to know it. This is also because since ancient times, I have no Chinese, and I have only studied with the help of other people's languages and other people's words all my life. Everything is influenced by others, and I have no characteristics, forming a situation like' I hate foreigners' ... "
1858, France sent troops to Vietnam on the pretext of persecuting missionaries. Ruan Chao, the last court in Vietnam, lost to the French army, but in 1862, Jiading, Bianhe and Dingxiang were ceded to France for peace. Of course, France is not satisfied with this. Later, it invaded other provinces one after another and finally conquered Vietnam completely in 1885. When Vietnam was attacked by the French, it also turned to China for help. But at that time, China was terminally ill, and the troops sent to fight could not effectively stop the French invasion. Finally, in 1885, China and France signed the Tianjin Treaty agreeing to cease fire. In the treaty, China formally renounced its suzerain status and recognized that Viet Nam was under French protection. Since then, Vietnam has been directly ruled by France. It was not until 1945 that Ho Chi Minh took advantage of the international situation just after World War II to declare Vietnam's independence and establish the "Democratic Republic of Vietnam" that the situation began to change.
After Ho Chi Minh declared Vietnam's independence, France and other governments did not immediately recognize the legitimacy of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, and France even launched a war to suppress independence activists. In order to establish the country, the Vietnamese people also waged an anti-French independence war of 10, and it was not until the Geneva agreement of 1954 that the legitimacy of Vietnam's independence was established. However, with the intervention of Europe, the United States, the Soviet Union and China, Vietnam was immediately divided into two parts, namely "South Vietnam" and "North Vietnam". The north-south division continued until 1975. When American troops withdrew from Vietnam, Saigon, the capital of South Vietnam, fell into the hands of the Viet Cong, and the north and south were reunified by Vietnam. North and South Vietnam formally merged on 1976, renamed as "Socialist Republic of Vietnam", with its capital in "Hanoi"; This unified situation has been maintained to this day.
With the unification of the north and the south, the immature Vietnamese wolves began to support the former suzerain, the backer during the Anti-American War, and even the strongest backing (the most critical turning point of Vietnam's Anti-American War-Dien Bien Phu Battle was commanded by Chen Geng and his team). Despite heavy casualties, our army has taught Vietnam an unforgettable lesson.
