I'm a big dick

Chapter 628
From the end of Jiajing period to Wanli period in Ming Dynasty, the army of Toungoo Dynasty in Myanmar invaded the Yunnan border of our country, causing a war that lasted for decades.

After the 34th year of Wanli, the Sino-Burmese war basically stopped.This was because, on the Chinese side, the rule of the Ming Dynasty was in crisis, and it was no longer able to recover the vast areas occupied by Burma.

As a result, the Ming Dynasty lost its rule over Meng Yang, Mu Bang and other military and civilian propaganda envoys.

Over the past few decades, the Toungoo Dynasty has shown a tendency to decline, but the Ming Empire has swept away internal troubles, regained its might, and the offensive and defensive trends have changed.

Frostfall, the signal for the beginning of war.The more than 4 Ming soldiers who had been accumulating for a long time divided into two groups and entered Burma.Followed by the chieftain allied forces to assist in the battle, there are as many as 6 to [-] people.

The mobilization and deployment of the [-] troops cannot be absolutely kept secret. Myanmar has also received information before and deployed corresponding defenses.

But when the war broke out, Burmese people discovered that the Ming army was no longer what it used to be. Both the weapons and equipment and the quality of the soldiers were far superior to their own.

The quick surrender of Mubang Tusi enabled the Ming army on the right to advance in a long way and broke the first line of defense of the Burmese.

Important places such as Lashio and Bhamo were smashed by the artillery and rockets of the Ming army, and the defenders were almost wiped out.The Ming army on the left went south quickly, and the front of the soldiers reached Meng Mi.

The situation ahead was overwhelming, and the chieftain coalition forces were looting and looting, and transporting ammunition for the Ming army.Gold and silver property, a large number of Burmese, have become spoils of war.

Many officials have already been placed in the chieftain coalition army, and all the seizures are registered and recorded, and the spoils will be calculated and divided only after the war is over.

A group of Burmese people were driven to the gathering place. There were men and women, old people and children, all of them were frightened and frightened.

"Father, these should belong to us." Sha Dingzhou was very heartbroken, pointing to the crowd, and pointing to the seized cart.

Wang Nong Chieftain Sha Yuan, and Ami Chieftain Pu Ming are relatives, participated in the Ming army's suppression of the Shuixi Rebellion, and received awards from the court, and gained a small reputation in Yunnan.

To his son's complaints, Sha Yuan just chuckled and said, "You are still too young, and your vision is too shallow."

Sha Dingzhou looked at his father. Although he didn't refute, his expression and eyes showed doubts and dissatisfaction.

Sha Yuan patted his son's arm, and said earnestly: "Having seen the strength of the Ming army, what do you think?"

Sha Dingzhou blinked and said, "Very strong. The weapons are sharp and the battle formation is well-organized. The Burmese can't resist it."

Sha Yuan nodded and said: "I saw it in Shuixi for my father, and now I am stronger than before. Even without the help of the local soldiers, I can still sweep Burma."

After a pause, Sha Yuan continued: "The situation in Yunnan Province is already different. The imperial court has strengthened local garrisons and increased the power of the governor. Duke Mu's Mansion will soon be unable to guard Yunnan Province."

There has been a long history of conflicts between Duke Mu's Mansion and the governor of Yunnan and the three officials. In history, the Shadingzhou Rebellion also had this reason.

But now Mu Tianbo is just a child, and there are not many troops that the Mu family can directly command. It is indeed not difficult to see the tendency shown by the court's successive actions.

The purpose of suppressing the rebels in Shuixi, strengthening the garrison in the southwest, and launching the war against Burma was to deter the chieftain.

Because although the strength of the Mugong Mansion has declined, it has guarded Yunnan Province for hundreds of years, and its prestige is still there.For the sake of stability, the imperial court was not too impatient and aggressive.

"The land in the west of Shui belongs to the imperial court, and An's begging for surrender is not available." Sha Yuan shook his head lightly, quite emotionally, "Son, haven't you seen the imperial court's determination and long-term plan?"

Sha Dingzhou was thoughtful, guessing and said: "The Amipu family has no descendants. I am afraid that after death, the post of native official will also be taken back by the court."

Because of his relationship with Platts, Sha Yuan has a plan.If Pu Mingsheng died and his wife Wan's remarried, if he could marry into the Sha family, he could go to the court and merge the lands of the two chieftains.

Historically, the Wan family did remarry Sha Dingzhou, the two chieftains merged into one, and the power of the Sha family increased greatly.

Seeing his father's expression of appreciation, Sha Dingzhou lifted his spirits, and continued: "The imperial court is suppressing the power of native officials, so as to avoid any further incidents in Shuixi."

Sha Yuan nodded and said: "In the original territory of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court did not want to see the power of native officials grow stronger. But in other places, such as Mekong Province and the newly occupied Burmese land, the imperial court's policy is different."

Stretching out his finger and pointing to the distance, there is the camp of the coalition army of native soldiers, Sha Yuan said with a smile: "Why do so many native officials send people, food and money just by calling for it?"

"They want the land here, and the official position of the native official." Sha Dingzhou suddenly realized, and said: "This is also the intention of the imperial court, to move the chieftain's power outside the border, or to call it a newly occupied land."

"Exactly." Sha Yuan let out a long breath, his son understood, and he also felt relieved.

Sha Dingzhou looked at the Burmese and the cart again, his eyes were different.With so many chieftains sending troops, the Ming army would also take a portion of the confiscations. If they were not distributed uniformly, chaos would inevitably arise.

Besides, being able to get a piece of land and a position as a native official is a valuable property that can be passed on to future generations.Compared with some property, it is clear at a glance which is more important.

Sha Yuan could see this, and the other chieftains were not fools either.The imperial court let go of a hole, how could they not seize this opportunity?
The emperor's intentions were already clear, first to beat Burma to death, and then a small number of Ming troops and a large number of native soldiers would fight a protracted war with Burma until Burma was dragged down.

Use the power of the chieftain to devote himself to the great cause of expanding the territory, so that the power of the chieftain can be moved out, and the stability of the country can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

The unfavorable situation of the battle forced the king of Burma to shrink his troops to Awa, so as not to be defeated one by one.At the same time, lengthening the supply line of the Ming army and making logistics difficult is also what the Burmese want to achieve.

The deterioration of the situation is not only the continuous defeat on the front line, but also the attack of the feud Siam.

From the middle of the [-]th century to the beginning of the [-]th century, Siam and Burma fought a long-term war to annex land, plunder labor, and gain political and economic advantages in the Indochina Peninsula.

On the whole, Siam is at a disadvantage, the capital has been breached, and independence has been lost.

Obviously, Siam and the Ming Dynasty have secretly joined forces to deal with Burma.Otherwise, the timing cannot be such a coincidence.

What shocked the Burmese even more was that in southern Burma and northern Siam, the armies of the two countries, which were originally offensive and defensive, suddenly changed in strength.

The Siamese army not only possessed sharp firearms similar to those of the Ming army, but also seemed to have learned the tactics of the Ming army, defeated the Burmese army near Bagan, and entered the Burmese border in one fell swoop.

At this time, Bagan, which was occupied by the Siamese army, was holding a banquet, and several Ming army officers were sitting in the guest seats.

Several Siamese beauties are moving their bare feet lightly in the field, swinging their soft arms, dancing lightly, and expressing affection in their eyebrows.
