Chapter 911: Punching bag

In just three days, a detailed report was put on the desk of President Wu Nai Wen.
He read the report carefully, and then pushed it to Su Maung and Wu Essowen: "Look at it too, especially you, Minister Essowan."
He spoke in a weird tone, and it was obviously unusual to use the term "Mr. Minister" for his son-in-law. It made Essowin Wu's heart stunned and subconsciously thought that there was something unfavorable to him in this report. .
Sure enough, before he finished reading the report, his face had turned pale.
"No, it's not true!" He yelled, turning to Wu Qin Niu and said: "Kin Niu, you are setting up me!"
"Sorry, Minister, I just issued this report based on my investigation results, and based on the information I have so far, more than one witness confirmed that "there is a large gold mine in Taunggyi Inle Lake area". Director Tai Ang said it on a semi-public occasion, but based on this evidence alone, he can only draw conclusions that he may be related to the matter, and he is not even sure whether he was the first to say this. What happened, Estovan actually said that I was framing you, was it too anxious?"
"Then where is Director Tai Tai Ang now?" Admiral Su Meng, who also read the report, asked blankly.
"I can only find out that he disappeared three days ago, on the first day of my investigation."
"That Taitaiang must be yours, the person you deliberately inserted in my department!" Wu Essowin shouted in a sharp voice: "You have been monitoring me! President, Khin Nyunt is absolutely doing this. Unpredictable!"
"My Excellency Minister Esso Win, do you need me to remind you of the director of Taitai Ang's experience? If I remember correctly, he should be the one you pulled up with one hand?"
"That's because you bought or intimidated him..."
"Okay, Estovan, do you still feel that you don't lose your face enough?" Wu Naiwen, who really couldn't listen, was finally born and stopped the son-in-law's savage entanglement. He yelled: "You should go back and discipline your men. Some of them are really making trouble."
Being scolded by his old husband in person, Wu Estowen blushed immediately. He opened his mouth to explain something, but Wu Naiwen's stern eyes glared back.
In fact, he knew in his heart that this was already the father-in-law had left him a step on the face of his daughter. Wu Naiwen's seemingly harsh rebuke was hinting at him that this matter ends here, and he is not going to pursue it.
It was also reminding him that his gang was so greedy and angry that it was time to stop.
"The source of the news has been found, but Wu Qin Niu, you haven't told us whether there are any large gold mines there." Perhaps to save some face for the son-in-law, President Wu Naiwen changed the subject.
"I'm sorry, your Excellency, I am afraid I cannot give an accurate conclusion on this matter." Wu Qin Niu replied in a deep voice: "The area east of Taunggyi Inle Lake has not much time in our hands. A general survey of geology and mineral resources has been conducted there, and the last time the Huaxia Mineral Exploration Team has not visited the area. The existing information is from the British occupation period. They have conducted basic exploration there."
"Have the Britons found anything?" Su Maung asked with interest. Obviously, he was more concerned about this than the struggle between Wu Qin Niu and Wu Essowen.
"I have a copy of this report here. The original document is kept in the National Archives and can be consulted at any time. Please read it, Your Excellency, Mr. Admiral."
Wu Qin Niu handed over a report and explained: "According to this report, the British had conducted a geological survey of the Taunggyi Inle Lake area in the early 1940s. They found that the Posei area on the east bank of the Rhine Lake The geological conditions are very likely to have large-scale ore veins. They also obtained some ore samples, but because of the invasion of the Japanese Kingdom, they had to evacuate without obtaining a result. They were unable to conduct further investigations, so we could not find from this information. Any useful information about the types, reserves or abundance of minerals in the area."
"That said, there is no evidence to prove that there are indeed gold mines, right?"
"I'm afraid it is, Mr. President, I have consulted a professor of geology and mineralogy at Yangon University, and he told me that if you want to get exact results, you must conduct on-site exploration."
"In other words, we must take that area?" Su Maung asked.
"Yes, Mr. Admiral, if we want to prove the authenticity of this rumor, we must do that."
Admiral Su Maung nodded and turned his attention to Wu Naiwen.
He did not speak, but Wu Naiwen already understood what he meant.
For him, Admiral Su Maung's opinion is very important.
When Yang Shan and Wu Naiwen co-founded the Burmese army, Su Maung was only a young platoon leader, but today, 40 years later, as the old man fades or gradually retreats, Su Maung has become an exemption from that generation. The only remaining figure besides him.
Unlike Wu Naiwen, who resigned from the military in 1972, Su Maung has never taken off his military uniform and has been promoted step by step with the increase of his age and seniority. In the past 40 years, his promotion and appointment have been all over the various departments of the Burmese army. Many hold important positions.
Su Maung’s political stance is relatively mild, he rarely actively fights with others, and never gets involved in the struggle of various forces. His character and way of dealing with others has won him universal respect, no matter if it is Young hawks like Than Shwe or someone with a deep intention like Wu Qin Niu are willing to have a good relationship with them, which also makes him the best person to balance and coordinate the forces of the government, especially the military factions.
That's why he was able to secure the position of Secretary of Defense for many years.
Although the scary position of "Secretary of Defense" that sounds powerful, it is generally a vacant position in various countries. There is not much actual military power. Most of them are in charge of logistics. For example, our Highness Sheikh is a living. example……
However, this can also fully explain Su Maung's qualifications, prestige and influence.
Today, Su Maung’s opinions are obviously biased, which means that he feels a lot of pressure, so that he has to do something to ease it.
Wu Naiwen certainly understands the reason.
In the last war, the Burmese Jade Army lost, and the defeat was ugly.
Although it was initiated by Than Shwe without formal authorization, and only used a part of the forces of the Central Military Region of the Burmese Army, but if you lose, you lose, and it loses the face of the Burmese army.
It will inevitably make the military, especially the hawks represented by Than Shwe, angry.
In order to maintain political stability, this sentiment must be vented, and the military urgently needs a victory to prove itself and boost morale.
Since the armistice agreement has been signed with Bao Qixia, Peng Jiasheng, and Du Zaibu under the supervision and witness of the United Nations, it is obviously inappropriate to tear it up without an excuse. This grievance can only be taken by others.
So now, isn't Kunsa, who has played the banner of the "Shan State Republic", is engaged in drug trafficking and may occupy the site of a gold mine, is the best punching bag?
