Chapter 532 Fear the Burmese Army

"Damn it! How could the navy of Ming Kingdom do this? This is cutting off the roots of my king's king's kingdom!"

King Long punched the table with a punch, extremely angry. After pondering for a while, he ordered: "Issue an imperial edict to order the chieftains from all over the country to grant expansion troops! Tell them that after the Ming navy comes, they will divide their land to the untouchables. If they want their land not to be divided, they must protect the king's territory with all their strength!"

Qin Liangyu still marched hard in the tropical rainforest.

Since Myanmar is still in the rainy season, the army led by Qin Liangyu encountered heavy rain shortly after entering Myanmar.

Moreover, it rained heavily, and it took several days to go straight, and all the officers and soldiers were wet by the heavy rain, and the road was blocked and it was difficult to walk.

It's hard to camp and rest.

Because the ground is full of mud and cannot move.

The entire army could only spend the night on horseback.

Therefore, before the expedition was launched, many people in the entire army were still infected, especially the guards' special agent camp, which was called the elite imperial guards. Because most of them were northerners and were not adapted to the local conditions, many of them were infected.

Fortunately, there are enough anti-malaria and other drugs and military medical staff.

Except for a small number of serious illnesses that need to be sent back to Yunnan for treatment, most of them only need to be treated on the spot and rested.

What's even more troublesome is that food and gunpowder are also affected by moisture.

There was no choice but to stay in the place where the village was not in front of the village and the shop was not in the back for several days, waiting for the weather to clear the weather so that the grain could be dried before marching.

But the morale of the entire army is still very high.

The main reason is that Qin Liangyu has a high personal prestige and has rich experience in leading troops.

She knew very well that this kind of marching hiking and wading would be very hard for soldiers, not to mention that most of them were local soldiers who were not very loyal to the court, so it was impossible for them to have no complaints.

Therefore, even though she was old, she still ate and slept with the soldiers, so that the officers and soldiers had no complaints.

After all, an old lady over 60 is not afraid of fatigue. As an officer and soldier who are almost all young men, she is still embarrassed to complain.

Of course, it is also related to the sufficient logistics preparations of Daming. A large amount of logistics supplies are carried by horses. Even an ordinary soldier was equipped with two or three horses. Even if one of them fell ill, two were still available. Therefore, the officers and soldiers who went to the expedition were still full of energy.

However, Myanmar still took advantage of the opportunity of heavy rain affecting the speed of the Ming army's march, and made a lot of preparations in advance, and made many preparations on the unarranged Ming army's must-pass road.

Three months later, Qin Liangyu led the main force to enter Mubang.

This was originally the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

The defenders of Mubang directly abandoned the city and fled.

Therefore, Qin Liang's Yu tribe successfully occupied Mubang.

But this was not because the Myanmar army was afraid of the Ming army, but implemented a strategic transfer, intending to flee to the mountains to fight guerrillas with the Ming army. For this reason, before fleeing to the mountains, they also implemented a plan to strengthen the walls and clear the fields, moving all the people into the mountains.

After the Ming army arrived, they did not find enough food, and only searched hundreds of stones of food after entering the mountain.

Before going to the expedition, Qin Liangyu also recruited a group of Han battalions in Yunnan and Guangxi. These battalions were originally used as a military force to check and balance the local local soldiers, but are now being transferred to Myanmar to garrison in the newly occupied cities.

Now after recapturing Mubang, Qin Liangyu left three thousand Han soldiers in Mubang City and continued to advance to the barbarians with his main force.

Because Qin Liangyu had also learned through her informant that Myanmar was misled by her temporary change of the march plan, which led to Myanmar's failure to respond in advance and organized defense in the Sifou River. In the end, Myanmar could only hurry to organize the main force to fight the enemy in Manjie.

Therefore, Qin Liangyu rushed to Manjie directly based on the information.

King Talong had asked the Burmese army to build more than 20 Muzhai here, and used this to construct more than 20 military camps, which stretched for dozens of miles, and were all tied to the main roads everywhere.

