Chapter 6 Confluence

God didn't seem to be optimistic about Tang Cheng's arrival, and he rode all the way to the territory of the expeditionary force on the outskirts of Myitkyina, and the drizzle in the sky had turned into a pouring rain, and the mud under his feet made Tang Cheng and the others, who were originally full of confidence, feel lonely for no reason. Although the expeditionary force had swept away all the Japanese positions on the periphery of Myitkyina, Myitkyina was still firmly under the control of the Japanese army.

"Password!" A soldier hiding under a tree to take shelter from the rain appeared in Tang Cheng and them, and while leveling the rifle in his hand, he shouted at Tang Cheng and them. He had already asked the driver who sent them over before, and Tang Cheng knew that the front was the station of Mike's newly formed commando team, so Tang Cheng raised the carbine in his hand to the sky, and motioned to Hou San and the others behind him to point the muzzle of the gun.

"Flash!" Tan Fei, who already knew the password, shouted loudly first.

"Thunder!" The soldier who was leaning under the tree came over and waved at Tang Cheng. "I know you!" Waiting for Tang Cheng to step forward, the soldier who was still flat in his hand glanced at Tang Cheng, and shouted as if he saw an acquaintance, "You are the commander of Tang Cheng in the direct company, you may have forgotten it, when the Japanese army attacked Leduo Town, we were ordered to rush over from the railway station to support you, but by the time we felt it, you had already repelled the Japanese army." ”

Tang Cheng frowned and looked at the other party carefully, and couldn't help nodding and laughing, "I remembered when you said that, it turned out to be you, I remembered, your surname is Lu, your name is Lu Dashan, and you were escorting a batch of supplies to the Leduo Railway Station at that time." Lu Dashan looked very happy to be recognized by Tang Cheng, and when he bragged about himself with his acquaintance, the Ledo River Resistance Battle was the only one who could say it.

After a few words of greeting with Lu Dashan, Tang Cheng and his party continued to walk towards the village, and it could be seen that the defense here was very tight, because there were still many sentinels at the entrance of the village. Tang Cheng explained his identity to the sentinels and was allowed to enter the village only after confirming it again. "God, Don, why are you here?" As soon as they entered the village, an American soldier came across and waved at them, shouting loudly. Tang Cheng followed the sound and looked at it, this guy who was waving at him actually knew him, although the intersection was not deep, but the other party was also a military instructor who had been in the direct company for a few days.

"Oh, Lenny, I finally see you!" Tang Cheng stepped forward quickly and hugged the smiling Lenny, "You must know how much I missed you the night before!" Several U.S. military instructors who had been in the direct company appeared behind the tree and just shook hands with Tang Cheng and left in a hurry, only Lenny was still standing beside Tang Cheng and did not leave.

"Lenny, what's wrong? I see how they are in such a hurry? Is it that the war ahead is not going well? Looking at the backs of those who had left, Tang Cheng was very puzzled and asked Lenny beside him, this goods was a bag to inquire when he was in Lieduo, but he knew a lot of gossip.

Ranny didn't want to say it, but since Tang Cheng had already asked, he had no choice but to sigh lightly and say, "Although we have cleared all the outlying positions in Myitkyina, the Japanese army is still firmly in control of tens of thousands of civilians in Myitkyina, and the command wants to attack Myitkyina, but it doesn't want to hurt innocents, so the offensive has been temporarily stopped." The damned Japanese seized this opportunity and attacked our troops on the outskirts of Myitkyina, and I heard that the Mai detachment had also been attacked by the Japanese in succession, and many soldiers were killed and wounded. ”

Tang Cheng looked at Lenny with a surprised face, "Don't you have countermeasures?" Whether it's setting up minefields or traps, you can't just watch the Japanese come and attack, right? Tang Cheng's rhetorical question made Lenny very speechless, if the command really adopted these opinions, it would not have happened one after another that the peripheral troops were attacked by the Japanese army. The same construction as Tang Cheng has been mentioned a long time ago, but the momentum of the offensive has already confused the staff officers of the headquarters, and these construction measures have not been adopted at all.

"Damn" Tang Cheng, who learned the truth, couldn't help but curse secretly, and then went to Mike's temporary residence under the leadership of Lenny. Mike is also much thinner than when he left Xinpingyang, and his sunken eye sockets make Mike look like a big smoker, especially the beard on his face and the smell of sweat on his body have been laughed at for a long time by Tang Cheng, who has been reunited for a long time.

"Don, you're finally here, you're here, I'm better. If you don't show up, I'm going to go to the Japanese army and post a search notice. The sudden appearance of Tang Cheng and his party made Mike very happy, and Mike, who was full of guilt, hugged Tang Cheng tightly, and left Xinpingyang to form a commando, Mike knew that he was really not the one who was the commander, but fortunately, the commando team was not performing any important tasks, otherwise the entire commando team might have been erased from the sequence of the expeditionary force.

