After getting the news that the king of Burma dismantled the English negotiation team and disemboweled, Yang Meng immediately became energetic, this thing is not bad, this is the least and most basic treatment of the invader, and in his hands, he will be even more cruel, so that these objects regret being a man.

The matter of Myanmar is basically a foregone conclusion, and the next thing Yang Meng has to pay attention to is how to keep Myanmar.

Yang Meng's ambition is also very big, keeping Myanmar is only one of them, and the total annihilation of the Anglo-Thai coalition army is the thing he expects most, but whether this thing can be done still needs the cooperation of the Burmese king, if the Burmese army is defeated again and again, with the fifty or sixty thousand horses of Mengla, if you want to annihilate the Anglo-Thai coalition army, it is also a bit of a fool's dream.

"Master, Andre, the special envoy of the President of France, has arrived in Mengla from the territory of Nanzhang, shall we see it or not?"

Yang Meng's first secretary, Solang Baima, brought the news of Andre's arrival, thinking of the French in Annan, Yang Meng couldn't help but want to laugh, these unlucky ghosts, I'm afraid that they have suffered a blood loss in the hands of the Xishan rebels, right?

These days, Yang Meng hasn't paid much attention to the situation in Annan, there has not been a year and a half over there, and it is impossible to be stable at all.

"Huh...... I'll see you when I'm here! Tell me about the situation in Annan. ”

With limited mental strength, when Yang Meng looks at the problem, he mostly pays attention to one point, and in other places, he has his own subordinates to sort out and report, and all he has to do is formulate major policies.

"The army of the Nguyen Dynasty launched five encirclement and suppression against the rebels in the north and south of Annan, but failed again and again, and so far the Nguyen Dynasty has lost more than 50,000 young people.

The Xishan rebels, with our support. The strength is also getting bigger and bigger. But the West Hill rebels. They never took the initiative to attack the Nguyen Dynasty's army, and only when the Nguyen Dynasty army came to attack, they would attack. ”

As Yang Meng's first secretary, Solang Baima is also absolutely competent, and in just two sentences, he said what Yang Meng should know.

"Good summary, Baima, you have more and more potential as a secretary.

The rebels of the West Hill, which were afraid of the intervention of France. Presumably, these people are in the north and south of Annan, in addition to looting property, they are also looting food, right? ”

praised Solang Baima, and Yang Meng also calculated the movements of the rebels in Xishan according to her summary.

"That's why the rebels in Xishan have been moving grain in large quantities, mostly to the mountains.

Master's vision is also very accurate! ”

As time goes by, the relationship between the two is slowly deepening, and there are only occasions for the two of them to pat each other and joke with each other. It is also a spice for feelings.

"Humph! It's good to think about it, but you want to run away after taking the things of the third master? There are no doors. Let our people write down the locations where they store their grain and sell them to the Ruan Dynasty in the future, as for those places where gold and silver are hidden, the time is right, let Ma Qinghu make a trip. ”

Yang Meng doesn't have a good impression of the people in the Southeast Peninsula, except for the white-eyed wolf, the people here are negative thieves, and the number of deaths is not too much, they die less, how will the Chinese stand on the table in the future?

However, the vision of the Xishan rebels is also remarkable, this method of fighting a protracted war is good, but it is a pity that neither Yang Meng nor the French can let the Xishan rebels survive for a long time.

"Master, when are you going to see Andre?"

"Right now! I think Andre is much more anxious than us, how to say that we are also old friends, and appropriate courtesy should still be. ”

Andre came here, most of the time because of the guilt and coercion to send troops, but although this idea was good, Yang Meng could not agree to it.

After a long absence of several months, Andre became a little anxious, which could be seen from his face, looking at Andre with a dusty face, Yang Meng slightly attracted him and let him sit in the chamber.

"Andre, my friend, how are you doing during this time, I'm not having a good time anyway, your country's policy is really not good!"

Without waiting for Andrei, who looked anxious, to speak, Yang Meng's face sank, and he began to ask for guilt, stepping on two boats, in a vain attempt to attack Yunnan, if it weren't for the fact that the French were still useful, Yang Meng would have annihilated their 8,000 expeditionary force in Annan.

"My lord, what do you say? What else do I have to ask you about this time? ”

Yang Meng's wording caught Andre off guard, and Andre, who was thinking of asking the teacher for the crime, was suddenly disrupted.

"How so? What else can be said? Is it a secret that you are working with the British to attack Yunnan in vain?

We are all politicians, no one is a fool, war is the manifestation of policy, what France did in Annam, I see it in my eyes, can't these facts explain the problem?

I am sincere to you, but you don't know what to do! Let's talk about it, what do you want to do next, I'm planning to send troops to Annam these days! ”

is similar to what Yang Meng said, many things are placed on the surface, and you can't hide from it, Andre calmed down a little embarrassed, and when he heard that Yang Meng was going to send troops to Annan, the look on his face couldn't help but be exciting.

"Your Excellency, are you going to help the Ruan Dynasty and pacify the rebels in Xishan?"

Now in Annam, France, needs help, the war in the early stage of the Nguyen Dynasty, the loss is not only the youth of the Nguyen Dynasty, the hot-blooded sons of France, but also more than 2,000 people killed, no one would have thought that overnight, the Xishan rebels will become a modern strong army.

"It's not! I'm here to help the rebels in the West Hills against the invaders from France! ”

"My lord, don't forget that we are a cooperative relationship?"

"Partnership, you remember! Is it the sincerity of you in France to cooperate with England and deal with me as a collaborator?

