Zhu Youxiao knew that Myanmar was not easy to destroy.

Although Burmese jade is indeed tempting.

However, due to the special climate and geography, it was difficult for the Central Plains dynasty to annex here in history.

You should know that the Central Plains dynasty almost ruled the southwest until the Ming Dynasty. It was not until the recent decades that the Yang Yinglong rebellion and the She'an rebellion began to undergo large-scale land reform in the southwest area.

What's more, Myanmar, where the environment and climate are more special.

Therefore, whether it is the three battles that are going on at the same time in the Western Expedition, the Indian Expedition, and the Myanmar Expedition, Zhu Youxiao is most concerned and worried about.

In the expedition, the Mongolian army led by Lin Dankhan attracted hatred in front.

Therefore, the ethnic groups in the west were not disgusted with the arrival of the Ming Dynasty.

Even now, the logistics pressure on the expedition to the West is not great.

Because when Lu Xiangsheng learned that Lin Danhan was recruiting many forces in the west and growing stronger like a snowball, he was even enough to launch a large-scale counterattack against the army in the west, he submitted a memorial to suggest that the emperor allow him to slow down the pace of the west and instead change the strategy of expedition to the west with military conquest as the supplement and military farming as the main focus.

Zhu Youxiao also agreed with Lu Xiangsheng's strategy.

Now Zhou Yuji and Lu Xiangsheng have built large-scale military farms in Yerkang, Turpan and other areas, which are today's Xinjiang area.

They only maintained a mobile corps of 20,000 yuan in order to be ready to support all parties in resisting Lin Dankhan's rebels, and then reap the benefits.

Because there are many oasis in many places in Xinjiang, it is very suitable for cultivation.

When Lu Xiangsheng directly turned the army of 100,000 and the remaining young and strong Turpan and Yarkand into the main force of military farming, the grain produced can not only hoard grain to support the army but also support the people.

So the logistics pressure on the expedition to the West is very small now.

As for the conquest of India, because India's geography is not as complicated as Myanmar, and the political system of the Mughal Empire was actually formed by a federal state, and the organization was not high. In addition, the Japanese army and the Korean army were responsible for the main combat tasks, so Zhu Youxiao was not worried about the result of the conquest of the conquest of India.

But when it comes to conquer Myanmar, Zhu Youxiao was still worried that he would return in vain, and even became like the Qing-Myanmar War in history, which was meaningless except for expending national strength.

For this reason, Zhu Youxiao also summoned Ministers of the Political Affairs Hall and Ministers of the Privy Council overnight to conquer Myanmar.

"Even if we don't know if Mubang is surrounded, we have to transfer more troops from other places first. Destroying Myanmar is not easy. We cannot just hope that only Duke Yi can completely destroy Myanmar. We have to use the strength of the whole country! We will then draw Sichuan soldiers, Zhejiang soldiers, Huguang soldiers, and Guizhou soldiers to form a 20,000-30,000-30,000-10,000-10,000-10,000 to transfer Yang Zhan back to serve as Governor of Awa, and let him lead this army directly to Awa and support the Duke Yi! "

Zhu Youxiao said this to his Minister of Political Affairs and the Minister of the Privy Council in Qinzheng Hall.

"If you want to recruit, you can only recruit familiar Chinese and local Han camp soldiers like Shifu Tusi. Otherwise, it will lead to a rebellion of southwestern chieftains. They will definitely not want to be drawn away by the court for a large number of local soldiers. However, the withdrawal of these mature Chinese and Han camp soldiers will cause a reduction in the number of troops loyal to the court in the southwest region. In this way, some ambitious southwestern chieftains will take the opportunity to cause trouble."

Zhu Xieyuan said at this time.

"In this way, the pressure on money and grain will be greater. In order to supply the troops that are now seeking Burma, the court has used money and grain worth tens of millions of yuan. If another army is drawn, it will take so much more."

Bi Ziyan said.

"Even if you spend all your time, Myanmar will be destroyed! The expedition to Myanmar is not an economic war, but a political war. It will affect the prestige of the central court in the southwest chieftains in the future and the feasibility of changing land into the southwest. Without borrowing this war to consume most of these southwest local soldiers and Myanmar local soldiers, the court will not be able to completely rule these places in the future."

Zhu Youxiao said.

"Your Majesty, why not expand the scope of the draw and draw the naturalized Sauron troops from the north to go south!"

Sun Chuanting said.

"Although the Sauron soldiers are good at fighting, can they be suitable for the place in Myanmar?"

Fu Zonglong asked at this time.

"It is not suitable for it. The conquest of Myanmar requires consuming these alien soldiers. If these Sauron soldiers are not consumed, it will not be conducive to more thorough Chineseization in the north!"

Sun Chuanting replied.

"Accurate! I also transferred the Sauron soldiers. The same sentence is to reduce the number of Sauron soldiers in a strategic manner, but I would like to praise the Sauron soldiers who performed bravely! At that time, Chongwen Temple and others will praise some individual heroes!"

Zhu Youxiao replied.

"Abide by the order!"

Therefore, unlike Qianlong in history, Zhu Youxiao was not arrogant from the beginning to believe that he could completely destroy Myanmar with nearly 30,000 troops led by Qin Liangyu. Instead, he made full use of his advantage of the large number of soldiers and generals in the Ming Empire, constantly dispatching troops to the southwest, and using the tactic of adding firewood to continuously send troops to Myanmar, hoping to completely destroy Myanmar.

After being transferred back to the capital, Sichuan general Yang Zhan was ordered to lead 20,000 troops recruited from various places to the southwest.

Among the 20,000 soldiers and horses, there were 7,000 Sauron cavalry, and each of them was very good. In history, they made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty. In this life, they were working hard for the Ming Dynasty.

Here in Myanmar.

Qin Bangping's troops, surrounded by Mubang, repelled several attacks from the Burmese soldiers.

Myanmar has to give up its strong attack and instead siege.

King Long also had to admit that although the troops he mobilized could complete the tactic of great detour and interweaving based on his familiarity with the geographical environment, because they were poorly equipped and had the intention of preserving their strength, they did not want to defend Mubang's guaranteed retreat as hard as the Ming army dared to fight desperately in the attack.

However, at this time, King Long learned about the news that Qin Liangyu led his troops to assist Mubang. For this reason, he had to draw out tens of thousands of troops from more than 200,000 Burmese troops besieging Mubang, and attempted to encircle Qin Liangyu's troops with the Burmese soldiers who had emerged from various mountains and forests to follow Qin Liangyu.

Qin Liangyu knew that the Burmese soldiers would surround her separately, but she had to save Awa.

She now only hopes that the Ming Navy Marines, who marched in the south, can quickly go north to reverse the situation, or that the central court can learn the news that they and Qin Bangping were surrounded as soon as possible, and send more reinforcements to completely defeat Myanmar. Otherwise, even if the Ming Dynasty occupied Awa, it would only be considered as the nominal destruction of Myanmar, and would have to sit and see that there were a large number of Burmese local soldiers scattered in other parts of Myanmar.

Therefore, after Qin Liangyu learned from the scout that Burma was divided, he simply stopped leaving. Instead, he chose a terrain that was conducive to defense, and directly camped to prepare for defense, and ordered the army to search for food in the mountains and forests, such as hunting, digging cellars into the village, etc.

Fortunately for Qin Liangyu, many Burmese people did not have time to withdraw a large amount of food when they were clearing the fields because the Ming army advanced quickly, but they really hid a lot of them, and now they were all dug out by all the officers and soldiers of Qin Liangyu's troops.
