In March 43, the 114th Regiment defeated the invading Japanese invaders in one fell swoop at the "Ghost Gate Pass" pass, and then quickly advanced to the Tangjiaka and Karaka lines to deploy defenses, and in early April, it again defeated the counterattack of the 56th Wing of the Japanese invaders, forming a confrontation with the enemy across the Nanyang River.

Of course, the Japanese invaders would not rest on their laurels and constantly sent small forces across the river to harass them.

For months afterward, gunfire rang out almost every day in the jungle on the east bank of the Nanyang River.

In mid-May, the rainy season arrived as scheduled, and the jungles of northern Myanmar became a swamped country, and the soldiers of the 114th Regiment who were stuck on the east bank of the Nanyang River were cut off from supplies, and could only survive by airdrops.

It was not until the end of June that the 112th Regiment was ordered to arrive to take over the defense, and the officers and men of the 114th Regiment were able to return to the Ledo Military Region to rest and recuperate.

At this time, Ledo was also raining heavily, and it was incessant all day long, so the training of various departments had to be reduced, and the soldiers who stayed behind were also able to rest.

After the 114th Regiment returned, their camp became unprecedentedly lively, and the officers and men of the rest of the units took advantage of their leisure to run to the 114th Regiment, mostly asking them about the situation of fighting on the front line.

This is not because the soldiers of the rest of the departments are too curious, but the current team has changed guns, and they have not yet had the opportunity to go to the front line to show their skills...... This is like the swordsman who "sharpened a sword for ten years, but never tried the blade", itching in his heart!

Of course, Li Siwei is not itching in his heart, because he has always understood that as long as there is a war, there will be brothers who will die!

In his spare time, he prefers to accompany his two daughters and Lele.

He didn't know how long he would be able to stay with them, but he would stay with them whenever he had the chance, so ...... Even if one day, I can no longer accompany them, I will have fewer regrets!

Lele is not as quiet as Qiansheng, but he prefers to laugh, no matter where Li Siwei takes him or who he meets, he will laugh, his little eyes are slightly squinted, and his fat little face seems to have a flower, pure and brilliant.

Sometimes, Li Siwei thinks: It seems that only the name Lele is suitable for him!

The brothers in the regiment also like this baby, and the female soldiers of the health team hold and pet him like a baby...... There's no kid who doesn't love to laugh!

What's more, Lele is still a child who can't cry if anyone holds it!

"Bang...... Snap ......"

Dense raindrops crashed against the tent, and a hint of wet smell poured through the curtain into the tent.

The lights in the tent were dim, Ning Rou and Wu Ruolan sat at the dining table reading the letters they received in the afternoon, and Li Siwei accompanied Lele on the bed.

The little guy slept enough during the day, and he didn't feel sleepy at night, looking at Li Siwei with dark eyes, Li Siwei smiled at him, he laughed along, Li Siwei made a grimace, he would show a blank look, and then he would still smile...... Never get tired of it.

"Lele,"

Seeing his cute appearance, Li Siwei couldn't help but stretch out his hand and twist his little hand, and put his big face in front of his little face, "Come on, ...... like this."

As he spoke, Li Siwei gently closed his eyes.

Looking at Li Siwei's appearance, Lele's little face showed a blank look again, hesitated for a while, and gently closed his little eyes.

After a while, Li Siwei's eyes opened a slit slightly, and when he put his ear to Lele's little face and listened, he heard a slight snoring, and immediately smiled, gently covered him with a blanket, and carefully slipped out of bed.

I just received a letter from home today, and Li Siwei also wanted to write a reply as soon as possible, so he had to put the little guy to sleep first.

Li Siwei walked to the table gently, but saw that the two women were holding the letter and reading it seriously, so he found a pen and paper and prepared to write the letter, just set up a posture, but saw Ning Rou suddenly raised her head and looked at herself, with a hesitant expression, "Siwei, you say...... When will we be able to return home? ”

Hearing this, Wu Ruolan also raised her head and looked at Li Siwei.

"Uh......"

Li Siwei was stunned for a moment, and forced a smile, "It's almost there!" As soon as the rainy season is over, the counteroffensive will begin...... When the time comes, our army will definitely be overwhelmed, fighting all the way to Myitkyina, Bamo and Lashio, and when the time comes, we will be able to return to China......"

"Liar!"

Wu Ruolan glanced at Li Siwei and looked gloomy, "There is Mandalay, and Yangon...... I don't know when I'll be able to go back! ”

"yes!"

Ning Rou also sighed gloomily, "I'm afraid...... When I go back, the baby won't know me anymore......"

"No!"

Li Siwei hurriedly comforted softly, "Didn't Qiansheng and An An write another letter?" ”

"Look,"

Before Ning Rou could speak, Wu Ruolan handed the letter in her hand to Li Siwei and complained, "What is written in this letter...... It's pretty much the same as last time I wrote it......"

"yes!"

Ning Rou also showed a wry smile, "The baby can't find anything to tell us!" ”

Li Siwei was stunned for a moment, and silently accepted the letter, but there was a trace of bitterness in his heart.

Qiansheng and An An's current age is the time when they need to be accompanied by their parents, but ......

No matter what reason the soldiers went to the battlefield, no matter how bravely they fought on the battlefield, no matter what hardships they endured, how many honors they reaped, and how many humiliations they carried...... Returning home victorious as soon as possible is the dream of all of them! The parents, wives and children at home are the concerns they can never let go!

The rain kept falling, as if there was no end, just like the soldiers' concern for home.

