Wang Yue couldn't just watch someone else snatch the duck right out of his mouth after all the work he'd put into this operation. So he struck at the enemy's weak point, using his carefully placed operatives to lead his men in taking Lashio. That completely cut off NM Armed Forces' chance to keep meddling north of Lashio.
The armed groups backed by NM Armed Forces hadn't expected Nava Armed Forces to dare turn against them. Only when they realized how serious things were did they understand that if they didn't leave now, they'd never get away. They hurriedly gathered their men and the supplies they'd looted, then fled.
Wang Yue didn't pursue them. He stayed put to defend the area and continued organizing people to build fortifications.
As for Old Xu's front, BD Armed Forces and ND Armed Forces might usually fight each other fiercely, but when an outside enemy appeared, they still stood together.
Faced with such a dangerous situation, they actually joined forces to support each other, ready at any moment to face an attack from Nava Armed Forces.
