Wanli 1592

Chapter 672
In the 22nd year of Wanli, after Xiao Ruxun led his army to defeat the Toungoo Dynasty, out of the need for self-development, he moved his original allies, the Mon people of Myanmar, to the south of Chittagong District in today’s Bangladesh, and drove them out of the country. out of Myanmar.

And in order to ensure that these guys would not return to Burma again to cause harm to his own construction, he built Pingxi City, a military city, in the current location of Mengdu, and stationed an army of about [-] soldiers for a long time.

After the reorganization of the Zhennan Army in the 24th year of Wanli, the four major battalions of the Zhennan Army Infantry took turns guarding this stationing task, and each battalion guarded for half a year.

In order to ensure the stability of traffic from Bagu to Pingxi City, Xiao Ruxun specially conscripted [-] prisoners of war slaves to build a road to ensure the smooth flow of the road and the immediacy of message transmission.

There are several military cities like Pingxi City in north-central Myanmar, all of which are expedient measures that Xiao Ruxun thought of in order to control the territory under the premise that it is impossible to immigrate, live and develop.

But even if it is an expedient measure, you can't mess around. Xiao Ruxun knows this deeply, so when choosing a place to resettle the Mon people, Xiao Ruxun chose the Chittagong area, because at this moment there is a small unified dynasty in this area. , Arakan dynasty.

This dynasty, like the Mughals farther west, was in its heyday, and of course, the small country could easily have been taken care of by even a present-day Burmese town.

The one who can arm-wrestle with Daming is Akbar of the Mughals. Akbar's rule has entered the late stage, and he still has seven or eight years to live. But at this moment, the Mughal dynasty, Xiao Ruxun Really do not want to provoke.

But not to provoke does not mean not to be on guard, not to be on guard. Arakan and the idiots sent Portuguese mercenaries to join the war when Mangyingli invaded Ming Dynasty.

Among the Portuguese mercenaries that Xiao Ruxun wiped out were the Portuguese mercenaries of the Arakan Dynasty. After Xiao Ruxun learned about it, he directly blacklisted this dynasty.

So the migration place of the Mon people was chosen.

With the large-scale immigration of the Mon people, the king of Arakan, Mingyesaki, was in a bad luck. At that time, the area where the Mon people moved was still no-man’s land. Although it already belonged to Arakan, only a few aborigines lived there. It was easily killed by the Mon people and the dove occupied the magpie's nest.

Under the military threat of the Ming army, the Mon people continued to expand their living space to the north, and finally violated the core interests of the Arakan Dynasty, so the King of Arakan began to organize the army to fight the Mon people, trying to expel the Mon people from their own land.

However, with the assistance of some muskets, artillery and even military commanders supported by the Ming army, several military operations in Arakan were defeated by the Mons. , helplessly forced to admit the Mon people's possession of the southern coastal area.

However, Mingye Suoji has never given up his ownership of this land. For three years, he has been trying every means to fight wits and courage with the Mon people. Small-scale frictions continue, but neither side dares to engage in large-scale battles.

Mingyesuoji also gradually realized that there was a big backer behind the Mon people. It seemed to be a big backer, but he didn't know if it was because Mingyesuoji didn't want to regain his territory through peaceful means.

It's just that there is an extra big backer, and Mingyesaki has to deal with it carefully and properly. While restricting the Mon people from continuing to go north, he hastened to arm his own firearms troops and recruit more Portuguese to help in the battle.

As a result, some were recruited, but in every battle, these Portuguese died the fastest and most, and many died from being shot in the head. Gradually, the Portuguese did not dare to be employed by Mingyesaki, and Mingyesaki was completely fell into decline.

The Meng people are steadily advancing their own living space, but they are increasingly dissatisfied with Xiao Ruxun's tough policy. They have to fight continuously to gain living space, but their side is developing extremely rapidly. People who did business in the past Praising Xiao Ruxun's land development is good, so good and so good, naturally some people will be upset, and if the pink eye disease is together, they will not be able to continue.

Slowly, the Mon people and Mingye Suoji reached a consensus in a certain sense. The Mon people no longer went north, and Mingyesuoji no longer organized troops to go south. The Mon people tried to go south and east to return to their original land. However, the south side is guarded by Pingxi City, and the high mountains and harsh terrain in the east also limit their expansion virtually.

As a result, this dilemma gradually turned into anger, which made the Meng people more and more dissatisfied with Xiao Ruxun's Zhennan Army, and more and more wanted to return to their original hometown to live a good life.

There are more and more harassments against Pingxi City.

After discovering this sign, Xiao Ruxun started to arrange the war in Luzon, and then used the missionary rights as a bait to let Alexander and Matteo Ricci go here to preach, disturbing them from within, causing them to have civil strife, so as to find an excuse to send troops.

Now, that excuse has been given.

Xiao Ruxun didn't care how Arakan King Mingyesaki viewed this war. Anyway, he would directly exterminate the Mon people. As for the Arakan Dynasty, he had no interest, because Arakan was between Burma Town and the Mughals. The only buffer zone between the empires, if Arakan is killed, wouldn't it be a confrontation with Mughal?

Xiao Ruxun was not ready for a war with the Mughals, he was just a military town, and the Mughals were a big empire, which was a little irrational.

As for Akbar's considerations, Xiao Ruxun naturally has no time to pay attention, but he thinks this guy is old and should pay more attention to the issue of heirs. Large-scale foreign troops should not be his first choice, otherwise, he would not keep Arakan. Small countries do not eat.

Must be out of energy.

This gave Xiao Ruxun the confidence to make small moves under Akbar's nose.

Of course, this can't be considered a small move.

On March 26, the [-]th year of Wanli, the main force of the Zhennan Army paraded in Bagu, which is Nan'an City.

In this battle, Yuan Huang personally took command as Xiao Ruxun's military adviser and director of the government affairs office. He led the Zhennan Army with [-] troops to attack the Meng people. They must win, must win, and lay the foundation for future development.

Yuan Huang is keenly aware that something is coming soon, he needs to prepare everything before that, when Xiao Ruxun needs him, he can give him everything Xiao Ruxun needs, so that he can live up to Xiao Ruxun's love for him Trust and arrange.

Yuan Huang wore the battle armor that Xiao Ruxun gave him when he was in North Korea, and held the sword left by Xiao Ruxun, representing Xiao Ruxun to exercise the highest command of the Zhennan Army.
