"Haha, beard, you guy is still alive" As soon as the old cannon saw the beard, he pounced happily, and the two of them punched each other. Hu Zi's name is Wang Tianbao, a native of Hunan, and he and his uncle were also integrated into the new 22nd Division. When the expeditionary force retreated from Burma last year, he broke up with his uncle, who was one of the few veterans who had followed the military headquarters back to Ramgarh. When he was training, he was recruited into the 38th Regiment of the 112th Division, and now he is a small sergeant.

The 112th Regiment sent a battalion of soldiers this time, divided into three directions, and quietly entered the Hukang Valley for preliminary reconnaissance. Due to the attack of the 114th Regiment on the front line of Savage Mountain, regardless of casualties, the Japanese army had already been driven into the depths of the jungle and retreated into the hinterland of the Hukang Valley. The 112th Regiment has replaced the 114th Regiment, which suffered heavy casualties, and is ready to push the front to the front line of Xinpingyang and Yubang. The direction in which Wang Tianbao's company advanced was exactly where the advance battalion was located.

The initial march was extremely smooth, and the reconnaissance force of the 112th Regiment had many locals as guides. However, after entering the heart of the jungle, the two Burmese guides disappeared for no reason, and then they encountered a small group of Japanese troops, and fought fiercely for a long time, although with superior firepower, they defeated the Japanese army. But they were left with less than half of the intact soldiers, and a dozen wounded.

After walking aimlessly through the jungle for a few days, but not wanting to go to the edge of the jungle, he learned from the radio he carried that there was a lurking advance battalion nearby, and the bearded company commander was overjoyed. He sent Beard to take some of the veterans of the company out of the jungle and try to find the advance camp. Unexpectedly, they were blocked under the mountain by the big bulls.

Zhao Zhi was obviously not interested in treating the wounded, but pulled the company commander to ask questions, eager to understand the current battle situation. Wallace at the headquarters often used the radio to contact Zhao Zhi, but it was in the telecommunications room of the headquarters, and many things were not very clear. Zhao Zhi now wants to understand the current war so that he can find the best way for himself and his brothers, and he doesn't want to lead his brothers to be cannon fodder anymore. Guarding the camp will not be a common thing, there will always be people who will think of the advance camp, rather than letting those bigwigs use the advance camp to fill the pit as cannon fodder, it is better to take the initiative to fight for some easy tasks, so as to save the lives of the brothers and earn a good future for everyone.

Since the 114th Regiment cleared the Japanese troops on the front line of Savage Mountain, the paving of the road has been unusually smooth, and the 112th Regiment has replaced the exhausted 114th Regiment and began to advance into Savage Mountain. The valley camp where the advance battalion is located is just in the middle of Xinpingyang and Yubang, which can be attacked and defended, and it can also be directly penetrated into the direction of Mengguan with a small force, cutting off the road and communication between Xinpingyang, Yubang and Mengguan, and paving the way for the advance of the 112th Regiment. At this time, Zhao Zhi understood the true intention of the headquarters to set up a material supply point in the plains, and it seemed that the bigwigs in the headquarters were not eating dry food.

After settling the people of the 112th Regiment, Zhao Zhi pulled Uncle Guo and a few of them into the inner valley where the engineer company was stationed, which was heavily defended, and the people of the 112th Regiment could not enter. Zhao Zhi needs to discuss with everyone the way out of the advance battalion, looking at the current situation, a vicious battle with the Japanese army will start sooner or later. Since you don't want to be cannon fodder, you have to plan ahead.

"Let's talk about it, what should we do?" Zhao Zhi had a cigar in his mouth and kept pacing small square steps.

"What else can I do? Waiting for the order" The old cannon still had a big grinning face, and was glared at fiercely by Uncle Guo, and he shrank his neck and stopped making a sound.

"Can't wait, we take the initiative to ask for a mission" Uncle Guo pondered for a long time, tugging at a few whiskers on his chin, and said slowly. "Anyway, the 112th Regiment is going to explore the way, this is our specialty. Why don't we take the initiative to report to the headquarters, and say that the reconnaissance company of the 112th Regiment needs to rest, and we will go to explore the way, so that the commanders of the province will give us small shoes to wear."

"It's still not appropriate" Yan Shijun disagreed with Uncle Guo's words, "You think, the rainy season here is coming, the terrain in the Hukang Valley is already low, once the rain accumulates, how can we march?" Besides, can the 112th Regiment allow us to rob them of their credit? ”

As soon as Yan Shijun's words came out, everyone fell into silence, although Yan Shijun had not been in the advance camp for a long time, but what he said just now did have some truth. The march during the rainy season is indeed a big problem, and once the supply is cut off, the troops going forward will be in trouble. And looking at the 112th Regiment's series of forward reconnaissance, I don't think they would be willing to share the credit of the advance battalion.

Just when Zhao Zhi and the others were hiding in the inner valley to discuss the way out of the advance camp, they didn't know that there was also a group of people talking about Zhao Zhi and his advance camp.

