The company commander took off his hat and scratched his head a few times, and said, "I can't tell you about this. It should be a victory. However, what I can tell you is that we have a rotation once a year and will come back to rest After training for half a year, this time we entered the battlefield in units of regiments, and I heard that a total of ten regiments were formed this time, and the first batch of three regiments was invested, mainly to establish a theater base, and then everyone went in one by one and then rotated out."

"Commander, there is something you don't know."

The company commander glared at the speaker and said, "Anyway, I know more than you. That's all, let's familiarize ourselves with the equipment and environment, take a break, and start training tomorrow."

North Myanmar.Kokang thriving district.

The second division of the Shan State Army, which was reorganized and dismantled, entered here. The Kokang Allied Forces were defeated and retreated, and there was no battle between the two sides.

Zhang Qifu came here once last time to receive equipment, but that time he came in and left quietly, not as blatantly as this time.

While Peng Jiafu sent someone to notify his elder brother, he rushed here immediately. Regardless of the dissuasion of his subordinates, he led his adjutant and three people broke into Zhang Qifu's division.

"General Zhang, what do you mean by that? We haven't offended you in the special zone, have we?"

Zhang Qifu beckoned, pointed to the stool in front of him and said, "Sit." Looking through the door opening of the tent, you can see poppies all over the mountains. This is also a poppy planting area, but the scale is not as large as that in the south.Go further north from here to the emerald mining area, and there are very few people who grow this kind of jade.

Peng Jiafu sat down angrily, picked up the iron tank in front of him and drank a few mouthfuls of water, then stared at Zhang Qifu, waiting for him to speak.

Both of them were dressed in military uniforms. Interestingly, Zhang Qifu was in the American Ming Dynasty military uniform, and Peng Jiafu was in the standard People's Liberation Army uniform, even with the five red stars on the cap.It feels a bit like a meeting between the KMT and the Communist Party.But at this moment, the Kokang Army is about to change their costumes.

Zhang Qifu said, "Originally I was planning to go to Laojie to talk to your brother, but I got the news too late. The alliance of your five families has been formed, and Peng Youxiang has also become the commander-in-chief of the alliance army. We are all Chinese, and we wrote the same words. With the same words, I have long planned for an alliance, but I have never found an opportunity.”

Peng Jiafu sneered and asked, "You drive the army to prosperity to talk about alliances." He is very handsome, although he is old now, but his years of military life make his words and deeds very interesting.One old handsome guy.

Zhang Qifu shook his head and said, "No, I need to open a base here. From here to the Red Star District, lend me the passage. As for the alliance, it's not too late to talk about it later."

Chapter 866

Peng Jiafu asked sharply: "Your General Zhang's family is very powerful, don't you take our special zone too seriously?"

Zhang Qifu shook his head and said: "It's been so many years. Although we haven't seen each other very much, we can still be regarded as understanding each other. Your brother will know who I am. I will not harm the Chinese, but you. All the opium comes from you, right? As I said, opium can be produced. When Britain and the United States used opium to harm us, we will take revenge. All my goods are sold to Europe, America and Japan. How about you? What about Wa State?"

Peng Jiafu said: "Now we are talking about your cross-border matter, and the opium matter has nothing to do with you."

Zhang Qifu looked Peng Jiafu a few times, and said with a smile: "Jiafu, how about helping me? I'll give you a teacher to do it."

Peng Jiafu seemed to be insulted, blushed, and said, "You want to lure me to betray Kokang and my brother?"

Zhang Qifu shook his head and said: "We are all born in the national army, but we are actually a family. With the changing situation, it is getting more and more difficult for the Chinese. It will be a matter of time before we unite, but I am not the same as you. .How long can the alliance maintain the status quo?"

In fact, the local armed forces in Myanmar are all troops from the former 93rd Army of the National Army. When I returned to the country, I could not report it, so I started to grow opium poppies for my living.

