PS: Thank you, brothers, I got up this morning to look at the subscription, and it has broken a thousand. Thank you brothers for your support!

The soldier said a few more words, the soldier wrote books for ten years, and he always thought that as long as he read the soldier's book, it was a kind of support for me, so he never opposed piracy, and the attitude was "I don't object to seeing the pirate, and I am grateful for the genuine version". But the last book gave me a sense of crisis, because I had never encountered a book that I had spent so much effort on, but the average book was only 100...... The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms have been broken for so long, and now the average is only 400.

The soldier was a rural teacher, and his meager salary was simply not enough to support his family, so he felt unemployed, and the soldier was not relieved until the book was graded!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart, brothers! Thank you!

"Quick!" After looking at the time, Wang Mazi ordered: "Order the four battalions to organize defense outside the city, and all the other troops will go to the railway station to evacuate supplies!" ”

"Yes!" The adjutant answered and went to convey the order in a hurry.

The fourth battalion is Meng Lezeng's battalion, and it seems a little inappropriate to use this battalion to organize defense outside the city, after all, this battalion is all the way to gather the remnants of the new 29th Division, although its number is more than 2,000 people, most of them are recruits with no combat experience, and it is inevitable that the fourth battalion will be sent to the front line to organize defense, and there will inevitably be a suspicion of cannon fodder...... This is just like the effect produced by Gan Lichu's previous putting the temporary 55th Division at the forefront, and the officers and men of the 4th Battalion will take it for granted that they are being despised again.

But in fact, Wang Mazi's distribution makes sense...... Lashio has been lost, so the most important thing for the expeditionary force now is supplies.

If there are no supplies, then even if Myitkyina can be held, it will be futile, and in the absence of logistical supplies and material support, the expeditionary force will not be able to escape the fate of being surrounded by the Japanese army and finally running out of ammunition and food.

Therefore, this batch of materials at the railway station can be said to be a lifesaver for the expeditionary force, which must be evacuated and the sooner the better.

On the other hand, it was clearly not appropriate to use four battalions to evacuate supplies. The reason for this was that the four battalions were pieced together by the remnants of the new 29th Division. They haven't had time to integrate in a hurry, and the fourth battalion doesn't have many cars and tanks in their hands, so it won't be very efficient for them to evacuate supplies.

Later, I learned that there were indeed many soldiers in the fourth battalion who were dissatisfied with Wang Mazi's order, and some of them complained:

"What is this? They went to the train station to grab things by themselves, and let us go to the front line to block the devils? This is to raise us as stepmothers! ”

"That's right, you obviously don't treat us as your own!"

"Alas...... I thought that the first engineer regiment was different from other troops, but I didn't expect it to be this virtue! ”

……

To be honest, Meng Lezeng also felt a little awkward at this time.

This is not because he is afraid of death and does not dare to face the devils, but also because the more than 2,000 brothers in the fourth battalion are the same...... If they are afraid of death, they will not take the initiative to stay and fight devils.

The reason why Meng Lezeng felt awkward in his heart. It was because he felt that the fourth battalion, which was mostly recruits, should not be sent to the front line at this time. As we all know, the recruit unit should have a process of adaptation, that is, first see how the veteran unit fights, or fight a few small battles, and gradually increase the combat intensity as the combat experience becomes more and more abundant, or the new recruits can also be supplemented to the veteran unit as supplementary soldiers, so that the casualty rate of the recruits can also be reduced and the limited resources can be better utilized.

But now......

However, Meng Lezeng still chose to believe in the engineering regiment, and at the same time believed that Wang Mazi was not that kind of person.

So Meng Lezeng said to the soldiers: "Brothers, there may be a reason for the upper peak to arrange this way. Think about it. If the soldiers of the Engineer Regiment were the same as other troops, why didn't they rob them during Lashio? It was much more convenient to snatch supplies from Lashio, and the first regiment of engineers was full of cars and tanks, and they could be sent home immediately after grabbing a bunch of valuable things. Why did they go to Myitkyina to rob this place? Isn't this full of food?! ”

"Camp Commander Meng is right!" Gao Yushu also persuaded: "So, this regiment of engineers went to the railway station to grab supplies, most of them were not for themselves, but for the survival of the entire army and even all the expeditionary forces." You think. The way back to China has been cut off, if there is no such material, then what will we eat and what will we take in the future? So...... Let's not live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Execute the order! ”

The soldiers of the fourth battalion were right when they thought about it, they couldn't go back, and they were calm when they thought about it.

Therefore, it is important for a unit to have several competent leaders or cadres, who will make the right choices to move the troops in the right direction at critical times, including the ideological tendencies of the soldiers.

The engineering regiment vigorously launched the work of evacuating materials.

The engineering regiment, which has a large number of tanks, armored vehicles and automobiles, is indeed very efficient when it comes to doing these things.

The gate of the railway station was not wide enough to prevent cars from entering and exiting, and several tanks rumbled up and pushed the fence down, opening a road in all directions. Then the cars and armored vehicles drove in one by one, and then transported the supplies out one by one and dispersed them to various warehouses.

Among them, the large amount of arms is very troublesome...... If it's food or something, you can use the warehouse left by the British army or find a large building as a warehouse, even if the building is blown down and the grain is dug up, you can still eat it.

Munitions is different, most of the warehouses of the British army are not prepared for air defense...... The British were afraid that they would never dream that they would be beaten one day, so the warehouses were all ordinary bungalows, and if the munitions were stored in the warehouse, a bomb might be all gone.

But fortunately, Zhang Chi was very familiar with Myitkyina, and knew that there was a passage about a kilometer long a few miles north of the railway station, so things became simple, what kind of ammunition and artillery were all loaded onto a train, and the train was pulled directly into the tunnel and then unloaded.

But I didn't expect that there was so much ammunition that I couldn't even fit the way...... Not long ago, in order to ensure the operation of the Anglo-Indian division and the Anglo-Burmese division, the British even transported arms from India to Burma, and the arms were also piled up at the Myitkyina railway station, so the arms, gasoline and the like can be described by the word "piled up".

Later, the soldiers could only disperse the arms into the jungle outside the city, first use the woods to hide them, and then dig bomb shelters to hide them when they have time.

The Corps of Engineers was busy with cars and trains for most of the night, but there were still a large number of supplies that could not be evacuated...... The engineering regiment consisted of just over a thousand people, and although there were cars and armored vehicles, there was a serious shortage of labor to carry them.

In the end, Zhang Chi found a loudspeaker in the train station and moved it to the armored car, shouting in Burmese while driving on the street: "Requisition labor, pay each person a bag of rice!" Location: Train station ......"

As the saying goes, there must be brave men under the heavy reward, it is now the war, although the war has not been fought for long, but the price of rice has begun to soar, you only need to go to the train station to make some efforts to earn a bag of rice, that is a big bargain, so no one cares whether the Chinese army is an enemy or not. It didn't take long for a large number of laborers to help with the shipment, which quickly made a big leap forward, and finally evacuated all the supplies at the station before dawn.
