"Thank you, Your Highness, for taking care of me. Neither the official nor his subordinates were injured." Dao Bailong bowed and replied, "It's just that my efforts were very small. I am ashamed of myself."

"It doesn't have to be like this." Zhu Yongxing pointed in the direction of the canyon and said: "At least hundreds of Qing troops were killed by the rocks. This is also a great achievement!"

Dao Bailong hesitated for a moment and then got to the point, "This official is not familiar with battle formations and is really not suitable for commanding battles. Please appoint a general to command our own warriors."

Zhu Yongxing's eyes narrowed and he stared at Dao Bailong's face, not quite understanding the true intention of his sudden move.

"Your Highness will be blessed by the gods, and everything will be accomplished. I want to return to Tengchong and recruit hundreds of our own tribe to fight for Your Highness."

Dao Bailong felt that this might be the best way to gain Zhu Yongxing's trust. The armed force he could control was a double-edged sword, which was both a guarantee and the main reason for Zhu Yongxing's vigilance. Self-liberation of military power,

Putting all the best members of the clan under the command of Zhu Yongxing and the Ming generals is undoubtedly the best way to show loyalty.

Zhu Yongxing pondered, and a smile slowly appeared on his face. It was really uncomfortable to be under the control of the Ming army and still want to be a wallflower! Since his decision was one-sided, he naturally wanted to win over him and play the role of a local snake.

It's not small either. Moreover, Zhu Yongxing also has another long-term idea, which can make Dao Bailong see a distant and bright future.

The Dai people have different names in each dynasty in China. Before the Qin Dynasty, they were called "Pu"; during the Han Dynasty, they were called "Dian Pu", "Dian Yue", "Shan", etc.; during the Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, they were called "Liao"

", "Ailao", "Shan", etc.; in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it was called "Ailao", "Nanzhao", "White Man", "Wuman", etc.; in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, it was called "Golden Teeth", "Black Teeth"

", "Hua Man", "White Clothes", etc.; in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, that is now, they were called "Bai Yi" and "Pai Yi".

For Zhu Yongxing, the name is not important. What is important is that the Dai people are widely distributed. According to the classification of later countries, they can be found in Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and even India. As for the name in various countries, there is also "Tai"

", "Lao", "Shan", "Ahom", etc.

Undoubtedly, if the scattered Dai people can be integrated or even contacted with each other, Zhu Yongxing will be able to gain quite a lot of eyes and ears in Southeast Asian countries and obtain favorable conditions for future actions. Especially in Annan and Myanmar, this is

The two small countries that Zhu Yongxing is currently paying most attention to are also the ones he wants to attack soon.

Zhu Yongxing's thoughts were churning, but Dao Bailong was uneasy. He didn't know whether his loyalty could be recognized by Zhu Yongxing. He kept his bowing posture, and sweat beads appeared on his forehead.

"Only those with a first-class mind can achieve extraordinary achievements; only those with a great realm can achieve great achievements." Zhu Yongxing finally spoke slowly, and Dao Bailong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, listening carefully to these words that he would never forget.

"Dao Tuguan, what you lack is not ability, but mind, vision and realm. So when you do things, you often worry about gains and losses." Zhu Yongxing criticized first, and then reached out and patted Dao Bailong on the shoulder to signal.

He stood up and said, "I'm not afraid that you want too much, but I'm afraid that you don't have the ambition, let alone the effort. The Mengshan Ke clan is different. How can the little Gaoping be satisfied? The commander-in-chief of Annan is not Si

Patriarch Wei’s final goal.”

"Are they going to split the soil and seal the vassal?" Dao Bailong asked in surprise, his eyes widening.

"The cracking of the soil is not accurate, it should be said that it is the restoration of the soil." Zhu Yongxing corrected: "Annan and Myanmar were once the lands under our rule in the Ming Dynasty. Why is it strange that they have been recovered again? Although the Mengshan Ke tribe is still small in number, it has

There is a Hmong clan in Annan, and they belong to the same clan branch, so they can unite to strengthen their momentum. Add the Ming army to help, take Gaoping first, and then encroach on other lands. In time, it is not impossible to take over the Zheng family's country in Annan. You guys

There are many branches of the Baiyi people, and they live in Annan, Siam, Myanmar and other places. If they can unite, they will be stronger than the Mengshan Ke people, right?"

Dao Bailong blinked his eyes, with an expression of excitement and surprise on his face. Zhu Yongxing's intention seemed to be obvious. He wanted him to imitate the Mengshan Ke tribe and crack the soil, no, restore the soil and seal the vassal. However,

Where is the land that needs to be recovered? Can this small tribe succeed?

"The Burmese people are capricious and bully the emperor and the court who have taken refuge. Sooner or later they will be defeated." Zhu Yongxing cast his gaze to the south, narrowing his eyes slightly with a hint of coldness, "The Shan people are a branch of the Baiyi people in Myanmar.

There are many people living in Shan State in the north. If you want to return to the Ming Dynasty in the future, I will lead the Ming army to help them."

Shan State was called "Miaoxiang Country" in Sanskrit during the Tang and Song Dynasties. At that time, it belonged to the same inseparable region as southern Yunnan and parts of Thailand and Laos. Shan State was separated from Yunnan only during the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, but there was no fixed border.

We come and go and have close ties. Among the various ethnic groups in Shan State, the Shan (Dai) people account for more than 60%, which is indeed a very favorable condition.

Encouraging and supporting the country's border chieftains to conquer and plunder abroad is not Zhu Yongxing's original creation. This trick was used by the Ming Dynasty and also by Burma. Incidentally, there was also the trick of colluding with other chieftains and cooperating inside and outside. Of course, this was first a kind of temptation and weakening

The other party's method was to launch a massive invasion.

Dao Bailong was very interested in Zhu Yongxing's ideas. One reason was the temptation to restore the land and become a vassal state. Another reason was that the Dao family had a deep hatred for Burma. During the Wanli period, the Burmese army invaded Yunnan on a large scale, burning and looting Shidian.

He captured the important town of Shunning, raided the Menglin Village, and later captured Zhanda, killing Zhanda's deputy envoy Daosiding and his tribe, which triggered a large-scale war between the Ming Dynasty and Myanmar that lasted for decades.

"Since His Highness has this intention, I dare not fail to do my best." Although Dao Bailong has not thought about it thoroughly, but since he has decided to go one-sided, he has no choice but to follow Zhu Yongxing's path to the end.

"Five, six years, more than ten years?" Zhu Yongxing smiled as if he was teasing, but also as if he was testing.

"We can wait." Dao Bailong took a deep breath and said: "Your Highness is wise and powerful, and his great achievements will surely be accomplished. Although I am gone, I still have descendants who are willing to fight to the death."

I am not afraid that you are ambitious, but I am afraid that you are incompetent and unwilling to contribute. Zhu Yongxing's eyes flashed and he patted Dao Bailong on the shoulder. There is no need to say too many words at this time. Everyone has their own gain. But it is a blank check.

With the support of another tribe, Zhu Yongxing was naturally happy.

"If the rainy season comes, can we hide an army in this mountain?" Zhu Yongxing turned around, his eyes moved on the undulating mountains, and said thoughtfully: "No need to be more, five hundred people will be enough."

Dao Bailong didn't know whether he should answer. He was silent for a while before tentatively saying: "Although it is difficult, it is not impossible. As long as there is shelter from the rain, enough dry food, and a strong body, five hundred people can still do it."

Made up of it.”

Zhu Yongxing narrowed his eyes and stopped talking. Even Dao Bailong thought he was just asking a casual question on a temporary basis.
