Daozhai is the nail that Ye Qing sticks between the old Kachin thief and the decisive father, the kind that can make the two old bastards feel pain.
This is also the reason why Ye Qing promised Old Dao Master to sell them 1,500 Bayi Carryings at one time.
The reason why the Shan Army is a Shan Army, rather than becoming a local army like the Kachin and Kokang, is because they are too few in number and have too poor weapons.
But the mountain army also has the advantages of the mountain army. These ethnic groups who were born in the mountains are not only able to cross mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground, but they are also brave and good at fighting. The most important thing is that they have not read books and are easy to fool.
Zhengyi is mostly a dog-slaughterer, and he is talking about this kind of mountain king.
The Yunsheng Mu family only regarded Daozhai as a thug, asking endlessly for some benefits, and simply ignored the embarrassing situation of Daozhai after the three heroes of Muse took over Lashio.
But he cooperated with Daozhai, not only giving them huge profits.
Moreover, he also helped him deal with the government troops, the Kachin army and even the Chinese government.
"Rome was not built in a day, and it has not been recovered even if it takes hundreds of years. The Grand Master is trying to undermine its success."
Grand Master Luozhu touched his long eyebrows as white as snow: "I am getting old, and there is always an urgency that time cannot wait for me. The cunning tiger, the greedy wolf, and the white fox are all my children. I know exactly what they are thinking.
Now, Wu Rui is also interested in Kokang's gold mine, which is a golden opportunity for them. "
Ye Qing nodded, and Grand Master Luo Zhu spoke out his thoughts without any secret. This was treating him as Bai Hu's husband, a true one of his own.
It is not an easy task to persuade Wu Rui to use troops against Kokang.
Once the cannon is fired, gold is worth ten thousand taels. Once the war starts, the daily consumption is astronomical.
Because of this, the government troops held down the Kachin Independence Army, which had a mine at home, and the Benglong Army fought hard.
But they chose to ignore the Kokang Army who occupied the Golden Triangle.
This is because no rare mineral deposits were originally discovered in the Golden Triangle, and the hugely profitable industry they relied on to survive was the cultivation of opium poppies.
Therefore, the last time King Peng Tian declared the independent establishment of the Kokang District, the government forces spent countless costs to occupy the old market, but they withdrew decisively within two years and handed the old market back to local forces.
This is because the government forces discovered that there is no other profitable business in the entire Golden Triangle except poppy cultivation.
Sending troops to garrison Lao Cai City to control the Golden Triangle consumes a large amount of military expenditures every day.
Unless the military government is also growing opium poppies to manufacture drugs, regardless of the public opinion and sanctions of the international community.
Otherwise, continuing to occupy Kokang will be a loss-making business, and it will be a pity to abandon it if it is tasteless.
Therefore, as long as the Kokang District does not declare independence and statehood, the military government will acquiesce in Kokang independence and autonomy.
However, this time, Cunning Tiger seized a fake gold Buddha worth 200 million, which completely aroused Wu Rui's possessiveness in the Kokang District.
Even if we don't take down the entire Kokang, we still have to occupy this gold mine.
And this is also an opportunity for the three Cunning Tiger brothers to take revenge.
Cunning Tiger, with greasy hands, walked out quickly, raised his hands and hugged Ye Qing: "I shot a deer during the day. I was having a barbecue just now, so I didn't come out to greet my brother."
"As a family, we don't need to be so polite!"
After looking at the white building, Ciaohu said with a smile: "The three girls are taking a bath upstairs. Do you want Adi and Boss Qi to take a bath first?"
In the rainy season in northern Myanmar, the weather is no longer hot, but the humidity makes people more uncomfortable.
The dragon stone Pixiu hanging around Ye Qing's neck was like an air conditioner, keeping him always cool.
But Qi Yu can't.
Qi Yu dealt with the white fox the most. Although he had met the cunning tiger a few times, he had no chance to speak.
The soldiers in northern Myanmar were very vicious to the Chinese merchants. Therefore, the boss was a little flattered when he called out to the boss. He quickly said with a gentle smile: "Just wash your face, we will have to cut the stone later."
"Adi found a stone again." Ciaohu said with a smile: "The stone cutting machine and stone polishing machine that Amin prepared for Adi are at the back. How big is the stone? How about asking a few soldiers to help move it."
"Not big, not big!" Ye Qing quickly waved his hand and opened the trunk: "The largest one is more than 20 kilograms, and the small one is only a dozen kilograms. It costs three yuan in total. Let's just do it ourselves."
Cunning Tiger also knew that Ye Qing didn't let the soldiers take action because he was worried that they might throw a stone carelessly. He should first pick up a big piece and walk towards the white building.
Qi Yu also hugged one piece, leaving the youngest one to Ye Qing.
Ye Qing held the stone, one step behind Grand Master Luo Zhu, and walked towards the White Building.
"Little Ye Zi, do you know how much it costs to train 10,000 young people into soldiers, and how much it costs to raise an army of 10,000 people every day?"
"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight." Ye Qing said with a smile: "This is the price of being king and hegemony."
"But with the income from Muse and Lashio's taxes, casinos, and bathing centers alone, even if they can support an army of 10,000 people, they are just beggar soldiers."
Grand Master Luozhu sighed: “Especially when you ask Cunning Tiger and Greedy Wolf to pay each soldier a salary of one thousand yuan per month.
This expenditure alone is 10 million per month, and they also have to buy them clothes, take care of their meals, and equip them with new weapons. "
Raising 10,000 soldiers and raising 1,000 soldiers are definitely two different concepts.
The original Tiger Camp was not only the garrison of Muse, but also the thugs of casinos and bathing centers.
In addition, Baihu went to Jiegao and Delong made loan sharks, so he could barely survive.
But now there are a total of 10,000 troops, and the wages are still high.
So far, with Ye Qing's help, there is no shortage of military funds.
However, we can't keep asking Ye Qing for money!
Even a cunning tiger and a greedy wolf want face.
"Although it takes a lot of money and a long time to recruit new soldiers and train them into an army, I believe that the army must maintain its purity and not be mixed with various forces."
Ye Qing said seriously: "As for financial resources, isn't it money to occupy the Burma Highway?"
"Where does the money come from?" Ciaohu turned around and asked.
"Logistics companies and passenger transport companies traveling to and from Lashio and Mandalay must pay a protection fee to the mountain troops in various places every year." Before Ye Qing could speak, Qi Yu spoke first: "Although this amount of money is not much, every If all the mountain army checkpoints are met, it becomes a huge expense.”
"Now the Muse to Lashio section of the Yunnan-Burma Highway is in the hands of the two elder brothers." Ye Qing saw Master Luo Zhu and Ciao Hu listening attentively and said with a smile:
"As long as we open up the road from Mandalay to Lashio, even if we only collect half of the fees paid by passing merchants to the mountain troops, it will be enough to support the army's expenses."
"There is another way. The logistics company established by Sister Amin and Ma Rui can take over half of the business from Mandalay to Muse. This money can also support the expenses of the 10,000-strong army."
"My brother prefers that method." Ciaohu asked seriously.
