More than 6,000 Burmese soldiers did not expect that there would be an ambush here, including the main general Mang Cang, they all fell into a deep sleep, and at this moment, first the earth-shattering thunder exploded, then the war elephants trampled, and finally the fire guns and bows and crossbows on both sides fired in unison, and the rain of projectiles and arrows was overwhelming, and a large number of Burmese troops fell.

"Don't panic!" Awakened by the explosions and screams, Mang Cang immediately understood that he had been ambushed, and he brandished his short knife and shouted loudly to organize his men and horses to meet him, but in the confusion, his voice was soon drowned out by the cries of war elephants and the wails of Burmese soldiers.

There were scurrying figures everywhere, the structure of the Burmese army was completely chaotic, he was shouting, and suddenly the mountains shook behind him, and Mang Cang was suddenly shocked, he hurriedly turned around, and a frightened war elephant knocked him away in an instant, and his body flew upside down and hit the ground heavily.

A mouthful of blood spurted out, only to feel that his chest had been hammered by an iron hammer, and several ribs were broken, and this was not over, he had not come back to his senses, his pupils suddenly dilated, and a black object covered the starry sky in front of him, falling rapidly.

After the war elephant crashed into him, he continued to move forward, his forepaw fell on his reckless face, his eyes bulged out in horror, his mouth opened wide, but he had already lost his voice in extreme fear, and the next moment, the elephant's legs were like stepping on a watermelon, and with a "click", the whole head was cracked, and his facial features quickly collapsed, and blood and brains were squeezed out.

Seeing that the war elephants had run away and not giving the Burmese army a chance to regroup, Ainengqi immediately waved his war knife and shouted in a hissing voice, "Kill them all!" Rush me! ”

The ambush soldiers on both sides roared in unison, and 3,000 men and horses, like fierce tigers, descended from the mountain, swept away the defeated Burmese army in the valley with a devastating momentum.

The Burmese soldiers, who were unable to resist, completely collapsed and could not organize resistance, and most of them were killed, except for a few who fled in all directions.

In this battle, the Burmese army was bloodied, the corpses were all over the valley, more than 6,000 Burmese soldiers died, more than 4,000 people died, and the rest did not know which mountains and forests to get into, while the losses of the anti-Burmese forces were only more than 300 people, which can be said to be an absolute victory.

This battle can be said to have shaken the entire northern Myanmar and changed the situation in the entire northern Myanmar.

Those who fled had little chance of surviving. This is the territory of the Shan people, after all, the Burmese rule and oppress them, they dare not offend the Burmese on the surface, but when they meet the lonely Burmese, they will not let go of the opportunity to commit a black hand.

After defeating Mangcang's main force, and even Mangcang himself was trampled to death by elephants, Ai Nengqi did not stop, he hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield, and then rushed to Xibo, and defeated the baggage team of the Burmese Army's Eastern Route Army, and forced Yang Fuzhen, a Shan Tusi who secretly communicated to Donghu, to commit suicide and elect a new Tusi.

At this time, the news that the main force of the Eastern Route Army was defeated had been learned by Bai Mang, who had pounced on the air.

This news frightened the Burmese army, Bai Mang did not dare to divide his troops after Meng Nai waited for the Western Route Army, and 20,000 people rushed towards Xibo, but Ai Nengqi took a small road again, turned back to Meng Nai, and took Bai Mang around in the mountains.

The Burmese army had difficulty in delivering supplies, so they could only ask the nearby Shan Tusi to provide food, and at this time, because Ainengqi fought a beautiful battle at Wak Peak, many Shan Tusi had other ideas, and most of them were unwilling to provide food for various reasons.

At this time, the advantage of Ainengqi hiding the grain and grass in the mountains in advance was reflected.

Every time the anti-Burmese armed forces arrive at a supply point, they can get about 10 days of food, and they do not have to worry about food supplies, they act quickly, they carry guerrilla attacks in the mountains, look for opportunities, and from time to time give the Burmese army a little bit, so that they are reckless and helpless.

Although the Burmese army did not divide its troops, it slowly turned into a greedy snake as it wandered around the mountains, and its body was gradually stretched and even broken, and the entire army was also exhausted.

In July, Ainengchi seized an opportunity to move to the tail of the Burmese army, launched two successive attacks, and killed more than 4,000 Burmese troops.

The anti-Burmese forces piled up the corpses of the Burmese army as high as a hill, which not only frightened the Burmese army, but also began to destabilize the nearby Shan Tusi.

The Ava Dynasty of the Shan people was wiped out by the Burmese, and the Shan people were also driven to northern Myanmar, they were originally vassals of the Ming Dynasty, but the Ming Dynasty did not say anything about the Burmese attack on the Ava Dynasty, which is also the reason why most of the Shan people behaved coldly when the Ming Dynasty entered northern Myanmar again.

They don't believe in the Ming Dynasty very much, and it is impossible to listen to a few words of mouth cannons, and their brains are hot against Burma, but now it is different, the victory of Ainengqi has made the Tusi of the Shan people see the incompetent side of the Burmese people, and many people feel that they can get rid of the control of the Burmese people.

By the end of August, Bai Mang, who had failed one after another, had to admit defeat and led less than 20,000 people to withdraw from northern Myanmar in a hurry. The fourth encirclement and suppression of the rebels in northern Burma by Taungoo failed after losing 10,000 men.

As soon as Taungoo's army withdrew from northern Burma, Ainengqi led his army back to Mon Nai and began to contact the Shan Tusi in the north, telling them not to pay taxes to Taungoo, preparing to establish power in Mon Nai, and then recapture the Shan city of Ava to the south.

