With the 200,000 Ming garrisons entering Burma one after another to receive the captured Burmese cities, and the garrison also undertook the attack on some small Burmese towns, nearly a month has passed, and the northern part of Burma has been completely occupied by the Ming army.

As for Taunggyi, the Burmese army here was defeated and annihilated by the Siamese army, and after the Ming army defeated the Siamese army, the southeast of Myanmar in Taunggyi was also occupied by the Ming army.

At this moment, the whole of Burma, only Yangon and other southern and coastal areas are still in the hands of the Burmese king, and the Burmese king has already fled to the city of Yangon when the Ming army went to Taunggyi to annihilate the Siamese army, and is always thinking about how to resist the next attack of the Ming army.

On September 2, Zhou Cao, the commander of the Ming army, led 77,000 Ming troops to march out of Donghu and march south to Yangon.

Donghu is about 400 miles away from Yangon, and in just one day, the Ming army's iron cavalry marched south for more than 200 miles, all the way to capture the Burmese cities such as Oduun, Biaoguan, and Lianglibin, and approached Bagu, the largest Burmese city in front of Yangon.

Bago is already close to the coast, this area is also the largest grain producing area in Myanmar, the terrain is relatively flat, especially suitable for the Ming army to gallop on iron horses.

"Boom" the Ming army's iron horses galloped on the road, bringing up billowing dust and smoke.

At this moment, the autumn rice has not yet been harvested, and it is galloping on the rather flat coastal plain of southern Myanmar, and the fertile fields of Myanmar are everywhere.

At a glance, a large amount of rice is beginning to turn slightly yellow.

Sooner or later, Burma will be captured by the Ming Dynasty, and the grain on it will naturally be the materials of the Ming Dynasty, so from the beginning of entering the plain, Zhou Cao ordered the Ming cavalry not to rush into the rice fields on horseback.

The cavalry of the Ming army resolutely carried out Zhou Cao's order, there was no need, and they only galloped on the official road.

"Newspaper"

"Marshal, twenty miles ahead is Bagu!" A scout cavalry came to Zhou Cao's side to report.

Zhou Cao nodded.

Ma Yue, who was dressed in white leather armor, said with a smile on the side: "After capturing Bago, our army can come to Yangon, and see where the king of Burma can flee to?" ”

Yangon is the last important town in Burma, and the capture of Yangon means almost the capture of the entire territory of Myanmar.

The Burmese king once abandoned Taungoo and fled to Rangoon with 30,000 Burmese soldiers, Rangoon can be said to be the last place of residence of the Burmese king.

"Tell the army to speed up, take Bago before dark, and tomorrow the army will come to Rangoon!" Zhou Cao ordered.

Immediately, the 77,000 Ming army iron cavalry accelerated and galloped, gradually disappearing on this plain road.

What Zhou Cao didn't know was that after he led the Ming army to ride away, the Burmese people living on this official road immediately came out to look at their own rice fields on both sides of the road, and the rice fields in the corners of their eyes were undamaged, and they were all happy. Originally, seeing so many Ming cavalry appear, they were so frightened that they hurriedly dodged, thinking that their rice fields would be ruined by the Ming army's iron cavalry, but they didn't expect that the Ming army would seem to have committed no crime in autumn.

This may be the difference between the Shangbang Dynasty and ordinary small countries. It is quite strange that some Burmese people would think of it like this.

Bago, as the Ming army approached, the Burmese army guards who were guarding Bago also received the news.

"What to do, what to do! The Ming army is coming! "The Burmese garrison general walked back and forth in the general's palace, worried, and his heart was full of fear.

To explain that the army defeated their Burmese elite army of hundreds of thousands in less than half a month, and also captured their capital city of Taunghu, and even more, the Ming army also diverted to Taunggyi, and annihilated more than 200,000 Siamese elite troops in Taunggyi, which can be explained that the army has continuously annihilated their Burma and their Burmese sworn enemy Siamese army in less than a month, and the strength of the Ming army is self-evident.

The defeat of Mandalay shocked the whole of Burma, and the loss of the capital city of Donghu made all Burmese people full of fear. And even when the more than 200,000 troops looted by Siam were completely annihilated by the Ming army, the Burmese people were not only shocked, but extremely frightened.

The image of the Ming army's invincibility has been ingrained in their hearts.

There is no doubt that the general does not want to die, and he is not optimistic about the Burmese king, who is left to survive in the Rangoon area.

In every country, there are loyal generals, and naturally there are also selfish generals who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and the stubborn generals are one of them.

