: Mongla Army joins the battle

At the Mongla Military Camp, when Wu Teng drove Lin Bangde here in a jeep, he found that many troops had already gathered here.

Even the rare armored vehicles and armed pickup trucks in the Mongla army, which are regarded as ‘heavy’ equipment among the guerrillas, have also been assembled.

“The old man is preparing to spend a lot of money.” Lin Bangde, who jumped out of the jeep, looked at the troops assembled on the campus, which numbered at least five or six thousand, and sighed: “If we lose here, Mongla will probably defend If you can’t stop, you have to go back to the mountains and forests of the Northeast to fight guerrillas.”

The area occupied by the Mongla Army is the northeastern border area of Myanmar. The dense jungle makes it difficult to walk here. There are few roads that can be walked. The only good road is No. 4 from Jingdong to Mongla. Highway line branches.

Most of the Mongla Army’s troops were deployed around Mongla County, mainly targeting Jingdong City in the south.

Therefore, when the order to assemble was given, the Mongla Army could assemble half of its strength in a short period of time.

“The army that attacked Jingdong was too aggressive. The Southern Wa State rushed to attack Jingdong just a few days after it was captured. Once Jingdong falls, or Wu Mengtai leads the 141st Division to surrender, their next target will definitely be We are attacking Mongla County along the highway. Whether we attack or not is not up to us.” Wu Teng followed Lin Bangde, analyzing the current situation.

“Old man! I’m back!” As they spoke, the two of them had arrived at the headquarters of the military camp, and Lin Bangde shouted carelessly.

Inside the headquarters, Lin Ming, who was in his seventies, was discussing the battle plan with his senior officers of the Mongla Army.

Seeing Lin Bangdang coming back, Lin Ming was furious and said in a deep voice: “You still know how to come back!”

“Oh, after all, it’s such a big deal.” Lin Bangdang sat down on the chair next to Lin Ming, leaned back, put his feet on the edge of the table, and took out a bag from his pocket while his hands were not idle. Pack of cigarettes and started puffing away.

“Commander-in-Chief.” Wu Teng stood at attention and saluted Lin Ming.

Lin Ming pointed at Wu Teng and said to Lin Bond: “If you have one-tenth of Xiao Wu’s character, I can safely hand over the Mongla Army to you.”

“Didn’t you accept Lao Wu as your godson? Don’t worry, with his help, I can still maintain my status.” Lin Bond was very self-aware of himself.

Lin Ming was extremely angry, but when he thought about the current situation, he still let out a breath.

Lin Ming spent his entire life fighting in northern Myanmar, rising from a small soldier to the Chief of Staff of the 815th Military Region of the Myanmar United Army. After the Union Army collapsed, he led his troops to separatist forces.

The previous children all died young due to various reasons. Lin Bangdang was his son at the age of fifty, and he was extremely precious.

Wu Teng was the child of Lin Ming’s comrade-in-arms. Because his father died when he was young, he was brought up by Lin Ming. He and Lin Bond were as close as brothers since childhood.

And he grew up in the Mongla Army and has outstanding abilities. He was already a major staff officer of the Mongla Army when he was only in his twenties.

After Lin Ming calmed down, he began to say to everyone: “According to the information from the Wa State Army, the enemy has heavy equipment such as tanks, armored vehicles, and fighter planes. It is not yet sure which country is behind it, but Jingdong must not fall into their trap.” Otherwise, the next target of their attack will definitely be us.”

The disastrous defeat of the Kokang Army has served as a reminder to other warlords that they cannot wait for the enemy to attack at their doorstep before reacting, otherwise the territory of these warlords will easily be wiped out.

Especially like Mongla Army, the central city has highway lines connecting the outside.

“Bao Youxiang’s troops are still gathering. In about two days, they will launch an attack from Dabang Town to the northeast and west of Jingdong.”

“We have two operational objectives. One is to deploy an ambush position on the highway from Jingdong to Mongla to destroy bridges and roads. The second is to detour to the east of Jingdong City and launch an attack on the enemy’s flank.”

“We do not fight the enemy in the plains of Jingdong, but engage in guerrilla warfare around the jungle terrain around Jingdong!”

“The enemy’s weapons and equipment are well-equipped and they must need a lot of supplies, so the harassment of Highway 4 is a top priority.”

Lin Ming was worthy of being a veteran warlord in northern Myanmar. He was well versed in the essence of jungle guerrilla warfare and could see the key to this battle at a glance.

It would be difficult for an army like the Myanmar government army to gain a foothold in the dense jungles of northern Myanmar.

After assigning combat missions to each unit, Lin Bond asked: “Old man, what about me?”

“Just stay in Mengla and don’t go anywhere!” Lin Ming said angrily.

“No, how can such a fun thing like fighting be omitted from me? It’s not like I haven’t fought those drug dealers before.” Lin Bond said excitedly.

Although he was pampered by his father, Lin Bangde, who grew up in the environment of northern Myanmar, was not afraid of death. He would occasionally lead Wu Teng and his elite soldiers to fight against hostile drug dealers in the Golden Triangle.

But Lin Ming knew that those drug dealers were small-scale armed forces with no climate, with dozens of people, and it was considered large to occupy a village.

What we have to face this time is a mysterious army that can beat the government troops in Jingdong to pieces.

Wu Teng also stood up and said: “Commander-in-Chief, let me take the young marshal to participate in the sneak attack on Route 4. After all, the young marshal will always take over your position. It would be better to train earlier.”

Lin Ming looked at Wu Teng and saw on his determined face that he still had something to say.

Lin Ming knew that if this battle failed, the Mongla Army would cease to exist. He was already over seventy years old, and he would die when he died. But with his son’s character, it would be difficult for him to be an ordinary person. He would probably follow Like Kunsha’s fourth son, he led the remaining troops to fight guerrillas in the jungle.

Finally, Lin Ming sighed and agreed to Wu Teng’s suggestion.

Lin Bangde jumped for joy, while Lin Ming ordered the troops to move out with hesitation.

The Mongla Army joined the war.