Now that you have been put on the table by the English, at this time, you think that Lao Tzu is here, is Lao Tzu a night pot? You pick it up if you want to use it, and throw it away if you don't want to use it?

The Yunnan-Vietnam Railway will start construction within three months, if the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway has not started within three months, Andrey, my friend, then France will withdraw from the Golden Peninsula, and I will cooperate with Xishan myself! ”

Xingshi asked for the guilt, Yang Meng didn't have the leisure to listen to Andre say some nonsense that was not nutritious, and the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway was something he had to do. Learn the art of railroads. It is also a must. It is better to learn from Milican than to study on the construction site of the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway.

As long as there is this Yunnan-Vietnam railway, Yang Meng is confident that he can train hundreds of thousands of railway technicians.

"This is impossible, in three months, we can't even wipe out the Xishan rebels, let alone start the construction of the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway.

The guns of the rebels in the West Mountains, but the lord provided them? ”

Three months to start work, under the guns of the rebels in the West Mountain? Yang Meng's statement is simply impossible in Andrei's opinion.

The purpose of Andrey's trip. It is to ask the origin of the weapons of the Xishan rebels, the Xishan rebels are all Indian versions of brown Bes, such firearms, according to the French intelligence personnel, in addition to the Indian East India Company, Yang Meng, the producer of cloud smoke, has the largest stock in his hands.

"I supply weapons to the rebels in Annan? Andrey, are you kidding? There are 40,000 people in my country, at least more than 100 million young and strong people of appropriate age, and you think I would want to arm my own people? Or arm someone first?

Although Annam was a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty. But the so-called vassal relationship existed in name only, and Annan was just a rebel in the eyes of the Qing court. Do you think I will go to war in vain to arm the Annanites?

Your opponent is England, don't you know that England has gone to war against Burma?

Presumably, the basis of the cooperation between you and England is that you capture Annam, England conquers Burma, and then use troops against Lao Tzu's Yunnan together.

Andre! The international situation is not as simple as you think, and the ambitions of England are not predictable to you.

Do you know the way? The war with Burma is not only England, but also the hundreds of thousands of troops in Siam, England already has Siam, why should they capture Burma?

The goal of England is the whole southeast peninsula, not just one Burma, is it possible to give Annan to you?

Once France occupies Annam, will it have no effect on the maritime trade routes of England?

France wants to get the market of the Qing Dynasty, I'm afraid England wants to get it even more, right?

It's not a cooperative relationship between you, you have been used by the British, and you are still stupid to ask Lao Tzu for guilt, are your brains full of dung? ”

Yang Meng simply analyzed the situation for Andre, it was not that he sowed discord, the British and Thai joined forces, it was a real failure, England may really want to cooperate with France, but what they did was easy to misunderstand, England had a basket in this matter, Yang Meng would not let it go at that time.

After listening to Yang Meng's analysis, Andrei's face became worse and worse, the Anglo-Burmese War, although most people don't pay attention to it, but France is very concerned, the French generals who were in Annam in the early stage only paid attention to the scale of the war, and they didn't notice the problems behind Siam's participation in the Anglo-Burmese War at all.

Another important point is the wit of France, what is the French encroaching on Annam for? Isn't it to contain the British India and monopolize the Qing market?

After Yang Meng's analysis, there is a probability that the weapons of the Xishan rebels are eight or nine percent likely to be provided by England, after all, a large number of new brown besses are provided, and only British India has such production capacity.

This is also a small trick played by Yang Meng, what he provided to the Burmese army are old brown bethes, so that even if England doubts himself, some words are not very easy to say, a large number of retired brown besses, most of them were sold to Miliccan and Mexico by the British government, and the return of weapons is not unusual, brown bess is outdated, whether it is Millican or Mexico, there are newer firearms to choose from.

And what Yang Meng gave to Annan were all firearms that had recently been traded with the East India Company, a musket, and the exact production date could be judged from the materials and workmanship.

The East India Company's brown Bess is getting worse and worse, and the materials are getting more and more rudimentary, I believe that the firearms of the rebels in the West Hills must have a certain number, which fell into the hands of the French, Britain and France are competitors, and it is impossible for France not to pay attention to the guns of England.

Indian model, poor quality, recent production, such a basin, it seems that no matter how you buckle it, it is difficult to deduct it on Yang Meng's head, and the English East India Company is the biggest suspect.

"I'll definitely find out when I get back."

France cooperates with England and has its own demands, while England, which is very strong in Asia, can cooperate with France without its own demands, and many facts cannot stand scrutiny, and once it is more true, many cooperation will end in vain.

"The choice of collaborators is very critical and delicate, Yunnan and France's demands are the most matched, Yunnan has nothing else to ask for France, just an opportunity to learn, and Yunnan has what France needs most, our cooperation foundation is very solid, but it is a pity that French politicians have chosen the wrong collaborators.

In the cooperation between us, you have crossed the line twice, there is a saying in our country that is very good, again and again, this is the second time, Andrey and cherish it!

Don't let my sincerity turn into anger, which cannot be stopped by the six thousand French soldiers alone.

If you choose the wrong collaborator, you will have to pay the price, and the price you pay is a powerful Xishan rebel army, increase your troops! That's the price of your successive crossings.

Three months, you can be regarded as the ultimatum, after three months, the Yunnan-Vietnam railway will not start construction, France will forever lose the right to land in Annam. ”

Andre, who was thinking of Xingshi and asking for guilt, was given the most reckonal by Yang Meng, something is wrong with this? But looking at Lord Yang with a resolute expression, Andre's words couldn't be spoken. (To be continued......)
