Daming: If I find a great-grandson, I will teach an emperor through the ages

Chapter 174 The Ming Dynasty was great, Burma was destroyed!
However, Cao Wei and others who destroyed Luchuan were not in a hurry to take the next step.

One hundred thousand troops were temporarily resting in Luchuan for half a month. On the other hand, Mu Chun transferred manpower from Yunnan to take over Luchuan in a real sense.

When Zhu Zhen heard about this, he also hurriedly sent many people to help, and also sent a large amount of grain and grass to supplement the military supplies.

Of course, this is just a stopgap measure.

When Lan Yu or Cao Wei returns to Yingtian and reports the matter, Zhu Yuanzhang and the ministers of the DPRK will come up with a safe way to manage Luchuan.

A few days later, after Vietnam, Myanmar and other countries had had enough of being on tenterhooks, Cao Wei had people release the news again:
The Ming Dynasty had no intention of causing more killings, and it was only a last resort to destroy Luchuan in the First World War, because Luchuan and Burma planned to join forces to fight against the Ming Dynasty. If Luchuan was not eliminated, it would lose the prestige of the Ming Dynasty.

Other countries basically did not participate in this action against the Ming Dynasty. Even if they dispatched a small amount of troops, as long as they did not cause losses to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty could forget about it.

As long as they are willing to surrender obediently and hand over their local political power to the Ming Dynasty, Cao Wei will not harm them.

As soon as this news came out, the southern countries were once again in turmoil.

Now there are only two ways before them.

Either the whole country surrenders and submits to the Ming Dynasty, or they die!

Cao Wei made it very clear that except for Burma and Luchuan, which mobilized large-scale forces to fight against the Ming Dynasty, the other countries only sent tens of thousands of troops. As long as no losses were caused to the Ming army, the Ming Dynasty could forget about it.

What this means is that the mistakes you have made are all small, and people all make mistakes. We, the Ming Dynasty, are magnanimous, and as long as you are willing to admit your mistakes obediently, we will not care.

But the way to admit his mistake is to surrender the whole country and submit to the Ming Dynasty.

For those kings of a country, this undoubtedly makes them extremely painful and difficult to make a choice.

On the one hand, it is the supreme power in one's own country, and on the other hand, it is one's own wealth and life.

No matter which point it is, it is difficult to give up.

For some people, power is even more important than life.

But obviously Hong Shun is not among them.

After witnessing the terrifying power of the Ming Dynasty's firearms and losing a leg, Hong Shun's fear of the Ming Dynasty was engraved in his bones.

In Hong Shun's mind at this time, what does the position of a mere Vietnamese Xuanwei Department mean?
Your own life is the most important!
Surrendering to the Ming Dynasty can save one's life. If you don't surrender, you can only wait for the Ming army to come with muskets and artillery.

The memory of losing his left leg on the Luchuan battlefield often comes to Hong Shun's mind.

He didn't want to experience that kind of pain again.

On the fifth day after Cao Wei released the news, Hong Shun took his family directly into Luchuan and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.

The royal city of Luchuan has been destroyed, and the army led by Cao Wei Lanyu is stationed near the royal city.

Hong Shun rushed to the military camp with his family and was quickly led to Cao Wei and others.

As soon as he saw Lan Yu, the limping Hong Shun dropped the crutch in his hand and knelt down in front of Lan Yu with a pop, bursting into tears.

"General Lan, I surrender!"

"I am willing to submit to the Ming Dynasty and hand over the entire Vietnam!"

"I hope General Lan will not remember the villain's fault and spare my family because I didn't send out too many troops to help Bu Cilang and Silunfa before."

After saying that, Hong Shun banged his head on the ground several times.

Naturally, Lan Yu would not have much compassion for prisoners of Hong Shun's rank.

In any case, Hong Shun had sent troops to assist Bu Cilang and Silunfa. Now that Ming Dynasty was willing to give them a chance and spare his life, it was magnanimous enough.

"Okay, get up." Cao Wei said calmly.

Hong Shun raised his head and glanced at Cao Wei, feeling a little surprised.

Among everyone present, Mu Chun was the most familiar person, and he had heard of Lan Yu's reputation more than once. However, this young man Hong Shun really had no impression of him, and he was not sure whether what Cao Wei said would work.

Then Hong Shun glanced at the blue jade again.

"Look at what I do, just get up when Grand Master Cao tells me to do it." Lan Yu said.

Master...

Hong Shun immediately realized that the young man in front of him might have a higher status in the Ming Dynasty than Lan Yu!
"Hong Shun has met Grand Master Cao and thanked Grand Master Cao!"

Picking up the crutches beside him, Hong Shun stood up with support.

Cao Wei looked him up and down, and then said: "We will never break our promise. Since you are willing to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, it is not a big deal to spare your life."

