Xinjie, located at the confluence of the Daying River and the Irrawaddy River, is also the central hub of northern Myanmar, and its strategic position is very important, so Myanmar has deployed heavy troops here, and then when the Fu Han army mobilized troops, Myanmar also strengthened its troops in Xinjie, and now there are about 30,000 Burmese troops.

As the general of the Burmese army stationed in Xinjie, Noyaji, he was born in the Burmese ethnic group, and is now the confidant and favorite general of the current Donghu King Daning, so he is also the general of the town guard in Mengyang in Myanmar today, which more or less has the meaning of guarding against the attack of the Ningchu army, but for Noyaji, he is really unwilling to fight, let alone fight with this behemoth in the east.

For the current Tungoo Dynasty, the authority of the central government has been weakened, the local powerful factions have gradually expanded, and the contradictions between the Mon, Shan and Burmese have also expanded, so it is almost self-defeating to fight against the strong enemy in the east at this time.

Of course, Noyaji naturally knew about last year's border disputes, but the real masterminds behind these incidents were not the royal family, but those local Tusi of Mengyang and Mubang, who on the one hand provoked border provocations, and on the other hand, they led the troubles to the west, making the Donghu royal family the target of the first wave of attacks by the Fu Han army.

I have to say that their idea has indeed come true, but Ning Chu doesn't mind being used as a knife, because there is no essential difference between killing the king of Donghu first, and then killing the powerful factions of the Meng and Shan tribes in these places.

"Boom—"

When the cannon sound of the Fu Han army sounded from the direction of Tiebi Pass, Nuo Yaji's heart sank, and he understood that the Fu Han army had already attacked, so he walked out of the mansion directly, looking at the dense smoke in the distance, and his own camp that was already a little chaotic, and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

The war that broke out in front of him can be called even worse for the current Donghu Dynasty, if it can't end the war quickly, I am afraid that it will directly destroy the current Donghu Dynasty.

"General, there are many of them, with a lot of muskets in their hands, and a lot of cannons, and they are already coming towards us........ We can't stop them......."

A bloodied Burmese officer trotted over, he looked at Noyaji and urged: "General, give the order quickly, otherwise it will be too late for the army to hold it ......."

Noyaji nodded, and then began to give orders, only to see a Burmese army herald got the order, and then strode out of the mansion, they will take Noyaji's order, try to re-twist the Burmese soldiers who have gradually collapsed into a tight rope.

It's just that after everyone left, Nuo Yaji's face flickered, but he directly led people out of Xinjie and headed in the direction of Lao Guantun.

The direction of Xinjie is very important, but the camp located in Laoguantun is even more important, all the grain and grass of the Burmese army are hoarded in Laoguantun, once it is captured by the Fu Han army, it will be a more terrifying thing than the loss of Xinjie.

........

Today's Fu Han army is on an expedition, and the real most fatal thing is never how the enemy is, but the key logistics issues, which will really determine what position the Fu Han army can fight.

At present, Ning Chu has a total of 53,000 regular troops in the southwest, and in order to provide sufficient food and ammunition supplies for these troops, more than 60,000 horses, donkeys and cattle alone have been requisitioned, and the people are as many as 100,000 people, and this is also the result of Ning Chu's hard work in Yunnan for a year, which consumes countless painstaking efforts.

In other words, if the Fu Han army can't defeat Burma with 50,000 people, then there is no way to mobilize more troops, because the logistics supply will not be able to keep up, unless Ning Chu can develop the local economic level of Yunnan to a certain scale, and then try to provide stronger logistics support capabilities.

Deng Sanjin carried a musket on his shoulder, pulled a mule behind him, and stepped on the dirt in the direction of Xinjie, he was not the first wave of Fuhan officers and soldiers to attack Xinjie, he was only responsible for sending ammunition to the forward position, but for him, this was not a very happy thing.

After all, after becoming a soldier, especially after becoming a soldier of the Fu Han Army, what I want in my heart is to make meritorious contributions and earn some military merits for myself and my family, so that I will not live up to my own blood and fire.

And Deng Sanjin is not in danger on the surface now, but he is destined to lose the credit, and these past fantasies have naturally come to naught. However, he couldn't change anything, after all, his performance in the recruit camp was not good enough, and Shangguan assigned him to the logistics unit.

