At noon the next day, Corning and his party arrived in Mandalay by car and would wait for the members of the front-line coordination mission team sent by the Central Military Commission of Myanmar to join forces to Ruibao, the headquarters of the Northern Military Region Command, so that Corning and the generals and schools in the Northern Military Region can cooperate and effectively exercise combat command.

Following Kang Ning this time was Sun Yi, the special forces staff officer of the General Staff, Jia Yufei, director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, Zhou Weidong, deputy director of the Political Department, Sun Changjie, chief of the Division, and other teams of generals and colleges, Lu Xiaojun, who had just been promoted to deputy division commander, accompanied by a company officer and soldier from the direct guard regiment, and a special forces squadron led by Lu Xiaojun himself. These two elite troops with small numbers but extremely strong combat power will shoulder the important task of security and security of the General Command in the future. Due to the arduous defense tasks undertaken by the division commander Guan Zhongming and Liang Shan, deputy division commander, could only stay in the base camp. Together with the commander of the garrison, Mu Zhen, led the troops to strictly guard the old nest, consolidate the defense areas of Jingdong area after the government forces withdraw, and secretly arranged heavy troops on the front line of the Thai-Myanmar border where he was responsible for.

A regiment-level military camp in the northern suburbs of Mandalay is located in a dense forest. More than 30 military off-road vehicles covering camouflage networks without any license plates, jeeps equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns, closed precision communication vehicles, 6x6 troop trucks are neatly arranged in the yard. The well-equipped guard company officers and soldiers quickly occupied various important posts in the envious eyes of government officers and soldiers. The three different models of antennas on the communication vehicles modified from Mercedes-Benz mid-card have reached into the air.

"Report! Mr. Chen from the Southern War Zone called urgently." Jia Yufei's major assistant walked into the spacious lounge of the British Western Building and handed a yellow folder on both hands.

Jia Yufei took the document and nodded, signaled him to leave. After opening it, he hurriedly read it, and then walked to Kang Ning: "Mr. Chen called to wish you a successful journey to the northwest and report to you the overall situation of the southern battlefield!"

After reading it, Kang Ning pondered for a moment, handed the document to Sun Changjie, the "Little Zhuge" sitting beside him, turned to Sun Yi, Lu Xiaojun and others and whispered:

"The Battle of Southern Myanmar is coming soon. The two newly added mechanized divisions of the Thai army have entered the battlefield at high speed. The total strength of both sides of the southern battlefield is nearly 200,000. It seems that Brother Chen and the others are facing a lot of pressure. This call specifically mentioned that Bangboling on the northern foot of the Twin Mountains. Could it be that Brother Chen and Hailan want to modify the original combat plan? After all, with such a major battle approaching, the competition for Bangboling is no longer effective compared to the entire battle situation. It is estimated that in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the two of them plan to withdraw the Badu regiment and Cao Chunlai Special Forces Brigade. It is really difficult for the brothers who have been lurking for such a long time. Now Myanmar is in the rainy season, and they still have to deal with the special forces of the two companies of the Thai army in the mountains. The difficulty and intensity can be imagined!"

Lu Xiaojun took the document handed over by Sun Changjie, and after reading it, he expressed his opinion: "In terms of military strategy, it is said that you should not go any further. The battle of the successful attack on the Thai heavy equipment division of the Twin Mountain line was indeed very clean and beautiful, but the throat was bound to become the area where the Thai army tried its best to control. According to previous battle reports, the Thai army, which was severely delayed, immediately invested a regiment of troops. It strictly controlled the 16-kilometer passage of Twin Mountain, and then sent two special forces companies to search in the area. Therefore, I think the Thai army, who had learned a lesson, would definitely not allow their own supply line to be attacked again. If Badu and others insisted on confronting each other, it would probably be a loss. Brother Chen and Hailan considered withdrawing the two battalions and Cao Chunlai's brigade that Badu had gone up one after another. It seemed that it was understandable, and it was the time."

Kang Ning was about to praise him. Seeing Sun Changjie beside him, he thought for a while and asked with a smile: "Changjie, what do you think?"

