Lord of Ming Dynasty

According to the estimates of the generals of the Ming army, the enemy killed and injured almost 500 people, which is five times the number of casualties of the Ming army, but there are still people emerging from the depths of the woods, and the sound of the drowsy horn horn can be heard from time to time .

This Ming army unit is a supply team of Li Chengdong's expedition to Burma led by the Southern Ming army.

Li Chengdong has been in Myanmar for four months, and the first part of the journey was overwhelming, and he went down several Burmese border passes and cities. According to Zhang Qiang's order, Li Chengdong almost killed all the Burmese indigenous people on the border, even those faces. People who looked like Han people were all killed, leaving only some leading parties and some Han people or indigenous tribes who were originally loyal to the Ming Dynasty to guide them, translate, deal with those tribes that were unwilling to surrender, and pass on information.

Chapter 574 Li Chengdong's Battle in Burma 2

From the many battles between the Ming army and Burma during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, it can be seen that the Ming army was powerful, but every time the Ming Dynasty fought back in self-defense. When the troops beat the enemy out, everything will be fine. When the enemy comes in again and again, he is furious, and then sends troops to beat him out again, takes advantage of the situation to attack Burma, and then withdraws again.

And from the history of our country, this is the case in the face of the invasion of these small countries in Southeast Asia. Why are the Chinese Han people so weak?

It may have something to do with the comfort in the character of the Han people. They don't seek to solve the problem completely, they always muddle along, are satisfied with reality, endure hardships, and dare not show their tough side, or they are not bloody at all. This is the case when Japan invaded. This is the case when Nan Xiaoguo came in. They always wanted to bully their own people. Father and brother killed each other for a little bit of foundation.

Patience is a good thing, mourning for peace is a good thing, mourning is not a typo, but this is what it means, peace is made by Chinese Han people, not by fighting, but in the world, the real peace in this world is fought .

Why did Zhang Qiang appoint Li Chengdong as the general of the expedition to Burma?

Because you can see what Li Chengdong has done. When he was a general of the Dashun Army, he was unknown. The god possessed him, and he was extremely cruel to the Han people. It can be said that he accounted for 80.00% of the massacres done by the Qing army in the south, tens of thousands of people, 10+ people, and killed them without frowning. No one in the Nanming generals is his opponent.

But his conscience found that when he took refuge in Nanming, he was helpless in the face of the Qing army. He had 10,000+ troops in his hand, but he fought in a mess, as if he had been cursed, and he was not as brave as before.

But this time in the face of the Burmese conquest, he seemed to have been helped by a god at the beginning. He swept across hundreds of miles of land in Burma, burned, killed and looted, as if he had returned to the time when he followed the Qing army, and he marched and fought in an orderly manner. He had no choice but to bulldoze and burn the cities one by one. Even Li Dingguo, who sent him there, lamented that he was not as good as him in fighting the Burmese.

Even though he had penetrated hundreds of miles into Myanmar and occupied a huge territory, Li Chengdong was still indomitable. He continued to attack the vicinity of Mandela despite the pleas of Mangbai of Myanmar.

If it weren't for the lack of troops and supplies, weapons and ammunition, he would have taken Mandela City long ago.

At this time, the 10,000+ troops and civilians he brought over were distributed in the vast mountains and lands from the border of the Ming Dynasty to Mandela within a few hundred miles, and they firmly controlled the land.

Li Dingguo separated the 10,000+ captives captured in the early stage and sent them to Burma in batches, serving as civilian husbands and defensive troops, as well as the common people, farming, building houses, building bridges and opening roads. Zhang Qiang meant to send these captives to Burma. Let these Han people, native chieftains, Ming army, and Qing army Han people take root in Myanmar and completely occupy the land of Myanmar, so as not to repeat the mistakes of the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming army withdrew, and within a few months, the Burmese army fought again. Going back to the Yunnan border, wantonly burning, killing, looting, occupying territory, and destabilizing the Ming Dynasty, the Huaxia Army will not let them do this.

Although the Han Chinese courts have experienced strange climates, dense forests, far away from the center, difficult management, and a large number of barbarians because of the strange climate in these places, but the Huaxia Army has Zhang Qiang, a person who has traveled through later generations. No matter how hard it is, these indigenous people must be completely wiped out. The United States is very good, except for a deserted and more obedient and friendly Canada, a weak and young Mexico, and Cuba is just a small trouble, and there is a sea across the United States. The islands around the United States are all their own. Unlike the islands around China, there are a lot of problems, this dispute comes, that dispute, a powerful country should be quiet around.

If these small countries do not cause trouble, but live in peace with China, it will complement each other, but how is it possible? Even the neighbors of ordinary people often have quarrels and are often uncomfortable. It is impossible to live in harmony, but in a stable Under the regime, neighbors can tolerate each other and help each other because they look up and down, but it is different from country to country. Their interests are always one million square kilometers of land, or if they lose face, their own people will not If I forgive you, I will look down on you. Can your rule be stable?

