Chapter 401: The Yellow Sparrow is behind

The floating corpses in the Irrawaddy River have a great impact on all parties, the English have run away, the Siamese are also moving things home, and Yang Meng's spies who have scattered are also afraid!

In addition to the shadow people, Yang Meng's intelligence force in Lower Burma has also been hit hard, and almost all of them have been withdrawn, so it is difficult to grasp the movements of the British army.

"Let the medical hall prepare quinine, miasma herbs, and mosquito repellent herbs, even if there are many deaths, we have to build up an intelligence force in Lower Burma, without intelligence, we are deaf and blind, what are we talking about fighting?

Is the barge artillery team ready? Let Qiao Gunai cut off the retreat of the main force of Siam, and if he stands on the wrong team, he will pay the price and rob them of the spoils!

Let the Burmese army follow the method of floating corpses, as long as it is not the territory controlled by the Burmese army, pollute all the water sources with corpses, and encourage the Burmese king to move the population, and must not let the British build any puppet army in Burma. ”

In this game of chess on the Southeast Peninsula, Myanmar and England are the key, so it is absolutely impossible to leave the battlefield with the intelligence power of Burma, and the retreat is only temporary, although most of the rivers in Burma will be polluted, but Yang Meng also has a way for intelligence officers to survive.

The location of Myanmar is very critical, Myanmar, adjacent to Malacca, is a strategic maritime area, and there are too many people of Burmese, Shan, Karen and Mon, there is no Chinese in Myanmar in the previous life, let alone the Lisu people, genocide is a disaster for Myanmar and Siam, but for Yang Meng, this is just a strategic means.

In Yang Meng's plan. Although there is a shadow of genocide. But in Yang Meng's plan. This is only the first step, but I didn't expect the angry Siamese to go directly to the last step, which can be said to be an unexpected gain.

The English are only temporarily retreating, and I believe that soon, they will also come up with a way to deal with water pollution, and even if they can't do it, there are still many people in India!

While England retreated. Let Myanmar and Thailand kill the dark first, and when the time comes, after England and Siam join forces, they will help Myanmar, and the matter of Myanmar will be basically completed.

Yang Meng wants to turn Myanmar and Thailand into extremely racist countries, so that whoever wants to use them, these two countries must think carefully.

In the sequence of the two nationalities, add a Chinese and a Lisu. As long as such a combination is formed, then the situation on the Southeast Peninsula. You can control it.

"Third master, the medicine in the medical hall is ready, as long as the people from the mountain monkey come back and bring the medicine, they can go back again.

The Burmese king has begun to sweep away the Thai residents in Burma, and the matter of hoeing and rape is easy.

It's just that the fleet is not very well prepared, according to the information from the front, Siam has plundered too much wealth in Burma, far exceeding the capacity of the barge fleet, I am afraid that we can only plunder part of it! ”

Nothing else was difficult, but the task of plundering the wealth of the Siamese war was difficult to accomplish, and Siam's army of more than 20,000 was lagging behind the elite, just held back by a large amount of wealth.

In the past two months, the hastily built power boats and barges on the Salween River have simply not been able to meet the capacity to transport these goods, and Yunnan is a little too prepared to be the yellow finch behind Siam.

"Use your brain well, you can't get back all the property you have, you're not very competent as a military advisor! Capacity, that's all there is to it, how to use the existing capacity, to bring these goods back, you can't come up with any good ideas? ”

Yang Meng tapped the position of his temple with his finger, and motioned Xu Ziwei to use his brain, can a living person suffocate urine to death?

"Third master, that's a battlefield, once our people are exposed, they will be attacked by both Burma and Thailand at the same time!"

Xu Ziwei's concern is indeed a very real problem, the king of Siam was assassinated, after a humiliating war, he lost more than 20,000 elites, and the top of the military, and now Siam is angry!

Not to mention Burma, the royal city was directly burned, more than a dozen big cities were looted, and the people slaughtered by Siam were at least hundreds of thousands, and seeing their things being robbed, can they not go to war?

