"Dad, my eldest brother has been murdered. What are we waiting for if we don't send troops as soon as possible?"
Bai Suocheng looked up at his second son, who was even more unruly than Bai Yingteng, and let out a long sigh of relief:
“Yingchang, our Bai family has not been trampled on like this for many years.”
"We will definitely send troops. I want all the people of Kokang to see the consequences of offending me, Bai Suocheng."
"But before I can send troops, I need to wait for a call from someone."
Bai Yingchang's expression turned serious, and he stopped asking questions. He understood who his father was referring to.
Besides Peng Jiasheng, the founder of the Kokang Self-Defense Army, who else in Kokang would make the Bai family wary?
"Dad, how about we send out a militia brigade to reinforce Nancheng first?"
“I’m afraid that Kun Sheng will strike first. If we’re too late, it will be a big problem if the casino and the White House are raided.”

"Received by the Third Regiment."
"Armored company, listen to my orders."
"Armored company here!"
"Issue your unit to deploy all tanks and attack Bailu Road from the west side of the city."
"We must take over half of Bailu Road before dawn."
"Understood! The armored company guarantees mission completion!"
"The other departments shall advance into the southern city, take over all defenses, and impose a curfew immediately."
"receive!"

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for the people of Laogai and even the entire Kokang region.
The conflict in Kokang has started again.
"Peng Jiasheng, you think I'll come looking for you just because you won't give me your phone number? Heh... I'll do the opposite of what you want."
