Volume 1 The Battle of Luchuan Chapter 133 The Noon Offensive (23)

Si Jifa lost control of the situation, but the Hubble family still controlled a certain situation and troops.

These people may not be the opponents of the main force of the Ming army, but they have a great advantage in breaking through Mengyang City. After all, most of the Luchuan lands under the low jurisdiction of Mengyangzhao Fadi Hubble of the Ava Dynasty were relatively less affected by war.

Some places may exist as battlefields for the Ming army and the Luchuan army, but because the defenders in these places are basically controlled by Meng Yangzhao Fadi Hub, and Dhaba, as a nominal vassal of the Ava Dynasty, is also another identity of the Ava Dynasty, a subordinate of the Ming Dynasty.

In these places, especially the places controlled by the Ming Dynasty, and the current Ming Dynasty in the early and middle of the fifteenth century AD, there is no such seemingly clever but unreasonable statement as "my vassals are not my vassals", and they do not exist in the Ming sphere of influence at this time.

In this kind of place, there is no force that can ignore or underestimate the Ming Dynasty, and no one dares to challenge the authority of the Ming Dynasty, after all, the army of the Ming Dynasty is real at this time, and it can quickly organize other small countries and small forces to gather a strong military strength that cannot be compared with the national military strength.

This is the real hard power, before the Tumubao Change, the Ming Dynasty has maintained the suppression of the surrounding forces, and this strong suppression also ensures the authority of the Ming Dynasty, which is also the key to the Ming Dynasty's ability to fight abroad.

In fact, these are some very easy to understand truths, even if they can't be understood immediately, they can be understood through some true historical accounts: in this land of China, those powerful countries and powerful forces, such as the Han and Tang dynasties, and then the Ming Dynasty, all have strong external strength and influence.

Even some Qin dynasties, which may not be so strong in overall strength, have completed the development of the southwest because of their relative strength. And in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, why were the Three Kingdoms obviously only three divided and divided, and the actual sphere of influence was not as strong as the unified dynasty, but it was still remembered by history and praised by future generations? How can it be worthy of the statements of various famous generals and celebrities?

In fact, this can also be seen from the external strength of the three countries, although the three countries cannot distinguish the winner from each other for a while, but they can see that these famous generals are not in vain, but they can see that these famous generals are not in vain, but really have enough ability for the external forces in their respective directions, such as Cao Wei's suppression of the nomadic herds in the north and northeast, Sun Wu's development of the southeast, and Shu Han's control of the southwest.

And the situation to the Ming Yingzong orthodox years, can be reflected is the Ming Dynasty's power to the surrounding forces, although this power has been affected by the Ming Xuanzong's conservative strategy, but in general, it is still within a controllable range, after all, the Tumubao Change, which really dealt a major blow to the Ming Dynasty, has not yet happened, and may have affected the Ming Dynasty's authority in the southwest to a certain extent, and the Luchuan Campaign, which may have affected the Ming Dynasty's authority in the southwest, has not completely ended.

Although the fall of Mengyangcheng and the withdrawal of the Ming Dynasty may have occurred on the former world line, because of Jiang Yugang's arrival, it affected the strategy of the Luchuan army in Mengyangcheng in a butterfly effect, greatly delaying the offensive of the Luchuan army, and may have bought a few more months.

This is also a change in history, those soldiers who withdrew from the Luchuan battlefield and returned may have participated in the war of Tumubao, but because the battle of Luchuan has not yet ended, this process has also been slowed down, so as to change the fate of these people.

As for how it will change the changes in the civil fort? Jiang Yugang didn't know, but in general, on the one hand, he saw the occurrence of the so-called butterfly effect, because of some small decisions, changes in individual places caused by the change of the big trajectory, on the other hand, he also saw the powerful corrective force of the historical trajectory, because some of the choices made by the whimsical thought, although the time may be a little late, but still according to the trajectory that was set to the end of the past.

The final battle under the city of Mengyang finally broke out near the Great Lake Indoki, just like hundreds of years ago on the other world line, the pace of the Ming army stopped here, gave up the conquest of Luchuan and led the army back to the division, after which the Ming no longer had the ability to control the situation in the Burmese Xuanwei Division, and the fate of the Ava dynasty began to become irrelevant to the Ming Dynasty.

If you want to find something that has a great impact on the future fate of the Ming Dynasty, the existence of the Ava Dynasty is indispensable, and the reason why you say this is not because the Ava Dynasty is very strong and poses a great threat to the Ming Dynasty, on the contrary, the Ava Dynasty is a relatively weak dynasty.

On the bright side, the Ava Dynasty may have one of the most vast and fertile territories in Indochina, but in fact it has a very limited degree of control over its own territory, and the vassals everywhere, the local officials Tusi, or Zhaofa, actually have strong independent powers, and some powerful local officials do not take the Ava Dynasty in their eyes at all, and the weaker local officials also always want to combine with other forces to compete for the rights of the Ava Dynasty.

To deal with such a peripheral force, the best way for the Ming Dynasty is to maintain its vassal status and maintain its existence, and then achieve control over Ava by constantly encroaching, even if it does not have the ability to completely control Ava, it is necessary to maintain the situation so that the surrounding situation does not get out of control.

