Chapter 1256: Border Incident

"Ambassador Mu, I'm Secretary Xiao Wu, and Minister Liu asked me to inform you to come to the ministry as soon as possible. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" said on the phone.

Mu Yang wondered, "Secretary Wu, do you know what happened when the leader asked me to go over?" ”

"I don't know."

Hung up the phone, Muyang put on his clothes and prepared to go out, he just got in the car, the phone rang again, Muyang picked it up and saw that it was a call from the Myanmar Embassy, and Muyang hurriedly answered.

"Ambassador, I'm Sheping, I have something to report to you, just four hours ago, a large-scale armed conflict broke out in northern Myanmar, and several ethnic armed forces such as Kachin, De'ang, Kokang, and Rakhine launched armed attacks on several government military garrisons at the same time, causing casualties on both sides of the conflict and civilians."

"The Myanmar government has just issued a statement confirming that the clashes have resulted in the deaths of 10 soldiers, five policemen, three pro-government militias and 12 civilians."

"And there are shells on the Burmese side that have flown into villages on the Chinese side, causing casualties."

Hanging up the phone, Mu Yang's brows furrowed, it seems that Minister Liu called himself over for this matter.

Coming to Minister Liu's office, Xiao Wu brewed a cup of tea for the two of them and withdrew, Minister Liu said: "It seems that your vacation needs to be interrupted, do you know what happened in Myanmar." ”

Muyang nodded, "I just received a call from the embassy, and they informed me about the armed conflict that had just taken place in Myanmar. ”

"We have also just received news that there has been a clash between ethnic forces and government forces in Myanmar, and an artillery shell has fallen into our cloud. Four civilians were killed and nine injured in a village in the southern city of Lincang. ”

Mu Yang also nodded with a heavy face.

Minister Liu continued: "In addition, after the outbreak of this conflict, it caused panic among the Myanmar people, and a large number of Myanmar people crossed the border and fled to China for refuge. Nan sent a report saying that nearly 10,000 people had already fled to China, and this caused us a lot of trouble. ”

"The chiefs are now looking at how to deal with the matter. Now our country is investing a lot of money in Myanmar, especially since our oil and gas pipelines have just been opened, and those militants will cause us great losses if they sabotage. ”

Muyang thought for a while and said: "Since Sai Maokang came to power, he has also been trying to solve the problem of national armed forces in the country, and the government's request is that only by laying down their arms can they be allowed to participate in the peace process, while some ethnic armed forces say that they cannot accept this bottom line." ”

"Now the remaining ethnic armed forces in Myanmar are only some small forces, and the general number will not exceed 1,000 people, but they are like maggots on the tarsal bones that cannot be removed, and it is difficult to eliminate them at one time.

"Leader, I will rush back to Myanmar as soon as possible to meet President Sai Mao Kang and lodge a protest against China."

Later that day, Vice Foreign Minister Liu urgently summoned the Myanmar ambassador to China to make solemn representations over the deaths and injuries caused by Burmese artillery shells.

The next day.

Answering a reporter's question in Beijing on the exchange of fire between ethnic armed forces and Burmese government forces in northern Myanmar, the spokesperson of the Chinese Foreign Ministry said that the Chinese side has lodged solemn representations with regard to the incident in which artillery shells flew into China en route, killing and injuring Chinese citizens, urging the Burmese side to conduct a thorough investigation into the incident and inform the Chinese side of the results, severely punish the perpetrators, properly handle the aftermath, and immediately take effective measures to prevent the recurrence of similar incidents and earnestly safeguard the security and stability of the China-Myanmar border areas.

In response to a reporter's question on the situation in northern Myanmar, the Information Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense of China said that the Chinese armed forces are closely following the development of the situation in northern Myanmar and hopes that both sides of the conflict will remain calm and exercise restraint, avoid further escalation of the situation, and avoid the occurrence of incidents that undermine China's sovereignty and security. The Chinese armed forces are on high alert and taking necessary measures to resolutely safeguard national sovereignty and security, as well as the lives and property of Chinese border residents.

The next day, after simply packing his luggage, Muyang boarded the plane back to Myanmar.

On the Internet, many netizens expressed their anger.

"The death of a military in peacetime is really heartbreaking."

"We strongly demand that Myanmar make a public apology to the families of the deceased and actively do a good job in compensation and compensation, and pray for world peace because civilians are ultimately injured in the war."

"Damn, it's all dead, and it's condemnation, can the Ministry of Foreign Affairs do anything else."

"It's really aggrieved, suggesting that the country send troops to defeat Burma, and then turn it into a province of China, just seize an outlet to the Indian Ocean, and let our country's warships go around the open sea."

"In the era of peace, peace is the mainstay, China is a civilized country, and things are pure, let's make it clear, and wait and see how the dead rest in peace."

Back in Myanmar, Muyang immediately met Sai Maokang as a diplomatic ambassador, and Aung Hye (Xiaoying) was also present.

Mu Yang said with a gloomy face: "What is going on, why did the shells fly into China, who fired the shells to let you eliminate the rebels, not to let you create border incidents, but also with China, this matter is very evil." ”

"Sir, I regret the deaths of Chinese civilians caused in this conflict, and I will deal with this matter as soon as possible and give China an explanation."

"The main thing is that we are pressing too hard, they feel that there is no way to live, so they are doing the final death throes," Aung Hlaing said. ”

"The problem now is that the conflict has seriously affected the security of the China-Myanmar border. My opinion is that if we want Myanmar's economic development, we must solve the problem of all ethnic armed groups in Myanmar as soon as possible, and if the negotiations are useful, what do we need guns, and some people will never give up their rights and interests if they do not bury them in the ground. Mu Yang said coldly.

"Don't come little by little, but also put aside the so-called international public opinion, make adequate military preparations, and then crush them all in one fell swoop, and it is best to completely stabilize the situation in Myanmar within this year."

Sometimes you can be merciful, but sometimes, for the sake of the overall situation, for the sake of real peace, you can't be soft-hearted and reason with a group of people who are used to being the king of the mountain, how can it be so easy, their appetite is too big, their appetite is difficult to fill, and they can't be fed at all, so it's better to speak directly with strength.

And it's the fastest, more effective, and less likely to do so.

Two days later, the Burmese government held a press conference to formally apologize to the Chinese side for the casualties caused to Chinese civilians and appointed the Myanmar foreign minister to go to China in person to deal with the casualties of Chinese border residents. (To be continued.) )
