Chapter 869 865 [Brother kills brother]

Chapter 869 865 [Brother kills brother]

Hundreds of years later, the number of Xishuangbanna in Xishuangbanna was less than Thirteen Banna.

The two Bannas of Mengwu and Ude were ceded to French Vietnam by the Qing Dynasty, with an area of ​​about 3,000 square kilometers.

The ceding of land is not outrageous. What is truly outrageous is the reason why the Qing Dynasty ceded land.

China's defeat in the Sino-Japanese War of 1891-1899 made the Japanese lion speak loudly. The interests of Russia, France and Germany were harmed, so they took the initiative to mediate. After the mediation of the three countries, they took the opportunity to ask for compensation. What France asked for was the land of Yunnan.

Moreover, the request was successful.

In addition to Mengwu and Ude, the lands ceded to Vietnam at that time also included Huabang, Hadang, Helian, Mengmeng, Boten, Mobie, Moxing, and Manme.

Of course, don’t criticize Vietnam.

Because it was ceded to French Vietnam, French Vietnam is not a national concept, but a geopolitical concept. After World War II, the two Bannas of Meng Ou and Oud became the boundaries of Laos, located in the northern part of Phongsaly Province in Laos.

The east-line troops of the North Road Datong Army headed to Xishuangbanna were not regular divisions, but a newly formed Yunnan temporary reorganized division composed of 12,000 local patrol troops.

The teacher is Lu Liangqi, the deputy teacher is Dao Kangmu, and the mission director is Guo Kun.

Lu Liangqi was injured in his arm and could not exert much strength, so he became a patrol general. About a quarter of the soldiers under his command were veterans and disabled people who had returned to work. Of course, these people were definitely not brought.

Most of the patrol soldiers and junior sergeants who went out to fight this time were from peasant soldiers. There were only middle- and high-ranking generals who were more or less disabled.

When the troops arrived in Chesi, they were warmly welcomed by the local chieftains. They were fed up with the looting and had been requesting the Nanjing court to send troops every year. Now the Datong Army finally came.

When they arrived at Xiaomengyang (Jinghong), the regent leader Dao Muqin came out to greet him with his young chieftain nephew.

"The last general Dao Mu prays, bow to the great general of the heaven!" Dao Mu prays on the ground and kneels down.

Lu Liangqi said: "Get up."

Deputy division commander Dao Kangmu translated: "Teacher, please stand up."

Dao Mu prayed to express his gratitude and stood up, and asked in surprise: "Can the general speak Dai?"

Dao Kangmu said expressionlessly: "I am also a Dai."

This appointment was intentional, otherwise with Toyasu's qualifications, he would have been able to serve as temporary deputy brigade commander at most.

The effect was remarkable. As the army marched all the way, because of Dao Kangmu's identity as a Dai, the chieftains in the car all trusted him more.

Lu Liangqi asked: "Are your troops ready?"

Dao Mu prayed quickly and replied: "The troops have been gathered, and the food has been prepared since last year."

"The army is resting outside the city and will set off early tomorrow morning." Lu Liangqi said.

Dao Mu prayed and invited: "Generals, please go to the city to rest first. The last general has prepared wine and food."

Lu Liangqi waved his hand: "No need. During the battle, you are not allowed to drink. I will rest outside the city."

Dao Muzhu was stunned, thinking that he had offended the other party in some way.

Dao Kangmu explained: "The Celestial Army has strict discipline, and it is the same wherever they go."

"I see." Dao Muqiu was no longer nervous, and at the same time he admired the rules of the Datong Army.

The next day, a total of more than 30,000 Datong patrol soldiers and chieftain soldiers in carriages headed south.

The target they wanted to attack was Chief Meng Gen.

Chieftain Menggen had already surrendered to Burma and had invaded Chesi many times. Those who jumped the most were those guys.

When they were about to march to the occupied Mengban, the vanguard sent someone back to report: "Commander Lu and Chief Meng Gen's soldiers found out about our attack and took the initiative to withdraw from Mengban and retreated to the southwest of Daluo."

