readx;?“ Prime Minister, you came up with the idea of sending troops, can you tell me what we should do now? The emperor unceremoniously challenged the prime minister. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The prime minister had a bitter face, but he couldn't slap himself in the face, so he had to continue according to his previous proposition: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the purpose of this letter of state is not for an ultimatum. ”

"Oh?" King Talong looked at the prime minister, and there was anger burning in his eyes.

"Threat!" The prime minister said: "No matter how powerful the Ming Dynasty is, it is a matter of the past, and now that Zhu Changyuan has just founded the country, it is already the limit to be able to launch a war of aggression against Annan, and it is impossible to threaten us at the same time." ”

"Moreover, Annan seems to be weak, it is easy to defeat but difficult to conquer, it is a big joke that the 100,000 army of the Ming Dynasty wants to enter the territory of Annan, according to Weichen, there is no 600,000 or even a million troops, it cannot be conquered. And the Ming Dynasty can't take out so many troops now! ”

"Take 10,000 steps back, even if he has a million-strong army, it is impossible for his troops to attack Annan and our Donghu at the same time in two ways. Your Majesty can imagine that if Zhu Changyuan had the ability, he would have come from the north to meet us as early as last year, instead of shrinking down to do some land innovation in Bamo! ”

When the prime minister said this, he was almost moved by himself.

When King Ta Long heard this, he pondered slightly, and had to say that what the prime minister said was quite reasonable.

"Also, although we are a small country, we can have thousands of thousands of people, millions of people, hundreds of thousands of troops. He can attack and defend, why should he be slaughtered? ”

The Prime Minister's words deeply touched King Long.

Yes, you Zhu Changyuan will come if you have the ability, in my country's territory, Lao Tzu has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, you come to fight me and defend me, why do you brag that you can destroy our country within ten months?

"If you can attack and defend, you can do it according to the prime minister's wishes, reply to Zhu Changyuan, you have the ability to do it with real knives and guns, don't hide in the city and be the eighth king. Just talk about it, don't practice! ”

The reason why King Ta Long has such a big confidence is because he himself does not believe that Zhu Changyuan will divide his forces to fight against his hundreds of thousands of troops when he attacks Annan.

Therefore, King Ta Long was very trustworthy, and sure enough, within ten days, he sent someone to reply to Zhu Changyuan with the opinions they had researched.

Zhu Changyuan took it out and just read one sentence. found that he was insulting himself, so he didn't look at the rest of the content, directly crumpled the paper ball and threw it away, and said to the guards around him: "Go, follow me to the mountains." ”

Bring a few dozen guards. Take a boat ride up the river outside the city of Ba Mo and head deep into the mountains not far to the north.

The river outside the city of Ba Mo is called Lishui, and the river outside Myitkyina is actually the same, but one is upstream and the other is in the middle.

Lishui is the ancient Chinese name for the large river system of Myanmar, and in modern society, the name of this river is the Irrawaddy River.

Although the Irrawaddy River is not as long as the Yellow River and is not as famous as the Yellow River, it is located in the subtropical tropics. Rainfall is abundant, so the flow of this river is also very large, the water flow is about ten times more than the Yellow River, equivalent to half of the flow of the entire Yangtze River.

The river terraces of Yeosu are open from Myitkyina down to the mouth of the sea, and the valley terraces are home to towns and populations throughout Myanmar and are the birthplace of human civilization.

The section of the river from Myitkyina to Ba Mo is turbulent due to the cutting of the mountain, but the river channel is correspondingly narrow. The entire section of the river flows for about 100 kilometers in the gorge.

Before leaving Myanmar last time, Zhu Changyuan had imagined that he would do a big job in Myanmar, so he set up a foreshadowing when he left. This is also the greatest reliance he dared to say that he would destroy Burma within a month (see chapters 33 and 34 of Book IV).

In the distance, I saw a waterfall suddenly rise on the surface of the river, stopping in the middle of the river.

Yes, it's a waterfall, and underneath the waterfall are two large ships that have been converted from the system, and the ships are full of construction machinery.

Originally. For more than half a year, the machinery on the ship has been building the barrage dam day and night, and the more and more it is built, the higher and higher, and finally the barrage dam not only cuts off the entire Lishui waist, but also makes a huge reservoir within a hundred kilometers of the rear, and also blocks the originally navigable channel, so that the two large ships now have to dock downstream, useless.

The barrage dam built by Zhu Changyuan is very simple, that is, simply start from the bottom of the river and pile stones up, slowly raise the water level of the upstream section, and then continue to pile stones up, and finally the river floods the stone dam and overflows from the top of the dam, forming a rather spectacular waterfall.

When the boat sailed to a place not far from the waterfall, Zhu Changyuan gave up the boat and went ashore, climbed halfway up the mountain from the foot of the mountain, and then went backwards, and finally saw the huge lake like a long dragon that he had stored.

