The contact between the Kingdom of Kokang and the British colonial government was soon launched. The Kingdom of Kokang proposed to the Myanmar colonial government that Britain must completely withdraw from Myanmar to make the Burmese people independent in order to release the captured British army.

The British Myanmar Colonial Government authorities tried to temporarily divide the boundaries and rule, and then launched a comprehensive counterattack against the Kokang Kingdom when the local government was withdrawn from the war.

It is impossible for European colonies to give up.

However, international national independence in this era was not strong, and international capital did not begin to support independence, making colonial independence seem unreliable.

However, the captives of nearly 6,000 local soldiers from the Kokang Kingdom made the Myanmar colonial authorities very hesitant.

Of course, independence is no way to go.

Myanmar colonial authorities rejected the demand for independence, but instead put forward a request to the Jessa area as the boundary.

The Jiesha area is located in northern Myanmar and is still a certain distance from the prosperous river valley area. At this time, the actual control of the Kokang Kingdom was not only a few.

The kingdom of Kokang also put forward the requirements for painting circles, and the east branch must be used as the horizontal line. From the east to the west to the north, they belong to the territory of Kokang Kingdom, while the south is from Britain.

There is no room for change for the Kokang Kingdom, because only from the Taung Chi painting world can you obtain a port to the western Myanmar.

As long as there is a port, it is a very good and important link for the Kingdom of Kokang itself and China.

With Myanmar's ports, there is no need to worry that the Strait of Malacca will be blocked.

Of course, at this time, the Chinese Navy had already opened to the naval base on Sumatra and was ready to combat the protection of the Strait of Malacca at any time.

Without considering this point, from the perspective of transportation alone, as long as the railways in the southwestern province are connected to Myanmar, they can be transported to the port very quickly, and exports to Europe can be reduced by a long distance. As long as the transportation is done, the development of the southwestern economy will have similar advantages as those in coastal provinces.

The Myanmar Colonial Government did not respond to this request of the Kokang Kingdom, but the Kokang Kingdom was not idle. After going around the mountains from the river valley, the Kokang National Defense Forces and administrators came to the mountainous area in southeastern Myanmar. This mountainous area is centered on Dongzhi as the economic center, half of the size of Yunnan. Crossing the national border is Pu'er County, Yunnan.

The Kokang Kingdom intends to establish another base here, and the northeastern region of Myanmar also borders China, and this area can easily receive domestic support.

Moreover, this is a mountainous area, suitable for fighting against the British army. If the British army wants to wipe out the Kokang National Defense Force in the mountainous area, it is basically like telling jokes.

At this time, the strategy of the Kokang Kingdom was to first occupy the northern and northeastern mountainous areas, then rely on the motherland with these two mountainous areas, and then expand into the Myanmar River Valley, so that it will be invincible.

The authorities in Pu'er County and Lincang County, Yunnan also received orders from superiors after making a decision in the Kingdom of Kokang, mobilizing the people to repair roads in Myanmar, and all wages were good.

...

The Myanmar colonial authorities did not give a reply, it turned out that the British government was trying to use diplomatic means to let China come forward to resolve the Myanmar issue.

The British Embassy's special ambassador, Jurden, submitted a note to the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, demanding that the Chinese government immediately stop the fire exchange with the British Myanmar colonial authorities and release the prisoners.

Britain is indeed right. The Kokang Kingdom is actually an armed group that obeys China's orders, but the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the Myanmar conflict has nothing to do with China and mediation is not China's responsibility.

China denied everything that Britain proposed in the Myanmar conflict, and Britain had no choice but to do so. China clearly wanted to take advantage of the situation.

Now the UK is not easy to offend China, especially when China has the ability to trade with Germany. If China turns to Germany, it will be a terrifying disaster for Britain.

China has a population of 400 million at this time, and its war potential is so terrifying.

Just a Tsarist Russia with a population of 170 million can bring in more than 16 million troops. So can China pull up an army of 40 million?

Judging from the current level of China's military industry development and its developed agricultural technology, it is fully capable of embarking on a very terrifying expansion route.

The UK was still unwilling to stir up China's nerves at this time, so after a period of unsuccessful disputes, the British political government finally put down his posture and asked China to mediate the conflict in Myanmar. In this way, the Chinese political government agreed to mediate.

Under the mediation of the Central Dominic State, the Myanmar colonial authorities and representatives of the Kokang Kingdom finally sat at the negotiating table.

The two sides held a fierce debate on how to demarcate the boundaries

The Kingdom of Kokang proposed that Myanmar belonged to the Burmese people since ancient times, but not to the British colonial authorities. The British colonial authorities should withdraw from Myanmar and make the Burmese people independent.

