Xiao Mengla, in the conference room of the military region, many generals sat on both sides of the oval long table without saying a word.

Ade turned his head to look at them for the moment, and fell into a stupor.

He saw a group of people who had no fighting spirit, yes, they were still caring about themselves, and on the way back, some people asked, 'Leader, are you hurt?' But it's just a concern, not a fighting spirit.

When Ade led the group of people without even resting, and walked straight to the most familiar conference room, all the generals of Eastern Shan State bowed their heads, and Ade said the words: "If my prediction is correct, the Wa State army will soon rush across the border and enter Eastern Shan State." At that time, the still silent pin drop in the conference room could be heard.

Ade is like a lamp in this room, he can only illuminate a room of dozens of square meters, and he can't drive away the darkness outside the window at all.

"Leadership ......"

The general closest to Ade spoke, "There are some things you may not know yet, after all, you have been away from Eastern Shan State for so long, haven't you?" The general seemed to be timid even to speak, and had to look back at the others for courage.

"Since the war between the front line and the new Wa State surnamed Xu, our power and network have been completely stopped in the east, and we are like being led by the old leaders to rebuild Xiaomengla in the mud, living the days of sunrise and sunset every day."

"Look at this again."

He took out the walkie-talkie on his waist, threw it on the table like a rage, and after a loud "bang" sounded, he stretched out his finger and said: "The mobile phone is no longer good, people have turned off the signal of the base station, and we can't even make a phone call when we start there, if you don't find Maozi in Meng Bo to connect to the network, we can't even talk, and now we have to use this thing to communicate!" ”

"It's 2018, communicate with walkie-talkie!"

Before he could finish speaking, the city official on the other side of Ade said: "These are okay, but the most unbearable thing is that our food can't meet the supply at all." ”

"After the East stops cooperating with us, do you know what the biggest smugglers on the ground in East Shan State are transporting now? It's not a game of life to transport small happiness outside, it's to buy grain from the east, and ship it back to make black money! ”

His voice suddenly became smaller: "That's it, we can't do anything to other people, because as long as we deal with them, those ordinary people who are waiting to be fed will have to open their mouths at us, and they will eat people." ”

Cannibalism.

It seems that the officials in the entire conference room, accustomed to putting the people's fat and people's ointment on the dining table, have forgotten that it is not only them who have long mouths, but when they remember that the people have also grown mouths, it is not a concept at all. They want to eat people, they are a few scourges and a majority, at least the people can bear it, it's a big deal like the feudal society to sacrifice to the gods, and there is nothing to offer to some boys and girls; But once the people open their mouths, even if they are all eaten, I am afraid they will not be able to eat half full.

What the officials mean, it's all like this, what are you fighting?

Let's make peace!

However, only Ade understands that it is impossible to negotiate peace.

The surnamed Xu laid down a net of heaven and earth, and restrained Kokang and the northern and southern Shan states with a rope of immortals, in order to give you a chance to meet and make peace? What do you think!

"So, we can only have a chance of life if we punch our fists out."

Ade suppressed all his voices and said, "In the past, when there was no Eastern Shan State, my father fought like this......

Everyone around them turned their heads, looking suspicious, as if to say, "Your father is no longer here." ”

But Ade had to go on: "Why can't we? ”

The general suddenly asked: "Leader, since you have said so, then I still want to ask a question, I want to know...... What should the military spirit do? ”

"More than two years ago, you took away the most elite troops in the entire Eastern Shan State, those people are from the old leaders from the war, they are fierce, brave, and not afraid of death, now you yourself have come back, open your mouth and tell us, you want to fight to the death with the new Wa State, this battle, how to fight?"

"There are planes in the new Wa State!"

In the past, no one would dare to talk to Ade like this, but now it is different, this is the last moment in East Shan, everyone has to say what they think, can you not let people say it?

"We're ......," said Adeth, after a moment's consideration, "isn't there still an army defending against the people of the Southern Wa State?" ”

The officer turned his head to look at him: "You even want to move the last seed?" ”

"Leader, then you have to think about it, once this army moves, then it will not be a one-sided battle between us and the new Wa State, as long as the people are properly deployed, we have to withstand the attack of the north and south of the Wa State, which is to take advantage of the lack of reunification of the North and South Wa States, and there will be no retreat at that time."

