Chapter 1099 Ye Lang is arrogant
Myanmar, Toungoo City.
The burly and magnificent Burmese king Mangbai leaned on the golden throne, looking at the ministers in the hall, frowned and said nothing.
The war on the front line has made Myanmar not in a good mood and is not optimistic about the situation.
After the Ming army changed commander, the morale of the Ming army did not decrease as much as they imagined and became more and more sluggish. Instead, it became more and more prosperous. In just one month, it was stunning to Jiangtou City.
Logically speaking, the new coach Xu Qingshan should have three new officials to take office. First, adapt to it and fully grasp the command power. Why did it come so quickly?
What Mangbai didn't know was that the previous Ming army was ineffective in combat, partly because it was the environment, and the most important thing was the internal disagreement of the Burmese army.
The head coach Li Dingguo was once a younger brother under Zhang Xianzhong. During the Chongzhen period, Zhang Xianzhong was surrounded and suppressed by the Ming army and fled everywhere. He and Luo Rucai tried to enter the Anjia in Sichuan, but were repelled by Qin Liangyu's White Petal Army.
Li Dingguo, who was still a young general in white at that time, shot and killed Qin Liangyu's deputy general in Sichuan with one arrow, and formed a considerable bond with the Baigang soldiers.
Because Li Dingguo lured the veteran general to fight at that time, the veteran general saw that he was less than 20 years old and had no precautions to meet him in front of the horse army, and was shot into the throat by Li Dingguo with an arrow.
In the fifteenth year of Tianwu, the southwest changed its territory and returned to the liberation. Qin Liangyu's son Ma Xianglin led the Baigan army to the Southern Army Governor's Office. He was always dissatisfied with Li Dingguo, believing that he did not speak martial ethics back then and shot a 69-year-old general with a sneak attack.
This resentment continued until the Battle of Myanmar. The Baigang soldiers and other troops from Sichuan were all dissatisfied with the bandits, Li Dingguo, who was born into a thief, greatly affected the mobilization of the Ming army.
Otherwise, with Li Dingguo's command ability, it would be difficult to conquer Myanmar, but it would not have been so big a fall.
After Xu Qingshan took over the Burmese army, Ma Xianglin, who had always admired the generals of the Tianwu clan, performed very well. The struggle within the Ming army in the Southern Prefecture was just over and performed as usual.
The Ming army's second expedition to Myanmar was so swift, especially after receiving the war report from the front-line general Comrade Mangfu, Mangbai, who had always been confident, suddenly became less confident.
"Left Prime Minister!"
Mangbai asked an old man in the lower head: "Are those English people saying true? Did Tsarist Russia really invade the northwest territory of the Ming Dynasty?"
The left Prime Minister, who was kneeling under the throne, stood up with great difficulty, walked to the center of the hall, and crawled on the ground, replied firmly: "King, just yesterday, the envoy sent to Junggar to the Junggar has returned. According to his inspection, Tsarist Russia really sent troops half a year ago. Now it has arrived in the Ili River Valley and the Kazakh Khanate? That Western Region Power, which is no less powerful than ours, has also sent troops..."
"Oh... it seems that the foreigners are still a little honest." Mangbai breathed a sigh of relief.
The left prime minister took a breath and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Ming Dynasty...the Ming Dynasty is full of enemies. They fight on multiple fronts and want to defeat me, Myanmar? I'm delusional!"
"Worried? When did the Lone King worry?"
Mangbai snorted lightly? He refused to admit it? He also said: "The Lone King has a general on the front line? You should be foolproof!"
Speaking of the general Rang Man? Mangbai felt a little confident.
The rebellious man was the adopted son of Anabiron, the king of Burma. He was picked up from the pile of refugees. He was considered Mangbai's uncle in terms of seniority.
Anabilon, the grandfather of Mangbai, was an awesome person? During his reign, he conquered Lanna and suppressed local forces. He completed the unification of Myanmar and ended the separatist situation in Myanmar since the end of the 16th century.
What is outstanding? The Burmese king launched the siege of Shalian with great courage, captured and killed the Portuguese colonists who occupied Shalian in Myanmar, captured more than 400 Portuguese soldiers, and allowed their descendants to act as slaves to Myanmar and build firearms for the Burmese army.
The head coach of the Burmese army, who was in Jiangtoucheng, was following Anabilon in all directions, fighting in all directions, and was the national protection general of Myanmar.
Because the rampant man was not a real royal family and had a strategy and had seen the world, Mangbai handed over the command of the front-line army to him.
More than 30 years ago, Mangbai's father, King Talong, gave up the war of expansion that was exhausting the people and hurt the money, and was committed to restoring and developing the domestic economy and allocating land to landless farmers. Myanmar's many years of civilized governance made the nobles forget how to fight.
Faced with the ambitious Ming Dynasty, who could he send if he did not send the warlike general of the country to protect the country?
However, those who usurped the throne were often more sensitive than normal people. In order to prevent the reckless man from wearing a yellow robe, Mangbai sent his confidant right prime minister to the front line to supervise the battle in the name of support.
Most of Myanmar has no regrets about provoking the Ming Dynasty and killing Ming officials.
In their minds, the original Ming Dynasty was like a soft persimmon that could rot without pinching. Since Emperor Tianwu came to power, he has not been honest for a day!
First, he suppressed the bandits and recovered the Shenjing, suppressed the Mongolian tribes, and then destroyed the Yarkand Khanate and the Qing court in one fell swoop, then went east to Japan to occupy other people's territory, and then used thunder to attack the Southern An and Southern Dynasties, and at the same time he took over Chameng and Zhenla, who were surviving!
Now he wants to erode Myanmar's territory step by step through the Three Promotions and Six Comforts, and he must not succeed!
What’s ridiculous is that as the Burmese king, Mangda was willing to fall into depravity and was willing to lick dogs for the Ming Dynasty. If such a monarch does not kill him, what should he do if he keeps it!
In such a harsh international environment, the knowledgeable people in Myanmar, including the reckless general of the country, felt it was necessary to launch a coup to change the king and control the situation.
As soon as the British came to mention this matter, the two sides colluded to plan a coup together, and Mangbai came to power!
However, the Burmese people are quite clear about the temper of the Ming Dynasty. They can destroy the five countries in just ten years, and no one thinks that this is something that a good temper can do!
"Prime Minister Zuo, you personally go to the British Embassy and ask them to send troops to support Jiangtou City!"
Mangbai was still a little worried and decided to pull the British into the water.
The left prime minister said worriedly: "King, the British lost more than 200 troops last time, I'm afraid they won't want to send troops..."
Mangbai frowned and said, "I don't want to send troops? They took the matter up. They have to do things if they take advantage of it!"
Then Mang Bai changed his mind and said tactfully: "If they don't want to send troops, their East India Company should not do business in Myanmar!"
The left prime minister was relieved. The king said this to the point. The British valued the interests the most. If Myanmar could not bear it, their business that had been hard-working in Myanmar for more than 20 years would be ruined!
In this way, Prime Minister Left left the hall and went to find foreign aid.
From beginning to end, they didn't realize how serious this matter was!
Chapter completed!
