Chapter 825: Preparation
When the military meeting was held at the frontline headquarters of the Republic troops in Baoshan City, Yunnan, the Burmese government army was not idle. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Although the Burmese government army will have a slight advantage, they also understand that if they want to resist the attack of the republican forces, the price they pay is absolutely unbearable. Even before the war began, the U.S. government had secretly hinted that the Burmese government would provide aid to the Burmese army. Moreover, the establishment of ASEAN has brought military and economic cooperation between several countries in Southeast Asia closer together, especially military cooperation. Before the war began, several countries that joined the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) had told the Burmese government army that they would provide substantial assistance to the Burmese army. Now that the Burmese army has lost its most advanced positions, the Burmese army is now arranging an inland defensive line. So at this time, the Myanmar government intends to ask for help from several other ASEAN countries to reduce its own losses.
In a secret conference room in Naypyidaw, the capital of Myanmar, representatives of ASEAN countries have arrived, and the meeting has officially begun. The Burmese government convened the ASEAN meeting secretly to persuade or get the rest of the ASEAN to live up to their commitments. Representatives of other ASEAN countries also understood the purpose of the Burmese government's secret meeting, and they also understood that once the Burmese government army was really beaten by the republican forces, it would be really terrible for the Burmese government to lean on the republican government.
"Some time ago, the Government of the Republic brazenly launched a war of aggression against our country in defiance of the appeal of the international community, although our troops also met with stubborn resistance. However, the combat effectiveness of the Republican troops is really strong, and at the cost of more than 9,000 casualties in our country, it still cannot withstand the attack of the Republican troops. As a last resort, we had to abandon our defensive positions close to the border and allow our troops to withdraw to Myitkyina. and build defensive positions in the area of Myitkyina, ready to fight the Republic forces to the end. Thankfully, however, the Republican forces are not good at fighting jungle warfare at all, so this is also a big opportunity for us, one that can wipe out a large number of Republican forces. The representative of Myanmar said solemnly.
"What do you mean?" everyone looked at the Burmese government representative with puzzled eyes, not knowing what the opportunity meant in the mouth of the Burmese government representative.
"The Republic has not experienced any war in these years except the war in Afghanistan, especially the jungle operations, which has seriously constrained the development of the Republic's forces. So this is our chance to wipe out a large number of living forces in the republic. According to the latest intelligence, the Republic has basically amassed more than 50,000 troops along the border between the two countries. However, according to the latest information, there are about 30,000 people who can participate in the attack. Thirty thousand people may seem like a lot, but after entering the jungle. It's like throwing a grain of sand into the sea, and it can't set off any wind and waves. That's our chance. ”
"Jungle warfare is different from mountain warfare or plain warfare, and the heavy firepower of the Republican troops in jungle warfare has absolutely no room to exert itself, which fundamentally weakens the combat effectiveness of the Republican troops. And jungle warfare has always been our forte, and I don't think even the Republican forces can match us. We can take advantage of the opportunity of jungle warfare to eliminate a large number of Republic troops, and once we can eliminate a large number of Republic troops in this jungle operation, then we will be much easier to fight in the next war. This war is not only about the position of my Government in Asia, but also about the position of all the countries present here in Asia. We can't just let the government of the Republic keep us under pressure, or we will never have a chance to develop. Obviously, this war is an opportunity for our rapid development, and we must seize this opportunity, otherwise we don't know how many years we in ASEAN will be suppressed by the government of the Republic. ”
"Everyone knows that the First Army of the Republic is very strong in combat, and according to intelligence, the First Army is obviously very good at jungle warfare. Moreover, in the last two days, the Government of the Republic has mobilized about a division from the Northeast Military Region to join the attacking force. Although they claim to be jungle fighters, they have never experienced real warfare. Jungle operations are completely different from plain operations, so except for the First Army, the other offensive forces of the Republic troops should not have much combat effectiveness. Therefore, the focus of this jungle operation is the First Army of the Republic. ”
"However, it is undeniable that the military strength of the Republic does surpass our country by a lot, and the biggest gap is the Air Force. At the very beginning of the war, the air force of the Republic suppressed the air force of our country, and even the air force of the Republic destroyed more than 30 of our fighters. As a result, the Government of the Republic achieved absolute air supremacy at that time, otherwise our troops would not have been able to stop the attack of the Republican troops. So here today I hope that you will be able to lend a helping hand and let us work together against the attacking forces of the Republic. In the end, the representative of the Burmese government seemed to be moved, and stood up excitedly and bowed to the representatives of other countries.
When the representative of the Government of Myanmar had finished speaking, the entire room fell silent. Everyone was thinking about the pros and cons of their participation in the war, even though they had received orders from above before they arrived to cooperate with the Burmese army as much as possible. Although they held the orders of the supreme leaders of their respective countries in their hands, at this time, the representatives of various countries tacitly understood that they were in a hurry, and they were unwilling to make a head. Seeing this, the representatives of the Burmese government are anxious, what is the purpose of convening this secret meeting, is it not to be able to better succeed in obtaining the support of other ASEAN countries, and now there is no one to speak, can this not make the representatives of the Burmese government anxious?
"I hope that you will lend a helping hand so that we can jointly resist the war of aggression waged by the Republic against our country. The Burmese government stood up and bowed again to several others. The face of the representative of the Burmese government was full of sincerity, and if the average person heard what the representative of the Burmese government did, he would probably agree. But none of you here were fools, and you didn't speak rashly.
