Outside the Ava royal capital, it has been three days since the arrival of the Hongtang army, except for the artillery bombardment launched from time to time in the morning and evening, it seems that the Han people of the Hongtang army are not as interested in the siege as they showed before.

The only thing that did not stop was that they launched a fierce and continuous blow to the Burmese army of Zhulu who came to King Qin, as long as they found that there were signs of the Burmese army of King Qin within twenty miles of the royal capital, the Hongtang people seemed to smell the meat shark, and they rushed forward as if they were flying.

Without the assistance of strong fortifications, the army of the king of all walks of life, which was no more than 5,000 in size, was no match for the Hongtang army armed with muskets and grenades on its waist, and the Burmese army was completely defeated in terms of the quality of its soldiers and its weapons and equipment.

The only Burmese elephant soldiers who can pose a threat to the Hongtang army have lost two or three thousand in the early battle, and the number of elephant soldiers that can be cultivated by the army of King Qin is even more scarce, after all, in this era when even the people can't support themselves, the price of cultivating an elephant soldier is too high, even with the power of the Burmese Dynasty, it can't train many elephant soldiers.

Without the addition of the army of the king outside the city, there were only more than 20,000 Burmese soldiers in the royal capital of Burma, but they did not dare to attack in front of the Hongtang army with great military achievements, and all they could do was to hide behind the thick and strong walls of the royal city and live in worry.

There is no need for the Hongtang army to deliberately look for it, those gentry who have different ideas in the royal city of Burma have already taken the initiative to come to the door, knocking on the next thoughts of the Hongtang army.

In the face of the crisis of the life of the family and the survival of the family, all kinds of ugly faces were naked in front of Tang Ren's eyes: there were those who were bold and reckless, who swore to show their loyalty to the Hongtang army, and all kinds of slanders and even began to arrange the words and suggestions for the future life of the royal family of the current dynasty, which made Tang Ren and them dumbfounded; There are still those who are wholeheartedly loyal to the Burmese royal family, and what they ask for when they come is more out of the interests of the Burmese royal family, and some are even willing to hand over the wealth of their families in exchange for the security of the royal family and the kingdom.

And more often than not, ordinary people choose to be more in line with their own and family interests, come to inquire about the news, and want to do something for the kingdom and the royal family without hurting their own interests as much as possible.

But among them, there is basically no one who really cares about the future of the people at the bottom of the upper kingdom of Burma, who occupy the vast majority of the people, those who were captured by the Hongtang army, but in the eyes of these dignitaries and nobles, it is not worth mentioning at all, and no one cares.

Sending away wave after wave of bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods who secretly came to inquire and contribute loyalty, the Tang people became more and more aware that the hundred-year-old royal capital in front of them, which seemed to be surrounded by high walls and easy to defend and difficult to attack, had gradually opened its door to the Hongtang army.

"This Burmese is too, there is no surname, except for the first name, the family inheritance is too rude."

What makes Zhao Simei a little uncomfortable is that these days of time and flowers are generally in contact with people, and they know all kinds of powerful figures in Myanmar, just the various names and pronunciations of these characters make them feel big.

"It seems that it won't be long before the Burmese Dynasty will send a real secret envoy to contact us, so you might as well go out now to get some benefits."

Although they vetoed Zhao Simei's proposal to storm the royal capital of Burma, after all, they are soldiers who have been running between life and death all the year round, and everyone's concept of right and wrong has been somewhat distorted, and they are all thin and swarthy Burmese natives in their eyes, and it is difficult to have a sense of intimacy as a Han Chinese, so Tang Ren put forward a proposal that made everyone quite happy at this time.

"However, when you want to loot and rob the surrounding families, you should try to let go of those who have shown their loyalty to us and think that we are in control, as well as their families."

Releasing the various negative emotions accumulated by the soldiers who have been fighting is conducive to their return to normal, but for the Hongtang generals who are in other countries at this time, they have a little less scruples, even if they know that their brother's proposal is likely to be exchanged for the unlucky and even the price of death of thousands of Burmese people, Tang Ren and they don't seem to have the slightest hesitation.

In addition to taking advantage of the negative psychology of the Aifang soldiers, at the same time, Tang Ren also used this to continue to exert pressure on the Burmese dynasty, and only when the gentry class, as the backbone of the gentry, really felt the threat from the Hongtang army, they had more excuses and greater motivation to promote and accelerate the pace of the Burmese royal family's submission to the Hongmen.

Of course, the attack on the Burmese royal city of Ava has not stopped, and with the detailed defense map of the royal capital provided by the Burmese traitors, the Hongtang army no longer has to fire at the Burmese royal capital without any aim as before.

By measuring the actual city and the strongholds marked on the city layout map, the Hongtang artillerymen were able to make their shells as useful and effective as possible, even if they could not truly observe the environment in the city.

With these maps, the people in the urban settlements breathed a sigh of relief, and the number of shells hitting their heads gradually decreased; However, the aristocratic districts where the dignitaries lived, as well as the royal palace area where the Burmese royal family was located, began to suffer because of this.

Countless cannonballs were fired as if they had eyes, and most of them landed directly in the vicinity of the houses of these prominent gentry and nobles, as well as in the Burmese royal palace, which covered a large area.

As a result, the nobles and gentry, as well as the descendants of the royal family, who lived there, would immediately put down whatever they were doing, no matter what they were doing, as soon as they heard the sound of artillery fire from outside the city, and fled to the cellar where the wealth had been hidden, waiting in horror for the shaking of the ground to subside.

In this way, after besieging the Burmese royal family for a month with less than 8,000 troops, the Burmese Dynasty lord Ta Long finally could not suppress the fierce admonition and persuasion from the nobles and gentry, and sent a secret envoy to the Hongtang army and began to ask for peace.

At this time, the belated representatives of Hongmen Qixintang and Nanyang Chamber of Commerce just caught up with this good opportunity to show their talents, and after obtaining Tang Ren's approval, they replaced Tang Ren and their soldiers, and started a mental contest on the table.
