Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1291, The Colonial Policy of the Zhang Brothers
Outside Bago City, Myanmar, Zhang Heling led an army of tens of thousands to surround the city.

"Fire~"

Putting down the binoculars in his hand, Zhang Yanling coldly gave the order to attack.

Fighting all the way from Emerald City, the army is invincible and invincible. There is no opponent at all. Almost all of them surrender voluntarily. surrender.

The Bago City in front of me is the largest city I have encountered so far, and it is also an important checkpoint leading to Toungoo and Ava City.

However, he didn't take it seriously, because although the Bago city in front of him is a famous big city in Myanmar, compared with the cities of Daming, it is only the size of a small county, and even the city of Daming Small counties are not as good.

The city wall is short and has been in disrepair for many years, and it is simply not enough to stop the army under him.

"Dong Dong~ Dong Dong~"

Accompanied by the deafening sound of cannons, shells roared in the sky, and fell into Bago City in a blink of an eye. Suddenly, the whole Bago City became chaotic, houses continued to collapse, and the panicked crowd seemed to be headless. The flies are generally running around.

The defenders of the Ava Dynasty on the city wall had no intention of fighting at all. With the falling of shells, there were many casualties on the city wall.

"kill!"

"Give me a hard kill. If you don't kill a few cities hard, these Burmese may not be willing to accept the rule of our Zhang family honestly in the future."

Round after round of artillery fire, Bago City was like a faltering candle in a violent storm, ready to be destroyed at any moment.

Zhang Yanling drew out the sword in his hand, with a cold light in his eyes.

To carry out colonial rule on the Tianzhu side all year round, to collect taxes on the colonies, plunder resources and wealth, etc., will naturally encounter resistance from the local indigenous people.

Regarding the rebellious natives, Zhang Yanling has also summed up a lot of experience and lessons over the years. In his opinion, if the Zhang family wants to firmly rule a colony, it needs to be ruthless.

The first thing to do is to let the local natives know the means and power of the Zhang family, and make them afraid, so that they dare not resist the rule of the Zhang family, and will honestly contribute wealth to the Zhang family.

If you treat them better, they will take an inch and think that you are easy to bully and talkative. One day you say you want to cut taxes, the next day you say you want to take power, and the day after tomorrow you will be kicked out.

On the Bengal side, his elder brother is the governor, responsible for coordinating the colony, while he is responsible for leading the army, developing the colony, and adopting bloody ruling strategies.

Any native who resisted or disobeyed Zhang's orders would be brutally suppressed by him.

Without these means, it would be very difficult for the Zhang family to gain a firm foothold in Bangladesh. Just relying on the children of the Zhang family to rule the vast and fertile land of East India, the Zhang family can plunder tens of millions of dollars from the colony every year. A huge wealth of two silvers.

Wanting to colonize Myanmar, Zhang Yanling can think of a very simple way, that is to kill chickens to scare monkeys, and use iron fists to occupy, rule, and manage here.

The Zhang brothers are not civil servants, and they don't believe in Confucian benevolence and morality. Their behavior is a bit like that of hooligans and bandits.

The purpose of colonizing this place is also to plunder wealth, not to build this place, nor to treat this place as one's own home.

So there is no question of whether to build or not. Everything revolves around how to make money.

The food grown in the fields was taxed, all the minerals in the colony belonged to the Zhang family, and no one was allowed to mine them, and the population of the colony also belonged to the Zhang family’s slaves.

This kind of ruling policy also caused resistance in East India one after another, and there were always things against their rule.

Fortunately, the Zhang brothers still have a bit of conscience in terms of the most important agricultural tax. They just collect it according to the proportion of the landlords in Daming, which is much lighter than the original tax. The pair of straw bags has been able to stabilize the colonies on the East Tianzhu side.

Now that they want to colonize Myanmar, Zhang Yanling, a pighead, can think of the same way.

No matter what happens, let's kill for a while before talking, and first erect the majesty of the Zhang family, so that it will be convenient for the future rule and management of the Zhang family.

The first target of the operation was the Bagu City in front of him, because the city in front basically surrendered voluntarily when they saw Zhang's colonial army, but the Bagu City in front of them seemed to insist on resisting.

Following Zhang Yanling's order, the colonial army rushed towards Bagu City like a tide.

"Boom~Boom~"

The musketeers stood under the city wall to suppress the top of the city, dense gunfire and billowing white smoke rose, and the defenders on the city wall who were about to fight with the colonial army were killed and injured immediately.

The slave army carried the ladders, one after another leaned up, and the slaves scrambled to the top of the city wall.

