Chapter 16 To Changqing Mountain
There are more and more staff members in the group now, normally speaking, but everything about employees should go directly to the personnel department, Han Feng as the CEO of the group can't manage so many things, let alone a small security guard.
But Pang Jindong once took special care of Han Feng and paid more attention to Liao Chenghao and his people, and not long ago, Han Feng was promoted to the newly formed Minister of Security.
"Liao Chenghao is a very good person, he works seriously and dedicatedly, and he doesn't have any bad habits, otherwise I wouldn't let him be the head of the security department. Hearing Pang Jindong's evaluation of Liao Chenghao, Han Feng, who rarely praises others, highly praised: "I noticed that when he was working, he stood in front of the group for two or three hours without moving his steps. It's not just about dedication, it's about perseverance. ”
Pang Jindong nodded and ordered: "In this case, send him to live in my house for a period of time, and let others be responsible for the affairs of the security department for the time being!"
"No problem!"
"You put me alone with a man, don't you worry about what happens?" As soon as Pang Jindong hung up the phone, Tang Yun leaned over, his plump and full body clinging to Pang Jindong, and at the same time exuding a tempting aroma.
Pang Jindong felt very uncomfortable, moved to the side slightly, and replied: "I don't think people can make mistakes, Liao Chenghao is a very upright person, and he won't do anything wrong to you!"
"But what if?" Sensing that Pang Jindong wanted to escape from him, Tang Yun leaned closer to Pang Jindong's side again.
"I will let Lin Peiwen come and live with you for a while and be your companion! Two girls will never be unable to deal with a man, not to mention that Lin Peiwen has been in the gang for more than ten years, and her skills are very good!"
"Oh!" Tang Yun nodded slightly, looked at Pang Jindong with a smile, and said word by word: "But people still like to be with you!"
Pang Jindong coughed twice, and said to Tang Yun seriously: "I hope you don't have a beastly nature and take the initiative to seduce Liao Chenghao!"
After settling down Tang Yun's side, Pang Jindong got in touch with Yang Jiawei, fortunately Yang Jiawei happened to be in MD at the moment, and the two agreed to meet in Lao Cai Market, the capital of Kokang, and then Yang Jiawei took Pang Jindong to Changqing Mountain.
Hundreds of people acting at the same time in the country will inevitably attract attention and cause unnecessary trouble, so Pang Jindong decided to let everyone set off separately.
Lao Cai Market is located opposite a border town in country Z, after Pang Jindong and others met, they chartered a few buses, and after a long journey of more than ten hours, they came to this border town, and then crossed the border to Lao Cai Market.
Pang Jindong has been to many countries, but the ordinary soldiers accompanying him are farmers in the countryside, although he has been to country M for training, but before he can appreciate the customs of country M, he was sent to the base of Hongyan Valley in the desert.
Therefore, when they thought that they were going abroad again, they were full of anticipation for this trip.
But when they arrived at Lao Cai City, the soldiers were greatly disappointed, because although it seemed very backward, it was almost no different from the county town in the southwest of the country.
Most people know Mandarin on the Chinese character signboards on the streets, the RMB is the universal currency, the mobile phone is in the Yunnan section, and even the telephone area code is from Lincang City.
Pang Jindong later learned that the power supply also came from China.
Tang Chuanjiang looked around and sighed: "I can't imagine that we have already arrived in other countries!"
Pang Jindong shook his head, smiled and pouted ahead.
I saw two soldiers walking crookedly on the opposite side, short and black and thin, and they knew that they were locals at first sight.
They wore sloppy military uniforms and looked like standard ruffians.
When I just left the port, I saw the solemn military appearance and upright posture of the domestic border guards, and compared with the two soldiers in front of me, it really seemed to be heaven and earth.
"It's a soldier of the MD government!" Pang Jindong muttered in a low voice, reminding everyone that he was indeed in a foreign land now.
The presence of troops in the Kokang area is the only case that can prove the MD government's sovereignty over the region, and the conduct of these soldiers is very poor and the people are very angry.
Pang Jindong and his group were too many people, standing on the street was really conspicuous, Pang Jindong glanced at everyone, and signaled to disperse immediately.
It wasn't until he watched the two MD soldiers walk away that Pang Jindong reunited everyone, found a place to stay first, and waited for Yang Jiawei to come to greet him.
Yang Jiawei arrived soon, but instead of going directly to the hotel to find Pang Jindong, he asked Pang Jindong to the suburbs.
When Pang Jindong led a large group of people and inquired all the way to the designated place, he saw Yang Jiawei sitting there smoking leisurely.
As soon as he saw Pang Jindong, Yang Jiawei hurriedly snuffed out the cigarette butt, stood up and greeted him: "I finally see you here!"
"Yes!" Pang Jindong wiped the sweat on his forehead and said mockingly: "I thought you would be more enthusiastic!"
Although he heard Pang Jindong's words, Yang Jiawei did not show a trace of shame, but just explained with a smile: "There are too many people who know me in the old market, I can't show my head lightly!"
"I didn't expect you to be a big celebrity!"
"Of course!" Yang Jiawei heard this, and simply thought that Pang Jindong was praising himself: "In this land, when it comes to the word 'Yang Jiawei', there are really not too many people who don't know or haven't heard of it!"
When Pang Jindong and Yang Jiawei were talking, Tang Chuanjiang, Kazama Masaharu and Nagano Fenghua formed the word "Pin" and protected Pang Jindong in the middle.
