Chapter 123 (7) God-like art of war

However, the Burmese army sent guerrillas to follow the Qing soldiers and captured a few prisoners. After interrogation, they learned that the Qing soldiers had run out of food and lost their way, and most of the soldiers were not acclimatized to the environment and contracted various strange tropical diseases.The Burmese army was overjoyed and rushed to intercept and kill them immediately. It is already unrealistic to find any Awa again, the most important thing right now is to return by the same route.It is said that when the Qing army retreated, it had to pass through the dangerous suspension bridge, which was the most suitable place to ambush, but the Burmese army failed to catch up with the time and allowed the Qing army to retreat safely.Since then, the Burmese army has been entangled in the tail of the Qing army. The Qing army retreated step by step, and the Burmese army chased after them. At this time, the Qing army did not even have the intention to fight back. They only hoped to return to Mubang quickly and join the garrison there. .

How could the Burmese army not know about the Qing army's careful thinking?The camp of the Qing soldiers in Namubang had long been crushed by the Burmese army, and countless people were captured and killed. At this time, the Burmese army came from all directions and surrounded Mingrui's lone army. Mingrui smiled and said: You all think that I don't listen to advice, go deep alone, and kill the soldiers of the three armies. Is it because I am incompetent, because I don't know how to fight? No!I am an iron-blooded soldier, how could I not know how to fight! Now, let me let you see if I, Mingrui, can fight.

Order: Get up at the normal time tomorrow morning to blow the conch horn, but you will get up an hour later, so everyone needs to get enough sleep. What kind of order is this? The Qing army was baffled, but the command of the commander had to be obeyed, so they went to the camp to rest.The next day, when it was time to wake up, although the conch horn for getting up had already sounded three times, Mingrui ordered everyone to continue lying down and not to get up.After lying down for more than two hours, Mingrui allowed everyone to get up, and ordered: Each battalion should grab the leaves and grass roots nearby and eat them. Listen to my orders, and go out together, and chase after the Burmese army with their tails behind. kill it.

later?Occupation?Didn't the Burmese soldiers keep chasing after the Qing army? Everyone didn't know why, and they didn't dare to ask, so they grabbed the leaves nearby and "chi chi chi chi" as food, and then they all went out together.Sure enough, I saw the Burmese army marching forward, chasing something.The Qing army was overjoyed, shouted wildly, and suddenly chased them from behind. The Burmese soldiers were terrified and fled in all directions. More than 4,000 people were killed by the Qing soldiers. Keeping a distance of more than 20 miles is a safe bet. Only then did Mingrui break the secret: Let me tell you, the Burmese army was clearly chasing us, so why did they get ahead of us?This is because the Burmese army has been chasing us for a long time, and they have already figured out the daily routine of our army. They know that our army will set off on the 3rd snail in the morning, and then the Burmese army will come to chase and kill us.But this time, I deliberately made people blow the conch horn, but did not move. The Burmese army didn't know it. They thought we had already moved forward, so they chased after us with grotesque groans. In the end, they ran to the front and were hit by our army from behind. A reason not to lose?

At this point, the three armies suddenly realized: the general is brilliant, and his art of war is like a god... But, with the general's wisdom, we can return home safely, right? impossible!Mingrui told them: This place is called Bolong Old Factory. It used to be the mining area of ​​your family's Gongliyan. Gongliyan has tens of thousands of workers and 5,000 factory workers.If the geese in the palace are still there and join forces with us, this battle will not only be a question of whether to go home or not, but it will also completely conquer Myanmar.But Gong Liyan was killed by our own efforts, self-destructing the Great Wall, tearing down the fence, is there anyone more stupid than us in the world?

We are all so stupid, what face do we have to live on? If you are so stupid and talk about conquering Burma, what do you think of Burma? But we still have a chance to go back.But, not all of us. After saying this, Mingrui ordered the three armies to set off and arrived at Mengla.Going forward is the border. At this time, all the men capable of fighting in Myanmar rushed to the front, and more than 50,000 people stopped in front, and the Qing soldiers were not allowed to go home.As for Mingrui's subordinates, there are less than ten thousand people at this time, and everyone is extremely hungry, and their weapons are also seriously worn out.Mingrui ordered the whole army to break through, and he led hundreds of his own soldiers to break through. The fierce battle began like this.

The Burmese army ants flocked to them, and they planned to leave all these Qing soldiers behind. The Qing army roared hoarsely, and fought the Burmese soldiers with notched or broken knives and guns.But the trapped beasts still fight and resist, which cannot change the reality of this bloody massacre.The battle lasted for a whole day, and countless Qing soldiers blood-stained the jungle. Qianlong's confidant, Aijiang Guanyinbao, couldn't get out. Seeing the Burmese soldiers besieging him, he committed suicide in despair. However, Mingrui killed for another night, and at dawn, he was wounded all over his body, and he was full of energy, fighting fiercely, and broke out of the encirclement, and ran to Xiaomengyu.

This is a high ground, the last habitat that Mingrui chose for himself.Looking up and down, you can see the smoke from cooking in China.After seeing his hometown, Mingrui dismounted calmly, cut off his braids with his hands, and handed them over to the soldiers around him, asking them to take them back and give them to Qianlong: He, Mingrui, is that interesting? Mingrui hanged himself under a tree, the soldiers covered his body with dead leaves, and then rushed towards the border. Mingrui's death marked the second defeat in the Burmese campaign.Qianlong got the report, smashed like crazy, and ordered two military generals who had fled from Burma, a fellow-prefect Chen Yuanzhen, and a prefect Guo Pengchong. These two were Han Chinese whom Qianlong hated the most. Both were dragged to Caishikou in Beijing for the crime of missing the plane, where they were hacked for 3,600 knives.

Qianlong became ruthless, I must take down Burma, just like I took down Junggar! Pass the decree and call my brother-in-law. University scholar Fu Heng was ordered to conquer Burma three times.
