"Sir! It's raining too much! Do you think you should take a break before leaving? The soldiers are so tired! I can't walk anymore! "Following the first team officer Song Kan, the second team officer Sha Laxin also ran to Kuan Apaiwang to complain.

"Niang Xipi." Apaiwang scolded. Follow who to learn whom, the original instructor was a Zhejiang, this Apaiwang also learned a mouthful of Zhejiang-flavored Chinese, and there are many mantras that only Zhejiang people have.

"You didn't hear what I had to say? Keep going, keep going. Kuan Apaiwang's face turned gloomy, and he was furious, "Shalaxin, if you don't want to do it, the team officer?" If it really doesn't look like it's done, say it as soon as possible. I'll report it to the top right away. ”

"I don't need a single person in my team who doesn't listen to my superiors."

"Sir. It's not that I'm complaining. What do you see with these soldiers? They work very hard. Salasin ignored Kuan Apaiwang's words. Those are all angry words. "This heavy rain is extremely good for us! There is also a rainforest on the road of the Burmese people, and their environment is worse than ours. They will be delayed for a long time during the passage through the rainforest. We still have time to rest. ”

Rainforests are slippery and difficult to navigate under heavy rains, far more difficult than in mountainous areas. Kuan Apaiwang's face can indeed be used for a period of rest.

As long as they don't turn rest into rest.

The rain rang out in all directions. Shalasin's words were of no use at all, and Kuan Apaiwang looked at Shalasin, turned around and left without saying a word. Salasin grabbed the military hat from his head and returned to his team, "Everyone work hard." Let's go......" Salasin forcibly pulled himself together and shouted fiercely.

The rain gradually stopped. After a half-day forced march, the Kuan Apaiwang division had reached Bolai. The place was already connected to the Mooko Hills outside the ancient city, and the mountain roads were rugged and precipitous, and the steep cliffs seemed to be about to collapse.

The Burmese had a rainforest on their way, and the Siamese army's march was not easy, and the mountainous hills were far more difficult to walk than they had traveled.

"Sir! Ahead is the Mammoth Hills! After that, it's Antique Town! "On the other side of the town is another hill, and there is a river running northeast and southwest, so the Guse is a road that the Burmese must take, unless they know that the Siamese army has found a step, otherwise the Burmese armed with guns will not bypass a hill and go southwest.

Song Kan, who led the way in front, approached and said. "There are two or three hundred families of civilians living there. The Lausso River is quite wide, but the depth of the water is very shallow, and even if it rains today, if you are careful, you will be fine. Song Kan said with certainty. If they need to set up a position in the north of Grusen.

"The order goes down. The troops were ordered to step up their advance, and the first team was put on higher alert, and the deputy battalion officer, staff officer, and officers of the second, third, and fourth teams were all summoned. Kuan Apaiwang ordered the soldiers beside him.

"Song Kan, your team should also pay attention to reconnaissance. Look at the antique terrain and are there some good places to fight the blockade? "Look up at the steep rocks on the left. Kuan Apawang continued.

"Yes. I'll keep an eye out. Song Kan said affirmatively. According to the Burmese before, although there are no big hills there, there are several suitable hills on the north and south banks of the Guselauso River, which are enough to block the passage. ”

There are indeed a few nice hills on both sides of the Guselauso River. The mountain is also steep. It was more than enough to house the 500 or so people of the Xiakuan Apawang Division. It's still easy to block the passage down the hill.

Then the march was even harder.

Half an afternoon had passed, and they had spent the night in a cold and wet night, and then at ten o'clock the next morning, Apaiwang finally saw the outline of the town of Prime.

"Sir! A part of the Burmese army was spotted, and they rushed to the north bank of the Lausso River. At this time, Songkan ran to Kuan Apaiwang covered in mud and reported.

It's really quite thrilling, and the two sides don't seem to be far behind. The team that was in charge of guarding at the front saw the shadow of the Burmese army, and it can be said that the first team was taken aback by the Burmese army that suddenly appeared on the opposite side. Fortunately, the battalion officer insisted on not resting yesterday. Otherwise, it's going to be a big problem.

"How many?" Kuan Apaiwang had just settled his troops. was running food, and when he heard that the Burmese army had reached the other side of the river, the whole person jumped up from the ground. "Less than five hundred, it should be their vanguard." Praise the way.