Come on, before the battle even started, Chief Meng Gen spit out the occupied territory.

Of course, it is also possible to lure the enemy deeper.

The inspection division continued to move south, stopped in Daluo for two days for repairs, and then continued to send the vanguard troops south.

A few days later, Dao Yinkang, the chieftain of Meng Gen, sent an envoy to ask for China's forgiveness and his willingness to submit to China from now on. He also sent his eldest son to Nanjing as a hostage.

"General, you can't believe this man's nonsense," Dao Muqin objected quickly, "Chief Meng Gen has always been sinister. Today he will surrender and he will be judged again tomorrow. Once the imperial army leaves, Meng Gen's soldiers will come and occupy the car."

Lu Liangqi asked the envoy: "But it's like this?"

Messenger Meng Gen said: "My lord is sincerely surrendering and will never rebel again or invade Chesi again."

Lu Liangqi said: "How can I believe the empty talk? If Dao Yinkang is really loyal to the court, he will come to see me in person and tell me this face to face!"

Immediately, the messenger was driven away, and the inspector continued to set off.

The straight-line distance between Daluo and Jingdong, the seat of Menggensi, is less than 400 miles, and there are large river valleys along the way for marching.

The 3,000 vanguard troops of the Inspection Department have begun bombarding Guancheng, which is only 200 miles away from Jingdong.

"How to do how to do?"

Jingdong, Chieftain's Mansion, Dao was walking around anxiously because of his health.

Although this guy has only succeeded to the throne for four years, he is almost 50 years old, and both his grandfather and father have lived longer.

The eldest son Dao'ao said: "Father, there are several great passes in the northeast that cannot be penetrated by the Chinese army. My father cannot go there in person to ask for surrender. Once he goes there, he will definitely be killed by them!"

"You know what the heck, of course I'm not afraid of the northeast, I'm afraid that the enemy will come from the northwest (Mengliansi)!" Dao Yinkang said.

Dao'ao said: "My mother is from Menglian. We have been married to Menglian for generations. Menglian chieftain will not help the enemy."

Dao Yinkang said: "In order to fight for power, Chief Menglian killed his brothers and uncles and nephews. They even killed their own people. How could they care about my in-laws? Don't look at Menglian's usual submission to Myanmar. Once the Chinese army arrives,

, the Menglian soldiers will surrender soon!"

Chieftain Meng Lian, the Chinese army has indeed attacked, and it is a regular division led by Liu Xinyu!

A regular division will move to Meng Lian Division in the northwest, and an inspection division will move to Che Division in the northeast. They are about to attack Jingdong in a pincer-shaped offensive.

Chieftain Menglian can surrender because there has been civil strife and the territory of the new Datong Dynasty has not been invaded.

The chieftain in the car could also surrender because he had already requested the Emperor of Datong to grant him the title.

Only Chief Meng Gen could not surrender. Even if he surrendered, he would not dare to let the Datong army come in. Because in the past few years, they have been the most violent, going to Chesi to plunder every year, and even occupying Chesi.

The Nanjing imperial court did not listen at all to the reprimands and envoys of the Nanjing imperial court.

"kill!"

While the father and son were talking, outside the chieftain's house, there was a sudden loud shout of murder.

Dao'ao was surprised and said: "The enemy came so fast?"

Dao Yinkang reacted very quickly: "It's not an enemy, it's a traitor. Follow me to defend the chieftain's mansion!"

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the southwestern chieftains often rebelled, and there were generally three ways to resolve them.

First, if the commotion is not big, please pay compensation and apologize.

Second, if the trouble is not too big or too small, kill the chieftain, pay compensation and plead guilty, and the descendants will inherit the position of chieftain.

Third, if the commotion is too big, the chieftain's family will all die. Either they will directly return to their native land, or they will divide the chieftain's territory.

