Chapter 477: Am I Too Selfish?
Qiu Fang knows very well how important the Burma strategy is to the large-scale development of the western region that Yang Weiping is carrying out in China.
The railway and highway from Mingkun in Yunnan Province to Myitkyina in northern Myanmar have been fully started.
In Myanmar, the construction of railways and roads from Sittwe port to Mandalay is also in full swing.
Once these two railway arteries are connected, the western part of China will have an outlet to the sea, and this outlet can not only enter the Indian Ocean through the Bay of Bengal, but also through the Bay of Bengal!
Once this strategy is realized, the first and second island chains carefully constructed by US imperialism will be in vain.
Due to problems left over from history, the Chinese government stopped providing military assistance to the Burmese Communist Party.
Yang Weiping has had many in-depth discussions with the No. 1 leader on this issue, but he has never been able to convince the other party. The reason for Chief No. 1 is very simple: China already occupies a strategic advantage in the Indochina Peninsula, and if it intervenes in Burma's domestic political situation, it will inevitably arouse the hostility of the United States and the Soviet Union. At the beginning of the expansion of the Annam War, China had already taken a great political risk, but it was impossible to do the same!
In desperation, Yang Weiping could only rely on himself and support the Yang Tusi family in northern Myanmar to unify the northern Myanmar region through the Panshi mercenaries. Anyway, he is also surnamed Yang, and he said that his ancestors have a relationship with the Yang Tusi family, and no one can find out whether it is true or false.
Private behavior is completely different from government behavior.
Besides, now the attention of the USSR is on Afghanistan, and the United States is also eyeing Afghanistan and Iran. There is already a lot of fighting in Myanmar, and mercenary organizations are involved in the civil war in Myanmar, and even the United Nations can only turn a blind eye.
If not taking into account the needs of the Myanmar strategy. How could Yang Weiping spend so much money to set up an aircraft carrier fleet for Panshi.
Yang Weiping's thoughts, the Field family also knows it.
Burma, once an exclusive colony of the British Empire. It's just that after the end of World War II, the British Empire lost the glory of the empire on which the sun never set. The current economic weakness in the world has made the British government even more anxious.
Tiangong Group intends to invest in Myanmar to build a railway artery connecting Mingkun in China, with the aim of creating a transportation line for various industrial products manufactured by many industrial enterprises invested by Tiangong Group in China.
So, under the operation of the Field family. The British government has not only turned a blind eye to the movements of the Rock mercenaries in Burma. It also encouraged British business consortiums to invest along the railway artery. Because this is the perfect opportunity for the British Empire to once again reach into South Asia after the end of World War II!
Seeing that he was going to discuss with the Chinese government about the renewal of the Hong Kong contract, but. The strong military strength of the Chinese army in the Annam War. The newly inaugurated British Prime Minister, Mrs. Tearcher, felt a great deal of pressure.
Now there is an opportunity to follow the Rock Company to occupy a territory in Myanmar. If the port of Sittwe can be developed and the transportation line connecting southwest China can be used, it may be possible to turn Sittwe into a second Hong Kong.
Based on this strategic thinking. The Iron Lady secretly instructed the British military to let the more than 2,000 British retired officers and soldiers who joined the Rock Mercenaries fully assist the Rock Mercenaries. We will strive to end the civil war in Myanmar as soon as possible, achieve peace and help the people of Myanmar develop their economy.
The British government's wishful thinking, Yang Weiping has not yet noticed it, but Qiu Fang faintly feels that something is wrong. Because she found that those British mercenaries fought like chicken blood when they started fighting, they were much braver than mercenaries of other nationalities, and they were not worse than Chinese mercenaries at all.
In a courtyard in the Houhai Wangfu Hutong in Beijing.
Yang Weiping stood in front of the mirror and dressed up, preparing to go out to the airport to pick up his fiancΓ©e Ye Xiaoqiao.
Ye Jianxiong deliberately told him about Ye Xiaoqiao's flight times, of course he couldn't pretend not to know the truth.
As soon as I got into the back seat of the Range Rover driven by Meng Shouzheng, the mobile phone rang.
took out his mobile phone and saw that the caller ID was the word "Sister Fang", Yang Weiping pressed the answer button a little impatiently.
"Sister Fang, it's me. Where are you now? Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, Wei Ping, is it convenient for you to speak now?" Qiu Fang's voice sounded very calm.
