It was originally the idea of ​​the garrison to connect the smuggling caravans outside the city in Tangcheng, but they discovered that the smuggling caravans they intercepted were actually Zhongtong's business. Zhang Jianghe didn't know that Tang Cheng already knew the inside story beforehand. The reason why he pretended not to know was just to drag Deputy Commander Huang of the garrison into trouble. The intercepted caravan supplies were temporarily stored at the garrison's farm outside the city, but Tang Cheng pretended to be unintentional and revealed the news to Zhang Jianghe.

Zhang Jianghe, who was worried about finding supplies, immediately passed the news through the contact point. Soon, members of the underground party organization disguised as businessmen obtained the supplies from the garrison and quietly transported them away. At this time, Zhang Jianghe was still secretly happy, but little did he know that in the following time, Tangcheng and the others attacked smugglers related to Zhongtong outside the city many times and seized a large amount of materials and arms. Zhang Jianghe thought he had found a channel to supply supplies, but he didn't know that this was exactly what Tangcheng wanted to see.

As time passed and the war on the frontline continued to change, the situation in Chongqing began to become chaotic. Tangcheng not only established a black market in Jiangbei, but also vacated the military barracks and turned it into a black market for European goods. Zhang Jianghe knew without any investigation that the European goods in the military camp must have been obtained by the foreign friend in Tangcheng. This foreigner named Hans looked mysterious and would disappear for a period of time. Zhang Jianghe was very worried about Tang Cheng.

But the development of things was beyond Zhang Jianghe's expectation, because he soon received an order from the military unification headquarters, and he was transferred to Myanmar to serve as the station chief of the military unification Myanmar station. At this time, it happened that the expeditionary force was attacking the Japanese army in Burma for the second time. Zhang Jianghe thought that the bureau chief wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to extend the general's tentacles into the army. But what he didn't expect was that among the headquarters personnel who were transferred to Myanmar with him, there were several people he had placed in the military unification headquarters.

Zhang Jianghe wanted to ask the bureau chief for clarification, but was told that the bureau chief's whereabouts in the past few days were kept secret. Zhang Jianghe had no choice but to act according to the order. Before leaving, Tang Cheng told him that it was best to wait for the expeditionary force to start a large-scale operation before entering Myanmar. Although he didn't want to admit it, Zhang Jianghe knew that Tang Cheng's grasp of the situation was indeed better than his own. According to Tang Cheng's instructions, after Zhang Jianghe arrived in Kunming, he led his people to stop here, waiting for the expeditionary force's large-scale operation to begin.

Facts have proved that after Zhang Jiang and them left Chongqing, the military command headquarters stopped paying attention to them and seemed to have forgotten them. When Zhang Jianghe left Chongqing, Tangcheng gave him a lot of money, and after arriving in Kunming, there were people from the Kunming Station of the Military Command who kept the secret. Zhang Jianghe and them stayed comfortably in Kunming for more than a month. After learning that the expeditionary force had launched operations and had successively defeated the Japanese army in Burma, Zhang Jianghe planned to lead people into Burma. At this moment, Hans, the foreign friend from Tangcheng, came to visit.

Knowing that Hans was here to escort him into Myanmar, Zhang Jianghe was full of doubts, and the so-called guards brought by Hans didn't look good. After the plane landed at the airport controlled by the British army, Zhang Jianghe walked out of the cabin and immediately saw several familiar faces. The two brothers from Tangcheng and Mr. Ma actually appeared at the airport controlled by the British army, and judging from the way they greeted the British army, they seemed to be very familiar with this place.

"Of course you are familiar with it! Because we helped build this airport! Once the British army continues to move south, this airport will be under our control!" Ignoring the slight cough of Mr. Ma next to him, Tang Hu, who was quite dark, rushed towards Zhang Jianghe said. Next, Zhang Jianghe and others who got off the plane were greeted into the car. In order to welcome Zhang Jiang and the group, Tang Hu and others had prepared several cars early. When the convoy left the airport, Zhang Jianghe, who didn't know where he was going, naturally wanted to find out.

But neither the Tang brothers nor Hans gave an answer. The motorcade leaving the airport sped along, and after a few hours, it stopped in a valley. "Uncle Zhang, welcome home!" Tang Hu, who had been silent along the way, smiled and helped Zhang Jianghe get out of the jeep. Looking in the direction of Tang Hu's finger, Zhang Jianghe saw neat houses, newly built ditches and fields, and many soldiers undergoing training.

Zhang Jianghe was not stupid. He had already sensed something strange in Tang Hu's words. After a night's rest and breakfast the next day, Zhang Jianghe was invited to the place where Tang Hu and the others used to hold meetings. This time, it was Hans, a foreigner, who came forward to answer Zhang Jiang's questions. "Zhang, we didn't hide it from you intentionally. In fact, we hid it from everyone, including Tang's family in Chongqing." When Hans spoke, several others nodded frequently.

