I work as a mercenary in northern Myanmar

And while Chen Chen and Xiaoyu were discussing how to further strengthen the firepower of the Dongfeng Corps in order to conduct a sufficiently convincing "persuasion" to surrender to Xiao Mengla under the leadership of Lin Mingxian, they were only a few dozen kilometers away from Mengkha. Outside Mongla, in an ordinary office, two men were having a vital conversation.

The person sitting on the left side of the sofa was undoubtedly Lin Mingxian, the "chief" of the Fourth Special Zone, and the person sitting opposite him was a man whose name Chen Chen had never seen before but whose name he had already heard.

Deputy Commander of the Kachin Army, head of the Kachin Army’s external liaison, and member of the FPNCC. In 2014, he was one of the first civilian leaders to visit the United States in a public capacity.

It should be said that it is reasonable for such a person to appear anywhere, but at this "sensitive" time point, he actually crossed many obstacles and appeared in Mongla, but it is unreasonable among the reasonable.

And his appearance actually represented a certain attitude. In contrast, Lin Mingxian personally received him, which also represented Mongla's attitude.

From the moment they met, the two parties had actually reached an agreement. What they wanted to discuss now were just the specific details of cooperation.

Looking at the confident Gan Mao across from him, Lin Mingxian sighed softly, and then said:

"General, we have received your proposal, but with all due respect, this proposal is 'treacherous' to us."

"We have a close relationship with Kokang, and it's impossible for you not to know the origins of Mr. Peng and me."

"In this case, if you want me to cooperate with you and betray Mr. Peng's friends, I'm afraid I can't do it."

"What's more, when the situation has basically stabilized and everyone is thriving and seeking development, for us to provoke a war again is unpopular from any perspective."

“An unjust war cannot be won.”

"I still want to advise the general to think more about it. Maybe this time, we should really take a step back and follow the general trend."

Lin Mingxian's words can be described as high-sounding, high-level and emotional.

If it is a low-ranked player, I am afraid that he has really misunderstood his meaning and thought that he is a righteous man with both loyalty and filial piety and far-sighted vision.

But neither of the two people here are fools. Gan Mao's ability to visit the United States on behalf of Kachin three years later has proven his profound skills in "mediating" this matter.

Therefore, he immediately heard the implication of Lin Mingxian's words.

After all, isn’t it just that the benefits are not enough?

What is a Peng Jiasheng?

Not to mention that he is already old and his courage is far away from Mongla. From a purely profit perspective, as long as he is given enough money, what can't Lin Mingxian do?

Was it really because of the so-called illusory "friendship" that Lin Mingxian didn't support them when Bai Suo rebelled?

Stop being funny.

To put it bluntly, isn't it that the spoils are divided unevenly and that Bai's achievements are not as generous as those of the Peng family?

As long as he gives enough money, he can kill his own father. What does the Peng family's reputation mean, and what does Peng Deren mean?

Thinking of this, Gan Mao sighed with pretense of regret, and then said:

"I can understand Mr. Lin's difficulties, but I still say the same thing: I hope Mr. Lin can recognize the reality."

"Now is not the time to be merciful or reasonable. The enemy has pushed us into a corner. If we don't fight back, we will lose everything."

"You have also seen that the Wa State, Shan State, and Kokang State have become one, and the entire Pubei land has fallen into their hands."

"The Karen is far away in southern Myanmar. It can be said that it is in a corner of peace. It cannot play a big role in the overall situation."

"Other small-scale civilian armed forces are more like bandits than 'armed'."

"We can't accomplish anything by relying on them. If we want to save the crisis, we can only rely on us."

"We can only rely on Kachin and Mongla."

"We know this, and the enemy certainly knows it."

"So, even if we do nothing, you and I will become the next targets of the so-called coalition forces - the lessons learned from Zhao Jialiang's mistakes are still in front of us!"

Lin Mingxian remained silent after hearing Gan Mao's words.

Of course he knew these things, and he had already made preparations before Gan Mao came.

