Chapter 1103: Aerial Bombardment

After returning to the camp, the young general of the Burmese army, who went to the Ming army camp to negotiate, was greeted like a hero.

His boss hurriedly ordered someone to stop the coffin under construction, and then personally met with the unlucky and lucky general.

The young general's face was moved, and his heart was bitter, he didn't expect that he had fought hard for many days without accomplishing an inch, and only went to the Ming army camp once, and was promoted when he came back......

He secretly made up his mind in his heart that after the war was over, he would become a diplomat and not fight!

The next day, the commander of the Burmese army, Mangfu, sent a delegation of 14 generals to the Ming army camp to negotiate, hoping to negotiate an armistice and peace and restore friendly relations between the two countries.

The Burmese army delegation has a strong lineup, which can be regarded as giving the Ming army enough face.

On the side of the Ming army, Xu Qingshan also sent twelve representatives to negotiate with them, and issued a series of armistice conditions, which were summarized in a treaty.

As soon as the Burmese representative looked at the treaty, good guy, I'm a good guy directly!

Let the king of Burma bind himself to Nanjing to ask for guilt, execute all the Burmese soldiers who participated in the encirclement and suppression of Ming officials, pay a compensation of 5 million silver yuan, and cede ......

After reading the treaty drafted by the Ming army, the representatives of the Burmese army looked very ugly, and the conditions of the Ming Dynasty were terrifying!

However, they did not dare to refuse at once, and talked patiently and seriously, and at the same time put forward their own conditions.

In this way, the two sides entered a stage of several days of fighting, and the Ming army was resting and recuperating while transporting supplies from the rear.

It is the winter solstice, and the area north of the Qinling Mountains of the Ming Dynasty has entered the cold season, while Myanmar is in the cool season, and the temperature during the day is more than 20 degrees.

Myanmar is surrounded by mountains to the east, north and west, acting as a barrier to the southward movement of cold air from the Asian continent in winter, while the south is free of mountains to allow warm and moist air from the Indian Ocean to flow unimpeded.

Affected by the monsoon, Myanmar is divided into hot season, rainy season and cool season throughout the year.

The Burmese army was not idle, the previous Burmese army's camp was messed up by the Ming army, and many places were seriously damaged and precarious, and they began to repair the camp.

However, the Ming army launched another artillery bombardment, and the Burmese army demolished as much as the Burmese army repaired.

The Burmese representative protested to the Ming army representative on this situation, saying: "You can't fight anymore!" This is the time of negotiation, please be professional! ”

The representative of the Ming army just replied lightly: "Oh, I know, please rest assured?" We are very professional! ”

The Ming army is constantly firing? Go on the offensive? At one point, another layer of Burmese army wooden fence was destroyed, and the Wuhuang artillery even forcibly demolished a number of wooden piles, causing the camp to collapse one piece, leaving only the last layer of wooden fence.

10th day of November? The representative of the Burmese army actually took out a handwritten letter from the Burmese king Mangbai? Xu Qingshan was quite surprised.

Is the reckless white a usurpation of the throne? Da Ming has always refused to admit it? He also never delivered a credential to Daming? Why did you suddenly write this time?

He didn't know that this letter of state was forged by the commander of the Burmese army, Mangfu, and the right prime minister, Mahaduro, at the risk of being killed!

These days? The Ming army's offensive caused heavy losses to the Burmese army, losing thousands of people? Coupled with a series of previous battles, the Burmese army has lost more than 40,000 troops? There's nowhere to bury it!

More than 100,000 troops gathered in Jiangtou City, facing 20,000 Ming troops, but they did not dare to take the initiative to attack, and the daily consumption was extremely great.

The right prime minister, Mahaturo, is a civilian official, and he knows the national conditions of Myanmar very well, and the country can no longer afford a war of this level!

If the fight continues, the national conditions of Burma will collapse, and then uprisings will break out in various places, and the Tusi will become independent one after another, and the Taungoo Dynasty will be completely finished!

The reckless man also considered the same way, the Donghu Dynasty was unified and powerful by his father-in-law, and he did not want to watch his father-in-law's years of efforts burn down.

To put it bluntly, these two people on the front line, everything is for this country!

In order to worry about the liquidation of the king of Burma afterwards, the tone of the national letter forged by the right prime minister was very tough and very reckless, and he did not lose face.

However, you are tough, and you can't change the situation of being beaten, Xu Qingshan did not reply immediately, but summoned the generals to arrange a general attack plan.

A few days ago, Xu Qingshan received a letter from Xu Mingwu, and also received two weapons called "Mingwu Machine Gun", which were signed by the Royal Academy of Sciences.

He was a little surprised to learn that his second son was going to accompany him on a westward expedition, and he did not expect His Majesty to drive the expedition in person, because the emperor did not urge him to make a quick decision from beginning to end.

Xu Qingshan was very relieved that the second son, who had always worried him, not only had excellent military literacy, but also invented weapons and equipment!

In the next battle, let Lao Tzu test the water with the equipment you invented!

On November 15, the 19th year of Tianwu, in the sky, hot air balloons slowly floated towards the Burmese military camp.

At this time, the Burmese army wooden village was immersed in joy, everyone thought that the war was coming to an end, and some barracks began to celebrate in advance.

Xu Mingde stood in a hot air balloon, looking down at the wooden village below, a smile on the corner of his mouth.

In response to this operation, the Ming army praised the painting in advance to calculate the direction of the wind, if the wind direction is not the same, the Ming army can also ensure that the wind energy is vertical to the Burmese army wooden village, but it is just a change of direction to attack.

Now the wind is blowing from the direction where the Ming army camp is located to the Burmese army's wooden village, which reduces a lot of trouble.

After the Ming army's air formation lifted into the air, a brigade of 100 hot air balloons flew towards the Burmese army camp with the wind current.

This scene has been imprinted in the hearts of countless Ming soldiers and soldiers, and it will never be forgotten, and Xu Qingshan is no different.

"Look, there's something in the sky!"

"What's that!"

Wave after wave of screams resounded in the wooden village of the Burmese army, from the officers to the soldiers, all looking up at the sky, pointing and discussing.

I saw a dense mass of things floating in the sky, coming towards their camp, growing bigger and bigger, like heavenly soldiers descending.

"It's the Ming Army!"

When the air formation floated over the Burmese army, an exclamation suddenly came, and the Burmese army general shouted frantically: "Quickly warn and defend!" ”

Looking at the battle in the sky, the Burmese army below was surrounded for a while, they never imagined that the Ming army would attack again, and it was in this way!

I've never heard of air combat!

All this has nothing to do with Xu Mingde, seeing that the position is almost over, he immediately ordered: "Blow the trumpet and give the order to bomb the enemy camp!" ”

"Woo ......"

In the night sky, a dull trumpet suddenly sounded.

The Ming army pilot on the hot air balloon quickly lit the prepared explosive bag with a fire breaker, and then threw it to the position where the Burmese army was gathered.

The fuse burned, the fiery snake danced, and a brilliant parabola was cut through the air, and finally landed in the heavily armed Burmese army camp.

"Boom!"

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The explosive pack, which was enough to weigh the tube, fell into the ground and exploded with a bang, with incredible power and a boom in heat.

Many Burmese army tents were lifted, and corpses were blown up, and there were screams and screams.

However, this was just an appetizer, the Ming army bombed more than once, and then hundreds of hot air balloons continued to drop explosive packets, and hundreds of large killing weapons fell into the Burmese army's village one after another, including the Burmese army's sailor anchorage on the river.