"This matter should start from when the Tang family just went south to Chongqing. At that time, Tang was still bent on arresting the Japanese and puppet spies in Chongqing. Tang Jue believed that as long as he tried his best to arrest the Japanese and puppet spies, the military commander would At least the safety of him and his family would be guaranteed here. But he did not expect that the Central Government would still hold on to him, causing troubles one after another. Although the Japanese army defeated the expeditionary force, they could not control all areas of Myanmar. It happened that during an operation to intercept smugglers, Tang got a copy of the map."

"That map is a gold mine in northern Myanmar. It is a blind spot controlled by the Japanese army, and the indigenous forces are not strong." When the map appeared in Hans's words, Ma Ye took over. "Our idea at the time was just to control the gold mine and wait and see how the situation would change. If the situation deteriorated to the point where it was out of control, we would use the accumulation of the gold mine to look for opportunities to go south to Hong Kong and start over. Later, due to the successive changes in the Central Unification If they are looking for trouble, we just want to control a piece of territory here as a last resort."

"We didn't expect at the time that the indigenous people here were so easy to control. As long as we gave them food and clothing, they would work hard for us. As you saw yesterday, the area we control already has armed forces. Although the number is not It’s not too much, but with the weapons and equipment that Hans got from the British, we can even arm a regiment of troops. The Japanese army that the expeditionary force fought was retreating steadily, and what the British army wanted to control most was the southern part of Myanmar, where At least we and the local indigenous people are the only ones left."

Mr. Ma comes from a martial arts background, and he does not speak as clearly and eloquently as Hans, but Zhang Jianghe has already heard some meaning from Mr. Ma's words. Hans, who had been secretly observing Zhang Jianghe's reaction, said at this time, "Yes, it's what you think, we plan to completely control this place." Hans's words finally made Zhang Jianghe change his expression. After all, he controlled a city in northern Myanmar. gold mines and controlling the entire northern Myanmar are completely different things.

"The last time I went back to Chongqing, I was discussing this matter with Tang! Your transfer to northern Burma is just the first step of our plan! Next, we need the help of your intelligence station to obtain some weapons captured by the Japanese expeditionary force. equipment, such as tanks and armored vehicles. When you took people out of Chongqing, Tang had already organized those who were running out of food to go south here through the Jianghu forces in Chongqing. According to the news I got from the British army, they will go south soon. , only the local indigenous people will be left here.”

Zhang Jianghe waited patiently for Hans to finish speaking, then asked several questions in succession according to his own doubts, but Hans answered them one by one. "We now have 500 armed personnel, and in half a month, 300 bandits who have been recruited from China will come from China. These 800 people have all experienced actual combat. I believe that sweeping away the local indigenous people should not be a problem. Moreover, Once we become famous in northern Myanmar, overseas Chinese living in various parts of Myanmar will slowly gather here."

"According to our plan, Tang, who is far away in Chongqing, will continue to transfer people here in the future. In this regard, Chongqing's local garrison should be able to help. We estimate that at least it will be necessary Only three thousand armed personnel can initially control northern Myanmar. If we want to completely control northern Myanmar, we need to expand the number of armed personnel. Ten thousand is the number of armed personnel we estimate." Hans seemed to have regarded Zhang Jianghe as As a member of his own family, Hans did not hide anything about the plan.

What Tang Cheng is best at is action, but Zhang Jianghe doesn't know that Tang Cheng is also good at making plans, and it's such a huge plan. At first, Zhang Jianghe felt that Tangcheng's plan was a bit nonsense. It was not easy to control northern Myanmar! But when he calmed down and carefully thought about the plan Hans mentioned, he felt that it was not impossible to realize it. If it is true as Hans just said, as the war in Burma continues, both the expeditionary force and the British army will choose to continue southward.

Then, only the local indigenous people will be left in northern Myanmar. If there are three thousand armed forces, it should not be difficult to control northern Myanmar! "On the British side, we have already contacted a noble officer! We will provide him with a sum of funds to pay the inheritance tax. As long as the inheritance tax is paid, he can inherit the noble title and even be transferred back to the UK. Become an MP. With the backing of a local MP, the British troops here will not care about our entry into northern Myanmar and conflicts with local indigenous people."

Perhaps seeing Zhang Jianghe's hidden worries, Hans explained, "We have been doing smuggling of military supplies through the British army stationed in India, and most of the profits we made went to the upper echelons of the British army. And Fufu Compared with the southern part of Myanmar, northern Myanmar is just a useless land! Besides, the banner we are flying now is just to use this place to resettle and protect the overseas Chinese living in Myanmar!"
