The first thousand one hundred and ninety-five chapters confrontation or cooperation

Gao Jin had a short set, his sleeves were only half of his arms, and his arms were naked outside. His face was now a little darker. His long hair was wrapped in a piece of cloth, and he was sweating profusely cutting firewood. It seemed that he was taller, but he was not much different from the natives in Burma.

He raised the axe to the top of his head and then went downward. The raised wooden stake was directly split into two pieces by Gao Jin. Then Gao Jin cut the two pieces into four pieces, bent over and picked them up and put them aside.

After wiping a handful of sweat, looking at the firewood piled beside him, Gao Jin nodded with satisfaction, put down his axe and turned toward the bamboo building not far away.

This bamboo building is Gao Jin's "mansion". In places like Myanmar, the air is humid and the weather is hot, and ordinary buildings do not adapt to the local climate, so this bamboo building is the most suitable for living.

Although Gao Jin was the leader and the leader of the White Lotus Sect, after entering Myanmar, he did not stand out as high as ordinary superiors, but did his own work. Not only did he build a bamboo building himself, but he did even some daily things himself.

"Prince, drink a bowl of tea to relieve the heat." Seeing that Gao Jin had finished chopping firewood, the personal guards brought him a cup of tea with a long time ago. The tea was cold. Not only did the tea leaves come with tea, but some local herbs were added, which was the most suitable for cooling off.

He took the tea bowl and took a sip. Gao Jin breathed comfortably and said thank you at the same time.

The personal guards have been following Gao Jin for many years, and naturally know Gao Jin's character and habits. They smiled and said, "Zhang Xiangye and the others will come later. Prince, do you want to change your clothes?"

"No need, I'm not an outsider. Just bring me a basin of water to scrub it." Gao Jin said casually. The guard hurriedly brought the basin of water to help Gao Jin scrub it. After sweating, Gao Jin felt much more comfortable, and then went to the bamboo building.

"Husband."

Hearing the footsteps, Wang Ling'er was carrying the child, Wang Wan'er looked up and saw Gao Jin coming up. She quickly smiled and said, and she wanted to get up to greet her.

"No need to get up, you are all pregnant again, it's inconvenient to have a heavy body." Gao Jin waved his hand and said. When he approached, he saw his child looking up at him with a smile. Gao Jin happily reached out to pick up the child and teased him, which attracted a burst of cheerful laughter from the child.

After a while, he put down the child and continued to let the sisters look at it, then said, "Zhang Miao and Madam Lin come here later, I will go to the big house first."

"Husband, is it a matter of going south?" Wang Wan'er asked.

Gao Jin nodded: "After more than a year, my brothers have adapted to the climate here one after another. We can't always stay here. It is necessary to go south."

"Husband, can you go south with you?" Wang Ling'er asked expectantly.

Gao Jin shook his head and said, "Didn't you say it before? You are inconvenient and you are still taking your children. Let's stay here for the time being. Besides, although the brothers are a little adaptable to the climate here, Myanmar is not as dense as the Central Plains, with dense forests and miasma. After the army completely takes over the entire Myanmar, I will send someone to pick you up."

Wang Ling'er was a little disappointed, and Wang Wan'er was the same. As Gao Jin's wife, they really hoped to be with Gao Jin, but Gao Jin was right. They have bodies now and are not suitable for following the army. Moreover, the climate in Myanmar is not suitable for pregnant women to recuperate, so it is more appropriate to stay here and wait for the results.

After comforting the two, Gao Jin went to the big house next to him. It was said that it was a big house, which was actually a relatively large room separated by a bamboo building. This room was used by Gao Jin to meet his subordinates and study rooms on weekdays, and it was also a place he used to plan.

In the big house, a map was hung on the bamboo wall. Although the map was simple, it outlined the shape of the entire Myanmar, as well as the locations of some important roads from north to south of Myanmar.

For this map, Gao Jin lost more than a dozen scouts in the past year. Many of these scouts died not because of the attacks from Myanmar, but because of the terrain, climate and dangerous forests in Myanmar.

Although Myanmar is not big, it is not small. What’s more important is that Myanmar’s unique environment makes it difficult to launch a large-scale war in Myanmar. Especially in the central and northern regions, there are forests everywhere. Whether it is miasma or dangerous animals and plants in the forest, people can be killed by accident.

It is not accurate to say that Gao Jin entered Myanmar from Yunnan. To be precise, it should be in the northeast of Myanmar. According to the terrain of Myanmar, the most suitable route to march is not to go south directly or march west, because these two roads cannot avoid the Wild Man Mountain at all.

The reason why Wild Man Mountain in Myanmar is called Wild Man Mountain is because of the continuous and continuous primeval forests and the area where a small number of Tu people live, making it extremely difficult for outsiders to survive in this kind of place.

During World War II, the Chinese Expeditionary Force retreated to Myanmar by going to the Wild Man Mountain to retreat to the country. This retreat can be said to be full of corpses. Only a small number of troops finally retreated, and even the commander almost died in Wild Man Mountain. This can be seen from this point that the difficulty of this road is evident.

Gao Jin once tried the Wild Man Mountain, but after hearing the description of the scout who fled back from the mountain, Gao Jin rejected this path of progress. So after thinking about it, Gao Jin finally chose to advance north first, then bypass the Wild Man Mountain from north, directly capture the upper reaches of the Irrawaddy River, then descended from the Irrawaddy River, and took straight to central and southern Myanmar, and then took the capital Awa with superior forces, thus determining the fate of Myanmar.

From a tactical perspective, this route is the most suitable. Although it requires a detour, it is much safer than traveling to the Wild Mountains. In addition, the Irrawaddy River is the largest river running through the north and south of Myanmar. The essence of Myanmar is on both sides of the river. Whether it is a capital or a big city, they are all on Gao Jin's marching route. They directly fight with Gao Jin's military strength, Myanmar cannot resist it at all.

But the problem is that fighting Myanmar is very simple, and Gao Jin is confident that he can decide the world with one battle. However, in addition to the Touo Dynasty, Myanmar also has other foreign forces.

At first, Portugal invaded Myanmar and was finally expelled by the Toho dynasty. Decades ago, the Netherlands and Britain entered Myanmar one after another, and then France also intervened in Myanmar, establishing colonial companies in southern Myanmar respectively to monopolize trade.

To gain control of Myanmar, the Tohoku Dynasty is not a powerful opponent. Gao Jin, who has been preparing for more than a year, has great confidence to directly take down Myanmar and destroy the Tohoku Dynasty. However, facing the existence of the three Western countries such as Britain, the Netherlands and France in Myanmar, Gao Jin had not yet thought about how to solve it. Is it better to rely on strength to directly drive away the other party, or to negotiate with the other party for exchange of interests?

So today Zhang Miao and Lady Lin came here, on the one hand, to discuss the details of sending troops, and on the other hand, to discuss the attitude towards Western countries. This is a major event and represents the foundation of the Gao Jin regime's future rule in Myanmar. Gao Jin is not careless at all.
