The Burmese army was completely wiped out, but the shouts of killing were still loud in the city of Ava.
Each Ming army was divided into plundering areas with different levels of wealth and poverty according to their military merits, and each of them plundered and made a fortune.
The city of Ava was in chaos, and the fire spread rapidly along with killings!
Li Dingguo stood at the top of the city of Ava, looking at the killings in the city of Ava.
With a calm expression, he held a military report in his hand.
This is not a military report after the Ming army invaded Myanmar, but a military report of Zhu Hongyu's great victory on the banks of the Suixi River.
Relying on the navy and geographical advantages, he surrounded and annihilated 10,000 Qing Army Eight Banners soldiers in one battle, and killed Shang Kexi's second son, Shang Zhixiao!
How long has it been since the Ming Dynasty achieved such a great victory?
He just chuckled and said.
"The Qing court is afraid that it will be in trouble!"
"If the Qing government mobilizes troops from Yunnan and Guizhou to assist Guangdong, it may be the best time for our army to counterattack Yunnan and Guizhou!"
Li Dingguo said to Bai Wenxuan and Zhu Tingyun beside him.
These two people are his confidants, and he doesn't need to carry anything behind his back.
Bai Wenxuan opened his mouth and put forward a different opinion.
"Wu Sangui in Yunnan and Guizhou is too strong. If our army wants to counterattack, Guangxi is the best choice!"
"At that time, His Royal Highness Jianguo will counterattack from Guangdong, King Yanping will counterattack from Fujian, and our army will counterattack from Guangxi."
"My Ming Dynasty will be able to connect the territory into one piece!"
Zhu Tingyun on the side also nodded thoughtfully and agreed.
"The general also thinks this is feasible!"
"It's better to connect the territory together than to be defeated individually!"
Li Dingguo looked thoughtful, and then expressed his agreement.
"I was wrong!"
"If the Qing government wanted to rush to support Guangdong, it should have mobilized troops from Guangxi, Hunan, and other places. In any case, it would not be Yunnan and Guizhou's turn."
While the three of them were discussing, Li Laiheng, Liu Tichun, and Habai also ran up from the city.
Li Laiheng said to Li Dingguo.
"Prince Jin, please order the troops and horses to be restrained and not to touch the women in the city!"
"Many of our brothers in the army are bachelors and have no families. Rather than letting the soldiers cause trouble, those women in the city should be given to the soldiers as wives!"
Li Laiheng focused on the women in the city.
Although Burmese women are a bit ugly, the ugliest ones are ordinary civilians, and the women of Burmese aristocrats are not bad in appearance.
Besides, ugly people can also have children!
What's wrong with a bunch of old bachelors?
Habai and Liu Tichun also suggested the same thing.
Because many soldiers in their army don’t have wives!
Li Dingguo also nodded and said.
"Okay, everyone can arrange their own subordinates and act accordingly!"
The fire in Ava lasted for three days!
The fire was extinguished three days later.
The Ming army brought a large amount of goods, drove carts, and packed many fertile young women with them, all the way north along the river, and Zhu Nibi returned to Mengla.
Li Dingguo felt that it was necessary for him to send someone to discuss with Zhu Hongyu about joining forces to counterattack the mainland.
Also, since I have seized so much gold and silver in this battle, I just want to buy a few more artillery pieces from His Highness the Supervisor.
Those Guangfu-1 field guns are really sharp in operation!
…
Capital City, Forbidden City!
The small south study room was crowded with important officials of the Qing court, and Bumubutai sat at the head of the room holding the six-year-old Kangxi.
He was surrounded by eunuchs and maids waiting to serve him.
Standing below are all the dignitaries of the Qing Dynasty!
The four ministers Sony, Ao Bai, Ye Bilong, Suk Saha and Gu Ming, the six ministries and nine ministers in the court, and even Hong Chengchou, who served as an official and was raised at home, also stood in the court class.
Bumubutai gently held Kangxi's little hand and comforted Kangxi who was a little nervous.
His voice was full of gentleness, and he spoke to the people below.
"Everyone must know what happened, right?"
"The Ming Dynasty rebels invaded Guangdong, and the imperial court was defeated twice in succession. The bannermen of Pingnan Prince's Palace suffered nearly 20,000 casualties and suffered heavy losses."
