"Throne!" The adjutant asked Du Yuming, who had a sad face: "What now?" Cars, tanks and other equipment can't get by! ”

Du Yuming thought about it, and spit out a few words from between his teeth: "Destroy the car and enter the mountain!" ”

"Throne ......"

"Execute the order!"

"Yes!"

When the soldiers heard this order, they could not help but be stunned, they were instilled from the first day of joining the army: "Soldiers should love their weapons as much as their own lives", especially the Fifth Army, which has tanks, armored vehicles, and heavy artillery in their hands that no other army has...... These equipment have always been their pride. But now, they have received an order to destroy and blow up these equipment with their own hands, who is not sad? Who would have the heart to do it?!

Soon there was such and such a riot in the ranks, and many soldiers could not think about it, and refused to give up their equipment to death, especially tank crews, and some soldiers even threatened to fight with whoever dared to blow up their tanks......

But the commander's order was: "If you don't blow it up, do you want to leave it to the Japanese?" ”

"Throne!" After a while, the adjutant walked up to Du Yuming and reported: "There is another problem, the tank armored car can be blown up, the car can be lost, but the wounded are ......"

This question stumped Du Yuming, you must know that what they are going to go is Savage Mountain, which is a primeval forest. The Burmese people of this savage mountain called it "Hukang River Valley", which means the place where the devil lives, before this Du Yuming has asked the Burmese people he can see along the way over and over again, and even promised them a lot of money to lead the way, but the answer he got was ...... There are no roads here, only man-eating devils.

So now, it is a question of whether able-bodied warriors can pass through this primeval forest, and how can they pass with the wounded?!

At this time, a wounded man on crutches squeezed up and reported to Du Yuming: "Military seat, you can go." We stay! ”

"Stay?" Du Yuming looked at the wounded man in front of him, it was his old subordinate, this old subordinate had been following him since the Battle of Songhu, and it had been nearly five years now.

"Yes, let's stay!" The wounded nodded: "Just leave us some gasoline!" ”

Looking at the resolute eyes of the wounded, Du Yuming realized what they were going to do.

He wanted to refuse, but as soon as the words of refusal reached his lips, he swallowed them back.

If you refuse, is there any other way? Can you give them a way out? If you can't, then you have to say yes!

So Du Yuming gritted his teeth and nodded heavily...... It was the most difficult decision he had made in his 20-year career, and there had never been a more complicated and sad time than at this moment.

The wounded didn't say anything more. He saluted Du Yuming and turned to leave.

Soon, the equipment and ammunition were loaded with explosives and fuses, the wounded poured gasoline on their bodies, and some had grenades in their arms to avoid being burned by the flames...... Everything is ready, just wait for Du Yuming to give the order.

However, at this moment, a voice shouted: "Stop! We are a regiment of sappers, we occupy Myitkyina! Stop......"

The sound was like a lightning bolt in the night, and in an instant it rekindled the hope in the hearts of the warriors.

"What? A regiment of sappers occupied Myitkyina? ”

"Our men have captured Myitkyina?"

"So we're saved!"

……

"Throne!" The adjutant said excitedly to Du Yuming: "Did you hear that? Our men have taken Myitkyina! ”

Du Yuming couldn't believe it was true. He immediately ordered: "Quickly, let the soldiers stop, and call the sappers up to ask for clarification!" ”

"Yes!" The adjutant simply responded.

As a result, the explosives were quickly removed, and the wounded, drenched in gasoline, wept with joy as if they were in a desperate situation.

It was Zhang Chi and his party who came. When he stepped forward, he looked at the explosives on the soldiers' dismantling tanks and artillery, as well as the rows of wounded on the side of the road who were ready to self-immolate, and he couldn't help but congratulate himself that he had finally arrived in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"Sir!" Zhang Chi saluted an officer with an anxious face and red eyes who was walking towards him. guess it should be Du Yuming, commander of the Fifth Army and deputy commander of the expeditionary force.

It was Du Yuming who came, he grabbed Zhang Chi's shoulders and asked, "What did you say?" You occupied Myitkyina? ”

"Yes, sir!" Zhang Chi replied: "We occupied Myitkyina two days ago before the Japanese army. And blocked several waves of Japanese attacks! ”

Zhang Chi's words immediately caused quite a stir among the soldiers.

"You're from the sapper regiment?" The adjutant asked from the side.

"Yes sir!" Zhang Chi replied: "I am Zhang Chi, the commander of the first engineer regiment, one battalion, one company!" ”

"It turns out that you are Zhang Chi!" Du Yuming couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he had seen the name Zhang Chi in the report, and knew that most of the reason why the engineer regiment was able to perform miraculous feats was the strategy of this very ordinary-looking soldier in front of him, so he glanced at Zhang Chi a few more times.

Then Du Yuming asked the most important question: "Is there any supply in Myitkyina?" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Chi replied: "It's only a lot more than Lashio, and we have evacuated the supplies in time!" There is food, there are weapons, there is ammunition, there is medicine! ”

"Wow!" It was like a gust of wind among the warriors, and the whole army was in a stir. But their performance was different, some were crying, some were laughing, and some couldn't help but come forward and hugged Zhang Chi and other soldiers of several engineer regiments to thank them.

Du Yuming stepped forward and held Zhang Chi's hand tightly, ignoring the dignity of his superiors and subordinates, and said movingly: "Thank you, brother, you have saved the lives of tens of thousands of people in our Fifth Army!"

"Throne!" Zhang Chi replied: "We are all Chinese, saving you is saving us." Without further ado, let's go back to Myitkyina! As soon as the sky is bright, it will not be good when the devil plane comes! ”

"Hmm!" Du Yuming nodded, then waved his big hand and shouted with full anger: "Brothers, let's kill back Myitkyina!" ”

"Yes!" The warriors replied one after another, and their mental state was completely similar to that of the team just now.

While marching towards Myitkyina, Zhang Chi looked back at a primeval forest pressed by black pressure in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion...... This time, the Fifth Army was finally saved, that is, the end of the Fifth Army's defeat in Savage Mountain will not be repeated.

Merely...... There are still some scattered troops who are afraid that they have already entered the wild mountains at this moment!

I hope these brothers can return to their motherland safely! (To be continued.) )

PS: With this chapter, I would like to pay tribute to all the officers and men of the Fifth Army. Before the Fifth Army entered the Savage Mountain, thousands of wounded who could not walk set themselves on fire and died, as later narrated by the survivors: every soldier who passed by the place where the wounded self-immolated could not help but kneel and kowtow to the wounded with tears.
