Chapter Twenty-Seven: Causing Trouble
Several of his subordinates had already held their breath, and when they heard Pang Jindong's order, they immediately started one after another.
The MD soldier realizes that the other side is going to resist, and the bullet is loaded and fired.
Tang Chuanjiang rushed forward with an arrow step, and raised the guns of the two MD soldiers into the sky, and after the two gunshots, the bullets flew into the air.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Chuanjiang kicked out with both legs and kicked the necks of the two MD soldiers respectively. The two emaciated MD soldiers fell to the ground and passed out.
Compared to Tang Chuanjiang, who was accustomed to hand-to-hand combat, Masaharu Kazama and Kazuka Nagano were still keen on using blades, and the two girls took out their knives from their bodies and swung them, shuttling through the crowd like two white lights, and everywhere they passed, a long cut was bound to be cut on the neck of the MD soldier.
The two girls' knife skills are really fast and accurate enough, and even Tang Chuanjiang admires them very much.
At first, the MD soldiers just felt a chill in their necks, then it started to get hot again, and gradually it became hotter and hotter, and finally it turned into a sharp pain.
At this time, they no longer had any strength to resist, they only felt dizzy, their bodies were weak and weak, and they collapsed directly to the ground.
It was only then that they would see a stream of blood spurting from their necks.
In just a few moments, several MD soldiers fell to the ground and died, and although they had fired a few shots before that, the bullets all shot into the blue sky.
Next, Masaharu Kazama and Kayaka Nagano did not sit idle, but mended their swords on those MD soldiers who passed out on the ground.
At this time, they were cruel and ferocious, not at all as graceful as they were on weekdays, and every time they slashed, a few bloody arrows would be sprayed, and the cold light of the people reflected their cold faces.
The MD officers did not expect these men to dare to resist, and to strike so quickly and viciously.
He looked at the scene in front of him stupidly, and it wasn't until the last of his subordinates died that he pulled out the pistol on his waist in a panic and aimed at Pang Jindong tremblingly.
Pang Jindong quickly stretched out his right hand, pressed the pistol of the MD officer, and gently pressed it on the upper one, only to hear a soft sound of "ballast", and the magazine of the pistol fell off in response.
Officer MD's body shook and he was about to flee with his soft legs, but it was too late, and Masaharu Kazama and Kazuka Nagano plunged their knives into his soft underbelly from both sides.
Officer MD's voice protruded a few syllables indistinctly, blood foamed from his mouth, his body shook a little, and he fell to the ground dead.
The fight, though swift and short, had already caught the attention of the rest of the bazaar, and a series of screams rang out, and the women and children were the first to flee in all directions, followed by the adult men, and the whole bazaar was immediately in chaos.
The vendors were busy packing up their goods to prevent being looted.
Pang Wushuang took a deep breath and pulled Pang Jindong's shirt: "Brother, we're in trouble!
Of course, Pang Jindong knew what his actions meant, but he didn't show the slightest worry, just looked at Pang Wushuang and nodded with satisfaction.
Although this cousin is innocent and young, this spirit of not being chaotic in the face of danger is not something that girls of the same age can have.
Half an hour later, in a local government office.
"Report to the Colonel!" a soldier stood upright in front of his office door and saluted Colonel Thonglai.
Colonel Thonglai was the commander of the 77th Division of the MD Government Army, which was stored on Kokang land as a symbol of the sovereignty of the MD Government.
This force is holding the choke point of the Kokang region and the MD headquarters area, so its significance and role are unusual.
After the signing of the settlement agreement that year, the 77th Division has always kept a low profile, on the one hand, restricting the military discipline of officers and men, trying not to harass the local people, and on the other hand, trying not to interfere in the internal affairs of the SAR.
Previous division commanders adhered to this principle, but after Thonglai became the division commander, these began to change quietly.
Both the Kokang SAR Government and the Kokang Republican Army are accustomed to the style of the 77th Division, and their impression of the division commander is still stuck in a few predecessors, but they forget that people are different, and they forget that they understand the personality of Tonglai.
Thonglai, a representative of the MD government's Young Zhuang faction, is also an out-and-out hawk who believes in the iron-blooded policy and demands a strong solution to the domestic opposition forces, and is deeply dissatisfied with some of the government's compromise policies for peace.
