When Deng Ming tried his best to establish the Myanmar cooperative government, Bai Wenxuan's march in Hexi caused a lot of trouble for him. Wherever the Yunnan Army passed, like locusts crossing the border, a large number of people fled, and the temples were burned one after another. Although the strong combat power shown by the Ming army made the Burmese people frightened and could not have the intention to resist, after seeing the temple they respected were destroyed and their homes were ravaged, the Burmese people's anger also grew, and they spontaneously developed the fighting spirit of fighting against the Ming army.

Although Hedong was not harassed by the Sichuan army, the tragic situation in Hexi also caused the Burmese people in the east to panic. Many monks came to complain to Deng Ming and issued tactful protests at the same time.

"King Gongchang is not a devout Buddhist, but I am different." Deng Ming had to explain repeatedly that the culprit was Mangbai. Bai Wenxuan and his army were both very loyal subjects of the Emperor Yongli. Now their respect for the Buddhist temple was completely overwhelmed by their worries about the fate of the Emperor and their anger towards Mangbai.

While working hard to cultivate Myanmar collaborators, Deng Ming also told Bai Wenxuan and others about the establishment of the Burmese King. Deng Ming originally wanted the envoy to tell him about this matter, but after thinking about it, he thought it would be better to go there by himself. So Deng Ming put the work at hand and found time to cross Lijiang again to chase Bai Wenxuan and others.

The impostor made Bai Wenxuan and Di Sanxi laugh for a while. The two of them also felt that doing so would be too disrespectful to the royal family, so Deng Ming explained it seriously. After all, the Ming army was an invading army. As long as the Burmese people with a little knowledge, they could guess that most of the Ming army would not be able to stay in Myanmar for a long time. Since the Ming army could not support Myanmar collaborators for a long time, no one would dare to stand up and cooperate with the Ming army.

Therefore, it is not only necessary to support a Myanmar government that is pro-Ming Dynasty, but also extremely urgent and cannot be delayed. In addition to time considerations, choosing to be reckless as the Burmese King also has other benefits.

"Since ancient times, if the king's throne is either inherited, it is obtained by conquest and killing." Deng Ming pointed out that Mang Yinglong seized the throne of Myanmar by force, and his descendants were regarded as the legitimate successors of the Tou Dynasty: "If we support a true descendant of Mang Yinglong as the throne of Myanmar, he will not always be grateful to us. Sooner or later he will think that this is his rightful property and regard us as a robber, and he is also justified in the hearts of the Burmese people. If we support Pang Gao as the king, let alone the human heart issues, he will probably be another Mang Yinglong after he has firmly taken this position in the future, and he will be justified in the time when his descendants inherit it."

"Now, Manglu is not the heir of Mang Yinglong, but he is sitting in a position where only Mang Yinglong's descendants can sit. Haha, General Deng is very calculating, he is unreliable on both sides." Bai Wenxuan said Deng Ming's words several times and finally figured out Deng Ming's plan: Just like the founding emperor of China, no one can question his throne's illegality, and his descendants have gained legality because of inheritance rights; but if a person is neither the royal family of the Ming Dynasty, nor the founding country by himself, and insists on claiming to be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, then his status will be a bit embarrassing.

"Now we don't need to let the Burmese people know what's going on. If Ranglu and his father have different thoughts in the future, we can make a fuss about this matter." Deng Ming also told Bai Wenxuan about his agreement with the religious figures in Myanmar, and hoped that they would open a glimpse of the temples that supported the Ming army.

Although Bai Wenxuan felt that the Ming army did not need the assistance of these monks, he also admitted that Deng Ming’s statement made sense. If the pro-Ming Dynasty government in Myanmar could stand firm, it would be a very beneficial thing for Yunnan. At least Li Dingguo didn’t have to worry about the threat from the south: “But in this way, will the traitor of Mangbai be detrimental to the emperor?”

Yongli must be safe and sound, which is the consensus of the Ming army. In particular, Bai Wenxuan takes this matter more seriously. If Yongli has a few good and two bad things, his reputation will probably be on the head of Xiying.

"There should be no danger. With Rulu, we have more bargaining chips. Mangbai may negotiate with us. Maybe he will propose exchange conditions. If we do not support Rulu, he will return the emperor to us." Deng Ming believes that as long as the Burmese court is not a fool, he can understand that this newly established Rulu government is their life-and-death enemy. The Ming army will not be able to compete with the Burmese King for the rule of this land in the short term, but this new government can.

"Does General Deng plan to negotiate with Mangbai?" Bai Wenxuan remembered that Deng Ming had said that he had signed an agreement with Burmese monks, and also promised them with confidence that Mangbai would be deposed.

"Mangbai is the descendant of Mang Yinglong, and he is also under house arrest. It is too dangerous to keep him. Besides, I promised the monks in Myanmar." After several years of negotiation and training, Deng Ming's understanding of politics no longer stayed at the time of traveling through time. Zhou Peigong explored the rules through practice, while Deng Ming tested the theory through practice: "Our ultimate goal is to depose Mangbai, which does not mean that we will do it to the end; if Mangbai honestly returns the emperor to us and handed over all the criminals who insulted officials and women's relatives to us to execute, then we may consider letting his son inherit the throne, and to divide the country in northern Myanmar and southern Myanmar. Before we expel the Tartars, it would be great if Myanmar was united together, and no one could eat anyone, and then no one would come to trouble us."