"Beard, what do you think of their advance camp?" Before his body recovered, the pale company commander Zhao Dahai was lying on a wooden bed, surrounded by several veterans of the reconnaissance company and the remaining squad and platoon commanders. After they entered the valley camp, Zhao Zhi gave the best treatment, and even the barracks were selected and a few were vacated.

"It's hard to say, yesterday I had a few sips with a few old brothers from the new 22nd Division. Those guys were very tight-mouthed, and they didn't ask anything, so they said that their battalion commander Zhao Zhi originally seemed to be a quartermaster captain in the military headquarters of the 5th Army, and a major who had been promoted through meritorious service," said the beard, taking out the cigarettes from his pocket and distributing them to the guys around him.

"I don't think they're a big deal, aren't they just looking at the warehouse? Yesterday, when I was walking around, I heard the sound of explosions in the valley inside, and from time to time parachute boxes were sent in, and there must be a warehouse being built in there," Sergeant Wu Dazhang didn't care about the advance camp.

"That's it, that's it, when I went to take a bath, I also saw a group of American soldiers, looking at that body like a sapper" Zhao Dahai's orderly Li Qing agreed with Wu Dazhang's words.

"You all only look at the superficial things," Zhao Dahai struggled to sit up, "You have all forgotten the dozen or so people they ambushed on the mountain when we first came out of the jungle. Not to mention their equipment, it is their hidden skills, we can't compare. When they brought us back, they took shortcuts all the way, and they didn't want to waste time and energy at all, how can such a guy be an ordinary soldier"

"When I was drinking with them last night, I heard that they had just fought with the Japanese army a while ago, and there were many casualties. When I came back from drinking, I saw some guys coming back from outside with guns on their backs, as if they were recruits who had just been sent, "Beard remembered the reinforcements he met last night, and the old cannon told him that they were all recruits who had just arrived and were training.

"Not necessarily, I think they may be playing tricks, I saw them have female soldiers yesterday. You say, how can anyone bring female soldiers out to fight, not to mention that this place is not far from the Japanese defense line."

"Female soldiers?" Zhao Dahai was stunned, he remembered the situation of his company when they were marching in the jungle, how did these female soldiers in the advance camp live in the jungle?

"There are women in the camp, why don't I know" Zhao Xiaochuan, the leader of Zhao Dahai's platoon, was also his brother-in-law, rubbing Li Qing's head, and there was already a little lust in his triangular eyes. This Zhao Xiaochuan is good at everything, and he dares to fight hard, but he can't walk when he sees a woman. If he hadn't been in Kunming, he wouldn't have been sent to Myanmar for a show and his own commander.

"Xiaochuan, I can tell you, you can't move the female soldiers of the advance battalion. The first rule of their camp is not to harass female soldiers, if you commit it in their hands, I can't save you" The beard looked at Zhao Xiaochuan with a smile, this kid's temperament, he can still hold it by himself. The reconnaissance company is now a guest in the valley camp, if Zhao Xiaochuan really thinks about those female soldiers, one is not careful, something big will happen.

"Okay, okay, I know, look at you one by one" Seeing that everyone looked at themselves with deep sympathy, Zhao Xiaochuan's old face turned red, and he slammed the door and went out.

"Li Qing, you go and follow Xiaochuan, take a close look at him, come back and tell me immediately if you have something" Seeing his younger brother slamming the door and going out, Zhao Dahai hurriedly asked his orderlies to follow, for fear that he would cause something and not be able to end the scene.

"Beard, you have time, you are talking more to those old brothers of yours and probing their bottoms" Zhao Dahai, who was not well injured, told the others a few more words, and lay down and fell asleep again in a groggy state.

"Isn't it a woman? As for saying that about me? Zhao Xiaochuan, who went out, put his hands in his pockets, kicked a small pebble under his feet, and walked around the camp blindly. Zhao Zhi had already ordered that except for the inner valley where supplies were hoarded, the camp did not restrict the daily activities of the reconnaissance company, so Zhao Xiaochuan wandered around the camp at will, and the soldiers of the advance battalion did not care about him.

"Brother Xiaochuan, the company commander and the beard are just like that, don't you really want to talk about you" Li Qing followed Zhao Xiaochuan, and his mouth kept comforting. "Don't bother you, don't follow me" Zhao Xiaochuan turned his head sharply, scaring Li Qing for a moment. Zhao Xiaochuan is a short-tempered person, although he usually has a good hand on the soldiers under him, but if his temper comes up, he won't dare to ignore it, if anyone provokes him, he will dare to play with you with his sleeves.

Driving Li Qing away, Zhao Xiaochuan walked along the road towards the inner valley, he wanted to see what the inner valley was like that he didn't let them in. "Stop" A soldier came out of the fortifications of the valley and stopped Zhao Xiaochuan, "There is no warrant for the camp, you can't enter inside" Zhao Xiaochuan, who was angry, had long forgotten his brother's reminder, "Give Lao Tzu a dodge" Relying on his rank of second lieutenant, Zhao Xiaochuan pushed away the soldier who was blocking him and was about to break into the inner valley.