Thonglai was able to become a colonel at a young age, on the one hand, on the one hand, because of his own ability, and on the other hand, because of his deep background within the MD government.
It is precisely because of this background that Tonglai has the opportunity to put his ideas into practice.
When Thonglai was appointed colonel, he had the opportunity to choose which unit to serve, and as a result, he took the initiative to choose the 77th Division.
This is because he believes that the Kokang area under the jurisdiction of the 77th Division is the most symbolic, and if the Kokang issue can be solved through this division, so that the MD government can completely recover the sovereignty of the region and abolish the so-called special zone, it will have an exemplary effect on other special zones.
Further, after solving these so-called special zones one by one, MD will become the centralized state he dreamed of, just around the corner.
Speaking of which, Thonglai's appointment was still a recent thing, but immediately after he took office, he made a heavy adjustment of personnel within the division, and all the officers who were considered weak and incompetent were transferred from their original posts and replaced by the hawks that Thonglai liked.
It was only because of the low-key style he had always pursued that these things did not attract the attention of all parties, and many people did not know that the 77th Division had undergone serious changes.
Thonglai looked up at the soldier and asked in a deep voice, "Come in, what's the matter?"
Thonglai's skin was dark and gray, and even more so on his face, which concealed the gloom contained in his gaze for a certain extent.
Despite this, when his gaze swept over the soldiers, the unlucky guy couldn't help but shudder: "We have an officer and six soldiers killed in the Changqingshan Bazaar!"
"Oh?" Hearing this, Thonglai stopped what he was doing and looked up at the soldier. But the death of his subordinates did not make him feel any regret, not even a trace of anger, but asked with interest: "Who did it?"
"I don't know, but according to the report, the murderer fled in the direction of Changqing Mountain!"
"That's Pang Wenlan's man!" Tong Lai's expression was calm, but his tone revealed his feelings, making his subordinates seem to be a little happy.
The subordinate cautiously asked, "What should we do next?"
"What should be done?" Tong Lai sneered and passed on: "One qiē is going according to the original plan!
After Thonglai became the commander of the division, he sent his soldiers out to wander around and deliberately caused trouble.
Even some places where the MD government army had never set foot in the past have left the footprints of Thonglai's soldiers, and as long as these soldiers clash with any of the forces, they can create sufficient excuses for Thonglai, and they can justifiably launch an attack on the SAR government.
The forces of all the brave parties, who have been kept in the dark about Tonglai's conspiracy, did not create a chance for Tonglai, but Pang Jindong, who was careful not to cause trouble, inadvertently put the spark on the fuse.
Let's talk about this side of Changqing Mountain.
"Fourth grandfather......" Pang Jindong stood straight in front of Pang Wenlan, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Since I provoked the matter, then I will bear all the responsibility!"
Pang Wenlan was about to speak, but Pang Tianpet snatched the conversation: "You take responsibility? Can you afford it? Do you know how much trouble you have caused?"
Pang Wushuang stood next to Pang Jindong obediently, thinking about how to explain to his grandfather.
Originally, she didn't plan to speak, but Pang Tianzhong's words aroused her dissatisfaction: "Uncle, what are you talking about, that MD officer insulted me, if it wasn't for my cousin......"
Pang Tianzhong snorted heavily, interrupting Pang Wushuang's words: "Nephew Pang Jindong is new to the city and doesn't know about this place, but you shouldn't be unaware! Those MD soldiers have always been vulgar and rude, when you see them, you don't hide a little, but still lean forward, can you not cause trouble?"
"You ......" Pang Wushuang didn't expect the uncle to say such a thing, he was so angry that he was dumbfounded, and after a while, he said angrily: "They sincerely came to find fault, even if we can hide today, can we hide forever?" It happened that I ran into it today, in case my aunt accidentally met ......."
"Bastard!" Pang Tianpet slapped the table, stood up openly, and glared angrily at Pang Wushuang.
Ever since Pang Jindong met Pang Tianzhu, he had never seen him say so much, and he was so excited.
This made Pang Jindong realize that it was necessary for him to reacquaint himself with this uncle.