But after the battle of Luchuan, the Ming army withdrew, giving up the conquest of Luchuan, so that even Luchuan is no longer under the control of the Ming Dynasty, for the Ava Dynasty farther away from the Ming than Luchuan, although the Burmese Xuanwei Division still maintains the identity of the Ming courtiers on the surface, but in fact the two have little management relationship.

This is undoubtedly a loss of benefits for the Ming Dynasty, and it is not a good thing for the Ava Dynasty, that is, the controller of the Burmese Xuanwei Division itself, without the direct protection of the Ming Dynasty, it is difficult for him to control the uneasy forces around him, and he can not even continue to maintain the rule of Ava.

And this is the inevitable negative impact of the decline of the influence of the Ming Dynasty in the area from Luchuan to Ava after the Battle of Luchuan.

The Ava Dynasty was finally destroyed by the rise of the former subordinate Tusi Donghu, and this Donghu Dynasty was the one who brought real trouble to the Ming Dynasty.

Compared with the weak power and weak management, the Tusi in the territory is full of princes of the Ava Kingdom, the Donghu Dynasty has a stronger strength, has a stronger ability to control and manage this rich land, they effectively use the rich resources here, and gradually become the most powerful country in the Indochina Peninsula.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty had entered the middle and late stages, and Donghu naturally did not take the Ming Dynasty in his eyes and began a large-scale expansion. Although even in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the strength is not comparable to that of a low and powerful person in a land like Donghu, in the Ming-Burma War that broke out with Donghu, the Ming Dynasty still effectively prevented the expansion of Donghu and regained control of part of its past sphere of influence.

But at this time, Donghu, the defeat of a Ming-Burma war did not make him really defeated, or maintained relative independence, maintaining his strong influence on the Indochina Peninsula and Burma, at this time, he said that he was a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, it is better to say that the two have been close to equality in status, and the prestige of the Ming Dynasty has since been in a state of Schrödinger's cat, and there is no suzerain.

Although the Ming Dynasty achieved enough goals in the Ming Burma War, because of the decline or even loss of its own ruling prestige and legal rationality in Burma, it was no longer able to maintain the existence of its own vassal states in Burma, and finally in the late Ming Dynasty, in the large number of war burdens, it was unable to allocate enough troops to maintain the stability of these places, and completely lost control of Burma.

The real sadness of things is still to the final ending.

Later people, the most mainstream and common view is that the Ming Dynasty ended with the suicide of Chongzhen Coal Mountain, and from then on, it was the era name of the Qing Dynasty that replaced the rule of the Ming Dynasty. However, the Ming Dynasty, as a dynasty, still maintained the continuation of the inheritance after the suicide of Chongzhen Coal Mountain, this continuation is an objective fact, it still has the title of emperor, still has the strength of the army, and still has the transmission of blood.

And in the strict sense, the real demise of the Ming Dynasty is still the last emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty in the strict sense, in fact, the death of the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Yongli Emperor Zhu Youlang.

And Zhu Youlang's death was due to the curse of the water that occurred in the capital of the Donghu Dynasty, Ava City, which was once the capital of the Ava Dynasty, and despite the demise of the Ava Dynasty, the Donghu Dynasty that conquered it still chose to abandon its ancestral land of Donggu, so as to take the town with the meaning of "jewel" in this name as its capital.

And the reincarnation and change between history happen dramatically like a curse, Ava City, just like the Ava Dynasty, the once powerful Ming Burmese Xuanwei Division, after being destroyed by Donghu, the unwilling undead, found a hundred years later the downtrodden Ming to take revenge, that is a kind of resentful fate curse?

curse the weakness of this once mighty kingdom for its inability to protect its courtiers; cursed the conservatism of this kingdom, chose to retreat in the face of war, and gave up his sphere of influence; Curse this kingdom to suffer the same fate as himself, to be completely destroyed by his enemies.

In the end, the Ming Dynasty, like Ava, was terminated by the Donghu Dynasty to be precise, and the difficulty of cursing the water completely destroyed the last hope of the exiled Ming court, and the Yongli Emperor Zhu Youlang was transferred to Wu Sangui, and finally died at the hands of Wu Sangui.

And the Mu Wangfu, which has guarded Yunnan for hundreds of years, has always blocked the expansion of power in Myanmar and the loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and the history of their guarding of one side also ended directly in Ava City. The fall of the Ava Dynasty was not the disappearance of a local power from history without a trace, it profoundly affected the future fate of the vast land in Myanmar, and even the fate of the Ming Dynasty.

The disappearance of the Ava Dynasty is the rise of Donghu, which is one of the nightmares of the Ming Dynasty, and to go back to before everything happened, this is a serious mistake in the strategy of the Ming Dynasty, failing to win the results that should be won, as the price to be paid, unleashing the devil.

And in the same way, before the appearance of the "devil", before the Ming Dynasty made a big mistake, the Burmese Propaganda Department was still its subordinate, although it was not obedient, but at least the threat was limited.

Ava princes like Mengyang Tusi Di Habo of the Ava Dynasty naturally did not dare to directly confront the Ming Dynasty, he was also a subordinate of Ava no matter what, and he could not cause trouble without permission, so when the Ming Dynasty entered Luchuan, he only needed to deal with the Luchuan forces that belonged to Sijifa.

It is also for this reason that the real casualties are also Sijifa's troops, and it is Sijifa's walled city that was damaged in the war, another person who holds power in the Mengyang area, and his power has not been affected too much by the war.
