"From here to the Yunnan border is more than 900 kilometers, even to the area controlled by the Free Army, it must be more than 600 kilometers, although the British forces are concentrated near Yangon and the northern front in Mandalay, but once they get our accurate information, they will definitely send a large number of men and horses to chase them, and we had better hide our whereabouts." Chen Chi pointed to the map and said to the team members, looking up with a frown, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

The expressions of the team members can be described in three words, that is, it doesn't matter, only themselves and the guide sent by the Investigation Bureau have sad faces. This is a good escape, please come up with a little escape posture, the current atmosphere is obviously an outing!

"Over to you, we believe in you!" Captain Bai Xing patted Chen Chi on the shoulder, looking righteous and awe-inspiring, Chen Chi couldn't wait to kick it, blaming himself for usually spoiling them.

"It is not difficult to escape from the British, we can turn east, through the Tayni Thanong Mountains into Thailand, which is not yet a British colony, and although it is still in the British sphere of influence, there are not many garrisons after all. Once in Thailand, we can head south and board a ship from Bangkok to return to China, or wait in Bangkok for the outcome of the battle and the situation will be less tense before looking for a chance to return home. After all, there is also a sub-station of the Investigation Bureau in Bangkok, and we are not afraid of finding an organization when we go there. ”

Although everyone looked relaxed, they knew in their hearts that this escape was not easy, not to mention the pursuit of the British, just looking at the area through which this route passed made people's hearts furious. Geographical terms such as subtropical and tropical jungle are not enough to describe the horror of the environment, and can only be experienced after going deeper. Mountains, canyons, jungles, mosquitoes, snakes and ants, and no man's land, it is extremely dangerous to rush into that mountain when the materials are not well prepared. Moreover, the sea snake is not a special force directly under the General Staff, those people will not have a problem even if they live in the jungle for a few years, and the sea snake can live at sea for several months with a plank and some fishing line. There is a specialization in the art industry!

"In my opinion, the most important thing now is how to break through the British blockade, it is estimated that the land and sea routes are watched by the British, and if you want to break through the blockade, you have to go through the deserted mountains and forests. Fortunately, we only have 26 people, not tens of thousands of troops. Those jungles can't stop us. Captain Bai Xing finally said something, but was immediately vetoed by Chen Chi.

"No, our location is right in the middle of several rivers, and Rangoon is in the delta of the estuary of the Irrawaddy, Salween, and Siddang rivers, and there are inland rivers everywhere, and the British patrol boats have to patrol back and forth on these rivers, and the waterways can be completely blocked."

The field trip confirmed Chen's claim that the rivers were full of British patrol boats, with an average of one patrol boat passing by every ten minutes. From time to time, there were British and Indian patrols on land, and sea snakes tried to smuggle in by diving, but were stopped by their guides, on the grounds that the river was full of fierce animals such as estuarine crocodiles, piranhas, and electric cranes, and the locals avoided the places where the ferocious animals were found when fishing on the river, but those places were more populated and easy to spot.

Despite its name, the team members didn't want to try to get into the water to fight the world's largest reptile hand-to-hand, as far as Chen Chi knew. Asian estuarine crocodiles are even larger than Nile crocodiles, and it is not much more trouble to kill yourself than to kill an antelope. Even more creepy are the piranhas. Or tiger fish, they are more feared than crocodiles.

The helpless sea snakes hid in a dense forest, eating snake meat and drinking dew, but they did not know that the storm was beginning to come in Yangon at this time.

In the Ruida Light Pagoda, Master Hu Poduo did not have the solemn momentum of the treasure, but was replaced by the anger that the Buddhists did not have. The raids led by the British left the Ruida Light Tower in disarray. The golden bells, silver bells, gold leaf, diamonds, diamonds, etc. on the light tower were looted, and the colonists did not interfere in the religious affairs of Myanmar for many years.

Seventy-five monks in the light tower were killed and wounded, and many precious Buddha statues and sculptures did not escape the catastrophe. If it weren't for himself and the monks standing in front of the tower, it is estimated that the bandits would have burned this place to ruins.

As the highest-ranking master in Myanmar, he has a high reputation in the Buddhist world and among the people. This incident angered him, and although the British sent someone to appease him at about six o'clock in the morning, there was no act of reparation, not even an apology for the looting.

