Chapter 1367: 934 Good news

Not only Shenzhou, the uprising of the Allied Army triggered armed conflict in Myanmar, becoming a regionally hot topic of international concern.

As a neighbor, the people of Shenzhou are especially attentive to this matter, with related news hitting the trending lists daily.

A half month after the Allied Army launched a surprise attack, as many anticipated, the Kan Bang base fell.

That was secondary.

The crucial point is, since the war began, the Allied Army advanced rapidly, crushing everything in its path. Despite its previous advantages, Kan Bang was utterly defeated in this war, completely unable to retaliate, being pushed back all the way, losing tragically without even a symbolic victory.

War.

Apart from personnel quality and weaponry, another key factor plays a role.

Morale!

Although the Allied Army possessed powerful equipment, history shows that Shenzhou once used inferior equipment to bind the so-called United Nations Army led by the then largest country in the world.

Despite paying a tragic price, the result was a victory.

Unlike Kan Bang.

Swiftly defeated, unable to hold out, losing its base in less than a month.

Fujiwara Reiki did mention something right.

Belief really has power.

Of course, we can’t blame Kan Bang. Most warlords in Myanmar have troops that are merely fighting for survival, where loyalty is out of the question, much like workers who don’t care who they work for. A company’s collapse just means looking for another boss, unlike the past situations in Shenzhou.

Kan Bang’s controlled area spans nearly ten thousand square kilometers, with a length of approximately two hundred kilometers from north to south. Even if eaten bit by bit, the Allied Army theoretically shouldn’t be able to advance so quickly.

The reason is that after experiencing initial massive setbacks, the rapidly growing military strength of the Allied Army intimidated some people in Kan Bang, shattering their will to resist, causing Kan Bang troops to surrender wherever the Allied Army went, leading to the Allied Army reaching Kan Bang’s base within a mere half month.

Initially, everyone thought that Kan Bang had nowhere to retreat, and instead of waiting for death, it should concentrate its forces for a desperate struggle. To everyone’s surprise, the final decisive battle did not occur, but a dramatic result unfolded.

On the night the Allied Army besieged the city, an internal mutiny occurred within Kan Bang.

That’s right.

Mutiny.

Kan Bang’s leader was certainly advocating for a last stand, but his will could no longer control the disheartened troops.

Two brigade commanders, pessimistic about the situation, united, and instead of surrendering, took their men and sent their higher-ups on a journey.

Including Kan Bang’s highest commander, the high-level leaders were entirely wiped out, and their heads became surrender tokens for the two brigade commanders.

At the moment the Allied Army entered the town of Pororo, it was evident that Kan Bang, which had dominated Myanmar for decades, collapsed. Without bloodshed, the Allied Army not only absorbed Kan Bang’s surrendered forces but expanded from fewer than four thousand at the start of the war to seven brigades!

This is the so-called strategy of sustaining war through war!

"Congratulations, General, on liberating Kan Bang."

At the celebration banquet.

Allied Army officers gathered, including cadres who surrendered from Kan Bang. Everyone sported joyful expressions, whether genuine or fake.

Liberation.

This term is quite cleverly used.

Kan Bang’s vast territory hasn’t been entirely taken. The Allied Army has only "liberated" a small part of it, but Kan Bang’s leadership is practically wiped out, with surviving forces either eliminated or surrendered, or fleeing, almost disappearing. The remainder are mere scattered soldiers, not worth worrying about.

Military strength surged, Kan Bang was swallowed whole, reaching its historical peak in prominence. As the highest leader of the Allied Army, Lord Jin was naturally the most excited.

"Tonight is worth remembering, and the future will only be better, cheers!"

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

Similar to starting a company together, the thriving success causes great excitement.

Lord Jin, with a mediocre build, wiped his mouth and looked at Xing Jie and Xu Kuan in the distance.

That’s right.

The two haven’t left.

"Jin salutes both of you."

The Allied Army was soaring, yet Lord Jin seemed unaffected by the tremendous accomplishments and maintained ongoing respect towards Xing Jie and Xu Kuan.

"Commander Jin is courteous, let’s all drink together."

Both Xing Jie and Xu Kuan raised their bowls and indicated to the Allied Army officers inside the hall.

"We accompany the General, toasting these two sirs."

Wei Yi laughed heartily and then gulped down a large bowl.

His side’s ability to reverse its stance against Kan Bang and achieve such incredible results made Lord Jin very aware of the reasons, well understood by the seated officers.

Crushing Kan Bang seemed easy, but now is not the time to be carefree.

Military expansion also means a surge in expenses. Prior income is insufficient for extended support, thus they depend on these two masters of finance.

Or more accurately.

They should be described as "quartermasters."

"Thus far, our military actions have achieved remarkable victories, worthy of celebration, but we mustn’t get carried away because liberating Kan Bang is just a phase towards the real strategic goal, which is still a lengthy journey away."

At this moment.
