I work as a mercenary in northern Myanmar

On the other side, Peng Deren hung up on Chen Chen without any hesitation and immediately began to set up the temporary camp he had just commanded his militiamen to set up.

I have to say that he did learn a lot in just a few days with Chen Chen. Not to mention anything else, he had already "reborn" as a camp layout person.

Of course, these things are not all taught by Chen Chen. In fact, Chen Chen's role is more like a "road sign."

He pointed in the right direction, and Peng Deren saw it, so he started walking in that direction.

How long does it take to evolve from a country bumpkin militia boss to a real commander who is willing to read, memorize, and learn modern tactics and techniques?

The answer is simple, a few months is enough.

Peng Deren really worked hard, and his hard work also saved his life.

It was because he realized the lack of firepower and training of his troops that he focused on training the guerrilla capabilities of his troops - and it was extreme training. He did not consider attack first, but first considered strategic retreat.

He responded immediately after Kachin launched the first wave of air strikes and ground armor assaults.

Don't make any unnecessary resistance, just run!

The slow-starting but high-speed teams such as baggage, supplies, and equipment are withdrawn first, and the light infantry relies on the advantage of the skirmish line to block the enemy. They do not seek casualties, but only seek to give the logistics troops a "start-up" time.

After the logistics troops withdrew, the main blocking force retreated first, leaving the most elite private soldiers behind.

What? Are you saying that private soldiers dare not fight?

This involves one of the most critical situation judgments.

For Kokang, Kachin is fighting a "war of aggression"!

I am a big-head soldier and my whole family is here. Although I can't confront you head-on, I also know that I must stand in front so that I can have a chance to counterattack in the future!

Wartime political propaganda was the second trick Peng Deren learned from Chen Chen.

With such a combination of punches, the Allied forces completed the evacuation in a thrilling and stunning manner even though their equipment and personnel were at a great disadvantage.

The total team of 4,000 people suffered no more than 200 casualties during the retreat, and only more than 500 people escaped from the battle.

This number can be considered top-notch among the folk martial arts in Pubei.

Therefore, Chen Chen's judgment of Peng Deren and the Allied Forces was indeed biased. He did not know that the Allied Forces were slowly evolving, and he did not know that under his influence, some things had already flowed into the ink pool like a clear stream. Slowly replacing some of the original dirt

Does Peng Deren want to vote?

If it can't be withdrawn, he will definitely vote.

But it was because he withdrew that he could say the words "Kachin tactics are not very good."

And this is true.

Modern semi-motorized troops with aircraft fought against modern troops with assault rifles. Only about 200 people were left in one raid. If this disgusting record were placed in the north, the commander would have to beat him from top to bottom.

There is no doubt that Peng Deren is confident and even crazy.

Therefore, when his adjutant finally laid out the brief map and introduced the current deployment of troops on both sides, not only was there no fear on his face, but he was filled with high spirits.

"Based on the intelligence summary from all aspects, the number of ground troops dispatched by Kachin this time is at least about 3,000, including light armored units, fixed-wing aircraft, propellers - we have seen all of these."

"There is currently another intelligence report that the De'ang Army has turned against the enemy. The Muse-Nangkan front line. We and the De'ang Army were originally in a very different form of cooperation, but we were completely unprepared for Kachin's activities."

"This shows that even if they didn't surrender to the enemy, they were at least watching the show while sitting on the wall."

"We can no longer try to enlist their aid and must treat them as enemies."

"But this means that the total enemy force we may face in the short term must be at least 5,000."

"The situation is very critical. I suggest that we continue to retreat to the southeast as soon as possible and seek refuge from the Wa State."

"Anyway, we are already determined to get on the ship, so why not do it more thoroughly?"

"Even if we get on the ship, we can't continue to evacuate!"

Peng Deren waved his hand decisively and then continued:

"Kachin is now gaining momentum, and the external propaganda situation is excellent."

"Muse is theirs, the old street is theirs, and Qingshui River is our last important town. If Qingshui River is also lost, it means that all Guogang is lost."

"They will definitely use this to make a big fuss. After a round of publicity, I'm afraid there will be chaos in the rear before we are defeated, and we don't need to fight anymore!"

"So, my suggestion is to stick to Qingshui River."

"Relying on the river bank as cover, we can establish a solid blocking line and give full play to our advantage in flexibility."

"We still have 3,000 people on hand and can hold at least 3 kilometers of the river bank."

