Northern Myanmar: Bloodshed in the Golden Triangle, Have I Become a General? - Chapter 38

Chapter 38: General Furuo’s Shock and Fear – How Could He Dare to Set Fire to the Mountain?

Furuo couldn’t believe it.

Zhao Renzhou, this guy,

Could be so ruthless.

Those supplies could produce millions in profits.

And they were just two months away from being ready.

Yet he decided to burn them all.

Didn’t he have any intention to negotiate?

Furuo had intended to capture several villages to use as bargaining chips. But now, he had lost everything and so many of his people had died for nothing.

Suddenly, Furuo realized something. He immediately took out his phone and dialed frantically. He ordered his men to block the roads. They had to stop Zhao Renzhou’s convoy at all costs.

At this moment, Furuo also figured it out. These guys. After burning everything, they retreated. They had no desire for prolonged combat.

Their next destination must be the other villages!

“Damn it!” Furuo’s face was constantly changing. He had seen through his binoculars the formidable firepower that Zhao Hu had brought with him. He could see it clearly.

Even his own team, which he personally led, had been badly beaten. Not to mention the other villages. So he had to ask his subordinates to block the roads and hinder them.

Furuo suppressed his anger and picked up his phone again. These few people would definitely not be able to handle it.

He had to send reinforcements. Today, he must crush these people in the mountains. Otherwise, where would he put his face?! Where would the face of the Shan Armed Group go?!

When the call was answered, Furuo immediately said without thinking, “Send some people over.” “Gather all those who have nothing to do right now.” “Bring everyone.” “I want blood today….”

Boom! A thunderous sound came from the other end of the phone! Furuo suddenly widened his eyes. A mortar?! “What’s going on?!”

“Speak!”

The voice on the other end sounded somewhat panicked:

“General!”

“Cough… cough…”

“It seems like someone… cough… broke in!”

“We don’t know who fired the mortar!”

Furuo couldn’t help but angrily shout, “Nonsense!”

“I can’t tell that something’s wrong?!”

“What’s the situation on your end?!”

“Who fired the mortar?!”

“Do you know?!”

Amid the chaotic noises from the other side, intermittent voices came through:

“We don’t know… cough… General!”

“We… cough… were busy trying to put out the fire!”

“Someone set the mountain on fire!”

“The whole area is engulfed in flames!”

Furuo felt a sudden chill throughout his body:

“What?!”,Zhao! ,Ren!

Zhou!

These three words echoed in Furuo’s mind. He, who had roamed northern Myanmar for half his life, felt a hint of an emotion called fear for the first time.

This Zhao Renzhou…

He’s not afraid?!

He’s not afraid of Myanmar’s laws?!

He’s not afraid of the whole world pointing fingers at him?!

How dare he set fire to the mountain!

How could he dare?!

It’s incomprehensible…

Utterly incomprehensible…

Setting fire to the mountain!

Four simple words,

But it’s the most effective way to deal with the Shan Armed Group.

Yet no one dared to do it…

The Myanmar government army has been entangled with Shan Armed Group members in Kachin State for decades,

And they didn’t have the audacity to set the mountain on fire.

They didn’t dare…

Really didn’t dare…

No government could withstand the pressure,

Setting fire to the mountain, even if it was ostensibly to eradicate their own people.

The Myanmar government didn’t dare.

And those drug lords in the borderlands,

Even someone like Minden didn’t dare…

Minden’s business is so big,

How could he possibly provoke the Shan Armed Group?

He could just take a detour.

As for the drug lords in the borderlands,

Either they bow down like Xiong Wang, or they guard their own little piece of land.

They didn’t dare to engage in a life-and-death battle with the Shan Armed Group.

But then, there was Zhao Renzhou, such an anomaly,

Who completely tore up the rulebook.

Setting fire to the mountain, if it got reported, Zhao Renzhou would undoubtedly be cursed by countless people.

But…

Zhao Renzhou could handle the cursing.

But those trees burned in the fire could never be brought back.

He was a guy who didn’t care about his own life.

Furuo was genuinely scared now.

The Shan Armed Group relied on the forests and mountains.

If the forests and mountains in Kachin State were all burned down, it would be barren.

What would they use for guerrilla warfare?

And it had taken less than an hour since the Kachin-speaking man had threatened Zhao Renzhou.

In less than half an hour, their own territory had been set on fire.

This guy…

Did he hang up the phone and immediately start mobilizing his troops?

Did he not consider the consequences?

Furuo’s entire body turned red, and his eyes occasionally flashed with a fierce and ruthless look.

But he quickly hesitated and recoiled.

The veins on his hand were throbbing, and he was panting heavily.

Furuo’s heart was filled with anger and regret, pondering the gains and losses…

Finally, he took a deep breath, suppressing his rage. He ordered his subordinates beside him, saying, “Call everyone back.” “Go back to put out the fire….”

The last four words, Furuo almost gritted his teeth to say them.

He had to go back and assess the situation first. The main camp couldn’t afford any accidents.

But…

This! Isn’t! Over!

It’s just the beginning!

Zhao Renzhou!

Wait for me!
