"I believe..." Yang Jiawei originally wanted to refute Pang Jindong, but he lacked confidence and swallowed his words again.

Although Pang Jindong didn't know enough about the Kokang people and the Kokang area, the inferences he made based on what he already knew touched upon a reality that the Kokang Republican Army has always been unwilling to face, that is, even in the turbulent MD, peaceful development is still possible.

It has become the mainstream, but not many people still want to fight.

It is also for this reason that various armed forces have reached reconciliation with the government. It was on this premise that the Kokang Special Zone was established.

In other words, the idea of ​​the Kokang Republican Army, which is still persisting in armed struggle, may no longer work.

Although the power of the Kokang Republican Army is still growing, it is under the cover of superficial peace and neutrality.

If the Kokang Republican Army openly breaks through this facade and launches a full-scale armed uprising, it is completely unknown how much support it can win.

In fact, it may also cause divisions within the Kokang and Chinese communities. Considering the nature of the Chinese who are good at fighting among themselves, many Kokang and Chinese may even cooperate with the government in order to protect their own interests and turn their guns against their compatriots.

Pang Jindong looked at the speechless Yang Jiawei and shook his head slightly: "In addition, there is a fourth problem, which is related to the economy. If you want to fight for Kokang independence or even control the country, you need a strong army.

.And where does a powerful army come from?”

Yang Jiawei sighed and replied helplessly: "It was made with money!"

"That's right!" Pang Jindong nodded and continued: "At this stage, you can rely on drugs to obtain high profits, but this kind of business is illegal and extremely risky after all. There is no problem in supporting a small army, if

How about supporting a large army? MD has a vast territory and a large population, which cannot be controlled by an army of 1,800 people. Even if it is just to maintain the integrity, independence, prosperity and strength of the Kokang region, it may be difficult to achieve. It is more important.

The most important thing is that when you appear as an independent regime recognized by governments of various countries, you can no longer engage in the drug business. In fact, your drug business has become an indelible stain on you.

This is also the reason why several other armed forces that have reconciled with the MD government have implemented comprehensive drug control."

"These can slowly change..."

Pang Jindong shook his head and interrupted Yang Jiawei: "To take a closer look, in the future, both the Kokang region and the MD government will need to face the problem of economic development! How to make the country prosperous and let the people live a more prosperous life?

This is something you must consider! Otherwise, why do you have to prove that you are better than the past government? And why don’t you allow other domestic forces to oppose you? "

Yang Jiawei has a wealth of knowledge, has profound insights into many things, and is thoughtful enough. He is different from his careless and careless appearance.

But economic issues were not his expertise. Hearing what Pang Jindong said, he scratched his head: "This... I can't think of a way..."

"The four issues I just mentioned are all large-scale issues. I haven't talked about small and piecemeal issues yet, but they are equally important! For example, building a modern army requires modern weapons.

, it’s not enough just because the guns in your hands are of different models, manufacturing years, and advanced levels. But where do you come from these modern weapons? This is another question!"

Yang Jiawei thought for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face, as if he no longer considered these issues: "Anyway, I gained a lot from this conversation with my brother today..."

Yang Jiawei's words were interrupted by a third person's voice: "That's right! I didn't expect that my great-nephew would have such insights!" Along with the words, Pang Wenlan walked leisurely out from behind a huge stone.

Behind Pang Wenlan are the dejected Kazama Masaharu and Nagano Fuka, and surrounding these two girls are several short and capable young men, all of whom have sharp gazes in their eyes.

, it can be seen from the movements and footsteps that each of them has extraordinary skills.

Pang Jindong immediately understood as soon as he saw this scene. Pang Wenlan heard all the conversation between himself and Yang Jiawei clearly.

In fact, tonight's conversation was probably arranged by my uncle, and he himself had already been waiting here, waiting for him to express his opinion.

Masaharu Kazama and Fuka Nagano were worried about their own safety, so they followed quietly, only to discover Pang Wenlan who was eavesdropping.

It is impossible to know whether the two sides had ever fought against each other, but it was obvious that Masaharu Kazama and Kazuka Nagano did not take advantage. They were quickly subdued by Pang Wenlan's men and stayed with them obediently as listeners.

Thinking of this, Pang Jindong couldn't help but feel ashamed. He had been talking nonsense just now, but he didn't expect that there were so many people hidden around him.

If these are enemies, the consequences will be disastrous.

Yang Jiawei hurriedly walked over, put his coat on Pang Wenlan, and said with concern: "It's night and the weather is a bit cold. General, please go back and rest early!"

Pang Wenlan patted Yang Jiawei on the shoulder, clapped a few times, and summarized what Pang Jindong said: "What my grandnephew said is generally correct. The first question talked about external environmental factors, and the second question talked about human resources.

