In the evening, Chen Fei ate Lao Zhangtou's canned beef and cabbage soup, and was about to go to Du Yuming's headquarters in front.

"Report, call from the chairman." Chen Fang came over and said.

"Say." Chen Fei said.

"Be sure to return to China with Du Bu." Chen Fang said.

"Gone?" Chen Fei said.

"It's gone." Chen Fang replied.

"Report, Chief Du is here." Wang Liang ran in and said.

"Please. Prepare the tea. Chen Fei said as he went out to greet him.

Du Yuming frowned, and several adjutant guards behind him also looked serious.

"Chief Du." Chen Fei saluted.

"Well, brother, let's talk alone." Du Yuming entered the headquarters as he spoke, everyone stayed outside the door, and Wang Liang hurriedly served tea and went out.

"Sit." Du Yuming said.

Chen Fei sat down.

"Brother, I know that it is not a wise choice to take the road of Savage Mountain, but this is the order of the principal, and besides, it is not necessarily the right thing to go to India." Du Yuming said.

"What does the sir?" Chen Fei was puzzled.

"I decided to listen to the principal, go to the savage mountain and return to China, Liao Yaoxiang of the 22nd division will open the way for us, and your division will protect my left wing, but don't get separated." Du Yuming looked at Chen Feidao.

Chen Fei thought for a while and said, "It is very difficult for the chief to walk on the Savage Mountain, I heard that it is not easy to walk there."

"The principal is very resolute, the 38th division Sun Liren insisted on disagreeing and disobeying the order, I am here to listen to your brother's thoughts now." Du Yuming said.

"I just wanted to go to your headquarters to talk about this, since the principal gave a death order, then I will listen to the principal, this is the material that my ministry needs." Chen Fei said as he put out a list on the table.

Du Yuming didn't look at it and said: "Okay, I'll rest assured, you can only figure out the way by yourself, now that the army is defeated, where will the materials come from." ”

"Okay, then I know, when will I act?" Chen Fei was not pretentious.

"Tomorrow at half past three in the morning, I threw all the heavy equipment, cars, tanks, and the troops moved forward lightly." Du Yuming said.

"Ah, all thrown? It's a shame. Chen Fei said bitterly.

"The old ones don't go, the new ones don't come, I can only comfort myself like this, what I'm worried about now is that the 200th Division is still leaning towards us, and it is estimated that it will not be able to enter the Savage Mountain with us, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will be separated." Du Yuming said.

"Why don't you explain to the 38th Division Sun and let them take it." Chen Fei said.

"If it weren't for the blind command of the headquarters and let the 200th Division run long distance between Ren'anqiang and Qiao Kebai, how could there be such a situation where the 200th Division would be separated from the military headquarters, Sun Liren, I don't want to deal with him." Du Yuming said.

The 200th Division rushed to Ren'anqiang and Qiao Kebo at that time, and only the newly formed 38th Division was covering the retreat of the British army, so angry that Dai Anlan and Du Yuming scolded Stilwell for not making sense.

"Why don't I go and talk to Master Sun?" Chen Fei said.

"No, I left the receiving troops behind, hoping they can follow." Du Yuming said.

Chen Fei nodded, the two chatted for a while, and Du Yuming got up and said goodbye.

"Order all the officers to come over for a meeting." Chen Fei shouted at Wang Liang at the door.

After a while, the officers with the commander came one after another, filling the headquarters to the brim.

"Listen carefully, our department will follow the 5th Army to retreat back to Savage Mountain in the early hours of tomorrow morning, everyone will talk about it, because this road is not easy to walk, and there are too many things to pay attention to." Chen Fei said.

"Since the division commander has decided, let me tell you, I emphasize one point, except for the reconnaissance battalion that opened the way, other troops must not be separated, each of you must manage your subordinates, there are too many wild beasts in this mountain, maybe they will be eaten in a blink of an eye, you can't drink raw water, you can't eat indiscriminately, and report immediately if you find a fever. Do you all understand? Zhu Guowen said.

"Sir, I'm from Yunnan, I've heard of Savage Mountain, and I said that there are savages here, will we ······?" A company commander said.

"If you touch him, kill him, what do you say, can the wild man still be invulnerable?" Zhao Dadao said.

"What nonsense, if we find a wild man, let's not do it first, if the wild man attacks us, we can fight back." Chen Fei said.

"Yes." The crowd replied in a loud voice.