The rain in northern Myanmar is still falling, but the soldiers of the 112th Regiment stationed on the front line of Thangka and Karaka have not flinched, and they still endure hunger and stick to the jungle, just to make the construction of the Sino-Indian highway go smoothly; At the construction site of the China-India Highway, Chinese sappers and laborers are still braving the heavy rain to move forward, and even though people continue to lose their lives due to flash floods and landslides, the road construction army still does not stop advancing.

Everyone is holding on, because they want to fight back to Myanmar and their motherland as soon as possible...... Only by beating away the little devils can they go home, and it is the persistent and deep love for home and family in their hearts that supports them!

It is the desire for stability and peace that supports them, supports thousands of soldiers fighting on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, supports tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians who resist Japan, and makes them sacrifice and dedicate themselves to the great cause of the War of Resistance one after another!

It is their sacrifice and dedication that let the world see China's efforts in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, let the world realize China's great role in striving for world peace, they let the world re-understand this ancient oriental country that has been weak for a hundred years, and it is they who let China win the respect of the world again!

On October 9, 42, the British and American governments notified China of their willingness to abolish consular jurisdiction and other unequal privileges (Hong Kong and Kowloon were leased).

On January 11, 43, after three months of negotiations, China, the United States, and Britain signed a new treaty of equality between China and the United States and China and Britain in Washington and Chongqing, respectively.

In May 43, the U.S. Congress held a hearing on the Chinese Exclusion Act, and then passed a resolution to repeal the Chinese Exclusion Act.

At the beginning of June 43, US President Franklin D. Roosevelt expressed to the Nationalist Government his willingness to hold talks with Churchill and Stalin...... At this point, China nominally became one of the "four powers" alongside Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union.

Just before the meeting was finalized, the rainy season in northern Myanmar ended, and the China-India Highway had advanced to the Nanyang River, and it continued to advance steadily in the direction of New Pingyang.

At the same time, the 1st Independent Tank Battalion, the 12th Heavy Artillery Regiment, the 5th Mountain Artillery Regiment, the Heavy Mortar Regiment, the 6th Motor Transport Regiment, the Anti-aircraft Machine Gun Battalion, the Transport Capacity Transport Regiment, and other units directly under the Indian Army that had completed training in Ramgarh also arrived in Ledo one after another.

On 10 October, Major General Patno telegraphed the 112th Regiment stationed at Tangjiaka and Karaka to "attack and advance in the direction of Sinpyeongyang, the Dalong River, and the Tanai River, and to occupy important places such as Ha Lao Village, Yongbyon, Yubang, Sinpyongyang, Wananguan, and Daluo before 1 November, so as to achieve the goal of covering the construction of roads, building airfields, and setting up advance bases in Sinpyeongyang......

After receiving the order, the commander of the 112th Regiment, Chen Mingren, immediately made arrangements, and the whole regiment attacked from its current position on the 14th: with the 3rd Battalion as the right column, it advanced from Karaka to Daluo; With the second battalion as the left column, it attacked from Tangjiaka to the old village; With the 1st Battalion and the troops directly under the regimental headquarters as the central column, it attacked and advanced from Tangjiaka to the direction of Xin Binh Yang, Yongbyon, and Yu Bangjia (also known as Yu Bang......

However, the war did not go well.

On 10 November, the right column was surrounded by the main force of the 55th Wing of the Japanese invaders after two important locations, Liankwananguan and Lajiasu.

On the same day, after the left column captured Xialao Village, it was also besieged by the Japanese invaders.

On 29 October, the central column of the 112th Regiment captured Xinpingyang in one fell swoop, captured Keninggansekan on 30 October, and revisited Keningbian on 2 November, but when the first battalion attacked Bangjia, it was stubbornly resisted by the Japanese invaders, and it was repeatedly defeated, and finally on the 22nd, it was surrounded by the 56th Wing and the 55th Wing of the Japanese invaders who rushed to help on the periphery of Yu Bangjia, and fell into a bitter battle.

The next day, the heads of state of China, Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union began a three-day meeting in Cairo, at which the heads of state discussed the strategy of counterattacking Japan and the arrangements for the post-war international situation, formulated a strategy for the allied forces to cooperate in counterattacking Burma and a plan for aiding China, and issued the Cairo Declaration after the meeting, demanding that Japan surrender unconditionally, return all the land it had occupied, and shape a new situation in East Asia after the war.

At this point, China's identity as a "big four" was clearly established.

At this time, in northern Hunan and northern Burma, in the frontal and behind the vast anti-Japanese battlefields, those soldiers who had made efforts for this were still fighting against the Japanese invaders.

The War of Resistance has ushered in a turning point, but it has not yet achieved a final victory!

China has gotten rid of the image of weakness, but it is not really rich and strong!

Therefore, they will also fight, as the slogan can be seen everywhere in the Lambgar training camp and in the Ledo Military Region, "The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work!" ”

After the Cairo meeting, Mrs. Song, who accompanied the chairman to the meeting, went to Ledo in person, and quickly flew back to Chongqing after learning about the combat situation in the Hukang River Valley.

On 8 December, General Stilwell, who was in Chongqing, returned to Leido and immediately issued an order for reinforcements, and Commander Sun, who had been blocked in Leido by Major General Patno under various pretexts, quickly took the new 38th Division to reinforce the 112th Regiment.

More than 10 days later, the newly formed 22nd Division also received an order to open up, and with the 65th Regiment as the vanguard force, it entered the Savage Mountain and went straight to the battlefield in the Hukang River Valley.

As they marched on the newly built highway stationed in India, the officers and men of the newly formed 22nd Division were in mixed moods, but their steps were firm.

This will be a shame!
