It took nearly a month to fight from Yangon to Myshta, which was an unprecedented feat for Siam, but the month-long march was also a great burden for the Siamese army, and after reaching Myshta, the Siamese army did not burn the city, but camped in Myshta, which had almost become an empty city.

Although this battle of revenge went extremely smoothly, it was only when the Siamese army could advance rapidly without encountering resistance from the Burmese army, and if the battle began, the Siamese top brass did not think that they had the strength to conquer Rangoon in a battle.

Hitting Mishita is almost the limit of the Siamese army's supply, although the Burmese army that hastily withdrew, although it left a lot of property, but not a grain of rice left, even the grain that could not be taken away, will also be burned on the spot, a slightly long supply line, limiting the Siamese army's footsteps to continue to penetrate.

And the high-level Siamese army who hit Mishita also faintly felt that something was wrong, and the walls were clear, which was Siam's method of dealing with the invasion of the Burmese army, and now it was used by the Burmese army on itself, which was also another reason why the Siamese army was stationed in Mishita.

It is good to think with the top brass of the Siamese army, the Burmese army is using the method of clearing the wilderness with strong walls, and the army of the Burmese king could have been held at Mishita, and the despicability of retreating to a distance of hundreds of miles is not without reason, the reason is that the Burmese army also wants to take revenge and avenge the destruction of the royal city.

Since Yang Meng arrived in Mengla, it has been almost two months, and there is no way to do it whether it is Burma, Vietnam, Thailand, England and France, they are all busy fighting, only Yang Meng is still relatively leisurely.

"Hah! The Burmese king has the determination of a strong man to break his wrist, but I did not expect it, the Siamese army of Mishita. It's going to be bloody. Counter. What do you think of the battle of Myshta? ”

Although there is aggression between Burma and Thailand, there is no war, which is also unexpected by Yang Meng, I thought that the king of Burma was a soft egg, but after the king of Burma moved the capital to be humble, Yang Meng did not see it that way, and the king of Burma also had strategists around him!

"According to the mountain monkey report. The army under the king of Burma already had 60,000 or 70,000, and they forcibly requisitioned a lot of grain along the way, and hundreds of thousands of people had no problem holding out for half a year.

The route of the retreat of the Burmese king is also very particular, the Irrawaddy River Valley, which is the grain-producing area of Myanmar, as long as the Mishita is recaptured, the Burmese army and the Anglo-Thai coalition army have been facing off for a year and a half. It's the minimum.

Moreover, on the way to retreat, the Burmese king also blocked the channel of the Irrawaddy River. This is to guard against the British gunboats, the Burmese king's strategy is very good, and some of this battle has been fought!

The purpose of the Burmese king's abandonment of Mishta should be to eat the entire Siamese army that captured Myshta, and it was only a matter of time before the Siamese army of Myshta was annihilated. ”

After listening to Xu Ziwei's analysis, Yang Meng also had an idea in his heart, sand table deduction seems to be a good means of training.

"What advice do you have for the battle in Mishita?"

While Yang Meng was planning his own affairs in his heart, he asked Xu Ziwei what he thought about the battle of Mishita.

"In the battle of Mishita, it is only a matter of time before the Burmese army wins, but how to deal with the Siamese army that died in battle, there is a lot of attention in it."

"Hmmm! You're not trying to sink the corpse into the river, are you? In this way, the entire lower reaches of the Irrawaddy River, within a year or two, will be plagued by plague! ”

"It is this method that is nothing more than that Rangoon has fallen, and it is impossible for the Burmese army to take it back, so it is better to come up with a desperate plan and destroy the lower reaches of the Irrawaddy River!"

"Hmmm! Not a bad idea, it's not our own territory anyway, let Qiao Gunai and the Burmese ministers we bought off do this! Occupy Burma, the bastards think well!

Commander, have you ever heard of the sand table deduction? ”

After the corpses of tens of thousands of people sink into the river, the lower reaches of the Irrawaddy River will be plagued.

