Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 818 The Southwest lost two thousand miles in the past, and now it should be restored!

As early as in Vietnam, Sun Kewang discovered that he could not accumulate power by killing officials, gentry and landlords and mobilizing poor people like he did in Ming Dynasty.

Because in the southeast peninsula, although the people were suffering due to various oppressions, it was easier to find a bite to eat than in the north of the Ming Dynasty due to geographical and climate reasons. Therefore, unless the people were pushed to the extreme, they would not rebel.

What's more, the ethnic situation of the countries in the southeastern peninsula is relatively complicated, and the contradictions between various ethnic groups are often above class contradictions.

And if he and his subordinates want to survive in this kind of place, they must first learn to collude with the officials, or the nobles and feudal lords of various ethnic groups, and become mercenaries.

Only by sorting out the main ethnic contradictions in a country and the interest relationship among the various ethnic groups can the common people be induced to overthrow the rule of the feudal lords of various ethnic groups on this basis.

When he was in Vietnam and Nanzhang, Sun Kewang didn't see this kind of opportunity, but he saw it in Dongyu.

Now King Dongyu is named Mang Da, the son of Talong.

During Thalom's reign, he adopted a policy of rest and recuperation, which made the Toungoo Dynasty recover its national power after years of foreign wars and expansion, and became rich and strong.

But just like all feudal dynasties, hidden dangers have been born under the prosperous age, and there are lice growing under the gorgeous robes.

When Mang Da came to power, the Toungoo Kingdom declined rapidly due to internal corruption.

In addition, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom also set up companies in Toungoo after Portugal, which meant that Toungoo began to be invaded by colonial forces and aggravated the weakening of its national strength.

This year, Sun Kewang, who was initially familiar with the Toungoo Kingdom, finally joined several feudal lords of the Mon tribe in the area of ​​the former Baigu Dynasty to launch an uprising against the oppression of the Mang clan.

Of course, for the Mon people, they are resisting the oppression of the Burmese; but for Sun Kewang, on the surface, he led the low-level Mon people to revolt and overthrow the Burmese rulers who oppressed them, but in fact he took this opportunity to absorb the Mon The bottom layer to strengthen its own strength.

Nearly 100 years ago, the Mon people revolted once because they could not bear the oppression of the Burmese rulers such as the Mang family.In nearly 100 years, they will carry out another great uprising.

And this time and space, the existence of Sun Kewang, and the Shadingzhou forces who fled from Yunnan to Toungoo at the beginning, catalyzed the contradictions within the Toungoo Kingdom, which made the country increase again at the middle point of the two major uprisings 200 years apart. There was an uprising.

Jinyiwei Beizhen Fusi has placed secret spies in Sun Kewang's forces, and there are more than one.

Therefore, after the Dongyu Meng people's uprising broke out, Jin Yiwei reported the situation there.

Although Beizhen Fusi did not have the ability to interfere with the decision-making of the Ming court, their intention to provide this kind of information was obvious—Look, Your Majesty, now is the perfect time for Daming to take action against Toungoo!

After reading the memorial to Beizhen Fusi, Aimee Zhu was silent for a moment.

In her plan, Daming was supposed to collect Vietnam first—she had already thought about the plan, and started after she gave birth.

Unexpectedly, before the plan to collect Vietnam was implemented, an opportunity appeared first in Toungoo.

So should Daming seize this opportunity?

In other words, during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the official state capital, the Yunnan Chief Envoy also had two Xuanfu divisions, Nandian and Ganya, as well as Luchuan, Pingmian, Mubang, Mengyang, Myanmar, and Babai. , Cheli, Laos, Dagula, Dimasa, Diwuci and other ten propaganda divisions.

That is to say, under the authority of the Ming army during the Yongle period, almost half of the Burmese region in later generations surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and became the chieftain of the Ming Dynasty.