Sun Changjie raised his head and replied slowly: "I don't think so! The telegram sent by Mr. Chen obviously wanted to tell us a message that they would not give up the strategic location easily! Based on my understanding of HaiLan, he was cautious and courageous. In several practical and routine military exercises in northern Myanmar, he was always in a row, with many strategies, and often made unexpected choices. There must be a bigger conspiracy behind the plan he formulated this time. Judging from the fact that they secretly sent the second battalion of the Badu regiment to reinforce the Bangboling three days ago, it is very likely that their eyes were still staring at the important Gemini Mountain Passage. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the mobilization of such troops! I don't believe it. It's as simple as giving the second battalion of the army famous for its tough battles to go to Bangboling just to give some supplies and bring back a few wounded and sick people?"

When all the brothers heard this, they felt it made sense and they all fell silent and thought hard.

Kang Ning stood up and walked to the wide Western-style floor-to-ceiling window. He couldn't help but look at the sky in the south. He knew in his heart that Chen Pu and Liu Hailan must have had a complete plan. It is very likely that the Badu Tuan and Cao Chunlai team have become a dangerous move in the entire huge plan. In this way, those brothers who have been hiking hard for eight days and eight nights in the rain are likely to be facing unprecedented dangers and tests!

As Sun Changjie expected, the Badu Group retreated northwest along the primeval forest under the cover of Cao Chunlai's brigade.

In recent days, under the unremitting search and pursuit of Thai special forces and armed helicopters that appeared from time to time, more than 900 brothers have lost nearly 100 people, many of whom died of the kiss of poisonous snakes and sliding down the cliff, but they could not stay for a moment to breathe. They hid and hid in the vast and wet forests, marching hard.

When the cover team sent a signal of safety, all the officers and soldiers who were about to lose their strength immediately removed their heavy equipment and lay on the wet grass and rocks, without even the strength to say a word.

Badu was ragged, and his face and limbs were covered with bloodstains. He checked the situation of the troops slightly, then walked to Cao Chunlai with a dark face, and slapped off the satellite positioner in Cao Chunlai's hand: "Fuck! You won't let you fight, and you won't let you stop. What's the hell is this?"

Cao Chunlai bent down to pick up the locator, carefully wiped off the water droplets and broken grass leaves on it, and then repeatedly checked it, and smiled with gratitude: "Fortunately, it was not broken, otherwise you would be severely punished for this alone... Badu, after all, you are the veterans of the army who came out of the Special Forces Brigade, why are you as knowledgeable as the generals under your command? The more you are the ones in the head, the more you should keep calm. If you don't believe me, don't you still believe in Mr. Chen and Vice President Liu? You have done a good job these days, although it's a loss.

Losing a lot of brothers makes people sad, but you haven't lost a piece of equipment or a shell. Brother, I really obey you. I'm convinced you. The soldiers under your command are real soldiers! Alas... don't be angry, sit down and rest for a while. There are naturally reasons for our superiors to ask us to do this. Many decisions are not something that people of your level can understand, but I guess we don't need to run away. It's often the most difficult time, and the turn will come soon. Don't worry, come and have a drink of water..."

Ba Du pushed off the military kettle handed over by Cao Chunlai, and still cursed: "You have been telling me the turnaround for a few days. I also taught my subordinates the same lesson. But as time passed day by day, your grandson was still the same old saying. How could you please me to comfort the brothers who wanted to fight to the death with the pursuers? Also, the injured brothers were still saved. You and your local people...***! I wish I could kill you, the king, with one knife.

Seeing tears gushing out of his eyes, Cao Chunlai lowered his head guiltily - in recent days, he had to make up his mind to "send" those seriously injured brothers who were dying on the road, otherwise being captured by pursuers would cause great trouble to the troops. Even the officers and soldiers who fell off the cliff would not let go. The brothers in the special war team must follow the long rope they put down to check to see if the fallen brothers were still saved? If the injuries were too serious and not dead, the brothers could only grit their teeth and endure the pain of being pierced, so that the tortured brothers would close their eyes and go on the road. Then the equipment left on their backs continued to flee. Otherwise, under the attack of the Thai special forces and combat troops on their own, it would be tantamount to escorting the seriously injured brothers back! In such a special occasion, Cao Chunlai and his brothers could only do this, even though their hearts were bleeding.