Of course, China is a big country, and many times it likes to swell its face to pretend to be fat, and most of them don’t take it seriously. If you are bullied, you can’t get anything from such a small country. It’s just some poor villages. What you pay and what you get back are not worthwhile. What they want is just some small profits. At most, when they are annoyed, they will beat these small countries regardless of their interests. After they are done, they still have to get along with the small countries.

And Xiaoguo is a white-eyed wolf, people don't have to worry about anything, beat you up, and you won't bother me later, or you can't do anything to me after all the trouble, just like the punks of later generations, they bully others and are bullied People can't kill them, that would be breaking the law, and after breaking the law, what is lost is the dignity and majesty of the law, and what is lost is the face of a big country.

The nature of this is different, so those who kill people must go to jail, must go to jail, and must pay for their lives, but the gangsters are afraid at the beginning, and then even if they kill someone, they walk away or go to jail, they may not necessarily lose their lives. After they came out, everyone was even more afraid of them.

Just like officials go to school for further studies, get promoted and raise their salaries after they come out, going to jail is to increase the value and power of the gangsters, they are eager to go to further studies, and then come out more promising, dissatisfied, dissatisfied I have been in prison , Be careful, I will kill your whole family, so the little gangsters are even more powerful, and the people who are bullied can only swallow their anger under such circumstances, secretly sighing that they are unlucky.

When the big country was attacked, the big country kept quiet, but it fueled their arrogance. You see, they were afraid of me and did not dare to do anything to me, so they appeared even more powerful in front of other small countries.

Other small countries thought about it, oops, why didn’t I think of it, so they imitated it, and the effect of imitation was good. The big country really didn’t dare to do anything to them. If you fight here, your big country will lose its soldiers and generals. Even if you win, there is no profit to be made. , As for the people being killed and the city being breached, no one can control it. Anyway, if I can defeat a big country one day, the people will also applaud me.

Why not do such a thing with low risk and high profit?

Therefore, all these small countries in Southeast Asia that border China do this. They are not as harmful as the barbarians on the grasslands, but they can't be shaken off by dog ​​skin plasters, and they always make the courts of big countries feel headaches. At this time, some Some people say, let’s give them some money so that they can settle down. Some people think it’s okay. Anyway, the money is not in their pockets, it’s deducted from the people. The right is mine.

These small countries have become another blood-sucking worm on the people of big countries.

Today, Zhang Qiang's Huaxia Army, who has mastered the entire southern regime of Ming Dynasty, does not believe that they are like this. The Wanli Ming Dynasty and the Myanmar War are only a matter of 20 years, and it is not far away. These ethnic minorities on the border often rebel when they are wrong. After the rebellion is over, they can escape to Myanmar.

Fighting, you can only destroy them. It is not enough to destroy the country. Just like the United States, it can be completely exterminated. If it is not my race, its heart will be different, and it is not the people on my territory. Many people in small Southeast Asian countries like Myanmar are Han Chinese or ethnic minorities in the border areas. Han Chinese culture can come here, but it cannot become the ruling culture.

The culture of Myanmar is also deeply rooted and has a long history. If the aborigines are not eliminated, the character of the Han people will not be friendly to the Han regime after they come. The Han people didn't like it, so the country and regime they established became the lackeys of the old Americans and the accomplices of the Japanese.

When the Japanese expeditioned to Burma, they left countless seeds in Baodao, North Korea, and even further away in Malay, Indonesia, and Australia. These countries in later generations can be regarded as the Altaic people of the Japanese lineage. Greater East Asia wants the Altaic language system to cover the whole of Asia, not the Chinese language family.

No matter how powerful the ethnic groups on the grasslands are, their language family is still Chinese. Due to frequent contacts and constant wars, they have a great chance of being assimilated, but these people in Southeast Asia cannot be assimilated because of their different concepts and language families.

The Han people can only be assimilated when they come.

What the executioner Li Chengdong was sent to do is actually the same as Laomei's conquest of the Americas.

The man who commanded the transport team to transport food and weapons to Li Chengdong was Li Chengdong's adopted son. At that time in the Ming Dynasty, especially in the last years, that general did not accept a few adopted sons.

The attacks of the barbarians were like a tide, and the waves did not subside. Even these veterans aged 25 to 32 years old who had gone through hundreds of battles in the Ming Dynasty complained and couldn't resist. Cramping, numb mechanically waving the weapon in his hand, in this state, the casualties inevitably increased, the general had to use civilian men to replace some seriously injured or exhausted soldiers.

Although the civilian husbands are strong, their combat effectiveness is not as tenacious as the regular soldiers. If they can't cooperate, they will fall down quickly and gradually decrease. The defense line may be breached.

At this moment, only the sound of whimpering horns sounded, and the native Burmese warriors retreated like a tide, and everyone felt relieved and sat down on the ground one after another.

Panting heavily, the dismounted cavalry behind them ran over and helped the soldiers composed of peasants and soldiers to the rear to rest. They put on their armor, held arquebus guns, swords and spears, and took over the defense of the soldiers.