But that was a matter for the Burmese, Siamese and British, and it was nothing to Yang Meng, what he saw was that the Great War between Burma, Thailand and Britain would benefit his side, that is, to cultivate the strategic awareness of the generals.

"Third master, do you mean ......?"

Glancing at Yang Meng, Xu Ziwei's eyes were full of amazing light, this is a good idea!

"Practice! Go down and arrange for the craftsmen! Make a large number of topographical sand tables on the southeast peninsula, let the whole army participate in the deduction, and leave the matter of selecting generals to you, this is a big matter, if you kid dare to seek benefits in this matter, it is to find death! ”

It is not easy to popularize strategic thinking among the new army through the study of military monographs; although Yang Meng has been strengthening the literacy rate of the new army, most of the new army in Yunnan is still from a poor background, and their knowledge and experience are very restrictive to them.

Yang Meng does not deny that some people are born to fight better than others, but serious army battles require serious strategic deployment, not a stroke of genius, stable combat power and command system are the guarantee of long-term prosperity, with miracles, where do so many miracles come from!

"Little Zhilu Dao! All the affairs that the third master is looking at with the eyes, lend me the courage to do it, and I don't dare to give the third master a discount! ”

"Dog's day! Don't do anything to make a fuss, you want the third master to be accommodating to you, right? ”

Xu Ziwei is a living villain, greedy for money, lustful, and taking advantage of the situation to oppress people, he is the best at it, but whenever he shows a servile appearance, eighty percent of them will have an accident again.

"The eyes of the third master are like electricity! Isn't this over there, I found a few Yi girls over there, and I want the third master to be accommodating! ”

Sure enough, but Yang Meng doesn't care much about these things, morality and loyalty, Yang Meng still values the latter, it's nothing more than the way of the world, and he is not a clean person, and there is nothing wrong with bringing a group of dirty subordinates.

"Humph! It's a big girl this time, right? Whatever you want to get abroad, cross the border and enter the country, what I said before is still good, play less after such a side ball, it's easy to lose your life!

This time, when I go back, I will say that I sent it to you, remember, you have to pay attention after entering the country! ”

Yang Meng took the commotion in Mengla as a serious matter, and the Siamese army stationed in Mishita began to have bad luck, 50,000 Burmese troops. Blocked the gates of Myshta. Begin to set up positions on the front of Myshita City.

The king of Burma was also ruthless this time. He wanted to starve to death the Siamese army stationed in Mishita, and he was very familiar with Western firearms, Burma, Vietnam, and Thailand, and the firearms brought by the Portuguese had been used in actual combat for hundreds of years.

The hundreds of three-pounder cannons that Yang Meng sold to the Burmese king became a moat to block Mishita.

The Siamese army stationed at Myshta, due to the rush of the march, did not carry a single artillery piece at all. The main force was surrounded, and the follow-up Siamese army did not have the strength to attack the Burmese army's position, and the Burmese and Thai sides launched a confrontation near Mishita.

The more than 20,000 Siamese troops stationed in Mishita were dead corpses in the eyes of the King of Burma, and all he had to do was to let the Siamese watch their 20,000 elite soldiers starve to death.

As for the Siamese army's attack on Mishita, it was the most anticipated thing by the Burmese king, the terrain of Mishita. Suitable for defense but not for offense, defensive operations. The Burmese army was not even afraid of the English army, let alone the Siamese.

The hundreds of artillery pieces sold by the Yang family to the Burmese king are also where the Burmese king's confidence lies, as long as there is this artillery array, let alone the Siamese, the British army is coming, and he also has the hope of victory.

The king of Burma originally wanted to sue for peace, but the Siamese people went too far and burned down the royal city, which was too big, not to mention that the Siamese army also slaughtered countless Burmese, looted and burned countless Buddhist temples, and never died! This is the result of Yang Meng's series of conspiracies.

The Burmese who had lost their fighting spirit were forced to hug by the Siamese, and then there was a day and night of genocide, and surrender became an unattainable thing for the Burmese king, as long as the Burmese king had the intention of surrendering, I am afraid that the next coup d'état should be.

