The Kokang Allied Army once again took control of Lao Cai, and the next step was to go straight to the target of Lashio!
With the recapture of Lao Cai, the Kokang Allied forces once again became the rulers of Lao Cai. After 8 years of twists and turns and unremitting efforts, we now have the opportunity to turn over. In just two months since the launch of the "Crackdown on Wire Fraud" operation on 27 October, the Kokang Allied Forces have managed to return to their homeland.
After returning to Lao Cai, the Kokang Alliance did not have the slightest intention of slacking off, after all, it was a territory that was recaptured with all its might, and it must be managed cautiously. First of all, they actively cooperated with the work of the Chinese side and worked hard to arrest the wire fraud personnel who were still stranded in Lao Cai, but unfortunately, most of them were only the backbone and low-level salesmen of some wire fraud groups. As for Bai Suocheng, the leader of the wire fraud on the wanted notice of the Chinese side, and others, their whereabouts are still unknown. After Min Aung Hlaing's retaliatory air strikes and shelling, Lao Cai is already in shambles. The Allied forces also strengthened law and order and anti-narcotics management, so that the dilapidated and chaotic old street gradually returned to normal order. This series of actions also won the Allied forces more support from the Kokang people.
In addition, they issued an eviction order and arranged vehicles for the Burmese in Lao Cai in order to send them away from Lao Cai. It was precisely because of the betrayal of the four major families and the blow of the Burmese army that the Kokang Alliance Army was forced to leave Lao Cai, and the escape process was very bleak. Now, the situation of the Burmese is much better, and Oriental trucks are sending them to the areas under the jurisdiction of the Myanmar Army.
However, reasonable people understand that the Kokang Alliance's eyes are not limited to Lao Cai. Recently, the Tatmadaw held a second round of peace talks with the Kokang Allied Army, the Ta'ang Army and the Rakhan Army, focusing on issues such as a ceasefire and land division. The first negotiations failed, mainly because Min Aung Hlaing was clever enough to take advantage of the ceasefire negotiations to redeploy troops, only to suffer a heavy blow. In desperation, the Tatmadaw seems to want to seek reconciliation through a second negotiation.
However, the Tatmadaw was unable to offer the terms that the allies wanted, making it possible for the second round of negotiations to fail. The Burmese army even exchanged places such as Nansang, Brown, and Mantong for places such as Mujie, Baseball Race, and Rolling, which can be said to have taken the allies as fools. Sister Mu, as a port that occupies nearly 80% of the amount of China and Myanmar, can be returned to the other party so easilyIt's just fat of fat, and it's over after two sentences?
At present, the Allied forces have the upper hand and are constantly recruiting troops into the newly occupied areas of northern Burma. The number of troops has increased from 10,000 to 17-1.80,000, the momentum is booming. In such a situation, it is inevitable to create greater turmoil, and the time is imminent to rush to Lashio with all its might. Once Lashio is captured, it is equivalent to firmly grasping the Northern Shan State, and Lashio can raise another 60,000 or 70,000 troops. At that time, who would dare to say that the Confederates lacked troops and generals?
However, Min Aung Hlaing's situation was very different, with all sides of the armed forces being mobilized and he himself losing one after another on the battlefield. The Kachin Army has already begun to move, carrying American-style equipment.
Fourth, the first. The 6th and 10th Brigades had already crossed Nankan and advanced towards Mujie, demonstrating their posture of providing support to the Allied forces. Aung San Suu Kyi's People's Army was equally aggressive, and it had reached some sort of agreement with the Kachin Army. The Allied Forces sought autonomy, the Kachin Army pursued independence, and the KPA had a more direct goal of overthrowing the Army.
Faced with such a chaotic situation, Min Aung Hlaing can only linger between peace talks and troop transfers. The first peace talks seemed too clever, and now they have no choice but to turn to the second peace talks. The growing strength of the Allies, coupled with the limited trust in Min Aung Hlaing, will not be easy to cease if they do not get the conditions they want. After all, they have already recaptured the territory with their own hands, so why should they be subject to Min Aung Hlaing's wishes?
The main theme of the war in northern Myanmar has long since ceased to be the crackdown on wire fraud, and all parties have joined in, and the motives of all parties are not good.