"Convenient!" Yang Weiping replied categorically: "If you have something, you can just say it." β
"I'm being bold now. Qiu Fang said very calmly: "A few days ago, the government army of southern Burma launched a large-scale offensive, which was repulsed by us, and only ceased fire yesterday. β
"Sister Fang, are you okay?" Yang Weiping felt nervous for no reason, and asked with concern: "You're not injured, are you?"
"Tongtong and I have nothing to do. Qiu Fang seemed to feel Ailang's concern, and her tone unconsciously became soft, "Wei Ping, I'm sorry for worrying you." β
"Dog, Japan, the government army, didn't these grandsons already negotiate with the Kokang side not long ago?" Yang Weiping scolded a little angrily.
"I guess those guys in South Burma saw the Rock Fleet go away, so they thought it was an opportunity. Qiu Fang smiled indifferently: "In this battle, we have greatly damaged the vitality of the government and army of South Burma. However, the Kokang People's Army is also broken. In the short term, there shouldn't be any big battles to fight. β
"Sister Fang, we must not be careless with the government army!" Yang Weiping solemnly admonished: "In Burma, we must be mentally prepared for a long-term war. β
"Well, Wei Ping, this battle is more expensive. I'm almost out of money. β
"How much do you need, I'll transfer it to you right away!" Yang Weiping said categorically without asking.
"This time 56 mercenaries were killed and 90 were disabled, bringing the total number of mercenaries participating in the war to 5,248. After the battle, I paid all the commissions that needed to be paid, and the relevant provocation money was also paid. If ......"
"You have to spend what you should spend, and fighting a war is originally a burning of money. Yang Weiping smiled disapprerovingly: "I'll pull out 200 million US dollars for you first, and the required arms and materials will be counted separately." It should be able to last for a while. In addition, the two submarines that the Soviet Union owes me have also been completed, and I am about to call you to arrange for someone to come and pick up the cargo. You notify the fleet right away. Suspend military exercises with the Huaxia South China Sea Fleet, and immediately return to Sittwe Port to prepare for war after receiving the submarine. β
"Well, the reason why the losses in this battle are so great is that we don't have air fire support. Qiu Fang's silver teeth gritted lightly and said: "When the fleet comes back, we must make the South Burma government and government army look good!"
"Hehe, when our thirty strong five B2s join the war, it will definitely make the South Burmese government and government chickens fly and dogs jump!" Yang Weiping said with a wicked smile: "As for the dozens of piston fighters in the hands of the Burmese Air Force during World War II, we can destroy them all at once." β
The Burmese Air Force at this time did not even have a single jet fighter. Thirty Qiang-5 B2 carrier-based aircraft can definitely run rampant in the skies over Myanmar.
"Wei Ping. I've got something to tell you. Qiu Fang's tone turned serious. "The Field family has given us a lot of support in this battle. Many of the munitions were even sent through the transport ships of the British Navy. And, I found out. A British mercenary in the Rock Mercenaries. Morale is high. Fighting bravely, I feel a little abnormal. β
"Oh?" Yang Weiping asked intently, "What is the progress of the construction of the railway and highway from Sittwe to Mandalay?"
"Because of the fighting, some sections of the road have stopped. Qiu Fang replied, "But I heard Husfeld mention it last time. Chata Bank and the National Bank of England are interested in providing large loans to our railway companies. Recently, many British businessmen have been investing in cities along the route. If there is political stability in Burma, I believe that a large number of British businessmen will come to invest in Burma. β
"I understand!" Yang Weiping raised his eyebrows in sudden realization, "Mrs. Tearcher's sense of smell is really sensitive. I think she must have had a deep conversation with the elder field and guessed my strategic layout in Burma. Hehe, that's a good thing! I'm afraid they won't come!"
"Wei Ping, you have to think about it, but don't let the British get cheap when we are busy. Qiu Fang reminded with concern.
"Don't worry, Sister Fang, I'm not that stupid. Yang Weiping said with a smile: "The British government is now eager to get rid of the large number of unemployment it is facing at home, and it urgently needs to stimulate the country's economic recovery through foreign investment." The investment of British businessmen in China gave them a taste of sweetness. Now that the new Cabinet has identified potential business opportunities in Burma, I will certainly not be able to conceal Mrs. Chelle's intentions from her with a strategic vision.
The development of the railway from Sittwe to Mandalay is beyond our means. If the British government can intervene, it can relieve me a lot of financial pressure. The only thing I need to consider is how to hold the controlling stake in Tiangong South Asia Railway Company, which will be put into operation in the future!"