Chapter 575

As the hustle and bustle quieted down, bursts of bloody smell began to linger in the air, mixed with the bursts of rotten smell of dead leaves and rotten branches in the forest, and penetrated into people's nostrils, combined with the smell of gunpowder smoke, it was like just entering the forest. Like an old house, the nostrils began to flutter, opened a few times violently, breathed in a lot of such smells, and then got used to it. At this time, not many people actually pay attention to these smells.

With the sound of rapid drums, a group of about a thousand people dressed in disorder, but definitely not the kind of poor indigenous strong men who didn't even have clothes. This group of people lined up in the open area of ​​the forest, wearing leather armor and iron armor. , wrapped in fur, with a bamboo hat made of branches on top of the head, the hat is black, and the atmosphere of thousands of people wearing the hats is very depressing, and it also seems that the team on the opposite side is very coercive, domineering, and neatly lined up , remained silent, showing that this group of people is the enemy's elite force.

This group of people held bamboo spears in the front row, wooden shields covered with fur in the back row, and slender guard swords in their hands, and the Ming army style firecrackers in the back row, but It is rather rough. Depending on the situation, it is made by myself. Maybe it is because the blacksmith did not make it very hard, or the craftsmanship is not good enough. Many places look rough, and some places are even tied with straw ropes and iron hoops.

Seeing such a situation, the generals of the Ming army felt very cold, and it seemed that they could not escape death today.

The surrounding area is full of indigenous people, and the terrain in the forest is unfamiliar. The baggage team only walked this road once, and they are not familiar with the terrain and environment around the road. Even if they escape, they don’t know where they can escape. enemy country.

More than a dozen family generals who were guarding the general were already pale, and quietly exchanged glances with each other. One family member leaned on the general of the Ming army, "Young master, my subordinates will protect you from protruding. The green hills left are here. I am not afraid that there will be no firewood." , we can't throw our lives here, go back to the camp first, gather our forces and then attack this group of enemy troops."

The general of the Ming army shook his head. This is not a question of whether to flee or not, but that there is no chance. The enemy retreated with three to 4000 indigenous strongmen. Maybe they are not the opponents of the Ming army. Help people who are familiar with the terrain play them *********, then it will turn from an advantage to a disadvantage.

Stick to it, only stick to it, it's a day's journey away from the next barracks, if you don't see them transporting the baggage after a day, you will definitely send horses to investigate, and then you will send reinforcements, but you don't know when the reinforcements will arrive.

According to the explanation, the army has already killed all the aborigines nearby, so there won't be so many people coming, but there are tens of thousands of enemies in front of them, where did this come from?

It seems that the enemy already knew that the Ming army could not defeat the Ming army, and began to deal with the Ming army secretly.

"Come here, unload the truck, distribute the weapons, armor, and arrows, and lift out the cannon." The general of the Ming army gritted his teeth and had to use the weapons and equipment transported this time.

The remaining more than 50 peasants got up one after another under the guidance of the soldiers, and unloaded the weapons and armor on the mule-drawn cart, and then each received a weapon, including a spear, a sword and a shield, and Bows and arrows, in the blink of an eye, the hands of the peasants also changed from some miscellaneous weapons to sophisticated weapons and armor made in the Huaxia Army workshop.

The 100 wounded with multiple injuries and minor injuries were dragged to the side of the cart, and the lost weapons were piled aside. The remaining people began to replace with new standard weapons and equipment, armed themselves, and defended their way.

The generals of the Ming army divided civilian husbands, archers, some cavalry, and the slightly wounded into several small teams, arranged them into a team, and guarded them at the back. They assigned some wounded soldiers and some uninjured soldiers together, Form a team and put them in the back, relying on old trees and dense bushes to defend the back.

He took his servants and some cavalry to defend the way.

All the remaining soldiers were organized, replaced with spears, shields, firecrackers, and cannons, and faced the enemy's more than a thousand freshmen's elite troops.

Everyone surrounded the city with an irregular defensive circle, ready to resist the enemy's attack.

In China, the Burmese battle formations and equipment can only be regarded as the level of bravery. Two or 300 people of the Ming army can barely cope with them and beat them to death. But now after a long battle, everyone is very tired. The enemy's strength is several times that of our own. The Ming army lost more than half of its troops, and more than half of the only 400 people went into battle with injuries. It's getting bigger.

Silent people are the most frightening. Silent soldiers must be the elite. The enemy's army, without saying a word, is silently advancing towards the Ming army, but it is only a few steps away from a hundred meters away.

If it is in the wilderness that the distance between the two armies fighting is about three or four miles, approaching each other, probing, artillery attack, scout harassment, bow and arrow shooting, and a series of preparations, the two sides can get so close, but in the dense forest Inside, as soon as everyone appeared and looked around, 30 meters was already the limit distance. No matter how far away, no one could see each other due to the occlusion of trees. The previous combat distance between the two sides was about [-] meters away. Really desperate.