"It's just that you have helped the Burmese Lucchuan Coalition Army after all. If you want to surrender to the Ming Dynasty and save your life, you have to write a surrender letter. Do you understand?"

Hong Shun nodded repeatedly. Cao Wei asked him to write a letter of surrender, just to use him to raise the status of Ming Dynasty and make Ming Dynasty more proud.

And going through official channels also seems more formal.

Hong Shun is also a good person and knows Cao Wei's intentions.

He would have nothing to lose by doing this, it would just bring him more face.

But he brought his whole family and surrendered. It didn't matter what he was embarrassed about, as long as he could save his life.

"I understand, I understand, I understand. Is there a pen and paper here? I will write a letter of surrender right now."

Cao Wei turned to the soldiers and ordered, "Get paper and pen."

After a while, the soldiers got paper and pen, and Hong Shun consciously wrote a letter of surrender without anyone urging him to do so.

In his words, he placed his status very low, talking about the Ming Dynasty, or voluntarily submitted to the Ming Dynasty because of his admiration for the Ming Dynasty.

Especially the sentence "I would rather be a courtier in heaven than the king of Vietnam." Cao Wei was very satisfied after reading it.

"Yes, I will accept your surrender letter for the time being. After I return to Yingtian, I will tell His Majesty that I can give you an official position, but you will have to stay away from Vietnam."

When Hong Shun heard this, he was overjoyed!
He originally thought that surrendering to Ming would save his life at most, and he might also be jailed, but he didn't expect that Ming would treat him so favorably.

The reason why Cao Wei wanted to treat him preferentially was just to show off to other countries.

Hong Shun surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. You see, he lived very well. Not only did he not lose his life, he was able to find a job in the Ming Dynasty.

Although in another sense, this job meant that Hong Shun was placed under house arrest and perhaps under surveillance, he was still an official and would not suffer.

As long as Hong Shun is honest enough, he can live peacefully with his family until the day he dies of old age.

If you don’t want to take advantage of Ming Dynasty’s artillery, you can also write a letter of surrender. The benefits will be great!
Compared with conquering other countries without spending a single soldier, it is more cost-effective not to waste a single shell and bullet!
really,

After the news of Hong Shun's surrender to the Ming Dynasty came out, all countries were shocked!Che, Laos and other countries began to send envoys to Luchuan for peace talks with Cao Wei.

They had also sent troops to assist Bu Cilang, and it was certain that they would be liquidated by the Ming Dynasty. Now that they did not want to die, they had only one way to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

But before sending the letter of surrender, they also wanted to secure enough benefits for themselves, such as their status in the Ming Dynasty after surrender...

During this period of time, the one who suffered the most was undoubtedly Bu Cilang.

When he first heard that the Ming Dynasty was going to send troops to conquer Burma, Bu Cilang scoffed.

There are many countries to the west and south of the Yunnan border in the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming Dynasty wants to conquer Burma, the other countries will inevitably be affected, and they will not sit idly by.

Although the Ming Dynasty was powerful, it was impossible to compete with so many countries at the same time.

Judging from the previous strength of Ming Dynasty, it took more than 20 years to completely destroy Beiyuan.

If Burma, Luchuan and other countries can unite, even if Ming Dynasty has the power to fight, it is absolutely impossible to completely destroy them all. At most, it will be a lose-lose situation, and the casualties on its own side may be heavier.

But Bu Cilang never expected that he was wrong!How wrong!

He seriously underestimated Ming's military power!
I don’t know when, the Ming Dynasty actually developed a repeating musket with a range of 60 meters!
There is also the artillery that is as powerful as divine punishment, so terrifying!
The Ming Dynasty directly defeated their combined army of 30 with only [-] troops!
Although 30 is not the entire strength of their coalition forces, and there are still 20 troops placed in the rear for support, it is obviously not necessary.

Don't say 20, any more 20 will be in vain!

Unless Bu Cilang can entangle an army of millions, relying solely on human lives to fill it will consume all the ammunition of the Guangming Army.

But countries like Myanmar are small countries. How can they provide an army of millions?

Bu Cilang cursed in his heart more than once.

The Ming Dynasty had such powerful guns and artillery, why didn't they take them out before?
Why not use it when playing Bei Yuan?

As a result, he was not aware of it at all.

If he had known that the Ming army was so powerful, and given Bu Cilang ten more courage, he would not have dared to invade the Yunnan border again.

Now, their situation in Myanmar is the most severe.

It was Burma who frequently sent people to Yunnan to harass and plunder, and it was Bu Cilang who entangled the surrounding countries to fight against the Ming Dynasty.

Ming Dynasty can let go of Vietnam, can let go of Laos, can let go of the car, but it is impossible to let him go, but it is impossible to let go of Burma!

