AN/PPS-26 wall penetration detector, American product, from Laos. I just got it today.

I asked our quartermaster, and he said that we don't have much use for this thing, and it is more suitable for teams that are good at playing CQB.

You are the most suitable users - don't think too much. We are cooperating with Chaisili. Jackal mentioned something about you to me. I didn't intend to inquire about it.

Sitting in the living room, Peng Xucheng was introducing the products on the surface, but more importantly he was trying to explain his purpose here.

He mentioned Chaisili and Jackal, and his meaning was obvious.

That is:

Chaisili knows that you are good seedlings, and now we know it too.

Therefore, showing kindness to you is not harboring evil intentions, but good intention to win over you.

Of course Chen Chen could hear the implication, so he finally let down his guard and began to seriously discuss this unexpected deal with Peng Xucheng.

He opened his mouth and said:

The stuff is indeed good stuff, but with all due respect, it's really not of much use in northern Myanmar.

Even for mercenaries, the orders they receive rarely involve CQB. Most of the time they are jungle field battles or positional battles.

Instead of needing this detector, I might as well save the money and buy a set of night vision devices.

Hearing his words, Peng Xucheng sighed very realistically.

So, this thing really can't be sold. I'm not afraid of you bargaining. I dare to tell you directly. There are only three customers who can use this thing now.

One is you, one is the Myanmar Mountain Troops, and the other is Chaisili.

Needless to say, Chaisili, they don't like this thing at all.

It is not convenient for us to have too much dealings with the Burmese army. The Shan State, Wa State and Mofa Army will all have objections.

So, I will bring you here today to try my luck. What if I can sell it?

Can't sell it.

Chen Chen shook his head decisively and then said:

We don't have much cash, and this thing is worthless. If it costs a few hundred dollars each, I will consider buying it as a backup.

But if you asked the quartermaster about AN/PPS-26, you should know how expensive this thing is.

So I'm sorry, I really can't afford your price.

Peng Xucheng's expression was a little disappointed - he wanted to facilitate this deal, but Lang had no intention of having a concubine, so he couldn't give it away for free, right?

That would be too deliberate and a huge loss.

Okay. That doesn't matter. It's a sale anyway. There's no such thing as a deal.

But don't you really want to ask about the price? We plan to give you $10,000 each.

If it's 1,000, I'll consider it.

Chen Chen smiled and shook his head.

Is $10,000 expensive?

It's dirt cheap.

But he didn't have to spend the money.

One thousand dollars. That's too low a price.

Hearing this, Chen Chen thought that the business was over, but unexpectedly, Peng Xucheng said next:

But, we have another plan.

For a deposit of 500 US dollars, I will give you the things and pay in installments later. Then, how about you sell me a favor and help us complete a task?

Sure enough, it was said that Peng Xucheng could not have come here just to sell something.

After figuring out his true purpose, Chen Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

how to say? Don't be afraid of being bad for no reason, just be afraid of being good for no reason.

So, he smiled and said:

I guess it's not that simple for you to come here today - tell me, what's the mission?

Peng Xucheng also laughed and replied:

Then let's stop talking behind the scenes and get straight to the point.

This mission is similar to Wan Henai's. They are both difficult to crack.

It's difficult and the expected casualties are high, so no one is willing to take it - after thinking about it, maybe you are the only one who can do this job.

This was a pretty high-level compliment, but Chen Chen just nodded noncommittally, and then asked:

What is the specific situation?

Treat mission, clear out a camp.

Peng Xucheng took out a piece of information and placed it in front of Chen Chen, and then continued:

It is located in Wanxi, a village-level armed group with relatively complex buildings, a population of about 100, and not many armed personnel. A total of 16 have been identified so far, but they have a lot of explosives and a small amount of heavy weapons.

They started growing opium poppies a year ago and entered the drug trade three months ago, which touched the interests of the Ruan Long Group. The Ruan Long Group wanted to kill Wan Xi, but Ruan Long's business was mainly in the Huay Shai area, and the distance was really great. It was too far, so we approached Shan State and asked for Wanxi’s abolition in the name of drug control.”

Shan State itself plans to imitate the Wa State's anti-drug policy, but the forces here are too complex and difficult to deal with. Now there are people who are trying to do it. The 7th Brigade is happy to do this, but you know the 7th Brigade, their combat capabilities Not strong.

