Pang Wenlan's words have a certain background, that is, the difference between him and Li Shenmu on political concepts, which is also one of the reasons why Li Shenmu refused to help Pang Wenlan back then.

Pang Wenlan firmly believed in the Three People's Principles all his life, while Li Shenmu, unlike him, was a staunch supporter of the northern regime.

In that year, after a certain leader of the central government issued a speech, calling on Chinese in Southeast Asia to join the nationality of the country where they are located and make more contributions to the country where they live, Li Shenmu resolutely gave up his family's status as a Chinese for more than 100 years and became an official citizen of the MD country.

His father broke with him for this matter, and until his death, he never said a word to this son.

After Li Shenmu took over the family's affairs, he used the influence of the family to call on the Chinese to completely MD, which was not only intended to avoid the suspicion of the MD government, but also because of this conversation back then.

Even after suffering a lot of failures and setbacks, Li Shenmu still has no regrets and firmly believes that his ideas are correct.

It's just that today, Li Shenmu has to face a problem, that is, in the past few decades, he may really be wrong.

When Li Shenmu heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't mention the past again, the times are changing, all of us are changing, and your so-called 'northern regime' is even changing! I believe that the attitude of the northern regime towards General Pang today is probably very different from that of a few decades ago!"

Hearing Pang Wenlan's repeated remarks about making things difficult, some of the Chinese deputies could not hold back a little and jumped out to express their dissatisfaction with Pang Wenlan: "We have come to Changqing Mountain with great hardships just to join your resolute republican army.

"Shut up!" Li Shenmu didn't want to anger Pang Wenlan, and immediately scolded this Chinese young man, but his tone was not harsh.

Although the words and deeds of this Chinese young man disgusted Li Shenmu, at this time, it was equivalent to helping Li Shenmu, and these words also said what Li Shenmu thought in his heart.

Li Shenmu looked at Pang Wenlan with complicated eyes, and apologized for the young man: "Young man, you are not sensible, General Pang, you have a lot of ........"

Pang Wenlan interrupted Li Shenmu's words and asked in surprise: "He said he wanted to join the Kokang Republican Army?"

Li Shenmu nodded: "Yes! And not only him, many Chinese young people want to join, I just brought the elite this time!"

Hearing Li Shenmu's words, not only Pang Wenlan, but everyone present was very shocked.

At the beginning, everyone thought that the Chinese representatives had come to Xingshi to ask for their guilt, but after some conversation, they didn't feel like it, so they thought that the Chinese had not forgotten their compatriot friendship after all, and came to comfort them decently, and maybe even donate some money or something, but no one thought that they would directly participate in the battle.

Pang Wenlan pointed to the Chinese youth and asked Li Shenmu: "Mr. Li is joking?"

Li Shenmu finally returned to normalcy at this time, smiled calmly, and asked rhetorically, "Does General Pang think I'm joking?"

Pang Wenlan asked again: "Is this with your permission, Mr. Li?"

"Not only did I allow it, but I encouraged it, otherwise I would have brought them personally?"

Pang Wenlan let out a long sigh, looked at Li Shenmu and shook his head in confusion: "Mr. Li's temperament has really changed greatly, and it is completely different from the beginning!"

Li Shenmu smiled again and waved his hand: "I said, everything is changing!"

Pang Wenlan immediately received: "How it has changed, and how it has changed, I would like to hear it in detail!"

Li Shenmu pondered for a moment, and finally slowly explained the truth of the matter.

Because the Chinese people are relatively mild-tempered and generally do not care about politics, the kind of thinking that Li Shenmu held back then was very marketable among the Chinese.

But lions never stop hunting because of their gentleness, on the contrary, antelopes are the best source of food for lions because of their mildness.

Li Shenmu's ostrich policy did not bring any peace and stability to the Chinese, and as a result, after the Ne Win exclusion of China, many Chinese began to faintly regret it and realized that they should seize power.

In the years that followed, a large number of Chinese entered the top of the MD government, but at this time a sad phenomenon occurred, the Chinese leaders treated the Chinese as well as the Burmese leaders, and this hope of the Chinese was dashed again.

Under these circumstances, many Chinese people thoroughly reflected on their original thinking, believing that the root of Yiqiē was that they did not master the barrel of the gun, so they set their sights on the Kokang Communist Army in the north, but this kind of thinking could only be circulated privately at that time.

In peacetime, the Chinese had neither the need nor the courage to participate in the battle of the Kokang Republican Army, and could only silently support it in their hearts until the Indonesian anti-Chinese incident occurred in '98.

The Chinese people are not united, and the overseas Chinese are the same, the Chinese in the same region are still keen on internal fighting, and the Chinese in the same country do not care about each other.

