Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 781
Zhu Youjian's imperial decree was passed down, and the two navies of the Ming Dynasty immediately began to act.

Haijiao led the way from the Lancang River, and Huang Fei drove directly from Malacca to the coast of Myanmar.

The two armies are mainly to deter Burma this time, and the other two small countries are definitely not good at resisting Ming.

After the navy approached Burma, Zhu Youjian issued an order to ask Mu Tianbo, the Duke of Qian, to prepare to send troops at any time.

Once Myanmar refused to allow Ming Dynasty to restore the three declarations and six comforts, Duke Qian immediately dispatched troops from land and two navies to attack the Toungoo Dynasty in Myanmar.

Things were similar to Zhu Youjian's imagination. After Siam and Laos received the notice from Daming Honglu Temple, they did not struggle needlessly.

Japan, Manila, Batavia, Malacca, Ceylon, Temasek and other countries were all defeated by the Ming Dynasty under the control of the Netherlands and Spain.

How can these small countries have the ability to resist Da Ming, once they annoy Da Ming, they may be massacred by Da Ming.

During the resistance against the invasion of Ming Dynasty, more than 100 million Japanese were massacred. The two countries only had a few 10 people, which was not enough for Ming Dynasty to kill.

After receiving the notification from Ming Dynasty, Siam and Laos decided to merge into Ming Dynasty as a whole after two days of discussion.

Their only requirement is not to disband the royal family, let the royal family continue to manage the country, and Ming can garrison troops in Siam and Laos.

Zhu Youjian immediately agreed to their request, but there was also a condition.

The royal families of Siam and Laos can only be in power for one term. After the death of this king, the royal family no longer has the right to manage the country.

At that time, Daming will officially take over Siam and Laos, and their royal family will still be retained, and Daming will give them salaries.

Regarding Daming's condition, the two small royal families could only submit obediently. They knew that the two armies of Daming had approached the two countries, and they knew that they were powerless to resist Daming.

But Myanmar does not have the current affairs of Siam and Laos, and they feel that they are strong enough.

After receiving the notice from Daming, King Talong was furious. He not only tore up the notice, but also beheaded the messenger from Daming Honglu Temple.

When the news reached the capital, Zhu Youjian was not only not angry, but laughed out loud:
"Good, good! They just provided an excuse for me to destroy Toungoo, and ordered Mu Tianbo to launch an attack on Burma immediately.

In addition, the Dragon Banner Army had trained in the southern rainforest for half a year, and ordered the Dragon Banner Army to immediately go to Burma to support An Mutianbo. "

The Toungoo Dynasty (1531-1752) was the most powerful feudal dynasty in Myanmar history.

Chinese historical records call it Dongwu, Donghu, and Diwula, and it was translated as Dongwu, Dongwu, Dongwu, and Mandongniu in Jiajing and Wanli years.

Toungoo was an important area in ancient Burma, and it was the center of the Ming Dynasty from the Yunnan Chief Political Commissioner and Jiaozhi Chief Political Commissioner to various Burmese departments.

All the way to Awa in the north, to Bagan in the west, to Jingmai in the east, and to Baigu in the south all use Toungoo as the main road of transportation.

The Ayeyarwady River Delta under its jurisdiction has fertile land and abundant rainfall. Together with Siam and Annan, it is also known as the world's three major rice producing areas.

At the end of the 13th century AD, the glorious Bagan Dynasty in Myanmar fell, and Myanmar entered a period of great division thereafter.

In northern Myanmar, the Ava Dynasty ruled by the Shan nationality and centered on Ava City (near Mandalay today) was formed.

In the south, the Baigu Dynasty ruled by the Mon nationality and centered on Baigu (now Bagu) was formed.

From 1386 to 1425, the two countries clashed continuously, known as the "40 Years' War" in history.

In addition to these two big countries, there are Toungoo, Mubang, Mengyang, Mengmi, Arakan and other countries, among which Toungoo of the Bamar nationality is the strongest.

After the Shan people ruled Ava, the Bamar people couldn't bear their oppression and moved to Toungoo one after another.

