The stage of history always belongs to the powerful countries and to the big countries, and the small countries most of the time survive in the cracks, allowing the big countries to fish and meat.

However, there is such a country that can be called a small power that cannot be defeated, and it has been tossing and turning in the face of big countries for 2,000 years.

This country that can be tossed the most is Vietnam, how much Vietnam can toss, you don't need to look at its history, just look at the history of our country can get a glimpse.

In ancient times, the Vietnamese region was also known as Cochin, Lam Eup, Cham and Annam. The first time it appeared in our field of vision was the Qin Dynasty, when Qin Shi Huang sent Zhao Tuo to conquer northern Vietnam when he conquered Lingnan and placed it under the jurisdiction of the established Xiang County. After the death of Qin, it was owned by the Nanyue State established by Zhao Tuo, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops to destroy the Nanyue State to conquer Vietnam again, and set up three counties of Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen and Rinan in Vietnam. Most of today's Vietnam is owned by our country.

However, the Vietnamese region has been in rebellion, Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiushi's Jiaozhi women rebelled and became kings, Jiuzhen, Rinan, and responded one after another, capturing sixty-five cities, and the momentum was huge. Emperor Guangwu sent the general Fubo Ma Yuan to quell the rebellion, and killed Zhengfang and Zhenger. Ma Yuan also set up a copper pillar as a boundary monument in Rinan County, with the inscription "The copper pillar is broken, and the toe is extinguished", but every time the Yue people pass by, they throw bricks and stones to express their resistance, and they throw so many stones that they pile up into a hill.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the Han Emperor Xian, the world was in turmoil, and the Rinan County rebelled again and established the Linyi State, which has been invading the Rinan and Jiuzhen counties since then, and Jiaozhi was also exhausted, and the Eastern Wu and the Eastern Jin Dynasty were anxious about it.

Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty Liu Yu sent the general Du Huidu to the south to conquer Linyi, after Liu Yu's death, Linyi began to invade again, and Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty "is willing to ride the long wind and break the waves of thousands of miles" of the famous general Zong Yu once again went south to break the elephant soldiers of Linyi and break through its capital.

During the reign of Emperor Xiao Yan of Liang, Li Ben's rebellion broke out in Jiaozhi, and he took control of the whole of North Vietnam and proclaimed himself emperor, that is, the former Li Dynasty of Vietnam. Emperor Wu of Liang sent the later Emperor Wu of Chen, Chen Baxian, to lead the army to pacify, and after Chen Ba withdrew his army, the former Li Dynasty occupied Jiaozhi again.

Emperor Wen of Sui sent the general Liu Fangnan to conquer and behead Li Fozi, who was the emperor of the former Li Dynasty, and northern Vietnam once again belonged to China. During the reign of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, Liu Fang marched south to Linyi and broke through its capital.

During the Tang Dynasty, the Annam Protectorate was set up in Vietnam, and there were constant riots in the area, and many of the Protectors were killed. During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the Mei Shuluan rebellion broke out, occupied Jiaozhou and established the Mei Dynasty in Vietnam, and was pacified and killed by Yang Siqiao. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Annan people united with Nanzhao to capture Jiaozhou, which was recovered by the general Gao Biao. Champa in southern Vietnam also repeatedly sent troops to attack the Tang Dynasty and seize land.

In 938, Wu Quan, a native of Jiaozhi, defeated the Southern Han Dynasty and established the Wu Dynasty, which was the first time that Vietnam truly broke away from our country.

During the Song Dynasty, after the establishment of the Dinh Dynasty of Vietnam, the Song Dynasty recognized Vietnam as a vassal state rather than our territory. Later, the Li Dynasty of Vietnam took advantage of the war between the Song Dynasty and the Western Xia Dynasty to plunder the border many times. During the time of Song Shenzong, Vietnam captured hundreds of thousands of people in Guangxi, and the Song Shenzong sent the general Guo Kui to defeat Vietnam in the Fuliang River, beheaded the Vietnamese prince Hong Zhen, and Vietnam sued for peace.

During the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan sent troops to the south to invade Vietnam twice, but suffered heavy losses, and the generals instigated them to die.

During the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, the Hu clan of Vietnam provoked the Ming Dynasty's vassal system, and Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, sent the general Zhang Fu to destroy Annan and set up a political envoy to directly rule. However, during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, the LĂȘ Dynasty defeated the Ming army and successfully restored the country.

During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, the Vietnamese Ruan clan usurped the country and provoked the Qing Dynasty's suzerain-vassal system, and although the Qianlong sent Sun Shiyi, the governor of Liangguang, to capture the Vietnamese capital Hanoi, he won first and then defeated, and finally recognized the Ruan usurpation.

In addition to constantly fighting against the northern powers, Vietnam also continued to expand into the surrounding cities of Chenla (Cambodia), Laos, and Siam (Thailand), which continued until the mid-19th century when it was invaded and colonized by France, and when Japan invaded Vietnam in 1940 during World War II, Vietnam was colonized by both Japan and France.

After World War II, Vietnam was divided into South Vietnam and North Vietnam, and in 1954 North Vietnam began to toss, went to war with France and finally defeated France.

In 1961, the United States intervened in the North and South Vietnam War, and the Vietnam War broke out, and finally North Vietnam defeated the United States to unify Vietnam.

However, Vietnam, which ushered in the highest moment in history, still did not give up the toss, and while the north continued to provoke the big brother to create border conflicts and forcibly occupy Nansha islands and reefs, thus triggering a self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, it once again began the unfinished business in history - invading Cambodia and Laos, which was not completely stopped until 1989.

Throughout the history of Vietnam, it has fought with almost all the dynasties of our country, was occupied for thousands of years but finally became independent, and defeated France, the world's old colonial power, and the superpower United States.