"Uncle Mack, me too, seeing that you are now able-bodied and able to speak and jump, there is nothing better than this!" Tang Cheng stretched out his hand and patted Mike on the back, so as to give Mike more support, and it could be seen that Mike's life was not easy. The badly injured dice were carried out on a stretcher, and the sullen rock dragon was also called, and everyone soon merged together again. Everyone has a great desire to have their own brothers by their side and to be able to fight with them, so that they will not seem lonely in their hearts.

After asking clearly that the injuries of the dice were not very severe, Tang Cheng finally put his mind at ease, but for the scouts who had died in battle under Yanlong, Tang Cheng could only express deep regret, when they chose to rush to Meng Guan, Tang Cheng had already told them to be more careful on the battlefield. After chatting with Mike deeply, Tang Cheng knew how sad Mike's newly formed commando team had become, the original 300-person commando team was now less than 100 people left, and among the remaining 100 people, there were more than 20 people brought by Dice and Yanlong from Xinpingyang.

"You are also enough, just a reconnaissance mission, you can kill more than half of the casualties, hard work you are just a commando commander, if you teach you to command the entire expeditionary force, maybe we will be chased into the woods of Savage Mountain by the Japanese army again." Seeing that the people he was worried about were all fine, Tang Cheng made a little more fun when he talked to Mike, but Mike's face was not very good-looking.

The two were talking in a low voice, when a muddy herald came in and handed Lenny an order. After reading it, Lanny handed it to Mike, and Mike read it before passing it to Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng took a cursory look at the order, reached out and patted Mike's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, it's just a small thing, leave it to me, you can stay at ease and wait for our good news." ”

Tang Cheng returned the order to Mike, nodded at Hou San, who was looking at him, and then walked over to the others who were talking nonsense there, "Guys, we have work to do, there are tasks assigned from above, let's all go over." Tang Cheng beckoned the people he had brought to summon them. Now Mike is the supreme commander of the commando, and with Mike's consent, Tang Cheng's transgression is justified, in other words, Tang Cheng now orders Lenny, who is standing next to Mike, and Lenny, who is a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army, must also unconditionally obey Tang Cheng's orders.

"The order given from above was not very difficult to complete, and the Japanese army continuously attacked our army's defense line, causing great casualties to our troops on the defense line. The Japanese have gone crazy, so I hope that we will pay tribute to the Japanese army once tonight, and it is better to make the noise as loud as possible, I think, this should be our forte, right? Tang Cheng looked around at Hou San and them with a smile in his eyes, fighting black guns and throwing sticks is the specialty of the direct company, and besides, this mission is carried out with the cooperation of many expeditionary troops, Tang Cheng is not worried at all that there will be an unfavorable situation at that time.

The map had been spread out on the table, and Lenny had taken Tan Fei and them to get the heavy weapons they needed for tonight, and only Tang Cheng and the others were left in Mike's room to deduce tonight's night attack. Although the expeditionary force had cleared almost all the Japanese positions on the periphery of Myitkyina, after the frantic counterattack of the Japanese army with no casualties, the Japanese army finally recaptured a position on the defensive line northwest of Myitkyina.

"I'll start here tonight, the map has already marked that the troops of the 38th Division are stationed here, I met with their division commander Sun Liren when I was in Xinpingyang, and it should be easier to cooperate with them." Ignoring Mike's objections, Tang Cheng insisted on avoiding the defense line of the American detachment, and decided to surprise the Japanese army from the defense line of the 38th Division.

"Night raids are all about fast fighting, fast forward, and fast retreat, so don't bring big guys like the M2 heavy machine gun, you don't have to add to everyone's burden and slow down the speed. Prepare us as many submachine guns and bazookas, as well as grenades and explosives or something, and it would be better to get some mines. In response to Tang Cheng's request, Mike just nodded again and again, and promised to prepare as many weapons and ammunition as possible for Tang Cheng and them.

As the main force of tonight's assault, Tang Cheng decided to bring only the 60 men he brought from Xinpingyang, and strongly requested that Lanny, who participated in the night attack, and more than 30 American soldiers under his command be arranged by Tang Cheng on the defense line of the 38th Division to receive him as a reserve. "Lenny, you're the focus of tonight." Tang Cheng pretended to comfort this unknown Lenny, "The four M2 heavy machine guns will be handed over to you when the time comes, once the Japanese army pursues us, the heavy machine guns arranged in advance will be strange soldiers, strange soldiers, do you know?" ”
