We go through a period of history, a history of vicissitudes and complexity!
In 1949, the original China liberation, belonging to the Yunnan area in eighth due to the Kuomintang did not retreat, not in the head under the leadership of Li Guohui, now entering the Golden Triangle area and stuck in local Kuomintang anti-Japanese expeditionary force with the remnants of the 93 division. They are from the Golden Triangle area, Jiang Jieshi instructions, forced to stay in Burma after being squeezed into the territory of Thailand, waiting for the so-called "Republic of China" the opportunity to stage a comeback. The army has experienced four Lv Guoquan, Li Guohui, Li Mi, Duan Xiwen.
93 under the tutelage of Southwest Golden Triangle on the ground, due to years of war, no military supplies, and Burma and Burma Army soldiers support team began collective cultivation of opium in the Golden Triangle area, the formation of the world's largest drug production base.
Later, the ordeal of vicissitudes of the army removed to northern Thailand Gomez Le Zhen, headquarters stationed in Maesalong village by the Thailand government, and in the enclosure, at an altitude of over one thousand meters of the vast mountains thrive, hard life. As the trading conditions, in addition to their opium and heroin trafficking, but also to assist the government of Thailand against Golden Triangle rebels and armed drug trafficking, as he and Luo Xinghan and PHA Dang guerrillas. Although they are obsessed with their own...... is Chinese, but in fact he had become a free country army, a group of stateless people.

Today is not for opium, not out of the drug trafficking. The overlapping mountains have become a wild profusion of vegetation of tea gardens, also built a comfortable and elegant Maesalong Village Resort, become popular winter resort in Thailand. The 93 division soldiers descended from some of the tea shop, some small shops....... They say the standard Chinese Mandarin, said his hometown, said Thailand local dialect, the language advantage, many young people as a tour guide. But like China's rural areas today, more young people choose to go out of the mountains to work.
