Volume 6 [The tiger is strong even when it goes to sea] NO.261 Focus, anger
no.261 focus, anger, betrayal
The location of Nay Pyi Taw is very delicate. When Sid Than Shwe was established as the capital at the center of the actual control area of the general government, this is Nay Pyi Taw in the south of Mandalay Province, next to Bago Province and Magway Province. It is known as
It is a political center and has extremely obvious geographical advantages. Even if a war breaks out, it is extremely easy to fight street fighting or enter the jungle to fight guerrillas.
But what is shocking is that this is an absolutely extraordinary battle.
Before approving the latest military plan, Army Lieutenant General Vincent Jordan, deputy chief of staff of the U.S. Army, as usual, has to review the intelligence collected by the Military Intelligence Agency. Clark Jamison, deputy director of MIA, said in a cold sweat:
"This requires your wisdom, sir."
Yes, if one is not careful, the whole world will think that the Americans have directly trampled on a country's sovereignty, assassinated their head of state, and destroyed their capital and government institutions. This is subverting the regime, even if Myanmar is a * in the eyes of most people
* regime, Sit Than Shwe has also been spurned and reviled by many Western media, but obviously, compared to this, people prefer to see American soldiers go to Naypyitaw not to save Ryan, but to kill Bill.
This is not the previous US military invasion of Grenada, let alone the rampage in Panama. This is Asia. To be precise, in a subtle location, people think that the Americans have done a subtle thing.
Is this testing the Chinese people's bottom line? Or is it further trying to contain the rise of China and India?
Everything is incredible, and everything is confusing.
What's more important is that no one thinks in that direction, thinks about it... This is a frame-up.
"It's impossible to frame someone up."
"Is it possible that the Marines in Fifth Fleet received the wrong orders?"
"You think we're filming The Matrix? We are human beings, not data streams."
"Tim Raphael denied that he gave the order, but he couldn't explain why he was not on duty that day, damn..."
"Bazooka, M16, Micro Fire Dragon, okay...what else don't we know? C4 or Cobra?"
"Thankfully it's not a Super Cobra"
"go to hell"
Quarreling, constant quarreling, in the Pentagon, former U.S. Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld, who is now an arms dealer consultant and also a defense consultant to Gates, looked at the picture in silence. The gentlemen around him were all smoking, even the smallest
Gentle people also know that this moment may not be inferior to the Cuban Missile Crisis. You must know that there was an empire as powerful as them at that time, but now, there is nothing.
The hegemony cannot be maintained forever, otherwise the backlash will be strong and it will form 911. They know this. Those bastards on Wall Street will not let their lives be wasted in that damn place. They want to create more virtual wealth.
Then if you continue to overdraw the future, only the poor people at the bottom will die, that's it.
"What do you think, sir?"
Gates asked Rumsfeld in a low voice, and the former U.S. Secretary of Defense looked askance at Deputy Chief of Staff Vincent Jordan, a think tank who had many combat experiences and knew all kinds of military and national elites well: "
Vincent, tell me."
"We are very passive, obviously, very passive..."
He said suddenly.
There was a sudden silence in the room. In fact, everyone knew that as long as Vincent spoke, they would have a chance.
Gates was stunned. Rumsfeld was gray-haired. He was loyal to the United States and to the U.S. dollar. If there was no betrayal, it was because the price was not high enough.
At least now...he will not betray the dollar, he can swear to God.
"The picture is very confusing. It's unclear who the leader is, but the fighting style is very similar to that of the Marine Corps. Of course, we also miss the Delta. We can investigate and eliminate possible internal conflicts first, and then we can concentrate on external affairs. People from the CIA
We have begun to use manpower, and we may find some answers from intelligence agents in Asian countries. The most important thing is, who in Myanmar can do it?”
"Could it be that monster?"
"Maybe, maybe not, if someone wants to start a war between the United States and that guy, it's obviously going to benefit the other person."
Someone asked this, and Vincent answered again.
"We are very passive and this is not good. The most important thing is that Myanmar will now be divided and no one can rule the overall situation."
Gates frowned and said that he was about to leave office and he didn't want so many bad things to happen during his tenure.
"The Bonis matter has not been resolved yet. Are we going to face the loss of all Myanmar's interests? There are so many resources and access to the sea..."
"Perhaps it could be a little deeper, a little more thorough, if someone is willing to take the risk."
"Is it the same as the Korean battlefield or the Vietnam battlefield decades ago? Come on, we don't like the 38th degree north latitude, and we don't like the 17th degree north latitude. By the same token, if it's just unclear, we won't have any interests.
Do you think it’s reasonable to lose billions and tens of billions of dollars in one of the poorest countries in the world?”
"For a lot of people, that's reasonable."
Rumsfeld chewed his cigar and looked askance at the speaker.
Only then did someone remember that this old guy is now a consultant for an arms company... yes, a consultant.
As long as the U.S. military keeps fighting wars, they keep making money.
As for where the money came from, they don't care. Anyway... the people of the United States love the United States, and they will be happy to spend tens or even hundreds of billions of dollars to fight any war again and again. Well,
Yes, maybe that's true.
