During one of his adventures, he gets stuck in a cute and cuddly town called Pure Heart Valley with his co-hero Badgerclops, a cyborg-armed badger, and meets Adorabat, a cute little bat. Following the civil war, the Yongle Emperor became preoccupied with his efforts in pacifying the northern Mongols, and engaged in several campaigns in Mongolia as well as conducted an invasion of Đại Ngu.Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart centers on its Coming-of-age story, with the title character, Mao Mao, a daring cat who has high intentions for action and adventure. Ming interest in Yunnan and the southwest waned in the following years as the court's attention turned to the civil war between the Jianwen Emperor and his uncle Zhu Di. His son Si Xingfa, together with Dao Hun and Dao Cuan, conducted short lived raids on Ming territory before military retaliation by the Yunnan guard forced them to stop. Si Lunfa died a year later and a new generation of elites rose to power in Mong Mao. While they successfully took the stockade, Mu Chun died soon after from an illness and was replaced by He Fu, who captured Dao Ganmeng and installed Si Lunfa as ruler of Mong Mao once again in 1398. He Fu relayed his situation to Mu Chun, who came to his aid with 500 cavalrymen, and in the midst of night advanced on the enemy position taking them by surprise.
The expedition was met with initial success in battle, killing a Mong Mao chieftain, and routing his army, but arrived at an impasse when they failed to take a mountain stockade due to unfavorable terrain. They returned to Yunnan and stayed in Baoshan while Mu Chun sent the commanders He Fu and Qu Neng with 5,000 troops to oust Dao Ganmeng.
The Marquis of Xiping, Mu Chun, was assigned to provide Si Lunfa military support and retake Mong Mao. The emperor, desiring peace in the southwest, agreed to his petition and allocated 100 taels of gold, 150 taels of silver, and 500 ding of paper money to his cause. Si Lun-fa, afraid of Gan-meng's power, fled to Yun-nan and the Xi-ping Marquis Mu Chun sent him to the capital Īfter reaching the Ming capital, Si Lunfa enlisted the Hongwu Emperor's aid in returning him to power. He then led his troops to attack Teng-chong Prefecture. According to the Ming Shilu:ĭao Gan-meng hated them and thus, together with his subordinates, rebelled. This greatly angered the traditional elements in his court and in 1397 Si Lunfa was deposed by the leader of an anti-foreigner faction, Dao Ganmeng, and fled to the Ming government for protection. Si Lunfa converted to Buddhism and gave gifts to the Chinese for bringing with them the technology of gunpowder and cannons. After Mong Mao stopped their military expansion, Si Lunfa began to welcome foreigners such as Buddhists and former Chinese soldiers into his people's traditional territory. Thus, would it not be best to just look after that which you have at present?
If you are not satisfied with what you have at present and move to take more, then you will either lose everything or perish. They have never been united.But I now warn you to content yourself with what you have at present. The states surrounding Lu-chuan have, from ancient times until now, all had their own rulers. You, Si Lun-fa have not maintained good relations with your neighbours, and instead have sent troops in three directions, stupidly annexing other states. Recently, I have heard that you have foolishly aggressed against your neighbouring states, with the intention of expanding your territory and illegally gaining more people. Acknowledging their position, the Hongwu Emperor sent a letter to Si Lunfa in 1396 warning him of retaliation if further acts of aggression were committed: Despite the fact that he was ultimately defeated, Ava sent an envoy to the Ming seeking their help in deterring Mong Mao aggression. In addition the Ming agreed to aid Mong Mao against the Kingdom of Ava and other rivals in Burma. After the Ming–Mong Mao War Si Lunfa was forced to accept Ming suzerainty while the Ming recognized Mong Mao as a semi-independent tusi.