"If you can't do it, surrender to the Ming army! After surrendering left and right, the Ming army will not kill General Ben! Even if General Ben can continue to maintain his glory and wealth, it is not certain! After a moment of sorrow, the Burmese general made a decision with a very firm gaze.

Soon, the Burmese garrison of Bago gathered the other Burmese generals in the city.

The Ming army will soon be under the city, and the general will not have any nonsense, and he said that he would open the city gate and surrender to the Ming army.

"General, you are a traitor, and you will be executed by His Majesty!" One of the Burmese generals blurted out in surprise as soon as he heard the words of General Buglock.

I have to say that the king of Burma has ruled Myanmar for so many years, and his prestige among the Burmese generals is still very high.

"Huh? Don't you want to object? The general said: "If we don't surrender to the Ming army, what can we do to resist the Ming army, the Ming army has even captured Mandalay and Donghu, is it possible that our Bago is stronger than Mandalay and Donghu?" When the Ming army enters the city, you and my family will also suffer with us, besides, this general is not for himself, but for the sake of the Burmese people and all the families in the city, at least surrender to the Ming army, and the Ming army will definitely not slaughter me! ”

After the general finished speaking, he did not withdraw his gaze from the general, still looking at the man.

Surrender is already something that will inevitably be done, he will not tolerate anyone's opposition, anyone who opposes is looking for death, and he will not show mercy.

The Burmese general was palpitating when he saw it, and he also felt that what General Ba Gushou said was not completely unreasonable, and he only said those words impulsively just now, and he regretted it a little after speaking.

"What the general said is that I am not waiting for myself, I am waiting for the people of the whole city, and I ask the general to make a decision, and I will definitely follow the general!" Another Burmese general who was present came out to express his position.

The king of Burma has gone, and in less than half a month, he lost hundreds of thousands of elite troops and the capital Donghu and fled to Yangon.

Now that the Ming army has destroyed the Siamese army in Taunggyi, they have been killed to Yangon, and they are about to come to Bago, they do not think that they Burma still has the possibility of defeating the Ming army, since the king can not hold the capital Donghu, it must not be able to hold Yangon.

The king himself is unable to protect himself, even if they choose to surrender to the Ming army at this moment, the king cannot blame them, in short, the Ming army is too strong, they don't know how to resist.

These generals, who were inclined to surrender, made excuses for themselves in their hearts.

"Yes, General, please make a decision, General, I will definitely follow!" Most of the generals present stood up and spoke.

Seeing that most of the generals have expressed their positions, even if there are a few generals who are loyal to the Burmese royal family and are more inclined to resist, at this time they also know that things cannot be reversed, and it is no longer their turn to surrender or resist.

At this point, the remaining Burmese generals no longer insisted on disregarding their lives, and immediately stood up to express their position.

When all the generals present had expressed their positions, General Bagu smiled.

The surrender of the Ming army has become the consensus of the Bago generals, and the Bago generals did not wait, and immediately ordered the soldiers not to resist, open the city gate, and he himself took the Bago generals to the city gate to wait for the arrival of the Ming army.

When the Ming army was three miles away from Bagu, the scouts of the Ming army who checked Bagu reported the news of Bagu's surrender without a fight to Zhou Cao.

"Bago surrendered without a fight?" Zhou Cao smiled.

"It's not surprising that the main Burmese army has been wiped out in Mandalay, and we have annihilated the Siamese army in Taunggyi before, and it is not surprising that some Burmese cities have surrendered, and Bago is not the first Burmese city to surrender without a fight." The red lady said on the side.

Zhou Cao nodded, Bago was indeed not the first Burmese city they encountered without a fight, in fact, they went south from Donghu, and there were already two Burmese cities that had surrendered without a fight along the way.

"Bago surrenders without a fight, and then captures two insignificant small cities, and the army will be able to march to the city of Yangon!" Ma Yue'e also said on the side.

The distance of three miles, at the speed of the cavalry, was almost instantaneous.

After a while, Zhou Cao led the Ming army to appear outside Bago City.

"Greetings to the Heavenly Soldiers! I'm waiting to meet General Shangbang! "The Bago garrison will bring a group of Bago Burmese defender generals to meet Zhou Cao and other Ming troops in front of the city gate.

Seeing the attitude of the Burmese Bagu garrison and others, Zhou Cao nodded with satisfaction.

"Into town!" With Zhou Cao's order, the Ming army's iron cavalry stepped into Bagu.

With the surrender of Bago without a fight and occupied by the Ming army, the Ming army was approaching Yangon, and the final battle to destroy Burma was coming.