On the other side, the city government official spoke again: "What about the people's hearts? ”

"How do we convince the people of Eastern Shan State to come to our aid again?"

"In the past, the old leader was like a big Buddha, he was the founder of the country, and no one refuted him casually, so that we could take other people's children out to expand the territory."

"This time, when we ask for help again, if they ask you, 'How is our child now?', leader, how can you let us speak?"

Ade stopped talking, and he found that what he was facing when he came back was not a welcome and a hush, but the knives that had been spurted out of the mouths of the generals who had already been surrendered, each stabbing his heart.

You're back, you've become the commander of the light pole, what about the children?

Other people's children are not people!

The government official sighed and said, "Leader, we can't grasp the hearts of the people anymore. ”

Ade then turned his head and looked to his side.

"These days, the new Wa State has been promoting 'one country, two systems', and on the Internet, in the news media, there is an overwhelming amount of similar propaganda, they say that Wa and Eastern Shan should not be hostile; They say that even the deepest grudge should be resolved one day. ”

"Even if the Eastern Shan State does not accept the Wa State, it doesn't matter, then one country, two systems, we live our own life under the high structure, and we don't disturb each other, who has difficulties and supports each other, isn't it over?"

"They also said that the new Wa State does not want another war......"

Before they finished speaking, Meng Bo hit Bang Kang with a pestle, the key is that he hasn't beaten yet. It doesn't matter if you haven't fought, all the garrisons of Meng Bo have surrendered. ”

"Leader, if you are a common citizen of Eastern Shan State, how do you feel when you see your own troops doing such a thing?"

Ade ......

Don't dare to think about it.

He could only keep his head down, and then lower.

"Leader, now, I'm afraid we can't even stay on our own land with the people of Eastern Shan State."

City officials finally raised their hands and gave Ade the final and deadliest stab.

"After the news of Meng Bo's defeat spread, in just one day, the Xiaomengla government received nearly 4,000 legal applications to go to Bangkang, 4,000 of them."

"What about leaving Xiao Mengla through illegal channels, hiding his identity in Eastern Shan State, and sneaking over in civilian clothes?"

"Wa State has clear regulations, as long as you are willing to join the army in Wa State, they will help you get your household registration and identity."

"Leader, do you remember the wave of going abroad in the east in the eighties and nineties?"

"How many people have to leave their homes and businesses just to go to the other side of the ocean to take a look, and how many people turn their heads and scold their mothers in order to stay there and earn some beauty?"

Touch!

Ade finally couldn't stand it anymore, slapped it on the table, got up and asked the government official, "What the hell do you mean!" ”

The government official responded: "I have no intention of betraying the Eastern Shan State, I only mean to admonish with bitter words." ”

"In a backward area, there is no way to stop the people from going to the good, Bangkang has already appeared in the prototype of a big city, which will naturally attract people to lean there, and the answer to how to deal with the east has been given."

"Since you can't stop it, then don't mention it at all, and develop yourself ruthlessly, only when you are strong enough to awaken their conscience, those people will put on the hat of 'overseas traveler' for themselves."

Ade and the official looked at each other, and neither of them would back down, as if they were glaring at each other, bursting with lightning and sparks.

"I can't fight anymore."

"If we continue to fight, East Shan State will be gone!"

Ade said angrily: "It's not that I'm going to fight now, it's that the Wa State won't let us go at all, you don't understand!" ”

"Let's talk about it, at least the Wa State still has a hypocritical mask on its face, once the fight starts, people don't even need to be hypocritical with us, that's the real knife and real gun."

"How to talk about it, what do you talk to people in Eastern Shan State today?"

"What do you want, what does he Xu Ruifeng say, anyway, we have nothing, they want money, let's settle the accounts directly, they want things, we will immediately transport them to others, as long as the mouth surnamed Xu is blocked, the Wa army can't drive, don't we have a chance to take a breath?"