After Bai Mang's defeat and return to Ava, the king of Donghu Pingdali was furious, took Bai Mang's military power, and wanted to kill him to vent his anger, but was stopped by the minister.

However, the rebels killed 10,000 of him and instigated the independence of the Shan people in northern Burma, but it was difficult for King Donghu to swallow it.

Although he knew that this was manipulation behind the Ming Dynasty, he could not condemn the Ming Dynasty. Donghu can't even put down the rebels supported by the Ming Dynasty, so how can it be good to involve the Ming Dynasty.

King Donghu hated this hegemonic empire that subverted the regimes of other countries by despicable means, he could only swallow this breath, and then organize an army to prepare to personally conquer, and he must eradicate Ainengchi and stabilize the Shan people in northern Burma.

Although the Ming Dynasty had a great conflict with him on the Nanyang issue, he was not the main enemy of the Ming Dynasty.

Driven by the genes of the great unification of the Central Plains Empire, the main enemy of the Ming Dynasty was only the Jin State, which occupied the land of Guanzhong. Without the destruction of the Jin State, the Ming Dynasty would not be considered a unified empire.

Originally, the attention of the Ming Dynasty would not fall on Donghu, but he formed an alliance with the Jin State, and the Ming Dynasty's strategic attention to Donghu was immediately strengthened.

This directly led to the Ming Dynasty beginning to attack Donghu, but this time the protagonist was not the army, but the Ming Dynasty's Jinyi Guard.

Except for Ainengqi's weapons, grain and grass, which were secretly provided by Wang Yan's Yunnan governor, the meticulous work of inciting the Shan people was all Jinyiwei's people.

King Donghu did not give up and wanted to carry out the fifth encirclement and suppression of northern Burma, but he did not expect that the army and materials were not ready, northern Burma had not yet been pacified, and the Mon people in southern Myanmar had problems again.

Donghu is a multi-ethnic country, and if it is not handled well, it is easy to be chaotic and even vendettas.

The Mon people are the top five ethnic groups in the vicinity of Donghu, and the original established a powerful Bago Dynasty in southern Burma, and the Ava Dynasty established by the Shan people in northern Burma, competing for hegemony for 40 years.

The Bago Dynasty of the Mon and the Ava Dynasty of the Shan were destroyed by the Taungoo Dynasty of the Burmese people, and finally the unification was completed by the Taungoo.

After deciding to take action against Donghu, the army could not exert its strength, so Wang Yan could only think of other ways, and knowing that he would not be defeated in a hundred battles, Wang Yan immediately asked Jinyiwei to start collecting information about Donghu and analyzing the history of Donghu and the domestic situation.

After obtaining a large amount of information, Jinyiwei took over the matter of dealing with Donghu in order to obtain funds and resources from the imperial court.

After the fall of the Manchu Dynasty, the resources that Jinyiwei could share were reduced by half, so Jinyiwei was very dissatisfied internally, in order to earn a treatment for his subordinates, Hu Weizong and Yu Taichu found Wang Yan after studying the situation in Donghu.

The two calculated an account for Wang Yan, saying that as long as 500,000 taels of silver, they could help the imperial court solve Donghu.

Wang Yan was very interested in Jinyiwei's proposal, but the Ministry of War did not do it, because it was tantamount to moving the interests of the Ministry of War. The Imperial Court must allocate funds to the Ministry of War to purchase weapons and equipment, and the Ministry of War can share the oil and water from the hands of the military workshop, how can it let the Jinyi Guard be confused.

The Ministry of War was very tough, thinking that this matter should not be handled by Jinyiwei, but Jinyiwei was not jealous, and within a few days, he collected evidence of corruption among officials of the Ministry of War and sent it to the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

The officials of the Criminal Department did not give any reaction, but the Metropolitan Procuratorate was a Qingshui Yamen, and the imperial historians of the Imperial Observatory had already seen that these bureaucrats were not pleasing to the eye, and a book of folds was sent to the cabinet.

This can be regarded as a warning to the Ministry of War, you can't eat meat, Jinyiwei doesn't even have to drink soup.

In the end, after Hu Weizong, Chen Bangyan, and Chen Yonghua, the president of the Wude, met each other, the opposition of the military department fell.

After Jinyiwei got the funding of 500,000 taels, he began to lay out in Donghu, Ai Nengqi can only be regarded as a pawn of the northern line, and in addition to the northern line, Jinyiwei also has the southern line.

Their goal was to fan the Shan in the north and the Mon in the south to rebel against Burmese rule, and as long as there was chaos in both the north and south, then how could the Donghu state still have the energy to cooperate with the Jin state.

To do this, you only need to use the influence of the Ming Dynasty, as well as some silver money, and these silver money, can only be regarded as investment, the Ming Dynasty supported the people, overthrew the Burmese regime, the establishment of a new regime, is it to sign a trade treaty with the Ming Dynasty, allow the Ming Dynasty to open mines and do business here, etc., in short, there will be an exchange of interests, and it is not supported in vain.

After all, there are many ambitious people, why did Jin Yiwei choose you, in addition to having strength, you also have to bring benefits to the Ming Dynasty after you succeed.

At this time, Wang Dana, the king of the Ming Dynasty's Jinyi Guard, was brought into a house by several soldiers of the Meng tribe.

"Chief, the guests have brought!"

There were several Mon men sitting in the house, led by an old man in his fifties, who was Si Mizhan, the nephew of the last king of the Bago Dynasty.

When several people saw Wang Dana come in, they immediately stood up one after another, and Si Mizhan greeted him with a big smile.
