Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Chapter 373 Missing Daxia’s tin robe

At the same time that Chulalongkorn was captured, there was also an ambush on the Dangji side of the Taungoo Kingdom and was about to begin.

However, this time, the ambushers were replaced by the Dongchuan Army, and the ambushed ones became tin robes.

At this time, the sky had darkened and it started to rain, causing the visibility to suddenly drop a lot.

The soldiers of the Dongchuan Army lay on the muddy ground, letting the rain beat on their bodies, and they remained motionless.

I don’t know how long it took, but finally some bright lights appeared in the distance, as well as the sound of a car engine.

Hearing this voice, everyone knew that the rightful owner they were waiting for had arrived.

At this time, in that convoy were indeed Xipao and others.

Xipao was sitting in the back seat of a car, his whole body swaying from side to side with the bumps of the car.

At this time, Xipao felt a little impetuous in his heart. On the one hand, it was because he felt a little uncomfortable after being swaying in the car for a long time.

On the other hand, it is because his country is losing ground.

He felt that since he was the king of Taungoo, he should be high and mighty.

However, since the Third Anglo-Burmese War, King Toungoo has become a puppet, at the mercy of the John people.

You can do whatever you want, at least in the Toungoo Kingdom, he can still maintain the face of the king no matter what.

But I don’t know where this John guy went wrong. He insisted on provoking Daxia, but he was beaten to pieces by Daxia and even hurt himself.

In fact, as one of the four Southeast Asian countries, Toungoo Kingdom, Xipao knew much more about Daxia than the people of John Kingdom.

His father's generation, or his father's generation, went back several thousand and eight hundred years, and everyone knew Daxia very well.

Toungoo has always been a vassal state of Daxia. Under the protection of Daxia, the four Southeast Asian countries have always lived a very high life.

Although occasionally there will be friction between countries, but with Daxia pressing down on it, it is difficult for such friction to turn into a war.

It can be said that during the hundreds of years under the protection of Daxia, the people of the four Southeast Asian countries actually lived very well.

Daxia is more like a parent to these four countries, and they are Daxia's children.

No matter whether they encounter a rebellion or a natural or man-made disaster in their own country, as long as they cannot solve it themselves, they will directly send people to Daxia.

Cry in front of the Emperor of Daxia, and the Emperor of Daxia will help you solve it.

And all he has to pay is to regard the Daxia Empire as his master.

In addition to this, every few years, someone is sent to Daxia to bring some local specialties to greet the emperor.

When the envoy came back, the Emperor of Daxia gave a large sum of money to various countries.

The total amount of this money is often more than half of their annual tax revenue.

This is why the empire has such a high reputation in Southeast Asia.

A big brother who can help you solve problems and doesn't need your money will protect you. As long as the king does not seek death, their kingdom will continue to exist and the people will be rich.

For such a Daxia Empire, no one would dislike him.

Therefore, both the former Goryeo and the people of the four Southeast Asian countries were proud to speak Chinese and write Chinese characters.

As long as they are scholars, there is no one who cannot memorize a few lines from the holy scriptures of the great Xia sages.

But all this changed after the arrival of the Johns.

At that time, the empire's national power declined due to some reasons, which gave the John Empire and the Gallic Empire an opportunity.

Thinking of this, Xipao looked at the car in front of him with some hatred.

The person sitting in that car was Major General Vertin.

My country has become like this, and I have endured such a big crime, all because of this damn Vertin.

Just when Xipao was still cursing Vertin, he suddenly saw three bright lights rising into the sky in front of him.

Then, he felt that everything around him became very bright.

Then, there were whistling and explosions in his ears, as well as some very unfamiliar whistles.

Then the John people who were escorting them became very chaotic, and there was a sound of gunfire and cannons.

Seeing this situation, no matter how stupid Xi Pao was, he knew that he had been ambushed.

And who ambushed him, this identity is also coming out.

But what makes Xipao confused is where did this group of Daxia troops come from?

The news I heard from Major General Wilding before was that the Daxia Army closest to them was still in Bago, which was still more than 120 kilometers away from Yangon.

How did they get here? Is there really some magic weapon descending from heaven?

Xi Pao couldn't figure it out. He knew that the so-called divine soldiers descending from the sky was just a description, not a verb. There were no myths and stories in this world.

These Daxia people must have some means that can allow them to march quickly, but he doesn't know this method yet.

However, one thing he knew very well was that he couldn't stay where he was.

Who knows if a cannonball will fall next to him and blow him up?

Moreover, looking at the current situation on the battlefield, the John people seem to be a little overwhelmed with themselves. It is somewhat unrealistic to rely on them to escape from the battlefield.

At the same time, looking at the Daxia army so close at hand, a crazy move suddenly occurred in Xipao's mind.

If he ran in front of Daxia's army and claimed that everything he was doing now was because of the coercion of John's people, would Daxia forgive him?

With Daxia's forgiveness or support, can I restore the Toungoo Kingdom to its previous state?

Xipao had experienced the days under the protection of Daxia, which were stable and peaceful days.

He missed it very much and longed for it.

In the past, the Daxia people were far away from me. Even if I wanted to change, I couldn't get close to Daxia. But now, the Daxia people's army is right beside me.

Do you want to give it a try yourself?

Thinking of this, Xipao's heart became more and more hot and eager.

After an explosion, Xipao finally made up his mind, and a trace of ferocity appeared on his face.

"Drive!" Xipao held a small pistol in his hand, lowered his voice, and said to the driver.

The driver was actually scared. He suddenly heard Xi Pao asking him to drive, but he didn't react for a moment.

"Drive? Where to go?" The driver turned his head and looked at the tin robe in the rear seat with a puzzled look.

"Go through the battlefield and go to the Daxia Army!" Xipao pointed out where to go to the driver.

"Ah?" When the driver heard that he was going to the Daxia people, he didn't react for a moment.

"I let you drive!" Xipao pointed the pistol in his hand directly at the driver's head and shouted loudly.

This time, under the threat of death, the driver's brain did not shut down. He directly stepped on the accelerator, and the car suddenly jumped forward.

Queen Taungoo next to Xipao was a little nervous. She reached out and held Xipao's hand.

At this time, she discovered that Xipao was actually trembling all over his body, and his palms were sweaty.

She didn't know if Xipao was nervous or excited at this time, or was he excited?

Maybe there are all three.