"Three golds, take a look!"

Just as Deng Sanjin was looking down and thinking about his future, he heard a call from afar, and he couldn't help but look up, only to see a young second lieutenant of the Fu Han Army riding a horse proudly, and behind the horse, there were dozens of Burmese soldiers in tattered clothes, who were walking forward with their hands tied, and several soldiers of the Fu Han Army were also following.

The young lieutenant rode up to Deng Sanjin, but he smiled, "What's wrong, have you started transporting ammunition?" Do it well, after all, this job can't kill people, hahahaha......"

Deng Sanjin's face changed, but he said without yin or yang: "Hmph, you donkey day, you have made a great contribution this time, right?" ”

"That is, don't you know, these Burmese troops are not even as good as the green battalion, Lao Tzu led people to charge, and they panicked......."

The young lieutenant sighed for a while, and said: "Don't look at the crackling and fighting on the front line, there are no casualties on our side at all, it seems that an unlucky guy has broken his foot, as for the Burmese army, it has been defeated several times......."

When Deng Sanjin heard the second lieutenant's words, his heart was even more sour, but he silently stopped talking, just quietly pulled the mule, and walked forward with a deep foot and a shallow foot.

The second lieutenant continued to say proudly: "I heard that this time, anyone who has made great contributions will be given fertile land in Burma, and for a merit like mine, there are barely 300 acres, and I don't have to pay a penny of tax for the first three years!" ”

Deng Sanjin was a little puzzled when he heard this, and said: "Although it can be divided into 300 acres of land, what is good about the land here?" Is it good to have a hometown? If it were me, I would still want the land at home! ”

"You know!"

A trace of disdain appeared on the second lieutenant's face, and then he explained: "The cabinet has sent information together with the Privy Council, like Myanmar is not a desolate place, for example, the Irrawaddy River Delta is an unimaginably fertile land, even compared with the paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River, and at least 10,000 acres of land can be opened up here....... As long as we occupy this place, a few hundred acres of land is just a small matter. ”

Deng Sanjin was a little stunned, 10,000 acres of fields? How big is that?

It's just that before Deng Sanjin asked, the second lieutenant took the initiative to say: "I don't know how big 10,000 mu is, but I understand one thing, no matter how large the area, we have to win, as long as we win, this field will naturally have ........."

Deng Sanjin was encouraged by the second lieutenant's words, he clenched his fists and muttered: "Yes, as long as you win, you will have everything....... I don't want to transport ammunition anymore, I'm going to the front, I'm going to war! ”

The second lieutenant smiled, but he didn't say anything, and he couldn't help but show a smile of relief when he saw Deng Sanjin's fighting spirit being gradually ignited.

Just when the two were separated, the Fu Han army on the front line of Xinjie, with muskets and bayonets in their hands, had already launched an attack on the Burmese army in Xinjie, like a wave-like offensive, but the Burmese army in Xinjie annihilated more than 3,000 people, while the other more than 5,000 people went in the direction of Laoguantun, where the Burmese army camp was located.

Under the condition that the war was very smooth, the two divisions of the Fu Han army attacking Xinjie also began to move closer to the direction of Laoguantun, preparing to fight a big battle with the remaining more than 20,000 Burmese troops in Laoguantun, as for the three divisions of the Fu Han Army in Wanding, under the leadership of Cheng Ming, they used the land and water of the Dajinsha River to advance together, and directly took Mucomb and Ava, as for Wanding, they left a regiment of troops as a follow-up lead-up.

Due to the turbulent water of the Jinsha River, coupled with the fact that the Daying River, a tributary of Yunnan, cannot be navigated, and can only be navigated near the twilight, so the Fu Han army went to the Bison Dam in the upper reaches of the twilight to build warships before the war began, and after unremitting preparations, it has more than 30 small warships, but it is enough for the soldiers of the Fu Han army.

Therefore, Cheng Ming ordered Xu Mingyuan to lead a division to set off from the Bison Dam by warship, and then set up a village at the intersection of the two rivers, thus laying a deep nail in the center of the Burmese army, effectively curbing the support of the Burmese army in the direction of Hakan on the west bank to Laoguantun, which was completely isolated and helpless.

