Taungoo City, Burma.

The burly and magnificent Burmese king leaned on the gold-wrapped throne and looked at the ministers in the main hall, his brows furrowed, and he did not say a word.

The news of the fighting on the front line has made the whole of Myanmar not in a very good mood, and the situation is not optimistic.

After the change of commander of the Ming army, the morale did not decrease greatly as imagined, and it withered, but became more and more prosperous, and it reached Jiangtou City in just one month, which made Mang Bai puzzled.

It stands to reason that the new coach Xu Qingshan should be a new official to take office three times, adapt to it first, and thoroughly grasp the command, why did it come so quickly?

What Mang Bai didn't know was that the previous ineffective fighting of the Ming army was partly due to the environment, and the most important thing was the internal discord of the Burmese army.

Coach Li Dingguo was a junior brother under Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Xianzhong was surrounded and suppressed by the Ming army during the Chongzhen period, and when he fled in all directions, Zeng and Luo Rucai tried to enter Sichuan to settle down, but were repelled by Qin Liangyu and the white pole army.

Li Dingguo, who was still a white-robed general at the time, shot and killed the Sichuan deputy general under Qin Liangyu with an arrow, and formed a lot of bonds with the white pole soldiers.

Because Li Dingguo lured the old general to fight at that time, the old general saw that he was less than 20 years old, and he was not prepared to meet him in front of the horse army, and was killed by Li Dingguo with an arrow in the throat.

In the fifteenth year of Tianwu, the southwest was changed and returned to the stream, and Ma Xianglin, the son of Qin Liangyu, led the Baipole Army to merge into the Southern Army Governor's Mansion, and he has always been dissatisfied with Li Dingguo, thinking that he did not talk about martial arts and morality, and shot a sixty-nine-year-old old general with a sneak attack.

This resentment continued until the Battle of Burma, and the white pole soldiers and other troops from Sichuan were all Li Dingguo, who was born as a thief, which greatly affected the movement of the Ming army.

Otherwise, with Li Dingguo's command ability, although it is somewhat difficult to conquer Burma, it will not be such a big heel.

After Xu Qingshan took over the Burmese army, Ma Xianglin, who had always admired the generals of the Tianwu department, showed great cooperation, and the struggle within the Ming army in Nanfu ended and played as usual.

The Ming army's second expedition to Burma was so swift, especially after receiving the battle report sent by Comrade Mangfu, the front-line general, Mangbai, who had always been confident, suddenly lost his confidence.

"Prime Minister Zuo!"

Mang Bai asked an old man below, "Is what those English people said true?" Did Tsarist Russia really invade the northwest territory of the Ming Dynasty? ”

Kneeling under the throne, Prime Minister Zuo stood up with great difficulty, walked to the center of the main hall, and then prostrate on the ground, and replied in a firm tone: "King, just yesterday, the envoy sent by the minister to Dzungaria has returned, according to his inspection, Tsarist Russia really sent troops half a year ago, and has now arrived in the Ili River Valley, as well as the Kazakh Khanate?" That Western Regions powerhouse is no less powerful than ours? Troops were also sent out......"

"Oh...... It seems that foreigners are still a little honest. Mang Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

Prime Minister Zuo took a breath? Said: "The king doesn't have to worry, Daming...... The Ming Kingdom is full of enemies, they fight on multiple fronts, and they want to defeat my Burma? Wish for the moon! ”

"Worried? When did the Lone King get worried? ”

Mangbai snorted softly? Death or not? He also said: "The lonely king has a general sitting on the front line? When foolproof! ”

Mention the general reckless? Mangbai's heart is a little more confident.

Mangfu is the righteous son of the previous Burmese king Anabilon, picked up from the refugee pile, and is considered to be Mangbai's uncle in terms of generation.

Is the reckless grandfather Anabilon a bull character? During his reign, he conquered Lanna and subdued the local powers? The unification of Myanmar was completed, ending the division of Myanmar that had existed since the end of the 16th century.

What stands out? The Burmese king launched the siege of Sareem with great courage, captured and killed the Portuguese colonists who invaded Salian, captured more than 400 Portuguese soldiers, and let their children and grandchildren serve as slaves in Burma and make firearms for the Burmese army.

Mangfu, the commander of the Burmese army who faced off with the Ming army in Jiangtou City, followed Anabilon and fought in all directions, and was the protector of Burma.

Because Mangfu is not a real clan, and he has a strategy and has seen the world, Mangbai handed over the command of the front-line army to him.

Since more than 30 years ago, Mangbai's father, King Talon, gave up the war of foreign expansion that cost the people and money, and devoted himself to restoring and developing the domestic economy, distributing land to landless peasants.

In the face of the ambitious Ming Dynasty, who else can be sent if you don't send Comrade Mangfu, the warlike general who is good at fighting?

However, the usurper is often more sensitive than normal people, and in order to prevent the reckless man from adding to the yellow robe, Mang Bai sent his cronies to the right prime minister to the front line to supervise the battle in the name of support.

For provoking the Ming Dynasty and killing the Ming officials, most of the Burmese from the king to the ministers did not regret it.

In their minds, the original Da Ming is like a soft persimmon, the kind that can rot if you don't pinch it, since this Tianwu Emperor came to power, he has not been honest for a day!

first pacified the thieves and recovered Shenjing, subdued the Mongol tribes, and then destroyed the Yarkand Khanate and the Manchu court in one fell swoop, and then crossed east to Japan to occupy other people's territory, and then served the Nan'an Southern and Northern Dynasties with a thunderous blow, and by the way, collected the Zhancheng State and Zhenla, which were still breathing!

Now he wants to encroach on the territory of Myanmar step by step through three propaganda and six comforts, and he must not be allowed to succeed!

The funny thing is that Mangda, as the king of Burma, is willing to fall and lick the dog for the Ming Dynasty, this kind of monarch does not kill, what do you keep to do!

In such a hostile international environment, Burma's visionary people, including the protector general Mangfu, felt the need to launch a coup change of king to control the situation.

It happened that the British also came to the door to mention the matter, so the two sides were embarrassed, planned a coup d'état together, and came to power in vain!

However, the Burmese people are still relatively clear about the temper of the Ming Dynasty, and they can destroy five countries in a row 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 quickly send troops to support Jiangtou City!"

Mang Bai was still a little uneasy, and decided to pull the British into the water.

Prime Minister Zuo said worriedly: "King, the last time the English sent troops and lost more than 200 people, I'm afraid that they don't want to send troops......"

Mang Bai frowned and said, "Don't want to send troops? They provoked the matter, and they took the benefits to do things! ”

Then Mang Bai turned around and said strongly: "If they are unwilling to send troops, their East India Company will not do business in my Burma!" ”

Prime Minister Zuo was relieved, the king's words were to the point, the British value interests the most, if Myanmar can't bear it, the business they have worked hard in Myanmar for more than 20 years will be yellow!

In this way, Prime Minister Zuo left the hall and went to look for foreign aid.

All the while, they didn't realize how serious this matter really was!

provoked the Ming Dynasty, killed the Ming court officials, and was willing to be a lackey for foreigners, Myanmar is a bad debt, and the Ming Dynasty will definitely find them to settle down!
