Yunnan Mubang Frontline:

Hundreds of thousands of Burmese troops and the Tusi army that were enveloped by Mang Yinglong were stationed here, and the camps were endless from afar, and the flags were fluttering majesticly.

"The Ming Dynasty is going to do something to us! Damn it! Who is this Li Rusong! Dare to be so rampant, this king must break through Mubang, let these damn Ming Dynasty barbarians know that I am a great warrior of the Donghu Dynasty! Viciously throwing the letter on the ground, the Burmese king Mang Yinglong roared viciously.

In the first battle of Osaka Castle, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was killed by a mud bombardment, and his head was hung at the gate of Osaka Castle.

At the same time, the mud bombardment of the main daimyo and elite troops, a total of 56,000 troops, was almost completely wiped out, except for a few remnants of the defeated generals who escaped from the encirclement. Since then, there has been no resistance to the allied forces of the Nanyang natives and the Florentine army, and even the emperor of Kyoto heard the news of the loss of Osaka and hurriedly fled to Kansai overnight.

On the Wufeng fleet's side, a total of 120,000 natives of the South Seas and 83 Florentine allied troops were lost, but now that the victory was decided, no one cared about these casualties.

At this time, Deng Zilong and Liu Ting also led tens of thousands of elite troops of the Sichuan army, as well as the elite troops of Mu Rui, the Duke of Yunnan Qianguo, to rush to Mubang to block Mang Yinglong's 300,000 troops from Mubang.

And at this time, Mang Yinglong received a letter from Li Rusong to him:

"Mang Yinglong, hand over the heads of 100,000 Donghu soldiers, as well as the heads of your father and son, and I can consider not destroying Burma. If not, the king will come with a large army. Wash the entire Donghu Dynasty with blood, and stain every inch of the entire Donghu Dynasty with your blood! ”

Although Mang Yinglong didn't know who Li Rusong was, he understood that at this time, the Ming Dynasty was already preparing to use troops against Donghu, which was definitely a real thing. But the harsh conditions in Li Rusong's letter made it impossible for him to take a step back.

"Order the three armies, bury the pot and make rice, attack Mubang at noon today, and the first person to enter the city will be rewarded with ten thousand gold, and the city lord will be sealed!" After a temper tantrum, Mang Yinglong ordered.

"It's a big problem now. The Ming Dynasty will not be like the attack on Annan back then. Send hundreds of thousands of troops to fight us, right? Hearing this, the generals and toasts present here, although they respectfully saluted and received orders, but they all quietly made small calculations in their hearts, and many people couldn't help but think of what the older generation said. Emperor Yongle attacked Annam:

The early years of Hongwu. The imperial court issued an edict. The king of Annam, Chen Riqui, sent tribute, and was officially crowned the king of Annam by Zhu Yuanzhang, and listed it as a "country not to be conquered". More than ten years later. In the civil strife in Annam, the Chen family was replaced by the Li family, and the founding name of the country was Dayu. The Li clan continued to pay tribute to the Ming and falsely claimed that he was a descendant of the Chen family, and in the first year of Yongle, Zhu Di, the ancestor of Chengzu, crowned Li Cang as the king of Annam. Annan advocates force, and has been fighting with its surroundings for many years, and even openly harassing the Ming Realm and plundering people and animals. In August of the second year of Yongle, Laos sent envoys to escort Chen Tianping, the grandson of the late King of Annam, to the imperial court and sued the Lê clan for usurping the throne and deceiving the Celestial Empire. Zhu Di sent an envoy to inquire and asked Chen Tianping to accompany him to take the throne, but Li Cang set up an ambush at Jiling Pass (i.e., Friendship Pass) to kill Chen Tianping. Zhu Di was furious when he heard the news, and ordered Zhu Neng, the Duke of Chengguo, to be the general and command 75,000 troops to attack Annam. Annan mobilized the whole people to resist the "invasion", the army and the people set up obstacles and traps, according to the danger to defend to the death, soon Zhu Neng died of illness, Xincheng Marquis Zhang Fu succeeded as the general, at that time Zhu Di's army only experienced the test of the Battle of Jingyan, the combat effectiveness was very strong, the army was invincible all the way, five months pacified Annan, the capture of the enemy amounted to more than 2 million, the king Li Cang and his generals were captured. So Zhu Di divided Annan into Chinese counties and counties, and set up three divisions of Jiaozhi Buzheng, with jurisdiction over 17 prefectures and 157 counties in Annan.

The Ming Dynasty is not easy to mess with, he recklessly Yinglong took advantage of the fact that people didn't care about Yunnan, and they just took advantage of it. Now that Da Ming is really fighting, is he still resisting? That's not looking for what death is!

