It’s the season when the northern country is frozen for thousands of miles, but the land in southern Yunnan is full of green and lush.
As dusk approached, an endless sheet of dark gray clouds slowly moved northward, quickly covering up the brilliant sunset. The sky and earth suddenly dimmed, and a thick curtain of night shrouded the earth in the blink of an eye.
Not long after, a strong wind blew, and the forests of the Mokong Mountains on the border between China and Myanmar were swaying. A burst of heavy raindrops knocked the trees all over the mountain loudly.
After a few minutes of heavy rain, it turned into a heavy drizzle, and the temperature suddenly dropped a lot. Only the sound of wind over the mountains and the sound of dripping raindrops filled the space between heaven and earth.
At the foot of Mangsangling Mountain at the western foothills of the Mokong Mountains, a small wooden building hidden among the trees sheds a few rays of dim light.
In the space where the animals were originally placed on the ground floor of the wooden building, there were dozens of men wearing Kawa clothing and trousers with black headscarves wrapped around their heads.
The steel gun reflected wisps of cold light.
A lantern hung high on the beam in the middle of the hall upstairs, swaying slightly in the wind.
Under the lantern, four tough Kawa men from Kongwu stood almost head to head, staring at the map on the small square table, discussing nervously.
A sudden rain at night disrupted the upcoming raid plan of the Kawa Nationality Self-Defense Force commando team. Kunshan, the eldest son of the leader of Banlao Dazhai and the leader of the commando team, was very worried. This was the time when young people from the three surrounding counties jointly formed a self-defense force.
The first counterattack since
If the operation is messed up, it will not only affect the reputation of Kunshan itself and Banlao Dazhai, but also affect the confidence of the folks in Cangyuan, Gengma, and Shuangjiang counties to fight against the British and Burmese troops. They are known as the Kawa tribe.
Kunshan, the number one warrior, really couldn't afford to lose this man.
"Old Wei, will the explosives fail to explode if they get caught in the rain?" 33-year-old Kunshan looked at Wei Changhui, deputy captain of the Special Brigade of the Southern Yunnan Guard Force.
Wei Changhui rolled his eyes at Kunshan: "Didn't the instructor of the blasting team demonstrate it a few days ago? The explosive pack made by our An Jiajun can be immersed in water without any problem. We used this to explode two years ago.
There were so many boats in Little Japan that they were so scared that they never dared to enter the Yangtze River estuary again."
"Hehe! I'm just impatient..." Kunshan smiled sheepishly.
Wei Changhui was wearing a Kawa costume. Like the brothers in the eight-person instructor team, he was very unaccustomed. After answering Kunshan's words, Wei Changhui tightened the waistband of his pants tied with a cotton rope again. His unshaven face was full of helplessness.
He was so sexy that he immediately amused the brothers next to him.
One and a half months ago, Wei Changhui was ordered to lead a team of eight instructors to Panlao to serve as the chief instructor of the Kawa Nationality Self-Defense Army Commando Team.
I don't know whether the garrison commander Dai Zhengliang, intentionally or unintentionally, secretly revealed to several Kawa tribe leaders Wei Changhui's deed of cutting off the head of a British officer. Wei Changhui immediately became the object of admiration among the Kawa tribe who admire heroes. In addition, during the dozens of days he served as an instructor
time, no matter
Whether it's fighting or drinking, the young men of the Kawa tribe can't beat Wei Changhui, who doesn't talk much. After Wei Changhui taught the commando several extremely sophisticated and practical team tactics, he became an outstanding figure admired by the young men of the Kawa tribe. Now all
Everyone respects Wei Changhui very much.
Kunshan's assistant was none other than Kunda, the number one warrior in Menglian's Xia Pawa Dazhai. Thanks to the good relationship between Xia Pawa Dazhai and the Anjia Army, Kunda had been working with more than a hundred people since the beginning of October last year.
Brothers from various villages in Menglian entered the training team of the garrison headquarters. At the end of the year, the Kawa people could not stand up to the British and Burmese troops.
After being humiliated and plundered by the troops, the three-county self-defense army was formed. Kunda and more than a hundred of his brothers were naturally transferred into the national army. The upper-level leaders of the self-defense army were all Kawa village leaders, and only those who led the team
It is the later generation of generals like Kunshan and Kunda who truly lead the charge.
Wei Changhui is an iron man with a clear grievance. In his eyes, there is nothing to worry about in the world. As long as he can achieve the purpose, it is the best way and results. Many times, he ignores any national customs, let alone the weather.
The sudden change and hesitation. On the contrary, he believes that it is even more favorable to launch on the rainy night. Even the Cava people who live in the world have so many concerns. I believe that the British -Burma army guarding the mining area and border road levels.
Will complain.
Another favorable factor is that although the British and Myanmar Allied Forces have not organized a large -scale mining of silver mine in the recent period, the Kava people's initiative has made the British -Burma Alliance forces paralyzed.
The revenge of the An family and the Kava people, for the sake of their own life, can maintain a high degree of vigilance, but for a long time for a long time, it's peaceful, and slowly make people paralyzed
In the evening, it is difficult to walk, let alone launching large -scale military operations. Therefore, it is estimated that the British and Myanmar Army even saved the posts that should be served on weekdays.