During the 40-year war, Taungoo was far away from the war zone and was not damaged by the war. It became a refuge for the Bamar people to escape war and famine, so the population continued to increase.

Toungu obtained the "granary" area of ​​Jiaokexi through marriage with Ava, which promoted the development of agriculture; he also formed an alliance with the powerful Baigu Dynasty to contain the invasion of the Ava Dynasty. In 1535 Mangrui body began to attack.

When the Baigu Dynasty was defeated in 1539, Mangrui Ti carried out the policy of uniting the Mon people, making the Mon soldiers use them, and hired Portuguese soldiers with modern weapons and warships.

In 1541, it captured Hong Kong and Maduba, a major foreign trade center.When Mangruit died, central and southern Myanmar were basically unified.

Mang Yinglong succeeded to the throne.He destroyed the Ava Dynasty, conquered the Shan states, completed the second unification of Myanmar, and adopted a series of measures for the development of politics, economy, and culture, with outstanding achievements.

After Mang Yinglong's death, peasant uprisings occurred one after another, and feudal lords in various places re-separated their regimes.The feudal lords of the Arakan Dynasty took advantage of the opportunity of Portuguese mercenaries and united with the Toungoo feudal lords to capture Baigu in 1599 and captured the Burmese king Mangyingli (Nanda Boyin in Burma).

The Toungoo Dynasty was at stake, but King Liangyuan, the youngest son of Mang Yinglong, saved the decline, occupied the "granary" area centered on Awa, and kept half of Upper Burma's rivers and mountains.

Anabilon, who succeeded him to the throne, recovered all the lost land in lower Myanmar, especially Shalian, which was occupied by the Portuguese, thus completing the unification of Myanmar again.

At this time, the Toungoo Dynasty was already in its strongest period in history, so other small countries were not afraid of Daming.

After Myanmar's crime of tearing up documents and killing envoys was reported by Daming Daily, it aroused public outrage in Ming Dynasty, and the whole Ming Dynasty demanded that Myanmar should be punished.

Zhu Youjian ordered that on the 20th day of the first lunar month in the [-]th year of Chongzhen, Mu Tianbo, the Duke of Qian, immediately led an army of [-] into Burma.

Two days later, Huang Fei led the navy to bombard the coast of Yangon and landed from Yangon.

Mu Tianbo, Lord of the State of Qian, led the army all the way to the south directly from Mengyang and Menggong in the northwest of Myanmar. This area is the farthest from the capital of Myanmar, Toungoo, and the power of the King of Myanmar is the weakest.

It is very difficult for the Burmese army to fortify the wall and clear the country. The problem of the Ming army's supply being cut off can be solved very well.

Li Dingguo led the Dragon Banner Army all the way south, detouring overland to the back of Laoguantun.

Attack by land and water, select the most important fortification of the Burmese army, and then go straight to Taungoo, the capital of Burma!
Zhu Youjian's strategic plan has been recognized by most generals.

Because the last time they conquered Burma, the biggest reason why the Ming army went deep alone was that Laoguantun was not captured.

In addition, on the way all the way south from Mubang, the chieftains in various places were basically restrained by the Burmese king, so it was easy for the Burmese army to implement the strategy of fortifying the walls and clearing the fields.

Once the food and supply lines were cut off, the Ming army would be in a state of isolation and helplessness.

Choosing to march from the northwest of Myanmar has avoided problems very well. The local chieftain is far away from the king of Myanmar and close to Daming, so the supply line and march are much safer.

However, an official of the Southern Army's governor's office who was familiar with Burmese affairs suggested to him that if he wanted to pacify Burma and take down the thief capital Toungoo, he must have an army of [-]!
Mu Tianbo scoffed at this, what kind of equipment did the [-] million troops of the Ming army have, once they got close to the Burmese army, they would instantly kill them.

Not to mention that there are two navies and Li Dingguo's Dragon Banner Army.

Mu Tianbo hoped that they could show their talents on the Ayeyarwady River and capture the most important water fortification of the Burmese Army, and also the largest Muzha camp in Burma—Laoguantun!
