"During those few years, Mu Yang had a very good relationship with the Japanese. He helped the Japanese do many things overtly and secretly. The jewels, emeralds and antique jades that Japan robbed from China's Yunnan border and from our Burma were handed over to Mu Yang was in charge, and it was continuously transported in from the Burma Road, and finally handed over to the Japanese Supreme Commander Shojiro Iida."

"Shojiro Iida?" Wang Ping was stunned for a moment when she heard the name. She felt that it seemed very familiar, but she couldn't remember who the Japanese was. But she glanced at Utai and suddenly thought, isn't this the What Wutai said, was it the original owner of the abandoned house that he was asked to go to in the second note he got?

Du Jiangwen didn't notice Wang Ping's distraction, and she continued in a deep and slow voice: "Who knows that in 1945, the Chinese Expeditionary Force and the British Army retreating to India started their second battle. counterattack, and the Japanese army did not help Burma become independent after the victory of the first Burmese war, but instead replaced Britain as Burma's new suzerain and continued its repressive rule. Therefore, we Burmese people recognize the face of the Japanese, General Aung San secretly established an anti-fascist alliance. In March 1945, he led the Burmese National Defense Forces to attack the Japanese army. Because General Aung San and his National Defense Forces suddenly defected, Japan lost its previous favorable geographical location and the rainy season in Myanmar. Due to the unfavorable climate and the loss of supplies, the tropical jungle in the rainy season is like a green hell filled with steam. Those Japanese soldiers who were tortured by hunger and disease died in thousands and thousands, and collapsed in the dense forest along the way. Countless people were engulfed by the turbid current and their whereabouts are unknown. So they were already seriously injured before the British, Chinese, and Burmese allied forces attacked."

"The defeat of this war came too suddenly. The Japanese soldiers did not expect to lose the support of our Burmese people. They could not even last for half a year before they were completely defeated. So the biggest retreat on the Burmese battlefield began. Those Japanese top officers began to take them. The gold and silver treasures that came here wanted to be transported back to Japan, and at that time the person who controlled the route from Yunnan, China to Yangon Port, Myanmar, located in the Kokang District, was Mu Yang, who had become Shojiro Iida’s confidant in Myanmar at that time.”

"So there were rumors, true or false, that Shojiro Iida gave Mu Yang all the gold bars, antiques, and jadeites that many Japanese imperial generals had no time to take away when they retreated, and asked him to find a way to get them back after they left. Batches of treasures are shipped out."

"However, no one expected that the mighty Japanese empire would turn from prosperity to decline. Soon, the US atomic bomb exploded on the Japanese mainland, and Japan surrendered unconditionally. The signing ceremony of surrender to the Allies was held on the US battleship Missouri. Those who came from Burma The Japanese military general who left died and was sent to a military court for sentencing, so there were rumors that the jewels were not actually sent out by Mu Yang, but were secretly hidden by him and embezzled.”

"What about Muyang? He became a spy of the Japanese and betrayed the clan. Will the Mu family let him go like this after Japan withdraws?" Wu Tai felt as if he had grasped the key to this incident. Can't help but ask.

Du Jiangwen nodded when he heard Wu Tai's question, then sighed and said, "Your question is good, young master. How could the Mu family let this evil Mu Yang go, but I didn't expect that when everyone decided to ask He settled accounts after the autumn, and expelled this unworthy descendant from his family. Then when the official punishment was announced, he suddenly disappeared. With the legendary huge wealth on his body, he disappeared without a trace."

Wang Ping couldn't help frowning when she heard this, she really felt that Mu Yang was a little too amazing.A Burmese of Han ethnicity, he was a radical and progressive young man with passion, pursuing independence and democracy. In today’s words, he is still a diehard fan of General Aung San; but why did he turn his back on the motherland and the people of the motherland after three years? Instead, he became an out-and-out Burmese traitor, helping the evildoers with the Japanese invading army.He even became the confidant of Japan's supreme commander in Burma at that time.

Especially after his spiritual idol, General Aung San, also turned his guns on the Japanese, he is still willing to stay on the big ship of Japan, which is about to be silent.Refusing to pick up the fruits of victory.

Wang Ping didn't know what happened in the short three years of becoming the chieftain of Kokang District, turning such a progressive patriotic young man with thought and judgment into a lackey who worked for the Japanese foolishly and loyally. Even when General Shan began to perceive the Japanese's sinister intentions or another political speculation, he still did not change his original intention.

If this Mu Yang is a treacherous and evil person, and he continues to help the Japanese in order to embezzle their property, then he doesn't have to act like this.Judging from his previous performance, Mu Yang's initial contact would not be with the Japanese, but with the National Defense Forces of General Aung San.The National Defense Forces turned their guns to help the Allied forces attack Japan at the last moment of the war. As long as Mu Yang let go, he can still become a hero in Myanmar like General Aung San, and continue to be his chieftain after the victory of the war.

