Chapter 347 Death of Yongxuan

The Burmese army followed closely behind the fleeing Qing army, making strange screams. From time to time, the sound of bowstrings and muskets could be heard.

Every time there was gunfire and archery, the Qing army would be reduced in number.

Screams continued to sound, and the Qing army was almost on the verge of collapse.

Yongxuan's face turned pale, and he truly felt the horror between life and death.

Faced with the pressure of death, he kept whipping the whip in his hand, urging the horse under his crotch to speed up.

Even in order to let the war horse go into battle lightly and run faster, Yongxuan threw away almost everything he carried with him.

Armor, weapons, food, gold and silver...

Yongxuan even took off his clothes because he thought he was in the way. He lay naked on the horse's back and urged the horse to speed up.

Most of the personal guards around him did the same, throwing away everything they could except weapons.

However, as time passed, Yongxuan found in despair that the horse under his crotch could no longer run any longer.

At this moment, the horse under Yongxuan's crotch stepped on the air, and he was thrown away from the horse.

The pursuers were getting closer and closer to Yongxuan at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Under Yongxuan's call, hundreds of people soon gathered around him.

They have made up their minds to die!

"Brothers, prepare to meet the enemy!"

Since the Burmese people are accustomed to the environment in the mountains and forests, it is common for them to climb mountains and climb trees and rocks.

Physical fitness and endurance have declined significantly!

I won't be able to run for long before I can't run anymore.

When Haotun led the pursuit to this point, what he saw was a rather strict military formation.

Seeing this, Hao Tun immediately gave the order without any hesitation.

However, just as a group of them were busy helping Yongxuan, who had broken his leg, out of the bushes.

These people formed military formations and were ready to fight to the death with the pursuing Burmese army.

Even if they don't ride horses, they are not much slower than the Qing army on horses.

"Damn it, I never thought that these homeless dogs would have the courage to fight to the death."

He fell hard into a bush!

Seeing this, the guards around him stopped their horses one after another, then got off their horses and went to check Yongxuan's situation.

"Damn it, since the Burmese people won't give us a way to survive, we will rely on the sword in our hands to fight for a way out."

The pursuers of the Burmese army also came up in pursuit!

Yongxuan's horse is a Liaodong horse. Such horses are accustomed to the northern climate and cannot adapt to the environment after coming to the south.

"Meet the enemy, prepare to meet the enemy!"

Yongxuan's attitude was obvious. He wanted to make a last-ditch resistance.

Seeing this scene, Yongxuan knew that he could not escape, so he could only shout at the top of his lungs.

"Give me the order to launch an attack for me and kill all these Qing soldiers!"

Under Haotun's order, a large number of Burmese soldiers poured out of the surrounding dense forests and launched an attack on the remnants of the Qing army, which was besieged layer by layer.

The cry of killing resounded through the sky!

Muskets fired, bowstrings were loosed.

Facing attacks from all directions, the Qing army suffered heavy losses instantly.

The dense array faced arrow rain and musket projectiles from all directions, causing extremely heavy casualties.

In comparison, the Qing army's counterattack seemed a bit weak.

The Burmese army hid in the dense forest, and most of the Qing army's arrows and projectiles were blocked by trees and plants.

The threat to the Burmese army is not great!

For a time, the Qing army was suppressed and could not raise its head.

As time went by, the soldiers around Yongxuan continued to die in battle, the Qing army's attrition rate became faster and faster, and the casualties became more and more heavy.

Everyone can realize that the war has reached its final moments.

The morale of the Qing army almost collapsed!

Yongxuan endured the severe pain of broken leg bones, waved the sword in his hand, and roared loudly.

"Attack! Attack me!"

"I can't continue to be beaten passively any longer, so I'll launch an attack!" "Kill one to get enough, kill two to earn one!"

Yongxuan knew that according to the current situation, if he did not want to be shot to death by the Burmese army flying a kite, he could only take the initiative to launch an attack in order to break the situation.

Under Yongxuan's military order, the Qing army launched the final charge against the Burmese army.

"Kill!"

"Ten thousand victories, the Qing Dynasty will be victorious!"

"Kill the enemy and serve the country, long live the Qing Dynasty!"

"..."

Seeing this scene, Yongxuan was also excited. With the support of his own soldiers, he wanted to charge with everyone.

At the same time, the surrounding Burmese troops also launched a final charge towards Yongxuan's headquarters.

……

The war was over soon!

The last resistance of Yongxuan's troops was quickly suppressed.

Haotun rode on the back of a war horse and got the good news from the front line.

And a bloody head!

And this head belongs to Yongxuan!

Although the Burmese army once had the idea of ​​​​capturing Yongxuan alive and then using it to offer prisoners to the Ming Dynasty.

However, Yongxuan did not want to be a prisoner of war!

When the battle reached the last moment, Yongxuan ended his life with a knife.

And the personal guards around him also fought to death with all their strength!

Hao Tun looked at the ferocious head in front of him and asked with a slightly excited expression.

"Is this the head of the Tartar chief Yongxuan?"

The Burmese army general on the side heard this and said with certainty.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, there will be no mistakes."

"This head was chopped off by Mo Jiang himself."

Hearing this, Hao Tun nodded proudly and said.

"With this head, my father should be able to send a message to the Ming Dynasty..."

In this area of ​​East Asia, the name of the Great Tomorrow Kingdom still carries some weight.

Of course, the reason why Myanmar chose to be obedient and obey the Ming Dynasty's instructions was to wipe out the remnants of the Manchu Qing soldiers who had fled into its territory.

There is also the factor that Myanmar has enmity with the Manchus!

If this were not the case, it is hard to say whether Myanmar would give Daming this face.

……

The remnants of the Qing army who had fled into Burma were strangled, and the news of Yongxuan's beheading was quickly conveyed to Naypyidaw on fast horses as if it had wings.

Along with it, there is Yongxuan’s head!

King Xingu of Myanmar received the news and did not dare to delay. He immediately sent an envoy carrying Yongxuan's head to the Ming Dynasty to inform the Ming Dynasty of the matter.

After Yongxuan led his troops into Myanmar, the Ming army deployed a large number of troops on the border between China and Myanmar!

Myanmar felt a great threat.

In order to allow the Ming army to retreat as soon as possible, the Burmese side did not dare to delay this matter.

……

On the second day of April in the fifth year of Xuanwu in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army's fleet finally arrived at the Bohai Bay after more than 20 days of sailing.

According to the survey charts, it would take at most two days for the Ming fleet to reach the estuary of the Haihe River.

Then launch a landing operation!

At the same time, the civil war on the Qing army was also in full swing.

Yong Rong, Yong Yan, and Yong Lin gathered a large number of troops and launched a fierce fight in Baoding City.

Bodies in different forms of death were piled up inside and outside Baoding City!

Although Yongrong's troops had a strong city to rely on, Yongyan and Yonglin's troops still had the upper hand due to their superior military strength.

As time goes by, the balance of victory is tilting towards Yongyan and Yonglin little by little.

With no choice, Yongrong could only dispatch reinforcements from Zhending, Tianjin, Hejian, Zunhua and other places to reinforce the war in Baoding!

And this also made the Qing government's military strength in various places in Zhili extremely empty!
