Chapter 54: The Fourth Special Region
For the Fourth Special Region, Shen Peifu didn't wait for the departure, but the Fourth Special Region took the initiative to send someone here, and it was not an ordinary person, it was Secretary-General Jiang Yaolong.
"Please!" Shen Peifu was extremely enthusiastic about these guests, and after welcoming them to the reception room, he immediately served fragrant tea.
Jiang Yaolong lifted the lid of the tea cup, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and immediately nodded with satisfaction.
With Jiang Yaolong's action, even Pang Jindong, who was sitting opposite, immediately smelled a refreshing fragrance.
Pang Jindong can smell that it is a good Longjing in the Ming Dynasty, the material conditions of Changqing Mountain are very difficult, such a luxury thing is a lot of effort to get, only a little bit, usually stored in the warehouse, if it is not a distinguished guest, it will never be taken out.
Pang Jindong tasted it once when he went out to Changqing Mountain, and now he and Shen Peifu are drinking ordinary flower tea.
"Good tea ......" Jiang Yaolong took a sip, gently put down the tea cup, and praised: "Longjing is divided into several kinds because of the different seasons of picking, and this kind of picking before the Qingming Festival is the best." I didn't expect you to have such good things here in Changqing Mountain......"
Obviously, Jiang Yaolong is also a knowledgeable person, which makes Pang Jindong feel somewhat happy, and at the same time looks at his teacup with a little bitterness.
If Jiang Yaolong didn't know how to taste tea at all, and only regarded it as an ordinary belly yellow, it would be in vain for Shen Peifu's thoughts.
Therefore, hearing Jiang Yaolong's words, Shen Peifu also breathed a sigh of relief: "Secretary-General Jiang visited in person, how dare you not entertain you with good things!"
Chairman Shen was polite. Jiang Yaolong smiled slightly and asked, "How is General Pang doing lately?"
"Thanks to Secretary-General Jiang's concern, it's not bad!"
Hearing these two conversations, Pang Jindong immediately understood that Jiang Yaolong knew more or less about Shen Peifu's life experience.
This shows that the relationship between the two sides has always been very close, which makes Pang Jindong a little more confident.
Among the people present at this time, only Pang Jindong and Shen Peifu were on the side of the Kokang Republican Army, while Jiang Yaolong and a few others were on the side of the Fourth Special Region.
Jiang Yaolong is the leading singer, and the rest are foils.
Jiang Yaolong looked around at the people present and asked Shen Peifu, "Where is Commander-in-Chief Pang?"
Shen Pei glanced at Pang Jindong and replied lightly: "My father's health has been slightly ill recently, so he couldn't come to greet Secretary General Jiang. ”
"Oh!" Jiang Yaolong nodded, and said, "It's better to let him pay more attention to his body, don't work too hard!"
The conversation between Shen Peifu and Jiang Yaolong was like meeting old friends, Pang Jindong neither interjected nor wanted to interject, just sat there and listened patiently.
However, Jiang Yaolong had already noticed Pang Jindong early on, and seeing that Pang Jindong never spoke, he said to Shen Peifu: "This little brother next to you, don't you want to introduce me?"
Shen Peifu hurriedly introduced: "This is Pang Jindong, the deputy commander-in-chief of our Kokang Republican Army, and also my cousin!"
Pang Jindong nodded slightly: "Hello, Secretary General Jiang!"
"Pang Jindong......" Jiang Yaolong frowned slightly, and then smiled: "Look up for a long time!"
Shen Peifu asked with interest, "Have you heard of this cousin of mine?"
"Pang Jindong should have just come from country Z and was newly appointed as the deputy commander-in-chief! His ambush in the canyon was fought beautifully!" Jiang Yaolong said, and asked Pang Jindong instead: "You are the head of the famous Blood Lion Legion, right?!"
Pang Jindong waved his hand and said modestly: "It's just a small business, it's not a big deal!"
Pang Jindong said that "business" is to tell everyone that the essence of the Blood Lion Legion is mercenaries, which is different from these armed forces of one side.
Since it is a business, it is naturally aimed at making money, and many things are not decided by Pang Jindong alone.
Many people think that the Blood Lion Legion did not all go out because Pang Jindong did not try his best enough.
In fact, Isabel and his reinforcements had already arrived in the South China Sea, but they were at a loss at sea.
"Brother is too modest!" Jiang Yaolong smiled indifferently and told Pang Jindong: "I have a cousin who served in the Foreign Legion in Country F and stayed in Iraq for a while. I came back a few days ago, and told me that the current Blood Lion Legion can be described as in full swing. Country M is constantly reducing its regular forces from Iraq, and mercenaries are increasingly being used in military operations. Among the mercenaries, the proportion of the Blood Lion Legion is rising, not only taking over the business of many other mercenaries, but also taking almost all the new ones. ”
Jiang Yaolong's words mentioned one thing, that is, the Foreign Legion of Country F.
The so-called "Foreign Legion" is a regular army of the Army of Country F, composed of foreign volunteers, with the same equipment as the regular army, and is composed of about 8,000 volunteers from 136 countries and regions.