The slave army of the Zhang family is similar to the colonial army of other colonies and vassal states. Its members come from all over the world, including Slavs, Poles, and Hungarians in Europe, Ottomans, Persians, Arabs, and natives of Tianzhu in Central Asia. .

As a slave, being able to fight for the master is also an opportunity to stand up.

Because the Zhang family also learned from the Western United Commercial Bank and promised these slaves some things, such as fighting bravely and killing a certain number of enemies, they will be free. Houses, women, etc.

These things are naturally the most attractive to slaves, so the slave army is the most active and brave one in combat, always rushing to the forefront, because only by rushing to the forefront can there be the most enemies to kill.

The defenders on the city wall were firmly suppressed by muskets. The slave army barely encountered any resistance, and they climbed up the city wall without any problems, and then began a bloody killing.

On the top of the city, these slave soldiers were covered in blood one by one, with human heads tied around their waists, like demons from hell, and the tall and tall soldiers of Bagu City who were like mountains. The defenders were heartbroken.

The two brothers of the Zhang family are also rough people. Regarding the merits of these slave troops, only looking at the head is the simplest and most primitive method.

As a result, these slave army, with human heads tied around their waists, looked extremely ferocious and terrifying, and at the same time, the killing was extremely heavy.

Wherever they passed, they almost killed anyone they saw, without mercy, as long as the Zhang family brothers did not give the order to seal the knife, they would continue to kill.

Because for these slaves, the more heads they have, the more wealth and rewards they can get.

The city gate was quickly opened, and the colonial army poured into this small Bago city like a tide.

In Bagu City, the flames of war are everywhere, and the sound of crying and killing is everywhere.

The river flowing out of the city began to turn red, and a strong smell of blood wafted out for more than ten miles. Vehicle after vehicle of corpses were pulled out continuously, a large pit was dug, and they were buried directly.

When the slave army counted the heads and battle achievements, countless heads piled up together, forming a terrifying hill. When most people saw it, they would pee their pants in fright.

.......
When Zhang Yanling led the army to kill all the way and attacked Ava City, the capital of the Ava Dynasty, Zhang Heling, who was sitting in Emerald City, was also busy.

The army of the Zhang brothers directly began to invade Myanmar. To turn the whole of Myanmar into a colony of the Zhang brothers, this is naturally a big event for the tribes and princes of the entire Myanmar.

Compared with Zhang Yanling's killing, Zhang Heling is more calm, sophisticated, and has more methods. He knows that occupying Myanmar is not for killing, but for colonizing here and plundering its wealth.

So he is different from his younger brother Zhang Yanling, he knows better how to effectively manage and control a place, and formulate an appropriate tax ratio, so that he can better obtain wealth from the colony.

At the same time, he also knows how to divide the enemy and achieve his goals with the least cost.

"Go back and tell you Pyayhou, as long as he is willing to submit to our Zhang family and send troops to help attack the Ava Dynasty, after my Zhang family gets Burma, I will not treat Pyayhou badly. I can make Pyayhou the king of Pyay , and also expanded his fief."

Zhang Heling looked at the retainers of Pemihou in front of him, smiled all over his face, and drew a big cake with empty teeth.

Anyway, the Ava Dynasty was destroyed first. As for the princes in various places, it would not be too late to clean up slowly later. The purpose of painting cakes now is to stabilize the situation so that they will not unite and send troops to fight against themselves.

Although Zhang Heling is not afraid of all parties in Myanmar uniting together, it is naturally the best to be able to break through one by one, and clean up one by one slowly.

"Father, do we really want to make that prince of Pemi as king?"

When Pemihou's retainers left, Zhang Heling's second son Zhang Zhijie hurriedly asked.

"Feng Wang?"

"Shut up, what kind of thing is Pemihou, the guy with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, give him a crown, does he look like it?"

"What's more, is our Zhang family qualified to be king?"

"This is just a tactic to slow down the army. After the Ava Dynasty is destroyed, I will slowly clean up these Burmese princes and tribes."

Zhang Heling said with a smile.

"That's it~"

Zhang Zhijie nodded again and again after listening, and then said: "The Burmese Dongyu Hou Selongfa also sent people over, and sent some top-quality jade and ivory. They want to submit to us, on the condition that our Zhang family controls Burma. After that, let them still control the Mengyang area."

"Mengyang's Dongyu Hou Selongfa?"

"It's the Chieftain Si who betrayed our Daming back then, if I remember correctly."

"Yes, it's them."

"As for the traitors, there is nothing to discuss. Kill them all. Our Zhang family will still hang out in Daming. We still need to be clear about our position!"
