It was almost October, and the sky was already high and cool north of the Yellow River, and it was a scene of desolation. Even in the south of the Yangtze River, the heat of the summer has passed and the coolness is gone. After passing the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, it is completely different from the vast Central Plains, from the ground to the ground.

Looking up, it is no longer cloudless and blue sky, but sometimes thick and sometimes faint, but it is bright and bright after the sun is shining brightly on the mountains and spreading among the lush dense forests.

The tall rouge trees are stuffy and humid, and even in such a season, you can hold a handful of water by waving your hand. No one wants to stay here for a long time, let alone people, birds are too lazy to fly in such places.

But sometimes it is like this. Even though I know I don’t want to, I still have to grit my teeth and do it for some reasons that I can’t refuse. For example, love, such as war!

The Qing-Myanmar War lasted for a year. After Liu Zao left office, Grand Secretary Shaanxi-Gansu Governor Yang Yingju moved to Yunnan as the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and took the lead. He took the lead and took heavy troops to attack. Just after April, he occupied the capital.

Although the Burmese soldiers have not achieved much success in their jurisdiction, they are still an inspiring victory at the moment of slums and destruction.

With this victory, in June, Qianlong ordered the recall of Qing soldiers in the occupied areas, and did not want to launch a large-scale military force against Myanmar. However, many local officials in Yunnan were deceived by the superficial military success, and the main war spirit was high, and they all encouraged Yang Yingju to respond.

Battle in Myanmar. At first, Yang Yingju was very calm and said to his subordinates: "I am a first-rank official, over 70 years old. There is no need to provoke border robbery for the sake of greed for merit." Deputy General Zhao Hongbang said loudly: "I hope to use hundreds of soldiers to deal with them."

, you can capture the Myanmar chief alive under your command." Chen Tingxian, the governor of Tengyue, also said: "There is no need to bother the officers and soldiers. I have collected land and trained for 4,000 to wait."

Yang Yingju was finally moved by the saying, and summoned officials from Dao, Town, Prefecture and Prefecture to discuss. Yixi Daotai, Yongshun Town General, Yongchang Prefecture and others successively stated, "The Burmese chief is powerful, and the border raid should not be opened lightly."

Especially the general of Yongshun Town, Ulden'er, made a statement to Yang Yingju seven times within one month, saying that he was extremely sad and opposed the advance to Myanmar.

However, once ** is opened, it is not easy to close. Although Yang Yingju is considered a capable official in the mainland, he does not understand the situation in Myanmar and is confused about the current situation. He even looked down on the lobbying of the main station faction such as Zhao Hongbang.

The heart of the heart believes that Myanmar is just composed of two parts: the gangster and the wooden bandits, and the internal part is disintegrating, which is not to be afraid. On the one hand, commanding his subordinates to prepare for war, and on the other hand, the three secret letters encouraged Qianlong to use troops to Myanmar to help him start.

A rare achievement in the world, hoping to draw the Lingyan Pavilion.

The secret statement is clear, and it is said that Myanmar has repeatedly invaded the chieftain's borders. If it is not handled at the right time, I am afraid that the chieftain's area will be difficult to be peaceful in the future. I have secretly sent trustworthy subordinates to lurk in Myanmar, making its place wide and narrow, and the roads are barren.

The secretly painted the picture and presented it to the imperial examination soon. Other things are now being arranged in secret. Now the people of Myanmar are disintegrated, and the chieftains have long disintegrated, and people are eager to return, hoping that the divine weapons of the Celestial Dynasty will be surrendered early. In addition,

Mubang chieftain had already killed the Burmese king who was appointed to monitor and was willing to surrender.

He also reported to him about future military arrangements, emphasizing that he would never dare to be greedy for merit and make progress. He followed Liu Zao's footsteps and did not dare to act rashly or miss the opportunity to fight.

Emperor Qianlong was a little happy with merits. At the beginning, he felt that the use of troops was too far away. He was hesitant about the labor force and labor to waste wages from a large-scale attack on Myanmar. He could not resist Yang Yingju wrote many letters, and he also felt that Yang Yingju had "has been through the border for a long time and was known as the experience."

We will not act rashly when preparing for everything," and finally listened to his words and agreed to launch a large-scale war in Myanmar.

This time, the army was sent out, and the internal situation of Myanmar at that time, and the situation of fighting in Siam, the imperial court, including Heshen, who traveled through time in later generations, were all ignorant of relying on the Yunnan region.

More than 10,000 green camp soldiers could conquer Myanmar. It was really naive and powerful. Heshen roughly knew the results of the battle. However, firstly, he was young and slight, and no one listened to him when he said it. Secondly, if it weren't for Yang Yingju to Gao Heng and Wu Mi.

As a matchmaker, he would not have turned against Gao Jia. Based on this, he had a little guess on the outcome of the battle with Fu Heng and the fifth prince Hongzhou. Even if both of them were not concerned about it, he didn't say much.

In July, the Burmese Manmututus went to Awa, Myanmar country (now Mandalay, Myanmar) to see the Burmese king not coming back. His mother, wife, and younger brother were intimidated by the Qing Dynasty and surrendered. Deputy General Zhao Hongbang led his troops to five.

After a lot of iron walls, he easily took down the important town of Xinjie (Bamo, Myanmar) in the area under the jurisdiction of Manmu Tusi. However, Manmu Tusi returned from Awa and saw that his relatives surrendered, he had no choice but to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. Not long after, he was not long.

The Mubang chieftain also publicly announced that it was attached. For a time, good news spread frequently, and Yang Yingju's popularity in the court was incredible.

On September 12, Yang Yingju went to Yongchang and began his march into Myanmar under the pretext of accepting the surrender of Mubang Tusi. At this time, Zhao Hongbang had already won the Xinjie.

