Chapter 870 866 [Kill father and beg for surrender]

Chapter 870 866 [Killing father and begging for surrender but not succeeding]

Jingmai (Chiangmai), Babaisi once again attracted Chinese envoys.

Last time it came from the south, but this time it came from the north, and it brought the imperial edict directly.

The envoy's name was Tu Ai, and he had been accompanying the army to issue imperial edicts. Meng Gensi surrendered, and further south was the Eight Hundred Division. Tu Ai came with a few soldiers.

"Why haven't you sent troops yet?" Tu Ming angrily yelled.

Zhao Lengzhai knelt on the ground and said, "Angel Rong Bing, I am collecting food and gathering troops. I will definitely be able to send troops next month."

Zhaolingzhai can actually also be called Daolengzhai.

The Bazi is called "Meng", and the leader of a Bazi is "Tao Meng". The village is called "Man", and the leader of a village is "Tao Man".

Nao means leader.

After the Han surname custom of the Ming Dynasty spread to the Dai area, the chieftains all took "Dao" (Tao) as their surname.

There are also people with the surnames Zhao and Shao, which come from "Zhao" (king). Dao Mengsai, who killed his brother in the front, usually calls himself "Shao Mengsai". Meng Gensi's family, and Zhao Leng in front of him

Zhai, everyone is thinking about being a descendant of the royal family.

Tu Qian asked: "You claimed your surname was Dao when writing documents to the court, and you claimed your surname was Zhao in private. What is your surname?"

Zhao Lengzhai replied: "My surname is Dao."

"If you dare to claim your surname as Zhao again, I will take back your title of Eight Hundred Dadian Xuanwei Envoy!" Tu Yu angrily scolded.

"I don't dare." Zhao... Daolengzhai kowtows like pounding garlic.

Tu Qian gave an unquestionable order: "Within five days, we must mobilize all the troops and horses to attack Burma. If you fail to send troops within the time limit, you will be responsible for the consequences!"

"Yes!" Daolengzhai was extremely frightened.

He called himself Zhao, just to feel refreshed. He didn't want to fight anyone. He could just defend his one-third of an acre of land, but he was caught between several major forces and he didn't dare to offend anyone easily.

Now, you have to offend even if you don't have to offend.

Daolengzhai did not dare to wait until the fifth day of the deadline and sent troops on the third day. While sending troops himself, he asked the leaders within his jurisdiction to quickly follow with his soldiers.

Although the native soldiers of the Eight Hundred Division had extremely poor combat effectiveness, the main enemy force in the area they were attacking had already been transferred to the north.

Climbing over mountains and valleys, conquering villages and towns along the way, it turned out that there was no disadvantage in every direction.

With such a smooth march into the army, Daolengzhai actually gained confidence and felt that he was very awesome.

The regular division led by Liu Xinyu encountered a similar situation when they came to the border of Mengliansi. Chieftain Menglian not only gave up resistance, but also went to the front line to plead guilty.

The troops on the eastern front of the North Route Army defeated Chesi, Mengliansi, Menggensi and Babaisi without much fighting. The combined strength of the imperial and chieftain forces on the east side of the North Route quickly expanded to nearly 60,000 people.

, killing Mubang in a mighty manner.

Historically, the situation in the Qing-Burmese War was similar, with chieftains from all over the country choosing to submit one after another.

Qianlong's cunning maneuver was that during the Qing-Burmese War, the imperial court did not force the chieftains from Burma to send troops to help. After the war, the imperial court only conferred upon the chieftains, but then ignored them.

"Yongchang Mansion Wen Zheng" records: Leave the three ministers alone and let Burma handle it, but you can still say, Burma has been surrendered and obedient for all generations, and the land in Yanggong still belongs to me although it belongs to Burma.

The translation is: The Manchu and Qing court established chieftains but did not manage them, and allowed these chieftains to be dealt with by Myanmar. They also plausibly said that Myanmar has been surrendered and submissive for generations. Although the chieftains in Yanggong and other places obeyed Myanmar, they ultimately obeyed us.

of the Qing Dynasty.