The rain in southern Yunnan has always come quickly, but it is difficult to encounter the next night like tonight, it is enough to make life slack.
"Kunshan, can your brother go at night when it rains?" Wei Changhui asked as usual.
Kunshan suddenly looked at each other: "What do you say, what do you say? Looking down on our Cava people?"
Wei Changhui shook his head calmly: "It is not possible to see anyone's problem, but whether your actions will cause inconvenience to move the time or even seriously affect the combat effectiveness due to this heavy rain. There is a company in the entire mining area.
In a level, fifty people need to deal with one hundred and eighty people. Although it is an unexpected attack, we must first think of the difficulties in front of the front, do you understand? "
Kunshan's face looks much better, and he answered certainly: "Although the Cava people rarely travel in rainy days, they are all the warriors selected from each village here today.
We guarantee that it will not affect the smooth progress of the action. "
Wei Changhui nodded: "Okay, in this case, then I arranged the task. Kunda ..."
"arrive!"
Kunda already has the habit of a soldier.
Wei Changhui pointed at the map and instructed it in a low voice. Kunda nodded again and again that there was no problem. Next, Wei Changhui arranged a task for Kunshan. Kunshan was quickly accepted, but finally asked what the captives would do?
Wei Changhui suddenly looked at Kunshan in surprise, and asked Kunshan for a while: When did the Cava leave the captives?
Kunshan smiled intently and turned around. Wei Changhui sat down and pulled out the gelatin shoes from his waist.
The place where the warrior warriors are, no matter how cold it is, the Cava people over the mountains with a pair of barefoots like flying, and Wei Changhui can't do it anymore.
At the time of Ziye, the two strenuous explosions rang from the small river of the border. Two simple wooden bridges, together with a dozen Burmese troops, died in smoke in smoke, followed by the depths of the mining area.
Breaking the sky covered by the rainy night.
On February 22, 1934, the morning of the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, we set up camp in Nanchang.
As soon as Chiang Kai-shek got up, he received a letter of protest from the British from Nanjing. He was shocked and immediately ordered his attendants to summon An Yi. More than a dozen British officers and more than a hundred Burmese soldiers who were guarding the furnace mining area were arrested.
The ruthless massacre, the news that two small bridges and all the mines were blown up is definitely not a trivial matter. Chiang Kai-shek's first thought was that it was done by An Jiajun. Only An Jiajun would think of such a damaging move that "everyone will not live up to the Chinese New Year"
.
However, when Deng Wenyi rushed to An Yi's private room on the sixth floor of Jiangnan Hotel, no one was there. She asked a few guards who were left behind, but they didn't know where An Yi had gone. While Deng Wenyi was anxious, the door of Zhu Peide's room opened.
Zhu Peide, who was out for a walk in a long gown, saw Deng Wenyi and was stunned for a moment, then asked Deng Wenyi what was important?
Deng Wenyi smiled bitterly and said that the chairman of the committee had invited him, but he couldn't find anyone from An Yi, and he didn't know where the boy had gone so early.
Zhu Peide laughed: "You have asked the right person about this. The commanders and commanders who led the various anti-bandit armies gathered at the camp last night to report their work to the chairman of the committee and also attended today's meeting. Jiang Mingsan, Chen Cixiu, and Gu Mosan
After meeting with the chairman of the committee, several people came to see An Yi without saying a word.
He took me to the Jiangnan Nightclub, and I guess he got drunk there." At this point, Zhu Peide was very surprised: "By the way, what happened? The Chairman had a rest very late last night when he met various military and political officials.
I was in a hurry to find An Yi early in the morning, something important must have happened."
Deng Wenyi smiled bitterly and said: "There was a big explosion in the Lufang mining area in southern Yunnan last night. Many British officers and Burmese officers and soldiers died. The British government sent a serious protest. The chairman of the committee is waiting for An Yi to explain."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Peide's face became extremely serious: "It should not have been done by An Yi or his subordinates. I just discussed the situation in Yunnan and Myanmar with him yesterday. He said that he would comply with the commission's requirements and not act rashly. For this reason, I even had a quarrel with him.
It's very stiff. If An Yi had taken action, the British would not have died just this little."
When Deng Wenyi heard this, he realized that it was really the case, but he did not dare to make up his mind for the Chairman. He smiled and said goodbye to Zhu Peide, and then rushed to Jiangnan Nightclub.
At the door of the nightclub, Deng Wenyi happened to meet An Yi, Jiang Dingwen and others who were staggering out of the nightclub. Deng Wenyi hurriedly greeted them. After greeting everyone, she conveyed Chiang Kai-shek's order and at the same time whispered the southern Yunnan Lufang Mining Area.
The explosion and the chairman's suspicions were briefly explained to An Yi.
An Yi was very surprised: "My brother Mingsan and I were so drunk last night, how can we have the time and energy to direct such a small explosion? I guess it was the revenge of the Kawa tribe... I will rush now
I went back to the hotel and it was hard to see the committee members in this state. I was disheveled and smelled of alcohol. I probably made the committee members angry before I even spoke. Now the central government is vigorously promoting the "New Life Movement", and I don't want to
Being held up as a bad example."
Deng Wenyi nodded and said she would go back to report to Chiang Kai-shek and say a few good words, and then said goodbye to Jiang Dingwen and Chen Cheng with a smile.
