When the book came to the office, Pan Yunsheng was angrily facing the electric fire.

“…… That's it, transfer them to the airport first, and if the situation worsens, immediately put them on the plane...... I heard it clearly, it was 'escorted' on the plane, not invited to get on the plane...... In this way, I will contact you again when there is a situation. Putting down the phone, Pan Yun let out a sigh and looked at the secretary standing at the door.

"Director, the information has been sorted out." Pan Yun was so angry that the secretary hurriedly put down the documents.

"Prepare my car and go to the Führer's capital right away."

The secretary nodded and exited the office.

After talking to the Führer, Pan Yunsheng left the office with the materials prepared for him by his secretary.

On the way to Yuan, Pan Yun's mood was still restless.

The phone in the car rang, Pan Yunsheng didn't seem to hear it, and the accompanying guard hesitated for a moment and picked up the microphone.

"Director, the Führer called."

"We'll be there shortly."

The guard glanced at Pan Yunsheng. The word was passed on.

"That's right. What is the situation of the old Führer? ”

"Old Führer" is the name given to the place where the Führer has left him. In general, it refers to Ji Youguo.

"It seems that I went to Hohhot a few days ago."

"Hohhot?" Pan Yunsheng glared at the guard. "What are you doing in Hohhot?"

"I don't know."

"When you arrive at the head of state's capital, you call the bureau and ask them to check the travel records of the old head of state and find out what the old head of state is doing in Hohhot."

The guard nodded and agreed.

Although Ji Youguo has left office, as a former head of state who has mastered a large number of state secrets, he still enjoys the treatment of the head of state, and he is accompanied by at least the bodyguard of the head of state to protect him when he travels on weekdays, and when he participates in major activities, he has to register with the head guard and the military intelligence bureau for the record.

When he arrived at the Führer's Mansion, Pan Yunsheng left all the guards outside.

Peng Maobang, Pang Xinglong, Huang Guowei, and Fu Xueyan, the ambassador to Laos who returned to China to report on their work, have arrived, and everyone is waiting for Pan Yunsheng, who will arrive at the end.

"The situation is clear." Pan Yunsheng handed over the documents he brought to Gu Jinhui, Zhao Rundong's local secretary, "The first few photos are taken by our intelligence officers in the past year, they are very clear, you can take a look." ”

When the photo spread and reached Fu Xueyan's hands, he immediately showed a look of surprise. "The first photo on the left...... The one on the left is the old Vice President of the country, Tamaphon, how did he ...... How could it be with ......"

Pan Yunsheng smiled faintly and said, "The person on the right in the first photo is CIA spy Yuan Ji, an American-Vietnamese. ”

"How could they be together?"

"Look at the second picture." Pan Yunsheng took the opportunity to light a cigarette and said, "The third person who appears in the photo is General Novan Sai, chief of staff of the Lao Army. In the third photo, along with Tamaphon and Novan Sai, is a senior ~ worker of the Vietnam Army Intelligence Bureau. The first three photos were taken in July last year. There are also a few photos in the back, taken in November last year, March this year and May this year. ”

Fu Xueyan quickly looked at the next few photos, was slightly stunned, and said, "So, they are preparing to launch a coup d'état?" ”

Yun Sheng nodded, nothing.

"But...... Why did the CIA and Vietnamese intelligence agencies plot a coup d'état in Laos? Laos is the poorest country in the world, and neither the CIA nor the Vietnamese intelligence agencies have any reason to ......"

"Last year's discovery."

Hearing Pan Yunsheng's words, Fu Xueyan trembled slightly, and then closed it.

Zhao Rundong frowned a few times and gave Pang Xinglong a look.

"Ambassador Fu, can you tell us about the situation in Laos?"

Fu Xueyan nodded and told the general situation of Laos.

Since the abolition of the constitutional monarchy and the establishment of the People's Democratic Republic in the mid-70s of the last century, the Lao People's Revolutionary Party has become the only political party. In the early 90s of the last century, Lao decided to take the line of reform and opening up on the "Five National Congress" and open up the domestic market to foreign capital. At the beginning of this century, Lao formulated a long-term national development plan at the "Seventh National Congress", and put forward the goal of basically eradicating poverty by 2010 and getting rid of underdevelopment by 2020. Because of the financial crisis, the slowdown in international investment, and so on, the economic development rate of the old economy is far from meeting the expected goals. By 2018, 70 per cent of older people still lived below the internationally recognized poverty line of less than $1 a day. In the World Development White Paper published by the United Nations, Laos remains one of the poorest countries in the world.

After introducing the situation, Huang Guowei found a reason to take Fu Xueyan away.

"The situation is clear to everyone." Zhao Rundong only spoke at this time, "According to Xiao Pan, a military coup is about to break out, what should we do?" ”

"The CIA and Vietnamese intelligence agencies are planning a military coup in Laos for the same purpose." Peng Maobang paused slightly, glanced at Pang Xinglong, and said, "In any case, we can't watch the Lao government overthrown by a coup. Even from the perspective of maintaining stability in the country's neighborhood, we should take action as soon as possible. ”

"Sending troops to Laos?" Zhao Rundong frowned.

