Two days later, Tang Songyuan took Li Qingying on the journey to Pagan.
Also accompanying him were Liu Xiangqin and two bodyguards assigned to him by Tang Songyuan.
This girl didn't have many friends here, so Li Qingying suggested sending her to the Tang Mansion in Kokang Old Street so that she could get together with Zhou Muning.
Tang Songyuan left the country with the truck transporting oil. Not far from the Nanshan Town port, he met the mercenary group led by Luo Gang who came to meet them.
Luo Gang's skin became darker, but he was very energetic. When he saw Tang Songyuan get out of the car, he quickly greeted him with a smile and said:
"It just so happens that there are no combat missions these two days, so I came here in person."
Tang Songyuan stared at his arm and asked with concern: "Are you injured?"
"How did Mr. Tang find out?"
Luo Gang raised his right arm and said nonchalantly: "Actually, it's just a little skin injury. You don't need to apply any medicine. It will heal on its own in a few days."
Tang Songyuan frowned slightly and said: "So the recent battles have been very fierce, and even you were injured..."
Luo Gang said with a sneer: "It's not particularly intense. It's just bad luck on my part."
"Bullets don't have eyes. It's normal for them to get hit unexpectedly. Mr. Tang doesn't need to worry too much."
Seeing that there was no other serious problem with him, Tang Songyuan nodded and said, "That's okay. Let's get in the car first and talk as we walk."
On the way, Luo Gang reported the latest information about Kokang to Tang Songyuan.
Generally speaking, the war progressed relatively smoothly. Both sides suffered casualties, but the Allies had a slight advantage.
The Burmese army is slightly exhausted, but the military government's attitude remains tough.
Although the Allied forces have a slight advantage, they do not have much wealth. They are still struggling to support themselves and hope to fully achieve their strategic goals.
At the same time, the 'Da Xia' mercenary group headed by Luo Gang under the Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties had expanded to 130 people with the help of Luo Gang's old comrades.
Tang Songyuan hummed, and then asked: "How were the casualties among our brothers in the recent war?"
Speaking of this, a dark look flashed in Luo Gang's eyes, and he said:
"Some time ago, a team was ambushed by the Burmese army and lost two brothers. The remaining seven were all injured."
"Including those injured before, there are eleven people in total..."
Tang Songyuan said with some dissatisfaction: "What did Zhou Mu Ning do for food this week? How could he be ambushed?"
Luo Gang sighed and said: "Actually, Miss Zhou is not to blame for this matter. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and Miss Zhou has tried her best."
"If Miss Zhou hadn't given us great support in terms of intelligence during this period, we might have suffered more than just casualties."
"Including me, the brothers also know very well that there are no immortals on the battlefield..."
Tang Songyuan pondered for a long time and then asked: "How is the pension for the brothers who died in battle? Has it been paid out truthfully?"
Luo Gang nodded and said, "Mr. Tang, please rest assured. I, Old Luo, may be careless about other things, but there will never be any mistakes in this kind of thing."
Tang Songyuan said: "That's good. You don't have to worry about money. I had no intention of counting on the Daxia Mercenary Group to make money for me."
More than two hours later, Tang Songyuan arrived at Old Street under the escort of a mercenary group and entered the Tang Mansion.
The guards here are obviously much tighter than before, and there are also many unfamiliar faces.
Zhou Muning turned the huge Tang Mansion into her training base and recruited many local people to join her intelligence network, where she conducted professional and targeted training.
Zhou Muning had obviously known about Tang, Song and Yuan's itinerary for a long time, and had been waiting in the courtyard early.
When she saw the car stopped, she looked inside the car, then rushed over and opened the back seat door.
Seeing Liu Xiangqin, Zhou Muning had a bright smile on her face, took her hand and said happily:
"Xiangqin, you are finally here. It must be a smooth journey."
Liu Xiangqin Shi Shiran got out of the car and said: "It's okay!"
Be concise and concise, without being muddled.
Zhou Muning had long been accustomed to her personality and did not feel unhappy at all. Instead, she took Liu Xiangqin's hand and walked into the house without even looking at Tang Songyuan from beginning to end.
This girl still maintains a deep prejudice against the Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties.
Li Qingying and two female bodyguards also got out of the car. The former looked at Tang Songyuan and said, "I'm going to find a room to rest first. If you need anything, call me."
Tang Songyuan nodded lightly, and then accompanied by Luo Gang, he visited the training situation of the newly recruited intelligence personnel.
I have to say that Zhou Muning is really good at this.
In just a short time, the intelligence unit has begun to take shape and has certain practical operational capabilities.
After a while, Yang Zhicheng, who received the news, also rushed over.
Tang Songyuan met him in the hall of Tang Mansion.
However, Yang Zhicheng opened his mouth to complain: "Brother Tang, you don't know, it's not easy to be a housekeeper."
"Lao Peng only knows how to fight. If he has no money, he will only ask for it."
"As you know, Kokang is a place with little output and a weak industrial base. Agriculture is still at the same level as it was decades ago."
"Although we have confiscated the properties of the four major families, the money will only be used a little less..."
Tang Songyuan understood this and immediately said with a smile: "I didn't expect Brother Yang to cry about poverty sometimes."
Yang Zhicheng sighed: "There is no way. The purpose of the military government now is to delay, trying to drag us down completely."
"Although we have the upper hand on the current battlefield, our size is too small and we cannot defeat the opponent."
"Lao Peng can only take steps step by step and dare not make any bold advances..."
Tang Songyuan nodded lightly and said, "Let's do this. In my own name, I will provide the Allied Forces with an interest-free loan of 500 million yuan for a period of three years."
"What do you think, Brother Yang?"
Yang Zhicheng's eyes widened with joy. Many people now disliked them and felt that the Allied Forces would be defeated.
Tang, Song and Yuan were able to provide a loan of 500 million at once. If they failed in the end, the money would be completely wasted.
But Tang Songyuan didn't think so. What if he won?
Then he can become the largest oligarch in Kokang's 2,700 square kilometers of territory.
Yang Zhicheng said happily: "That's great, but brother Tang, please don't worry, we won't take your money in vain."
"Two new gem mines have been discovered in the Xishan District, and they are still completely undeveloped."
"I will use these two gem mines as collateral to take over the 500 million loan from Brother Tang. You can mine as you like in the past three years. Let's discuss things in three years' time..."
