Chapter 737 Yongli, win!
An army is marching through the mountains of northern Burma.
Standing in the middle of the team, you can't see the end in front of you, and you can't see the tail in back. It's so vast, with tens of thousands of people and horses. The front army has already reached the banks of the Awa River in Mu State, Myanmar, and the rear army has just started.
Exit Hanlong Pass within the Tengyue Department of Yunnan Province.
Zhu Youlang, Emperor Zhaozong of the Ming Dynasty, was also among this team. He was lying in a large red-painted nanmu coffin, carried by sixteen sturdy men, and came lifelessly.
Wu Guogui, who personally saw Yongli Emperor Bintian off, was wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning, riding a big white horse, surrounded by a group of cuirassiers and generals of the Wu family army, and walked behind the coffin of Emperor Yongli with a look of grief and indignation - he was
This time he led the expedition in the name of avenging Emperor Yongli, so the expression on this old face must show the indignation in his heart.
He was wearing Xiaojia and carrying a coffin on an expedition, so of course he couldn't smile.
Moreover, the Toungoo dynasty of Myanmar was indeed so hateful. They actually kidnapped Emperor Yongli and gave it to his adoptive father Wu Sangui. This was treasonous! The Toungoo Kingdom of Myanmar was a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and the ministers kidnapped the monarch and dedicated it to the enemy.
Putting the monarch to death. Although it was Wu Guogui who sent Yongli to Bintian with his own hands, it was Toungoo who actually killed Yongli... Wu Guogui was an executioner. If you have grievances or grudges, you cannot seek revenge from the executioner.
!
Wu Guogui thought to himself: "If I don't strangle him and let him arrive in Beijing alive, according to Qingyao's rules, he will be executed in Lingchi! Therefore, there are only three enemies who killed Yongli. One is Obai. At that time, Kangxi
Khan has not yet pro-government, he is still a little baby, but if he does, he will definitely kill Master Yongli! The second is the old man (Wu Sangui), if he doesn't ask King Dongxu for someone, he may not be able to do so.
Send people to Yunnan; thirdly, King Baimang of Toungoo... Although this guy is dead, his grandson Mahamala is still there, so he has to shoulder this blood feud!"
"Awa..." Wu Guogui whispered the name of the capital of Toungoo Kingdom. The capital of Toungoo Kingdom was originally located in Toungoo in Lower Burma. However, due to the death of Toungoo King Mang Yingli under the brutal tyrant Mang Yinglong,
Later, unable to maintain the situation, he was defeated by Arakan and was captured and subjugated. Later, King Liangyuan, the son of Mang Yinglong, turned the tide and restored the country by establishing his capital in Awa in Upper Myanmar, saving half of the rivers and mountains in Upper Myanmar. Later, King Liangyuan's son Awa
Nabilong regained Myanmar and reunified Myanmar. However, after the reunification, the Toungoo Kingdom of Myanmar was no longer as strong as before, and the capital Toungoo was never returned. It has been living in Ava City, and the life is quite comfortable.
, the national power became weaker and weaker. Therefore, the lords who were far away from Ava did not obey the command of the Ava royal court. King Toungoo gradually became the lord of Ava, although he still controlled the fertile plains near Ava.
, there is no vassal who can take his place for the time being. But he is no longer able to mobilize the entire Burmese army to resist the Tomorrow Army, and most likely has nowhere to escape. He should stick to the Ava Castle and look forward to the rainy season in Burma.
Retreat the enemy...
Wu Guogui's Chinese army turned another bend on the mountain road, and what appeared in front of him was still mountains. Seeing the narrow mountain road winding into the valley, and the long marching team passing through it, it seemed that they would never reach it.
At the end, Wu Guogui was inevitably a little impatient. He turned around and shouted: "Lao Gao! How far is it from Ava City?"
"Back to the general, there are still two hundred miles!" A gray-bearded veteran, half a horse behind Wu Guogui, immediately replied loudly, "We have now entered the direct jurisdiction of King Ava City, and it is estimated that we will be here soon.
There was a fight."
