These Yungui Tusi armies were not those northern Han people from the far north who were not adapted to the water and soil climate of Myanmar.

These Tusi troops from the Yunnan-Guizhou region, their hometown, where they originally lived and grew up, are connected to the mountains and rivers of northern Myanmar.

Therefore, after these people arrived in northern Myanmar, whether it was the topography or the water and soil climate here, it was very easy to adapt, and there was no problem of unsuitable water and soil and climate.

The land of Myanmar, which was originally looked down upon by the monarchs and civil officials of the Ming Dynasty, was a coveted fertile land for these Shuixi Yi people, the Qingmiao people and the Liangshan Yi people in Yunnan who originally lived in the high mountains and dense forests.

Since these people were sealed to northern Burma, for more than a year, with the support of Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, they have gone south to fight, and one after another they have taken the land that the imperial court has decreed to them in their hands.

Luo Ganxiang, who was named the commander of Meng Yangwei, led more than 2,500 brave and warlike soldiers wearing green seedlings, as well as thousands of wives and children of these young soldiers, occupied Myitkyina, the seat of the original Ming Yunnan Chengxuan political envoy Si Mengyangfu, drove away the local Burmese people, and recruited the local Shan leaders who were already small in the area by means of marriage and intermarriage.

Luo Ganxiang is the confidant of Zhu Xieyuan, the current governor of Jingnan Hou Yungui.

In the process of Zhu Xieyuan's governor leading the officials and troops of several southwestern provinces to quell the rebellion involved in the case, Luo Ganxiang and his soldiers under the command of the green and Miao soldiers were used as Zhu Xieyuan's Chinese army for a long time.

When it came time to reward meritorious deeds after the war, Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, naturally couldn't treat him badly.

Not only did he give him a large piece of relatively safe land in northern Burma, but Zhu Xieyuan also handed over many muskets and artillery pieces in the army after pacifying Shuixi.

Among them, there were a large number of old-fashioned bird guns, three-eyed guns, arquebuses, and old-fashioned big-bellied tiger squat guns and general cannons that were more equipped with the southwest officials and troops at that time, and at the same time there were a small number of Chongzhen front-loading flintlock guns and several Furlong machine guns.

After obtaining these equipment, Luo Ganxiang and his soldiers wearing green seedlings, although the number is small, but the strength is better than before.

And because Myitkyina was close to the Yunnan region of this era, it was easy to get food and ammunition support from the Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Palace.

In addition, in the northern part of Myanmar at this time, after the war of the Taungoo Dynasty to destroy the Ava Dynasty, the population was already sparse, and most of the small population was mainly Shan people.

After Luo Ganxiang led his army to this area, after only a few skirmishes, he drove away the Burmese who rode on the Shan capital, mainly the Burmese tax collectors who obeyed the orders of the king of Ta Loong.

The area north of Ava (Mandalay) bordering Yunnan was originally the territory of the Ava dynasty, the regime of the Shan people.

After the rise of the Donghu Dynasty, it first destroyed the Bogu Kingdom along the coast of the Irrawaddy River and the Salween River in the south, and then went north to destroy the Ava Dynasty in the north.

In the decades that followed, the Taungoo Dynasty, the Burmese regime, encouraged the Burmese to move north to occupy the Shan lands.

But decades later, with the exception of Awa, the central city of northern Burma, which was occupied by Burmese troops, officials, and nobles, much of the land further north did not really fall into Burmese hands.

Because when the Taungoo Dynasty destroyed the Ava Dynasty, it carried out a large-scale genocidal massacre of the Shan people.

The hatred between the two peoples has not been able to resolve until hundreds of years later.

And the Shan people's resistance has also come and gone, and it has never stopped.

This rebellion continued hundreds of years later.

Under such circumstances, the Burmese officials who had been appointed by the Taungoo Dynasty to the area north of Ava dared to live in only a limited number of towns.

When Luo Ganxiang came to this area of northern Myanmar with the will of the Ming Emperor, the official documents of the Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Palace, and the soldiers who had experienced a hundred battles and were equipped with a large number of firearms, he was also welcomed by many Shan people who had been oppressed by the Burmese for many years.

Luo Ganxiang, who had long known about the situation in this place, soon ordered a large number of widows and wivesless among the 1,000 households, 100 households, and chief banner officials of the 5,000 households of Meng Yangwei, after driving out the Burmese people, who were also outsiders.

