Less than two hours after Zhao Zhi and the others left, more than 100 Japanese soldiers rushed to the jungle where Suzuki and they had died, and the jungle was silent, and the sentry posts set up by the Japanese army seemed to have disappeared en masse. "Green" The undetermined Japanese army immediately launched a search, and finally found a large dirt pit under a nest of bushes, and in the pit was the bodies of the missing soldiers of the Kuroki and Suzuki squads.

"Bastard, bastard" Kodera Ichiro used his saber to cut down a tree in front of him, and the thick trunk of the bowl was already covered with knife marks, and it might be cut off in a few more strokes. At the feet of Kotera Ichiro were neatly lined up the corpses of 28 Japanese sentry posts, and the entire two infantry squads of Imperial soldiers were slaughtered with cold weapons in this way, which was simply a shame for his Koji squadron, a great shame.

Kojira's infantry squadron is subordinate to the Japanese 56th Division, and when they rushed to Myitkyina to support the 18th Division in early March, they were arranged here to guard against the expeditionary force troops that might infiltrate from Mong Gong. Kodera was a self-taught scholar who came out of the Japanese non-commissioned officer school, and he set up 12 sentry posts in the jungle in his defensive area, each of which was guarded by an infantry squad, and could fire freely if he found an enemy, and the nearby sentry posts would immediately support when they heard the gunshots.

But such a seemingly invulnerable defense was broken by someone with a cold weapon, and two of his infantry squads were killed at once, and a whole 28 people died in this way, but no trace of the enemy could be found. "Send a report to the headquarters, just say that the Koji squadron found a large number of Shina army activities in the mountains and forests on the north side of the defense area, and asked for pursuit, and asked to send other troops to take over the defense here" Koji finally cut down the tree with the last knife he swung hard, and he also made up his mind that he must pursue this Shina army.

The 300 Burmese troops were driven into the jungle by the small temple divided into small groups of 50 people, and their task was to find the traces left by the Chinese army and follow the traces to pursue them with the small temple squadron. These Burmese people who were transferred by the 18th Division are all local mountain people who live in the mountains and forests of their ancestors, and they are very familiar with the jungle, especially the jungle tracking, but they have chased out only a few miles, and there is already a Burmese team to determine the direction and general route of Zhao Zhi's departure.

"Is it all the way to the northeast?" The small temple that received the report from the Burmese was a little undecided, the north of Myitkyina was full of jungles and mountains, why did these Chinese troops have to run there, were they luring their own troops, they were going to ambush themselves in front? If not, then what will be their purpose? Xiao Temple's fingers unconsciously swiped on the map, and as he continued to move northeast, his fingers finally landed on Gaoligong Mountain, could it be that they were going to climb Gaoligong Mountain and return to China? Xiaoji smiled, these Chinese troops are really too self-sufficient, Gaoligong Mountain is still in the hands of the Japanese army, there are many defensive troops there, unless these Chinese troops can grow wings and fly over, otherwise they are killing themselves.

In fact, Xiaoji had already accurately analyzed Zhao Zhi's intentions, but he was too conceited and did not report this information to the command, he was still thinking that he would lead the troops to personally pursue this group of Chinese troops, and he didn't want to be ruined by other Japanese troops. It was Xiao Si's arrogance that gave Zhao Zhi and them a buffer time, and by the time Xiao Si received the order from the command to agree to his pursuit, Zhao Zhi and the others were already 40 miles away from Xiao Si's squadron.

Don't underestimate the distance of the 40-mile mountain road, in the jungle with dangerous mountains, if you want to get out of the 40-mile mountain road, you can't do it in a few hours, and you can't carry any heavy weapons, because the mountain road is too steep. Normally, the soldiers with backpacks on their backs are out of breath when they walk, and if they bring heavy weapons, they will have to wait to die of exhaustion. So the Japanese desperately pursuing in the rear carried only grenadiers, light machine guns and a small number of 60 mortars, and their most powerful heavy machine guns were left in the camp.

"How far is it?" Zhao Zhi held his waist and asked the goat breathlessly, the scouts who were moving forward had already found the water source in front, and Zhao Zhi decided to camp at the water source. The subordinate company had enough to eat for three days, but there was no water at all, and if they didn't replenish it, at least half of the soldiers would be dehydrated.

