Now that the king has spoken, everyone else can only put away their inner feelings and obey the king's wishes.
After the meeting, Talon kept Thaksin rice.
He Xinmi is a minister he trusts and is even his good friend.
He said loudly: "If we fight against the Ming army, do you think there is really no chance of winning?"
He Xinmi replied: "Your Majesty, surrendering without a fight is obviously not possible, so it is a safe way to fight first and then talk about it.
However, judging from the intelligence obtained by my ministers, the Ming army's combat power is much stronger than ours.
Their firearms were more powerful and faster than the Portuguese's firearms before, and they also had artillery.
Naypyitaw was captured by the artillery that destroyed the city wall. " More than ten years ago, King Anahualon of Toungoo fought with the Portuguese and took back Shalian, which was occupied by the Portuguese.
The Portuguese firearms caused great losses to the Toungoo people.
Talong was shocked when he heard that the Ming army's firearms were actually more powerful than the Portuguese.
But he said harshly: "The Portuguese have powerful firearms.
Were they beaten away by us?
Even if the Ming army has stronger weapons than the Portuguese, it won't mean that we will not be able to fight."
He believed and said: "The weapons of the Ming army are powerful, and this is only one aspect.
The most important reason why we were able to defeat the Portuguese before was that there were too few Portuguese people.
The population of the Ming Dynasty was tens of millions, which was much larger than that of Taungyu.
It is bordering Taungoo, and with advanced weapons, Taungoo is no match for them.”
He Long nodded: "I actually understand that Portugal is too far away from us and Ming Dynasty is too close to us, but I am always unwilling to do so."
He believed: "The Mo family in Annan was helped by the Ming Dynasty, which ended the rule of the Zheng family.
Now the Ming Dynasty was granted the title of King of South Vietnam, and the Ruan family in the south was overwhelmed.
According to the officials, within ten years , The Ruan family will be defeated.
This is the difference between having the support of the Ming Dynasty and not having the support of the Ming Dynasty.
They encourage the king to become enemies of the Ming Dynasty, and they may not be imitating the Mo family."
He was horrified, and thought to himself that it was indeed possible.
If they succeeded, he would lose his throne and his head would not be saved, so he might as well surrender to the Ming Dynasty and keep his wealth.
"Then let's fight first.
As long as the situation is not good, I will immediately send people to see the Ming army and bow to the Ming Dynasty.
This is not the first time for us."
He smiled and said, "Your Majesty is far-sighted and I admire him."
The Ming army did not attack immediately when facing the tall city wall of Toungoo.
After setting up camp outside the city, the Ming army began to cut down trees and build a wooden bridge across the moat, and then pushed the artillery to the west gate.
The people of Dongxu watched the Ming army push the strange weapons in front of the west gate, still 600 steps away from the moat, and didn't understand what they were going to do.
At this time, the Ming army commander issued an order, and a solid bullet roared from the muzzle and hit the moat.
The people in Dongxu laughed loudly.
It turns out that this kind of thing can only reach the moat, so what threat can it pose?
At this time, the Ming army adjusted the muzzle of the cannon, and another shell was fired, hitting the suspension bridge in front of the west gate.
Because the suspension bridge was not lowered, the cannonball hit the center of the suspension bridge and made a big hole.
The laughter of the people in Dongxu stopped suddenly.
The suspension bridge was made of extremely thick wooden boards, and the Ming army actually drilled a hole in the suspension bridge.
If it hit a person, the result would be disastrous.
The Ming army replaced the shells with explosive shells, shifted the muzzle slightly, and hit the suspension bridge with a shell.
The suspension bridge began to burn, and the wood slowly deformed, and then fell into the moat.
The Ming army slowly pushed the artillery forward a hundred steps.
At this distance from the city, there was still no way to cause effective damage.
After the arrow flew for a while, it floated in front of the artillery and fell weakly.

The Ming army fired a kerosene bomb, which hit the city gate.
The people in Taungoo did not hear the sound of the shell exploding and were rejoicing.
At this time, the Ming army's explosive bombs came over, and with the violent explosion, the city gate began to burn.
At this time, other artillery bombs also began to bomb, and a shell fell on the west city gate tower, blowing the wooden building to pieces.
The Dongyu soldiers next to them were shot by shrapnel, and there were bursts of screams.
The people in Dongxu were shocked, and the people on the city wall quickly withdrew.
After a while, the artillery in the west city gate gradually extinguished, because the city gate was almost burned.
The artillery commander took a telescope and looked at the city gate hole carefully, and found a group of Toungu people on the other side of the city gate hole looking outside in amazement.
He ordered a squatting artillery to fire a shell.
The shell roared through the city gate and blew up all the Dongyu soldiers in the city.
Only then did the people from Toungoo realize that it was unsafe to stand here, so they quickly dispersed.
At this time, the white soldiers moved forward with the wooden bridge, put the wooden bridge on the original place of the suspension bridge, and then quickly retreated.
How could the Toungu people allow the Ming army to build a wooden bridge?
A group of Toungu soldiers rushed out from the city gate, holding hooks and crowbars in their hands, trying to destroy the wooden bridge.
A solid projectile shot over, sending the Taungoo man at the front flying, and then continued to roll forward, causing everyone it encountered to fall to the ground.
A group of Guardsmen rushed forward with guns in hand, stopped near the wooden bridge, and then began to fire.
They waited until the Toungu people ran out of the city gate and then opened fire together, knocking the Toungu people down beside the wooden bridge.
The people in Tounguu were afraid that the Ming army would rush into the city from the wooden bridge, so they could only send people out to destroy the wooden bridge.
The Ming army stood by the wooden bridge and used fire blunderbuss to harvest the lives of the people in Tounguu.
The sound of firecrackers echoed in the city gate along with the screams of the Dongxu people.
The Dongxu soldiers in the city had earth-colored faces, but they had to run out at the urging of the officers.
Ximen's situation was quickly reported to King Long, who quickly told him: "Hand out the white flag, we surrender to the Ming Dynasty."
A white flag was quickly raised in Toungu City.
When Lu Qin saw it, he ordered to postpone the attack, but the guards at the wooden bridge were still guarding there.
As long as the Toungu soldiers did not destroy the wooden bridge, they would ignore them.
After a while, Taxinmi came out with a few people and said: "I, Taungyu, are willing to be a vassal of the Ming Dynasty forever and guard the southern border for the Ming Dynasty."
Lu Qin ignored him.
Naturally, the guards came forward and said, "Let King Toungoo leave the city.
It is the decree of the Ming Emperor."
Thaksinmi quickly sent people into the city to inform King Talong, but King Talong had no choice but to summon his ministers to go out of the city and surrender.
Lu Qin took out the imperial edict and said: "Emperor Fengtian Chengyun issued an edict: The current king of Toungoo is specially appointed as the king of Myanmar.
The king of Myanmar will send the prince to the capital to accept the reward of the Ming Dynasty.
The entire territory of Myanmar will be temporarily taken over by the Ming Dynasty army.
The original Taungoo The army is disbanded on the spot, and the king of Burma can recruit a guard of 10,000 people."
He bowed and thanked him: "I obey your order