"Sometimes, thinking too much is not necessarily a good thing, who is the first to do this? Qiao Gu Nai, this is a righteous Burmese, and now the Siamese are still busy transferring goods, so that the Lisu people in Siam can march to the east bank of the Salween River, block the path of goods into Burma, and at the same time ambush the Siamese.

Let Qiao Gunai's men and horses, drive barge gunboats, block the course of the Salween River, and trap the Siamese army behind the palace on the west bank of the Salween River.

The first transit point for the Siamese was the plain on the east bank of the Salween River, where all the goods would be gathered and the remaining Siamese army would defend on the west bank.

Presumably, when the Siamese people transfer their goods, they let the good things cross the river first, right? The last to cross the river is definitely the less valuable timber and building elements, and this is our chance.

The Salween River was blocked, and all that was left on the east bank should be the people, so they happened to be coerced to load the ship for us, and let Qiao Gunai set up a camp upstream on the west bank, suppress the Siamese army in front, and temporarily store the looted goods in the back.

Myanmar and Thailand don't speak now, the remaining building components are Qiao Gunai's merits, and the good things are directly transported back to Yunnan, with the merit of blocking the Siamese army this time, presumably the king of Burma will not treat Qiao Gunai's Lisu people harshly.

The men and horses on the east bank should be elite, and the men and horses on the west bank can be ordinary, let Qiao Gunai fight leisurely, don't kill the Siamese army at once, these people must always be left to the king of Burma! ”

Looting is also one of Yang Meng's professions, how to fight the time difference, how to choose the location, Yang Meng basically does not need to go to the field to investigate, with the hasty actions of the Siamese, he can only use the method of setting up a transit station to temporarily protect this massive war wealth.

The amount of gold and silver in Yunnan is definitely rich and rivals the country, gold and silver are of little use to Yang Meng now, Yunyan is the currency of Yunnan's foreign exchanges, and within the four provinces, grain stamps, meat stamps, and salt stamps. There is already a popular trend. Yang Meng's purpose in plundering these gold and silver. Part of it is for the money everywhere, and the biggest reason is that the gold and silver that are plundered now will be the private property of the Yang family in the future.

"It turns out that the third master looks at people's hearts! The grasp of people's hearts, the chief is ashamed of himself, and the third master's plan is not as good. Wonderful! ”

After listening to Yang Meng's plan in detail, Xu Ziwei also gave a thumbs up, he, the proprietor, has reached the peak of his grasp of people's hearts, combined with the information he has obtained, the success rate of this matter is definitely more than ninety percent.

"Let's go down and make arrangements! Remember, if you want to defeat the enemy, you have to think from the perspective of others, and you don't know what he wants. How to trap him, how to trap them?

Let some of the generals of the new army follow Qiao Gunai. Look at what the battlefield looks like, our manpower is inferior in experience, and learning a little more is a little bit. ”

With Yang Meng's orders, nearly 100 generals and officers of the new army, following the 20,000 Lisu soldiers trained by Qiao Gunai in the past six months, embarked on the journey.

Although the Lisu people are not doing very well, the half-farming and half-hunting way of life has allowed most of the men of the Lisu people to serve as soldiers, and the Lisu people in Myanmar and Thailand must have a stable environment if they want to develop greatly.

In this Burma-Thailand war, first create a stable living environment for the Lisu people in Myanmar, plus their own food supply, presumably in ten or twenty years, the population of the Lisu people here will increase several times, with these population foundation, the Lisu people will become a big ethnic group in Myanmar.

Qiao Gunai's Lisu warriors, although it was late, but the time to catch up was just right, most of the property plundered by the Siamese had been transported to the east bank, and now most of the pillars and beams on the Salween River pontoon bridge were carried by one person.

In a vacant lot not far from the east bank, all kinds of boxes, bags, and Buddha statues were piled up into hills, although most of the items were hastily wrapped, but under the sun's rays, the huge freight yard still emitted a bright light.

