Chapter 441 Myanmar
"I know. When my grandfather was alive, we often told us that we were subjects of the Ming Dynasty. Later, the Burmese people despicable and shamelessly tied up Yongli to Wu Sangui, which made the Ming Dynasty perish. Grandpa and the others did not want to surrender to Myanmar because they knew that we were Han people and did not want others to call us Burmese in the future." Yang Jingzong recalled the story.
"Later, my grandfather and the others fought with the Qing Dynasty for a long time, and gradually felt that the Ming Dynasty had no hope of restoring the country, so they surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. The reason why they chose to surrender to the Qing Dynasty instead of Myanmar was because they could still retain their identity as a Han person."
Seeing that Yang Jingzong had not forgotten these, Yang Weixing nodded and recognized him in a rare manner.
"Since you know everything, you still say you want to surrender to Myanmar?" Yang Weixing asked.
"Dad, am I angry! By the way, since we can't vote for Myanmar or the Qing Dynasty, why do we have to vote for the dynasty? I don't know where it is?" Yang Jingzong asked.
"It, I heard that it now occupies half of the Qing Dynasty. From Guangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Henan, and south of Jiangsu, they are all their land." Yang Weixing said as if he recalled the past.
When he was young, Yang Weixing also went out to travel the outside world with the support of his father. He still remembers that although the prosperity of those places was much worse than what his father said, it was also an existence that was incomparable to his mountain villages and forests.
"Dad, I told me that I knew about those places except Guangxi, but I didn't know anything else. So where are they? Are they far away from us?" Yang Jingzong was still confused and asked.
"You haven't learned it, and it's normal not to understand it. Our village is poor and simple, and there is no map. It's hard for you to understand it just by telling you this way. You just need to know that they are the most prosperous place today. Not only did the Yanchao capture the place, they also fought the Qing Dynasty and had to sign the default agreement with them. Then do you think they are powerful?" Yang Weixing asked back.
"They are indeed very strong." As long as Yang Jingzong is not stupid enough, he can understand the meaning of what Yang Weixing said.
"Yeah." Yang Weixing responded heavily.
Once upon a time, Yang Weixing also thought of developing a corner of the land into the lord of the side. But reality gave him a blowjob.
A place with poor mountains and rivers does not have the means of reaching the sky and the earth. It is really a matter of a long and lasting day to develop. Especially when experiencing the war with Myanmar recently, Yang Weixing felt a little overwhelmed, let alone the Qing Dynasty, which was a giant.
So the more you understand Zhang Rui's affairs, the more Yang Weixing felt that his ability was strong.
"You go and pack up your things later, and then take some people to protect the people in the city to Guangxi to hide from the war. The storm has arranged land for us in Guangxi." Yang Weixing looked at Yang Jingzong and ordered.
"Dad, let others take care of you! I'll stay and fight with you." Yang Jingzong replied.
"Silly boy, you're the only one left here? I asked you to lead people to make no worries among the people below. Besides, we are no longer fighting ourselves," said Yang Weixing.
"Can…"
Seeing that Yang Jingzong was still hesitant, Yang Weixing continued, "After you take people to settle down, you will go to Guangdong, especially Guangzhou to see how this dynasty is. Do you understand?"
"Okay, I understand." Yang Jingzong agreed no longer hesitated.
...
June of the second year of Tianze (the 23rd year of Qianlong)
The Qing Dynasty and Myanmar secretly signed an agreement, and Myanmar sought peace and tribute. The Qing court of the Sect Master was very satisfied with Myanmar's attitude of realizing his mistakes. He killed the chieftain who had "provoked trouble" and decided to "give" land in the Keganshan area of Yunnan, Myanmar, and give back 50,000 taels of silver. The two sides reached a peace talks on this and no longer violated them.
The Qing and Myanmar sides were very satisfied with this result.
Without Myanmar's obstacles, the Qing Dynasty could devote more energy to the war to pacify Sichuan. As for the Yunnan people killed by Myanmar, most of them are Burmese now. What's the matter with the Qing court?
Myanmar was originally at the end of its strength, and it was not easy to get closer to Yunnan. In addition, the Nanzhang rebellion and the Siam war had been decided, and now Myanmar urgently needs troops to return to aid. Yong Jiya thought this result was the best.
As for the newly acquired land, if there were no regular Qing army, the people above were just Qing people to them. What if there were many killings?
Poor, those Yunnan people abandoned by the Qing Dynasty, who were useless to ask for help but cannot be used to the land, in order not to be slaved by Myanmar, they could only carry their families to Yunnan or Guangxi borders with their families.
July of the second year of Tianze (the 23rd year of Qianlong)
The dynasty sent an envoy from Myanmar and ordered Myanmar to immediately withdraw from Yunnan's land, kill a group of war criminals, and compensate the total amount of war 1 million taels of silver.
"Is that thief leader who is ill and goes to the doctor if he is sick? He actually wants to come to me to commit suicide?" Yong Jiya, who heard the news, felt as if he was amused and laughed at the ministers in front of him.
"Haha... he was just in a mess. I really couldn't figure out that the Qing Dynasty and Siam would be defeated by such a brainless child." Burmese general Gong Naiya replied in response.
At this moment, the whole country of Myanmar, which defeated the Qing Dynasty, was in a state of high spirits. In their opinion, Zhang Rui did not dare to come to Myanmar to cause trouble if he had no brain problems, but he just wanted to enjoy his mouth and gain a reputation in the world.
But is Myanmar so easy to exploit?
"Gongmai, please take people to chop the thieves, and put them all in dog cages and send them back to them." Yong Jiya decided to deal with the envoys of the Qing Dynasty in the way of dealing with the envoys of the Qing Dynasty.
"Yes, the king, let's do it all." Gong Mai, the general named by Yong Jiya, immediately stepped out and replied.
"Well..." Yong Jiya nodded lightly indifferently, as if he was dealing with a trivial matter.
And just as Gongmai was about to turn around and leave, he heard a low voice from an old man: "General Gongmai wait a moment. King, I have something to say, I don't know if I should say it."
"Mo Kebo, you are my old minister, what else can you say?" Yong Jiya said kindly at the person who spoke.
"I thank the king for his trust. The king should know that the Siam King Wu Lunshi has abdicated to Wenlin!" Mo Kebo said after bowing to Yong Jiya.
"I just received the latest information yesterday, and there is something happening. I am now preparing to send troops to meet the Wenlin boy. After all, Siam is the land we really need in Myanmar." Yong Jiya replied without hesitation.