This old general's name is Gao Dejie, and he is also a strong general under Wu Sangui. In the original history, he once faced off against Yue Le on the battlefield in Jiangxi and won many times. However, in the end he failed in the struggle for power with his subordinate Han Daren.
He died of depression...
But now he has received a good salary and has become Wu Guogui's deputy general. Together with him, he oversees the 70,000-strong army to conquer Ava in the south.
In fact, the war against Myanmar's Toungoo has been secretly prepared for several years. Zhu Heji had already hinted that Wu Guogui would have this day, and he also gave him enough military expenses and gave him several years to fight on the border between Myanmar and Myanmar.
The Tengyue Hall hoarded grain and grass, and bribed the chieftains in the Mu State in northern Myanmar - the original base of the Toungoo Dynasty in Myanmar was Lower Burma, Awa was originally the territory of the Shan people, and the Mu State in the northeast of Awa was Han
In the territory where the Yi people lived together, many chieftains were "free loyal ministers". On the one hand, they surrendered to Ava, and on the other hand, they also paid tribute to Kunming.
After the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, they became more respectful to Wu Yingxiong, who became King Pingxi of the Ming Dynasty, and Wu Yingqi, who became the general Pingxi of the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, the Wu family's army attacking Myanmar made smooth progress in Mubang, and encountered almost no resistance along the way. It was only delayed for a while outside the city of Mubang. The troops guarding Mubang City were troops sent by the King of Ava, but they did not wait for the Wu family's army to launch the siege.
, and used rocket launchers and Weiyuan artillery to blast away, the Taungoo army defending the city was scared away by a reconnaissance hot air balloon...
However, the Toungoo Dynasty should still have relatively strong control around the Ava King's City, and there might be a fierce battle!
At this moment, in the royal city of Ava, King Mahamala of Toungoo was sitting high on the throne, looking angrily at his brother Mang Along, who was also the governor of Mubang.
Mang Along came to plead guilty to King Mahamala - because he abandoned and defended Mubang City, the northern gateway to Ava City, without fighting! This was not the reason that made Mahamala angry the most.
What made King Toungoo most angry was that Mang Along actually said that the invading Ming army was led by Emperor Yongli who died twenty years ago... and that Emperor Yongli had become
Zombie, this time sitting in a coffin, with the underworld soldiers coming to the Toungu Kingdom for revenge!
"Brother Wang, what I say is true. You must believe me! I saw Yongli climb out of the coffin and board a flying ball as big as a flying ball in Mubang City, and then fly hundreds of feet
High in the air! Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise I would be dead right now..."
"Shut up!" King Mahamela was furious. Who is this person? Why did his father leave him such a lucky brother? He actually said that Emperor Yongli, who had been dead for twenty years, had become a
A zombie that can only fly!
"Put him in prison!" King Mahamala wanted to kill this younger brother, but because there are many royal family veterans and eminent monks who protect the country in the palace, they would not agree to kill a noble prince.
.
After having his brother put into prison, King Mahamala turned to look at an old monk wearing a yellow monk's robe, with one shoulder and one arm exposed - this was the monk king of the Toungoo Dynasty, and also the king of Mahamala.
Great uncle, it is said that he has great magical power!
What is popular in Myanmar is Theravada Buddhism. Just by the name, you can tell that it is very high-end - Theravada. It is higher than Mahayana, which is just a popular product! The high-end Theravada Buddhism takes the high-level route, so in countries where Theravada Buddhism is popular
Among them, the status of monks is very high, and the senior monks among them are basically from princes and nobles. Therefore, the influence of the monks on politics is also great... The king of Mahamala does not dare to offend the magic power.
A profound monk.
"There can't be any flying zombies," the great monk said confidently. "Someone must be pretending to be a ghost. As long as the poor monk gets to the front of the formation, he will have a way to break it."
Then don't worry.
Although King Mahamala has been the king for ten years, he has never had the experience of commanding a battle on the battlefield... He has so much military strategy and nowhere to display it, it's really a bit itchy!
Now that he heard the great monk's guarantee, he felt relieved, so he loudly ordered: "Gather all the elephant soldiers, artillery, and infantry... When the Ming army arrives, they will form an array on the banks of the Ava River.
Chapter completed!
