Chapter 546: ATG Rookie Shan Ben
On this trip, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they avoided Wanhai Town, the headquarters of the Northern Shan State Army, and walked together on the northern front.
The northern route is from the direction of Nanlan to Mengya, and then to the east, passing through Manka and arriving at Dangyang, almost more than 50 kilometers. After more than an hour, it was not long before arriving at the destination.
Along the way, they walked on the edge of the area controlled by the Northern Shan State Army and did not penetrate deep into the hinterland.
Along the way, most of the soldiers of the Northern Shan State Army were seen, as well as the Shan people of the Third Special Region of Shan State. Regardless of the war between the Northern Shan State Army and the Burmese Army, from a national point of view, at least the Northern Shan State Army is the Shan people's own army in the Third Special Region of Shan State, and it has much more popular support than the Burmese Army.
Xiao Mubai once watched a movie, "First Blood 4", this film is about Myanmar, in which the Burmese warlords never treat other ethnic groups as human beings, and young people are captured as soldiers to train and cultivate reserve forces.
Middle-aged and elderly men and women are killed, because it will waste food and it is not easy to transform. In the end, the girls were captured for the amusement of the officers and soldiers, and used as a tool to vent their desires. This is the only bit of value that women have here, and without this use, they will also be killed.
The film was banned in Myanmar, but it was all about the real situation in Myanmar.
Along the way, although Xiao Mubai didn't see the scene in the film, he had seen the situation of the Shan people. Because it is located in the Indochina Peninsula, the race belongs to the Shan Dai people, the skin color is originally brown, the face is not ruddy and oily at all, the body is thin, the clothes are ragged, like monkeys, and the domestic cloud mud is different.
Angela didn't care, and kept driving forward, and the Shan children watched the convoy pass by, reaching out for candy and coins, but everyone returned empty-handed.
There is also land for growing rice on the side of the road, there are not a few acres of large and small pieces, a mud puddle, and on the mountain are villages built on the mountain, chaotic trees and houses, only a few dozen households, all surrounded by lush forests, and only a small road leads to an unknown area.
Finally, they arrived at Dangyang Town, where the 74th Brigade of the Northern Shan State Army was stationed.
After arriving in the town, the convoy did not stop and continued to drive straight up the hill to the east. Entering a campsite, Angela drove to a final stop, and Hummer parked in the camp clearing.
Jumping out of the car, Xiao Mubai looked at the area. Six or seven kilometers to the east is the Nu River, ten kilometers to the west is Dangyang, and finally about 25 kilometers to the northwest is Mengma, which is the area controlled by the Burmese army. In addition to the northwest, there are also Dangyang to the east, northeast and southeast, all of which are controlled by the Burmese army.
The nearest United Wa State Army is more than twenty kilometers away.
And here, a few kilometers along the entire Nu River, is the area of activity of the Burmese army, they have inland river ships, they are extremely fast, and the rebels without heavy firepower are almost pinched like soft persimmons under the ships. Even a ship of several hundred tons can be destroyed with a single RPG rocket.
The Northern Shan State Army was besieged in this mountainous area of less than 400 square kilometers.
"It's not safe here." Holding a telescope, he saw the Burmese army speedboat cruising along the Nu River, and sighed to himself, the distance was only six or seven kilometers.
"There is no place in Myanmar that is safe, and if you want to be safe, don't come to PMC." Hearing his exclamation, Angela replied while moving things from the car.
"What about the people you are talking about, those who want to seek excitement and want to make money?" Turning around, he asked.
The ATG people occupy this village within a radius of several hundred meters and use it as a camp. The village has long been destroyed by the war, and there are still traces of war smoke on those wooden houses, but there are no more villagers in the village, all of them are ATG people, most of them are twenty or thirty.
The camp happens to be a recess, and just a little further up the hillside you can see the raging Nu River.
Angela walked, he followed, and as she climbed a low hill, she held a telescope and stared at the area below. Xiao Mubai saw the figure with pupils, and also took out his binoculars to look, only to see that in the village within a radius of dozens of meters, some people were queuing up to receive relief food.
"That's it." Angela said, pointing at the men.
What are these people for? Xiao Mubai really didn't know what to say, he felt that he had been deceived by Angela, civilians were still civilians even if they were armed, and they would not become warriors. In other words, even if he recruits new people to train, he is better than this kind of refugee.
"Don't underestimate them." As if knowing what he was thinking, Anji stretched out his hand, beckoned a person to come over, pointed at him and said, "Burmese, I will be collectively called Burmese." They only need a mouthful of food, and they can feed it. Because of the war and despair, they cherish life far more than any other. ”
"For this, they can fight anyone." Angela said word by word.
Xiao Mubai believes this, but these people have not undergone a little education, and it is estimated that they can't even calculate the trajectory, and they can only be used as peripheral forces when they are recruited, and they still have to rely on the support of special forces members in the end.
Angela said when a small Shan man came over, dressed in jungle camouflage and carrying a five-or six-flush on his back, with a slightly dull expression on his face.
"This is my new recruit for a week, Ben, you can try it out." Pointing to this small young man, Angela said to Xiao Mubai, she seemed to want him to see the true strength of the reserve force.
Xiao Mubai stared at Ben, seeing that he was standing steadily, his feet were shoulder-width apart, and his hands were at the same time as the weapon anyway, although his expression was dull, his eyes were bright, and he knew that he was no longer a newcomer. Shaking his head, he opened the suitcase and took out an SVD from the box.
After assembling the SVD sniper rifle and handing it to Ben, he pointed to the village 800 meters away with a telescope, and said, "There is a bullet in here, you only need a chance to shoot, hit that searchlight." Eight hundred meters away, almost just right. ”
Ben Note glanced at Angela, who nodded, Ben just untied five or six strokes, lying on the ground and holding the SVD to aim at the target to shoot.
Xiao Mubai's SVD is an enlarged version of AK47, which is used to five or six punches, and it doesn't take time to get used to it at all, and it can be used directly. This is already a great convenience, and if he can have such strength after a week of training, he really has to consider recruiting Burmese.
I saw Ben lying on the ground, setting up his sniper rifle and aiming at the searchlight 800 meters away. The searchlight is not large, it is no longer visible to the naked eye at a distance of 800 meters, but it can be seen clearly in the scope.
Considering the custom offset and ballistic arc, a person who has never used a sniper rifle can really hit it, then he is a shooting genius.
About three seconds later, Ben suddenly opened fire.
The muzzle device had a silencer, and the sound was not loud, Xiao Mubai stared at the searchlight. I saw that the bullet went out and hit the edge of the searchlight casing, although it did not hit the bulb, but the shot had already penetrated the bulb, and it was less than ten centimeters short of hitting the target.
Xiao Mubai nodded.