Siam and England jointly went to war against Burma, which gave the Burmese king great authority for a while, but because of the atrocities of the Siamese army, there was only one way left for the Burmese king, and he would not surrender to the death!

Originally, if the war had started normally, Burma would have surrendered, but the tyranny of the Siamese made all the Burmese feel frightened.

Fighting to the death, more brutal treatment of the Siamese, this is the voice of all Burmese, although the time of the war is very short, but this voice has spread throughout the whole of Upper Burma, and there are more and more troops from the king of Qin, 80,000 troops, hundreds of thousands of strong men, countless grains, and the arms from Yunnan, these things also give the Burmese king the confidence to fight to the death.

The army stationed in Mishita was also extremely important to Siam, with 20,000 of the most elite soldiers and countless high-ranking generals, if more than 20,000 people died, half of Siam's army would collapse.

The Siamese remembered the peace talks at this time, but several batches of messengers who went to deliver the letter were all sent back with intact peace letters on their heads.

The meaning of the king of Burma is also very clear, there is only one battle word, and nothing else should be said.

Five days later, the Siamese army in Mystha ran out of food, and tens of thousands of strong men in Myanmar also used these five days to dig three layers of trenches three meters deep outside the city of Myshta.

The battle of revenge of the Siamese has become a war of revenge for the Siamese and the Burmese, once one side is defeated, there is only one fate, and that is the slaughter of the entire clan!

The Burmese army has now begun to clean up internally, and all the ethnic Thai people in Myanmar are facing the fate of being slaughtered.

Time passed, the Siamese were in a hurry, and it was easy to organize an army of 15,000, but the result was a great rout, and the Siamese army, which had lost 7,000 men, had no strength to fight again.

The strategy of Yang Meng and Xu Ziwei was also faithfully implemented by the Burmese army, and more than 6,000 corpses of the Siamese army were still intact, and the Irrawaddy River became a blood-colored river.

A large number of corpses began to drift from Mishita, drifting to the mouth of the sea near Mishaya, the corpses have been completely decomposed and expanded, a corpse explosion, frightened the British troops stationed nearby, did not wait for Siam's letter of help, the British army took the initiative to withdraw from the Irrawaddy River basin, what does a large number of floating corpses mean, the British army is very clear, Burma's climate and mosquitoes coupled with polluted river water, the Irrawaddy River basin will soon become a ghost.

On the tenth day of the siege, the city of Mishita began to smell of corpses, and the heat and humidity became the deadly killer of the trapped Siamese army, and the Burmese army's blockade of Mishita was very tight, and the Siamese army that rushed out of the city could not even see the shadow of the Burmese army, and would be defeated in the artillery fire.

Can't fight, the Siamese people have no choice but to sue for peace many times, but the king of Burma is still the same as before, but this time the Siamese people are paid tribute to the heads of tens of thousands of Tai people, and the oath of immortality.

A large amount of property dragged down the limited strength of Siam, and even if the remaining 20,000 people were gathered, it would be impossible for the Siamese army to break through the defense line of the Burmese army.

A war of revenge, but deepened the hatred between each other, seeing that there was no hope of rescue, the Siamese army also began to do its best to transfer the looted wealth, only with this wealth, Siam can still organize men and horses to continue fighting, the population of Siam is so much, although the loss of the most elite soldiers, but the defense of Siam is no problem.

On the fifteenth day of the siege, Myshita had become a dead city, and after a raid, the Burmese army easily breached the city, the remaining thousands of Siamese troops were slaughtered, and more decomposing corpses began to drift down the Irrawaddy River.

In the battle of Mishita, the Burmese army annihilated more than 20,000 Siamese troops, which was a small tabloid revenge, but 20,000 people were not enough to extinguish the anger of the Burmese people.

The Siamese people are a good breath of evil, but the loss of 20,000 elites and countless high-ranking military officials is more serious than the consequences of the assassination of the King of Siam. (To be continued......)