When the official in charge of guarding the dam saw Zhu Changyuan coming, he hurriedly ran over to salute and said, "Your Majesty!" "Zhu Changyuan was still the king of Yanming before he left, and he had become the emperor after not seeing him for a few months, and the soldiers under him were also happy.

"Okay, get up!" Zhu Changyuan pointed to the long lake behind him and said, "I see that the river behind here is several times wider than before, and the amount of water stored in it is probably very considerable, right?" ”

The petty official said: "Back to Your Majesty, there is a lot of water, although our dam is three zhang higher than the water level downstream, but the entire lake is two hundred miles long, if the dam is blown up now, the whole of Myanmar will become a water country from now on." ”

"Good, good! The explosives are ready, right? Zhu Changyuan asked again.

"It has been prepared for a long time, and my subordinates also chose to test the explosion in the water some time ago, and they will definitely be able to destroy this dam in one fell swoop!" The soldiers in charge of guarding the dam were very confident.

"Hahahaha!" Zhu Changyuan laughed loudly and said, "It's ridiculous that he is the king of Long, and he is still waiting for my army to fight to the death with him in southern Myanmar, how can I be so stupid?" After today, he will think about how I will destroy Burma in ten days! ”

Zhu Changyuan looked back suddenly, looked at the guards behind him, and said: "Spread my will, order all the soldiers in Ba Mo City to transport grain and grass materials to the high places in the back mountain, and the troops and people will also withdraw to the high places. ”

"Yes!"

In fact, the top leaders of Bamo knew that Zhu Changyuan would release water to flood Myanmar sooner or later, so they had stored all their strategic materials in a high place a long time ago, and now that Zhu Changyuan had issued an order to retreat, they only needed to move a small amount of materials and personnel to a high place.

Zhu Changyuan took advantage of the time when the soldiers retreated, while arranging for the soldiers to start arranging explosives on the dam, and on the other hand, secretly receiving the two big ships and the mechanical equipment on the ship into the system.

A day later, news came from Ba Mo that the soldiers had retreated, that Ba Mo City had become an empty city, and that all the underwater explosives on the dam had been planted.

It was getting late, and the setting sun shone its last rays of light, dyeing the western sky crimson, and the pale clouds were dyed like blood!

The night slowly shrouded, Zhu Changyuan stood on the top of the mountain for a long time, let the breeze cross his ears, shook his head slightly, and muttered secretly: "Forget it, there are no immortals in war, although killing too many people will hurt the heavens and peace, but I will try my best to make up for it in the future!" ”

"Let's get started!" Order.

"Boom!" There was a dark sound, and a strong explosion sounded under the water, and suddenly, the debris splashed, and a water curtain more than ten meters high rose on the river surface.

"Knock, knock!"

The explosion continued, and the table-sized boulder was lifted out of the water into the sky, and then, in the continuous explosion, a huge gap was blown open in the middle of the dam, and the rolling torrent mixed with the debris crashed down.

"Boom!"

With the roar of the continuous flow of water hitting the stones, Zhu Changyuan took advantage of the last glimmer of light in the sky to see that the originally clear river water had turned into a turbid mudflow in the process of flowing downstream.

"Go, cleanse this sinful world!"

Zhu Changyuan took a deep breath and slowly descended from the top of the mountain.

The flood carried a tremendous amount of pressure, and flowed frantically through the mouth torn apart by the explosives, and although the explosives only opened a deep gap, ten minutes later, the gap was doubled by the action of the flood itself.

The flow of the Irrawaddy River is more than 10 times that of the Yellow River, and the destructive effects of the floods can be imagined.

Wherever the flood went, the village was razed to the ground in an instant.

Even those tall trees, the jungles in the tropical rainforest, after such a great flood, were cut off and submerged like grass cut by a sickle.

The flood started from north to south, and at the beginning, the devastation was enormous, and all the towns it encountered were instantly reduced to rubble, and many people were drowned or torn apart by stones in the water before they could react.

A lot of people died.

But after all, Myanmar is a tropical rainforest, with lush vegetation on the surface, which is not comparable to China.

Therefore, after 300 kilometers, although there are floods, the destructive power is much less, at least when the water comes, it is not as ferocious as in the middle reaches.

Although the houses are gone, the property is gone, and the homes are gone, most of them can still save their lives as long as they react a little smarter.

Therefore, there are not many deaths in the downstream areas, but the losses are very large.

King Thalong crawled out of the palace wet, found a high altar and climbed up, covering his face and crying.

The ministers who climbed up behind him were persuading and tossing their clothes.

"Your Majesty, don't be overly sad!" The courtiers persuaded one after another.

King Talong stopped crying, watched his palace become a water country, and said, "How should this be? Why is there a lot of water for no reason? Now that the Ming Dynasty is going to wage war against me, if Zhu Changyuan's army enters the country, how can he resist the enemy? ”

"The Donghu Empire, it's over..."

He let out a long sigh and wept again. (To be continued.) )
