Biyun Mountain is more than 5,000 meters above sea level, but because it is located in the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, for the mountainous southwest, the altitude of 4,000 meters can only be regarded as an ordinary mountain range. The mountain range is not vast, less than a hundred miles in circumference, and there is only one main peak, on which a lot of snow accumulates on the mountain. From halfway up the mountain to the foot of the mountain, there is lush vegetation everywhere. Due to the climate change caused by the altitude, there are many rare plants and animals on this mountain. The locals of Yunnan are not accustomed to the plateau climate above 4,000 meters. The bandits of Heiyunzhai also set up the cottage in the middle of the mountain, which is not only convenient for going down the mountain to loot, but also has a more suitable climate.

The regimental headquarters of the 117th Regiment was led by a Dai guide to the Black Cloud Village on the mountainside, and in this place where the cliffs stand, a large area of Dai-style stilted buildings was erected, exuding an antique charm. In the center of this cottage is a small waterfall, where the snow melts over the years and the mountain spring falls from a high place, forming a waterfall more than ten meters high in this relatively flat place. In conjunction with the verdant primeval jungle here, there is a unique poetic feeling.

"Great place, really nice place. It's a terrible thing that such a natural beauty has allowed a group of rude bandits to toss for so long. Looking at the environment of this black cloud village, Ji Cong, the political commissar of the 117th regiment, unconsciously became sour.

"Okay political commissar, your sour gas will come back later, now clean up the battlefield first and find out the situation of this gang of bandits. Looking at the posture of this Black Cloud Village, I'm afraid things are not as simple as we imagined. Looking at the neat and uniform Dai buildings, Qian Dagen, the head of the 117th regiment, frowned unconsciously.

"Huh?" With Qian Dagen's words, Ji Cong also discovered something unusual.

"There are masters in this Black Cloud Village! At least there are experts to guide the construction of these Dai stilted buildings. "If it were just a gang of bandits who had risen from the end of the world, it would be impossible for them to have such brains and courage. Although there are dense bamboo forests here, there are sufficient materials for building stilted buildings, but if you want to integrate the construction of stilted buildings with the environment here, and reduce the damage to the environment as much as possible, such means are definitely not what these bandits who make a living by oppressing the Dai people can do.

"Chief, you see, there are some crude buildings in front of the waterhole. If I'm not mistaken, these buildings were built after the bandits took over the place. Before the appearance of these bandits, I am afraid that there were these stilted buildings here. I wonder if this is an important place for the Dai people. Ji Cong said contemplatively.

"Lao You, this is the stilted building of your Dai people, this place should have something to do with you, right?" Qian Dagen doesn't understand these things, but this doesn't prevent people from asking who understand. And this Dai translator is the best candidate. The Dai translator's name is Avocado. Although his hometown is not on the border, after all, he is a Dai person, and he always knows more about the situation in their clan than outsiders.

"I've never been to this place, it's the border between our country and Myanmar, and it's a primeval jungle. Perhaps the old people in the village may not know what is going on here. Looking at the magnificent stilted building, the avocado can't be sure. A stilted building of this scale is nothing in a place where the big Dai tribes gather, but it is different in this extremely remote place.

At this time, a group of soldiers escorted a dozen prisoners over.

"Report to the head of the group, this is the high-ranking bandit we captured, there are a total of eight leaders, three Han Chinese, two Dai people, and three Burmese." The battalion commander said loudly.

"What about our casualties?" Qian Dagen said in a deep voice.

"There were no casualties, only three brothers were injured by stray bullets." The commander of the first battalion said. ..., "How many people were captured?" Ji Cong asked. This mountain is not small, and if the enemy finds it early, there will definitely be fish that have escaped with the help of the environment.

"We killed more than 100 people, and the remaining 800 or so were basically taken prisoner. After interrogation, only one Burmese man fled. The first battalion commander said excitedly.

"What's the catch?" This group of people has been entrenched in Myanmar for many years, and they must have a lot of supplies.

"A batch of weapons and ammunition have been seized, and there are silver coins, but not much, and there is a large pile of white powder treasured by the bandits, not just whether it is poison powder or not!"

"Poison powder?" Ji Cong frowned.

"Take us around!"

In the largest stilted building in the center of Heiyun Village, there is a Han-style plaque hanging on it, with three seal characters with extraordinary pen power.

"Juyitang! The name is good, but it is blind to use it on some bandits who burn and loot. Ji Cong looked at the three-character plaque on the stilted building and said.

"Alright. Let's go and see the catch! Qian Dagen interrupted Ji Cong and took the lead in the inner hall.

"What is this?" Looking at the white powder that was the size of a cube and piled up in small packets, Qian Dagen's brows furrowed, he didn't know what it was, and he didn't dare to move. He looked back at Ji Cong, who also looked away, saying that he didn't know him.