"King Pingnan submitted a letter requesting the withdrawal of the feudal vassal and wanted to return to his hometown in Liaodong!"
"What do you gentlemen think of this matter?"
Bumubutai, an old lady, has lived so long, experienced countless political struggles, and is quite keen on politics.
For the powerful Qing Dynasty, the two disastrous defeats in Guangdong were considered a loss of face.
But that’s all!
Those who died were all soldiers and horses of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, which did not harm the foundation of the Qing Dynasty!
However, Shang Kexi requested the withdrawal of the vassal state. This matter is very serious!
If the Qing government withdrew the Shang Kexi vassal, what would Wu Sangui and Geng Jingzhong think?
Good guy, they all say, "The cunning rabbit dies and is cooked by running dogs, but the good birds are gone and the bows are hidden."
But the Ming thieves still have many troops overseas, ready to counterattack the mainland at any time!
The Qing Dynasty is about to withdraw from the vassal state?!
Then when the Ming thieves are completely wiped out, won't they be put to death?
Is this good enough?
Bumbutai's political experience was not comparable to that of Kangxi.
After Kangxi came to power, he was still young and reckless. It is not surprising that he would get carried away after killing Obai and have the idea of cutting down the vassal, but Bumu Butai would not.
Because he knew that San Francisco can be said to be the foundation of the Qing Dynasty's rule and stability of the Southern Kingdom!
If the Three Feuds are forced to rebel, the south of the Yangtze River will immediately change its flag!
In order to stabilize San Francisco, Bumu Butai knew that the Qing court would never agree to the abolition of Pingnan Palace!
Sony on the side said.
"Reporting to the Queen Mother, I have something to say!"
Bumbutai narrowed his eyes and said.
"speak!"
Sony knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and then spoke.
"In my opinion, the imperial court will never agree to King Pingnan's request to withdraw from the feudal vassal!"
"Not only can't we do this, we must also issue an order to appease the old man, King Pingnan!"
"Rewards gold, silver, beauties, canonize the crown prince, and mobilize troops from Guangxi, Hunan and other places to reinforce Guangdong!"
The reason why we need to mobilize troops from Guangxi and Hunan is not from Fujian, Yunnan and Guizhou.
First, because Fujian and Yunnan-Guizhou are also on the front lines facing the enemy, and their military strength is not abundant!
The second reason is that Fujian and Yunnan-Guizhou are vassals of Jingnan Prince and Pingxi Prince. If the imperial court wants to mobilize troops, it can certainly do so.
Geng Jingzhong and Wu Sangui are not so courageous to disobey!
But it will be more troublesome and there will be more procedures to go through!
It is far more convenient than directly deploying troops from Guangxi and Hunan, which are directly under the imperial court!
In normal times, the imperial court would definitely not mind deploying troops from Fujian and Yunnan-Guizhou to weaken the strength of the Pingxi King and the Jingnan King.
But this is wartime, and I don’t know when the Ming army will attack Guangdong again.
Under such a situation, the DPRK and the Central Government did not use their little thoughts and moved troops into Guangdong from areas directly under the imperial court as soon as possible.
The most important thing is to appease King Pingnan!
Bumbutai said.
"That's right!"
As if he remembered something again, Bumbutai asked.
"A few years ago in the battle of Xiamen, the imperial navy was completely wiped out!"
"At this point, the Ming thieves, relying on their naval superiority, began to show their power on the sea and repeatedly attacked our Qing coast!"
"It's me who is causing trouble in the Qing Dynasty!"
"We, the Qing Dynasty, can only respond with tactics like moving borders and banning seas, killing a thousand enemies and damaging ourselves eight hundred."
"It can be seen that it is impossible without a navy!"
"The rebuilding of the navy in our Qing Dynasty must be put on the agenda. I wonder if you, sir, have any suitable naval generals to recommend?"
The Qing court has recently suffered enough from not having a navy.
Is moving borders and banning seas useful?
The answer is yes, it works!
However, even if the border was moved and the sea was banned, the Qing court could only passively defend against the Ming navy's harassment.
When did the Qing Dynasty suffer such injustice?
In the past, the cavalry of the Qing army harassed the borders of the Ming army and plundered the Ming Dynasty to strengthen themselves. Unexpectedly, it was the other way around now!
