Chapter 468: The scandal once again topped the hot search list
As for the reason, it is easy to understand.
Wu Sangui raised troops to rebel against the Qing Dynasty. If Li Dingguo counterattacked Yunnan and Guizhou now, it would only make his relatives angry and his enemies happy.
Since we can’t counterattack Yungui!
Then go to Myanmar!
Because of the cursed water disaster launched by King Mangbai of Myanmar, all Yongli's ministers were killed, and Yongli was captured and handed over to Wu Sangui.
Directly led to the collapse of the Yongli regime!
According to the vengeful nature of the Ming Dynasty, if Burma is not destroyed until it is destroyed, the matter will not be over!
What else is there to say, just fuck him!
Anyway, judging from the current situation, Li Dingguo and others have no other better choice besides attacking Myanmar.
Zhu Tingyun stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, what is the specific goal of the war against Burma?"
"Is it training troops? Looting and making a fortune? Or expanding territory!"
The purpose is different, and the intensity used in the war is naturally different.
When training troops, there is no need to kill too many people, just focus on the main force of the Burmese army.
If you want to make money by plundering, you will have to kill more people.
You are going to take other people's money, how can they not resist?
It would be abnormal not to kill people!
This is also the reason why ancient army robberies often turned into massacres of cities.
If we expand our territory, there will be more killings.
After all, this not only requires people’s money, but also land. How could they not resist?!
In order to conquer Shan State, Li Dingguo's troops not only recruited one faction to fight another and took advantage of local ethnic conflicts, but also killed many people.
It is not an exaggeration to say that there were mountains of corpses and rivers of blood!
Li Dingguo pondered for a while, and then spoke.
"The purpose is to train troops and plunder!"
Although looting doesn't sound good, Li Dingguo doesn't have much income at present, and they have to make ends meet, right?
Seeing everyone's eyes focused on him, Li Dingguo opened his mouth to explain.
"The situation in the north is uncertain now. Maybe when the war situation on the mainland becomes tense, we will send troops north to provide assistance."
“It’s not advisable to get too deeply involved in the war situation in Myanmar!”
If it's just training troops and looting, you can withdraw anytime you want after the battle!
But if you want to open up territory, you can't just withdraw!
Bai Wenxuan stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, I would like to invite you to be the vanguard!"
Li Laiheng, Habai and others also stepped forward to ask for a fight.
Li Dingguo's current troops do not lack the courage to fight.
Against the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, it may be a bit empty!
But if the opponent is a small country like Myanmar, it is completely true!
What else is there to say about the Heavenly Soldiers teaching a disobedient little brother?
In addition, if you are a vanguard, you will definitely get the first wave of looting bonuses and be the first to make a fortune.
As for the rest, all you can eat are scraps.
It’s no wonder that they are all vying to be the forwards!
Li Dingguo tapped his fingers on the table and then said.
"Since you both want to be the forward, let's take turns."
"Each person leads the team to advance a hundred miles, and then replaces others."
"..."
During their conversation, they paid no attention to Myanmar's military power.
But it's normal. Myanmar has been easily penetrated by them once.
Even the capital of Myanmar, Ava, was once occupied by them. If the king of Myanmar hadn't run so fast, Myanmar would have been destroyed by now.
Under such circumstances, how can they look down on Myanmar's military?
I didn't directly say that the Myanmar army is rubbish, but I was already very cautious.
From a military perspective, the campaign against Myanmar is more like a long-distance march than a training exercise.
…
Beijing!
The news that Wu Sangui rebelled and took up the banner of the Qing Dynasty spread very quickly from the southwest to the capital.
The moment the news came, the whole capital was shocked!
Bumbutai finally suppressed the heat of her affair with Obai.
As Wu Sangui raised the flag to clear the emperor's side, the news of killing Obai came.
The three days and three nights that Bumbutai and Obai have to say once again topped the hot search list in Beijing.
However, while gossip was flying in the sky, more people were clearly aware of the seriousness of the matter.
Something big happened in the south!
