In the 22nd year of Wanli, after Xiao Ruxun led the army to defeat the Donghu Dynasty, out of the necessity of developing himself, he moved his original allies, the Mon people of Burma, to the southern part of the Chittagong District of present-day Bangladesh, and drove them out of Burma.
And in order to ensure that these guys would not return to Burma again and cause harm to their own construction, he built the military city of Pingxi City in the location of the current Mondu, and stationed an army of about 2,000 soldiers for a long time.
After the reorganization of the Zhennan Army in the 24th year of Wanli, the four major battalions of the Zhennan Army Infantry Army took turns to guard this stationing task, and each battalion guarded it for half a year.
In order to ensure the stability of traffic from Bago to Pingxi City, Xiao Ruxun specially requisitioned 30,000 prisoners of war slaves to build a gallop road to ensure the smoothness of this road and the immediacy of information transmission.
There are several military cities like Heping Xicheng in central and northern Myanmar, all of which are expedient measures that Xiao Ruxun thought of in order to control the territory under the premise that immigrants could not live and develop.
But even if it is an expedient measure, Xiao Ruxun knows this deeply, so when choosing a place to settle the Mon people, Xiao Ruxun chose the Chittagong area, because at this moment there is a small unified dynasty in this area, the Arakan Dynasty.
The dynasty was at its peak as the Mughal dynasty farther west, and of course, the small country could easily be taken away even in today's Burmese town.
The one who can break his wrist with Daming is the Mughal Akbar, Akbar's reign has entered the late stage, and he still has seven or eight years to live, but at this moment in the Mughal Dynasty, Xiao Ruxun really doesn't want to provoke.
But not to provoke does not mean that there will be no guard, no defense, Arakan these fools sent Portuguese mercenaries to participate in the war in the process of reckless Yingli's invasion of the Ming Dynasty.
Among the Portuguese mercenaries destroyed by Xiao Ruxun was the Portuguese mercenaries of the Arakan Dynasty, and Xiao Ruxun directly blacklisted this dynasty after learning about it.
So the place of migration of the Mon people was chosen.
With the large-scale migration of the Mon people, the king of Arakan, Ming Yesaji, was considered to have poured blood mold, and the area that the Mon people moved into at that time was still a no-man's land, although it already belonged to Arakan, but only a few aborigines were inhabited, and it was easily killed by the Mon people and the dove occupied the magpie's nest.
Under the military threat of the Ming army, the Mon people continued to open up living space in the north, and finally violated the core interests of the Arakan Dynasty, so the Arakan King began to organize an army to fight the Mon people, trying to expel the Mon people from his land.
However, with the assistance of some muskets and artillery supported by the Ming army and even military commands, several military operations in Arakan were defeated by the Mon people, and they returned with a heavy defeat, and the loss of military strength was not small, and they no longer dared to fight with the Mon people easily, and were helplessly forced to admit the Mon people's occupation of the southern coastal area.
However, Ming Yesaji has not given up ownership of this land, and for three years he has been constantly trying to fight wits and courage with the Mon people, and small-scale friction has continued, but neither side dares to engage in large-scale battles.
Ming Yesaji also gradually knew that there was a big backer behind the Meng people, and it seemed to be a big backer, but he didn't know if it was or not, because Ming Yesaji didn't want to regain his territory through peaceful means.
With just one more big backer, Ming Yesaji had to deal with it carefully and properly, while restricting the Mon people from continuing to move north, he accelerated the speed of arming his firearms troops and recruiting more Portuguese to help in the war.
As a result, some of the solicitations were recruited, but in each battle, these Portuguese died the fastest and the most, and many were shot in the head and died, and gradually the Portuguese did not dare to be employed by Minyesaki, and Mingyesaki completely fell into decline.
The Meng people steadily promote their own living space, but they are more and more dissatisfied with Xiao Ruxun's tough policy, they have to continue to fight to get living space, but their side is developing extremely rapidly, people who used to do business praised Xiao Ruxun's good development of territory, so good and that good, naturally some people are unhappy, pink eye together, can no longer go down.
Slowly, the Mon people and Ming Yesaji reached a consensus in a sense, the Mon people no longer went north, and the Ming Yesaji no longer organized an army to go south, and the Mon people tried to go south and east back to their original residence, but the south was held by Pingxi City, and the high mountains and harsh terrain in the east also invisibly limited their expansion.
As a result, this predicament gradually turned into anger, which made the Meng people more and more dissatisfied, more and more dissatisfied with Xiao Ruxun's Zhennan army, and more and more wanted to return to their original hometown to live a good life.
The harassment against Pingxi City is increasing.
After discovering this indication, Xiao Ruxun began to arrange the war in Luzon, and then used the missionary power as a bait to let Alexander and Matteo Ricci preach here, stir them up from within, let them have their own civil strife, and find an excuse to send troops.
Now, that excuse has been obtained.
Xiao Ruxun doesn't care what the king of Arakan, Ming Yesaji, thinks about this war, anyway, he will directly destroy the Mon people, as for the Arakan Dynasty, he has no interest, because Arakan is the only buffer zone between Burma Town and the Mughal Empire, if he kills Arakan, won't he have to meet the Mughals head-on?
Xiao Ruxun is not ready for a war with the Mughals, he is just a military town, and the Mughals are a big empire, which is a little irrational.
As for how Akbar thinks about it, Xiao Ruxun naturally has no time to pay attention, but thinking that this guy is old, he should pay more attention to the issue of the heir, and large-scale foreign troops should not be his first choice, otherwise, he will not keep the small country of Arakan from eating.
I guess I'm running out of energy.
This gave Xiao Ruxun the confidence to make small movements under Akbar's nose.
Of course, this is not a small gesture.
On March 30, the 26th year of Wanli, the main force of the Zhennan Army paraded in Bago, that is, Nan'an City.
In this battle, Yuan Huang personally took command as Xiao Ruxun's military advisor and director of the government affairs office, and led 50,000 troops from Zhennan to attack the Meng people, which must be defeated, must be defeated, and lay the foundation for future development.
Yuan Huang keenly sensed that something was coming, he needed to prepare everything before that, and when Xiao Ruxun needed him, he could give him everything Xiao Ruxun needed, so as to live up to Xiao Ruxun's trust and arrangement for him.
Yuan Huang wore the armor given to him by Xiao Ruxun when he was in North Korea, and held the sword left by Xiao Ruxun, exercising the supreme command of the Zhennan Army on behalf of Xiao Ruxun.
