Happy Tycoon

The Burmese government army does not have a regiment-level organization. The government army has major military regions and several mobile divisions. Directly below the division level is the battalion level, and a battalion has about 2,100 people.

In terms of numbers, a battalion of the Burmese government army is almost equivalent to a regiment of the Chinese army.

As a main battalion under the northern military region under the Myanmar government army, Chiron has been stationed in Myitkyina, Kachin State for the past two years. In the 1960s and 1970s, the Kokang King Peng Jiasheng, who was particularly violent, suddenly went into seclusion in the late 1970s. The entire Kachin Army was leaderless, so the government forces easily controlled most of Kachin State.

However, what people did not expect was that King Kokang, who had been living in seclusion for several years, suddenly came back and rose strongly in a very short period of time. Where did you get the advanced weapons, and the government army was defeated.

In the mountainous and forested landform of northern Myanmar, the number of troops is no longer the key factor in deciding a war. It seems that before Peng Jiasheng rose again, there were more than 50,000 troops stationed in the entire Kachin State, and there were ten battalions with a total of more than 20,000 troops stationed in Myitkyina alone.

But under such circumstances, Peng Jiasheng only used a small elite death squad of about ten people, and directly took over the Northeast Military Command of the government troops stationed in Myitkyina.

As a result, Myitkyina, which had more than 20,000 troops, immediately became a mess after losing the highest command organization, and was driven out of Myitkyina in one go by the Kachin Army with only a few thousand people. Among them, Chiron's main battalion was wrapped up by the defeated army in a daze and retreated again and again.

For a professional soldier, this kind of muddle-headed failure is the greatest shame for Chiron.

When the defeated army gained a firm foothold after retreating hundreds of kilometers, Chiron also led his men to launch a counterattack against the Kachin Army. Given the terrain, the Kachin army can block the counterattack of thousands of government troops with only a few hundred people.

There are dangerous terrains in northern Myanmar where one man guards the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it. As long as the Kachin army occupies these dangerous terrains, the government army will have no choice but to have more numbers.

Under such circumstances, Chiron proposed to go north along the Qindun River from the west, and then raid Mogang controlled by the Kachin Army via the Wulu River.

This plan seems to be a good plan, but it is very difficult to actually implement it. The west line is not as easy to travel as the central line and the east line, in the 1980s. There are almost no roads on both sides of the Qindun River. Although the government army can mobilize only a dozen inland river gunboats, this small 30-ton gunboat can't pull many people at all.

If Chiron's troops want to follow the gunboat all the way north, they need to forcibly open a road in the primeval jungle and mountains.

This is a very dangerous and difficult job. The straight-line distance from Griva, the small town where the government troops boarded the ship, to Hongmarin is more than 200 kilometers, and almost all of them are uninhabited areas. Moreover, the amount of water in the Qindun River in September is still very large. If it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration to advance 200 kilometers under such circumstances, it is basically equivalent to death.

The Western Front is simply nowhere to go! This is something that the Kachin Army knows, so the Kachin Army has no defense at all in the west.

There is no need to fortify at all, nature has already set up the best line of defense for the Kachin army.

Of course, Chiron knew that this route was difficult, but since he proposed this method, he had already thought of a way to deal with it.

Chiron's way of opening up the route from the west was very simple and brutal. After all, it was a government army, so Chiron directly asked his superiors for more than 300 elephants, and used the elephants to open the way directly in the jungle.

With elephants opening the way on land and gunboats transporting supplies along the river, Chiron's main battalion is progressing smoothly on the western front. Although it took them more than half a month to travel more than 200 kilometers from Griva to Hongmalin, they also opened up a road from south to north, which is of great strategic significance.

Hong Malin in the 1980s was just a small village, far from what it would be like in the northern part of Sagaing State thirty years later. After Chiron's troops arrived at Hongmarin, they only made some repairs, replenished their supplies, and followed the gunboat all the way eastward.

After arriving at the Wulu River, it is better to walk on both sides of the Wulu River, because some bosses at the entrance of the emerald field will transport the rough jadeite from here to Hongmalin, and then take a boat from Hongmalin to Yangon, so this There are still dirt roads to go on.

In this way, Chiron's troops walked along the Wulu River for three days, completed the journey of more than a hundred kilometers, and then directly raided the Damukan mining area in the dark.

The battle at the Moge Diechangkou is progressing smoothly. The warehouse area of ​​the mining area centered on the Mogdichangkou is located not far from the south bank of the Wulu River. The heavy firepower on the gunboat can easily attack on the warehouse area. Especially those two 37mm high-level dual-purpose guns are simply unsolvable killers here.

