"This scene is really touching. It seems that true love is everywhere in this world... Klaus, do you think Corning is playing in front of the TV? Aren't politicians keen on this kind of people-friendly trick?" asked David, assistant to the military officer in India, who has dual identities as a commissioner of the National Security Council and an official of the U.S. Foreign Affairs Department.

Colonel Klaus, who has never been able to return to the Embassy in Myanmar, turned his eyes away from the TV screen and smiled at David and his female assistant: "Otherwise, I would rather believe this is true. I am familiar with Corning and know his character. This guy has never given up his belief since he entered Myanmar. Over the years, he has always repeated the same sentence on different occasions - axiom and justice! At the beginning, I thought this was the slogan he shouted to achieve his political goals, but what surprised me was that he had been doing it and persisted until now. He was very friendly to the people and went deep into the grassroots of the army, factories, and rural areas whenever he had time.

Chat and eat with ordinary soldiers and lower-class people, understand their latest work and living conditions, ask about their requirements and opinions on the government, and often express their attitude on the spot when encountering difficult problems, and never say anything empty and beautiful. As far as I know, several middle and senior officials in his government were sentenced to death and imprisonment by the High Court of the SAR for violating their strict laws, and made the criminal facts of these transformed officials publicly publicly without any concealment. Therefore, his SAR administration is as clear as Singapore in the Garden Country. From this point of view, Corning does better than most of the world's power."

"Col. Are you exaggerating? Why do I think you have a very good impression of this dictator and even have a sense of mutual appreciation, which really surprised me." David's beautiful female assistant handed Klaus a cup of coffee with a smile.

"Strictly speaking, this is not a good impression, but an appreciation, a heartfelt appreciation." Klaus shook his head and took the coffee cup, and said politely thanking him.

Take a sip of fragrant coffee. Klaus put down his cup and continued to explain: "At least so far, we cannot call Corning a dictator. First, he has not yet met the conditions required for dictatorship; secondly, from his rise to the present, there is nothing that can prove his dictatorship. Whether it is the formulation of their SAR laws or the establishment of the political system of the SAR, his actions can withstand the blow. Please check this point for Miss Ruth.

I can tell that I am not saying good things for him by several annual reports from the Organization, the FAO, the Human Rights Organization and the Anti-Drug Commission. I remember that many officials joked privately that Corning was fully qualified to be nominated as a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize because he ended the decades-long chaos in northern Myanmar, causing millions of people in Myanmar who couldn't even guarantee their survival to bid farewell to drugs and fill their stomachs. Although this is just a joke in private, we can see from it

Come on, the mainstream international society does not hate him; another and the most critical factor. Corning has been enlightened and united the various forces in Myanmar. Whether in his Fourth Special Zone or the central government of Myanmar, there is no sign that Corning has forced his thoughts and wills to anyone or organization. This is very terrible and is exactly what we are most worried about. If nothing unexpected happens, Corning will serve as the deputy prime minister of the Myanmar government within two months because he has received the support and support of the vast majority of workers, farmers and intellectuals in Myanmar. Many ethnic minorities in northern Myanmar even built temples to worship him, and at the same time he has a large number of allies with similar political views in the central government. To use a Chinese idiom, it is called "With everyone's wishes". Please imagine that there are so many hostile conflicts between Corning Group and us. If he takes charge of the future development direction of Myanmar step by step, what impact will it have on our interests in the United States?"

After hearing Klaus's words, David and Ruth fell silent.

David let out a sigh, walked to the front of the TV, watched the Spring Festival folk party broadcast by the English Channel of Myanmar East Satellite TV, shook his head and turned off the TV and returned to his seat, picked up the coffee cup and tasted it slowly.

David had never been to Eastern Myanmar before. The neat streets, beautiful scenery, satisfied smiles and the patrol policemen who appeared from time to time were very surprised. He had never expected that he had never thought that the poor and backward Myanmar would have such a comfortable and prosperous area and such a vibrant living environment. Everything he saw and heard over the past month was far beyond his imagination, especially the Battle of Northwest Myanmar, which ended in just a few days during Christmas, forced him to re-examine his usual thinking and judgment about Myanmar.

"David, we have received a notice from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Myanmar. The Myanmar government suggested that our Embassy in Myanmar reopen on February 1. At present, the security of Yangon has improved. The work of the Myanmar internal affairs force to eliminate ethnic extremists has come to an end. It is time to go back." Klaus whispered.