"Less than five hundred?" Kuan Apaiwang couldn't help but laugh, this number was not a threat to their battalion, "Pass my orders." The troops accelerated and must intercept the Burmese before they entered the town of Guse. ”

He doesn't even need to occupy all the hills, as long as he gets stuck in the roads of the ancient town, the victory is theirs. When the large army arrives from the north, the hateful Burmese army in front of you will be crushed to powder like a bedbug.

"Than Shwe,...... Do you still want your head? Deng Min's face was pale, and his lungs were about to explode. Than Shwe was the first to notice a small number of Siamese in front of him, but instead of attacking immediately, he reported to himself first, and when he ordered him to attack immediately, the team was beaten by the Siamese muskets. If it weren't for the current focus on stabilizing the morale of the army, he really wanted to kill Dan Rui. Although he knew that Dan Shwe's men were really tired, maybe when this army launched an attack, they were tired and they just acted like they were helpless. But the overall environment of their team has really become extremely dangerous, there are pursuers in the back, and there are interceptions in front. Unable to break through the previous interception, they could only flow westward into the hills, otherwise they could only be completely annihilated.

However, Deng Min knew very well in his heart that the thousands of people under his command could not be moved. Although he was worried about the pursuers behind, he still rested for the night. There was no moth at night, because the Burmese on the opposite side secretly passed the news to them that the antique Siamese soldiers had only one battalion.

So Deng Min decided to take a good rest, and at dawn the next day, they cleaned up the opposite side in one go, and then escaped.

However, the attack on the second day had already been three times, and the pursuers behind were getting closer and closer, but they were never able to take down the Siamese blockers in front.

Three attacks, the morning has almost passed, and the two small hills on the opposite side have not been captured so far, which really makes Deng Min a little crazy!

Most Burmese people are good at mountain climbing, but it is still very difficult to attack from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain every time!

The Siamese army was no longer armed with soft bows and arrows, swords and guns, but sharp muskets.

In the first three attacks, dozens of soldiers had to fall each time, and a large number of wounded soldiers who cried for their fathers and mothers had to be pulled back. Seeing the corpses piled up on the hillside, Deng Min was so angry that he wanted to cut Dan Rui with a knife! - Let him lead his men to attack, and he has not touched the top of the mountain even after losing half of it!

How can this waste not be killed?!

"Big ...... My lord, the Siamese are really ...... It's so tenacious! And the firearms are sharp, and the soldiers can't hit them! The frightened Dan Shwe trembled and begged for mercy.

“…… Greedy for life and afraid of death. It's still Miao Duji who owes you! How can you come out of such a waste? Someone's coming! Drag him out and cut him down! Deng Min yelled in a hoarse voice. If his eyes could kill, Dan Rui would have been broken into thousands of pieces by him. This waste, standard waste.

But how could Deng Min really kill Dan Rui? As he said, Than Shwe was born from the Mudu Kee, the local governor who directly managed the affairs of Ahmudan and Atai, and a large hereditary class spread throughout the villages. The rights of the latter are significant. The reason why several dynasties in Myanmar collapsed very quickly is because there are great unstable factors in the political environment of Myanmar, and those Miu Du Ji obediently obeyed orders when the Central Dynasty was strong, but when the Central Dynasty lost the war or its power declined, it would take advantage of the situation. It's like the Yongji tooth of the Gongbang Dynasty right now.

After the decline of the Taungoo Dynasty, the Mon people [one of the main ethnic groups in ancient Burma, the other two major ethnic groups were the Burmese and the Shan (Chinese Dai)] occupied the capital of the Taungoo Dynasty, Ava, and persuaded the Yong Jiya (Miao Duji), who had real power in the area, to surrender. Yongzhiya refused to surrender, and took Gongbang as a base to defeat the attack of the Mon army in one fell swoop.

So now, although the Burmese Gongbang Dynasty has twisted into a rope under the strong pressure of the outside world, and the power of the entire Myanmar seems to have been temporarily twisted into a rope, the countless small strands of rope that have been twisted into a rope still exist, and no one dares to provoke this sensitive nerve easily.

