The Cham-Vietnamese War of 1471 began when Emperor Lê Thánh Tông of Viet Nam (then known as Đại Việt) launched a military expedition that is widely regarded as marking the downfall of Champa. The Vietnamese forces attacked and sacked the capital Vijaya, and decimated the Cham army. As a result of the conflict, Champa was forced to cede territory to Vietnam and from thereafter ceased to pose a threat to Vietnamese territory. ==Invasion== The Chams' earlier attack on Angkor led the Khmers to ignore the Chams' request for assistance when Vietnam invaded. The Cham feared an imminent Vietnamese attack, and requested that the Ming China bring the Vietnamese back in line by force and clearly demarcate the border between Champa and Vietnam. China only verbally rebuked the Vietnamese for their invasions, which the Vietnamese ignored, proceeding to attack and destroy the Cham. Le Thanh Tong readied his empire for war. On November 28,〔Moose, Christina J. ''Great events from history: The Renaissance & early modern era, 1454-1600''. Salem Press, 2005; p. 4 & 83〕 1470, Le Thanh Tong formally launched his attack as a 100,000-strong Vietnamese naval expedition set out that day, followed by another 150,000 Vietnamese forces on December 8.〔Nhung Tuyet Tran, Anthony Reid. ''Vịêt Nam: borderless histories''. University of Wisconsin Press, Aug 29, 2006; p. 100〕 The Vietnamese army was reorganized to copy the Chinese army, with gunpowder weapons. Le Thanh Tong raised a massive 300,000 army which outnumbered the 100,000 Cham army, although at a massive financial cost which drained the Vietnamese treasury 1,000 gold liang each day. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cham–Vietnamese War (1471)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