Bai Wenxuan felt that he could not keep up with Deng Ming's ideas. If Zhou Peigong was here, he might be able to understand Deng Ming, Jiang Guozhu, Liang Huafeng and others who had seen Deng Ming's competition mechanism well should have been able to wake up quickly, but Bai Wenxuan became more and more confused as he listened.

Seeing that Bai Wenxuan began to be confused, Deng Ming stopped discussing further and explained again before leaving: "There are many monks in the temples in Hedong who are willing to assist us, and General Bai is merciless."

"Well, okay, anyway, there are always people who have to sing red faces in the opera, and some people who sing black faces. Since General Deng sings red faces, I will reluctantly sing this black face." Anyway, Deng Ming does not interfere with Bai Wenxuan's robbery, and it is his business to Deng Ming be willing to deal with his territory. Bai Wenxuan said generously: "I will definitely not let my men go to Hedong."

"I heard General Bai say this, it seems like he suffered a great loss." Deng Ming laughed and bowed to Bai Wenxuan and Di Sanxi.

On the way back and forth, Deng Ming seized the time to draft a religious protection bill, in which all the privileges enjoyed by Chinese gentry were granted to temples in Myanmar, and the right of the Burmese king to the upper class of society was restricted.

Even if Mangbai refused to repent and forced the Ming army to support Mangru to destroy him, as long as Myanmar could implement this set of rules, it would not be a big problem for China. If you want to make the people disunited, the best way is to work hard to create rather than eliminate social injustice, and a huge privileged group emerged. Deng Ming also helped the new Myanmar government formulate a set of speech control laws, emphasizing that the Rude government is now facing a survival crisis, so it is strictly forbidden to comment on the government, and any complaints will be severely punished.

"Why did Emperor Wen of Han abolish the crime of slandering and evil words? Because officials can use this crime to threaten the people and not allow others to discuss the shameful things they do. Although corrupt officials are shameless, they are willing to do but not want to be scolded. If the people have any discussion, they have to restrain themselves a little. If there are more people talking about it, the atmosphere may change, and corrupt officials will not dare to be unscrupulous." Deng Ming gave the officers the laws formulated by helping the new government of Myanmar to the officers, and at the same time frankly told them their intentions and purposes: "So the people in Myanmar cannot be allowed to discuss the gains and losses of the government. Any slandering and evil words must be severely punished."

This measure is very beneficial for stabilizing the rule. As far as Deng Ming knows, in his previous life, the Qing Dynasty relied on this move to consolidate his regime. Hundreds of years later, many people were seeking death because of cutting their braids, and determined that those who advocated overthrowing the Qing regime were the two Japanese devils who forgot their ancestors.

"As long as the new Myanmar government investigates bans and slander, coupled with our military assistance, it should be able to be fast and stable." Deng Ming made such a judgment on his subordinates. However, it suspended dialogue and exchanges between various social classes and blocked the last path to eliminating social injustice. When such a country encounters a powerful foreign enemy, it should be "haha, hahaha". The situation in Deng Ming's previous life in the late Qing Dynasty was not difficult to understand at all. It is not strange that the dog legs everywhere are everywhere: "This kind of law must not be used in our Sichuan, it is specially prepared for vassals outside China."

...

After Bai Yajian threw all the field troops in northern Myanmar, Bai Wenxuan went straight to Awa without any obstacles, and never encountered any resistance along the way. After learning that Deng Ming was still pacifying the monks in the rear, Bai Wenxuan was in a better mood. The captives all said that there were many wealthy families in Awa City, and the palace of the Burmese King was even more famous as a golden palace. There were rumors that it was paved with gold bricks.

Since Deng Ming did not follow, Bai Wenxuan was embarrassed to take the Yunnan Army to the city first to make a fortune.

"I had known that the Burmese people were so vulnerable, so I should have come long ago. The soldiers suffered little losses, and I could still bring back a large amount of military expenses to the King of Jin." Bai Wenxuan became happier as he thought about it. The things he got from Myanmar this time were not saved in Yunnan for several years, and it was not included such a large treasure as Awa, which had not yet been dug.

"With such a little ability, he dares to kidnap the emperor and plunder my noble lady." Bai Wenxuan sneered repeatedly. He really didn't know whether he should hate Mangbai or be grateful to him.

When he heard that the Burmese envoys came to the camp to ask for a visit, Bai Wenxuan's first thought was that Awa came to ask for surrender. King Gongchang sat upright in his position with a golden sword. He had already thought about the conditions for surrender to the Burmese people, that is, Mangbai would surrender himself and let the Ming army take over the Myanmar capital Awa. If Mangbai disagreed, it would be okay, then Bai Wenxuan would attack the city. Anyway, he would have settled in Awa City.