Chieftain Meng Gen is a man who makes troubles that are not too big or too small. This situation is easy to solve. The chieftains have long formed a tradition. Some brothers kill their elder brothers, some sons kill their fathers, and some mothers kill their sons. Anyway, as long as the chieftain himself is killed

, you can keep your family and territory.

At this moment, it is the younger brother who kills the older brother.

Dao Yinkang's younger brother Dao Mengsai took advantage of the chieftain's main force to be transferred to the front line, and led soldiers from various villages under his jurisdiction to attack the chieftain's mansion.

As long as his chieftain brother is killed, Meng Gensi can be forgiven by the court, and Dao Mengsai can take the opportunity to rise to power - at least, that was the case during the Ming Dynasty. They were very familiar with this trick.

Dao Yinkang urgently put on his armor and took his son out to defend. Dao Mengsai had already breached the gate of the Tusi Mansion.

The two armies fought across the inner gate, with arrows flying everywhere.

Dao Mengsai was still there to persuade him to surrender: "Everyone inside listened. Dao Yinkang did not show mercy to the people and conquered the Northeast for years. Now he has offended the Chinese emperor and the Chinese army has arrived outside the Pass. If Dao Yinkang does not die, we will all be implicated!"

"

Dao Yinkang was furious when he heard this. He climbed up the wall and reprimanded: "Every time the goods are robbed, you also have a share. Every time you send troops, you also send soldiers. How can you put all the blame on me?"

"You are the chieftain, you are the leader, of course it is your fault!"

Dao Mengsai continued to shout to the defenders: "Quickly put down your weapons and arrest Dao Yinkang. I promise not to kill you! If you wait for the Chinese army to come, you will all die without any body parts!"

"Shoot this bastard!" Dao Yinkang roared.

The two sides continued to fight, and the defenders gradually became unable to hold on due to their small number of soldiers.

The main force of Dao Yinkang has been sent to the northeastern border, leaving only the standing guards of the Tusi Mansion. The main force of Dao Mengsai was sent to the northwest border, and came back to attack the Tusi Mansion on the way. The force was more than ten times that of the Tusi Mansion.

"boom!"

The inner door of the Tusi Mansion was knocked open by a log.

Dao Mengsai took his son Dao Shanpi and charged in with his troops. Dao Yinkang, Dao Ao and his son retreated steadily.

Dao Ao was the first to be besieged and died. Dao Yinkang watched his son fall down with injuries all over his body. He pointed at his brother and said: "If you kill me today, you will be killed by the enemy tomorrow. There will be no good end for you."

!”

Dao Mengsai smiled and said to his brother: "In the past Ming Dynasty and now Datong, the Chinese court was very kind. You are a chieftain. As long as you die, the court will not pursue it again. Brother, for the sake of the prosperity of the family, you'd better hurry up

go to hell!"

"I'll kill you!" Dao Yinkandy rushed over.

After only taking a few steps forward, Dao Yinkang was stabbed to death by random gunshots and fell to the ground with his eyes open.

Dao Mengsai took advantage of the situation and occupied the Territory Office. He said to his son: "You can take a few hundred people to stay here and keep an eye on your aunt. In the future, she will offer her to the court to plead guilty. I will lead my troops to the northeast and switch to meet the Chinese army. From now on, this

Meng Gensi is the world of our father and son!"

"Father, please don't worry. Whether it's my aunt or the chieftain's house, my son will keep a close eye on me." Daoshanpi said happily.

In the mountains of Northeast China, the patrol division had just broken through a checkpoint when Dao Mengsai led his troops and opened the second checkpoint to greet them.

This guy went to see Lu Liangqi alone, knelt down and kowtowed and said: "General Rong Bing, Tusi Dao Yin Kang has died, please general lead troops to Jingdong to take over the Tusi Mansion!"

"Very good!" Lu Liangqi smiled.

The chieftain was all killed, and the chieftain's brother personally surrendered. Is it possible that the fight will continue?

Of course, if they want to be forgiven by the court, Meng Gen's chieftain soldiers must go with the army to fight in Burma, and they must also provide part of the food and grass for the Datong army.
