Mike had been ordered to take over the company in Don City, and after replenishing the dozens of artillery and sappers he had brought with him from Ramgar, the company directly under their headquarters in Tang City already had a full 300 soldiers. The company commander of the direct company is still Tang Cheng, Mike is just an adviser to the company directly sent by the US military, Hou San is the deputy company commander of Tang Cheng, and several of them have become platoon commanders under Tang Cheng, although their military ranks are only second lieutenants, but there are a lot more soldiers under their hands.

Cai Jincheng took away the barracks supplies that Wallace had dumped, and Mike settled down in Ledo, waiting intently for the arrival of the Mai detachment. Tang Cheng was worried all day long, for fear that Cai Jincheng would be found out when he smuggled that batch of materials, but he didn't expect that before a week, Huang Hanju, who was carrying a batch of military supplies from Ramga again, secretly told Tang Cheng that the batch of materials that Cai Jincheng had transported had arrived in Kunming.

"How did he do it? Didn't you say that the border had been sealed by little devils a long time ago? Besides, that's three warehouses. Tang Cheng was very surprised by Cai Jincheng's methods, he was still secretly worried, but he didn't expect Cai Jincheng to get things back to Kunming a long time ago.

"Cats have cats, road mice, and rats, the water in this is deep, I don't know the specific things, anyway, Cai Jincheng has a lot of means, otherwise I wouldn't have pulled him into our plan." Huang Hanju didn't explain too much to Tang Cheng, just a few rough mentions, don't look at him and Cai Jincheng as close friends, but the detailed content may only be known to Cai Jincheng and Mike.

Anyway, the batch of things that lost their heads were finally safely transported to Kunming, and the stones that had been hanging in Tang Cheng's heart were finally able to land, and then they were waiting for the departure order from the headquarters. On the last day of February, Mike, who had been waiting, finally waited for the order from the headquarters, and the three detachments in front of the Mai detachment in the direction of Magao would arrive in Ledo tomorrow, and after a short rest of two days, Tang Cheng's direct company would act as a guide for the three detachments to enter the jungle of Savage Mountain and go south to Magao.

The order to set off finally came, and the barracks in Tangcheng finally began to get busy, the military doctor took his ambulances and began to prepare all kinds of medicines and insect repellent powder needed to enter the mountains and forests, and the anxious dice had already taken a team of scouts to the front station of the Ghost Gate Pass first, and the artillery and sappers brought by Mike were all taken away by Liu Shishi and temporarily served as the company's logistics porter. There are too many things to prepare for 300 people to enter the jungle, but fortunately, they have already walked through the jungle three times in Tangcheng, Hou San and Tan Fei all know what they need to prepare, and the military camp looks chaotic, but the speed of preparing things is really orderly.

As the troops were about to be mobilized, Mike, who had been only fishing for many days, finally came to his senses and began to ask the Lamgar headquarters for all kinds of urgently needed materials, and after asking for individual rations that were easy to carry, he asked for all kinds of medicines, and after asking for the medicines, he repeatedly confirmed the airdrop with the command headquarters, and finally asked for two Japanese-style grenadiers from Lamgar for those artillerymen according to Tang Cheng's requirements. He asked for everything, but he didn't ask Lambgar for ammunition supplies, and Mike thought that it would be better to bring more food and water than to march with heavy ammunition.

The three U.S. detachments that were sent to Ledo obviously didn't think so, and the U.S. soldiers who came to Ledo by train relied on their own tall men and horses, and actually brought a lot of mortars and light machine guns, which provoked Tan Fei, who followed Mike to pick up the station, and they laughed secretly. The jungle of Savage Mountain is full of rattan and bushes, and there will be mud on rainy days, and traveling in the jungle with so many heavy weapons is simply a way to get along with yourself.

Mike was smart enough not to alert the officers in command of the three detachments, and anyway, he looked at each other's eyes and took himself seriously, so Mike pretended not to know about these things. In the past few months in Ledo, Tang Cheng has always thought that he is living a fairy life, and after seeing the treatment enjoyed by these American soldiers, Tang Cheng was angry. Not only did these American soldiers have plenty of weapons and ammunition, they had an unlimited supply of cigarettes and beer, and they also had Coca-Cola.

Mike was very speechless about Tang Cheng, just for the sake of the American detachment to enjoy an unlimited supply of cigarettes, beer and Coke, Tang Cheng actually thought that he did not care enough about his direct company. "Nonsense, isn't it? Why do we smoke according to the supply? Why do they smoke casually? Do you know how much Coke sells for in Shanghai? Only when I'm sick or on my birthday does Robert buy me a bottle of Coke. ”

Tang Cheng mentioned Robert, and Mike knew what Tang Cheng was doing to lose his temper with himself, and dared to love Tang Cheng This is a childish nature, and what he thinks is what he wants. In order to continue to fight with Tang Cheng as well, Mike personally drove to the station of the American detachment and got a few boxes of Coke back for Tang Cheng. Coke is not a rare thing in the United States, but for more than ninety percent of Chinese, it is as rare as beer. Under the pretext that Hou San and they were not used to drinking Coke, Tang Cheng happily moved all the boxes of Coke to his room, and he planned to keep them and drink them slowly.