"If the key crossing points are the focus, this length can even be extended to 10 kilometers."

"Don't they have armored vehicles and tanks? Blow up all the bridges and let me see how they come over!"

"ah?"

The adjutant looked at Peng Deren blankly and asked:

"If we blow up all the bridges, then we can't get through?"

"What else are we doing? Going to get beaten?"

Peng Deren chuckled and replied:

"Do you think the Kachin's attack this time is still the kind of petty quarrel we had with the four major families in the past? They are going to 'unify Pubei and fight against Bagan'!"

"They will do whatever it takes. In this case, don't feel bad about all the things."

"We can repair them after they are damaged. As long as we can block the Kachin, do you think we still need to repair these bridges ourselves?"

"If the notice goes down, the bridge will be blown up immediately. Only one small mountain bridge will be left within 30 kilometers, which will serve as our subsequent traffic intersection."

"Execute quickly, don't waste a moment!"

"clear."

The adjutant nodded with difficulty. After hesitating for a few seconds, he asked again:

"In this case, will the people in the old street feel that we have abandoned them?"

"What do you care about them? Our supply lines have been cut off and our depth has been lost. At this time, don't worry about the people's unpopularity. Save your strength first, and then find a way to defeat the enemy!"

"Can it really be beaten?"

The adjutant was still a little skeptical.

——

In fact, he is half a political commissar. He always looks confident and sure of victory in front of other ordinary soldiers. Only in front of Peng Deren can he ask one or two true questions.

"Can it really be beaten?"

"No one can explain this problem, even if that person is alive."

"But there was a famous military commander named Li Yunlong. He said something."

"He said, fight those who can beat you. What if you can't beat them? Show your sword."

"When you encounter an enemy, you must draw your sword. If you fight, you may not win. If you don't fight, you will definitely lose!"

Having said this, Peng Deren's eyes became firm.

He no longer looked at the adjutant's still hesitant eyes, but raised his head and looked northwest.

Under the dark night, the lights from the old street more than 20 kilometers away could be vaguely seen. Because the Allied forces withdrew quickly enough, the order that was finally restored there was not greatly affected.

Compared with the chilling atmosphere of Qingshuihe when soldiers approach the city, the old street that has been reduced to an "enemy-occupied area" seems to be in a peaceful mood.

Peng Deren sighed with emotion, and then said:

"Don't think it's funny for me to say that I show my sword. Many things can only be learned through hard work."

"Look over there, the lights on the old street."

"Don't forget, Laojie, it took 20 people to fight back!"

"It's just a Kachin. Do you really think they can touch the giant Buddha behind the Dongfeng Corps?"

At the same time, Chen Chen had handed over the mess in Meng La to He Bupa, and he himself returned to the Meng Kha team.

This battle can be said to have been stumbling and extremely chaotic. Although the coalition forces led by the Dongfeng Corps had amazing combat effectiveness, there were indeed many flaws in some tactical handling.

As a front-line commander who was personally involved, Chen Chen kept all these flaws in his mind and planned to sort them out quickly and send them to the following groups for review.

However, this matter is not urgent at the moment. What he needs to solve more urgently now is the problem of equipment.

The battle against Mongla was a "battle of wealth" through and through. Because it was mixed with the purpose of troop training, the consumption of basic ammunition and equipment was not restricted.

Of course, this is also due to the logistics and freight complex system established by the Dongfeng Group under Chen Chen's meticulous methods. So far, as long as it is not some "special equipment", the Dongfeng Corps' ammunition supply is still completely sufficient.

Especially after opening up supply sources in Africa, heavy artillery shells have become relatively cheap. The current Dongfeng Corps basically has enough bullet tubes, artillery shell tubes, and rocket tubes.

However, the Dongfeng Corps still faces major gaps in more advanced destructive equipment.

There are no missiles, no high-performance anti-aircraft guns, no high-penetration artillery shells, and even large-caliber anti-tank rockets are scarce.

At the same time, the enemies of the Dongfeng Corps have firmly grasped the loopholes of the Dongfeng Corps, and even made targeted "attribute restraint" arrangements.

This made Chen Chen once again feel the importance of intelligence, and also made him more eager to build Jianghe's "Tonglian Telecom" as soon as possible.

——

But just like his tactical summary, this was also something that had to be postponed. Sitting in the conference room of the Dongfeng Corps, he only discussed one thing.

Equipment, equipment.