But there is a difference between what you think of and what comes out of someone else's mouth.

When Gan Mao said the same thing again, it was as if it had become a fact and there was no doubt about it.

His heart became more determined, and some of the strategies he had conceived long ago became more concrete.

But he knew that at times like this, he would be less able to express his stance easily.

You have to let the other party bid, and then "reluctantly" agree to it when the price is high enough.

So, he opened his mouth and said:

"I don't believe they will go against us in Mongla."

"Mongla is an important part of the Wa-Shan Federation Army's plan. There is a high probability that the Bagan Railway will pass through our territory. Of course, even if it does not pass through our territory, Daluo Port will become an important port because of this railway. .”

"At the same time, we are also preparing to cooperate with the North to build a secondary hydropower station on the Nanlei River, which represents a major progress in our relationship."

"Look, General, I really can't think of any need for me to fall out with them in such a good situation."

"But you still have to rely on someone else, right?"

Gan Mao's voice lowered a bit, and the old god said on the ground.

".This is not called being dependent on others, it should be called win-win cooperation."

"Win-win cooperation is just a trick to deceive children. Mr. Lin, I don't think we need to take too many detours."

"You know, I was originally responsible for mediating and communicating, and you are also good at dancing and versatile."

"It's really tiring for the two of us to play charades."

"It's better to be direct and honest."

Gan Mao leaned back on the sofa, showing an unguarded and relaxed posture, while Lin Mingxian, after thinking silently for a few seconds, suddenly said:

"Let's not talk about how to distribute the benefits. Why do you think we can beat them?"

Speaking of this step, Gan Mao finally made a breakthrough.

He breathed a long sigh of relief and answered with relief:

"In terms of military strength, they do have an advantage."

"But in terms of equipment, they may not have an advantage."

".They have the Wa State. Do you think their equipment is not superior? They have several helicopters!"

Lin Mingxian shook his head and questioned.

"What about helicopters? We can have individual anti-aircraft missiles."

"Based on the skills of the Wa pilots, how many missiles can they carry?"

".They have armored vehicles."

"We have it too, you don't have it, but you can have it."

After Gan Mao finished speaking, Lin Mingxian's heart suddenly jumped.

He vaguely guessed the implication of Gan Mao's words, but in this case, he didn't know whether he should say it clearly.

So, he just asked tentatively:

"Do we have other foreign aid?"

"certainly."

Gan Mao nodded confidently and then said:

“There are many people who do not want to see the situation in Pubei develop in this direction, and they do not want Bagan to ‘firm its stance’ at this point in time.”

"So, they are willing to 'pay', or should I say, sponsor our actions."

After hearing his words, Lin Mingxian nodded slowly and solemnly, and then continued to ask:

"How far can it be done?"

"In short, we can have armored vehicles, advanced missiles, and heavy weapons."

"These things will be transported in from far away, then bypass their sphere of influence and delivered to you."

"Of course, you may not be able to obtain heavy equipment, and you will have a harder time fighting."

"But I promise that while the war is going on on your side, we will also enter the battlefield to share the pressure for you."

"We are very confident that Kokang will never participate in this 'war'. Our first battle will be a decisive battle with the Wa State."

"And the only ones you need to deal with are the Shan State Army and the Dongfeng Corps!"

"How about it, Mr. Lin, can this condition convince you?"

Tempting indeed.

Lin Xianming's brows furrowed. He vaguely felt that what was before him was a major opportunity.

Yes, the Dongfeng Corps is very strong, and so are the Northern and Southern Shan State Army.

They crossed Pubei, captured Tachilei, and even controlled a vast area.

But are they really monolithic inside?

Can they really afford failure?

No, this is not possible.

The core of the Shan State Army is not the Shan State Army, but the Dongfeng Corps.

If the Dongfeng Corps could be wiped out in one fell swoop, wouldn't the matter be over?

