Two days later, the first batch of equipment needed by the Dongfeng Corps was in place, along with a team of 200 mercenaries organized by the Wood Ghosts.

Although the wood ghosts are already considered a first-class mercenary group in the entire Mengka and even the entire Shan State, in fact, the quality of these people still makes Chen Shen shake his head.

Except for the 8-person elite combat team, all the other mercenaries looked lazy and unscrupulous, and at a glance, their quality was no better than that of the Kokang Alliance that Chen Shen ran out of.

And this is already considered a high-quality existence among mercenaries.

At least they know the basic coordination and have learned when to shoot and when not to shoot.

Don't think it's ridiculous, this alone is enough for most of the mercenaries here to train for three months

Chen Shen couldn't hope too much for them, but since he wanted them to play a role, basic training still had to be done.

As a result, the work fell to Chesri, and in exchange, the teaching materials on "river battles" that Chen Shen had promised before were provided to Chesli for free.

Text version.

Want him to teach and teach by example?

Hey, let's talk again.

While the teams of the wood ghosts and Chesri were training, Chen Shen was not idle.

The plan of attack on Xiao Tianyuan Village immediately entered the discussion stage, and the commanders of the three sides sat down together and began to deduce the follow-up attack strategy based on the information that was now available.

"The topography of the small pastoral village is relatively simple, with a flat basin of nearly 5 square kilometers and about 2 kilometers in the middle, surrounded by mountains, forming a natural barrier."

"If we want to attack the core area of this base, we must first break through the perimeter defense line and complete the deployment in the mountains on the edge of the basin."

"But here's the problem, Nuo Kang has set up a number of sentinel posts outside the basin, and the control range has reached about 5 kilometers horizontally and vertically."

"As long as our large forces enter this range, they will inevitably be detected."

"Nuo Kham has plenty of time to escape, and with our manpower, it is simply not enough to complete the interception, and it is impossible to organize an effective pursuit."

"It's very, very troublesome, it's not a problem to fight a mouse, it's how to surround a mouse and prevent it from running away, it's the biggest problem."

It was the commander of the wood ghost who spoke, nicknamed Old Pig, don't look at his name casually, but in fact he himself is an experienced warrior, and he is not weak in commanding talent.

The advice he put forward can be to the point and hit the nail on the head.

And after hearing his words, the jackal on the side also answered:

"Indeed, with the heavy firepower prepared by the sunken ship, there is no problem at all in knocking out the camp in Nuo Kham, and 360 shells are basically enough to destroy the main gathering area of Xiaotianyuan Village."

"Coupled with the fact that we still have mortars and cloudburst shells, the lethality of light infantry units has been almost stretched to the limit, and after a round of fire coverage, the infantry advance will be very simple."

"It is impossible to maintain the morale of the other side, and at the beginning of the battle, it must be a one-sided situation."

"But here comes the problem - we have plenty of firepower, but not enough personnel."

"In case the other party finds out that they can't beat it and runs away, then what should we do? I can't stop it! ”

After speaking, he looked at Chen Shen with the old pig, waiting for his answer.

Chen Shen frowned and shook his head, and replied:

"I've thought about attacking with fire, but the problem is that it's so big that when a fire ignites, it's out of our control."

"You can't dig a firebreak, you can't put out a fire, and in the end, you burn the whole forest, and finally turn it into an international incident, then there's really no way to end it."

"A relatively reliable way is to touch all the sentinel points on the periphery synchronously-—— but there are too many uncontrollable factors in this plan, in case we miss even one, the operation can be declared a failure."

Speaking of this, Chen Shen couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

It's no wonder that the operation to capture Nuo Kang in the previous life was so difficult, and it failed three times in a row.

The position chosen by this dog day is really easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the defensive strategy is really to highlight a fear of death.

Forced to the back, the north is even planning to launch a drone air strike, if it weren't for Nuo Kang himself frightened and wanted to cross the border from Myanmar to Laos, it was really not certain whether he could be caught.

Looking at the jackal and the old pig who were looking at each other, Chen Shen shook his head and continued:

"The crux of the problem we are facing now is essentially only one, and that is: the place is too big and there are too few people to search."

