Both off-road vehicles have large tires that set off the chassis very high, and they appear to have been specially modified. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When he came by helicopter yesterday, Zhuang Rui saw the roads around here, which were basically mountain roads, and if he was the RV before Hu Rong, he would definitely lie down if he couldn't walk two miles of road.

Zhuang Rui sat in a car with Peng Fei and Hu Rong, as well as a Burmese soldier from Mandalay and two other soldiers in a car with Professor Feng Chen.

Although along the way, the three Burmese soldiers did not speak much and remained silent all the time, but Zhuang Rui still felt that they were paying attention to the every move of themselves and others, that is, monitoring their own behavior, and on their waists, they were unabashedly hung in pistol holsters, Zhuang Rui did not suspect that there was no real guy there.

This made Zhuang Rui a little uncomfortable, because the purpose of his visit this time was not to investigate the jade mine, but to find the treasure from the forest.

Zhuang Rui is not so noble, what little Japan snatched, buddy is to take back to China to build Hope Primary School, which is better than cheapening these Burmese warlords.

After getting in the car, Zhuang Rui's car drove in front and slowly drove out of the city, don't look at Myitkyina's relatively poor, but the population is quite a lot, the narrow streets, full of children running bare-assed, so the car can't speed up at all, just a few kilometers, driving for nearly half an hour.

Thinking about the family planning that China has been engaged in since the end of the 70s of the last century, it is still very necessary, otherwise in the past few decades, I am afraid that the population will not be 1.6 billion by now, and it is very likely to double it again.

Originally, I thought that when I got to the outside of the city, the speed of the car could be accelerated a little, but Zhuang Rui couldn't help but smile bitterly when he looked at the small pebble paved road, this kind of road can't be driven fast at all, otherwise it is estimated that the tires will not be able to support Pa Kang.

Myitkyina is still the capital of Kachin State, and the roads are in such poor condition that the warlords are only concerned with grabbing territory, and no one cares about these things.

If you want to talk about Kachin State, it is actually the Jingpo people in our country, but the Jingpo people are much happier than them, at least they will not roll in the mud when they go out on rainy days.

After walking through a stone road, Zhuang Rui realized that he still thought that the journey to Hpakant was too simple, the road ahead was already completely dirty road, one high and one low, and the people in the car were dancing up and down with the bumps of the car, if it were not for the steep mountains here, Zhuang Rui would rather do a helicopter again.

This bump is bearable, but when he thinks of the plastic bombs and grenades in Peng Fei's bag, Zhuang Rui is a little restless, which makes Zhuang Rui feel like he is sitting on an explosives bag.

Zhuang Rui is not a military fan, and he doesn't know that plastic bombs will not explode even if they are burned without special detonation, but this heart is in vain.

"Hu ...... Brother Hu, I think we need to let the people of the Burmese government come to ...... If you go to the countryside of China to investigate, this road is a little worse......"

Zhuang Rui was divided into several paragraphs by the car's words, he saw those low wooden houses on both sides of the road, there were children running everywhere, and he couldn't help but think of a sentence that he often saw in rural China:

"If you want to be rich, have fewer children and build more roads. ”

This sentence is very suitable for Myanmar, which has gold, silver, copper mines and many gem mines, and the people's living standards are about the same as those of war-torn African countries, and the root cause of this is still the government.

"Brother, it's easy for you to say this, who cares, everyone here sweeps the snow in front of the door, and doesn't care about the frost on the tiles of others......"

After Hu Rong heard Zhuang Rui's words, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, he and Zhuang Rui spoke Chinese, and he was not afraid of being heard by the soldier, even if he heard it, it didn't matter, Hu Rong's family could stand tall in Myanmar for hundreds of years, not just money. ，

The Hu Rong family has been rooted in Myanmar for more than 100 years, and has witnessed the ups and downs of Myanmar in the past 100 years, so it can be said that it is the best witness and bystander.

At the beginning of the last century, Burma has always been a British colony, until later the British Empire lost its prestige and was driven out of Burma by Little Japan, and then with the help of China, Burma re-established its power and broke away from British rule.

It's just that due to the large number of ethnic groups in Myanmar, in addition to the government army, each place basically has its own local army, plus the Kuomintang rout in the Golden Triangle, Myanmar has always been a warlord separatist, wars are continuous, and each occupies the mountain as the king.

By the late 80s, the value of jadeite ore gradually became prominent, and the Myitkyina region became the focus of contention between government forces and local forces, and this dispute has not been completely subsided until now.

