Chapter 810: The War Begins

The actions of the Republic attracted the attention of the intelligence agents of various countries lurking in the Republic of China, and the intelligence agents immediately transmitted the movements of the Republic back to the country. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 For a while, these intelligence agents lurking in various countries in the country received orders from the intelligence organizations to which they belonged, and they did everything they could to find out the true purpose of the republic's movement while ensuring their own safety. In fact, many countries and organizations do not believe that the republic really dares to start another war.

The Burmese government has not reacted at all to the ultimatum given by the Republic and has continued to go its own way. The Burmese government believes that the Republic does not dare to start a war even if it is preparing for war. War is deadly, and the Burmese government believes that the Republic cannot afford massive casualties among its troops. Moreover, the Burmese government has the support of ASEAN countries and the U.S. government, so the Burmese government believes that even if there is a real war, the Burmese government is not afraid of the republic. Since the incident, which occurred on August 21, the clashes between the Burmese government forces and the local armed forces of ethnic minorities in northern Myanmar have stopped. The local armed forces of the ethnic minorities in northern Myanmar do not think that they can withstand the wrath of the republic, and if an accident occurs, there is no need to think that the local armed forces of the ethnic minorities in northern Myanmar will definitely be the first target of the republic's government.

Time passed slowly, and the troops of the republic were constantly preparing for war. At this stage, more than two divisions have been gathered in the south-western border area, and the troops of the two divisions are stationed not far from the border between the Republic and Burma. The Angry Wolf Heavy Artillery Brigade of the First Army also received orders from above to rush to the border between the Republic and Burma in the shortest possible time. The troops of other military districts were also ready for war, and all the fighters of the First Army were ready for war. Although the soldiers of the First Army had not actually participated in major wars, they were also people who regularly carried out missions, so they were both nervous and anticipating the coming war. Just ask, that soldier doesn't want to be able to make a career on the battlefield. Although wars are often accompanied by death, this impending war is a just war, and they are ready to die for this country, for this people, and for these people at any time from the day they join the army. They are not afraid of death, but only of not being able to destroy the enemy.

One day passed, three days passed, seven days passed. It is now less than four hours before the ultimatum of the Republic is given, and all eyes of the world are focused on the border between the Republic and Myanmar. The Republic had made its final preparations, and even the embassy in Myanmar had withdrawn from Myanmar three days earlier, and the Government of the Republic had allowed all citizens of the Republic to return to Myanmar. At this time, the Burmese government was also ready for war, and on the other side of the border, the Burmese government had gathered more than two troops, one of which was the fifth army (which I fabricated), the ace army in the hands of the Burmese government.

The Fifth Army is the most powerful army in the Burmese government army, and it is also an army with a long history. Since World War II, the Fifth Army has been known for its courage and bravery. During World War II, after the Japanese army occupied Burma, the Fifth Army has been persisting in resisting Japan, even if it suffered huge losses, but it was able to give the enemy a strong blow. At that time, after the Nationalist Government sent troops into Burma, they fought side by side with the Fifth Army. In recent years, in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the Fifth Army, the Burmese government has constantly worked the Fifth Army. The equipment that the Burmese government trades from the US government is basically the first to be equipped by the Fifth Army, except for some special weapons and equipment. Moreover, the training of the Fifth Army is also quite strong in Burma, and the Fifth Army often conducts military exercises with other units of the Burmese government army to test the combat effectiveness of the Fifth Army. This time, in order to confront the Republic, the Burmese government deliberately transferred the Fifth Army from around Naypyidaw, the capital of Burma.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic held a new press conference. Basically, the relatively large news media in the world sent reporters to attend the press conference, so the scale of the press conference held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic was quite large, and more than 1,000 reporters attended the press conference in total. This press conference was broadcast live from all over the world, and all countries and organizations around the world are paying attention to this press conference of the Republic, and they all understand that this press conference of the Republic will determine whether there will be a real war between the Republic and Myanmar.

"Good afternoon, friends from the press, I am sure you are curious about the purpose of our government's press conference at this time. However, there is one point that may disappoint you, this press conference does not accept any questions, please pay attention to this point. I won't sell it, the press conference will officially begin, and I will invite the military spokesman Major General Jiang Jun!" After the press officer finished speaking, a middle-aged man dressed in the uniform of an army major general quickly walked onto the rostrum.

"Friends from the news media circles, good afternoon! My name is Jiang Jun, and I am ordered by my superiors to attend this news conference!" Jiang Jun then saluted the reporters and friends under the rostrum.

"Seven days ago, my Government issued an ultimatum to the Myanmar side, demanding that the Government of Myanmar compensate and apologize to the innocent citizens of the Republic who were injured and killed in the events of 21 August. But seven days have passed, and the Government of Myanmar has not shown anything in the face of my Government's warnings, which is a great disregard and insult to the Republic. The dignity of the Republic cannot be trampled on by anyone, any country or any organization. My Government will resolutely crack down on those who dare to trample on the dignity of the Republic, as well as against the States and organizations. Jiang Jun paused and looked around at the press conference for a week, and all the reporters were pricking up their ears and preparing to listen carefully to Jiang Jun's next speech. Everyone who attended the press conference knew that the most important thing was about to begin, and the whole press conference was so quiet that you could hear the sound of a needle dropping. Everyone knew that Chiang's next words would determine the relationship between the Republic and Burma for a long time to come.
