"Da da da…"
Ever since this sound started to sound, the Burmese soldiers who were originally hesitating in front of the wall of fire were like being cut by a sickle like leeks. They were put down to the ground one after another, either wailing and bleeding or having their limbs broken and no sound.
"What's this…"
For the Burmese people who had never heard of or seen a machine gun, everything seemed so terrifying.
"It's the devil...it's the devil's weapon. They have the devil's weapon. We can't win. Run away..."
At this time, someone in the Burmese army shouted and ran back.
For things that are completely based on their own cognition, the backward Burmese people can only blame the gods and ghosts.
Accompanied by shouts, some members of the Burmese army on the right began to flee.
Before the war supervisors could react, the rout quickly spread. No one had the intention to continue fighting, and everyone ran back.
But it was not easy for most of them to retreat. The infantry was a little better and could run away at once, but the elephants sitting down by the elephant soldiers easily became targets of firepower.
The huge elephants were originally the weapons of the Burmese army to rampage on the battlefield, but now they can only fall down one after another without any power to fight back.
As the army was defeated, the completely frightened elephants did not care about the infantry around them. Under their rampage, many infantrymen fell at the feet of the elephant soldiers.
…
"Failed...completely defeated..."
The right-wing elephant-step mixed force that Yong Jiya had high hopes for was defeated like this. Yong Jiya knew that he had failed in this battle.
"Ming Jin, withdraw the troops..." After giving the order, Yong Ji left the battlefield without looking back.
"Dang...dangdang..."
The sound of Myanmar's gold ringing sounded, and the already demoralized Myanmar army seemed to have received an amnesty. Many people even dropped their weapons and ran back as hard as they could.
…
"Haha... You are so vulnerable that you dare to be unreasonable to our emperor like this. I really don't know how to write the word "death". Order, let the Burmese army chase the enemy, and at the same time let the Burmese spies get out." On the Yijun position, the commander Captain Hao Dewei laughed and gave the order.
"yes…"
At this time, the Yi Dynasty Burmese Army who had been watching the battle could not have imagined that the Yi Army's army would be so powerful in combat effectiveness. So many enemies were defeated without being able to even touch their sides.
Especially the army of the Central Army of Yi Dynasty. The enemy was as huge as the tide of the river, but in the end they only broke through a low wall and a trench.
"It's just hiding behind and shooting. It seems that fighting is not a terrible thing." Many members of the Burmese army in Yi Dynasty thought to themselves.
Of course, they naturally only think about it from the perspective of the Yi army. As for what kind of hell on earth the Burmese army on the opposite side is encountering, they will not pay attention to it.
…
"Brothers, the enemy has been repulsed, and the rest of the pursuit is left to us. Now rush forward and kill them all, and get military merit." After the general of the Burmese Army in Yichao said a word of mobilization, he led his team and rushed forward. .
"Kill..."
The deafening shouts of killing in Burmese came from behind, making some of the fleeing Burmese troops confused about what was going on. Some even stopped and watched out of curiosity.
"Kneel down, everyone kneel down, surrender and avoid death..."
As the thick Burmese sounds came, many Burmese soldiers who were overtaken and prepared for a desperate struggle knelt down and surrendered without hesitation.
After all, we are one of our own
…
After dusk, night comes quietly.
In September, autumn, the weather in Myanmar is still as hot as fire.
The fall of night brings a rare coolness during the day, and the mountain breeze blows through, making people feel refreshed. Of course, it would be better if there were fewer mosquitoes.
Myanmar military camp, in the commander's tent
At this time, Yong Jiya was going back and forth with his hands behind his back, and there was no expression on his face.
A group of civil servants and generals gathered in the tent camp.
In this battle, the Burmese army suffered a disastrous defeat. Even though Yong Ji Ya ordered the troops to retreat and the army provided cover for the retreat, the Burmese army still suffered casualties of nearly 6,000 people. It is unknown how many of them were captured and how many were lost.
The Yi army on the opposite side suffered almost zero casualties. Even if Myanmar initially fought against the Qing Dynasty, it had never achieved such a record. Generally speaking, this time the Burmese army suffered an unprecedented defeat since Yong Ji Ya went to war.
"Your Majesty, I believe that the most important reason for our army's defeat this time is that the Yi army's firearms are too powerful. However, this does not mean that the Yi army is invincible." General Gong Naiya, as the main combatant, saw this and At this time, I can only bite the bullet and come out to report.
"You must know that the most important thing about firearms is logistical supplies. If there is no gunpowder, then the Yijun's firearms are nothing more than an iron rod, no matter how powerful they are. So I think that as long as we can harass their logistical supplies, they will have no gunpowder by then. , then our army will succeed in the first battle."
Yong Jiya can naturally understand Gong Naiya's words.
However, how much gunpowder does Yijun still have? They did not know that if the war continued as it was today, it would be difficult for his army to fight a few more battles.
"General Gong Naiya's words are very good, but have you ever thought about how many lives of our soldiers can be used by the Yi army to consume gunpowder? I think that we should ask for peace from the Yi Dynasty." A peace minister came out. retorted.
"Lord Neva said it was easy. If you surrender, do you have to cede a large area of land like Siam and pay a lot of money and food?" Nuozimi, another general who led the battle, looked at the minister Neva with disdain and said.
"Otherwise, what should you do? Can you win against others? So what if you can win here? Others still have armies from several countries." Neva asked impolitely.
"They can bring other countries and we can also ask for help from the Manchu and Qing Dynasties. Isn't the Manchu and Qing Dynasty still our suzerain country? Can they just sit back and ignore it?" Nuozimi said angrily.
"Yes, the Manchu Qing Dynasty did send two thousand people over, but now they are working in other people's prisoner camps." Neva laughed with a look on his face.
"Then ask for help again. The Manqing will definitely not lose face!" Nuozimi continued.
"Under normal circumstances, they might ignore us, but it is also experiencing internal strife. How many troops can be mobilized to help us? Didn't you notice that even when the Yi army entered Yunnan, they turned a blind eye? Close one eye. So don't count on the Qing Dynasty, let's sue for peace while we still have the strength to fight!" Although Neva said to Nuo Zimi, his eyes were looking at Yong Jiya.
If Neva had dared to say such explicit words before, Yong Jiya would have pushed Neva out and beheaded him without mercy. But obviously, these words were what the civil servant group wanted to say to him, so Yong Jiya had to think carefully.
To serve the country with greatness and to serve the country with strength is the purpose of a small country. Therefore, it does not seem to be a shameful thing for Myanmar to surrender to the powerful Yi Dynasty.
It's just that if Myanmar sues for peace with the Yi Dynasty, then Yong Jiya's ambitions may not be realized in his lifetime.
The Yi Dynasty will never want to see a strong Myanmar again, so Myanmar will definitely be severely weakened after suing for peace this time, and it will be difficult to stand up again within a hundred years.
But if it does not seek peace, is it possible for Myanmar to defeat its enemies? Even Yong Jiya is no longer confident.