Although now Zhuang Rui and others are all singing and dancing, and they are all happy under the control of the government, but in fact, in Myitkyina, which is more than 150 kilometers long, and the various relationships are extremely complicated, and some small-scale wars often break out.

Hu Rong and the people in Hu Rong's family belong to the local forces, and the mine protection team trained by their family can become an army at a certain time, competing with the government army, and the current calm is only the result of the compromise of all forces.

Under such circumstances, including Hu Rong's family, no force is willing to invest funds in infrastructure construction, because this territory is yours today, and if you build it, maybe it will be robbed by others tomorrow, who is willing to do such a thankless thing.

Like the weapons carried by Zhuang Rui and Peng Fei, even if Hu Rong knew about it, he wouldn't care, those things, compared to the arsenal at home, were inconspicuous at all, and the security guards patrolling the periphery of his house were all AK47 submachine guns from the former Soviet Union on their backs.

In this area, people who don't have a little relationship background don't dare to go deep at all, otherwise they may be tied up by someone to have a meat ticket, if you are lucky, maybe you can redeem it with money, and if you are unlucky, you will make fertilizer for the flowers and trees in the jungle.

The car was really bumpy, Zhuang Rui was in no mood to speak, he held the deputy above the door with his hand, and looked around in the car boredly, which made him find some differences.

Zhuang Rui took a closer look, the car he was sitting in, the doors were reinforced with steel plates, and the window glass looked a little different from the usual glass, maybe it was the legendary bulletproof glass.

On the glass of the car in front of Zhuang Rui, there is a very conspicuous pass, according to Peng Fei's translation, it means "state guest", although there are not many cars encountered along the way, but they will take the initiative to pull over and make way for their convoy.

On the road from Myitkyina to Hpakant, there is basically a checkpoint every twenty or thirty kilometers, although it is only a vehicle stop made of a few logs, but it is very practical.

Every time he was far away from the checkpoint, Hu Rong would poke his head out and greet him in Burmese, and the soldiers seemed to know Hu Rong so much that they didn't even glance inside the car before moving the wooden shelves and letting the car pass.

After more than three hours of turbulence, Zhuang Rui and others arrived at Meng Gong, which was the important town from Myitkyina to Hpakant, and where the Chinese Expeditionary Force launched the Battle of the Meng Gong River Valley.

Here, the squadron commanded by Sun Liren occupied Bujieban Mountain in just one day, annihilating and killing more than 12,000 Japanese soldiers in total.

However, Zhuang Rui did not have time to mourn the deceased anti-Japanese generals this time, so after Hu Rong got off the car to go through some formalities and rest for more than half an hour, the two cars continued to drive to Hpakant.

After Meng Gong, the road became more and more difficult to walk, there was no road surface at all, and the off-road vehicle just followed the roadbed pressed out by the large truck carrying the rough stone, and moved forward with difficulty.

According to Hu Rong, a few decades ago, the jade miners who lacked machinery, just like the jade miners in Xinjiang, relied on their shoulders and arms to transport the jade out of the mountains, but their tools were replaced by donkeys from Xinjiang to elephants from Burma.

On both sides of this overgrown road, there are tall trees that can't be seen from the treetops, these trees are distributed on the mountains, which look a little gloomy, and Hu Rong said that there are all kinds of dangerous creatures hidden here, and every evening and early morning, there will be miasma, and many people who strayed into the forest rarely survived.

Hu Rong's words were terrifying, he was reflecting on his treasure hunt, it seemed that it was not as simple as he thought, the forest that even the light in the sky could not shine into, like the big mouth of a monster, black and devouring all the people and creatures that entered.

"Brother Hu, I heard that there are a lot of black bears in Myanmar, but we want to go hunting, but there is no chance in China......"

Peng Fei, who was sitting in the back row and had not spoken, suddenly interjected, with a curious look on his face, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but glance back at Peng Fei, he had retreated in his heart just now.

"Black bears do have them, the bear bile of that thing, but it's called liquid gold, but now the number is also very rare, Cheng, let's see if there is a chance in the next few days, I'll take the two of you to play......"

Hu Rong is not an animal protector, after hearing Peng Fei's words, he didn't hesitate much, and agreed in one bite.

And hunting in this part of Myanmar is a normal behavior, he will go to the mountains to put a few shots on his own, and shoot some pheasants or something to improve his food.
