Chapter 430 I will blame everyone here (12)
July 26, conference room.
Representatives from the Myanmar Army, the People's Defense Forces, the Wa State, the Kokang Alliance Army, the Arakan Army, the Deang National Army and other forces gathered together. They sat at a long table and stared at each other.
The Wa representatives were relatively calm. Although they had occupied part of the territory of Eastern Shan State, the Myanmar Army had no time to bother with them at the moment. So, they were happy to sit back and watch the fight unfold.
"Why did you call us here, Pashan?"
"yes!"
The Arakan Army representative also expressed dissatisfaction: "It's already late. If you don't come soon, everyone will leave."
At this moment, the door of the conference room was opened.
Jiang Ningyue walked in wearing a suit, smiling and nodding at everyone.
Although Jiang Ningyue was incredibly beautiful, no one present dared to stare at her face.
Pashan was like a brown bear, following Jiang Ningyue in a suit, calmly scanning everyone present.
When everyone saw Jiang Ningyue come in, they stood up reluctantly.
"Your Excellency, the Consul General."
"Sorry for the long wait, everyone."
Jiang Ningyue came to the main seat. Pashan took two or three steps forward and helped Jiang Ningyue pull out the main seat. After Jiang Ningyue sat down, she looked at everyone with a smile and said, "I invited everyone here this time because I want to discuss the China-Myanmar Railway with you."
Everyone had different expressions.
Everyone present here is willing to build the China-Myanmar Railway, but how to build it and which forces should build it are big problems.
Everyone wants to start from their own territory, and everyone wants to deepen cooperation with China.
However, this is not realistic.
Whether from a legal or practical perspective, China can and can only cooperate with the Myanmar government.
However, the opening of the China-Myanmar Railway will undoubtedly greatly enhance Myanmar's economic strength, which is not a trivial matter for the remaining anti-government armed forces.
Although everyone agreed on the surface, they were all doing bad things in secret.
Therefore, the China-Myanmar Railway has not been successfully built for so many years.
Jiang Ningyue took the document from Shen Xuan and read, "The China-Myanmar Railway project has been brewing for a long time. As early as 2006, the project was reported in the media. In May 2011, China and Myanmar finally reached a memorandum. But now it is 2024, and the China-Myanmar Railway has still not been successfully built."
After saying that, Jiang Ningyue looked at everyone with a smile. Most people had blank expressions on their faces, as if this matter had nothing to do with them.
Jiang Ningyue continued unconcerned, "Now, the railway from Lashio to Kyaukpyu Port has been completed. Of the 810 kilometers of railway in Myanmar, only the 130 kilometers between Muse and Lashio remain unfinished. My goal is to complete these 130 kilometers during my term and ensure the complete opening of the China-Myanmar Railway."
Jiang Ningyue laughed as she spoke. "Everyone, rest assured. At least within Northern Shan State, the China-Myanmar Railway will not favor any one side. This railway can be used by the Myanmar government, the Arakan Army, the Ta'ang National Army, Wa State, and everyone here."
After hearing Jiang Ningyue's words, everyone smiled. The Burmese army representatives were somewhat reluctant, but... they endured it.
Jiang Ningyue continued, "Even if you don't trust the Burmese government, Lieutenant General Pashan of the Northern Shan Army is here, and he can provide protection."
Pashan nodded quickly and said, "Your Excellency the Consul General can fully represent the Northern Shan Army."
Everyone was in deep thought after hearing this.
If I could also use this railway, it would definitely deepen my cooperation with China.
Of course, there are also many disadvantages, namely that the strength of the Myanmar army will also increase significantly.
Jiang Ningyue didn't wait for anyone to speak before continuing, "So, gentlemen, can you please allow us to successfully complete the construction of this railway? Which faction has objections? Which faction doesn't want this railway to be built?"
The Wa State representative slowly spoke, "Your Excellency the Consul General, our Wa State has always maintained a good cooperative relationship with your country. We are very willing to deepen our cooperation with your country, but can the railway pass through our Wa State?"
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "The railway route has been determined. The Muse to Lashio line will not change. However, everyone here can rest assured that this route is not set in stone. With the opening of the China-Myanmar Railway in the future, more and more lines will surely be added. For example, we are now planning to add a line from Wanhai in northern Shan State."
When Pashan heard this, he raised his big head proudly.
Everyone present fell into deep thought.
Jiang Ningyue continued to ask, "Then, let me ask again, is there any force that has objections and doesn't want us to build the China-Myanmar Railway?"
Everyone was silent again.
Are you kidding? Who would be so stupid as to say such a thing at this time? Even if Dongda doesn't retaliate, they can't afford the retaliation from Northern Shan State!
Jiang Ningyue waited for nearly a minute, but still no one spoke.
Glancing around, Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "Since no one has spoken, then I represent that all parties have recognized and agreed. I believe that the construction of the China-Myanmar Railway will definitely change the lives of the Burmese people and will definitely help Myanmar become prosperous."
"but!"
At this point, Jiang Ningyue's expression suddenly grew serious, and her tone suddenly became a bit more stern. "Since everyone has agreed, then everyone and every force must respect this most basic agreement! During the construction of the China-Myanmar Railway, no one and no force is allowed to attack the China-Myanmar Railway project, or the China-Myanmar Railway workers or other company employees."
"If the construction of the China-Myanmar Railway is halted due to war, if any Chinese workers are injured or even die during the construction of the China-Myanmar Railway due to war. Even if they die of fright, burn to death in a forest fire, or accidentally fall to their death..."
Jiang Ningyue calmly glanced at everyone at the negotiation table, "I will blame everyone here!"
After saying this, Jiang Ningyue waved slightly, and Shen Xuan hurriedly helped to pull the chair. Jiang Ningyue stood up and walked towards the door calmly.
"Excuse me."
Everyone present felt an inexplicable fear, and this time, it was serious.
If they dare to attack the China-Myanmar Railway again, they will be met with thunderous revenge.
After Jiang Ningyue left, Chen Xuan and Zhao Jing looked at Jiang Ningyue excitedly, with hearts in their eyes.
"Leader, your words are so cool."
"Yes!" Zhao Jing nodded repeatedly. "You didn't see the expressions on those people's faces. They were all terrified."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "That's because we have a powerful motherland behind us, and it's because the Northern Shan Army has frightened them. Otherwise, no one would take my words seriously. As I said before, if you can't get it on the battlefield, you can't get it at the negotiation table."
After Jiang Ningyue left, the representatives at the scene also left one after another.
Some of these battle-hardened soldiers even took several minutes to stand up, for fear of revealing their true colors in front of their mortal enemies.
After leaving the scene, they immediately called their commander to report the situation.
The general trend of the world is unstoppable. Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish.
Any force that tries to stop the chariot will only bring about its own destruction!