If he hadn't known this, Bu Cilang would have written a letter of surrender to the Ming Dynasty long ago. He didn't want to die, and he didn't want to be like Silunfa, "whereabouts unknown" in the artillery fire of the Ming army.

When the countries were discussing, Bu Cilang once said, "What's the point of being a dog under someone else's seat?"

But now, Bu Cilang has no chance to be the dog under the throne of Ming Dynasty.

Now the other countries are in peace talks with the Ming army, and the letters of surrender must have been written early. Only he, Bu Cilang, can only worry in the capital of Myanmar.

At this time, no one dared to be his ally, let alone fight against Ming Dynasty. Anyone with a normal mind would simply draw a clear line with Bu Cilang and turn around to please Ming Dynasty.

the other side,
Regarding the "peace negotiation" conditions of the various countries, Cao Wei did not agree to any of them, and directly made his attitude clear:

"If you want to surrender, please hurry up and send me the letter of surrender. You don't want my mother-in-law. You are not qualified to raise conditions. Sparing your life is already an extra mercy. Don't even think about it! After surrendering to the Ming Dynasty, I will take whatever is given to you, and I will not give you anything." Don't open your mouth..."

It was such a tough attitude that made Laos and other countries even more frightened. After some weighing, they finally sent the letter of surrender, for fear that the delay would be too long and Cao Wei would be unhappy.

In more than a month, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Cheche, and Babai all sent their letters of surrender. Even Siam and Manchuria consciously sent letters of surrender.

Since Siam and Manchuria have always maintained good relations with the Ming Dynasty, the two countries did not get involved this time.

Cao Wei originally didn't want to take action against them, but the other party took the initiative to send a letter of surrender, which surprised Cao Wei and Lan Yu.

Siam and Manchuria may have seen the situation clearly. The Ming Dynasty was so powerful that it was only a matter of time before they surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.

Rather than being forced to surrender, it is better to take the initiative to surrender, which can also increase some favorability.

Naturally, Cao Wei and Lan Yu didn't let go of this big bargain they got for nothing, and sent a letter back to the two countries, so that they didn't have to worry about what happened after they surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and they would definitely be given the highest treatment from both countries...

in this way,

The entire continent north of the Strait of Malacca, except Myanmar further to the west, has nominally belonged to the Ming Dynasty.

Next, it’s time to settle accounts with Myanmar, the culprit of all this!
After resting in Luchuan for nearly two months, the Ming army had been fully replenished, and even another batch of weapons and ammunition was sent from Yingtian.

The Ming Dynasty's [-]-strong army was already full of energy and was ready to bombard the enemy at any time!

Following Lan Yu's order, the soldiers packed up their gear and set off again towards the west, pointing their swords at Burma!
At this time, Bu Cilang has become an ant on the hot pot, and the people throughout Myanmar are also in fear all day long.

After hearing the news that the Ming army was coming to conquer, Burmese people began to flee from Burma.

There is no way, whether it is national power or military strength, Burma and Ming Dynasty are not at the same level. The outcome of the upcoming war is obvious. Burma will undoubtedly lose. The people know that they will die. If they don't escape, why don't they wait to be buried with Bu Cilang?

Although Bu Cilang sent troops to guard the national border, it could not stop thousands of people from fleeing. Even some of Bu Cilang's troops began to desert, and Bu Cilang gradually became the polished commander...

Cao Wei and Lan Yumuchun led the army all the way towards Myanmar, and met some fleeing Burmese people on the way.

However, Cao Wei and others were not murderers, and they did not kill all these innocent people. These people had nothing to do with Bu Cilang.

Cao Wei ordered the army to interrogate these Burmese people, and only confirmed that Bu Cilang had not escaped among them, and then let them leave.

Approaching the royal capital of Myanmar all the way, Bu Cilang only had the last [-] soldiers left to defend the city.

Bu Cilang looked at the mighty [-] troops under the city and the adjusted angle of the divine thunder cannon, and his throat felt tight and dry unconsciously.

He knew that his death was coming...

If he could be given another chance, he would never provoke Daming again and would honestly be his own Burmese Propaganda Secretary.

But there is no regret medicine in the world, and there is no second chance for Bu Cilang...

Under the shadow of death, Bu Cilang still couldn't help but beg for mercy.

He trembled and shouted towards the city:
"General Lan, now that I know my mistake, can you spare my life? I don't ask for anything else!"

"As long as...as long as General Lan can spare my life, I am willing to work...as a cow or a horse for General Lan..."

Under his pleading eyes, Lan Yu said nothing, only waved her hand and said,
"ignition……"

As the fuse ignited, it burned out.

"Oh!"

The mighty thunderbolt sounded, and Myanmar was removed from the world.