The current target of attack is Mubang. The chieftain of Mubang no longer exists and was completely annexed by Myanmar.

The troops of the Eight Hundred Division attacked from the southeast, the patrol division, Chesi Division, and the Meng Gen Division allied forces attacked from the east, and Liu Xinyu's regular division and Meng Lian Division attacked from the northeast. The Burmese army here has less than 5,000 standing troops.

Facing an offensive from three sides, he ignored his head and finally fled directly towards the capital.

Without any effort, Liu Xinyu occupied the entire Mu State.

He knew that this was not the main battlefield. The mountains were rolling and he spent most of his time marching. It was estimated that by the time he reached Ava (the capital of Myanmar), all the friendly forces had already finished the decisive battle. The main goal along the way was to conquer the Dai chieftains along the way.

!

"My humble minister is very loyal. I bow to the army of the Great Harmony of the Celestial Dynasty. Long live the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty!"

Kneeling in front of Liu Xinyu was Hanzhong, the nephew of Hangai, the chieftain of Mubang.

Before the Mubang chieftain was destroyed, he had been helping the Ming Dynasty fight the war.

Han Zhong's grandfather was named Han Qin, and his great-grandfather was named Han Jinzhong. Both of them had made military exploits for the Ming Dynasty. The Han family had been killed by Burma. Now that the Datong Army has come, they finally waited for the opportunity to take revenge.

Hundreds of people came to seek refuge.

Han Zhong said: "Mubang has resisted the Burmese for hundreds of years, and the war was the most intense. The Burmese mobilized 300,000 troops across the country, and only lost their troops and generals to defeat our Mubang warriors. I, a Shan man, always..."

"Remember, in Chinese they are called Dai people." Dao Kangmu, a general of the Dai people, interrupted.

"The general is right," Han Zhong quickly corrected his accent, "I, a Dai man, yearn for the Celestial Empire all the time and think about overthrowing the Burmese rule. As long as the general gives the order, I can recruit tens of thousands of Dai warriors to help!"

Liu Xinyu said: "The imperial court has issued an order to allow you to rebuild the Ava country of the Dai people! You are so loyal and brave, you may be able to become the king of Ava."

Hanzhong was overjoyed: "Your Majesty is wise!"

It is true that the Ava Dynasty in Myanmar was founded by the Dai people, but it has nothing to do with the Han family. The court simply wanted to bury a nail here.

The Toungoo Dynasty of Myanmar founded by the Burmese people had very fierce ethnic conflicts. There was a great uprising of the Mon people in the south and continued resistance by the Dai people in the north. They relied on military suppression to maintain their rule.

The Datong imperial court's meticulous work was very impressive, and they had contacted him in advance. This Hanzhong was also contacted by his meticulous work.

Unlike the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, which did not engage in intelligence work at all. The Qing-Burmese War lasted for two years, and the imperial court did not even know who the enemy was. They thought they were fighting the main force of the Toungoo Dynasty, but in fact the enemy was the partial division of the Gonbang Dynasty - not even

It is clear that Myanmar has changed its dynasty.

"You go recruit an army, raise food and wages, and then go attack Ava together." Liu Xinyu said.

"yes!"

Han Zhong kowtows and takes orders.

Liu Xinyu looked to the northwest. The place where Huang Yao marched was the main battlefield of the North Army.



Mengmao (Nankan).

The residence of the Mengmao Chieftain was located in Ruili a few decades ago, which later became the Mengmao Town of Ruili City.

Chieftain Mengmao was the most aggressive in the late Ming Dynasty, and he always acted as the vanguard of Myanmar's border invasions.

When Burma invaded Mu State, the chieftain of Mengmao Duoga was killed by Hanqin, the chieftain of Mu State, because he rushed too fast. Hanqin took the opportunity to occupy Ruili, built forts and farmed there, and later dedicated the land of Ruili to

Ming dynasty.