"Are the people of the East Coast ready?"

"It's ready!"

"So what are you waiting for? Fire the cannon and blow up those three pontoons! ”

The barge transporting troops has already docked upstream, and the remaining three fleets are all barge artillery teams, with Qiao Gunai's order, the three fleets blocked the river and crossed the river, and nearly 100 mortar guns fired the first salvo, only breaking a pontoon bridge.

"One team blew up the bridge, and the other two places, after landing on the shore, the artillery fire suppressed the Siamese soldiers on both sides of the strait!"

Qiao Gunai's fleet is going down the river, coupled with the towing of the power boat, the speed is very fast, and most of the Siamese soldiers are still watching the excitement on the shore! The sudden artillery fire directly frightened the unprepared Siamese soldiers into scattering.

After the Siamese soldiers reacted, the three pontoon bridges had all been broken, although the back road was broken, the Siamese soldiers had a desperate heart, but this desperate heart came a little late.

The artillery on the west bank is preparing for the pursuit of the Burmese army, and there is no artillery on the east bank except for one or two thousand soldiers to maintain order?

Most of the Siamese soldiers on the east bank were old and weak, and they were scattered by artillery fire at the first time, and the Siamese soldiers on the west bank fought against the artillery team with muskets for only a stick of incense, leaving nearly a thousand corpses, and they were scattered.

The fleet carried less than 3,000 soldiers to build a camp in the upper reaches of the west bank, and the other 17,000 men were all gathered on the east bank of the Salween River.

The three barge artillery teams were also trying their best to suppress the Siamese army on the west bank, although the Siamese soldiers were red-eyed, but their own muskets could not reach the barges on the river, and finally the Siamese soldiers on the west bank lost their courage and dispersed.

Qiao Gunai's fleet only had six powered boats, and the barges were also built in a hurry, and after more than a dozen rounds of shelling, most of the barges had begun to seep water.

"Remove a power boat, let's lean to the east bank, as long as the Siamese soldiers do not set up artillery on the river bank, they will not threaten us."

Artillery is also a very fucked thing, the distance is far and you can't fight, the distance is not easy to fight, although the river surface where the Siamese army erected the pontoon bridge is very narrow, but it also has a span of dozens of meters, and it is also a skill to accurately hit the barges in the river and set up artillery.

The Siamese army mostly uses old-fashioned breech guns, which are heavy, powerful, and have a short range, while Qiao Gunai's mortar on the ship has a range that is not inferior to these artillery.

Two barge artillery teams blocked the river, and the remaining four power boats, each dragging a dozen barges, slowly leaned on the west bank, and built a wharf with precious wood on the spot.

The Siamese high-level on the west bank of the Salween River, as soon as they heard that the pontoon bridge was broken, they were frightened at that time, and they already knew the number of the Burmese army, at least 50,000 people, once caught up by the Burmese army, there was only one ending, the whole army was annihilated!

The annihilation of the whole army is not the key, the key is the newly enthroned King of Siam, Rama IV is also on the front line, once the King of Siam is captured, what will the outcome look like?

At this time, the Siamese high-level people, who would care about any property, their king is the key, did not send troops to regain control of the West Bank, Siamese high-level people, choose to move downstream and leave Burma.

The Siamese soldiers ran away, which is different from the order Qiao Gunai got, but he didn't expect the Siamese people to be a loser who wants to give up his fortune, and Qiao Gunai can only make a decision on this matter, and selected 3,000 people from the east bank to cross to the west bank to pursue the Siamese army that ran away, and sent a team of men and horses to inform the Burmese king who was pursuing.

After working day and night for nearly four days, the goods looted by the Siamese in Burma changed hands, and after the Yellow Sparrow's livelihood, these horses turned around and left, regardless of Qiao Gunai, who was pursuing the Siamese army on the front line. (To be continued......)
