Whether it was An Long or An Shirong, the commander of Shuixi Tu at that time, when facing the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court's officials and soldiers, they were certainly not opponents of the official army's muskets and artillery.

However, when they came to Myanmar, when they were confronted with the local indigenous Shan and a small number of Burmese in the Mubang area, who were more backward and poorer than the Shuixi Yi people, these Shuixi Yi people from the Shuixi region who were eager to find a place to live again broke out again.

After more than a month of siege, in December of the second year of Chongzhen, the Mubang walled city where the Tusihan family of Mubang lived was broken by more than 30,000 and nearly 40,000 Shuixi Yi led by An Long and An Shirong.

Although the Mubang Tusi Walled City built on the mountain is tall and steep, the walled city built by its civil engineering cannot withstand the bombardment of several general cannons carried by An Long.

The Han family, which was originally sandwiched between the Ming Dynasty and the Donghu Dynasty, and the Han family, a Mubang Tusi family that curryed favor with each other on both sides, was almost wiped out.

Its current head of the family, King Hanlie of Mubang Tusi, was personally killed in Mubang City by An Shirong, who led his army into the walled city.

The Mubang Han clan, this two-faced Tusi family, except for the Han clan who guarded the ancient town of Xibo in the middle reaches of the Ava River, abandoned the city and fled along the Ava River to the city of Ava downstream, all of them were beheaded in the city of Mubang.

In the autumn and winter of the third year of Chongzhen, in another dry season in northern Myanmar, An Long and An Shirong's uncle and nephew brought themselves out of the Shuixi region and moved to northern Myanmar along the upper banks of the Ava River (that is, the area on both sides of the upper reaches of the Nandu River in northern Myanmar in later generations), and organized them into five thousand households in Mubang, Waxon, Mengnao, Xibo and Nandu.

According to the military order of the Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Office, each thousand households ranged from 1,200 to 1,500 Yi households, and each household drew one ding as a soldier, establishing and maintaining a standing army of more than 6,000 people, thus controlling all the territories that originally belonged to the Tusihan family in Mubang in the hands of the Yi people in Shuixi.

The original Mubang Tusi of the Han clan disappeared with it, and the tens of thousands of Shuixi Yi people under the command of the Shuixi clan also found the new home they dreamed of here.

And the original Shui'an clan has since become history, and here, it has become the Mubang An clan.

The strength of the 30,000 or 40,000 Shuixi Yi people, in order to obtain the vast plain between the Ruili River and the Salween River, also made Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Hou Yungui in Jingnan, secretly frightened.

This area of Mubang Tusi, which was close to Yunnan but was rebellious, was actually defeated by the subordinates of the official army, the Shuixi Yi people, and was brutally conquered.

The territory of Mu Bang Tusi in this era was equivalent to the northern Shan State in northern Myanmar and Yunnan in later times.

With An Long and An Shirong's uncle and nephew taking the territory of the Mubang Tusi family, by September of the third year of Chongzhen, many areas in northern Myanmar except for the important town of Ava fell into the hands of the Yungui Tusi and the meritorious generals of the official army who were originally divided into this area by Emperor Chongzhen.

Luo Ganxiang and his subordinate Piercing Miao people took over the Mengyang region of northern Myanmar through marriage and intermarriage with the local Shan people;

Sha Dingzhou, the son of Tusi of Yunnan Wanglong, relied on the thousands of men and horses he received from his father and brother, and relied on unscrupulous killings to occupy the Bamo region.

And Pu Fuyuan, the son of Ami Tusipu's reputation who originally had a deep hatred with Shadingzhou in history, also relied on those Tusi troops who returned from the victory of the expedition to the west of the water to occupy the Manmo region near the Eight Mo Changguan to which Shadingzhou belonged, and since then he has been in charge and has become the commander of Manmo Wei second only to his father.

At the same time, another figure from the Shuixi clan, An Chongsheng, the former prefect of Wusa Prefecture, also led more than 20,000 Shuixi Yi people under his command to take the Manghong area that was assigned to his subordinates by the imperial court.

By this time, the Taungoo Dynasty, which was located in the southern Burma region of Bogu, had lost control of the northern region, which had weak control.

Especially when the Mubang Tusi family, which was willing to be the eagle dog lackey of the Donghu Dynasty, was eradicated by An Long An Shirong's uncle and nephew, the important town of Ava in northern Myanmar of the Donghu Dynasty has been presented in front of these Tusi generals from the Yunnan-Guizhou region of the Ming Dynasty.

If it weren't for the news that the Portuguese and the Ming Dynasty had reached a treaty at that time, which finally reached the Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Palace, and the will of the imperial court reached the hands of Zhu Xieyuan, the Marquis of Jingnan, then it would be difficult to say that Ava City was still not the territory of the Donghu Dynasty in the winter of the third year of Chongzhen.