Chiron is very clear that once the battle starts here, the Hangba field on the other side of the Moon Crescent Mountain will definitely know, so Chiron adheres to the purpose of fighting fast, leaving a few gunboats and hundreds of soldiers to continue fighting. While encircling and suppressing Moge Diechangkou, he led the main force to advance quickly, trying to directly capture this field before Hangbachangkou had time to react.

After all, this is an emerald mining area. Although there are big pits everywhere, there are roads everywhere-whether you use elephants to transport rough jade stones or use people to transport rough jade stones, you need roads.

The main force led by Chiron quickly bypassed the Crescent Moon Mountain and arrived at the mining area centered on Hangbachangkou. This mining area is also the hinterland of the Damukan mining area. As long as it is occupied here, the entire Damukan mining area will be completely captured.

According to the guidance of the guide, Chiron knew that the building standing on a small high ground was the common warehouse area of ​​several mines in this mining area.

Commander, this warehouse area is not easy to chew on. Judging by this posture, we must have already made preparations here. Look, the fires on the cordon are all burning, and there are machine guns on the four turrets. If we take the risk Otherwise, the brothers will suffer a lot if they attack.

That's right, boss, this area is about 30 meters higher than the river, and it's far away from the river. Our gunboats can't support it. Filling it with human life won't fill this big hole!

The one who spoke was the deputy battalion commander, and the other was the company commander of the company, both of whom were Chiron's most trusted subordinates. Chiron led a few main men and some soldiers in a forest less than 400 meters away from the warehouse area, looked at the situation there with binoculars, and discussed how to take down the warehouse area.

The company commander of the second company looked at the company commander of the first company with disdain and said: Sir, let's go to the second company! Our second company promises to take down this warehouse area. And didn't the guide just say that there is a new warehouse area in this warehouse area? The warehouse set up at the opening of the market has been open for a year, but no jadeite has been shipped out, and all of them have been piled up in this warehouse. If we win this warehouse, at least we can get thousands of tons of jadeite! With this money, battalion commander, your strength will skyrocket immediately, and the hard work of our battalion these days will be worth it.

As Chiron's right-hand men, the first company commander and the second company commander are at odds with each other. As long as they are not involved in the war, the competition between the two is still very fierce.

Of course, Chiron knew the value of this warehouse. Taking this warehouse not only means completely taking down the entrance of this area, but also getting thousands of tons of rough emerald stones. At the mouth of the Mog stack just now, there were only three to four hundred tons of rough jadeite in a huge warehouse area, which made Chiron very disappointed.

The reason why he proposed such a military plan, and personally led his soldiers to travel long distances to attack from the western front, is that the Kachin army is indeed undefended on the western front, and another more important reason is because this is the emerald mining area .

Even though they belong to the government army, there are also many mountains inside the government army. If you can receive all the emeralds from the three mining areas of Damukan, Xiangdong and Lao Pagan along the way during this military operation Here, it is undoubtedly a huge windfall.

The wages of avarice is death! Facing such a high-value emerald, it would be nonsense for Chiron not to be tempted.

The deputy battalion commander said: Boss, if we use RPG to knock down the four turrets of this warehouse, it is not impossible to lose the warehouse area if we fight for a little bit. Although the warehouse area occupies a good location and the walls are very It is strong, but once the four turrets that pose the greatest threat are knocked down, our people will definitely be able to break through. As long as we can reach under the wall, then this warehouse will not be able to escape!

After a pause, the deputy battalion commander continued: Look, although the lights in the four turrets are turned off, we don't have flares. Let our people stand in position with the rocket launchers. Once a few flares are fired, our people You can launch the bazooka immediately, and you can knock down these four in one go

Before the deputy battalion commander finished speaking, Chiron was horrified to find that the head of his most sincere deputy suddenly looked like a watermelon smashed by a big hammer. The eyes are torn apart.

Chiron even clearly saw that because of the loss of his head, the blood gushing from his neck was two or three meters high, and the falling blood was like a rainstorm, drenching Chiron's head and face.

And this is not over, the second company commander who insisted on leading the team to capture the warehouse area just now suddenly had a big hole in his waist, this big hole is so big that Chiron can even see the first company commander through this big hole. The legs, the upper body and the lower body of the Second Company Commander are only connected with two streaks of flesh and blood.

A cloud of blood suddenly burst out from the fourth company's thigh opposite, and then the fourth company's entire thigh disappeared so abruptly, some fine bone scum splashed on Chiron's arm. Several soldiers nearby also lost arms and legs in an instant, and a soldier had a big hole in his chest.

Chiron lay down on the ground almost subconsciously. The moment he just lay down, there was a sharp whoosh sound in the air. Chiron knew that it was the sound of bullets piercing the air.
