627 The Brave Wins(1/2)
Zhang Guobin received the latest battle report from northern Myanmar, made a phone call and shouted: "Ah Hao!"
“What’s going on with the fighting on the Kachin border with Shan State?”
"The battlefield is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more conflicts..."
Li Chenghao was sitting in the back seat of the jeep, with a white paper in his left hand and a satellite phone in his right hand. He stared at the content of the book and spoke righteously: "Big brother."
"What do you mean?"
"The entire northern Myanmar was originally my battlefield!"
Zhang Guobin paused and took a deep breath: "I understand your strategic intention, but if your troops make dangerous moves and your sword takes a wrong turn, you can easily hurt yourself!"
"I hope that the security battalion can create advantages step by step and steadily, safeguard interests, and let all brothers return home safely."
This is his command style.
Li Chenghao said: "Boss, you don't know the situation in northern Myanmar. This three-acre area in northern Myanmar is full of paper tigers. Instead of worrying about whether they will join forces to deal with me."
"It's better to worry about whether they will fight first. As far as I know, the Shan State Army has already launched an attack on the Independence Army on the border, and several battles involving more than a thousand people broke out between the two sides."
"The Mindan Department is probably in bad luck now. We were scolded by our superiors, right?"
Zhang Guobin asked solemnly: "Are you sure you can give me some time?"
Li Chenghao clenched his strategy book tightly and said in a serious tone: "Three days to end the battle, five days to get victory on the negotiating table."
"OK!"
Zhang Guobin said: "Give you five days. If five days is not enough, I will send more troops to help you."
Li Chenghao's face showed a little surprise, but he was also deeply moved. He nodded and said: "Five days!"
"I will definitely get back what belongs to my brothers."
Brothers on shoulders, money on feet.
This is loyalty!
Zhang Guobin never thought about asking his siblings for anything wrong. He was the one who asked his siblings to go to northern Myanmar to take full command of this incident. Since there is news of any failure, he should bear the greatest responsibility for all failures.
Therefore, he could only support his siblings unconditionally and give them full trust, so that he could be worthy of their life-and-death struggle in northern Myanmar.
Those who let brothers take the blame are not called bosses, but remnants of feudalism. They are all things that should be swept into the dustbin of history. Only loyalty is a little light in human nature.
Not in Jianghu.
Also in the sea.
"Crack."
Zhang Guobin hung up the satellite phone, took out his landline phone and dialed a number. The call was connected and he said aloud: "Put the latest fighting situation on the Shan State border into the news."
"knew."
"boss."
Zhang Guobin called the CEO of Millennium Jewelry again: "Let the outside world announce that the company's jade inventory has dropped to less than 20%."
"Jewelry-grade jadeite priced at less than 100,000 yuan will be stopped on the shelves, and products priced at more than 300,000 yuan will be launched."
This financial news has entered deep water, and it is necessary to use the spot value to wipe out a wave of civilian investors.
The president of Millennium Jewelry quickly agreed: "Yes, sir."
…
Northern Myanmar.
Near Moshi Town, on a road, a large army of more than 2,000 people was marching. In an off-road vehicle, Min Dan, wearing a military uniform and a general star on his shoulder, listened to the staff report with a gloomy face.
"General, there are traces of a small Chinese troop marching twenty kilometers away, and there are also movement tracks of a small Chinese troop ten kilometers away to the southeast."
Mindan raised his hand to signal interruption and said: "When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue."
"This is the essence of guerrilla warfare. I have seen it. Li Chenghao made it clear that he wanted to bleed me and kill me bit by bit."
After all, Min Danbu comes from a military family and has studied at a command school. He actually has a very thorough understanding of military strategy. However, the environment he is in, his own conditions, external pressure, etc., affect every commander's decision.
It is easier said than done. Knowing how to study is not a skill. Knowing how to apply theory into practice and bring out the new is what counts.
The colonel staff nodded.
Min Dan continued: "Have you sent someone to verify the map of a supply point captured in the last encounter?"
The colonel's staff officer said: "A reconnaissance team has been sent to verify that the three supply points on the map have been taken and used, and the goods from one troop point have been brought back."
Min Dan sneered: "These supply points are the reason why Li Chenghao dares to fight with me. He has food in his hand and is calm, haha."
"The supplies are buried along the way for guerrilla operations. The psychological fortress is very deep... Unfortunately, there is no base for you here, and you can't defeat me."
The best strategy to solve guerrilla warfare is to tighten the activity circle of the guerrilla team and tighten the shackles bit by bit, just like several major sieges in history.
You can only move out of the encirclement.
However, there is no broad space for the defense camp movement in northern Myanmar. Not to mention the lack of support from civilians, the boundaries between states and provinces are clear.
