Chapter 1049: Rangoon Brawl (4)

Now that a compromise has been reached in Yangon and the right is temporarily handed over to Wu Shenglun, he will send troops to attack Daben anyway. In the TV speech just now, he has made his own banner clear, then, he It is necessary to use actual actions to prove that he really wants to rescue the old President U Nai Win and strangle the "rebel" stationed here, otherwise he cannot explain to the public opinion and other forces in Yangon.
Even if this actual action is just bluffing.
By the way, bravado!
Wu Shenglun, he is probably just bluffing!
Going back to the core of the question, since Wu Shenglun also has ambitions, why did he save Wu Naiwen and go back? From his standpoint, it is best for the old president to never go back, right?
In that way, it is possible for him to secure the position of interim president and use this chaotic period to bargain with various factions as much as possible to reach a final compromise, so that the word "temporary" can be removed!
Therefore, when Wu Naiwen was still alive in his own hands, Wu Shenglun would never attack him with all his strength. This was not in his interest!
So, how can I take advantage of this favorable condition?
The plan to raid Yangon City is already bankrupt. You and these 10,000 elite subordinates are now in deep danger. With this little equipment in your hand, the best result is to fight with Wu Shenglun and lose both. It is inevitable that you will be hurt by that. Several military districts took advantage of the vacancy, so now is definitely not a good time for a showdown with them, so the most urgent thing is to get out of this situation first, as for the future, you can wait until you return to the nest safely.
Thinking of this, he has made a decision.
He ordered one of the communications assistants: "Connect me to Wu Shenglun and say that I want to talk to him alone."
"General, at this time, will Wu Shenglun negotiate with us? We might as well go into the city of Yangon as soon as possible!"
An officer said unconvincedly.
"Get in? What to use to get in? Can you fight with their tanks with the bodies of your brothers? Can you fight? Even if you fight, how many people will we have left?"
Than Shwe taught the young officer badly, and at this time, he missed the Chief of Staff Esso far away in Mei Tierra. If he was by his side, he would surely be able to share a huge amount for himself at this time. Pressure, rather than just shouting slogans to fight and kill.
He shook his head, got rid of this unrealistic idea, walked out of the war room to the communication room, and after signaling everyone to go out, he picked up the microphone.
"Admiral Wu Shenglun, hello, this is Than Shwe, yes, I need 72 hours of evacuation time...No, no, you will definitely give it to me, because if you don’t give it to me, I will immediately release President Wu Naiwen and His guard and returned all the weapons to them. I think, your Excellency the President will definitely be willing to accept my kindness..."
...
"I order, retreat immediately!"
Than Rui glanced at the Daben base where he had only stayed for less than 24 hours, and gave the order blankly. In the command room, everyone acted silently, and no one raised any more questions.
After the initial enthusiasm, these young officers finally realized that at this moment, it is not the time when they act with enthusiasm, so that they can only lead the situation to the worst result, and their sacrifice will be meaningless. , They are more likely to be charged with treason.
Fortunately, their leader is General Than Shwe. He is wise, courageous and long-sighted, and has made the most correct decision. He has also won the precious 72 hours for his lone army. What they have to do now is Immediately act, get out of the dangerous place as soon as possible, go north to meet the people led by Chief of Staff Asso, as long as they can survive until that time, they will be safe.
When everyone was mobilized and began to organize the evacuation, Than Shwe once again walked into the cabin where the old president was being held.
He saw Wu Naiwen standing in front of the window with his hands folded, looking at the chaotic team downstairs in a daze, so he whispered: "Mr. President."
Wu Naiwen obviously heard his voice, but he didn't turn his head, but asked faintly: "Dan Rui, are you here to send me the last ride?"
A thought suddenly flashed in Than Shwe's mind that even he thought was absurd-would what he did now look like a clown in the eyes of the old president?
He shook his head, quickly drove the thought out of his mind, and replied in a deep voice, "No, Mr. President, I'm just here to tell you that we are about to leave."
Wu Naiwen still did not look back, but Dan Rui saw him and he nodded slightly. Then, he heard the old president’s calm voice: "Then, since it’s not here to see me for the last time, then he must invite me to Man. Dele is a guest, right?"
At this moment, the image of the clown suddenly flashed in Dan Rui's heart...
"Mr. President, how did you know?" he asked involuntarily.
Wu Naiwen finally turned around, stared at him for a long while, and suddenly smiled: "Dan Rui, have you forgotten? I used to be a soldier. Are these people downstairs preparing to attack or retreat? Wouldn't I see it? And if you want to retreat, where else can you go except Mandalay?"
The old president’s words were like a heavy hammer hitting Than Shwe’s chest. He suddenly realized that he had made a terrible mistake-when he regarded the old president as the one who would only hide in the dark office. Behind the big desk, when a stale politician who must weigh up interests, exchanges, and compromises, he completely forgot that Wu Naiwen was the founder of the Burmese army and the new Burmese army who once led the new army. The "Mindi Wu" coalition forces that were extremely powerful and encircled Yangon fought back to the ruthless people in the deep mountains and old forests!
All the Burmese jade soldiers, including him, grew up listening to the heroic story of the harmless old man in front of him. In the eyes of this old man, he and his men are probably just The baby who hasn't grown up yet!
Dan Rui's underwear was suddenly drenched with cold sweat.