This unit was originally established to solve the problem of foreigners committing crimes in country F and to replenish the French army killed and wounded in the war, and later evolved into a tool for country F to carry out its overseas policy.
To put it bluntly, the "Foreign Legion" is a type of mercenary, and like other mercenaries, it is used as a tool used by great powers.
However, compared with the mercenary organization of Pang Jindong's Blood Lion Legion, the Foreign Legion is different.
Underground mercenaries such as the Blood Lion Legion are often temporary organizations, while the Foreign Legion exists permanently as the regular army of Country F.
What many people don't know is that there are many Chinese in the Foreign Legion.
Because after five years of service in the legion, it is usually possible to obtain a certificate of good standing, with which you can obtain nationality or long-term residence in country F, and then the right to work.
The conversation between the two sides then moved on to the topic of mercenaries, and thus to the current international situation, except for the current situation in the Kokang region.
When Jiang Yaolong came, it was two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was gradually sinking in the west, thinking that there was a fierce battle outside, Pang Jindong and Shen Peifu were burning in their hearts.
Every time the two tried to bring the conversation to the point, Jiang Yaolong pretended to be confused and diverted the topic again.
Pang Jindong and Shen Peifu glanced at each other, and secretly smiled bitterly.
Pang Jindong initially thought that Jiang Yaolong's trip might be to show favor to the Kokang Republican Army, but Jiang Yaolong's appearance was not like it.
So, Pang Jindong thought that he was here to probe and wanted to know what the Kokang Republican Army planned next, but he didn't ask about the current situation of the Kokang Republican Army at all.
In the end, Pang Jindong began to suspect that he was trying to drag himself and Shen Peifu and create an opportunity for the MD government army.
After a long time, this embarrassing situation was broken, a herald knocked on the door of the reception room, and then ran in quickly, first saluted Pang Jindong, and then saluted Shen Peifu, and then said loudly: "Report!"
Pang Jindong noticed that when the herald saluted, Shen Peifu's face was a little ugly.
But Pang Jindong could only pretend not to notice and asked the herald: "What's the matter?"
"Front-line military intelligence ......," the herald said, his eyes glancing at Jiang Yaolong and the others.
Finally had the opportunity to end Kan Dashan, Pang Jindong was naturally very happy, and hurriedly told the herald: "There are no outsiders here, just say it!"
The herald took a deep breath and said slowly, "Dinglun Town has been captured by the MD government army!"
Probably no one would have predicted that such a fierce battle would break out in this part of the town of Dinglun, and the corpses left there would exceed the local population.
For several days, the warring sides threw in thousands of troops to fight for it, and after repeated tug-of-war, it was occupied by the Kokang Republican Army.
Now, Ding Lun Zhen is back in the hands of the enemy, and all the previous sacrifices have been in vain.
Pang Jindong nodded and told the herald: "I know, you can go out!"
Pang Jindong said and looked at Jiang Yaolong and the others.
If Jiang Yaolong stood up at this time and said, "Since you have something to do, I won't bother and say goodbye first!" Pang Jindong would definitely not feel strange.
However, Jiang Yaolong didn't, but his face sank, and the ease just now disappeared in an instant.
He looked at Pang Jindong and said thoughtfully: "It seems that your situation is not very optimistic!"
Pang Jindong smiled faintly: "The MD government has hundreds of thousands of regular troops, and we only have a few thousand troops, and we can fight the battle to this point, in fact, we have won!"
Shen Peifu nodded vigorously: "My cousin is right!"
"But you use thousands of people to challenge hundreds of thousands of people, and the final result is still losing!"
Jiang Yaolong picked up the already cold tea cup, took a big sip of tea, and said slowly: "The crux of the matter is that you shouldn't do such a stupid thing at all!"
This sentence made Shen Peifu feel very uncomfortable, and immediately wanted to refute it, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say, so he looked at Pang Jindong for help.
Pang Jindong seemed indifferent to Jiang Yaolong's provocation: "Using a few thousand people to challenge hundreds of thousands of people, even people who have not had a career as a horse warrior will know that this is completely like an egg hitting a stone! And people who use eggs to touch stones are basically stupid, aren't they?"
As soon as Pang Jindong said a word, almost everyone present was stunned, although everyone knew that this was definitely not Pang Jindong's self-indulgence.
Jiang Yaolong hesitated a few times, he really didn't know what he should say, and finally just smiled awkwardly and didn't say a word.
Pang Jindong took a sip of the same cold flower tea, and then continued: "Pang Jindong is a fool alone, this is possible! But are the thousands of brothers in the Kokang Republican Army all stupid?"
This sentence found an opportunity for Shen Peifu's rebuttal, and immediately added: "These thousands of brothers have all rolled on the battlefield, and many of them have fought against the MD government army for decades! What it means to start a full-scale war, we can know it without Secretary General Jiang saying it!"
Jiang Yaolong nodded with an imperceptible amplitude and asked, "What do you want to explain?"
"What I want to say is that after more than ten or twenty years of enlightenment, the MD government is confused again!" Pang Jindong smiled coldly: "They must annihilate all dissident forces!"