Now that the Chinese have the support of the Shan people, they have all hit the Nandu River, and Awadu is panicked, and Myanmar is still provincial and worry-free. Than Shwe can die on the battlefield, but being killed by Tengmin, who is a distant relative of the Gongbang royal family, can cause shock.

"My lord! My lord! Spare your life...... My lord. Give me another chance! Spare your life! My lord. The villain must open the way. Dan Shwe was dragged outside by Deng Min's own soldiers, and he was so frightened that he begged hoarsely.

"Slow down......" After his anger was vented by Deng Min, his mind calmed down a little. Bring him back! ”

"My lord! My lord! Give the villain another chance! The villain will definitely charge ahead! If you don't open the passage, you vow not to see your lord. "Walking around before the ghost gate closes, it's a heart-pounding feeling. Than Shwe feels that even if he lives a little longer, it will be good for him now!

"My lord, for the sake of many years of friendship, I beg the adult to give the villain another chance!" Dan Shwe cried snot and kept kowtowing to Deng Min like kowtow worms, and Deng Min was disgusting to watch.

"Than Shwe! For the sake of you and I who have known each other for many years and have served in the army for many years, I will give you another chance! You now lead your troops to attack me again! If you can't take it down......" Deng Min glared at Dan Rui with red eyes. "You know what will happen......"

"Don't worry, sir! The villain understands! Thank you, little man! Dan Shwe finally saved his life and immediately collapsed on the ground.

"Don't get ready for me yet!" Deng Min roared angrily at Dan Rui, who was annoyed by the latter's greedy face and feared death.

And while the Burmese troops were playing a good show, Kuan Apaiwang's brows on the top of the mountain were also furrowed heavily.

It's almost noon, why hasn't the big army arrived yet?

The Burmese have backward weapons, but in order to survive their tenacity, Kan Apaiwang has also deeply understood them! At the beginning, Siam was pushed to the ground by the Burmese and rubbed against each other, even after Zheng Xin raised the army, the Siamese army drove out the Burmese after many years of hard fighting, but when the counterattack was counted, they did not win well in the hands of the Burmese. Even in this bilateral war, with the support of China behind the Siamese army, the weapons have been upgraded, and there is no need to worry about logistics and supplies, and the Salween River has become an iron wall for the Burmese to intercept the Siamese army.

There is no comparison between an invading army that has been 'fed and drunk' and an army that defends the country. The Burmese have a lot more people than other troops, and when it comes to desperate efforts, his battalion is still under pressure. Relying on the muskets in their hands and three or five grenades per person, they may not be able to easily resist the Burmese army.

The fourth offensive of the Burmese army began. They were only about 200 people, scattered in a large area, which caused a certain loss to the condescending shooting on the hill. In addition, Kuan Apaiwang also found that in the mountains, the intricate terrain invisibly neutralized the power of his muskets, and the lethality could only be compensated for by grenades.

The morning battle caused more than 100 casualties of the Burmese army, but a large number of their own grenades were also consumed, and the main force in the north was delayed, so the Burmese were not allowed to fight two more times, and they had to start hand-to-hand fighting. Deng Min didn't know that the Siamese army was actually worried.

It's just that Apaiwang didn't have the intention of escaping or retreating in his mind, and he learned from his instructors the two points of strict observance of military orders and bravery. Apaiwang didn't know how many people in the entire Siamese army had the same heart as himself, but now was the time for him to fulfill his military creed.

No matter what the final result will be, you must give your all.

"Sir, the Burmese Army is coming up again." The second team officer, Sha Laxin, roared hoarsely with a fiery throat, after a morning of fighting, both the battalion officers leading the troops and the ordinary soldiers were quite tired. Especially the officers who commanded the operation, there was fire in their throats and eyes!

The 1,200 Burmese Army, led by Than Shwe, swooped down on the hill again. Behind them was a force of six or seven hundred led by General Deng Min.

Kuan Apaiwang's expression was very calm, "Greet the opposite hill, and be on guard." Everyone is ready to fight, put people into a little and then fight. ”

"Yes!" The platoon officers of each team responded loudly.

"Prepare the soldiers!"

"Attention! Reserve soldiers, each with a grenade in front of himself! Hold your guns steady! ”

"Call me ......"