David nodded, took out a document from the drawer, and Yang said, "I have also received a notice from Washington to help you with your work. Klaus, the gentlemen in Washington, sent me a consultation document at the same time, you can take it and take it for yourself."

Klaus looked at David with surprise, and slowly took the document in David's encouraging eyes, and opened it to read it carefully.

Ten minutes later, Klaus closed the documents and handed them to David: "What do you want me to say?"

"Now there are only three of us, and you can say anything you want. Klaus, I really need your opinion. No one knows Myanmar better than you, no one knows Corning better than you, and no one has your objective, rigorous and pragmatic attitude on the issue of Myanmar, so you have to help me." David smiled sincerely.

Klaus hesitated for a moment, took two sips of coffee and said slowly: "From this document, I can see that there are great differences between the National Security Council, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the CIA. Here I am not willing to comment on the attitudes held by all parties. I can only express my personal opinion. Is it OK, David?"

"That's exactly what I want." David nodded heavily.

Klaus put down his cup, straightened his back, and talked: "First, let's analyze some of Corning's recent key practices. According to the news you told me just now, Corning Group must have reached an understanding with our British friends. Two British military experts who were secretly detained in secret will be released soon. The conditions are only for a mere 300 sets of off-road vehicles with engines. Combined with the memorandum of understanding and joint communiqués secretly reached between the Myanmar government and the Indian government over the past two months, the Myanmar government obviously supports Corning Group's opinions and practices. Therefore, to a certain extent, Corning's attitude almost represents the opinions of the Myanmar government. Do you agree with my conclusion?"

David thought carefully, then nodded and said, "It's true. At least in the fields of Myanmar's economy and diplomacy, Corning's attitude is of great importance, and your analysis is very insightful."

"Thank you. I appreciate the compliment!"

Klaus continued: "As long as my conclusion is true, everything Corning Group has done is not difficult to understand: First of all, he has avoided the situation of making enemies on all sides, and can always give all parties a decent step at critical moments, as is the case for our British friends, and as is the case for the dirty and cowardly Indians. In fact, before that, his attitude towards the Thais was the same. This made it difficult for these countries to follow our footsteps in the short term and put all-round pressure on Myanmar. Over the past year, Germany, France and other countries in Europe have made their interests in the Middle East due to our occupation of Iraq.

He was damaged, and therefore he had been striking against us in international affairs. At the same time, he was gloating about the difficulties and setbacks encountered by the United States in Myanmar. Now our firm British allies are also beginning to waver. This must attract our attention. Myanmar is different from China. For a long time, the British have had strange plots about the lost Myanmar colony. It is difficult to ensure that they will not improve bilateral relations with the Myanmar government alone, at least in terms of economic and trade cooperation, and therefore they will no longer be bound by the covenant. Therefore, it can be believed that Corning is very smart. He saw this, or there is a think tank behind him who is unknown to us to see this clearly."

David nodded admiringly: "It's very wonderful! Klaus, this is the preliminary conclusion I came to after thinking hard for dozens of days. I regret asking for your opinions now. I have done so much useless work. Please continue to say, my friend." Klaus smiled humbly: "Secondly. Corning successfully captured eight of our military advisers in the Northwest Battle during Christmas, but this time he did not choose to make a high-profile statement. Instead, the TV media he controlled mentioned once in an uncertain tone and there was no more text. It is understandable and very reasonable that Washington made the judgment that Corning Group was willing to improve relations with us. It can be seen from the public opinion direction in Myanmar for half a month that they are unwilling to fight again.

After the political stability in southern Myanmar, the special zones in northern Myanmar also expressed their high profile that they would obey the leadership of the central government. Myanmar ushered in a situation of stability and unity that had never been seen in history. So they changed their strategies and hoped that their citizens would eat bread, sea fish and meat as soon as possible. From Danrui to various provinces to help government officials, they were making hope after hope to the people. Corning Group has never stopped economic and trade cooperation and exchanges with international economic and trade, and has become increasingly close with Eastern European countries such as Russia and Ukraine. They even don’t even care about making joint ventures bigger and stronger with our American Venzano family. Therefore, I think the conclusion that the purpose of Corning from Washington is to develop the economy rather than benefiting through war is very correct."

