Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 30 Preparing to go to Australia
"What? Your Highness, are you going to Australia?" Li Dingguo really panicked when he heard this.

Bai Mingxiu could only lie: "Yeah, today I, Da Ming, was able to find a chance to breathe. I shouted out the old thief Wu. In fact, the biggest contributors are the Australian people of Daming. It is rumored that there are only [-] children of Da Ming in Australia, but they have created so many people." They have trained such an elite army. I want to see it with my own eyes, maybe I can know why they are so strong, and how to govern the people when we regain the world in the future.”

Bai Mingxiu added: "Besides, Australia's hard work has contributed a lot to the king, and the Australians hope to be king for 200 years. The father has also been frightened too much over the years. Australia is alone overseas, and there is no enemy who can match it. It is known to outsiders, such as Xiandao Penglai and the abbot. In this case, I want to let my father stay in Australia first and set it as the accompanying capital. And I will travel to Australia first to see if I can attract more Austrian aid and troops. Help the King of Jin."

Li Dingguo frowned, and said, "If the rebel army of the world knows that the king is far away from thousands of miles away, the morale of the anti-Qing will be dealt a huge blow. I wonder if Your Highness has considered this point."

Bai Mingxiu nodded: "Of course there are, so at this moment, it is inconvenient to tell the outside world that the father moved to Australia, just say that he is recuperating in the Awa Palace. When I return, I will preside over the anti-Qing Dynasty in the name of the prince to supervise the country." It is a big event, and then I will announce to the outside world that my father is temporarily stationed in Australia. Although I may not be convincing in the name of the prince, I want to invite the king of Jin and the righteous people from all over the world. I will save my father in Ava and join you in destroying Burma. The defeat of Wu Sangui in Larong the day before yesterday was written into a storybook, and let these righteous men spread it to various regions. Including things like King Jin and your two famous kings, we must let the world know-the Qing army is not terrible, the Ming Dynasty Zuo is not in decline, there is still Zhu Cixuan, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, and King Li Jin, the loyal and courageous king, the world can be safe!"

Li Dingguo clasped his fists quickly after hearing this, and said: "Your Highness is serious, what you do is just a man's duty."

Bai Mingxiu said: "Yes, it's a pity that most people in this world can't do it."

Speaking of this, Li Dingguo knew that Bai Mingxiu was determined to go to Australia.Moreover, as Bai Mingxiu said, the current situation is relatively good for Nanming, and the National Restoration Army has just shown its edge. As long as Li Dingguo does not make a big mistake, he can lead the National Restoration Army to occupy Yunnan.

Bai Mingxiu continued: "Someone from Australia told me that next they will provide more guns, and even a large amount of gold and other supplies to the Ming Dynasty Restoration Army. With these, King Jin should be able to manage Burma and Yunnan more easily. We have recruited more than 3 people under Wu Sangui this time. According to the law of the Restoration Army, they should be trained and transformed into loyal and brave soldiers. In addition to the Burmese army and chieftain army, even if the Qing army rises ten times Ten thousand troops come to attack, I believe King Jin can also defeat them."

Bai Mingxiu thought for a while, and then said: "By the way, the guard company followed me to Australia, which is a waste of combat power. I will leave two platoons of troops and leave all the heavy machine guns to you, King Jin. Continue to stay in Ava and train the troops."

Li Dingguo saw that Bai Mingxiu had arranged all the affairs properly, so he no longer worried, he said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, with the matter of Myanmar and Yunnan, I will not fail His Highness's entrustment. Your Highness is also curious about Australia Under the circumstances, it is better to let the dog follow His Highness, and he can also serve His Highness. The minister intends to take a short rest and immediately lead the National Restoration Army to occupy Yunnan. Judging from the news in the past few days, the chieftains know that we have won a great victory in northern Burma, and they can't wait. It's time to raise the flag of rebellion, Wu Sangui's main force has already collapsed, we can move fast enough at this time, and within about three months, we can recover Kunming."

Bai Mingxiu said with a smile: "It's so good. I have King Jin in military affairs and Wu Min in politics. I can rest assured."

There was a very different atmosphere in the camp of the Ming army at all times, which had never been seen before.Standing in the camp, Bai Mingxiu looked at the soldiers of the Ming army who were patrolling in and out, and his heart was agitated.His first step in this era can be said to be very solid. Next, he will continue to use a sledgehammer to smash the seemingly huge Manchu Empire into pieces, rebuild the bones and spirit of the Han dynasty, and make the country rapid industrialization.

Two days later, several large ships claiming to be from Australia arrived, bringing Li Dingguo 1200 line infantry regiments in red uniforms, who obviously did not look like ordinary troops. This was the royal guard that Bai Mingxiu had just obtained.They got the designation of the Fourth Regiment of the Line Infantry, but also had an extra title-the Fourth Regiment of the Line Infantry and Guards.

The Fourth Guards Regiment immediately added to Li Dingguo's army. At the same time, the Third Regiment of Line Infantry in Li Dingguo's hands was withdrawn and returned to Ava as the main army to suppress the colonial capital. Compilation and training of soldiers who surrendered.

In terms of weapons, Bai Mingxiu was lucky enough to draw out a military engineer in October to lead the production of the Ava military factory. Now Bai Mingxiu put the Napoleon gun paper here again.For more than a month, the Ava Arsenal has produced as many as 10 flintlock muskets.The goal of military engineers is to eventually reach an annual output of 4000 rifles, making it the largest military factory in Asia.

The Ming army captured more than 30 shotguns from the Qing army, and Bai Mingxiu gritted his teeth and exchanged them for [-] flintlock muskets. This made the number of muskets held by the Ming Dynasty Restoration Army exceed [-].Zhao Xu will train another [-] line infantry regiments for Bai Mingxiu to support Li Dingguo's war needs.

Bai Mingxiu also returned to Ava and started his own preparations for going to Australia.

Yongli was almost ecstatic when he heard that he could leave Burma and go to Australia, where there is no enemy at all.Soon, Yongli and a group of relatives of officials who were willing to leave boarded the big boat provided by Bai Mingxiu and went down the river.This time, Wu Min followed Bai Mingxiu all the way south.

When they came to the Irrawaddy Delta, Wu Min smiled and pointed to a piece of land and said to Bai Mingxiu: "Your Highness, that's where it is."

Bai Mingxiu looked at the barren land and sighed, "This is Yangon?"

He turned to Wu Min and said, "You want to build a city from scratch here, and the support I can give you is limited."

Wu Min smiled and said: "Your Highness, all the resources I have are enough. In Avachen, I can control two thousand Ming Dynasty Restoration Army, and Your Majesty has left two frigates for my ministers. In terms of labor, there are tens of thousands of Burmese people who can use it. His Highness also left tens of thousands of taels of gold as funds for his highness, and his highness's "Ocean Company" merchant fleet, which can trade Burmese products to India for sale, and the income will not be small. Before long, His Highness will be in Here's a look at a busy port and commercial city."
