A brutal civil war is raging in northern Myanmar, and the Kokang Allied Army continues to make progress, and the Tatmadaw is suffering a heavy loss. Min Aung Hlaing, however, alluded to the involvement of foreign experts in directing the Kokang Allied Army's fighting and the bombing of the Tatmadaw with drones. This article will look at the latest changes in the war situation in northern Myanmar, as well as the reasons for the Tatmadaw army mentioned in the article and Min Aung Hlaing's accusations, in order to better understand the dynamics of the conflict in northern Myanmar.

The war situation in northern Burma is moving in favor of the Kokang Allied forces. They have conquered 186 Burmese army strongholds, recaptured a number of towns and border crossings, and further encircled the two important areas of Mujie and Lao Cai. The Kokang Alliance's operational objective was to gradually devour the Burmese army's outlying strongholds, cut off the Burmese army's land access to Mujie and Lao Cai, and eventually take control of these two areas.

In the operation of the Kokang Allied Army, they not only captured the stronghold of the Burmese army, but also captured a large amount of ** equipment. One of the most striking was a World War II-era MG42 general-purpose machine gun produced in Germany. Compared to the rusty MG42 that was previously captured, the machine gun was in much better condition, showing an improvement in the tactical skills of the Kokang Allied forces. It can be expected that they will continue to use these loot to support their own battles.

In response to the Tatmadaw of the Tatmadaw of the Tatmadaw **, Min Aung Hlaing mentioned for the first time that there were so-called "foreign experts" who guided the Kokang Allied forces in the fight and directly carried out drone bombing. While Min Aung Hlaing did not provide the specific identities of the foreign experts, the move raised some associations that led to doubts about China's involvement in the conflict in northern Myanmar. However, according to the facts, China has always adhered to the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries, and only hopes that the civil war in Myanmar will end at an early date and ensure the security of the China-Myanmar border. Therefore, Min Aung Hlaing's "foreign experts" have no connection with the Chinese side.

On the battlefield in northern Burma, the Kokang Allied Forces frequently used drones to bomb the Burmese army. However, these drones are not advanced**, they are just dozens of grenades mounted on pesticide spraying drones for bombing, which is not uncommon. The reason why the Kokang Alliance is proficient in the use of drones is because of the improvement of their combat literacy. On the contrary, the Burmese army has long been negligent in training and lacks common sense in field air defense, and except for a small number of mobile troops, most of the Burmese fighters waited for an attack and fell into chaos after being attacked.

The conflict in northern Myanmar is only a microcosm of the civil war in Myanmar, and in fact, the whole of Myanmar is full of fighting, and Min Aung Hlaing is overwhelmed. Taking advantage of the Burmese army's poor combat quality and defensive weaknesses, the rebel forces launched many attacks, and the frequency of the attacks made it difficult for the Burmese army to attack the enemy. Min Aung Hlaing has no time to take care of the war situation in northern Myanmar, and if the Burmese army is unable to adjust its strategy in time, abandon some locations, and shrink its forces to protect important areas, it is likely that the strength of the various resistance forces will continue to expand, making Min Aung Hlaing's situation even worse.

The dynamics of the war situation in northern Myanmar have attracted widespread attention, and the advance of the Kokang Allied Army, the Tatmadaw Army's **, and Min Aung Hlaing's accusations have brought a lot of food for thought. Among them, the controversy caused by Min Aung Hlaing's so-called "foreign experts" has not yet been resolved, and the full-scale outbreak of the civil war in Myanmar has highlighted the dilemma faced by Min Aung Hlaing. Only through more communication and adjustment can Myanmar return to the track of peace and stability.