Now, the Northern and Southern Shan State Army has deployed heavy troops in Tachileik. They are facing pressure from many parties, and both their troops and equipment are stretched thin.

The only thing I really want to fight is Mengka!

There are only less than 500 defenders from Mengka's 7th Brigade and dozens of Dongfeng Corps!

Even if they have tanks, so what?

The man in front of him has promised to provide equipment.

missile

Even if it is just an individual missile, it is a "high-precision weapon" that I never dared to imagine.

Lin Mingxian didn't believe that with such support, he couldn't defeat the Dongfeng Corps!

They are not gods. With four brigades and 5,000 troops in hand, can they not even defeat 50 people? !

Lin Mingxian thought about it completely.

He opened his mouth and said:

"I have no problem."

"But we can't start fighting directly, can we?"

"It would do us no good to declare war head-on; we should."

"Mr. Lin, you don't need to worry about this."

Gan Mao finally felt relieved. He interrupted Lin Mingxian's words and continued:

"Before this, we have already conducted some testing."

"Of course, objectively speaking, the effect is average, but it does cause them trouble."

"We will attack them from three directions."

"Cut off the economy, behead members, and capture cities and territories."

"Searching for cities and large-scale decisive battles is the last step. Before that, we have a lot to do."

"We need your cooperation - this is one of the reasons why I found you today."

"Assassination?"

Lin Mingxian's eyes narrowed and he asked in a low voice.

Gan Mao put down the teacup in his hand and nodded slowly.

"We need an opportunity, Mr. Lin, you need to create this opportunity for us."

"impossible."

Lin Mingxian shook his head without hesitation, and then said:

"You don't understand the Dongfeng Corps, nor do you understand the mercenary named Sunken Ship."

"He's very cautious, the most cautious of all the people I've ever met."

"There's no way you can find an opportunity to assassinate him. If you find one, there's a high probability that he intentionally exposed the flaw."

"That's just for conventional means."

Gan Mao interrupted Lin Mingxian again and then said:

"But this time, we have something new."

"You don't need to know too much, you just need to do one thing for us: make an appointment with Chen Chen."

"If he takes one step away from his base, he will surely die."

"Or, there is another plan."

"Find a way to get your people in front of him."

"The person doesn't have to do anything, not even physical contact, but just see him and that's it."

When it comes to this aspect, Gan Mao's words even sound a bit like "fantasy" to Lin Mingxian.

However, from the other party's determined expression, he also guessed who the force that provided help this time was.

Therefore, Lin Mingxian did not ask any more questions, but after thinking carefully, he answered:

"It's impossible for him to leave the base - even if he leaves, he will still be sitting in an armored vehicle. Can you destroy the armored vehicle?"

"There is a chance, but it is more difficult."

Gan Mao answered frankly.

"In other words, there is a greater chance of sending our people into his territory. Let me think about it."

Lin Mingxian frowned. After a long time, he suddenly said:

"There's only one reason to meet him."

"surrender."

"I want to join the coalition and become their vassal - in order to eliminate their suspicions, of course it is a conditional vassal."

"We need to negotiate and this is the opportunity."

"I have to talk to the Bao family, and maybe Peng Deren."

"Then it's up to you."

Gan Mao nodded with satisfaction. He was really satisfied with Lin Mingxian's reaction.

In his opinion, the other party is the real "one who understands current affairs is a hero."

That's right, the Dongfeng Corps still doesn't know what kind of enemy they are facing.

Shadow Corps? MPRI? These teams are very strong, but there are always too many uncontrollable unexpected factors in head-to-head confrontations, and their failures are excusable.

But what if CIASAD is the one who ends up?

Many people have never heard of this name, but Gan Mao knows that if the SEALs are the ceiling for special forces, CIASAD is the ceiling for intelligence and spies.

Within the scope of "combat", the Dongfeng Corps may be able to compete with the SEALs, but what about in the spy field?

At least, this won't be your major, right?

The gap is there, and CIASAD experts never miss it.

At least I have never heard of a case where they failed.