"To solve this problem, there are actually only two directions we can choose."

"Or, shrink his living space and force him into the core area of the small pastoral village."

"Either way, we'll have to add more people and increase our investigative control."

"But it is basically impossible to add people, and there are too many forces involved, and the subsequent distribution of benefits will become very complicated, and it is not conducive to unified command."

"Therefore, the only feasible solution is to compress the living space."

"Is there anything else you can do other than fire attack?"

Hearing Chen Shen's question, the jackal and the old pig immediately fell into deep thought.

To be honest, if this kind of problem is really placed in the context of large-scale operations, it is actually not a problem at all.

Ten and surround, I will directly pull the wall and sweep it over, what can you do?

But now the Dongfeng Corps has too few manpower, and it can be organized by barely searching the mountains, but once the other party forcibly breaks through, it is almost impossible to block the too weak defense line.

"Gas? Blackwood? ”

The jackal asked.

"Poison gas can't be done, can you get it in Chesri? Wanfeng Group can't get it anyway. ”

"As for Bray. It's basically useless, unless it's an airdrop mine, the density can't keep up, which means that there is no cloth. ”

The old pig immediately shook his head.

"What about communication suppression? Electronic interference? ”

"No, this thing solves the core problem at all-—— so what if you take it by surprise? After the battle began, Nuo Kang could still run. ”

, it's hard.

Chen Shen exhaled hard, he could now understand the mentality of the people who had cockroaches in their homes.

Who can't kill a cockroach? But if you don't kill on the spot, it will be very disgusting to be drilled into some corner.

Because you don't know when it will come out, whether it will crawl on your face while you are asleep

But dealing with cockroaches can at least be the same as what the Tibetan fox teacher said, rub some boric acid balls and let him die in an invisible place after eating them, but Nuokang

Ay?

Chen Shen suddenly realized.

"I see."

"We're all too narrow-minded."

Hearing his words, the other two immediately looked at him.

"How?"

"Fencing doesn't have to be physical, it can also be psychological."

Chen Shen continued:

"We always want to fence him off with a physical fence, but it's actually the psychological fence that's more effective."

"First of all, the first point, Xiaotianyuan Village is his largest camp, no matter what, he can't give up at will, at least he has to try it first."

"The second point is that if he loses, even if he wants to run, he has to seek refuge in all directions."

"Therefore, we want to arrest him, the focus is not on catching, but on fighting!"

"What we have to do is to suppress the direction in which he seeks refuge."

"We have to let out the word as soon as we start fighting, whoever dares to take in Nuo Kang will beat him, where Nuo Kang appears last, as long as he is touched, we will put him on the list."

"No matter the cost, until you die."

"We obviously have this strength because we represent Northern Shan State, or even Wa State, Thailand. Under our oppression, it is impossible for the small forces in the entire Golden Triangle to accept him. ”

"Then, he only has three options left."

"Either find the Pamang Battalion, or find the 505th Brigade, or hide and flee in your own shelter."

"But now there's a big background, everyone thinks Big Brother wants Nuo Kang to die - and Big Brother may really want Nuo Kang to die."

"Therefore, there is a high probability that the Thai side will not have a calf with him, maybe they are planning to do it themselves."

"There is only one 505 brigade that can provide him with shelter."

"And he didn't know that the 505 Brigade had already . Defected. ”

"Nuokang is a cockroach, and the 505 Brigade is a boric acid pill."

"Contact Zhao Jialiang, he knows what to do!"

The jackal and the old pig nodded together, and after a while, the old pig suddenly asked:

"What if he didn't choose the 505th Brigade, but really ran away?"

Chen Shen smiled.

"Can you run a monk, can you run a temple?"

"I'm not playing Nuo Kang, he has so many safe houses, so many little wives, and after the main force is swept away, he will immediately start a sweeping activity."

"I will sweep away all his resources, kill all the remnants, and I will force him to eat that pill, because if he doesn't eat it, he won't be able to live."