When Ade heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, and he felt that this was called loyalty against his ears......

Ade left his seat and stood in front of the window of the conference room, he thought he would see the lights all over the city, but what he didn't expect was that it was pitch black.

Ade pointed out the window and asked, "What's going on?" ”

The official of the city government smiled: "Leader, the reason why Xiao Mengla was able to restore electricity is because you bought it at a large price in Mengbo, you are used to spending money, we can't." ”

"How can we afford such expensive electricity?"

"So, a few of us took advantage of your absence, and privately decided the time limit for Xiaomengla's power supply, and at night, there will be a power outage after nine o'clock, except for the military and police and dignitaries who maintain law and order, the entire city is dark."

Only then did Ade understand what this battle had become!

He relied on the war debt to collect a sum of money in the Wa State, but what is the use of this money?

After you break with the east, you can only buy Maozi's high-priced electricity, and in Asia, only Maozi dares to sell your electricity, don't believe it, you stick your head next door and try it, except for a sentence of 'Savadika' to guarantee nothing.

At this time, to fight with the Wa State is to kill yourself.

Ade withdrew his gaze in the dark city, walked back with his head down, and the next second he put his hand on the shoulder of the government official who kept arguing with him, and said, "You're right." ”

I can't fight anymore, it's already difficult now!

Xiang Yu didn't want to meet Jiangdong, not only did he face Jiangdong's father speechlessly, but he didn't want to see a Jiangdong who had been completely hollowed out by himself in the war, starving everywhere.

Ade walked out of the conference room, and when he habitually returned to his office, he pushed open the door and turned on the light, sat in a spotless chair, and fell into silence alone, and the dryness in his heart could not be suppressed.

Ade stood up again, walked to the door, turned off the light with his own hands, and then lay on the windowsill behind him in the darkness by the moonlight.

Before, he didn't feel that his father Lin Minxian had any ability, wasn't he just a little brave, won this, won that, tightened his belt and laid down a Dongshan State? What's there?

Today he realized how easy it was to say these things, but how hard it was to do them!

He wanted to take out the phone and dial that familiar number, and said again respectfully: "Dad, you have worked hard." ”

But where is the chance?

The adoptive child knows the mother's kindness, and the family knows the father's suffering, and none of these old sayings are said in vain.

It was only at this moment that Ade felt that his previous pride was all an overestimation of himself, an overestimation of the slight advantage of Eastern Shan State. Once the advantages of Eastern Shan State are removed, he is at most an ordinary person, and he does not have the slightest momentum of 'don't come to help me Qingyunzhi, I will step on the snow to the top of the mountain'.

……

Bang Kang.

Late at night.

When Anne excitedly rushed into my office with a copy of the copy, I yawned and envied her age.

It's nice to be young.

The young man was able to widen his eyes in the middle of the night, and now I can't even hold my eyelids, and I still sit with a pain in the back of my belt.

But when I picked up this copy, I began to disrespect Anne's age again: "Isn't this a tiger? ”

I pushed the copy over, pointed to the loophole in the copy, and said, "What's the use of you just promoting our treatment of prisoners of war in East Shan State?" ”

"Who is expected to be grateful to Dade?"

"Propaganda, you have to be linked to the situation, what we need now is to shake the foundation of East Shan State, so can't we show them how the people of East Shan State who remain in Wa State are living?"

"You've got to find someone to hide and secretly film those troops in the Eastern Shan State in Mengmao, they have to have a joke, right? Whoever is happy will take pictures, and then investigate the identities of these people through photos, and then cooperate with the treatment we gave to the soldiers of the Eastern Shan State, and say that because we gave the soldiers of the Eastern Shan State this treatment, they are very happy every day......"

"Hey, when you say that, who can jump out and contradict you? Whoever refutes you, you will send him to the prisoner of war camp to see for himself. ”

Anne paused for a long time, and finally gave a thumbs up and said, "Master, you are really yin." ”

"That's ......" five seconds later: "Hey, what's that for you to call that!" (End of chapter)