Li Chenghao dared to attack the Shan State Army, but he did not dare to jump into Shan State territory, because there was no benefit, no benefit, and it would only lead to encirclement and suppression.
Mindan's best approach was to stay put, without being led around by others, and to contact various departments of the Independence Army to directly eliminate them on the spot.
The security camp will soon become armed like bandits. Escaping the country is the best outcome. If you are not careful, you will be eliminated by the independent army.
But Li Chenghao was messing around in the name of the Mindan Department, causing the Independence Army Headquarters to hold him accountable and order an immediate settlement of the security camp matters.
At this moment, Mindan put away a military map and said aloud: "According to the enemy's movement trajectory, the enemy will gather near Gaoxi Mountain."
"Their purpose is probably to seize a military base of the Independence Army. Based on their previous position and calculated marching speed, they must pass through Baihe Bay."
"Speed up and rush to Baihe Bay to set up an ambush."
Baihe Bay is a river bank highland that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you enter Baihe Bay first, you can create a big ambush for the defense camp, and you have a chance to annihilate the main force of the defense camp in one fell swoop.
…
"We have been giving the illusion of massing and mobilizing to the armored base of the Independence Army. Due to the political situation, the Mindan Department will definitely intercept us first."
"Last time, the Third Company had an encounter with the enemy. It was too late to clean up the camp, and the supply map left behind would definitely be known to the enemy."
"According to the news from the third company, the enemy's location is south of Moshi Town, which is exactly in the direction of the armored base. The enemy has been trapped!"
The old American "Henderson" held a map, spread it out on the front of the jeep, and used the brothers' break to eat to explain tactics.
"As everyone knows, these days have just entered the pre-rainy season, and rainfall has increased significantly, causing the Mindan tribe to want to cross the Wulu River to stop us."
"There are not many places to cross the river..."
Li Chenghao covered his head with a banana leaf and nodded frequently.
There is another reason for the two sides to speed up the decisive battle, and that is that the pre-flood season has arrived early, and the heaviest rainfall every year falls in the deep mountains and old forests. Mosquitoes, flies, insects, poisonous snakes and beasts all come out to let loose, and no one can withstand it.
I remembered a word in the play and blurted out: "Halfway across and strike!"
Henderson nodded heavily: "The big boss has a profound understanding. It is indeed necessary to strike halfway across the river and attack when the enemy is crossing the river and cannot care about the head or tail."
"According to the maps we collected and mapped while stationed in northern Myanmar, there is actually only one place where we can cross the river to ambush us, the White River Bridge."
"A beam bridge that is specially designed to transport coal, oil and other materials, eight meters wide and one hundred and thirty meters long."
Li Chenghao nodded and said, "Just go there and beat him!"
Attacking halfway across the bridge does not necessarily require a river. When crossing the bridge, the team is loose and unable to quickly build bunkers and fortifications. It is still a good opportunity for a sneak attack.
This time, both sides have deployed their main forces. Once there is a head-on exchange of fire, there is no possibility of retreat. To retreat is equivalent to a complete defeat, and whoever loses is finished.
Li Chenghao looked at the brothers with their heads bare and taking off their coats. Most of the time they were soaked in the rain. There were an average of five people wearing a raincoat, and their shoes were filled with water. It hurt.
If you soak for two or three more days, your feet will be soaked. Fortunately, the rain in the previous flood season is intermittent and there is still sunshine. It would be a nightmare to fight guerrillas in the flood season.
If it hadn't been for supplies on the spot in towns along the way, we wouldn't have even had a hundred raincoats.
"Brother Hao, the brothers of the reconnaissance company found enemy troops crossing the bridge in front, and they were the main force of the Mindan Department." Seventeen hours later, one early morning, shortly after the security battalion arrived at Baihe Bay, Li Chenghao received the message from the scout brothers.
He received the news and asked eagerly: "How many people have passed?"
"Two-thirds of the personnel and equipment have crossed the bridge, at least 1,500 people and more than 30 vehicles," said the brother.
Li Chenghao raised his brows, looked at the high ground behind him, and thought: "Is the other party coming here?"
He gritted his teeth and said: "Let the brothers advance to the bridge in company units, pay attention to concealment, and be ready to fight at any time!"
"yes!"
The scout stood at attention and saluted in agreement.
The marching speed of the Mindan tribe was much faster than expected. Fortunately, all the troops of the two battalions were already gathered in their hands. They gathered like a ball of fire and scattered stars all over the sky. The tiger returning to the mountain will roar into the mountains and forests.
"Since there is no time for an ambush, let's have a good encounter." Li Chenghao looked ferocious and clenched his fists: "I just want to touch you."
"Mindan!"
All units are ready.
Li Chenghao stood behind a big tree and looked at the enemy troops reorganizing at the bridgehead and river beach. He picked up the phone, pulled out the antenna, dialed the phone directly and said: "Min Dan."