"Nuo Kang will definitely die, but he doesn't have to die directly on the battlefield."

"Cut off his roots, cut off his nourishment, and he will die if he doesn't die!"

"Okay, got it!"

The jackal slapped the table decisively, and then said:

"Then we'll just fight, and let's beat his main force first!"

"I completely understand your train of thought, everyone else wants to behead Nuo Kang, you want to break his body and suffocate his head to death due to lack of oxygen!"

"That's right!"

Chen Shen replied firmly.

So, this strategy, which seemed simple and crude to the point of being a little outrageous, was decided.

In the next few days, during the window period of waiting for the equipment to arrive, Chen Shen was not idle.

He organized a team to go to the vicinity of Xiaotianyuan Village, completed a field reconnaissance, and then worked out refined offensive tactics according to the reconnaissance situation.

——

That's right, the strategy can be coarse, but the tactics must be fine.

And with the continuous feedback of the reconnaissance situation, as the granularity of intelligence continues to shrink, he has more and more details, even to the extent that he can play conspiracy on paper.

The tactics are ripe.

At the same time, the joint training of Chesri and the Wood Ghost troops was basically completed, and the two sides had basic tacit understanding and cooperation.

On March 1, the last batch of equipment of the Dongfeng Corps was in place.

It was 50 mules, donkeys and ponies collected from all over the world.

All the equipment was loaded onto the horse, and more than 200 people of the Dongfeng Corps were ready to go.

Before leaving, Chen Shen delivered an inspiring speech according to the requirements of other parties.

——

But his speech was actually only a few sentences.

"Our cause is just, and our goal is clear!"

"Want to get rich? Do it if you want! ”

"Let's fight! Nuo Kang put everything he had there!"

"Kill him, and all the honor and all the treasure will be yours!"

With that, he waved his hand violently, and all the members boarded the boat and boarded the bus.

This small team was divided into two routes, all the way along the Mekong River, dragging out long waves, splitting waves and surging down, all the way along the Mengyang Highway, carrying rolling dust and smoke forward.

The elite team on the ground will turn into the path at Taping, then pass through Mengyu and join the ships at the Wampa Phuoc location.

Here they will enter the final stages of preparation, and once the offensive is launched, it will be .

Unstoppable!

At the same time, the small pastoral village.

Nuo Kang already knew of Weng Miao's death, and at this time he fell into an unprecedented confusion.

In less than a month, the generals under his command died one after another, and they died suddenly, and they couldn't even understand why.

The only thing he knew was one thing, and that was:

Someone wants to die, and the other person is so arrogant that he wants to kill himself in the simplest and most brutal way.

This is a serious provocation to oneself and a challenge to one's own position.

Run?

Of course, running away is also one of the options.

However, the other party does not represent any official power, if it runs away like this, then what will you do in the future?

At the very least, you have to fight first.

If you win, no matter how big the loss is, you can get back all the things you lost before.

If you lose, you will at least have a way out, and you will have a chance to make a comeback!

So, he made a decision and ordered all his troops to retreat and hold on to the small pastoral village.

At this time, Zapo, the only remaining leader of the fruit, stood in front of him, reporting the latest information to him.

"The composition of the other party's personnel can basically be determined, all of them are Mengka's mercenaries."

"One of them is the Dongfeng Corps, the one that killed Sang Kang before."

"They are approaching us along the waterway and are expected to be in Wampafu in two hours."

"We were going to launch a wave of raids there, but the opposing ground forces arrived first - in armored vehicles."

"They set up a defensive line first and pushed us back. It's robust. ”

"We may have to retreat and defend first, boss, it's really not good, you go first, right?"

Hearing Zapo's words, Nuo Kang shook his head fiercely.

He crushed a pill, put it in front of his nose and took a hard breath, then said:

"Since they dare to come, I have no reason to run."

"They thought I'd run?! What are they?! ”

"Let's talk about it! We have 1,500 people and they only have two hundred! ”

"Anyway, the advantage is mine!"

"The small pastoral village is easy to defend and difficult to attack, they want to break in?"

"Then let's see how many lives they have, enough to fertilize my land!"
