After a night of love, Liu Ruyun was reluctantly persuaded by Xiao Chenshu... It's okay not to marry me for the time being. Let's talk about it after I become the King of Southern Xinjiang. Hum, if you ignore me now, I will let you climb high in the future. Sorry!
Don’t you have many women? It doesn't matter, I can also have many men. When the time comes, I will marry three thousand beautiful men to serve as beauties in the harem, leaving only one queen for you...
However, the fact that Xiao Chen was the consort of Burma was basically confirmed. The princes and ministers such as Mount Ganu, Doma and others also knew this, and treated him as courtiers when they saw him again.
In fact, they all hope that Xiao Chen will be the consort of Myanmar. After all, Xiao Chen has done merit and kindness to Myanmar. He once saved the life of the old king of Myanmar, and this in turn saved the life of the new queen. If it weren't for him, would the queen have been able to do it? It would be a problem to come back and take the throne. If that were the case, Myanmar would have been in chaos long ago!
So when Liu Ruyun announced that Yanyun County would be stationed in Myanmar, no one showed much surprise. Instead, they thought it was appropriate.
But when Liu Ruyun mentioned that he was going to attack Siam, everyone was completely surprised.
But if you think about it carefully, it is actually expected.
Siam's recruitment of troops is aimed at their Burmese country. The two countries have long-standing grievances. Sooner or later, there will be a war. It's just a matter of sooner or later.
The problem now is that Myanmar may have to face the dilemma of fighting on two fronts, because once it starts a war with Siam, it is afraid that the Zhou soldiers from the north will take advantage of the situation and invade! How to resist?
This is how Siam was wiped out by Li Wanyun...
"How many soldiers and horses does Siam have now?" Xiao Chen sounded like the boss.
"When I came back to the Prince Consort, it was said to be eight hundred thousand, but it was actually five hundred thousand." Ganushan said hurriedly.
"They were beaten so hard by Li Wanyun two years ago that they were restricted to only have 50,000 soldiers. I don't believe that they suddenly had 500,000 soldiers in just a few years?" Xiao Chen said.
"The soldiers are about the same. They are nothing more than forcibly recruited, but there are not many of them who are accustomed to fighting. In the battle with Li Wanyun a few years ago, basically all of them were killed or injured." Ganushan said.
"Forcibly recruiting troops is tantamount to asking for self-destruction." Xiao Chen said, "How many troops do we have on the eastern border?"
"Uh..." Jianushan couldn't answer easily and looked at Liu Ruyun.
"Tell him, didn't you hear that his tone sounded like King Burmese?" Liu Ruyun said angrily.
"I think one hundred thousand elite soldiers is enough." Xiao Chen said, "I will give you another twenty thousand elite soldiers and one hundred battleships."
"To whom?" Ganushan was stunned, "To me?"
"Aren't you the Grand Marshal of the Army of Myanmar?" Xiao Chen said with a smile, "If I don't give it to you, who else can I give it to?"
"Your Majesty?" Jianushan glared at Liu Ruyun, is there something between you two that we don't know about yet?
"Why don't you want what they give you?" Liu Ruyun said, "From now on, these 20,000 troops and 100 warships will all be under your command."
"Is it command or cooperation?" Ganushan doesn't believe that there is such a good thing in the world?
"It's the commander." Xiao Chen said, "They changed their positions as soon as they arrived. From now on, they will be soldiers of your Burma country and have nothing to do with my Yanyun County anymore."
"It can't be said that it has nothing to do with it. You still need to provide logistical supplies. Otherwise, if there are so many more troops and horses suddenly coming, how can I have so much food, grass and military pay?" Liu Ruyun said.
"Okay, that's it..." Since Xiao Chen is generous, he will be generous to the end, "I'll send you ten more large cargo ships."
"Doma, pinch me for a while," Ganushan said. "Try harder. I suspect I'm dreaming."
"The Prince Consort always sticks to his word when he speaks." Duoma smiled, "So even if it is a dream, it is a beautiful dream, so there is no need to wake up."
"I don't think I need to supply food and grass, but I am responsible for all armaments. I can provide enough equipment to equip 30,000 people, including war horses, mule carts, armored chariots, armor, weapons, and artillery. Musket..." Xiao Chen's next words really made Jianu Shan immersed in it and didn't want to wake up.
"You don't have to look at me like this." Xiao Chen said, "Ruyun and I are a family, so naturally we, Yanyun and Myanmar, are also a family. If we are a family, we don't talk about two families. I will help you , it’s the same as helping myself, but there’s no intrigue, and there’s no need to be on your own terms!”
"But war is only a means, and the goal is peace. I personally suggest that Myanmar adopt a strategy of distant diplomacy and close attack. Siam is too close and the desire to destroy us must be solved completely. It is not to conquer, but to kill them. Let them You can never turn over again, and you will definitely be troubled forever!"
"Destroying Siam, Java, Chenla, and Funan will definitely shock the other countries. They will no longer dare to be our enemies and will have no choice but to surrender. Therefore, this battle can only be won but not lost. The stability of southern Xinjiang for the next hundred years depends entirely on This battle is over, and after this battle, we can stand firm in the southern border, compete with Zhou and Tianzhu, and become a tripartite force."
"This is just my humble opinion. What do you think, Your Majesty?" After Xiao Chen spoke at length, he asked Liu Ruyun.
"You've already said it and I'm still talking nonsense!" Liu Ruyun was angry because what Xiao Chen said was very reasonable. This guy's far-sighted vision, knowledge, and decisive methods seemed to be even higher than mine...
"I'm just talking on paper. It's hard to predict how the situation will develop. If Your Majesty hadn't personally presided over the overall situation and strategized, these words of mine would be nothing more than farts." Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Prince-in-law, what should happen if Zhou soldiers go south?" Jianushan knows the situation in Siam very well and is confident to defeat them. Now that Xiao Chen is helping, victory is basically guaranteed. His only worry now is Jiuxi North territory.
"First of all, we still have 200,000 troops in Jiuxi. If Zhou wants to attack us, he has to think carefully. Secondly, we must win this battle quickly. We will finish it before Zhou can react. , by then it will be too late for them to send troops." Xiao Chen said.
The main focus is a quick victory and surprise.
"I can transport 20,000 troops and equipment by freighter. Anyway, our two families have always had trade relations, so Luoduo and the others will not be suspicious. But if more than a hundred warships come, the noise will be loud. It has to pass through the Malacca Strait, which is difficult to hide." Xiao Chen said.
"It won't be difficult if someone helps." Liu Ruyun suddenly said.
"You mean my brother, right?" Xiao Chen smiled, "I don't know if he is willing to help?"
"This brother of yours is very ambitious and suspicious. I'm afraid he won't help." Liu Ruyun said with a smile, "But I think there is always a way to convince him."
"If it is this person, then only His Majesty and the Prince Consort can persuade him in person." Ganushan said. "If he doesn't give you two face, then the only way is to let Doma go in person."
"Actually, you can just let me go." Duoma smiled gloomily, "Xiao Quanzi always said that the harem is short of manpower. I think this person is quite suitable to be a eunuch."