After all, there is General Aung San, a national hero, the father of Myanmar, and the mistakes he made in the past are not much more serious than General Aung San.The chieftain is working all the time, and the power is in his hands all the time. In a place like Myanmar where there are many warlords and talk by the barrel of a gun, the property gathered in the future will definitely not be much worse than that of the ignorant Japanese.And compared to taking the blood, sweat, gold, silver and treasures of China and Burma that the Japanese robbed, and then hiding in Tibet, in constant fear, wouldn't it be more upright to continue to be the emperor of the country in Kokang District, why bother to risk so much for that little money? risk.

This is completely two extremes from the intelligence he showed before.

But if Mu Yang is a good person, then why did he continue to do evil until the face of Japanese fascism was finally revealed? Could there be some unavoidable reason for this, but what happened to his disappearance in the end?

Thinking of this, Wang Ping raised her head and looked between Wu Tai and Du Jiangwen.Who knows that their focus is completely different from their own.

"Then what does this Muyang have to do with my grandfather, and why does it involve my grandma?" Wu Tai clenched his hands into fists, afraid that the facts Du Jiangwen spit out were the facts he had already guessed in his heart.

Du Jiangwen glanced at him, and sighed imperceptibly: "You seem to have guessed something?"

"That Mu Yang is your great-grandfather, your grandma's grandfather."

"What?" Wang Ping and Wu Tai blurted out together.

Du Jiangwen nodded heavily.

"But...but... isn't my great-grandfather named Mu Hai? He...he...I remember him...my grandfather said that he was the chieftain of Kokang District after World War II. Later, in 1959, the government peacefully reorganized the chieftain government and established Kokang Afterwards, the great grandfather entered the central government according to the agreement. Until the military coup, the great grandfather was put under house arrest and died at his home in Yangon. Even though the grandfather stayed in Kokang, the power of the family area continued to shrink, and the power After failing the ranking, the Kokang District was later taken over by Luo Xinghan and Peng Jiasheng, and became the Guokang Autonomous Region. I remember that my grandfather was always heartbroken when he talked about Taiwaizu, saying that it would be fine if he didn’t trust the government army back then. How could it be like this?" At the end of Wutai's speech, he lowered his head weakly and looked at Du Jiangwen with a blank look.

Du Jiangwen couldn't bear to look directly at Wu Tai's eyes, and she glanced slightly to the ground: "At first, after finding out, Miss also had the same reaction as you. She still couldn't believe it and didn't want to admit it. But in the end she It turns out that this is true, and Mu Hai is the son of the chieftain who Mu Yang replaced, that is, Mu Yang's cousin."

"Because it's been so long, the insiders from back then are almost dead now, and your grandmother doesn't know what happened. I only know that Mu Hai had a child who was seriously ill not long after he was born and died. Not long after. He begged Mu Yang. He heard that the military doctors in the Japanese army were highly skilled. He hoped that he could find a Japanese military doctor for his little nephew to see if he could be saved. So Mu Yang agreed. , and then he took the seriously ill child away, and it took about a year before Mu Yang brought back a very healthy child. This child's eyebrows and eyes were very similar to Mu Hai's, so when Mu Yang told Mu Hai This child is your dying son, Mu Hai believed it."

"But according to the news from your grandmother, it was your great-grandfather who told your real-grandfather his true identity before he died. Your great-grandfather is indeed Mu Yang's son. His facial features are more than just like Mu Hai is actually more like Mu Yang; but they are two brothers, and it is very normal for them to look alike. But after Mu Hai picked up the child, he inspected the child carefully, only to find that the child was the same as the one he had sent away before. Compared with his own son, there is one less birthmark on his body, he never told anyone about this birthmark, only Mu Hai and Mu Hai's wife know about it. From this comparison, they know that there is definitely something wrong with this child."

"But Mu Yang was in power at that time, and Mu Hai and his wife didn't dare to speak up; when Japan was defeated and Mu Yang disappeared, the two of them had developed a relationship with this child. They knew that once others found out that this was Mu Yang's child , I'm afraid those people won't let this child go so easily, so they simply recognize it and raise it as their own."

"I don't know how the lady got this secret from the master, but now that the lady is gone, it's time for me to tell you, young master. Your great-grandfather is Mu Yang who betrayed the clan and the country back then!"

Hearing Du Jiangwen's affirmative words, Wu Tai's face turned pale: "No, I don't believe it!" He still didn't want to believe this fact, he bit his lips tightly, but finally spit out these words very firmly. In a word.

Du Jiangwen looked at Wu Tai with pity, and sighed softly: "Young master, you give me these two pieces of jade, and they will prove my words." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come Vote for recommendations, monthly tickets, your support is my biggest motivation.)