On the other hand, Pang Jindong remembered that Yang Jiawei once said that only this uncle would sincerely welcome him to Changqing Mountain.
But looking at his appearance of asking about the crime at this time, Pang Jindong really couldn't believe this sincerity.
Thinking of this, Pang Jindong's eyes swept to Yang Jiawei, only to see the latter's strange expression, first frowned, and then pursed his lips.
Where was Pang Wushuang willing to be convinced, and talked back to Pang Tianpet, making Pang Tianpet angry.
Pang Tianzhong couldn't say that his niece, and finally attacked his younger brother Pang Tianyi: "Second brother, you should discipline your daughter more if you have time, don't get into trouble outside, and show that you have to be very reasonable!"
Pang Tianyi rarely speaks on weekdays, and he feels more introverted than Pang Tianpet, after all, it was his daughter who caused trouble this time, and it was difficult for Pang Tianyi to express his opinion.
He was thinking about how to exonerate his daughter, and when he saw that the eldest brother pointed the finger at him, he immediately asked dissatisfiedly: "Big brother, do you think that your niece should be bullied by the MD soldiers?"
Pang Tianpet was stunned for a moment, and then replied helplessly: "Of course you shouldn't ......"
Pang Tianyi didn't wait for Pang Tianpet to continue, and then asked: "The MD government army is our biggest enemy, even if there is no Shuang'er, do you think people will not trouble us?"
"But ......"
Pang Tianyi once again interrupted Pang Tianzhong's words: "Or, the Kokang Republican Army wants to change its goals, no longer fight for the freedom of the Kokang people, and want to completely compromise with the MD government! It's just that this goal was established by my father, and now that the eldest brother has just acted as the commander-in-chief, he has made such a heavy policy change, which really makes me worried that it will lead to unstable morale! What's more, did the eldest brother make such a decision with his father's consent? And we also have a share in the Kokang Republican Army, why hasn't the eldest brother discussed it with us?"
"I haven't changed the goal of the Kokang Republican Army, but if it is not necessary, I should not cause unnecessary trouble, so as not to destroy our plan!" Pang Tianzhong took a deep breath and said slowly: "The current situation is complicated, the forces of all parties are intertwined, and we are relatively weak in the middle, so we should be obscure." ”
Pang Tianyi was about to refute, but Pang Wenlan slapped the table and shouted angrily: "Enough!"
Seeing that there was about to cause discord between his uncles, Pang Jindong could no longer remain silent: "No matter what, after all, I caused this matter, and I will take full responsibility!"
Pang Tianpet sneered and asked suspiciously, "How are you going to bear it?"
Pang Jindong was about to answer, when a herald outside hurriedly ran in and reported to Pang Wenlan: "Peng Renhao asks to see!"
Pang Wenlan frowned slightly, and said to himself: "It's really fast!"
Peng Renhao is the current chairman of the Kokang SAR government and the commander-in-chief of the Kokang National Democratic Alliance Army.
The difference between the government and army he represents and Pang Wenlan's Kokang Republican Army is that the former was recruited and recognized by the MD government, while the latter can be regarded as a grass coward who occupies the mountain.
Although, in a way, the SAR government is the sole legitimate government of the Kokang region, and the existence of the Kokang IRA, which is independent of the SAR government, is a violation of this legitimacy.
There has been no clear hostility or friendship between the two forces, there has never been any conflict, and there have been frequent private contacts, but the original intentions of the two sides to maintain this status quo are different.
Pang Wenlan's consideration is that everyone is Chinese after all, and they are related by blood. Having experienced a bitter civil war many years ago, he did not want to fight among his compatriots.
The SAR government considers that maintaining a few forces in the Kokang area that are not coerced by the MD government can highlight the important role of the SAR government in stabilizing the Kokang region, help consolidate its position, and if necessary, it can also become a bargaining chip to blackmail the MD government.
The balance that both sides have to build based on their own needs is destined to be fragile and vulnerable.
An important premise for the existence of this balance is that what the other party does must meet its own needs and cannot cause damage to its own existence.
The conflict between Pang Jindong and MD Bing is constituting such a sabotage, and there is no doubt that Peng Renhao is here to ask for guilt.
