Balu and Zhanpeng went to the study, and Nanxi sat alone in the living room working, but the news that popped up on the screen caught her attention.
"Instability has emerged within the military, with numerous officers receiving death threats. The government has ordered a thorough investigation. To stabilize military morale, after nominations from the Cabinet and a fair internal military vote, it has been decided to appoint Commander Sakun as General, giving him unified command of the three armed forces.
In addition, the Naypyidaw Military Region will be separated and incorporated into the Ministry of National Defense, and the area actually controlled by the military in northern Myanmar will be placed under the jurisdiction of the Mandalay Military Region. Military officials headed by Sakun will be relocated back to the Yangon Southern Military Region.
In this way, the power originally under the control of the military was divided into three parts. On the surface, there seemed to be no major changes, but any discerning person could see that this was a division of the military's power, with the intention of defeating them one by one.
Nanxi's eyebrows were tightly knitted.
Instability? Death threats?
Are you referring to Balut?
According to news reports, this directly squeezed Meng Ge out of the center of power.
No wonder Balu didn't come home all night.
Based on her understanding of Baru, he would definitely not suffer this loss in silence. He would definitely fight back to Yangon and march into Naypyidaw. If he got angry, he would even launch a military coup to overthrow the regime.
However, the Aung Suu government is now popular and gaining momentum, so it is not the best time to take action.
Bang--
Nanxi was still daydreaming when the door of the study upstairs was forcefully opened and Barumai rushed out.
Zhan Peng followed closely behind, trying to pull him back, "Along, calm down."
"Calm down, what the hell? They're shitting on our necks, how can I calm down? If you want to be calm, do it yourself. I'm going to kill someone right now."
Nanxi twitched the corners of her mouth. It seemed that the two of them went in to discuss this matter, but they couldn't reach a consensus.
She knew how much of a blow this incident was to a soldier. Any man with blood in his veins would not tolerate the city of glory he had built with his flesh, blood and youth being occupied and trampled upon by others.
She sighed, "Alu, are you going out?"
The man, whose blood was surging, finally regained some of his rationality, and his tense face relaxed. "Okay. Honey, you stay at home and let Biaozi handle anything."
"Okay." The little woman nodded, "But, I want to eat this, can you open it for me?"
She grabbed a few macadamia nuts and handed them over.
The man turned around and signaled his good brother to wait outside. He walked over, picked up the fruit with his big hands and squeezed it for a long time, but couldn't break it.
"What the hell is this crap? Biaozi doesn't have eyes when buying snacks."
He has never been greedy, and his only need for food is to fill his stomach. Before he met Nanxi, he didn't even have the concept of snacks.
The man tried twice but saw no response, so he put the macadamia nut on the table, pulled out a saber from his waist, fixed it with his left index finger and thumb, and with his right hand, he raised the knife and split the nut in half.
He took out the fine white kernel inside and handed it over, "Here, eat it."
He wanted to crack a second one, but Nanxi took out a can of macadamia nuts with the word "China" printed on it from a pile of snacks.
The macadamia nuts from China have an artificial cut on them, made with a small iron tool.
She picked up the tool with her small hand, inserted one end into the crack of the fruit, and twisted it gently. The fruit cracked open, and she took out the flesh completely and stuffed it into the man's mouth.
Baru chewed the fruit pulp that did not suit his taste buds. The redness in his eyes gradually faded. He stared at his wife and pursed his lips.
"But I won't give up, baby."
The moment she opened the fruit herself, the man understood what she wanted to say.
"I followed Brother Meng, fighting all the way from the Golden Triangle back then. Countless brothers lost their lives before we made it to Yangon. I couldn't bear to see the results of all those years of fighting so hard be stolen so easily by those scum in the politicians and military."
"I'm not trying to persuade you to give up. I'm just saying, don't use brute force. Use some finesse. You're angry right now. Calm down."
"I know," Baru took out a cigarette, twisted it in his hand, and looked at his wife. "Raising an army out of anger is a taboo in military strategy. You said that."
The little woman smiled and said, "I'm just worried that something might happen to you. You know, I'm most worried about you getting into trouble."
The man looked up, his Adam's apple moved, he stepped over and held the back of her head, kissed the top of her head, his voice magnetic from his throat,
"Yeah, I know, baby."
He held her in his arms, greedily inhaling the faint fragrance from her body. It was a long time before he let go. His heart was at peace, and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
"Okay, have fun by yourself, I'm going to the military camp."
"Yeah." Nanxi smiled and took the initiative to lean forward and kissed his lips, "My Dailong is so handsome."
…
In the lush green jungle at an altitude of 1,600 meters on Ruokai Mountain, the wreckage of a plane that had deviated from its course silently told how fierce the attack scene a few days ago was. In a hidden cave on a mountain higher than the wreckage of the plane, Song Cai, his military uniform dirty and torn, with bloodstains all over his body, was guarding the cave entrance with a gun in his hand.
After days of fighting and fleeing, only Captain Suoli was left of the elite guards who had parachuted with them. He knew some medical skills and was taking care of Wu Meng, who was seriously injured and in a deep coma.
"Commander Songchai—" the voice inside called out to him, "The commander's wound has become infected and festered. We must quickly find a way to get him to the hospital for emergency treatment. It will be too late if we delay."
Upon hearing this, Song Cai rushed in in a panic. Looking at the unconscious Wu Meng, he wiped his face fiercely and said, "Send him? How can we send him? Sakun's decapitation team is right below. All our communication equipment is damaged. We don't even know if we can survive until tomorrow."
The weather in the mountains suddenly changed, with dark clouds gathering not far away, as if a storm was brewing.
The air was filled with the smell of earth, the cave was damp and cold, bats were hanging overhead, and unknown reptiles passed by from time to time. The daily necessities and medicines collected from the wreckage of the plane had been used up, and their current situation was truly out of food and ammunition.
"How about waiting until it's completely dark, I'll make some noise to distract them, and you can escape with the commander." Suoli's voice was solemn, and a deadly determination was on his cold face.
"No, we don't have navigation and are completely unfamiliar with the surrounding terrain. The other party's search radius is getting smaller and smaller. Even if we go out, we will be found and shot to death before we can get out of this deep forest." Song Cai analyzed rationally.
"The best way now is for one of us to escape, find a nearby village, find a cell phone, send the location to Aaron, and ask him to bring people over."
"But we've been searching for three days and can't get out of this forest, let alone find the village."
"Soli, you know nursing skills. Stay here and guard the Commander. It's going to rain in a few hours. If I go out in the rain, my traces and scent will be washed away, and the search dogs won't be able to find me. This is our last hope. Life or death depends on fate."
Song Cai patted Sori's shoulder and said, "The Commander is the last politician in Myanmar with a conscience and courage. Even if it means death, we must not let anything happen to him. Do you understand?"
