When Wang Mazi and others rushed to the highway bridge, they couldn't help but be surprised when they saw corpses everywhere near the highway bridge, and couldn't help laughing after learning about what happened to Zhang Chi: "You kid, you are really a lucky general, and you will be allowed to encounter this kind of thing when you come back!" ”

"Captain! These corpses ...... "Zhang Chi looked at the messy highway.

"Buried it!" There was an adjutant suggestion.

"Huh! No need to bury it! Wang Mazi said with a smile: "Pile them on the side of the road, let those main forces take a good look, and see how the soldiers of our engineer regiment fight!" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Chi responded.

"And!" Zhang Chi was about to leave when he was stopped by Wang Mazi: "If the soldiers of the main force ask what is going on, you will tell them that our engineer regiment is fighting, and a platoon has completely annihilated this company!" ”

"Yes!"

"And!" Wang Mazi added: "When the 599 regiment passes by, you have to speak louder and more detailed, do you understand?" ”

"Got it!" Zhang Chi responded a little helplessly.

When he turned around, he thought to himself...... This is a war, and Wang Mazi seems to care more about the face of the engineer regiment.

But then again, Wang Mazi's behavior can't be said to be wrong, because the "face" thing, if it is put on an individual, it is a battle of will, but if it is put on the army, it will be an honor.

And how can an army fight the enemy to the end? Is it for the money? Is it for the ideal?

If it's for money, it's money and no life to spend; For the sake of ideals and space holes. The most direct and realistic thing is actually for the sake of honor and the honor of the troops.

Then Zhang Chi heard Wang Mazi ordering the adjutant again: "Report the deeds of the third platoon to the entire engineering regiment, and let them all take the third platoon as an example!" ”

"Yes!"

Things were as Wang Mazi expected, the main force was all curiously looking at a large pile of corpses on the side of the road when they passed the highway bridge, and even Dai Anlan was alarmed, and got out of the car to praise Zhang Chi and the others.

Zhang Chi is a little accustomed to this, but the cadres of his fellow villagers look very useful...... It's no wonder that they stayed in the engineering corps and were looked down upon for a long time, and now they can be regarded as turning over.

From the matter of the highway bridge, Dai Anlan, Wang Mazi and others also knew one thing, that is, the rear does not mean that it is safe, and there is a crisis of this highway bridge, it is very likely that there will be a second place, so they did not dare to be careless, and immediately invested more troops to take cars, armored vehicles and even tanks to the front as fast as possible to occupy important places to ensure the smooth flow of the road.

But nothing happened along the way, and when the car passed through the villages and towns along the way, Zhang Chi even saw that the shops were still open, the shelves were full of all kinds of items, and there were people drinking in the small restaurants. The golden temples and stupas of various postures stand in the clear sky, and the dusty dirt roads that cross the town are joyfully run by mule carts and ox carts.

In the fields on both sides of the road, large green gauze tents made of bamao and sugar cane stretch out as far as the eye can see, and a group of farmers gather in the open space in front of the stilt houses and betel nut trees to work and eat, and the old Burmese lady riding on the back of an elephant looks at the heavily armed armored vehicles passing by, and even grins and grins.

"What are they doing here?" Xiao Zhejiang asked suspiciously: "Don't they know that the Japanese are about to fight?" ”

Everyone was silent.

"Platoon commander!" Xiao Zhejiang said to Zhang Chi a little anxiously: "You know Burmese, you tell them...... The Japanese are coming, let them run away! ”

"Forget it!" The hooligan raised his head at Xiao Zhejiang: "What's the use of the platoon commander speaking Burmese?" Will they believe us? ”

"Then you have to try, how do you know if they believe it if you don't try......" Xiao Zhejiang was still a little unwilling: "Maybe they don't know at all!" ”

Ding Lun, who was sitting on the side, looked at Xiao Zhejiang's appearance and looked at Zhang Chi with some curiosity.

"He is worried that the Burmese people will be brutally killed by the Japanese!" Zhang Chi explained to Ding Lun: "He is in a hurry for me to inform the people to flee!" ”

Ding Lun's eyes couldn't help but flash a little surprise.

"Do you know how brutal the Japanese are?" Zhang Chi asked.

Ding Lun shook his head.

He was not to blame, Burma was a relatively closed place, and even if they heard anything, they would think that it was politically charged by the British to entrench their dominance.

So Zhang Chi didn't say much, because he knew that even if he counted the crimes of the Japanese for three days and three nights, he was afraid that Ding Lun would think that those were all lies he had weaved.

"Why do you believe the Japanese?" Zhang Chi asked: "Why do you believe that the Japanese will give you freedom and independence?" ”

......After a pause, Ding Lun replied: "Just as Myanmar is facing life and death, General 'Bomojo' on a white horse appears from the east and will come to save Burma." It's an old legend......"

"Hmm!" Zhang Chi didn't understand.

After thinking about it, he looked at Ding Lun in amazement: "This 'Bomojo' general appeared?" ”

Ding Lun nodded: "They are Japanese, and one of them is riding a white horse, and his name is 'Bomojo'." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Chi couldn't help but smile bitterly, and he didn't know what to say.

This is obviously the work of the Japanese, who sent a large number of plainclothes to infiltrate Burma to gather intelligence before the start of the war...... This legend is supposed to have been overheard by the Japanese while gathering intelligence, so they used it.

To do this is actually very simple, just find an officer to let him ride a white horse and call himself "Bomojo", and the first Japanese troops crossed the Thai-Burmese border into Burma, and Thailand is in the east of Burma, so it is seamless.

It is said that this deception is easy to see, but Burma is a country that believes in Buddhism, and the whole country believes in this system, coupled with the serious low level of education of the people, and the long-term dissatisfaction with the rule and oppression of the British, so the Japanese army easily won the trust and help of the Burmese people.

Later, Zhang Chi learned that the Burmese could not only use the words trust and help to describe the Japanese army, when the Japanese officer dressed as "Bomocho" appeared somewhere on a white horse, Burmese people on both sides of the road clasped their hands and greeted each other, full of joy and tears, and volunteered to give everything to "Bomojo" and his troops.

Alas! Thinking of this, Zhang Chi couldn't help but sigh, in this case, it would be strange for the Sino-British coalition to be undefeated.