At the same time, within the Ming Dynasty, there was no objection to Li Rusong's dispatch of troops to Yunnan, but for Li Rusong's plan to destroy Burma in the later period, both Wang Guoguang and others and He Xinyin unanimously expressed their opposition:

In May of the fifth year of Yongle, Zhang Fu sent the captured Hu family father and son to Nanjing, and reported that the Chen clan had been slaughtered by the Hu family father and son, and it was still difficult to find the clan, and the local "Confucian students" also went to the "Ten Thousand People Table" to ask for permission to allow Annan to belong to the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Di issued an edict to behead the Hu family's father and son, and the scholar Huguang and others suggested taking the opportunity to set up a county in Annan and incorporate it into the Chinese territory. Zhu Di's "former ministers of Yanwangfu" responded one after another, although Wenchen Xie Jin, Yang Shiqi and the "first strategist" Yao Guangxiao and others tried their best to oppose it, but the complacent Zhu Di still gladly adopted, on June 1, the fifth year of Yongle, Zhu Di descended to the "Ping An Nanzhao", and promoted Zhang Fu to "British Duke". Changed Annan to "Jiaozhi", set up Jiaozhi County, and Huang Fu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, was the political envoy of Jiaozhi and the inspector. It was this seemingly "subduing the four provinces" decision that caused the Ming Dynasty, which had already successfully conquered the south, to fall into the quagmire of the "Vietnam War" that lasted for more than ten years.

In June of the sixth year of Yongle (1408), in order to plan the northern expedition to Mongolia, Zhu Di recruited Zhang Fu of Annan to return to Beijing, leaving only Mu Sheng to guard the local area, but only half a year later, in August of the year, the war in Annan broke out again, the former minister of the Chen dynasty in Annan Jian Ding gathered people to rebel, and the villagers in Shanghong, Datang, Tongdeng and other places in Annan responded and rebelled. After that, Jian Ding proclaimed himself the king of Rinan and made his nephew Chen Jikuo emperor. Zhu Di was furious when he heard the news, first angrily killed the envoys sent by the rebels to Nanjing, and then increased the troops on a large scale, transferred 40,000 elite soldiers from Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan provinces, led by Mu Sheng, Marquis of Xiping, and sent Liu Jun, the secretary of the military department, to Annan with an edict to appease, in an attempt to "suppress and appease", in December of the same year, Mu Sheng led the army and Chen Jianding in the decisive battle of Shengjijiang in Annan (now Fengying County, Vietnam), because of the light enemy rash advance, was surrounded by Jianding with heavy troops, and the whole army was annihilated under the fierce battle, the Ming Dynasty's "Jiaozhi Commander" Lu Yi, sent to Annan to recruit the military department Shangshu Liu Jun, They were all killed in the battle. It has only been a year since Annam was "established as a province," but the situation has rapidly deteriorated.

The reason is that the root of the bane was actually planted as early as when Zhu Di decided to set up "Jiaozhi County", just as Yang Shiqi said when he admonished at the time: "Although the Chen family is incompetent, it is quite popular." Its people cherish it, and its sudden abolition is afraid that the soldiers of Annam will be resentful, and the gangsters will rise, and the future will be endless. This is true, although the Tran dynasty is weak and incompetent, but the Vietnamese people have deep feelings for it, when the Ming army leveled the Hu family father and son, it was under the banner of helping the Tran family to restore the country, so that the Vietnamese people responded en masse. The result was to change Annan to Cochin. Forcibly establish a province. It can be said that it is self-defeating. It's not surprising that the soldiers are in trouble. And Jian Ding, the rebel, is actually the clan of the former King Chen of Annam, similar to the "Uncle Liu Huang" in the Three Kingdoms, under the banner of the Chen family. Naturally, many people in Annan have joined him.

Under the chaos. Zhu Di used Zhang Fu again. In February of the seventh year of Yongle (1409), Zhu Di ordered Zhang Fu to supervise the division and send an army of 200,000 to the south. Therefore, when Zhu Di was intending to go on the northern expedition to Mongolia, he ordered Zhang Fu to "win the battle quickly", but Zhang Fu was not in a hurry to enter the army, after arriving in Annam, he first appeased the local displaced people who fled due to the war, severely punished the local officials of the Ming Dynasty who were corrupt and harmed the people, and continued to "attack the heart", until the situation was slightly stable, and then went south to Cilian Prefecture in March, smashed the rebels' nest Xianziguan, and burned 600 rebel ships with a fire attack strategy, and by November, most of the rebel areas had been pacified. Cai Fu led the cavalry to outflank him from the land, led the naval division to attack, advanced by land and water, killed more than 40,000 rebels, and successfully captured the rebel leader Jian Ding. By January of the following year, Zhang Fu had leveled all the rebels, but Chen Jikuo, the "nephew emperor" set up by Jian Ding, led his troops to retreat to Nghe An in Annam to survive, but he also saw that the day was in danger. But at this time, the "turning point" appeared, Zhu Di in the north sent Qiu Fu to the north to conquer Mongolia, but the whole army was annihilated, and Zhu Di, who was furious, transferred an army of 500,000 to the north, and ordered Zhang Fu to go north quickly, and the task of suppressing the rebellion in Annam had to be left to Mu Sheng and others who had been defeated before. Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Fu left on the front foot, Chen Jikuo launched a counterattack on the back foot, defeating Mu Sheng, and the Annan rebellion was quelled and revived, and then it became a mess.