The third question talks about internal factors, and the fourth question is about economic factors. Solutions to the first two problems have been found, and for the latter two problems, we can only slowly think about countermeasures and wait for opportunities..."

Pang Jindong smiled and said awkwardly: "It's just a brief chat over wine. It's just some of my personal opinions. Fourth Grandpa, please don't take it seriously!"

"Fourth Grandpa knows that you are very ambitious and talented, so he really wants to hear your opinions on the Kokang Republican Army! But in this case, Fourth Grandpa is sure that you will not tell what is in your heart, so he arranged

Something like this happened tonight! This is all my attention, don’t blame Jiawei!" Pang Wenlan said, looking at Yang Jiawei.

Pang Jindong said hurriedly: "What are you talking about! Fourth grandpa is willing to listen to my opinion. I am not happy yet. How dare I blame Brother Yang!"

"I'm not disappointed, you are indeed very insightful..." At this point, Pang Wenlan frowned slightly and asked a little strangely: "However, Fourth Grandpa thought that you seemed to have missed an equally important issue!"

Hearing the last sentence, Pang Jindong also frowned, but it was not to imitate Pang Wenlan, but purely as a habitual action. After thinking for a while, Pang Jindong asked in a low voice: "What Fourth Grandpa means, is the attitude of country Z?

"

Pang Wenlan looked at Pang Jindong's expression, smiled and nodded: "Not bad!"

"Fourth Grandpa, please forgive me for being blunt, I think Country Z's attitude doesn't matter at all!"

This sentence was unexpected by everyone present. Yang Jiawei hurriedly asked: "With the support of country Z, no matter what we do, we will get twice the result with half the effort as you said. Why do you say that the attitude of country Z does not matter?"

"

"It sounds nice to say it doesn't matter, but it sounds harsh to say it doesn't matter, but we need to be on guard against Country Z!"

Hearing this, Yang Jiawei was even more surprised, but Pang Wenlan understood what Pang Jindong meant, waved his hand and said, "Keep talking!"

"Country Z has a tradition of indifference to overseas Chinese. It started hundreds of years ago. Not to mention supporting overseas Chinese forces, even if overseas Chinese were massacred and persecuted, most of them remained silent throughout the dynasties." Pang Jindong let out a long sigh.

, although I feel very sad, I have to face this fact: "Since modern times, the famous communists in the world, such as Indonesia's Sukarno, MD's Ne Win, Cambodia's Pol Pot, etc.

If they are not on good terms with country Z, some of them can even be said to have close relations, have received great help from country Z, and are 'old friends of the people of country Z'. This weird phenomenon is unique in human history, and we must consider it!

"

Pang Wenlan was silent for a long time, and finally nodded heavily: "That's the truth."

This sentiment aroused a response. A young man next to Pang Wenlan said bitterly: "That's true. It would be great if country Z doesn't stab us in the back. Don't expect to be able to help us!"

The complaints from people around him made Pang Wenlan's mood even heavier: "Even if our blood is thicker than water, even if we can defend the south gate for them, even if we can stay as a vassal forever, they will not support us...

"

As Pang Wenlan spoke, his voice gradually became deeper. At this moment, a ray of sunlight fell on him, reflecting his vicissitudes of life.

It was only at this time that everyone realized that the sky was already bright.

Unknowingly, the whole night was spent in this discussion.

At this moment, Pang Jindong suddenly felt that his fourth uncle was really old. The bright morning sun and his old figure formed a wonderful contrast, which made people feel that the world is ruthless.

After all, my great-uncle is already an old man. Although his strong body, strong perseverance and majestic description often make people forget his age, the years are ultimately ruthless and the changes brought about by him are something that no one can resist or change.

of.

Looking at my uncle's slightly stooped figure, still trying to stand up straight, standing on the rocks and looking at the rivers and mountains in the north, the vicissitudes of life and emotion are almost difficult to describe in words.

Once upon a time, my great-uncle was also a high-spirited young man, galloping on the battlefield, dreaming of making contributions to the country.

However, for most of his life, he was trapped in this deep mountain forest, living with the evil poppies, and confronting the barbaric aliens.

Over the years, the ambitions and ideals of my youth have not been worn away, but have persisted.

Suddenly, almost without thinking, Pang Jindong asked his uncle this question: "Why didn't you go to T back then?"

"I did have the opportunity to go to T at that time, and your second uncle group advised me so more than once! I also thought that if I went to T, I might be able to become a high-ranking official with a good salary, or I might be unknown and indifferent for the rest of my life, but at least I would still be

If you have a choice, you can spend the rest of your life peacefully! But if you stay in this foreign land, you will always..." At this point, although Pang Wenlan's expression was still resolute, his voice became a little sad: "But those who have followed me through life and death will