Looking at the people attending the meeting in the combat command room, Chen Chen said:

"I have basically explained the current situation clearly and the issues are very clear."

"What we urgently need to solve now is where the advanced equipment comes from and how to maximize its combat effectiveness."

"At this point, my idea is very clear, which is to concentrate all advanced weapons in the Dongfeng Corps to form an iron fist that can be punched out to block the enemy's offensive."

"This strategy is beyond doubt. If anyone disagrees with it, you can withdraw from the discussion now."

After saying that, he shot around the venue and confirmed that no one refuted before continuing:

"Okay, since everyone agrees with my plan, let's move directly to the next step."

"To put it bluntly, if you have anything at the bottom of the box, take it all out and stop hiding it."

"If we don't fight these things out in this battle, we won't have the chance to fight again in the future."

After hearing his words, He Bangxiong, who has always been the most positive, immediately raised his hand and replied:

"I must hand over all my armored vehicles and put them under the unified command of Brother Chen."

Chen Chen nodded with satisfaction. Before he could open his mouth to praise, He Bangxiong continued:

"In addition to armored vehicles, it is best for our artillery to be centralized and establish a unified command relationship."

"Brother Chen's level of sexting is obvious to everyone, so it goes without saying."

"In addition, I also have 8 sets of Needle-1 missiles here, which were dug out from Zhao Jialiang's warehouse. I don't know if they are useful, but it is better than nothing."

"Also, I have 20 rounds of PF89 - that is, 80 fire, and 6 sets of RPG-29, which have just arrived."

"It's a pity that RPG-29 is in short supply right now. I wanted to get more, but I couldn't get it yet."

After hearing his words, Chen Chen nodded again.

He Bangxiong really "struck his pocket" this time. 20 rounds of 80 fire and 6 sets of PRG-29 may not sound like much, but in Pubei, it is definitely a very prescient purchase.

So, Chen Chen opened his mouth and said:

"The anti-tank rocket launcher is basically still useful, but the Pin-1 is too weak to fight against fixed wings. It's better than nothing."

"Ms. Bao, do you have any suitable anti-air weapons over there?"

Bao Xiaomei, who was sitting next to He Bangxiong, shook her head helplessly and showed a ashamed smile.

"There are no anti-air weapons. I checked before I came here. There are quite a few RPG-7s and 40-guns. There are probably more than 200 rounds in total."

"There are really no other ones with larger caliber and more lethality."

".With your 20,000 Wa State Army, you can muster more than 200 rocket launchers?!"

Chen Chen was stunned. For a moment, he even suspected that Bao Xiaomei was deliberately hiding her strength and deliberately lying to him.

However, when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was quite reasonable.

The Wa State's arms procurement is a great success. Now it buys helicopters, now it buys armored vehicles, now it replaces 97 rifles, and now it buys sniper grenades.

But the problem is that these gadgets are either scarce in quantity or low in usage. When it comes to fighting, it is really better to use two tubes per person.

No way, the leader likes to see it.

During the military parade, watching helicopters, armored vehicles, and monkeys with rocket launchers in their hands still feels different.

Seeing Bao Xiaomei shaking his head, Chen Chen sighed helplessly, and then asked:

"Then what do you have?"

"There are two Mi-171 helicopters, but only one can actually fly."

"There are also two small helicopters, which are converted from civilian models."

"It's useless at all. It will be a target for the opponent's fixed-wing aircraft. Where is the armored vehicle?"

"The armored vehicles belong to the 468th Brigade. They have to protect Bangkang, you know."

"Forget it, I can't count on you. I'll have to find someone to fill in the lines later."

Chen Chen interrupted Bao Xiaomei with a wave of his hand, and then turned to Jackal, who had been sitting in the corner without speaking.

The latter saw his eyes and a smile appeared on his lips.

Then, Jackal coughed and took the initiative to say:

"I have what you want."

"have what?"

"2 sets of BGM-71E model Dow, 2 sets of javelins, and 4 stingers."

"you sure??"

Chen Chen was stunned.

Jackal nodded calmly and replied:

"The stuff is in the warehouse, it's been less than a month since it arrived."

"You know, I've been planning these things for more than a year."

"From that time when the javelin was fired over Chen Yimin's head, I expected this day to come."

"Now, I finally have to use it."

Chen Chen was about to burst into tears.

Damn it.

It has to be you.

How can you be a jackal? You are obviously my mother!