In February of the eighth year of Yongle (1410), Zhu Di's Northern Expedition to Mongolia won a great victory, in Genghis Khan's hometown of Han Nanli River to break the Mongolian Tatar Khan Benya, when the victory returned to the court, taking advantage of Zhu Di's "good mood", Chen Jikuo sent a messenger to request canonization, this time the envoy tried his best to shoot the horse, attracted Zhu Di "Longyan Dayue", and sealed Chen Ji to expand to "Jiaozhi Bu Political Envoy", Chen Ji, who wanted to ask for the king, expanded into dissatisfaction, and then intensified, expanded the rebellion, Mu Sheng, who guarded Annam, was incompetent and unable to confront it, so he could only shrink the defense line and barely protect himself. In anger, Zhu Di sent Zhang Fu to Annam in March, and Zhang Fu made a heavy hand after he arrived, first beheading the governor Huang Zhong (the captain of the "death squad" who took the lead in the battle of many states), which aroused the morale of the army, and then in August, the god of war threw himself into the sea, and in the absence of large warships, he formed a small boat commando team, broke the naval division of the Annam rebels, captured 400 enemy ships, and then conquered Chen Jikuo's old nest Yi'an. In December of the eleventh year of Yongle (1413), Zhang Fu and Mu Sheng joined forces, and Chen Jikuo fought a decisive battle on the Aizi River at the junction of today's Vietnam and Laos, Chen Jikuo used 8,000 war elephants to impact the Ming army, Zhang Fu was resourceful, and ordered the Ming army archers to aim, "one arrow shoots the elephant slave, two arrows shoot the elephant trunk", the result is that the group of elephants is in chaos, but flees in a hurry, and breaks down the Annam army formation, Chen Jikuo's whole army is annihilated, and after a net search, finally Yongle 12 years (1414) January in Laos Mengshu captured his whole family alive, so far, The rebellion in Annam, which lasted for several years, was completely put down. After successfully quelling the turmoil, Zhang Fu escorted Chen Jikuo's family back to Beijing. Zhu Di ordered Li Bin, the former deputy commander of Jiaozhi, to replace Zhang Fu and supervise Annan.

At that time, the Yongle Emperor was so powerful, he was trapped by just one Annan, and the current Donghu Dynasty is much bigger than Annan, if it really falls in, it is estimated that everything that Li Rusong has finally seized will be in vain.

"Hehe, don't panic, senior brother. This Burma must be eliminated, this is to promote the majesty of our Han Dynasty, and it is also to deter those petty people who have different intentions towards our Han Dynasty, so Burma must be destroyed. However, we can't only use soldiers to fight like the Yongle Emperor, and not fight with hearts. Don't worry, in this battle of Burma, not only does my Han not have to spend a penny, but also can get a lot of benefits," Li Rusong said with a smile.

"Oh?! Really? If this is the case, it is really possible to fight, the current treasury is very empty, if it weren't for the money you transferred from the Wufeng fleet, the country is estimated to be bankrupt" Wen Yan Wang Guoguang said first, it doesn't cost money to fight, and it can still make money, but it is a great thing for him.

The dog emperor of Wanli is too good at spending money, and the necessary places of the three major expeditions are counted, but for personal enjoyment and selfish desires, he built palaces on a large scale, bought luxury goods, etc., but spent all the treasury that was finally filled during the Zhang Juzheng period. Now Wang Guoguang and others are busy promoting brand-new reforms, training the new army, and other matters, and they need to spend money everywhere.

As for the war in Yunnan, according to the idea of Wang Guoguang and others, it is to let Deng Zilong and others defend Mubang, lay the defense situation first, and then launch a counterattack when the finances on this side are relieved.

If they could get a lot of money from the Donghu Dynasty, He Xinyin, Wang Guoguang and others would have started fighting a long time ago, so why wait until now?

"Hehe, this is just to open your eyes, we just want to turn Myanmar into a colony of the Han Dynasty!" (To be continued......)