"Wei Ping, if the British get involved, will it attract the attention of the Americans?" Qiu Fang asked worriedly.
"If I were still the director of the China Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, the Americans would definitely intervene. Yang Weiping's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said leisurely: "But I have been removed now, perhaps, I can put on a good show for the Americans." β
"What? You were dismissed? When was this? What is the reason?" Qiu Fang was obviously anxious, and asked repeatedly.
"Someone turned over the Luojiayu incident back then to find trouble with me. Yang Weiping smiled lightly: "It's just a crime to add to it." The main reason is that I have offended too many people in the country in the past two years. β
"Isn't there no evidence for what happened back then?" Qiu Fang asked anxiously.
"If you want to discredit someone, sometimes you don't need evidence. Yang Weiping smiled indifferently: "Actually, I still had a tail that was not completely smoothed out." Luo Jiliang, deputy director of the Jinyang County Detention Center, told me the time and place of your execution. Although they have no evidence, as long as Luo Jiliang tells this matter, I am seriously suspicious. β
"Wei Ping, what should I do then, will they arrest you?" Qiu Fang was so anxious that she cried.
"With my current status, how can it be so easy to deal with me!" Yang Weiping comforted: "Sister Fang, don't worry, it's a big deal that I'm not in the country anymore, but in foreign countries, I can be more at ease." And I could have spent more time with you. β
"Wei Ping, then you should go abroad quickly!" Qiu Fang hurriedly persuaded: "The night is long and there are many dreams, as long as you go out of the country, those people will not be able to arrest you." You come to Burma, and I can give you back the rock. I'm tired, I'm a woman, and I really can't bear to run such a big company. Wei Ping, come over quickly! I miss you so much......"
"Sister Fang, I miss you too, but now I can't leave. Yang Weiping sighed and said: "I have too many military secrets, and if I don't handle the handover of work, the state will not let me leave easily." I am safe now, and no one dares to restrict my personal freedom. When the time comes, I promise to see you as soon as possible. β
"Then you have to talk to me on the phone every day during this time, otherwise I won't worry. Qiu Fang said in a coquettish voice.
"No problem, I promise to call you every day. Yang Weiping replied with an oath.
At this time, Yang Weiping suddenly heard Luo Xiaotong's voice faintly coming from the microphone: "Mother, are you talking to Uncle Ping?"
"Well, it's your Uncle Ping's phone. "This is Qiu Fang's voice.
"I want to talk to Uncle Ping, mother, can you give me your phone?" Luo Xiaotong seemed to be coquettish.
"Okay, I'll tell you Uncle Ping. Wei Ping, don't say more, Tongtong wants to talk to you, I gave her the phone. β
Immediately after, Luo Xiaotong's happy voice came from the microphone: "Uncle Ping, my dear Uncle Ping, guess who I am?"
"Of course it's my girl. Yang Weiping was like a loving father talking to his beloved daughter, and laughed loudly: "Girl, I haven't seen you call me for so long, why don't you miss your Uncle Ping at all?"
"Alas, Uncle Ping, do you think I don't want to, my mother and I are fighting every day during this time! Uncle Ping, you don't know what to do, our war is raging all day long, and people are dying every day, so my mother and I don't dare to be distracted at all. β
"Girl, are you afraid?"
"How can it! Uncle Ping, I'm Luo Xiaotong, the little witch Luo Xiaotong who is the top name in the international mercenary circle! The unjust ghost who died at my gun, there are not a hundred, but eighty!"
"Amazing, our family Tongtong is really amazing! Uncle Ping admires!"
"Uncle Ping, you're the worst. Throw me and my mother to the rock and leave us alone. If you don't care about us at all, you're not afraid that one day my mother and I will ......."
Yang Weiping hurriedly interrupted Luo Xiaotong's words, and said solemnly: "Xiaotong, I don't allow you to say this kind of thing again! You and your mother can't have an accident, absolutely not!"
Although he said this, Yang Weiping couldn't help but become really nervous in his heart.
Now they are in war-torn Burma, where the environment is much more chaotic than in Somalia and other countries in Africa.
They took the Rock Mercenary to participate in the Somalan Tribal War, the Annam War, the Cambodian War, and now in order to help him achieve his strategic goals, they are not afraid of danger and tirelessly participate in the Burmese civil war, they have never complained, but is he really at ease in doing so?
For the first time, Yang Weiping began to question his original arrangements for Qiu Fang and Luo Xiaotong's mother and daughter. (To be continued......)