However, in the tenth year of Jiajing (1531), after the establishment of the Toungoo Kingdom, it gradually unified the Burmese region, and continued to attack the chieftains originally belonging to Ming Dynasty.

Coupled with the political darkness of the Ming Dynasty before, local officials often used the power of the court to blackmail the chieftains, and some chieftains were directly sentenced to surrender to Toungoo.

So, in the 34th year of Wanli (1606), Dongyu attacked Mupang with an army of 30, but the Ming army could not save Mupang, and Mupang fell. In this way, Ming lost all the chieftains in Burma.

From this point of view, Daming sent troops directly to Dongyu for a full reason, that is to regain the lost land in the past.

But now the Mon people in the Kingdom of Toungoo are revolting, and Sun Kewang, Sha Dingzhou and others are fishing in troubled waters, making things even more chaotic, and it is undoubtedly a better opportunity.

Considering that in later history, Emperor Yongli Zhu Youlang was tricked and attacked by the Mang clan after fleeing to Burma, and then the captive Yongli Emperor was given to Wu Sangui, so Auntie Zhu felt that she should destroy the Mang clan first.

Thinking of this, Zhu Wei immediately took the memorial aside, and said to Liu Shuying, "Send this memorial to the Military Affairs Academy, and let the Minister of Military Affairs discuss the recovery of Mu Bang, Meng Yang and other lost lands in the past."

As soon as Liu Shuying heard this, she guessed that Aimee Zhu was going to send troops to fight Dongyu.

If she is using the old way of thinking, she should advise Aimi Zhu not to use force. After all, the Ming Dynasty ended the war against the Qing Dynasty last year and took over the Koryo Peninsula, which is still in the process of digestion.

But as the senior secretary of the Emperor's Secretariat of the Ming Empire, she is very clear about how strong the Ming Dynasty is today in terms of national power and military strength.

It can be said that although the battle of destroying the Qing Dynasty and capturing Korea was very important, Daming did not use too many troops, nor did it cost much money.

Therefore, it is not a problem for Auntie Zhu to use troops against Dongyu now.

What's more, as far as she knows, since Li Dingguo pacified Sun Kewang and Yang Zhanping the Shadingzhou Rebellion, there has been no war in the southwest for several years.

The Southwest Frontier Army has been working hard for the past few years, and it has been working hard, and it is just waiting for a big battle to gain military exploits.

If this state has been maintained for a long time, maybe the southwestern frontier generals will take the initiative to provoke external disputes, which will lead to wars.

If something like this happened that was not planned by the imperial court, it would be bad. It would be better for the imperial court to take the initiative to use troops to the southwest.

···
Military Academy.

After Li Yan and others received the memorial from Beizhen Fusi and the oral order from Liu Shuying, they immediately found out the map of the southwest region and the southeast peninsula, and hung it on a large screen.

Seeing that the chieftains who belonged to Daming in the past are now actually controlled by Dongyu, Li Yan couldn't help but flashed a bright light in his eyes, and said: "A hundred years ago, our Daming's national power was weak and we had no time to take care of the southwest, so that Yunnan lost two thousand miles of territory.

Now that our Ming Dynasty is at its peak, and our military might overwhelms the whole world, it is time to send troops to recover all the land lost in the past. "

Not to mention, young ministers such as Li Yan and Hong Niangzi, as well as old ministers such as Zhu Dadian and Ye Tinggui, when they learned that Zhu Yu wanted to take back the lost land in the Southwest, why didn't their blood boil with excitement?

Ye Tinggui said: "I still remember that when the news of Mubang's fall came out in the past, the government and the public were shaken, but no one dared to speak out about sending troops to take it back.

Just because the court was trapped in internal friction in the past and the national power was empty, it was impossible to control the ownership of a chieftain in the southwest.Even those who are unwilling can only pat the railing all over, sighing in vain.

Now my country and army are strong in Ming Dynasty, but Dongyu's national power is in decline. If we don't regain the lost ground at this time, when will we wait? "

　Second more.