Therefore, Master Hu Po Duo is ready to punish those bandits by himself, the Buddha does not teach people to repay grievances with virtue, he wants to incarnate to defeat the Buddha, in order to return the justice of the world!

"Master, the news from the vicinity of Yangon has been passed on, just waiting for your instructions." Xi Guan, the leader of the Burmese Buddhist YMCA, came to report that as early as when Yong Jimi launched a free army uprising, Xi Guan took the lead in establishing the Buddhist YMCA in an attempt to free Burma from British rule like Yong Jimi, but it was only because Hu Poduo and other high-level Buddhist leaders did not nod that they did not let the YMCA embark on the road of armed insurrection.

"How many people are there?"

"Thirty thousand monks agreed to participate, but the presiding officers of the monasteries said they could mobilize tens of thousands of non-governmental people to participate. Monks from other parts of the country are also heading to Yangon, and word has not yet been passed on from the places further north, but presumably they will join us. ”

The tiger woman nodded and was merciful, this time he was going to organize a march of 100,000 people to put pressure on the British in this way. The destruction of the temples by the British, the looting of their belongings, and the killing and wounding of monks have led to the accumulation of great resentment among the Buddhist community and the people, and if this resentment is not vented, it is likely to cause unimaginable consequences. Through the procession, not only can you vent your grievances and express your emotions, but also make the British realize the seriousness, and the most important thing is not to let this resentment turn into death and blood, which is the essential purpose of Master Hu Po Duo.

At about 8 a.m., British soldiers and policemen patrolling the city of Yangon noticed an anomaly, as the number of civilians and monks on board was increasing, and although they did not gather in one place, they clearly exceeded the usual number. However, the soldiers were ordered to look for the attackers, turning a blind eye to the civilians and monks, and the police noticed the anomaly, but after reporting to the higher-ups, there was no response - Admiral Kitchener was still busy with the attack and did not have time to deal with the sudden increase in civilians.

The neglect of the gold grabbing by the British colonial elite and the status of Buddhism in Burma objectively facilitated the riots, and of course, there were local British officials who paid attention to the matter, but officials who knew the Burmese environment were kept out by Kitchener. Kitchener's reasoning is that Myanmar is now under military rule, and the military has the final say on one matter, and the task of finding the attacker is greater than one, and everything has to make way for this matter!

Kitchener, who had been complained of bureaucracy and dictatorship by officials, finally reaped the consequences, and at about 10 a.m. the streets of pedestrians and monks swelled and quickly concentrated at the Rada Light Tower, where tens of thousands of people soon gathered. After that, the 30,000-strong people began to march to the main streets of Yangon, and a large number of civilians poured in along the way, resulting in an increase of 100,000 people in a short period of time, accounting for almost half of the population in Yangon City.

The chaotic procession was unorganized, the crowd was just blindly marching under the leadership of a few masters at the head of the line, and of course, slogans were an essential element of the procession. "Punish the bandits!" "Hand over the gold!" The police and soldiers on the streets were caught off guard and had to wait for the huge procession to pass without an order from their superiors.

At this time, Kitchener finally gave the first order against the procession, blocking the way of the procession, so at several intersections about 3,000 meters in front of the procession, the British sent three Indian infantry battalion soldiers to intercept it, and the rest of the soldiers and police continued to track down the whereabouts of the attackers.

It can be seen that Admiral Kitchener still did not pay enough attention to the marchers, and it is no wonder that during the period of British rule in Burma, only the independent army led by Yong Zhimi dared to rebel against the British, and it was concentrated in the barbaric north, while in the south, the Burmese completely submitted to British rule and behaved extremely docile. Who would have thought that this march would turn into an armed insurrection?

Ma Kui, the head of the Yangon station of the Investigation Bureau, fully anticipated the outcome of the march, as he sent more than 30 gunmen from his squad to blend into the procession. After the British imposed martial law, Marqui knew that the Sea Serpents would not be able to break through the British blockade so easily, and the best way he could think of was to divert the attention of the British.

When you are sleepy, someone sends a pillow, when you are hungry, someone sends a barbecue (it is said that the author has little knowledge, and his favorite is barbecue), and when he is lonely, someone sends an art film, and the news that Master Hu Poduo is about to organize a parade soon reached Ma Kui, and he felt that this was a great opportunity, of course, he would not let it go, and immediately asked people to contact the Free Army, as well as the leader of the YMCA, Xiguan.