The Burmese army used the rich giant trees in tropical rainforests to arrange them into village walls in various Muzhai, and did not cut off the wet bark on the outside, making it difficult for the Ming army to attack from outside. The giant village walls were built with tall earth walls. In addition, deep trenches were dug inside and outside the wooden walls and earth walls, and sharp bamboo sticks were inserted into the trenches, and stains were poured with dirt or animal rotten corpses on the bamboo sticks.

But if the Ming army wanted to capture Awa, they had to conquer these Muzhai one by one.

Fire attack is not available, because it is a tropical rainforest area and is very humid.

In addition, Qin Liangyu found that there was no danger to defend on his side, so Qin Liangyu had to face the risk of being attacked and destroyed by the Burmese army.

In order to avoid being defeated by the Myanmar army, Qin Liangyu had to take the initiative to attack.

In addition, Qin Liangyu only knew the principle of doing things in one go, and then exhausting it, and then losing it three times. In addition, if it drags on for a long time, it will also increase food consumption.

Therefore, Qin Liangyu knew that he had to launch an attack on these more than 20 Muzhai as soon as possible.

"Enter the dense forest to form a formation, the white pole soldiers are lined in front of the formation, the special agent camp is behind the formation, and the rest are in the formation."

Qin Liangyu first issued an order to end the formation.

On this side, Mang Dahe, the general who guarded Muzhai in Myanmar, knew that he had no chance to send cavalry to charge the battle, and the Ming army on the other side was obviously prepared.

Qin Liangyu took advantage of the night to let the local troops in Guangxi and Yunnan divide into two groups to occupy the first Muzhai east-west ridge, and encircle the first Muzhai on three sides, and make an attempt to attack the latter Muzhai first, and then divide the Muzhai in front.

Seeing this, Mang Dahe couldn't help but feel a little relieved: "You dare to divide the troops! Let Sihuzi lead his troops out of the camp to attack the Ming army who was still in the forest!"

Qin Liangyu did not really want to attack Muzhai behind, but deliberately divided his troops to show weakness, causing the Myanmar army to be deceived, and led the Myanmar army out to attack.

Because the experienced Qin Liangyu knew that the Burmese Army was not good at field combat when he saw the quality of the Burmese Army, otherwise he would not have divided the colors of the officers and soldiers' clothes so clearly that as long as he fought in the field, the archers on his side could accurately shoot and kill the officers.

Qin Liangyu stayed in the forest with his own direct line, Baigang and Guards' Special Battalion.

The white-rod soldiers were very good at archery skills, and they were not inferior to the heavy armored infantry of the Qing Dynasty.

The Guards' Special Service Battalion is equipped with a rifled rifle, which has high accuracy and can be used to hit wherever it is pointed.

Therefore, when the Myanmar army rushed over from a high point, the Guards' Special Battalion and the White-Steel soldiers who had already set up their own formation also began to fire arrows and guns.

Because the leaders of the Burmese army were all wearing red clothes and the soldiers were all wearing green clothes.

Therefore, Qin Liangyu directly ordered the officers and soldiers on his side to aim directly at the counterattack of Hongyi.

Therefore, the arrows and guns of the Guards' Special Battalion and the White-Steel soldiers were like eyes, and they specifically picked the officers of the Burmese Army to fight.

Not long after, more than 500 officers of the Myanmar Army were wiped out, and the entire Myanmar Army collapsed directly.

Then, Qin Liangyu ordered the rattan soldiers who were reserve teams to rush out to pursue, and during the pursuit, he wiped out thousands of Burmese troops.

The Myanmar army was defeated and retreated to the village.

Mang Dahe was quite depressed when he saw this.

But after this, the Myanmar army also learned its lesson and dared not come out to take risks in field battles with the Ming army.

Because his army was scared by the Ming army this time, and it was said that the army's firearms were like eyes, and they would hit anyone they wanted. They were so brave that the Burmese army, which did not fight with the Ming army, were scared.