And the Chinese in different countries are almost like inseparable people from each other. The situation has only improved somewhat over the years, because the Chinese have finally realized the importance of unity, and the comprehensive national strength and international influence of country Z have been increasing, which has given great confidence to overseas Chinese.

After all, they are compatriots who are related by blood, and they all have the same or similar experiences, so the tragic experience of the Chinese in Indonesia makes the Chinese in other countries inevitably sad.

Any Chinese in Southeast Asia has the worry that what happened to the Chinese in Indonesia today may happen tomorrow in their own country.

In contrast, the MD Chinese were fortunate because they had an autonomous region in Shan State and a fighting Kokang Republican Army, although the split between the Kokang and the Chinese became apparent early on.

During the period of Ne Win's exclusion of the Chinese, none of the armed forces in the Kokang region did anything for the other Chinese, and the Chinese never supported the Kokang.

Therefore, from this level, the power possessed by the Kokang people seems to have nothing to do with other Chinese, but the Chinese society all over the world has begun to move towards unity, and the MD Chinese are naturally no exception.

In particular, after the Kokang Republican Army took over the entire Kokang region, it clearly proposed to defend the interests of all Chinese compatriots, which made the Chinese begin to pay attention to these compatriots in northern Myanmar.

However, despite this, at the beginning of the outbreak of the all-out war in the Kokang region, the mainstream of the MD Chinese society still complained about the Kokang Republican Army.

If Pang Wenlan appeared in front of them at that time, I am afraid that he would inevitably be beaten.

This is an ironic and sad situation, and the reason for this is that the Chinese community generally believes that the Kokang IRA will eventually suffer a crushing defeat in the face of the powerful MD government forces.

This "rebellious" behavior of the Kokang Republican Army will inevitably lead the government to take brutal revenge on the Chinese.

However, to the surprise of these Chinese, instead of being wiped out, the Kokang Republican Army (IRA) won a series of victories, forcing the MD government to continuously commit several troops.

Previously, the MD government tightly sealed the news, and the Chinese still obtained some information through various channels, although the news is mixed, but it shows the strength of the Kokang Republican Army.

What surprised these Chinese even more, and at the same time was a little surprising, that the expected comprehensive Chinese exclusion did not happen.

In fact, the MD government does not want to exclude Chinese, and Senior General Maung Aye even wants to take this opportunity to eliminate all Chinese in MD.

It's just that, considering the possible reaction of the government of country Z, they don't dare.

Although the diplomatic style of country Z is not tough, as the country's strength continues to increase, the huge impact it has brought cannot be underestimated.

The government of country Z is now the only supporter of the MD military regime, which makes the MD government dare not take it lightly.

With regard to the situation in the Kokang region, country Z has only made two compromise statements and has not made any practical moves, which is what the MD government wants.

But if the exclusion of Chinese happens, then it is difficult to say the attitude of the government of country Z, and the top level of the MD government believes that this may make the government of country Z openly and covertly support the Kokang Republican Army.

In addition, the anti-Chinese will certainly further boost the morale and fighting spirit of the Kokang Republican Army, and guide the attitude of the Chinese society to be fully inclined towards armed struggle.

Thonglai's actions in the Rolling Lane area, which led people of all ethnic groups to join the Kokang Republican Army, are a close example.

Therefore, in line with the idea of settling accounts after the autumn, the MD government has no idea of hitting the Chinese for the time being.

In this way, the MD Chinese take it for granted that it was the struggle of the Kokang Republican Army that made the MD government begin to respect and even fear the Chinese.

Furthermore, the Kokang Republican Army is no longer a problem for the Chinese, but a hero of Chinese society.

Under the influence of various subjective and objective factors, the attitude of MD Chinese began to change.

This kind of transformation initially existed only for some people, and it was not very obvious, but in the end it became a 180-degree turn for the Chinese society as a whole.

Including old ostriches like Li Shenmu, they all think that the Chinese may take this opportunity to raise their eyebrows in MD from now on.

If you don't want to be food for a lion, you have to be a lion yourself, not try to be a fierce antelope.

The Chinese people have never been antelopes, otherwise it would not have been possible to continue the history of thousands of years and become the largest ethnic group in the world.

Back then, after the anti-Chinese tragedy, the Indonesian Chinese organized an armed security team to patrol the Chinese community, and the MD Chinese thought that they should not do worse.

It was under these circumstances that the MD Chinese Conference was convened with an overwhelming majority, that is, to give full support to the struggle of the Kokang Republican Army, and to contribute with the money and strength.

Many enthusiastic Chinese youths were even eager to go to the north to find the Kokang Republican Army and directly participate in the battle.

So, Li Shenmu carefully selected 300 Chinese young people and personally took them to Changqing Mountain.