Xinjie, located at the mouth of the Nanda Jin River (Irrawaddy River), was the location of the Qing-Myanmar mutual market at that time. It was downstream and could reach Awa in five or six days. Wang Mangji, a Myanmar, felt that he knew the news and knew the situation was serious, so he mobilized several times.

Ten thousand troops were divided into four groups, from Manmu, Mengmi, Mengqi, and Mengqi, Mubang, and rolled around the river and occupied Mubang.

On the 20th, the Myanmar army went up the river and headed straight to Xinjie. "Sails and mounds connected, and suddenly flocked to thousands of ants, and landed on the shore to attack the fence." At that time, the situation was already extremely critical, but Yang Yingju did not see the situation clearly.

Only Liu Tianyou, the capital of Yongshun Town, and Sima Gongyuan, the capital of Tengyue Town, led 400 Green Camp troops to aid Zhao Hongbang. Although they arrived at Xinjie before the arrival of the Burmese army, their troops were still less than a thousand. The forces of the two sides were very different, and the Qing soldiers insisted on it.

After two days and one night, the reinforcements were not arrived, and finally they were out of support. Liu Tianyou died in battle. Zhao Hongbang led the remaining troops to break through the path and retreat into the Iron Bi Pass. Manmu chieftain also led his troops to retreat to Yunnan. The Burmese soldiers were in great momentum.

Chase me desperately.

The news reached Yongchang, Yang Yingju was shocked and had a sputum attack. The sick general Urden'er stationed troops in Wanding to attack Mubang. General Zhu Lun sent troops from Tiebi Pass to recover Xinjie. Admiral Li Shisheng Zhu Cha

The fir cage was dispatched in the middle. Zhu Lun fought fiercely with the Myanmar soldiers outside the iron retreat for several days, and they had a victory or defeat. Ulden'er failed to work. However, the Myanmar side successively attacked the Tongbi Pass, entered Wanren Pass, and burned the fire.

He plundered Zhanda, retreated, and retreated to Longchuan, Mengmao, and killed the Qing army's guerrillas Ma Chenglong, Bandi, Mao Dajing, Dusi Xu Bin, and the guard Gao Qian. The Qing army was defeated.

Yongchang, the Gorshhas standing at the gate, did not feel depressed because of the defeat of the Qing army, but instead raised their chests and belly, and their gazes were scandal from time to time, full of vigilance.

At noon, two red-topped officials went to the gate of the governor's headquarters to get off the horse and fall down. One of them was wearing a civil servant ascendant. He was in his forties, with a white face and a long beard. He smiled before he could speak.

, it seems to be a handsome talent, which is the governor of Yunnan Tang Pin. The other person is about fifty years old, wearing a black armor and a white robe with a single-eyed peacock feather dragged behind the top, trembling and dazzling. This person is short and lonely

The face was pale and thin, a pair of bird's nests sank slightly, the steep face was cold and cold, under the two thick and black broom eyebrows, the pupils were pitch black and shining, occasionally the eye waves rolled and flashed, the light flashed, but it flashed

Died.

The two men bowed each other in front of the gate and said to each other, "Master Tang," and "Li Junmen". They had seen the gift and came into the gate with the respectful gift from Goshha at the gate.

This time it was half a day. When the Li army gate left the gate, it was already sunset. His face was gloomy. He did not wait for the governor Tang Pin, who came with him, but got on his horse alone, among dozens of personal soldiers.

Surrounded by, he rode his horse away from the gate.

This person was Admiral Li Shisheng. He was born in the 51st year of Kangxi. He was from Henan. He practiced martial arts since childhood and had a great appetite. He could use four stone hard bows, had great arm strength, and was skilled in martial arts. He even used swords and weapons.

Specially made, most people can't afford it.

"Li Junmen, you look bad, but what happened?" As he walked out of the city, a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes and big eyes in personal soldiers approached Li Shisheng and asked.

Li Shisheng was free from his horse. He was originally in deep thought, but was suddenly interrupted by the boy. He was stunned. Seeing that he had left the Yongchang City Gate, he frowned, as if he was going to make some major decision. After a long time, he suddenly rushed towards other personal soldiers.

Wave your hand and wait until there is no one around, then slowly speaks to the young man:

"How long have you been with me?"

The young man was stunned and smiled, "My lord is confused. Since he passed the pen-type examination at the beginning of the year and was recommended to the military gate by Agui's military gate, he has been valued by the military gate and accepted it as a personal guard. It has been less than half a year since then.

!”

"Yes, it's only half a year!" Li Shisheng's pale face was coated with a faint golden color under the afterglow of the sunset. He suddenly sighed, opened his eyes wide open, staring at the boy like a falcon, and asked word by word

He said: "Now I am about to face a disaster, are you willing to help me?"

"What?" The boy was stunned, his slightly tender face changed color and almost fell off his horse in shock. He tried hard to take a few deep breaths of humid air, which made his heart slowly calm down.

After a while, he said firmly: "The military service treats me like a nobleman. Although I don't know what the military service is worried about now, as long as the military service orders, the last general will die even if he dies!"

"Even if you are facing the risk of desertion on your back, if you fail to succeed, your family will be shamed. Do you want to?" Li Shisheng's eyes were as bright as stars, staring at the boy without blinking.

The boy was stunned again, after a long time, he finally looked up bravely, his eyes met Li Shisheng's eyes, and he didn't say anything, but nodded firmly.

"Okay!" Li Shisheng looked overjoyed, and rode his horse close to the boy, patted him hard on his shoulder, "I, Li Shisheng, did not read you wrong. From now on, my Li family will be handed to your hands...