"This ...... Is this it? The face of the avocado who came in after changed his face.

"What's wrong? Do you know this thing? Ji Cong asked.

"I'm not sure, I've heard that in the Burmese region there are people who have extracted a white powder from opium. After smoking, the effect is several times stronger than opium. And it's more addictive than opium. But no one has ever seen this kind of poisonous powder. ”

"Extracted from opium?" Qian Dagen was also stunned. They didn't expect it to be something like this.

"Battalion Commander Wang, immediately interrogate those bandit leaders, be sure to find out this thing, if it is really a poisonous powder extracted from opium, then we must report it as soon as possible, although this kind of thing is small in size, but it is more harmful. Once it spreads, the responsibility is not something we can bear. Ji Cong's face became very solemn. Since Feng Yong's reign in the country, he has issued draconian laws to eliminate the influence of opium in China. In addition to setting up more than 1,000 drug rehabilitation centers throughout the country, it has also set up a special customs anti-narcotics department for this purpose, equipped with a large number of small surface warships, and carried out strict inventory of seaborne goods entering China, and has also set up garrisons on land borders to conduct inspections. Without these initiatives, China would not have been able to detect opium from dozens of ships at once a few months ago, and would not be in the dangerous situation in China today.

These bandits were not only vulnerable in combat, but also soft in terms of bones, and before the interrogation methods of the Wehrmacht had been used, these bandits were paralyzed with fright. The scramble to pour out the origin of these powders.

"It's called heroin, and it's really extracted from opium. According to the bandits, these things came from Burmese territory and were obtained from the Burmese division, which was thirty kilometers from the border. I heard that it was produced in a British factory in Myanmar. The annual production is not much, and the price is very expensive. And since it was produced, it was more expensive than gold, because it was easier to carry and smuggle than opium, and it was circulated throughout the dark side of Southeast Asia. Ji Cong said with a heavy face.

But heroin is relatively rare in China, which has long been an opium-infested area. The reason for this is simple. Whether it is China in the Manchu Dynasty or China during the Beiyang Government, the rule of officials is **. Especially after tariffs were controlled by Western countries, contraband like opium became a legal commodity in China. Officials across China were involved in the opium trade for profiteering. This has led to a serious opium epidemic. ..., compared to the expensive heroin, China, which is already poor, is more receptive to opium. Both ordinary people and officials and gentry have no objection to smoking, but they really do not agree with smoking this heroin or injecting morphine through the meridians. In a country that relies on natural Chinese medicine, it is difficult for the Western set of medical ideas to spread to China's backward rural areas in a short period of time. In addition, opium is also cultivated in large quantities in China, so that the opium market has always been hot in China. Heroin, which is easy to carry and has good privacy, is transported to independent and developed countries, and the United States, which is considered to be the land of freedom, is the area where heroin is most widely walked. There is also a lot of circulation in the Western world, and drugs are a double-edged sword, even if they are produced by colonizers. It is also possible to poison the country's population.

After the establishment of the new Chinese government, it cracked down on opium sales networks throughout the country, banned opium cultivation, imprisoned opium traffickers, and subjected opium addicts to compulsory drug rehabilitation. All of a sudden, China went from an ideal country for the circulation of opium to a forbidden area for opium. Myanmar is an important source of opium, and a large amount of opium flows into Myanmar every year. But many of these networks were cut off during World War I. Later, the British were forcefully interrupted by the Chinese government to transport opium through customs. The British in Burma, on the one hand, wanted to put pressure on the Chinese government by force, and on the other hand, they began to pump heroin into China. I want heroin to replace opium and become a poison that poisons the Chinese system.

"Regiment commander, immediately report the matter here to the brigade commander, this matter is probably not as simple as we imagined. These bandits said that in the past they only sold opium, but since the crackdown in the country, they have not dared to enter again. In order to prevent it from attracting the attention of the Chinese government, it will be surrounded and suppressed by the border garrison. But then they heard that someone was making a fortune smuggling heroin into the country, and the government was still blank in that regard. As soon as the more than a dozen village owners of Heiyun Village discussed, they took advantage of their connections in the Burmese division and wanted to get involved. But what they didn't expect was that they could easily get a ton of heroin with a price higher than gold, and the cost of so much heroin Heiyunzhai couldn't afford it at all. After all, Heiyunzhai is only the king and hegemon in this high mountain and dense forest, surrounded by poor and backward Dai villages and Burmese people, except for the resources in the mountains, there is nothing to get hold of. But the strange thing is that the Burmese division did not let them pay in full immediately, but only paid half of the deposit and sent the goods. He was even accompanied by a British army major. This is a great thing for Heiyunzhai. The British are well-deserved uncrowned kings in Burma, and of course the little bandit cottage in Heiyun Village does not dare to offend.