As for the soldiers of the two companies, they were scattered around, chatting or enjoying the scenery nearby, but they always maintained a faint battle formation.
If it were someone else, looking at these honest faces and dark skin, they would think they were ordinary farmers, but this couldn't hide Yang Jiawei's eyes.
Yang Jiawei was talking, his eyes were scanning these people, and suddenly, the words changed: "These are your subordinates, right?"
Pang Jindong nodded: "Yes!"
"It can be seen completely, brother, you are well trained, this is a very effective force!"
Pang Jindong looked back at his soldiers and looked quite proud: "If it weren't for the excellent troops, I wouldn't dare to bring them here to show their ugliness!"
Yang Jiawei seemed to want to give Pang Jindong a little color, smiled and clapped his hands, only to see more than a dozen people suddenly "swish" out of the surrounding woods and grass.
The men were dressed in tattered green military uniforms, all with weapons in their hands, and their exposed skin was painted with camouflage paint. Coupled with their small and hard-working stature, they are very easy to hide.
Seeing this scene, Pang Jindong's face changed slightly, and his soldiers had to react immediately.
Yang Jiawei told Pang Jindong: "They came with you all the way, in order to protect you!"
"The ...... who came with us" A dozen people to protect more than 200 people is really a big joke. This incident made Pang Jindong embarrassed, as a soldier, not only did he not find that he had already been followed, but he also did not find that there was an ambush around his place.
If the other party is an enemy, the consequences are unimaginable.
Yang Jiawei deliberately showed off the ability of the Kokang Republican Army, not wanting Pang Jindong to not be able to come to the stage, seeing that his goal had been achieved, he waved his hand and explained: "We know enough about the environment and landform here, you are different from us!"
"Yes......" Pang Jindong grinned awkwardly.
"The Kokang Republican Army has many enemies, my brother is different from us, he came to Kokang to see his relatives, how can he say that it seems to be going to war?!"
"After all, MD is not very peaceful in China......
"But Kokang is very peaceful here!" Yang Jiawei laughed, amused by Pang Jindong's ignorance, but also somewhat understood: "Many people in China think that the more backward the area, the more chaotic it is, but in fact, that is not the case at all! Robbery and theft are serious crimes in Kokang, not to mention murder and arson! In addition, Kokang has reached a ceasefire with the MD government, so the public order is much better than in many places in China!"
"Then you ......" Pang Jindong looked at Yang Jiawei and did not continue.
Yang Jiawei understood what Pang Jindong meant, and slowly explained: "There is a tacit understanding between the Kokang Republican Army and the SAR government, and there will be no trouble in the Kokang area!"
"But you are here to fight for the independence of the Kokang region!"
"So we're going to settle accounts with the MD government, not other Chinese ......," Yang Jiawei said here, seemingly confused.
What Yang Jiawei didn't expect was that these words triggered a lot of thinking in Pang Jindong's heart.
The purpose of the Kokang Republican Army is naturally to benefit the Chinese here, but the means they use for this are likely to plunge the Kokang region, which has just escaped from the war, into the flames of war again, so is it worth it?
In fact, this is also a situation that Pang Wenlan does not want to see, which is why the Kokang Republican Army and the SAR government will reach such a tacit understanding of mutual non-aggression.
After Pang Wenlan spent decades accumulating and developing his own strength and evading the spearhead of various forces, now facing this peaceful environment may be the biggest difficulty he encounters, and Pang Jindong's thinking just touches on this very critical issue.
Today's Kokang region is pursuing development, and the people are tired of war and yearn for a stable and happy life.
But if you give up this ideal, it means that you will always be under the fence, and your own nation will always look at the face of a foreign government.
In other words, Pang Wenlan is now facing a dilemma, he can't advance and retreat, and he is unwilling to retreat.
Yang Jiawei never mentioned these things to Pang Jindong, and Pang Jindong later came to this conclusion through Guò's observation of a series of things and his own analysis and judgment.
Under the leadership of Yang Jiawei, Pang Jindong and his group began to cross the mountains and mountains and march towards Changqing Mountain.
Along the way, Pang Jindong personally understood the landform and natural environment of the Kokang area.
A large part of the Kokang region is surrounded by the Tibetan plateau, which is mostly steep mountains and has few large flat lands.
There is neither a plateau nor a full ridge on the summit, which is cut into large and small hilly mountains.
These mountains are full of limestone and are full of caves, some of which are particularly deep. There are steep slopes everywhere, and visibility is very small.
Every step you take, it's either up or down.
Lao Cai Market, the starting point of Pang Jindong and others, is also a hill divided by jungle and grassland.
The only plain in the whole region is the Maliba Basin, which is only 20 kilometers long and only 6 kilometers wide.
It's easy to imagine the topography of this place, just hold a piece of paper in your hand and spread it out on the table, which is a topographical map of the place, and the folds in the paper are the mountains and valleys.
Overall, it's quite desolate and treacherous, with snakes and beasts everywhere, and it's easy to get lost if you're not familiar with it.
And if you don't have a lot of endurance, it's hard to survive here.
Only the Kokang people, the two branches of the Lisu and Jingpo tribes, Mulu and Laixi, are not afraid of this sinister environment and still live here. The stockades they live in are built on slopes, and the foundations of the houses are dug up before they can be built.