When the two divisions of the Fu Han Army and the 20,000 Burmese troops of Lao Guantun began to fight, Mang Gulong, the general of Hakan stationed on the west bank of the Jinsha River, was a little restless at this time, although the Fu Han army did not fight him, but Mang Gulong understood that once the Fu Han army eliminated the Noyaji of Laoguantun, then the next step would be to Hakan, and then he would not be able to protect himself under the siege of the army.

Mang Gulong knew very well in his heart that the current situation was extremely unfavorable for the Burmese army, and the roaring artillery sound from the other side of the river could explain some problems, that is, the firepower advantage of the Fu Han army would greatly exceed that of the Burmese army, which also meant that there was no chance on the frontal battlefield.

"Come on, send a sailor to control the Jinsha River, if you encounter an enemy's sailor, try to destroy the opponent's ship, and then Ben will personally lead the army to support Xinjie, and you must not let Noyaji die like this!"

After thinking about it, Mang Gulong thought of a way that was not a solution, that is, to directly cut off the Jinsha River with water, which might also play some role.

........

The size of the Burmese naval army is not very large, only about 30 warships, and the tonnage is very small, which is the same as the warships built by the Fu Han army in the bison, but after all, it is driving in the Jinsha River, so it is enough.

More than 30 warships were gushing in the river, heading in the direction of the warships of the Fu Han army, and a general of the Burmese navy held a clairvoyant mirror in his hand, looking at the gradually approaching warships of the Fu Han army in the distance, and was somewhat surprised, because no matter from the appearance of the warships on the opposite side, there was a big difference from the warships of today.

In fact, for the Metropolitan Government of Burma, it is naturally impossible for them to build a real naval army, so the warship built on the Bison Dam is not the kind of decent ship, first it completely canceled the artillery, and then moved the rocket to the ship, as the main weapon to defeat the enemy, but usually it will be covered with cloth, so people who do not know naturally do not understand the strength of this ship.

"Kill!"

As the Burmese ships got closer, the Burmese soldiers above became more and more emotional, brandishing their long knives, ready to approach and fire a salvo that would smash the strange ships on the opposite side to pieces.......

At this moment, from the fleet of the Fu Han army, there was a glimmer of light, and the light began to become more and more shining, only to see that after the light, small black dots fell from the sky and fell on this water.

"Boom—"

The violent explosion sounded, but I saw that the Burmese warship began to tremble in the explosion, and then black spots continued to fall on the ship, directly tearing up and sinking the ship, and the Burmese soldiers fell into the water and struggled, and then were swallowed by the current caused by the sunken ship........

Under the rocket attack of the Fu Han army, the Burmese warships had no chance to fire a salvo at all, and only the remaining warships opened fire, but the solid shells fell hundreds of meters away from the Fu Han ships, stirring up bursts of splashes.

The warships of the Fu Han army seemed to be very familiar with this scene, and they were not half curious about the results they had caused, but took advantage of the chaos of the Burmese warships to take a decisive attack, and one after another the warships poured into the vicinity of the Burmese warships like arrows off the string, and they shouted in unison in Burmese to demand the surrender of the remaining Burmese warships.

However, after several warships expressed their opposition with practical actions, the warships of the Fuhan Army decisively launched rockets, and at such a close distance, almost only a few rockets were used to send the Burmese warships to the bottom of the sea, and the remaining ships did not dare to do anything else, and directly waved the white flag, expressing the intention of surrender.

The naval battle on the Jinsha River did not last too long as usual, because in the past naval battles, the artillery shells fired by both sides were not high in accuracy and power, so they often lasted too long to entangle, but today's Fu Han army is not ordinary, and the appearance of rockets directly ended all possibilities of water warfare.

Mang Gulong, who had been watching the battle from the shore, opened his mouth widely, he still hadn't figured out what weapons were on the ships of the Fu Han army, but he felt a chill in his heart, if the Fu Han army was as strong as this, then even if there were more of his army, it would be self-defeating.

It's just that it is impossible for Manggulung to terminate the plan at the moment, because with the continuous addition of the armies of both sides, the scale of the battle around Laoguantun has become larger and larger, and it has become a decisive battle place between the Fu Han army and the Burmese army.