"It's almost there, and you'll be there after another mountain" The goat reached out and pulled Zhao Zhi's belt and pulled him to continue to set off. Zhao Zhi and the dogs are walking in the back, they are gathering the guys who have fallen behind because of dehydration and weakness, now is not the time when they walked the jungle, Zhao Zhi will never leave any brother, even if it is dead, he has to carry it back. Yan Shijun's voice came from the walkie-talkie, their previous team had already rushed to the water source and started to set up a camp, Zhao Zhi and they only needed another hour to rush to the camp to rest.

"Let's go, hold on for a while, and when we get to the camp, let the cook stew canned soup for us to drink, a big bowl per person" Zhao Zhi smiled and pulled up a soldier who was sitting on the side of the road resting. His military uniform had long been soaked with sweat, and there was a smell of sweat all over his body, but everyone was so virtuous, but no one disliked the smell of sweat on Zhao Zhi's body. The 400 reinforcements received in Leduo behind are indeed inferior to the 300 people received in Xinpingyang, Zhao Zhi's rear team has been divided into two parts at this time, the 300 people who walk in front are the 400 reinforcements that Zhao Zhi has just received in Leduo.

Zhao Zhi walked hard with the guys in the back team, and chased the small temple dozens of miles behind them very hard, at this time he really accepted the Burmese who were transferred, once these skinny Burmese got into the jungle, it was as familiar as returning home, everyone was agile, and scurrying between the jungle and vines was like walking on the ground. If it weren't for the fact that there were exactly 300 Burmese in Xiaosi, and if Xiaosi hadn't transferred them from the camp to search in the first place, then he would not have found Zhao Zhi's traces, let alone falling far behind them at this time.

Xiaosi's pursuing force was still at a distance from Zhao Zhi and them, so far that Ling Xiaosi couldn't see them in the telescope, and he was now only chasing with the traces found by the Burmese spearheads, so he had been falling behind the battalion under his direct command, and could not catch up with them. Another clever thing about Kodera was that he didn't pool all his forces together, and one of his Japanese squadrons was divided into three squads, each with 100 Burmese men in a zigzag pattern sneaking through the jungle. They were separated by no more than 200 meters from each other, and as long as one of the teams found the traces of the battalion directly under them, the other two teams would immediately surround and complete the combat intention of encircling and annihilating this group of Chinese troops.

Zhao Zhi didn't know that they were being pursued by the Japanese troops, and he also sent guard guard posts, but those guard posts were only placed for 2 miles, and it was impossible to find the Japanese troops dozens of miles away at such a distance in the mountains and forests, so the guys in the battalion directly thought that they had jumped out of the control of the Japanese army. When Zhao Zhi arrived at the camp, they had already cleared a large piece of open space with machetes, which was enough for all the people in the battalion to camp. Camping in the mountains and forests, the most important thing is the selection and cleaning of the camp, the ubiquitous poisonous insects are the biggest opponents of the campers, and the direct battalion relies on the insect repellent medicine issued by the US military and the homemade herbal powder in Langzhong, these two things are mixed together, and you have to hide from the poisonous insects.

When the rich man, who had always been good at calculation, was ordered to prepare supplies, he specially arranged for more than 30 soldiers to carry these medicinal powders, and the rich man would never forget the things that were scared by poisonous insects in the middle of the night in the jungle in the past. Next to the camp was a shallow stream, not too deep and not very large, but enough for the guys in the battalion to wash, and the guys who had exhausted the last drop of water on the way were now crowded on both sides of the stream, and were dipping their heads into the stream like cattle and sheep, gulping the stream into their stomachs.

The soldiers of the front team who arrived in advance and the more than 200 veterans around Zhao Zhi did not participate in the water drinking operation, because they knew that the water in the mountains and forests was best boiled before drinking, and they would not drink this water until they were sure that the source of the stream water was living water, and who knew if there would be anything in it that could kill people. When the expeditionary force retreated in 42, countless of their brothers died after drinking water from the mountains and forests, and they did not want to repeat the mistakes of the past.

