"Rise and fall", this kind of thing Da Ming has always liked to do, but Gao Pragmatic, the "great Confucian of the time", is not interested in this - if it is beneficial, of course it can be done, but if it is not beneficial...... Hehehehe, the weather is good today, have you eaten?

With high pragmatic eloquence, it is of course easy to fool the princess and prince of Nanzhangguo, who are not very good at speaking Chinese, so I won't go into details.

In short, Gao pragmatic attitude is that it seems that he still supports them very much, but for sending troops, then he has to wait first.

What are you waiting for?

Oh, that's a lot, you see that such a big thing must have the permission of the imperial court, right? Even if the imperial court allows it, it is necessary to discuss how to fight this battle, right?

Is it to send troops from Yunnan alone, or let Annan also send troops to help, or let Guangxi also undertake part of the task of sending troops...... This is all to be carefully discussed.

Even if it's agreed, you have to prepare for sending troops, right? Which troops to mobilize, which generals to choose, how much food to collect and reserve in advance, how much military pay to prepare, how many troops to send troops in several ways, what are the goals, and how to deal with unexpected changes in the situation of the war...... And so on and so forth.

In short, there are a lot of things, and it can't be done in a while, either we don't fight, or if we want to fight, we have to ensure that we win, and we can't be like your father, who can still be defeated and die in Cambodia.

Even, our Daming Celestial Empire, the state of etiquette, can't be punished without teaching, and maybe we have to issue an order to the white elephant king Mang Yinglong in Myanmar, maybe this guy was coaxed after being severely reprimanded, then it is not good that you can let your brothers and sisters return to China without fighting, and your sword son may be able to inherit your father's position safely......

Gao Pragmatic's reasons sounded very reasonable, and the Dao family sisters and brothers were stunned when they heard it, and they seemed to be persuaded by Gao Pragmatic, and they felt that this matter really couldn't be rushed.

In fact, Gao Pragmatism just took out a tried and tested official's three successes to play a few Tai Chi. In fact, if he was now the governor of Yunnan and he was sure, he would have been able to decide for himself whether or not to fight Burma.

This is not a joke, and it is not a "provocation", because ...... Don't look at Myanmar is so bullish now, in fact, in the political system of the Ming Dynasty, it is just a propaganda department - the Myanmar propaganda department is it.

The Burmese Military and Civilian Propaganda Mission, which belongs to the local administrative body of the Ming Dynasty, is one of the "three propaganda and six consolations" set up by the Ming Dynasty on the border of Yunnan, and was established when the Ming Dynasty became the ancestor.

In the first year of Yongle, the Burmese leader Na Luo Da sent Lang to find a tribute to the tribute, with the excuse of Mubang Mengyang to block the tribute road, and replied to the excellent edict to open the Myanmar Propaganda Division, with Rota as the consolation envoy. In the fifth year of Xuande, Myanmar Xuanwei was reckless, and since then, the Xuanwei envoy of the Myanmar Xuanwei Division began to take Mang as his surname.

In the early years of King Sejong's reign, the Burmese Propaganda Department served as a consolation envoy by Mang Jisui and was stationed in Awa City. In the fifth year of Jiajing, Mengyang Tusi Silun attacked Burma, broke the city of Ava, captured him to comfort the reckless age, killed and plundered, and then divided its land with Mubang Tusi Hanlie.

The Ming court sent Yan Shitai, the prefect of Yongchang Mansion, to tell him, but he didn't listen, and Ji Sui was killed by Meng Yang Tusi Silun and Meng Mi Tusi Sizhen.

Meng Yang Tusi Si Lun killed Mang Ji Sui, and in the following year set up his son Si Hongfa as the king of Ava City, and divided the territory of the Burmese Xuanwei Division with Sizhen and Hanlie, and the Ava Dynasty existed in name only. Mang Ruiti, the youngest son of Mang Ji, fled to Donghu for refuge.

The historical background of Dongoo is more complicated and will not be repeated here, but it is theoretically also part of the Burmese Xuanwei Division's three Xuanyu and six consolations, and it was not until the reign of Mang Ruiti's adoptive father, the Burmese leader Ming Jiyu, that he declared independence from Ava, laying the foundation for the establishment of an independent Burmese dynasty.

