Chapter Ninety-Three: Lancang Commune
readx;
Indochina Peninsula, located in the south of the Ming Republic and north of the South Seas, has been a place of four wars and ethnic integration since ancient times. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At the beginning of the 20th century, after two world wars, this place successively gained freedom from the shackles of colonizers, and successively established various countries, including Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, Bangladesh, among which Cambodia and Thailand, which are located in the south, are both Buddhist countries, both are the territory of Theravada Buddhism, and have quite a lot of commonalities, but because of the historical problems such as Preah Vihear Temple, the competition between the tourism industry, etc., the two countries are not peaceful, and can be said to be hostile to each other.
So a few years ago, deep on the northern border between the two countries, taking advantage of the contradictions between the two countries, a third force, the Lancang Commune, took advantage of the situation, although it had not yet achieved legal status, in terms of military power, it was enough to frighten the two countries and not dare to offend them easily.
Siem Reap Airport, the only way to Cambodia's famous tourist attraction Angkor Wat, in order not to irritate other countries and prevent dissidents from discovering it, Shen Heng and Zhang Zongheng adopted a relatively low-key and disguised investigation method, first went to the tourist attractions to wander around for a few days, and then received their own supplies through local connectors, and then killed all the way to their destination.
They took tuk-tuks, the most popular means of transport in the region, light enough to carry people, but not easily restricted by mud puddles and so on, and headed northeast to an area called Pakse, which from here was the territory of the Lancang Commune.
Jumping off the tuk-tuk, Shen Heng glanced around, he was still wearing plain clothes, as an capable person, his combat power was all focused on his own ability, but it was not as big as Zhang Zongheng's loss.
Even so, each of them was equipped with a small feminine ray pistol, a call-and-locate communication device, which made it easier for them to carry out their work.
"Old Shen, we haven't seen each other for almost two years, right?" Zhang Zongheng walked in front and burrowed into the tropical rainforest, surrounded by humid and hot, full of poisonous insects, birds and beasts, which was extremely dangerous for ordinary people.
"Yes, I didn't expect to see you for so long, the spaceship of the ancient saints has greatly shortened the time for humans to travel to other planets, and every scavenging activity still takes so much time, making it difficult for people to have a chance to meet."
"That's right, we're still moving relatively closely, the spaceship of the Ancient Sages is so advanced that it's actually enough to take us to a world nearly a thousand light-years away, but no scavengers have tried it."
"By the way, I heard that you were injured a few days ago, are you recovering now?"
"I didn't think you knew about such a thing? Listen to what Li Fang said? Shen Heng followed behind, extremely light, he was even thinking about tying himself to a rope and tying the other end to Zhang Zongheng's hand, so that he could swing there like a kite, without any strength to move forward.
He replied: "There is no problem with my injuries anymore. ”
Zhang Zongheng was silent for a while, he himself was only level 4 of the new human, and he heard that Shen Heng was dealing with a guy whose combat power far exceeded that of level 4 of the new human, why did he speak so easily.
"Why don't you speak, is the work of the Ruins Integration Mechanism going well?"
"Okay, I'm a director, on the one hand, I have to be responsible for doing something at work, on the other hand, I can still go to scavenging, it's still very free, and now I also have a small net worth, there are several Internet companies with a market value of more than one billion, you know, some time ago, I also invested 1.5 billion shares in 10 shares of ns, which happened to be the second winter in the mobile game industry, and the market value of many companies fell sharply, so the return was quite large."
"I didn't expect you to be still keen on your childhood hobby, so that as an investor, you can let those studios develop the games you want to develop, right?"
"It can be said that this is the case, of course, I am happy." Zhang Zongheng was rarely excited, "It's you, when are you getting married?" It must be cool to marry the richest girl in the world. My grandfather is still thinking about it, how did General Shen decide to do such a family affair back then, is it an uncertain prophet? It's so enviable. ”
"Well, I think we need to deepen our communication." Shen Heng replied that he was very sure that Aurora did like him, and he was never so anxious and enthusiastic about that kind of serious matter.
They trekked on foot through dozens of kilometers of dense forests that seemed like moats to ordinary people, and with the change of terrain, in the basin surrounded by mountains, villages as far as the eye could see, and they knew that they had made a detour into the control area of the Lancang Commune.
"You see, this is the place where many villages are armed, and they are heavily guarded, from the only path that comes in, to the area around the mountain village and at the highest point."
Shen Heng looked at the peaceful village hundreds of meters away, "How did their weapons come from?" ”
"Smuggling. You should know that the least valuable thing in the ruins is an electromagnetic rifle, but they are so powerful that in the hands of a veteran, they are enough to take out a small group of soldiers, including their armored vehicles. ”
It turned out to be smuggling, and the ruins integration agency set many rules, but not many of them were strictly enforced, and the prohibition of the flow of relics, especially weapons that could be used for killing, was the strictest, because it would threaten the lives of many people, as well as the rule.
"It's a very lucrative business." Shen Heng commented that he remembered that the Tunguska Group was also doing this kind of quiet thing, as long as it gave dozens of electromagnetic rifles of the ancient saints to many small places, it was enough to exchange for an incredible amount of gold, gems, drugs and other substitutes as remuneration, which was very profitable.
He continued: "So what is their purpose?" ”
"It should be to build your own country." Zhang Zongheng replied: "They were instigated by the subordinates of the dissident Ha Zhen, and in the past six months, they declared their independence from the government, and the governments of both countries had a headache and did not want to take care of things, because it was actually the people who were not very popular who announced autonomy, and the cost of recovering the land would be very large, and there were no resources there." ”
"Well, this kind of thing gives them a headache, what interests us is the true purpose of the dissidents, they definitely don't have such good intentions, let's find out the truth."
They traveled through the dense forest through dozens of villages in the outermost part of the region, reaching nearly 10,000 square kilometers into the town of Kishareel in the center of the region, where they might have the opportunity to find the key to the matter.