With Wu Sangui raising the flag, the entire south was basically out of the control of the Qing Dynasty.
In fact, Wu Sangui may go further at any time and threaten the Central Plains and Guanzhong!
What you need to know is that the Qing Dynasty had just transferred elite troops from the Central Plains and Guanzhong to the capital to form an army for the southern expedition.
In other words, both Guanzhong and the Central Plains are quite empty!
If Wu Sangui uses troops against Guanzhong and the Central Plains, there is a high probability that Guanzhong and the Central Plains will not be able to withstand it.
No matter how proud I, the Eight Banners uncle, am, no matter how much I look down on the Han people.
You should also take a high look at Wu Sangui's Guan Ningjun.
In recent years, the overall situation in the world has changed so fast!
The Qing court was caught off guard and couldn't keep up with the pace at all.
In the Qianqing Palace, Bumbutai's face looked gloomy and scary.
"What on earth is going on? Wu Sangui has obviously been granted a national surname, and was even carried under the Manchu military flag by his entire clan."
"Such an honor, isn't it enough for him?!"
"What does Wu Sangui want? Do I have to love the throne of the Xinjueluo family to be satisfied?!"
From the current point of view, the Qing Dynasty's gift to Wu Sangui is indeed very generous, but the greed of people is never-ending.
"Everyone, let's talk about Wu Sangui's rebellion. How should the Qing Dynasty respond to it?"
"Should we first quell the chaos in Jiangnan and annihilate Ni Ming, or should we prioritize sending troops to quell Wu Sangui's rebellion and stabilize the southwest?"
Bumbutai also knew that dividing troops was a taboo.
Therefore, facing the chaos in the south, she only asked about the order, not the choice of dividing the troops.
Oboi, who was originally very high-spirited in the court, has now simply become a little transparent.
Huddle in the crowd, say nothing, and try to reduce your sense of existence.
There has been too much shit on his body recently, if he dares to show up now to make his presence felt.
That is seeking death!
In order to avoid suspicion, Bumbutai also ignored Obai and asked other people instead.
Now, Hong Chengchou has led his troops southward with Tuhai. If Bumbutai wants to ask for advice, he can only ask Sony, Suksaha, Ebilong and others.
Sony stood up and said.
"The Empress Dowager, we, the Qing Dynasty, should still give top priority to the war in Jiangnan and Guangdong and Guangxi."
"Jiangnan and Guangdong and Guangxi are the important financial and taxation areas of our Qing Dynasty, and they are densely populated. Most local people have dissatisfaction with our Qing Dynasty, and their war potential far exceeds that of the southwest."
"If Jiangnan and Guangxi fall into the hands of Ming thieves and are managed by them for a while, the consequences will be disastrous!"
"But the three southwest provinces are relatively poor and sparsely populated. Even if they fall into the hands of the traitor Wu Sangui temporarily, it will not affect the overall situation of the world."
"We, the Qing Dynasty, should not change our counter-insurgency plans just for the sake of Wu Sangui!"
"..."
What Sony said was exactly the strategy used by the Qing government to pacify the Three Feudatories in history.
Southeast first, then southwest!
The reason is precisely because Sony said that the southeast is rich and the southwest is poor.
Bumubutai nodded slightly when he heard this and said.
"But, do we, the Qing Dynasty, want to dispatch some troops to Guanzhong and the Central Plains to guard against Wu Sangui's invasion?"
If only the three southwestern provinces were lost to Wu Sangui, Bumubutai would grit his teeth and accept it.
But what if Wu Sangui took advantage of the main force of the Qing Dynasty to fight with the Ming thieves and Geng Ni in the south of the Yangtze River, and took the opportunity to break into Guanzhong and the Central Plains.
Nabumu Butai was a little bit unacceptable.
Ye Bilong stood up, knelt down and kowtowed, and then spoke.
"The Empress Dowager may be able to mobilize some troops from Shanxi and Shandong into Guanzhong and the Central Plains respectively to guard against Wu Sangui."