Stilwell gave the U.S. detachment two days to recuperate, and although Ledo's taverns had been crowded with U.S. soldiers for the past two days, it also gave them the opportunity to observe these U.S. soldiers up close. Drunken fights and molesting women, these actions that were not allowed by the expeditionary force troops, were all performed by these American soldiers in the small town of Ledo, if it were not for Wallace and they had been transferred, the three American detachments that were transported by train to Ledo might have been captured by the British military police at night.

Tang Cheng and the others, who looked at the American soldiers so unbearable, shook their heads secretly, no matter how much Mike guaranteed the courage and tenacity of the American soldiers, Tang Cheng was already disappointed in these guys covered in sweat. "Mike, I'm not saying they can't, you've seen with your own eyes how tough the Japanese soldiers are in the woods. The Japanese army didn't have the weapons and equipment they had, nor did they have unlimited beer and cigarettes, and they didn't drink coke, but they relied on the 38 rifles in their hands to shoot all the living creatures that dared to haunt the forest, do you really think these guys can get out of the forest alive? ”

Mike looked in the direction of Tang Cheng's finger, and happened to see a shirtless American soldier holding on to a tree and vomiting, and then under Mike's gaze, the bare-chested American soldier who vomited clean actually fell asleep with his vomit. "Mike, you should remind General Stilwell that the jungle of Savage Mountain is not their back garden, and that all those who despise this jungle have died in the woods, and that he should not have sent a group of people who don't know what to call them to death." Tang Cheng also knew that there were some things that Mike could not decide, but with such a group of people into the forest, he was afraid that he would drag down his subordinates at that time.

Mike was also very embarrassed, and after returning to the barracks, he sat alone in the room for a long time, and he wanted to remind Stilwell as Tang Cheng had said, but now Stilwell was so ambitious that he couldn't hear anyone say anything against him. Stilwell was bent on commanding his troops to counterattack Burma and then win a big victory, preferably driving the Burmese Japanese army into the sea in one fell swoop, so that he could deserve his title of famous general. As for how many people would die during this period, it was completely out of Stilwell's consideration, who had ever heard that there would be no death in war.

Mike had talked to the commander of the American army who commanded the three detachments, but the other party looked down on the Japanese army in his bones, and always thought that he would defeat the Japanese army with his new weapons, but some of the soldiers' shortcomings were not in their consideration. "Forget it, we're going to leave tomorrow anyway, no matter how much we say, it won't help, and then let the facts teach them something." Seeing that Mike returned in vain, Tang Cheng's heart felt better, at least he and Mike had worked hard, but these proud American soldiers didn't listen to persuasion.

"Tomorrow, we will set off for the south according to the orders of the headquarters, and the same arrangement as we made before, I and the third brother will each take half of the people. I took Wu Shan and them to the front to open the way, third brother, you took glasses and stones and followed the people who fell behind at the end, and the snipers of the dice were divided into two wings. Once you find that there is an abnormality in the forest, immediately use the walkie-talkie to contact, remember, we are only guides, only responsible for guiding these American soldiers to the south and out of the forest, our people try to refrain from clash with them. The night before departure, Tang Cheng not only recalled the dice that had already been released, but also called all his officers together for a meeting.

Tang Cheng had been telling his officers not to clash with the American army, although they were still a little unimpressed by the dice, they still nodded and promised to restrain their soldiers. "I just said that you don't want to clash with them, but I didn't say that you have to endure being bullied to the end. As long as there is no blood, I will allow you to fight back appropriately, but you are not allowed to make a big mess, and if it gets bigger, I will also have a lawsuit together. ”

Tang Cheng was determined to teach these invincible American soldiers a lesson in the woods, and Mike, who had been watching from the sidelines, never spoke, since he joined Huang Hanju's gold-making plan, he had been tied to Tang Cheng and them. Originally, Stilwell's follow-up plan was very unfair to Tang Cheng and them, and Mike was not obliged to be responsible for those American GIs, if he needed to worry, it was better to worry about his own and Tang Cheng's safety first.

Standing at the door of the barracks and looking in the direction of Ledo Town, the originally equally silent town was already full of people shouting horses and shouting, and there was no need to ask to know that it was those American soldiers who were making preparations before departure.