Until now, the Myanmar colonial authorities do not understand that the core component of the Kokang Kingdom is actually the Han people, and they think that this is a simple "Myanmar people".

In order to achieve the predetermined effect, the Kokang Kingdom naturally shouted the conditions higher.

Myanmar colonial authorities threatened that if the Kingdom of Kokang continues to carry out military operations, Britain will soon send a large army to wipe out the Kingdom of Burma.

The Myanmar colonial authorities quickly paid the price for the threat, and the Kokang Kingdom directly withdrew from the negotiations.

The Kokang National Defense Force launched a tide-like offensive three days later, and the 50,000 British troops trapped were soon submerged in the "broad sea of ​​the Burmese People's War".

Seeing that reinforcements were not delayed, the 50,000 British troops held on for a day before formally surrendering.

At this time, the number of British local soldiers captured by the Kokang National Defense Forces reached more than 12,000, and the number of Indian Asan was captured was nearly 40,000.

As for those indigenous Burmese troops, they were quickly turned against each other after being captured and joined the "broad sea of ​​the Burmese People's War".

After the British army surrendered, the Kokang National Defense Force seized a large number of heavy weapons.

The Kokang National Defense Force immediately made a order and sent it back to the country. All it needed was ammunition needed for the British heavy weapons. At this time, the Zhonghua Empire's Political Mansion was not good enough to directly give the advanced heavy weapons to the Kokang National Defense Force, but now a large number of heavy weapons of the British army have been seized, and the empire only needs to provide ammunition.

Ammunition is not simple, Xia Jun exchanged a large number of British-style ammunition from the exchange platform, which made people quickly send it to Myanmar. With these heavy weapons, the Myanmar Defense Force can carry out a larger-scale attack.

The Zhongdian Empire's Political and Political Palace could only express regrets about the breakdown of the negotiations, but did not implement the procedures that a mediator should do.

However, Britain saw some clues in it.

The Kokang Kingdom is very similar to China in diplomatic negotiations. The East China Government was the same in diplomatic negotiations. If the negotiations were not reached, they would play the military card.

For a qualified politician, military is the last trump card.

When it can be resolved in a political way, try to solve it in a political way.

In their opinion, those countries that use force every day are very dangerous and impulsive countries, and China is a very impulsive country.

Xia Jun has been listed as a dangerous politician by various countries. Who knows what kind of behavior this young man will do. In the eyes of politicians from various countries, this young man has shown a very strong desire for territorial expansion, which has been difficult to curb since the Sino-Japanese War.

First, Japan suffered, then the Netherlands suffered, and now Britain suffered. However, the conflict in the British Myanmar colony was a conflict with indigenous rebels. Before the outside world had some understanding of the Kokang royal family, they all believed that this might be China's intention to support a pro-China country on the Chinese Peninsula.

As for whom the next one is going to suffer, everyone understands that it is Tsarist Russia.

Tsarist Russia has continued to expand towards Asia for centuries and signed several treaties for cede land in several wars with the Qing Dynasty.

After opening the deal, I found that China still has more than 1.5 million square kilometers of land occupied by Tsarist Russia.

The next one to suffer is definitely Tsarist Russia. At this time, Tsarist Russia was trapped in the European war situation, and the Allies were unwilling to see China use force against Tsarist Russia to avoid affecting the war against the allies.

But with China's current development momentum, the only way to avoid the battle with Tsarist Russia is to take the initiative to give up its territory to occupy China

.China is a time bomb at this time.

Britain is in trouble at this time and cannot compete with China.

The situation in Myanmar deteriorated again, and even the 100,000 British troops failed to achieve any good results. The UK obviously did not have the extra energy to turn Myanmar into the second African battlefield, so it could only ask China to mediate again.

The mediation of the Central Domestic Government of the Central Domestic Empire was relatively smooth this time. The Kokang Kingdom attended the negotiations again, and the conditions of both sides also changed.

With the "effort" of the Zhonglong Empire's political palace, the Kokang Kingdom finally agreed to the conditions for demarcation and rule, but the prerequisite was that Britain recognized the international legal status of the Kokang Kingdom. At the same time, the boundary moved from the original Taung Chi south to the Naipido area, which basically means that the mountainous areas of Myanmar and half of the Myanmar river valley.

This boundary seems to be more reasonable, because the main population of Myanmar is concentrated in the valley area. As for the backward economy in the mountainous areas, there is no oil or water for British colonial rule. There is nothing but rainforests and swamps there, and the environment is harsh.

But from the perspective of the territory, it is unreasonable. This painting gave most of Myanmar to the Kokang Kingdom, while the Myanmar colonial authorities only accounted for one quarter of the original, and the other three quarters were occupied by the Kokang Kingdom, although this quarter was the most elite area.