"The first two rapid reaction brigades can be deployed within 12 hours and enter the old territory within 24 hours. If

Surrender troops, 12 hours to occupy Vientiane International Airport, 24 hours to complete the combat operation to suppress the coup d'état. Against a rabble, one airborne brigade is enough. ”

"Is it that easy?" Pang Xinglong muttered.

Peng Maobang's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Pang Xinglong.

"The point is, we're definitely late in our action." Pan Yunsheng hurriedly interjected, not letting Peng Maobang and Pang Xinglong argue, "The coup was planned by the CIA and Vietnamese intelligence agencies, and we must have considered our possible reaction in advance. Perhaps, while we are discussing the situation, a coup d'état has already taken place. ”

"By the way, + Yanbo is going to Vientiane?" Zhao Rundong asked.

Pan Yunsheng nodded=, and said: "I have already sent people over, and their safety should be guaranteed." ”

Zhao Rundong nodded and said, "The question now is whether we should send troops to intervene." ”

"The secondary issue of sending troops, I also believe that Mr. Peng's words can quell the rebellion as quickly as possible." Pang Xinglong's anger eased a lot, "The key question is, for what reason do we send troops?" The coup d'état is an internal affair of Laos, and we have no right to interfere in the internal affairs of Laos. Even if we do not recognize the coup d'état that came to power, we can only impose sanctions on Laos, which came to power after the coup. Without a justifiable reason, our invasion of Laos would be seen as an act of aggression. ”

"Aggression? Are we watching the overthrow of the red regime in Laos? "Peng Maobang is still very direct.

"Xiao Pang's words have a certain geography." Zhao Rundong pressed his hand and didn't let the two quarrel, "The coup was planned by the CIA, and the United States must be ready for it." If we brazenly send troops, the United States will certainly accuse us of aggression and impose sanctions on us. Judging from the current domestic and international situation, we cannot yet act against the United States. ”

"You can't do everything!" Peng Maobang's attitude was very resolute.

Pan Yunsheng hesitated a little and said, "What if we can get a reason to send troops?" ”

Pang Xinglong frowned slightly and didn't say anything more.

Zhao Rundong glanced at the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau and motioned for Pan Yunsheng to continue.

"If the leaders of the old country are exiled to our country and ask us to send troops to help the Lao Ding rebellion, we will not have to worry that there is no reason to send troops."

"Are you sure?"

Pan Yunsheng sighed. "I'm just suggesting it's possible."

"I think it's better not to interfere in the internal affairs of Laos in any case. As the poorest country in the world, with a population of less than six million, we cannot afford to add a burden at this time. ”

"Laos is not a burden, but a battleground." Peng Maobang glared at Pang Xinglong and said, "Militarily, it is always a strategic place to balance the Indochina Peninsula. If it can control Lao, it will have an impact on neighboring Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand and Myanmar. Economically, last year's great discovery on the Sichuan Plateau can provide tremendous help in resolving the bottleneck in China's economic development and provide the most valuable resources for China's development in the next 20 to 30 years. On the side of the couch, you will not allow others to sleep soundly. In any case, we cannot allow Vietnam to control Laos with the United States. ”

It can be seen from these remarks that after Ji Youguo left office, Peng Maobang not only paid more attention to military reform and construction, but also took the time to learn a lot of knowledge unrelated to military affairs.

Pan Yunsheng secretly agreed with Peng Maobang's view, but knew that it would not be easy for Zhao Rundong to make a decision.

Dong let out a long sigh and looked at Pang.

"Mr. Peng is right, I also admit that the strategic position of Laos is very important, and I know better how important the discovery of Sichuan Khouang is to my country's economic development, but ......," Pang Xinglong sighed, "The outbreak of the global depression has also affected my country's economic development. This year's finances are very tight, and various departments are asking me for money. If the troops are sent to the old age, it is not just a counterinsurgency war, but it is very likely to turn into a larger regional war. The United States has planted a trail in Iran for all to see, and if we make the same mistake in Laos, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

I have to admit that Pang Xinglong's words also make sense.

As always, Zhao Rundong fell into deep thought and did not make a decision immediately.

At that moment, the phone on the desk rang. Pan Yunsheng was the closest, and seeing that Zhao Rundong didn't plan to answer the phone, he went over and picked up the microphone.

"Yes, I'm ...... What the...... Okay, follow the emergency plan, I'll be back as soon as possible. Putting down the microphone, Pan Yunsheng said to the few people who looked over, "I just received news that the coup has broken out, and the rebels are advancing towards the Prime Minister's Office and the President's residence. Reconnaissance satellites have found that Vietnam has assembled three infantry divisions and one armored division in the Vietnam-Laos border area in western Nghe An province, which may enter Laos within 24 hours. ”

"Vietnam sending troops to Laos?" Pang Xinglong's eyes widened suddenly.

Pan Yunsheng nodded and looked at Zhao Rundong.

"Find out what's going on right now." Zhao Rundong did not hesitate any longer, "I will make a decision as soon as possible and report any new discoveries immediately." Also, remember to bring back + Hikohiro and the others. ”

"I'll go back and deal with it right away, and I'll call you if there's a situation."

Pan Yunsheng left the Führer's Mansion in a hurry, knowing that Zhao Rundong was unlikely to make a decision immediately. (To be continued)