Cao Chunlai slowly handed the kettle to Badu again, and whispered apologetically: "There is nothing to do... After this battle, I will lead the brothers to carry all the bodies of the brothers they left behind and buried them in the Martyrs Cemetery in the West Mountain of Wangang. Please believe me brother. Your brother is also my brother. Every time I think of their desperate eyes, my heart is bleeding... Ba suddenly wiped his face. He took off Kevla's helmet, took the kettle one by one, poured them all on his head. After that, he wiped two with the remaining half of his sleeve, exhaling his resentment:

"Brother Cao, don't be angry with me. I feel uncomfortable. Now it's much better to vent my venting... I know your decision is correct. If it weren't for your timely warning and hiding the rear cover, I'm afraid half of my brothers will be dead. Alas! I didn't know before that the enemy's reconnaissance helicopters were so powerful. We would have been discovered using self-heating food. I blamed me for being careless."

"Isn't this okay? Just remember the lessons in the future! Now the battlefield is no longer like before. Just relying on hard training and tenacious will, you can decide the outcome - alas, the Americans behind the Thai army are hateful! In such bad weather, their armed helicopters can fly, and the powerful air-to-ground missile the day before yesterday. I guess it's very likely that it was the American's Tomahawk missile, which was so fucking accurate. If we hadn't been lucky enough to leave five minutes early, that whistling attack would have killed or injured a lot of people. ***! Now I'm still scared when I think about it now. I've never experienced such a terrible thing before. In recent years, I have led many teams out to fight several small battles, but it has never been so dangerous. It's so scary and cruel! I don't know how I survived these days..."

After Cao Chun finished speaking, he realized something was wrong. He immediately raised his head and looked around. He found that hundreds of brothers were all scattered quietly in the forest to rest and eat. No one heard his depressed words just now, so he took the kettle and drank a sip of water.

Badu sat on the stone slab, staring blankly at the south, as if he was talking to himself: "Hide from east to west, and ran more than 200 miles in this primitive forest, turning left and right. When will this unlucky day be the end? What are Mr. Chen and Vice President Liu thinking about..."

"Report!"

A communications officer from the Special Operations Brigade quickly came to Cao Chunlai and whispered: "Vice General Liu called that the first battalion of the Padu regiment had successfully penetrated out of the Thai-occupied area and was rushing towards our headquarters. It is expected to be able to meet with us in six hours. The person who is responsible for the escort task of the first battalion is General Chen's Han Zifang Guard. The channel is 9 and contacted in one hour. Deputy General Liu ordered us to rest and be on standby at any time."

Cao Chunlai was excited when he heard this and suddenly stood up: "What? Are you wrong? Even Old Han came up? This guy didn't bring his guard company to stay by Mr. Chen's side, so why are you here to join in the fun?"

The intelligence consultant nodded and confirmed: "Head, I guess the full-scale counterattack will be launched soon, especially Mr. Chen has used Lao Han's guards. Obviously, our mission in this direction is not light. The combat power of the brothers of Lao Han is not inferior to us, and the combat power of the first battalion is obvious to all. Since Mr. Chen arranged this way, a war is probably imminent."

Badu and Cao Chunlai looked at each other and nodded together, their faces full of excitement. Both of them were full of resentment, and it seemed that the time to vent was about to come.

Ba Du grabbed Cao Chunlai's hand: "The hard days have finally come to an end. Thai guy, I think you will still chase me this time! Let's go and see my brothers, soothe you and encourage everyone, and turn around and deal with the group of wild dogs behind you!"

"Don't be so tight, it's not good to misunderstand it! The customs of you national army really need to be changed... OK! Isn't it okay to go with you..."