In the tenth year of Jiajing, Mang Ruiti, who was only fifteen years old, succeeded to the throne in Donghu. Since then, the most powerful dynasty in the history of Myanmar was established, known as the Taungoo Dynasty.

In the twenty-ninth year of Jiajing, Mang Ruiti died, and Mang Yinglong, the son and brother-in-law of Mang Ruiti's nursing mother, succeeded him.

In the 34th year of Jiajing, Mang Yinglong led an army to capture Ava and destroy the Ava Dynasty, and then refused the appeasement of the Ming court, and continued to attack the Mubang, Manmo, Mengyang, Mengmi, and Cheli princely states under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty.

Gao Pragmatic felt that Mang Yinglong's actions proved that he no longer regarded Daming as his boss or "Shangguo", and that Myanmar had completely become an independent country and had turned to occupy the territory of Daming.

Historically, until the 34th year of Wanli, the Ming-Burma War gradually stopped because both sides had no spare strength to continue fighting, but at this time, the "six comforts", except for the Cheli Xuanwei Division in the thirteenth year of Wanli to reattach to the Ming Dynasty, the remaining five comforts have been owned by Burma, and the Ming Dynasty basically only kept the "three Xuan".

Of course, this result is very annoying for Gao Pragmatic, in his previous life, as a spectator of history, he can only regret this, but since he came to Daming in this life, he feels that he still needs to take care of this "idle matter".

It's just that the root cause is not to help the south to "rise and fall".

The purpose is different, of course, the means of dealing with it will be different, but then again, what he said to the Dao family sister and brother just now was not completely shirking, and of course the preparation work was really to be done.

It's just that the war with Burma is obviously different from the fight against Annan this time, removing some nominal problems, and there is also the most practical trouble: this war against Annan, nominally speaking, is a private war jointly launched by Gao Shishi, Cen Ling, Huang Zhiting and others, so the Ming court did not send a single soldier or a penny - this is also an important reason why Gao Shishi's handling of Annan can be quickly recognized by the imperial court.

There are a lot of benefits to sitting at home, but what else? Everyone is a decent person, and you can't eat without a little food.

But if you want to wage war against Burma, it is obviously impossible to fight privately, the imperial court will inevitably need to send troops, and from all angles, it must be based on Yunnan - Yunnan at this time is the real "Great Yunnan", and the three propaganda and six comforts are all nominally under the control of Yunnan!

According to the tradition of the Ming Dynasty, as long as this battle is decided to start, the troops will be 80,000 if there are not 100,000, and then a large number of Tusi younger brothers - Sanxuan Liuwei and Yunnan's internal Tusi estimate have to be soldiers, such as Meng Yang, Meng Mi, Mu Bang, these have been pressed and beaten by Myanmar in recent years, and the internal Tusi - is Yunnan's equivalent to Guangxi Cen Huang two such Tusi, it depends on how the rules of Yunnan are determined, in short, no matter how little, you have to send troops to follow, even if it is just the meaning.

In this case, Yunnan is at least the size of an army of more than 100,000 people, although the toast is all "", not to mention that you can't get military salaries, and even the food and salary are posted upside down, but the military salaries of the Han army are indispensable, right? If the battle is won, the reward of the toasts must not be stingy, right?

Then this is very problematic, because it is difficult to say whether the court is willing to spend such a large amount of money.

Now the imperial treasury is indeed a lot more abundant than ten years ago, but correspondingly, a lot of this money has been spent on "continuing to build" and "ordnance upgrades" and other aspects - this is influenced by the theory of high pragmatism, he believes that where money exists, it is all waste, and it is meaningful to spend it.

In this way, although the annual income of the imperial court has increased greatly, the increase in the amount of silver in hand has not increased much, and it has only made up for the arrears accumulated over the years.

In this case, Gao Shishi wanted to find an opportunity to give Burma a "preventive war", and the first thing to do was not to lay out the war layout and tactical planning, but to quickly think about how to persuade the imperial court to be willing to spend the money, as well as ...... Where to get this money.