"This is not Afghanistan. It is full of woods just like Vietnam. Our soldiers will not like it there, let alone adapt to it."
"Hey, do you really want to send in troops? The president will not sign this order."
"The Department of Defense can just submit it to Congress."
"Okay, gentlemen, we have to use our brains. There are not so many unreasonable things in this world. The problem now is, whether we fight or not, we have to figure out the real situation."
…
The quarrels and discussions at the Pentagon are still going on, but the reports from the US Global Network are not so satisfying. Just 24 hours after the violence in Naypyitaw, Myanmar, the US Global Report has already made the current president O Zebra
Support fell to 32 percent.
Many people are saying: Stop deceiving and fooling the people. This is an invasion, a joke, and a loud slap in the face.
Framed? Do you have the nerve to say that?
The forum was also so popular. There were demonstrations and marches of different sizes in New York and New Mexico. The atmosphere was very similar to the anti-war demonstrations during the Vietnam War. Of course, that year, the U.S. military dropped thousands of people.
Wan's corpse was paraded. Now...it was to warn in advance to avoid the recurrence of what happened back then.
Where do you think the place where widows were made is? It's the Western Pacific.
Of course, it is indeed easy for people to believe that these are "conspiracies" by rehashing old accounts. Conspiracy theories are very popular in any era and in any country. This is a plague.
Likewise, this is definitely not just a problem, there are people behind it who are adding fuel to the fire and things are getting into trouble. The strong condemnation of the U.S. representative at the United Nations General Assembly was eventually parodied into various cartoons.
Unfortunately, they were actually wronged this time and framed.
It's a pity that what the people want now is not evidence or anything else. They have already got the "truth" and "facts", so no matter how the government excuses it, it is useless. This is a dead end.
At the same time, in Sagaing Province, Myanmar, Luo Xinghan has withdrawn to some remote locations in Sagaing County. Those towns are in a very rundown state. No rich people go there to spend money or play, and there are opportunists everywhere.
Drug dealers or human traffickers, the price of a woman here is about the same as a piece of leather goods. Of course you can't buy them, you can only enjoy them once, and the period of time is relatively long, maybe six months or three months.
"**, Xi Danrui is dead?"
Luo Xinghan still couldn't believe this fact, but the reality told him that Xi Danrui was indeed dead, and was killed by a team of well-trained people who were obviously from elite troops. They had advanced weapons commonly used by the US military, and the most important thing was
, and according to rumors, there is also a Cobra helicopter.
Perhaps the Pentagon should ask: Why not just say it is the Longbow Apache? Wouldn't that be more eye-catching?
The Lieutenant General of the Army of the Union of Myanmar, who was drinking coconut milk and eating barbecue, had a flash of excitement in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. Since Xi Danshwe could die, what else could happen here?
As for Soe Win and U Thein Sein, who were supposed to be supporting each other at this time, actually started dog-eat-dog, and each pulled a vote to form the legendary provisional government. This is not what Luo Xinghan cares about. At the same time, Soe Win and U Thein Sein both claimed that they were the legitimate successors to peace and development.
The position of Chairman of the Committee...
Seeing that this was a hot potato, Soe Win and Thein Sein both looked solemn and expressed their determination to shoulder this heavy responsibility with all their strength, and so on.
Those government officials who were coerced dared not speak out. When Xi Danrui was still alive, he was still able to speak. Now, political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Whoever has more soldiers and generals is the boss.
Goa in Karen State knew that after Sid Than Shwe's death, Li Ke announced that Karen State was willing to obey the central government. Of course, there was no need to consider what kind of central government there was in Naypyitaw at this time. The public's favorable opinion of Goa
It has greatly improved, but the only drawback is that there is really nothing left in Naypyitaw, except for a lot of people running out.
Those who didn’t run either had no money, no power, or no status.
None of them are fools.
Because the time is very consistent with what Zhang Ben said, Dongba, who had made the decision at the beginning, did indeed start an uprising. Disputes over military pay can happen everywhere, especially in Myanmar. It is very common, but this time Dongba came with a
His Rana Brigade directly attacked the base camp in Goa, and then captured the military camp in Goa. After disarming a large number of troops, Dongba announced that he would take over the responsibilities of Goa and succeed him as the Commander-in-Chief of the Karen State Military Region.
With Dongba in front of him, there must be someone who wants to imitate him, so those rebellious people immediately started to kill the boss, and then they could not be considered as successors to Commander So-and-so, Commander-in-Chief So-and-so...
All kinds of chaos, and all kinds of fighting conflicts.
It was also under such a general environment that Bao Youxiang's counterattack from the Wa State was extremely sharp. Under the equipment of the anti-government troops, the government troops were retreating steadily. Sagaing Province was basically finished in just half a month.
However, Luo Xinghan's strength has not been lost at all. He just continues to be his military leader. Luo Xinghan has seen that the future is dim. Unless someone sweeps away, there is no way to save the Union of Myanmar.
He called Zhang Bi and decided to seek refuge, or to take his wife and children to Yunnan or Singapore. As long as he could settle down and be safe enough not to get his head blown off at any time, that would be enough.