At the gate of Zhang Qifu's barracks, there are two large signs with red letters on a white background. On the left are: The national army becomes a lone army, the lone army becomes a remnant army, and the remnant army becomes? ? , on the right is: ten years of Northern Expedition, eight years of Anti-Japanese War, four years of Civil War, victory or defeat is a matter of opinion.

People like Zhang Qifu, Peng Jiasheng, and Peng Youxiang are all descendants of the National Army alone, and the armed forces in their hands also come from here.At that time, the national army held a Huangpu lecture hall here in northern Myanmar, and all the local armed forces were built in the model of the national army.Zhang Qifu and Luo Xinghan, who first took refuge in the Burmese government, were still classmates in the lecture hall.

The Peng Jiasheng brothers were defeated and fled Kokang twice, with the cooperation of Luo Xinghan and the Burmese government. The first time Peng Jiasheng fled to Luo Xinghan controlled the Kokang area, and a large number of opium entered the territory through southern Yunnan at that time.In fact, the cultivation of poppies is mainly in the areas controlled by the national army, from northern Myanmar to northern Thailand and northern Laos.

Zhang Qifu's actual control area at this time straddled Myanmar and Thailand.He has been fighting with the government forces of Myanmar and Thailand.

……

Peng Jiafu asked, "What do you mean?"

Zhang Qifu said: "I will take care of you borrowing places. Lend Xingwang and Hongxing two places to me. I will be of great use. I will compensate you for the loss of poppies here. There are not many people here, and you actually can't control them." I realized that your people dispersed without firing a single shot. They are not as powerful as the Kachin.

In fact, among your five alliances, only Wa State is stronger, and the rest of you are a bit weaker. To be honest, I am not very optimistic. "

No one informed Zhang Qifu of this alliance at all. It stands to reason that everyone is of the same origin, and they are engaged in a de facto alliance of Chinese forces. How could Zhang Qifu be left behind?You must know that Zhang Qifu's military power at the moment can overwhelm the Burmese and Thai governments.But because he was too powerful, no one looked for him, and later joined hands with the Burmese government to mix sand into his troops.

Zhang Qifu was really sad and disappointed when he finally surrendered to the Burmese government. He is a person who attaches great importance to emotions.

Peng Jiafu asked: "Does that mean you want to occupy two of my districts by force?"

Zhang Qifu glanced at Peng Jiafu and said, "If I seized it by force, I wouldn't discuss it with you. How much effort would it take me to directly occupy the old street? Can China send troops for you? Or can the Wa State and the Burmese government save you?"

Peng Jiafu said: "Don't take advantage of your power to bully others. You General Zhang is powerful, and our special zone is not vegetarian. At worst, we will die together."

Zhang Qifu said: "You go back, I'll wait here for a few days, let your brother come over, the main reason is that it's not convenient for me to go, I have something to talk to him about."

Among the major powers, Peng Jiasheng is the oldest at 31 years old, Zhang Qifu is 33 years old, and Peng Youxiang is the youngest at 49 years old.Of the three, Peng Jia is the loudest and most belligerent, Zhang Qifu is the most powerful, and Peng Youxiang is the best at politics.There are many other small forces, all of whom are Chinese, but both military and territory are too small.

Two days later, Peng Jiasheng rushed to Xingwang and came to Zhang Qifu's camp.

Zhang Qifu still respects Peng Jiasheng, treats him to a fairly sumptuous meal, and then the two of them drink water and talk in Zhang Qifu's tent.

"What I told Jiafu is the truth. I want to borrow Xingwang to go to Red Star. The condition is that there will be an annual subsidy on poppies and military guards. During the loan period, I will guarantee the safety of your north." Zhang Qifu didn't go around in circles either. , going straight to the subject.

Peng Jiasheng said: "It's a little dangerous for you to bring the team here. It's too far away from your headquarters. I'm afraid that the government army will be taken advantage of if you don't rush to help. Why are you taking such a big risk?"

