Lao Qin made a detailed plan for the training of the revolutionary army. He clearly knew that training soldiers was like giving birth to children. It was difficult to conceive in October, and it was even more difficult to train soldiers without education.
Lao Qin first trained the group of people he brought from the mainland. They were easy to train, and soon they were on their way. Then they all became the instructors of the revolutionary army. They trained the revolutionary army in the way of regular army. From the moment they stood at attention, they stood in line, looked to the right, and walked in columns, lines, and ranks. The instructors held a whip, and whipped the soldiers who did not do well or were afraid of hardship. They were not allowed to eat, sleep, and drill repeatedly in the sun
At the suggestion of Li Shun, Lao Qin brought the political work system of the army into the revolutionary army. Every company had instructors, every battalion had instructors, and every detachment had political commissars. He just didn''t know what party these people were from. They take the company as a unit, study the military regulations at night, report their ideological work, and the instructor makes a summary and instruction.
Discipline is the soul of the revolutionary army. Lao Qin stipulated that no one should be free and loose, no one should go to the stockade to soak up girls, no one should smoke or drink alcohol. All soldiers must be forbidden. Those who violate discipline should be shut down, and those who violate discipline should be whipped until they are shot. A soldier is a soldier, and he can''t go his own way.
After a few months, the free and loose Shan soldiers were frightened. When they heard the command, it was like a whip. The concept of military discipline was firmly fixed on their heads like a curse. So for the first time in the golden triangle, there were orderly Shan soldiers and earth shaking slogans. This is what no armed force in the golden triangle has achieved.
Another example is salute. In the past, the revolutionary army followed the example of the government army. They performed the British salute, with their legs raised high, their feet thumped, their arms raised high, and their palms turned outward, just like the exaggerated movements in western movies. Lao Qin was disgusted with this and changed it into a Chinese style military ceremony.
So for the first time, armed men with Chinese style military salute appeared in the golden triangle.
Due to the poverty and primitive nature of the golden triangle, most of the Shan soldiers are short and thin. Lao Qin introduced the equipment teaching method of the military academy into the revolutionary army. He sent people to make many horizontal bars, parallel bars, Trojan horses, balance beams and sandbags according to the samples, and personally demonstrated them to the soldiers to build up their physique.
He also built the first unprecedented basketball court in Shan state to teach people to play basketball and exercise. In the beginning, the clumsy Shan people were like ducks on the shelves. Many of them fell on the horizontal bars and parallel bars and became black and blue. But soon their small and thin body gave full play to their advantages. Many of them became as dexterous as monkeys and could do all kinds of amazing acrobatics on the equipment.
After a lot of military training, the soldiers were able to improve their physical fitness. In addition, they were able to improve their physical fitness.
Lao Qin took his team leader Wu to exercise, train and exercise day after day without any slackness. He was fulfilling his promise to train these Shan people who have not been out of the mountains for generations to become the best soldiers in the golden triangle.
"Soldiers are not born, ordinary people are still ordinary people in uniform, and real soldiers must go through war hardening." Li Shun said to me with emotion: "at present, under the training of Lao Qin, all the soldiers of our revolutionary army are masters of jungle warfare The recent battles are the best proof. "
After listening to Li Shun''s introduction, I couldn''t help showing more respect to Lao Qin.
It seems to me that Lao Qin is not only a man of loyalty, but also a man of faith.
As for his belief, I don''t know. I can''t think of it.
Within two days, intelligence came: the delivery team of the Kokang self defense force was finally out!
Sure enough, there were 60 mules and horses, and more than 100 armed men escorted them.
After discussion with Mr. Qin Lishun, I decided to hold still for the time being and send an investigation team to closely monitor the movement of this team.
At the same time, we decided that our fight to seize drugs and Lao Qin''s attack on the headquarters of the Kokang self defense forces should start at the same time, so that they would be at a loss and unable to take care of each other.
While closely monitoring the movement of this team, Kunming and Xinghai are also closely watching the movement of wood and his subordinates.
The intelligence that came that day was not optimistic. They actually took the East Lane.
This is out of our expectation.
"Are they really not afraid to die, to hit the muzzle?" Li Shun said to himself.
"Don''t worry, we''ll see," Lao Qin said calmly
Seeing Lao Qin''s calm manner, I felt a little at ease. Li Shun also felt a little at ease.
The drug trafficking horse gang of the Kokang self defense force seems to have no purpose and no sense of urgency. They are free to take things as they please. This kind of common people''s casual travel makes us conspirators very anxious. After waiting for two days in silence, the investigation team finally sent back intelligence, reporting that the caravan left the east bank, crossed the Mekong River and turned to the Western forest path.
That is to say, the prey is coming at last.After crossing the Mekong River and turning into the Western lane, under the close surveillance of the eyes hiding in the dark, the horse gang of the Kokang self defense force began to speed up the pace of driving. Every time the intelligence sent back by the reconnaissance unit made new progress.