David nodded: "That's true. Corning's efforts to cooperate internationally just now have never stopped, which is one of the important reasons. In addition, Washington is very reluctant to see the polar bear's claws extending quietly to Southeast Asia. This is very unfavorable to the interests of the United States. It is enough for us to have a Chinese giant standing behind Myanmar. If the Russians can successfully enter Myanmar, they will compete with the traditional barbaric way in international affairs with an arrogant attitude and a traditional barbaric way.

A greater voice, if such a complex political situation occurs at that time, it will be very bad. Even if the entire Myanmar is turned into a burning battlefield, it will not make up for the losses of the United States. The entire Southeast Asia, which we have always maintained absolute influence, will be divided into several camps due to loss of control. Moreover, Afghanistan and Iraq have now dragged our pace tightly, and China, which has a geopolitical advantage, will become the biggest winner in regional competition. Therefore, the gentlemen of Washington hesitated, alas..."

Ruth spoke carefully without opening her mouth: "After listening to your analysis, I feel that the key is Corning. With my understanding of the Eastern people, the huge conflict between us and Corning is difficult to resolve in the short term. Looking at Myanmar's current hatred towards the United States, I felt a little frustrated."

"No! Ruth, I don't think so."

David raised his hand and shook: "Think about it, hasn't China once hated us extremely? Now he has embarked on all-round cooperation with us, bringing huge profits to the United States every day? Isn't every young Chinese proud to study in the United States? On the bustling streets of New York, in the palaces of Las Vegas, on the beaches of Miami, in front of the bridge of San Francisco... On the entire American land, there was no interest in Chinese officials and tourists? Didn't the American spirit have taken root and sprouted on the ancient Eastern land and had fruitful results? This is a wonderful world, and everything can happen. Yesterday, the enemy may be friends today, and there is no hatred that cannot be resolved in the face of money and power, especially the Chinese who run through the spirit of meanness---Don't forget that Corning himself is a Chinese himself, and a genuine Chinese!"

The clever Ruth immediately understood David's meaning. She knew that her wise, wise and elegant boss had already come to her final conclusion, so Ruth smiled with relief, her charming eyes shining brightly.

Klaus saw David's gaze inquiry and shook his head and smiled: "I agree with you, David. But many of the efforts that are about to be put in far beyond my authority and do not belong to the area I am responsible for. Although I have been resentful of several failures, I am not a warrior and I hope to solve the problem in a pleasant way."

David laughed: "Klaus, your sincerity and hard work touched me. I see the spirit of perseverance, persistence and lofty patriotism in you. I will faithfully present my opinions to Washington, and implement any decisions made to the country as perfect as you. In the face of a powerful America, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome. On the contrary, I am full of confidence in the future of Myanmar! Just as you analyzed in the report you sent to Washington last time, I also think Corning is a unique mind and unwilling to endure the responsibility.

Anyone who is merciless in power, we Americans cannot do it, and the Chinese cannot do it either. From what Corning has done over the years, it can be easily seen that his beliefs and principles are not on the same path as the great power in the north, and even go against many fields. Perhaps Corning is a noble man, a nationalist who is willing to sacrifice everything for his people who follow him. But now all this is not important. What is important is interests, besides guns, there are many ways to solve problems, and I really hope and believe that Myanmar will become another Thailand."

"I agree with you and try my best to move towards this goal." Klaus smiled.

David nodded with relief: "Thank you, Klaus, without your efforts, there would be no clear understanding of me. You are better than all the soldiers I have ever met... I have good news here maybe you would like to hear it."

"Oh? What else is there good news at this time?" Klaus leaned back casually.

David stood up and walked slowly: "That's right. I received a consultation document for comments, which was about you. I also signed my own opinions truthfully. If everything goes well, you will soon be a brigade general of the Army. An old friend in Washington revealed to me privately that you may be transferred to Beijing in the second half of the year. Isn't this good news?"

Klaus raised his head in surprise and saw David's sincere smiling face, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

David walked up to Klaus with a smile and whispered in his ear: "My friend, before this, there is a difficult task that you can complete, and only you can do it."

Klaus was stunned and then stood up slowly: "David, I know what it is. Even if I don't need orders to advance, I will do my best. I am a soldier. I cannot abandon my comrades, and I cannot watch my brothers be imprisoned in the dirty prison of our opponents. Even if our government and the army do not recognize their identities, I will not abandon them... Sorry, I am a little excited. I will return to Yangon early tomorrow morning and try to meet Corning as soon as possible. Wait for my news, goodbye, David, goodbye Ruth!"