This is also one of the fundamental reasons why Ta Long, the king of Donghu, finally agreed to the terms of the Ming Dynasty and the Portuguese, and agreed to exchange the city of Ava for the Ming Dynasty to officially canonize him as the king of Burma.

If the court officials and troops of the Ming Dynasty came to Burma, the king of Donghu would not be too worried.

Because there is a precedent in history, the official officers and troops of the Ming Dynasty are not uncommon in remote and wild areas like Burma, and they cannot adapt to the climate here, so they will withdraw sooner or later.

But these toasts from the southwest region of the Ming Dynasty were very different.

Not only are these people perfectly adapted to the climate, but they have long coveted the land.

The predecessor of the Donghu Dynasty was the Dongwu (Donghu) Xuanwei Division of the Ming Dynasty, and his ancestors were born in the local Tusi, and he was well aware of the ambitions and means of these Tusi.

If the Ming Dynasty had allowed the Tusi lords in its Yunnan-Guizhou region to go south, and the Portuguese did not give them more support, then in a few or more years, I am afraid that it would not only be the area north of Ava City that would have been encroached upon and occupied by these wolf-like northern Tusi lords.

At that time, many fertile plains south of Ava City, Central Burma and even Lower Burma will probably become the battlefields that these northern Tusi will come to fight for one after another.

What's more, those northern areas with high mountains and dense forests and sparse populations were originally the land of the Ming Dynasty.

As long as you keep the foundation left by your ancestors in China and Burma and Burma, and from then on settle down and try your courage, work hard, and learn lessons in ten years, who can tell you what the future will be?

The reason why the Donghu Dynasty was able to destroy Ava Wangchao and occupy those mountainous areas in the southwest border of the Ming Dynasty was because there were years of war in the north of the Ming Dynasty, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty had no time to take care of it, and the main army could not be sent here.

Who's to say that such an opportunity will not come again?

In this way, Talong, the king of Donghu, finally chose temporary submission and patience.

On the last day of September in the third year of Chongzhen's reign, Talon's envoys, accompanied by the Portuguese missionary Scalp Menta and the trade representative of the Viceroy of Salen, Pietersen-Cohen, traveled north to the treacherous city of Ava.

After a short stay, these people continued north to contact the new Mubang Tusi, that is, the hereditary commander of Mubangwei, An Long, and under the escort of An Long's nephew, the commander of Mu Bangwei who guarded the ancient town of Xibo, and Tongzhi An Shirong, they went all the way north and continued to the Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Mansion.

In early October, a delegation of Burmese tributary envoys sent by Dongyu Talon arrived in Kunming and was received by Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Jingnan Hou Yungui of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, approved the tripartite treaty brought by the envoys of the king of Donghu, and after stamping the seal of his own Yunnan-Guizhou governor's palace, he also sent his son Zhu Zhaoxian, who was used by the army, to personally accompany the Portuguese and Burmese to continue the pilgrimage to the Ming Dynasty to exchange the treaty.

And Zhu Xieyuan also took the opportunity to let his son Zhu Zhaoxian go north to Beijing with a copy of the song and present it to Emperor Chongzhen.

A place like Ava City, no matter which Yungui Tusi family is from, is not suitable.

Because this place is not only a strategic place for the future government and army to continue to move south, but more importantly, this place is located at the confluence of the upper reaches of the Ava River and the Irrawaddy River, surrounded by a large area of fertile river valley plains.

Any Tusi family from the Yunnan-Guizhou region will inevitably grow stronger if they get this place, and over time, I am afraid that they will become a border trouble of the Ming Dynasty again.

At the beginning, after receiving the will and note sent by the Jingshi court and the Portuguese Perez, the Marquis of Jingnan, Zhu Xieyuan, ordered the Tusi army to go south in the name of the Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Palace, and temporarily stopped after obtaining the fief of the imperial court, of course, it was not so simple.

On the one hand, there are some considerations that Zhu Xieyuan does not want to force the king of Donghu to jump over the wall in a hurry and the fish die and the net is broken.

Compared with the Ming Dynasty, the Taungoo Dynasty in southern Myanmar is of course nothing, but after all, this Taungoo Dynasty also has a lot of population and army.

Wouldn't it be better if the Portuguese could continue to pressure the King of Toungoo to accept this treaty and take the city of Ava peacefully?

On the other hand, of course, and more importantly, Zhu Xieyuan considered that among these Tusi armies that went south, no matter which one finally won Ava City, it was not the result that he, the governor of Yungui, was happy to see.

In this way, at the end of December of the third year of Chongzhen, after several months of arduous trekking, the people from the Governor's Mansion of Sareem in Portugal and the Taungoo Dynasty in Burma finally arrived in the cold city of Beijing.