These intelligence gradually sketched out such an extended marching route map in front of us: after escorting methamphetamine across the Mekong River, the armed men left the oxcart Road near Mengjing and went into the Nanban River Valley in the no man''s land, disappearing like a giant python in the sun blocking virgin forest. It is expected that they will appear from the Maka Valley in the West in three days, so that they can bypass the range of activities of the two powerful forces far away and avoid the ambush that may be set by the enemy.
It can be seen from this that their route of action has been carefully considered. Now it can be concluded that the place where they will be transported by water will be near a ferry to the east of the Maka River Valley. The boats have been parked there.
The reconnaissance unit always follows behind the caravan like a shadow, and the intelligence sent back more and more clearly shows that this is a drug smuggling team armed to the teeth. The soldiers are all resolute Chinese, who are known as "little Han people" in Shan state. They are highly vigilant. They hold their submachine guns in their hands at any time and shoot whenever the wind blows.
Their fighting sequence is: one team is on the way, the other team is on the back, and the large team of people and horses are in parallel with the drugs transported. The Scout saw through the periscope that there were more than a dozen light machine guns in front of the road, and the firepower configuration was equivalent to that of a regular army. They also found the legs of the heavy machine gun exposed under the tarpaulin covered piggyback
Later, the scout reported that a group of unknown bandits tried to seize methamphetamine, and dozens of people were killed on the spot. The officer ordered that the prisoner''s head be cut off and hung in a tree.
This heavily guarded drug smuggling army marches northward in a mighty manner, basically unstoppable, and gradually approaches the edge of the trap
It''s time for me to go.
It''s time for Lao Qin to start.
According to the prior agreement, we will fight at the same time.
Li Shun took charge of the General Dispatching in the headquarters.
It''s a dark night without stars and moon. The dark night conceals our plot. Lao Qin and I led our respective troops, carrying enough ammunition and necessary food and communication equipment, saying goodbye to Li Shun and quietly disappearing into the darkness of the Golden Triangle
Qin Xun and I will never leave a word for each other before we come.
In other words, for Li Shun, there is no need for Alai to live. It''s time to kill him.
Lao Qin and I understand what Li Shun means. If we want to keep the red storm secret, we can''t let Alai leave the Golden Triangle alive.
Since Li Shun ordered a Lai to be killed, Lao Qin and I naturally have no opinions. A Lai is a long time ago a damned man. He has lived a long time.
It took about three days for Lao Qin and I to reach the ambush site. For the sake of confidentiality, our plan was to march at night and hide in the daytime, that is, to ambush in the daytime and come out at night.
Soon after the departure that night, it began to rain heavily. The rainy season in the golden triangle is just like this, with continuous heavy rain.
In fact, the heavy rain is also good, which is an excellent cover for our actions.
Lao Qin and I disappeared in the primeval forest with our own people and horses in the rainstorm at night.
All my men and horses were wearing military raincoats, and all my weapons were hidden in raincoats. The No.100 men''s team was in good order. No one spoke, no one coughed, and no one left behind. It seemed that everyone was used to marching in such bad weather.
Naturally, this is inseparable from Lao Qin''s usual training.
I walked in the front with a team leader and talked in a low voice.
A team leader told me that before departure, Lao Qin quietly gave us the only two mortars of the revolutionary army. In addition, Lao Qin also selected four snipers from the special combat team. They also followed us and were equipped with night vision sniper rifles.
As soon as my heart warms up, I know that Lao Qin is not telling me what he means. He is afraid that I will refuse and that I will argue with him, so he makes these moves at will. He was worried that I would suffer when I ambushed.
What is revolutionary friendship condensed by war? I think that''s it.
While marching, he kept in touch with the base camp at any time, and Li Shun kept passing on the latest news.
"Everything''s going well with Lao Qin. He''s on the March."
"There is no new trend in Kunming for the time being The man is still in the hotel. "
"Things are the same over there."
"The prey is still following the expected route..."
In the primeval forest, the most reliable way of communication is the primitive and ancient radio station, where mobile phones have become waste, and satellite phones are still floating clouds for the time being.
According to the reconnaissance, the caravan transporting methamphetamine also used radio as a communication tool, and the long antenna behind the soldiers was the best proof.
During the night of March, the heavy rain did not stop. The road in the virgin forest was wet and muddy. After walking all night, everyone was very sleepy.
When it was almost dawn, the rain stopped. I asked everyone to stop, eat something and have a rest on the spot.We''re going to rest here for a day and then move on at night.
A team leader set up swimming sentries around, and then everyone ate against the big tree.
I closed my eyes and drank a few biscuits.
At this time, there is no hot food to eat or hot water to drink. In order to keep secret, no one is allowed to smoke or cough loudly.