With the Han family having these merits, the new dynasty of Datong naturally missed their old friendship, so they planned to support Han Zhong in founding the country.

The Datong Army set out from Ruili and traveled more than 50 miles down the river to where the Mengmao chieftain was stationed.

The battle here broke out first, even before the Datong Army on the South Road crossed the sea and landed!

Huang Yao's main force was not here. Those who attacked Mengmao Chieftain were only more than 10,000 patrolmen and the patrolmen's anti-smuggling boats.

The patrol troops were temporarily equipped with 36 artillery pieces.

Chieftain Mengmao was thinking too hard and only had more than 400 soldiers in hand. Because the Datong patrol arrived so quickly, he did not even have time to go to the countryside to recruit local soldiers.

"General, my Lord is willing to submit to the Heavenly Kingdom!" The envoy went out of the city and knelt down to ask for surrender.

Pan Kai, the temporary inspection division commander, said with an expressionless face: "Behead, attack the city immediately. Kill all the men of the Duo clan! All the female family members of the Duo clan will be escorted to the north to be married to those in the north who have no wives."

As the vanguard of Myanmar's invasion, how can he be qualified to surrender?

"Boom boom boom!"

Duosifa was hiding in the castle, scared to death.

Invading Chinese territory was what his father did. When he succeeded to the throne, the Datong Army had already recovered Yunnan. He only dared to be arrogant in his own territory. Where could he dare to touch the tiger's beard of the Datong court?

Moreover, the walled city where Duosifa lived was not very strong.

Their family has lived in Ruili for generations, and that is the real Mengmao Walled City. The current dilapidated walled city was built later and cannot withstand artillery bombardment.

The walled city has been surrounded, with more than 10,000 people surrounding more than 400 people, and they can't even think of breaking out of the siege.

Duosifa stood dazedly behind the wall. The soldiers on the wall had been frightened by the shells and were hiding, looking around not knowing what to do.

His son Duoche walked over and said bravely: "Father, I'm afraid I can't escape today. I can only try to use your head."

Duosifa did not scold his son, but cried mournfully: "Even if you kill me, I'm afraid it will be useless."

"You have to give it a try." Duo Che said, drawing his sword.

Duosifa asked with a cry in his voice: "Is your knife sharpened the fastest?"

Doche said: "It's sharpened."

Duosifa added: "Forget it, I'd better hang myself. Your sword skills have never been good."

Duoche urged: "Father, hurry up, otherwise it will be too late."

The father and son got a rope, and Duoche looked on, while Duosifa stood up, trembling all over.

The sound of gunfire outside still continued.

Duosifa hung the rope around his neck several times, but feared death and pulled it back, looking at his chieftain's mansion with great nostalgia.

Duoche finally became impatient, drew his knife and said, "Father, don't waste time!"

After much thought, he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, hung his neck, kicked off his feet, and swung on the swing under the eaves.

Before he could verify whether he was dead or not, Duoche removed his father, cut off his head and sent people out to ask for his surrender.

"General, this is the chieftain's head. We sincerely surrender this time. Please forgive us." The envoy kowtowed tremblingly.

The division commander Pan Kai was unmoved and still said the same thing: "Cut it down!"

It was useless to kill his father, Duoche finally despaired.

He was afraid of being hacked to death with random knives, and even more afraid that he might not die for a while, so he subconsciously looked at the rope on which his father was hanging.

"The wall is down!"

"Run quickly!"

The news that the village wall had been blown down made Duo Che determined to commit suicide by hanging himself on a stool.

The chieftain soldiers guarding the city had dispersed and were looking for a place to escape over the wall. But there was nowhere to escape. They could only escape half a mile before they were caught and killed on the spot.

There were bursts of crying and howling in the chieftain's mansion.

Except for women and children under seven years old (visual inspection), the military order is to execute all. The Datong Army will use this place as a grain and grass transfer station. Then they will go down the river and go straight to Mengmi.
