No one in the hall squeaked, they were all worried about Lashio being surrounded by Chinese troops, there were British aggressive advances outside, political instability and peasant uprisings inside, and now it is good, the strong neighbors in the north have also come to join in the fun, this is really a house leak and even rain!

"A hundred years ago, the Qianlong Emperor conquered Burma four times, at that time, my Burma was united, the soldiers were strong, and taught him to return without success, and a hundred years later, my Burma fell into a crisis, the national strength was not as good as before, the Chinese seized the opportunity, and came again, if this matter is not properly handled, I am afraid that it will be more serious than the British disaster, can the secretaries have a wonderful way to retreat from the enemy?" King Mindong's tired eyes swept over the people in the banquet one by one, and asked with a sigh.

"Humph!" King Ganang snorted coldly: "China's aggressive nature, since the Yuan Dynasty, we have carried out a total of ten wars of aggression against Burma, although they have failed again and again, but the heart of destroying my Burma will not die, and now the new dynasty has not unified the whole country, so I can't wait to bring the army to come, and before I start to attack the city, I will kill innocents indiscriminately, rob our wealth and women, it can be seen that I am determined to kill Burma, I dare to ask the king to go to Lashio to supervise the battle, and boost the morale of the soldiers!" ”

King Mindong's gaze was a little evasive, obviously he didn't dare to go, and then he sighed again: "In the past, China's previous invasions of Myanmar were planted in the mountains and forests of northern Myanmar, but this time it was different, the Chinese side first appeased the Miao people in its territory, and then used the Miao people to appease the Karen, Jingpi, Dai and many other ethnic groups who lived in the mountains of northern Myanmar for generations and the Han people scattered on the Sino-Burmese border after the defeat of the Ming Dynasty. A direct road was opened from Kunming to Lashio, so that its troops and supplies could be transported in a steady stream.

The Chinese Democratic Alliance Army has risen rapidly, repeatedly defeated foreigners and the Qing court, and its strength is extraordinary, while the national strength of our country has declined greatly. And the barrier is lost, but I am afraid that it will be useless for this king to go to the front line! ”

In fact, the pacification of the various ethnic groups on the Sino-Burmese border by the Democratic Alliance is very simple, and there is no problem of appeasement among the remnants of the Han nationality, who themselves have a deep hatred for the Manchus, and after the arrival of the Democratic Alliance army, it is natural to surrender.

And for minorities. There are only two points, the first is to promise to allow migration to the plains to settle down after conquering Burma, you know, the natural conditions in the mountainous areas of northern Myanmar are quite difficult, the mountains are connected with the mountains, and the few valleys are the settlements on which all ethnic groups depend, and the output is extremely limited under the scientific and technological conditions at that time.

The mountains and forests of northern Myanmar were still Chinese territory before Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. However, due to the War of Resistance against Japan and Aid Korea, there was no time to take care of the south, and Burma seized the opportunity to forcibly occupy it, so compared with the Burmese and Mon people in the plains, the ethnic groups in northern Myanmar were actually defeated and could only live in the deep mountains and old forests.

In ancient China, it actually attached great importance to border stability, and for the ethnic minorities in the border areas, it has always been the first priority. After suppressing the Fu, he was given relief in the event of a natural disaster. That is, to practice the government of benevolence and virtue, and the Burmese are aggressive, burning, killing and looting, doing all kinds of evil, not to mention relief, it is not bad if you don't come to rob you. Comparing Myanmar with China highlights China's goodness even more, and now that the Chinese government is back, with the support of the Chinese government, how can the ethnic groups in northern Myanmar give up this opportunity?

The second is to treat the ethnic groups of northern Myanmar as Chinese. Joining Chinese nationality, including taxation, education and future suffrage, is no different from the average Chinese, after all, in that era, the modern sense of the nation has just taken shape, the ethnic groups in northern Myanmar due to the isolation, there is no concept of nationality, the so-called this ethnic group, that ethnic group, is just a mark to distinguish between each other, now give them a chance to integrate into a stronger and richer population, without discrimination, obviously scrambling to join.

Prince Mingong took it and said: "My father is right, my country has no advantage, and there is really no great chance of winning a war with China, in fact, according to the ministers, China's previous invasions of Burma are not aimed at subjugating Burma.

Now China is in the time of changing the dynasty, and our country is a vassal to the Qing Dynasty, not a vassal to the new dynasty, and the beginning of the new dynasty is also the time when it needs to establish authority, so China is using the pretext of defiling our country to provide weapons to the Hunan army, and the purpose of sending troops to come is about to come out, he wants to use our prestige and force our country to surrender.

Father, you should send an envoy to the Chinese military camp, say that the clan is invited, lower your posture, and offer more gold and silver beauties, you may not be able to retreat to the Chinese army, after all, the Chinese have a good face. ”

"That's right!" Prince Liangyuan immediately patted his thigh and shouted: "We are a vassal to China, we are China's protectorate, China has the obligation to drive out the British for us, if it is done properly, maybe we can use China's strength to retake Lower Burma!" ”

"Yes!" Prince Song Zheng echoed: "Let the two of them eat dogs, the weapons provided to the Hunan army are obviously British, and neither the Chinese nor the British are good things!" ”

"Hahahaha~~" King Ganang suddenly laughed loudly: "When the national disaster is at hand, you are still daydreaming, let me tell you, China is here to destroy Burma, why provide weapons?" That's just an excuse. ”

King Mindong frowned and asked, "Why did King Jiasang say this?" ”

"Humph!" King Gasang snorted coldly: "Vietnam knows, in the history of China, there have been several invasions of Vietnam, put it in the past, it is indeed Vietnam to China vassal, China will immediately withdraw its troops, but the last time is different, China colluded with France to force the Nguyen Dynasty to cede more than 100,000 square kilometers of land in north-central Vietnam."

Why is this changing? Because the Chinese emperor Wang Feng has strong expansionist ambitions, and who will guarantee that Vietnam's history will not repeat itself in China's Burma? Calling the vassal a real thing to China is the way to a quick demise! ”

Prince Mikye stroked his beard and said: "What King Gasang said is that since the Chinese army entered Burma, it has been burning, killing and looting all day long, looking at his appearance, it is not just to force us to return, let alone the so-called justice, the king must be careful, don't lead the wolf into the house!" ”

"This" King Mindong showed a look of embarrassment, and what both sides said made sense, especially the menacing Chinese army, which frightened him, and he did not dare to fight against more than 10,000 Anglo-Indian mixed troops, let alone 200,000 Chinese troops armed to the teeth.

From the heart, King Mindong is inclined to peace talks, even if it is not impossible to cede some land, this is actually under the invasion of the great powers, the instinct of the feudal dynasties of Asian countries, they only want to keep their position, continue to live a drunken life.

Western colonizers took advantage of this to coerce and intimidate the royal families of various countries, forcing each other to retreat step by step, betraying national rights and interests, and eventually losing their sovereignty and becoming colonies, from the Qing Dynasty to Vietnam and Burma.

King Mindong pondered for a long time before he said: "This king thinks that it is necessary to send someone to talk to the Chinese side, at least to find out his intentions, of course, the preparation for war cannot be left behind, in case the negotiation is not close, only the jade will be burned, I don't know who wants to go?" ”

No one squeaked, including the most active king in the main battle, everyone wanted to hide behind and enjoy the fruits of victory, and no one wanted to go to the Chinese military camp alone to take risks. (To be continued.) )