Among them, those who have wives take the women of the local Shan people as concubines.

Luo Ganxiang, who has been widowed for a long time, set an example by marrying a daughter of the Si family, a former Shan Tusi family, in Myitkyina, with a hundred pairs of leather armor and a thousand sabers as a dowry.

After a few months, Luo Ganxiang, the newly appointed commander of Meng Yangwei of the imperial court, did not fight much, but took the holy decree of the Ming Dynasty and gained a firm foothold in the upper reaches of the Greater Jinsha River (now the upper tributaries of the Irrawaddy River) with Myitkyina as the core.

At the end of September of the third year of Chongzhen, that is, when the king of Donghu finally accepted the tripartite treaty brought by the Portuguese, Luo Ganxiang, the commander of Meng Yangwei in the southwest border of the Ming Dynasty, after more than a year of hard work, had crossed the upper reaches of the Dajinsha River to the west, and in this area with high mountains and dense forests and sparse population, he successively set up Myitkyina Thousand Households, Meng Gong Thousand Households, Mengyang Thousand Households, Menglun Thousand Households, and the Kamai Thousand Households West of Myitkyina.

Through these five thousand households with the Qingmiao people in the west of the water, Meng Yangwei commanded Luo Ganxiang, with the support of the Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Office, to quickly occupy and control the upper reaches of the Dajinsha River and the area west of it, that is, the so-called northern part of Kachin State in later Burma.

Among them, Myitkyina Thousand Households is Myitkyina, the capital of Kachin State in northern Myanmar in later generations;

Menggong Qianhusuo, that is, the Mogang area of Kachin State in northern Myanmar in later generations;

Mengyang Thousand Households, that is, the Moning area of Kachin State in northern Myanmar in later generations;

The Mon Lun Thousand Households Office is the Mau Lu region at the junction of Kachin State in northern Myanmar and Sagaing Province in Myanmar in later generations;

The Kamai Qianhu in the west of Myitkyina was the lower reaches of the Indawgyi Lake in Kachin State in northern Myanmar.

Of course, the northern Burma region three years after Chongzhen, that is, the northern land that originally belonged to the Ava Dynasty, was not only the Mengyang Mansion, but no longer owned by the Donghu Dynasty in the south.

The Bhamo area adjacent to Mengyang Province, that is, the area of Bhamo County in Kachin State, north of the Ruili River in northern Myanmar in later generations, also became the territory of the Bamo Governor of Shadingzhou, Yunnan.

Sha Dingzhou was originally unruly and murderous in history, and he killed countless people in the war to pacify the Shuixi region with the official army, and after he came to the Bamo area with the army and population from his father and brother, he became even more intensified.

Sha Dingzhou adopted a completely different approach from Meng Yangwei's command of Luo Ganxiang.

Not only did they occupy the towns and cities where the population and goods were relatively concentrated, such as Ba Mo City and Rui Ancient Town, and slaughtered all the Burmese people who were guarding the towns, but they also slaughtered and plundered a large number of rural villages in the Ba Mo area, and killed the local Shan people scattered in the countryside.

Those Ba Mo Shan people who were lucky enough not to be killed fled to the west of the Dajinsha River and joined Luo Ganxiang, the commander of Meng Yangwei.

Fortunately, the area of this Bamo area is not large, there are many mountains and dense forests, valleys and rivers, there are few towns like this, and the overall population is not large.

Not only are there not many Burmese, but there are also not many Shan.

Because of this, Sha Dingzhou's actions did not provoke fierce resistance from the local Shan people, but only fled with his family to Mengyang in the north, or to the Mengmi region in the south.

As for An Long, the commander of the Shuixi clan, and his nephew An Shirong, who were divided by the imperial court with 30,000 or 40,000 Shuixi Yi people who were divided into Mubang Mansions, also adopted a basically similar approach to Shadingzhou.

It's just that the measures taken by An's uncle and nephew are more expulsion than massacre.

And An's uncle and nephew also have such conditions, because they have relatively sufficient manpower.

The 30,000 or 40,000 Shuixi Yi people who survived the encirclement and suppression of the official army at the beginning had at least 10,000 young and strong Yi soldiers who could go into battle.

After these people were sent to the Mubang region, they were quickly rearmed by the Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Palace.

A large number of old firearms from the southwestern government and army, as well as knives, guns, bows and crossbows and other weapons deliberately delivered to them by the Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Palace, fell into the hands of these Shuixi Yi people.