A string of bullets was shot into the sky, and the hot bullet casings fell next to Zhao Zhi's military boots, and the submachine gun that was still smoking was held in Zhao Zhi's hand, "Are you all domestic animals?" Didn't the instructor tell you not to drink water and eat casually in the mountains and forests? The brethren in the front team are already preparing boiling water, so can't you just wait a little longer? The camp was quiet, Zhao Zhi's hoarse voice echoed in the camp, and the recruits lying by the stream held each other, they didn't know why their commander had such a big temper, didn't they drink water like this when they were in their hometown before?

"Are you all deaf? Didn't you hear what the chief said? I'm going to vomit all the water you've drunk, and now it's time to start it, and at once," the old cannon and Roger rushed to the creek with wooden sticks, and beat them up in the face at the guys who were still drinking with their heads down. It's just that these guys are experts in beating people, listening to the crackling of wooden sticks falling on the bodies of those soldiers, in fact, the old guns know the severity under their hands, and the actual power that falls on these guys is not very large, at most it is scary to watch

Compared with Zhao Zhi's warning shot, these guys seem to be more afraid of the old cannon and their wooden sticks, after being knocked over by the old cannon They knocked over a dozen guys, those disobedient guys shrank together like quails, and looked at the old cannon and them timidly. Finally someone started to put their fingers in their throats and vomit water, and with the first one there would be a second, and this kind of thing was like a chain reaction, until the mud by the stream was poured into mud by the clear water they spit out, and the old cannon let these guys go.

"You guys will be very dissatisfied, I don't care" The guys who were about to vomit out their intestines were full of resentment, they didn't dare to look at Zhao Zhi directly, but secretly stared at Zhao Zhi's back from time to time, but Zhao Zhi suddenly scolded these guys who didn't understand anything, "I just promised to take my brothers home, I don't want to force you to abide by the rules of the direct battalion, but the premise is that you can't drag down my other brothers." Don't worry, as soon as you pass Gaoligong Mountain, I will hand you over to the expeditionary force in western Yunnan, and when the time comes, you can do whatever you want, and the battalion under my direct command will no longer restrain you."

Zhao Zhi was obviously extremely disappointed in these guys, in his impression, even those veterans who usually looked bad deeds would act cautiously in an environment like the jungle, instead of being like these bastards in front of him, like some children who didn't understand anything. He Zhao Zhi is not a nanny, and the battalion directly under him is not a shelter, for the safety of other brothers, Zhao Zhi has to make a choice, he is ready to give up these guys who come later.

In the case of maintaining the firepower of the battalion directly under him, Zhao Zhi's ideal number is about 500 people, which means that he needs to eliminate nearly 300 people, for the expeditionary force troops far away in western Yunnan, 300 heavily armed soldiers are not comparable to the local troops with low combat effectiveness, Zhao Zhi feels that they will definitely not refuse Zhao Zhi's kindness. He's just in Burma right now, and if he can see the Nu River tomorrow, he'll get rid of all these guys now.

"I'm almost annoyed to death by these guys" Zhao Zhi took off his steel helmet and fell to the ground fiercely, I really don't know what the headquarters thinks, it will bring such a group of guys to the direct battalion, it is better for Zhao Zhi to select people in the supplementary troops of Ledo himself. It's good now, seeing that the manpower has doubled, but the actual situation is not the case, there is no ability but not subject to control, the physical fitness is not even as good as the supplementary soldiers from the country, the things in the jungle do not understand anything at all, when the veterans teach them, they don't have to listen, these people are simply useless.

Soon Zhao Zhi got the answer, because after Edward set up camp, he immediately set up a radio station to contact the headquarters and report the itinerary and location of the direct battalion, which is better with the headquarters, if they lose contact with the headquarters, they will cut off the airdrop of supplies to the direct battalion, and the direct battalion will become a lone army in the jungle, without supplies and no support.

"My God" just translated the telegram received, Edward asked Zhao Zhi to go to a secluded place with a solemn face, the content of the telegram sent by Wallace was too confidential and shocking, and it was best for him and Zhao Zhi to know it at present. "I'm going to kill the guy who made the plan, isn't that forcing us to die?" Zhao Zhi was furious, the telegram was tightly clenched into a paper ball by him, and his handsome face became extremely distorted, and his trembling body exuded bursts of murderous aura.