As for the Salween River here, to be honest, does it have anything to do with it?
So Luo Xinghan prepared to meet Zhang Bi and wanted to know something.
About four days later, Luo Xinghan met Zhang Bi as scheduled.
Drinking coconut milk and handing a string of bones and flesh to Zhang Bi, Luo Xinghan asked: "According to what you said, what chance do I have?"
"Once Sid Than Shwe is dead, no one can control your troops now. You can build a territory around Sagaing Province and support yourself. Don't get involved in the battle in the center. Let Soe Win and U Thein Sein go and eat each other. As long as you have the territory,
Aren’t you the one who has the final say on what you want to sell on the ground? These are the best ways to make money.”
"In a word, it's just hugging others, grabbing territory, and selling real estate."
Zhang Ben was chewing on the bones and flesh, and Luo Xinghan was drinking coconut milk, obviously thinking about what Zhang Ben said. The double skin milk made by some Cantonese guys was pretty good, and someone here was making Poria paste, which was like...
It's like black jelly and stuck in the bowl.
Luo Xinghan pondered for a long time and said: "What if the Americans intervene? They are very angry now, and I don't dare to shoot them."
"Don't worry, the focus will not be on you. There will still be at most half a month, and there will definitely be a battle between Soe Win and Thein Sein."
Zhang Bi sneered and said.
Luo Xinghan asked strangely: "There must be a battle? Why do they want to fight? Is there no reason?"
"Humph, if there is no reason, why can't we create one? In the final analysis, we still have to rely on the barrel of a gun to speak. Soe Win and Thein Sein have all been prepared for it. I'm afraid that if it weren't for now, they would have already recruited troops and pulled in reinforcements everywhere to prepare for a fight.
A vigorous battle."
Luo Xinghan was quite horrified by Zhang Bi's words. He had a few thoughts in his mind, and he suddenly knew that these were probably still inseparable from the madman in front of him.
Luo Xinghan's guess was correct. No matter how restrained Soe Win and Thein Sein were, their subordinates were eagerly hoping that their boss would rise to power, and then one of them would be able to ascend to heaven, so that they could have a good background.
But it's not a good thing to see someone vying for a seat.
Coupled with the anger of the Americans, the Fifth Fleet has scanned almost all ships coming and going from Myanmar. Recently, fewer and fewer ships have come to Myanmar ports. The quarrels in the Pentagon and a bill submitted to Congress by the Department of Defense are even more serious.
There are many shocks. Nowadays, more and more people know that the Americans may want to take action. But the more the Americans do, the more careful they have to be. So be careful, and the focus shifts faster and faster.
.
Just like the propaganda during the Gulf War, no one knew whether the Americans had one division or ten divisions.
Just like a kitten's claws scratching his heart, Luo Xinghan seemed to have made a decision.
Zhang Ben looked at him with a smile: "Have you made a decision? As the saying goes, a man who knows the current affairs is a hero. Commander Luo, once Xi Danshui died, Myanmar lost control. I'm afraid it was just the time for Commander Luo to make money. Then we really need to negotiate and withdraw.
At the end of the day, even if you are doing business with Americans, you are the least wealthy person, is this true?"
Rich man? I'm afraid he is a lackey of the Americans.
Luo Xinghan said in his heart.
However, he said: "I don't mind the money. Since I have the opportunity to make money, why wouldn't I do it? I'm not good at internal affairs anyway, so I might as well just keep my gun and collect some protection money."
That’s it.”
"Commander Luo, you finally understand."
Zhang Bi tore off a large piece of chicken in one bite, and then looked at him sideways, thinking in his mind: Luo Xinghan, the old fox, never lets go of the rabbit before he sees it, but now a person like him who doesn't take risks will take risks.
Once the land is obtained, it seems that there are conditions for betraying the country, so that he is qualified to betray the country. Luo Xinghan wants to avoid being a traitor to the minimum.
After thinking about it, Zhang Bi secretly speculated: I only need to light a fire between Soe Win and U Thein Sein, and the war is about to break out. If Luo Xinghan wants him to take action, it may not be that easy, but Americans are now looking for targets everywhere.
, it is inevitable that Luo Xinghan will fall into their plan. When the time comes, it will be extremely disadvantageous for me to become a dog. How to choose, this is really a problem.
He thought a lot, but did more. Even in the remote Minda County, some mixed-race people with relatively high autonomy here began to wait and see the change of power in the central government. Although the Union of Myanmar announced that administrative sovereignty was still intact,
But there is no doubt that Soe Win and Thein Sein suddenly fell out, which was a real slap in the face for them.
But the focus is not here, but...the Salween River area is really a bit low-key.
You know, how could the troops who scared U Thein Sein out east of the Salween River be so incompetent and unable to control even such a small scene?
Many people are speculating whether Zhang Bi has another bad idea and wants to harm someone?
While people were gossiping, the U.S. Marine Corps took off their medals and became a multinational force. In cooperation with the peacekeeping forces that entered early in the morning, they began an in-depth investigation. The focus was once again on the Union of Myanmar. No one knew what would happen.
