Ming is still involved up north.

28 May – They arrive and begin to siege our capital.
11 Dec – They retake another minor we captured.
4 Jan, 1451 – Lan Xang retakes their capital. We now have enough warscore to free ourselves. We need a 23. I could try to keep pushing, but Ming is winning their war and could finish and move down at any moment.
I could try to keep pushing and I suspect in a few months I might even be able to take a minor holdings or two. But we are in a good place and I don’t want to muck it up.
Peace is ours. We took a little cash too.
Our destiny is now ours once again.
We will NEVER give it up.
