The caravan can go, Shu Jin can go to India, and the army can go.

The emperor was determined to open up the land road, and although it was a long-term plan, it was not delayed in carrying it out at all.

At the same time, it is also the most ideal choice to use the power of Southwest Toast. After all, they are more adapted to the climate and environment, and have better ways to deal with miasma.

In fact, in the emperor's opinion, the most daunting thing was the continuous rainy season in the subtropics.

During the monsoon season from June to September every year, the sky and the earth are constantly raining, and all rivers and valleys are overflowing, trees are floating, roads are broken, and traffic is cut off.

Therefore, whether it is a miasma or a rainy season, the time suitable for the use of soldiers is only five or six months per year.

If you want to attack the poison and stabilize the occupation, you must invest enough troops and materials at one time, and even if the transportation is cut off, it can be independently supported for half a year.

It is one way to feed the war with war and solve the problem of grain, grass and materials on the spot. But in terms of ammunition, it is not so easy to replenish.

Referring to the history of the British conquest of India, the emperor believed that a well-equipped army of 10,000 would be enough to gain a firm foothold in one state or two groups. The main problem is the ammunition and materials carried by the army.

With such considerations, it is still very necessary to build a relatively strong and stable passage with a large carrying capacity.

With gunpowder to blast rocks, cement with better and better performance, lifting facilities, and more efficient cutting tools, it is no longer out of reach to open roads between reckless jungles and high mountains.

Wang Sanshan made no secret of the emperor's enthusiasm and ambition for expansion, although this could not be put into written materials, but all the local officials understood the next strategic deployment of the Ming Empire.

The invasion of Burma is only the first step in large-scale expansion, in order to open up Tianzhu, well, also called the poisonous country, to make preliminary preparations.

Tianzhu has gold and silver treasures, ivory treasures, and vast fertile land. And this Tianzhu is still composed of many small states, and even the strength of Myanmar is inferior.

"Lord Wang, the Dao clan is willing to move 30,000 people and serve as Meng Lun's envoy."

"The Na clan is willing to move 40,000 people and serve as the envoy of Jiesha Xuan."

"Sha's Wish ......."

Just like the bidding in the auction hall, several local officials took the lead in bidding and were enthusiastic.

It's just that the land and the propaganda envoys are official, and these local officials are not stupid. The territory under the jurisdiction of these five Xuanfu envoys is a trade route, a lucrative trade route.

The merchants who came and went, and the conquest army that was constantly invested, would bring rolling income to this trade route.

What's more, you can also go to Tianzhu to stake land and rob wealth. It is different from the country, the court and the emperor are wary and suspicious of Tusi, and the development space is very limited.

Wang Sanshan smiled, brushed his beard and jaw, but did not make a decision easily.

The highest price wins, of course, this is what the emperor meant. At the same time, the strength of the southwest toast is diluted, so that its energy is outward, and it is a good foundation for the future reform of the land.

The reconstruction and expansion of the Shu body poison road will also enable the southwestern provinces to achieve a leap forward in economic development. Southwest Shu brocade, cane, lacquerware, miscanthus and other commercial goods, there are new export channels.

Kunming, Dali, Yongchang, Tengchong and other places in Yunnan Province, as the necessary towns of the trade route, will undergo great changes with the growth of the flow of people.

It's a pity that the old man is about to step down and return to his hometown.

Wang Sanshan sighed in his heart, quite unwilling. Although he is old, his ambition is still there.

Well, after the main force returns to Yunnan, there is still a big thing to do.

Wang Sanshan pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, thinking of the emperor's secret and confessional errand. Mu Guogong has guarded Yunnan for hundreds of years, and now it is time for the curtain call.

……………….

The news of defeating the Burmese army and occupying the city of Ava, the capital of Burma, was transmitted back to the capital as quickly as possible.

It is a few days faster than the 800-mile rush, thanks to the construction of the communication signal tower.

Although some of the routes were interrupted due to the mountains and rivers, and it was necessary to ride horses or boats to connect the routes, the speed was still breathtaking.

In the capital, it was early winter, but the news of victory diluted the chill and aroused the enthusiasm of the people in the capital.

In the eyes of the common people, the occupation of the capital is equivalent to the destruction of the country. Regardless of the difference, the common people are willing to think this way and say it.

After the occupation of the city, this is the second "destroyed" country, another "annihilation" war, the gold content is different, this can be regarded as the real show that the Ming Empire revitalized the country, re-established the authority of the Heavenly Empire.

"Myanmar is not a good thing, there have been several battles when Shenzong was there, and many territories have been snatched away by them."

"Now even the interest has been taken back, if the Burmese king is captured and taken to the capital to be taken prisoner, then-"

"I care about how much I have captured, war bonds, but all my savings."

"If you win, can you still lose money? You put your heart in your stomach, wait for the count, report the numbers, and go home and count the money! ”

"I said, our news is still not well-informed, a few days ago, there was a high price of bonds, must know that the victory is decided."

………………

The victory in the battle of Burma has become the talk of the people again.

War bonds, too, have become one of the focal points. How much can be gained from a short one-year bond, not only the people are concerned, but the emperor is also estimating.

Although the exact number has not yet been counted, the approximate number was reported to the emperor first.

"Emperor, there are almost seven or eight million taels of gold and silver, three or four hundred thousand people for human traffic, plus the donations of the local officials, and other miscellaneous items, less than ten million, which is not much."

Li Chengcheng settled the accounts quickly, and the emperor's account housekeeper was very conscientious.

The emperor smiled and shook his head, and after removing all the inputs of the war and the money to reward the army, it was still certain that there were three or four million taels left.

What's more, this is still an immediate benefit, and the occupied land is given to the local officials, and they will also have to pay taxes in the future.

Well, the war bond was only issued for three million yuan, which is about half of the total investment in the war.

Well, a lot of money, the emperor fiddled with his fingers, still not able to calculate the exact number.

With this windfall profit, it has laid a good foundation for the issuance of bonds in the future. The one-year period is too short, and the three-year period should be issued, including the capture of the Hetao, Luzon and other military operations.

The immediate gains of these actions are not large, but they are focused on the long-term, and the three-year period will not be too little, which will discourage everyone's enthusiasm to buy.

By the way, we have to have a victory celebration, so that the common people can get some benefits, and they are happy and proud of the country's prosperity.

You don't need to have many things, and you don't have to be valuable, even if it's a piece of paper, some people grab it.

The emperor groaned, calculated how much income he could get from the 500,000 bonds purchased by the royal family, and how much he took out to send things to the people.