Zhang Qifu thought for a while and said: "I am going to unify Shan State. If we want to solve the opium poppy problem, we must first solve the poppy problem, but will the Burmese government give us a chance? A country said outside that planting has nothing to do with him, emphasizing that they are also actively Crack down on it, and then come back to control us to collect opium taxes. What can you believe in such a country?

How long can they tolerate us Chinese?Instead of waiting for him to slowly wear down us and be forced to defend, it is better for us to prepare and strengthen ourselves. Anyway, it is just a fight. Didn’t this government rely on a military coup to come to power?Is there any kind of kingship, wealth and honor?If we Chinese want to live well, we can only fight. How many years have you been fighting?Now that I have this strength, why don't I try it? "

Peng Jiasheng slowly lit a cigarette and said, "Do you want to establish a channel with China?" He shook his head: "It's not the same now, and I can't get any substantive help there. It used to be that it was aid to the Communist Party. , Now we are all separated from the Burmese Communist Party, we said to fight the national army at that time, but now we are the national army.”

Zhang Qifu said: "I think about retreat before I think about progress. I just want to leave a way out here. If we win, we will sit down and talk. If I lose, I will retreat there. They are all Chinese. At least there is no problem in surviving. "

Peng Jiasheng nodded slowly, and said: "There is a precedent for this, and there is still sympathy for refugees, and there will be no problem in accepting and resettling them. However, then you have to plan to be a farmer. It’s not that easy to make a comeback.”

Zhang Qifu said: "Big brother, we are all getting old, I am almost sixty, how many more years can I go? I won't even be able to hold a gun anymore."

Peng Jiasheng thought for a while, and said: "I will withdraw my people. I wish you good luck. Speaking of which, no matter whether you win or lose, the special zone is a special zone, and this place will always be a special zone."

Zhang Qifu laughed loudly and said, "If I win, there will be special zones everywhere, so please come out and help me, big brother."

Chapter 867 Building Camp

Peng Jiasheng raised his head and looked outside, and said: "There is Ling Yunzhi in the sky, I don't have enough strength, I hope you can succeed, I can't help you, I will talk to Youxiang when I get back, we won't get involved, and we won't talk about you However, you have to promise me that you will not let the traitor Luo Xinghan go easily."

Zhang Qifu said: "I will hand him over to you, Big Brother. You can rest assured and wait for my news. Once I start, Guokang and Wa will be my backs. I don't want you to help me, but please Don't make trouble for me, otherwise I would rather fail than turn around and kill you."

Peng Jiasheng nodded to admit this, and Zhang Qifu said: "It may take some time to prepare for this matter. I respect you to tell you the truth. I hope you can help me keep the secret. Even if I mobilize here, I hope you will not fight with me." Anyone tell me my plan."

Peng Jiasheng asked: "Can I ask your plan?"

Zhang Qifu shook his head: "Sorry, we will have more opportunities to talk in the future, but not now."

No wonder Zhang Qifu is careful. In terms of military comparison, the armed forces in the entire northern region are still at a disadvantage compared with the Burmese army. Although the Burmese army has not yet reached the 40 army of later generations, there are nearly a thousand tanks, thousands of artillery pieces, and nearly a hundred fighters. The size of the frame, and there is no large area equipped with missiles, but the overall strength is still much stronger than Zhang Qifu.Of course, strength is not equal to combat power.

……

A few days later, the Kokang Allied Forces withdrew the local residents from the Red Star District and assembled at the southern border of Xingwang to rebuild the camp. This can be regarded as a kind of surveillance of Zhang Qifu. District, began to build a permanent barracks.

At the same time, Zhang Qifu's department also hired a large number of "frontier residents" to participate in the construction of the camp.In this dense forest of nearly [-] square kilometers surrounded by Chinese land on both sides, military camps appeared quietly.

Among them, the straight-line distance between the nearest military camp and the domestic military camp is less than ten kilometers. The soldiers go to construction every day, come back to rest at night, and work as transnational construction workers.
