Chapter 182 - Battle of the Barracks

There was not much food in the army, and if this continued, it would be out of food for at most two days. Wu Yuzhang decided to go over and check the reason why the food was delayed. He brought a guard platoon and two personal guards. Wu Yuzhang soon arrived at Yang Guozheng's military camp more than ten kilometers away behind.

When he arrived near the military camp, Wu Yuzhang felt a tense atmosphere. No one in the military camp was fucked, and he could not even see anyone walking. Only the bright and dark whistles from far and near were still watching the situation nearby. Occasionally, sentries looked at Wu Yuzhang, and their eyes were cold.

Wu Yuzhang thought it was not good, so he asked everyone to be alert, and then strode towards the camp gate. When he was about to reach the camp gate, two sentries stopped them: "Stop, what are you doing?"

"I am Wu Yuzhang, I am here to meet the Regent. Please inform me." Wu Yuzhang stopped five meters away from the sentry and said loudly to them.

"Commander Wu can go in, and the others are waiting outside the camp." The sentry shouted impatiently.

"When did the Self-Defense Force have such rules? Why don't I know? My brothers came and turned them out. Are you from the Self-Defense Force?" Wu Yuzhang said coldly.

This sentence stunned the sentry. After all, these people are from various northern regions and the soldiers are very familiar with them. If they really count, they might be able to find some relatives, so the atmosphere in the army is always very harmonious. Now they have to keep their brothers out of the door, especially this season when it might rain at any time, which is really unreasonable.

"Forget it, let the brothers go to the tent to rest. If you can't go over and see the Regent, you can only lead Wu to go alone." The sentry finally took a compromise notice. Wu Yuzhang nodded. He whispered a few instructions to the guards beside him, and strode into the camp gate.

Yang Guozheng was particular about pomp, so the tent he lived in was particularly large, and there were several floors of guards standing nearby to protect his safety. If someone saw him, he had to go through layers of notifications, and he could only enter after he agreed. Wu Yuzhang was no longer surprised by this, and after waiting patiently for the notification, he quickly walked into the tent.

A large tent was decorated with a large chair, covered with silk-woven soft cushions. Yang Guozheng snuggled in the middle, waiting for Wu Yuzhang to arrive. There was no furniture in the tent, so it seemed quite spacious, but there were officers from the Yang family standing on both sides, as if they were holding some military meeting.

Seeing Wu Yuzhang coming, Yang Guozheng smiled and said, "Commander Wu is not commanding the battle on the front line, why do you have time to come to me?"

Wu Yuzhang looked at the hostile eyes around him and said lightly: "I'm just here to ask the Regent why he hasn't distributed food in the past few days. The food in the army is no longer enough, so I'll come and take a look."

"Are you asking me if I will give food?" Yang Guozheng's tone was a little unkind.

"Of course not, but now it is at a critical moment of battle. Once Yangon is captured, Kokang Toast can complete control of the entire Maine. It would be a pity if he fails because of poor food." Wu Yuzhang's words were neither humble nor arrogant, and it was obviously testing Yang Guozheng's thoughts.

"Control Maine? It may not be certain who Maine belongs to. Maybe I, the Yang family, will change their surnames." Yang Biao said sarcastically from the side.

"What? Do you have any questions about this Brother Yang? Aren't we help Lord Tusi and Regent drive away the Saar invaders and defeat the Burmese army? What's the problem?" Wu Yuzhang asked back.

Yang Biao snorted coldly: "You said it nicely. I ask you why the entire Maine government affairs are in your hands now? Why are the army in your hands? When the entire Maine settles down, I am afraid that the Yang family will die without a place to bury."

"The government affairs took over because the chieftains had few people who could read and had no experience in governing such a large place, so we urgently allocated a group of talents to help the chieftains manage the local area. Now the people are convinced and praise the chieftains for their good governance. Isn't that good? As for who is in charge of the army? We are also serving Lord Chieftains and the Regent. Is it enough to hand over the army to you guys who don't understand military affairs? Should we fight that war?" Wu Yuzhang found that the atmosphere was wrong. He knew that this was the time to confront the tit-for-tat. Once he spoke with weakness, it would be easy to give the other party the upper hand.

"Nonsense is nothing but nonsense. I have long seen your thoughts. When the Sars are driven away, you will be the ones who oppress us. Will you kindly help us fight and then hand over the entire Maine to us for management?" Yang Tong, who was standing beside him, said.

Wu Yuzhang laughed: "Your idea is really naive, no wonder you can't be generous. Can people live only by oppressing people? The day when we entered Kokang already shows that everyone is Hualan, and Hualan people should unite and not be underestimated by the foreigners who bullied us. Now that we are already in the hope of victory, you are having your own brothers at this time. I doubt you are a traitor who was bribed by the Sars."

"You're talking nonsense, do you have any evidence that I'm a traitor?" Yang Tong said angrily.

"Now the Saars have no time to take care of Maine. The Burmese army is on the verge of collapse. The only chance they can turn the tables is our civil strife. In such a good situation, you deliberately provoke civil strife. Didn't the Saars give you money and let you do this?" Wu Yuzhang said sternly: "Sir Regent, the matter is obvious. Once we fight ourselves, who will benefit, the Regent should be very clear."

"This..." Yang Guozheng had no idea at this time. He knew very well about the current situation. Once his family fell into a slump, the previous good situation might collapse immediately. Even whether the original chieftain's jurisdiction could be kept is unknown. However, the threat from outsiders such as Wu Yuzhang is too great. Even if he launches an attack at this time, it is difficult to guarantee success, and it may even harm himself. Whether he is a bet, believing in the other party's sincerity, or rising to resist, it is indeed difficult for him to decide now.

"Regent, don't listen to this guy's nonsense. How could they be so kind? Now they are attacking Yangon. As long as we kill from behind, we can easily destroy them. Then Maine is ours." Yang Biao said angrily.

"What then? When the Burmese army in Yangon goes out of the city to counterattack, can you stop it? At that time, the Regent's army suffered heavy losses in internal strife, and if they are attacked by the Burmese army, they will have to be defeated. Do you dare to say that you are not a spy if you are trying your best to plan for the Sars?" Wu Yuzhang said sternly. Now he must bite the other party's intentions for the Sars to break such a deadlock.