It's okay to fight in the field, but if you want to fight in the streets, a lot of people will die.

So the order is in our hands - and now it's in your hands.

After listening to Peng Xucheng's words, Chen Chen couldn't help but feel a little funny.

He knew about the Ruan Long Group. It was created by a Henanese named Xuan Ruan Long. He was originally a subordinate of Kun Sha. After Kun Sha was defeated by the Wa State 171 Military Region, he established himself as king and used the jade business as a cover. In fact, they are still dealing in drugs.

In the previous life, when I participated in a joint operation, I fought against him. The combat power was not strong, but it was okay. In the end, he was blown to pieces by a 155 grenade that was temporarily transferred.

However, I really didn't know that he could actually do such a strange thing.

A drug lord, demanding a ban on drugs? How much of a threat can Wan Xi pose to the Ruan Long Group?

Chen Chen asked.

It's mainly a market threat. They are developing very fast and lack restrictions.

The main reason is that Wanxi himself is, what should I say? A sore that cannot be touched or not touched. Many of the villagers are wounded soldiers who were abandoned by the Burmese army's Mengku camp.

The story here is very complicated, but in short, you can fight them with confidence and boldness.

This is hard work, but not dirty work. Everyone wants Wan Xi to die, but there has always been a lack of a 'reasonable' reason, and now, the Ruan Long Group has just given the reason.

Understood.

Chen Chen nodded slightly, and then asked:

What about commission? How much can you give?

150,000 U.S. dollars. The total price offered by the Ruan Long Group was 2 million U.S. dollars, but that was for the Shan State. The Shan State allocated it to the Seventh Brigade, and the amount became 1 million U.S. dollars, and then the Seventh Brigade gave it to us. It’s only 300,000. If we give you another 150,000, it will really be the limit.”

Peng Xucheng maintained a candid attitude as always, but Chen Chen knew that although the layered subcontracting situation he mentioned did exist, there must still be some water in it.

You can't squeeze hard, but it's okay to squeeze a little.

It's 200,000 yuan. It's too difficult, the cycle is too long, and our costs can't be met.

After thinking for a moment, Peng Xucheng finally nodded.

It's okay, but if it's 200,000, you have to ensure 'complete destruction'. It's best to break up the whole village of Wanxi.

No problem, we'll burn all their poppy fields.

make a deal!

Peng Xucheng stretched out his hand, and the two immediately held their hands together.

After sending Peng Xucheng away, Chen Chen finally let go of his reserve, picked up the detector on the table, walked to the next room and started testing.

The effect is really very good. With a detection range of close to 30 meters, personnel activities are clear at a glance. With this thing, if we encounter the situation like today's training again, we don't need to use one person as cannon fodder to track down the enemy.

In a word, this thing can turn preview into perspective.

Even if you have never fought a serious war, anyone who has played games knows how terrifying this thing is.

People are still calculating and adjusting the headshot line up and down. If you pull it out, it will be a shot. Who can stop it?

In his previous life, Chen Chen also used similar equipment when he was in the brigade. It can be said that with or without this thing, CQB is completely different from heaven to earth.

$500 is really as cheap as winning the lottery.

As for what subsequent installments will be paid?

Bah, only a fool would pay.

The reason why Peng Xucheng chose a detector as the entry point was because it could be used in the subsequent Wanxi mission?

Since it is used in the mission, it is what you get based on your ability, so what else is there to say?

It's mine.

I have to say, reputation is really valuable. In just a few days, I was able to steal wool from the wooden ghost.

Seeing Chen Chen's actions, the other three people gathered around him with great interest. Chen Chen probably taught them how to use it, and then he went back to the table to eat the food that was almost cold.

Bao Qi and Li Gang talked non-stop while Shi Dakai listened silently and nodded occasionally.

From Chen Chen's perspective, this scene is even a bit heartwarming.

Isn't it?

The few stinky fish and shrimps that were originally dragged together in the Kokang Alliance Army have now begun to take the shape of a team.

They may not be able to safely hand their backs to their comrades yet, but they will one day do so.

Chen Chen swallowed the food in his mouth and put down the bowl. He planned to join in the interaction between the three of them and deepen their relationship.

But at this moment, Shi Dakai, who had been staring at the detector screen, suddenly said something.

do not move!

There's someone outside!