"Come, let's let Staff Officer Zheng and Doctor Sun talk about it, and everyone will listen carefully, so that everyone can pay more attention." Chen Fei said again.

This meeting was held until more than ten o'clock, the officers went back to arrange the retreat, in the early morning, the independent division began to follow the 5th Army to the Savage Mountain, because it was a retreat and escape, the movement of the troops was still very fast, Myitkyina was just occupied by devils at this time, Sun Liren Division Commander proposed that the strength of four of the divisions recapture Myitkyina, along the Yunnan-Burma road to return to China, Du Yuming categorically refused. Arriving at Savage Mountain, Du Yuming abandoned chariots, artillery and other heavy weapons and began to cross Savage Mountain to the northwest.

The newly formed 38th Division completed its task two days after blocking the Japanese army in a warm bath, and Sun Liren personally picked up a submachine gun and led the soldiers to charge into battle, defeating the devils and blocking many times, not only did the troops not lose their equipment, but also rescued thousands of refugees and British and Indian stragglers to India.

Before crossing the Savage Mountain, Du Yuming gathered all the troops, he stood on a boulder, carried a bottle of red wine and said: "Soldiers of the Expeditionary Force, this bottle of red wine is the candied wine given to me by Chairman Jiang, I am not willing to drink it, today, we drink it, because we are crossing the Savage Mountain, each of us is facing the test of life and death, the Savage Mountain is not only our way to the land, but also our ghost gate to the casualties, I wish you good luck." ”

After Du Yuming finished speaking, he took a sip of red wine, handed the bottle to the adjutant, and walked into the Savage Mountain without looking back, and all the soldiers also walked into the mountain.

The independent division was on the left flank of the 5th Army, Chen Fei looked at the mountain in front of him, and his heart was beating a drum, he thought, this primeval forest was dark, and he was afraid that his decision was wrong.

"What's wrong with the division commander?" Zhu Guowen came up and said.

Chen Fei shook his head and said, "Let's go, go into the mountain!" ”

There are no roads at all in the primeval forest, which makes the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, Watermelon, bitter.

"What the fuck, what a mountain, I've only broken two machetes in one day." The commander of the third platoon of the first company scolded that his platoon was the most advanced unit of the independent division.

"Platoon commander, this is just the beginning, and there is still a long way to go." The second squad leader said. , he was born as an Orion, and he knew that this primeval forest could not be obtained in a day or two.

"No wonder even Zheng Lao Fart feels that this Savage Mountain is not a place for people to stay, and I don't know what the chairman thinks." Three rows of long roads.

"Whatever strange things you say, telling you to open a way, it's all your complaining." Watermelon happened to come up to take a look at this time, and he immediately said when he heard the words of the third platoon leader.

The third platoon commander scratched his scalp, smiled and said, "Battalion commander, don't dare next time, hehe······" Suddenly, an unknown small snake sprang out of the grass, bit three rows long, and immediately swam away again.

"Ah,! What is it? The third platoon leader cursed, and looked down to see that his feet were bleeding.

"What's wrong?" Watermelon Road, everyone immediately stepped forward to help the third platoon leader check the wound, just a few minutes later, the third platoon leader fell down with a blue face.

"Three platoon lengths, three platoon lengths,! Send it to Dr. Sun. Watermelon said anxiously.

At this time, the three platoon leaders were already foaming at the mouth, their whole body was convulsed, and in just a few seconds, the three platoon chiefs stopped breathing.

Everyone looks at me, I look at you, they are all stupid by the situation just now.

", bury it on the spot, be careful, you're acting as the leader of the third platoon." Watermelon pointed to the second squad leader.

"Yes." The second squad leader replied.

"This is the first lesson that Savage Mountain taught us, and it all cheered me up, if you want to return home alive, you have to be in a fighting state every fucking minute and every second, and then you will change shifts, and then change a platoon every three hours to clear the way." Watermelon Road.

"Yes." The three rows of warriors replied loudly.

Chen Fei was shocked when he heard the watermelon running over and said that a platoon commander had died, damn, it was only a day before he died again.

There were no more deaths for the next two days, but the weather was not beautiful, and it rained, and the rain was like venom. Early the next morning, the skin of many soldiers began to itch and red, and some began to erode, and Dr. Sun could only ask the soldiers to rub some alcohol on top of it, and no one in the doctor at the infirmary knew what was going on.

When camping at night, there was a sudden flash flood, which swallowed up a platoon of the independent division, so angry that Chen Fei didn't even have the strength to curse, so he could only order the troops to camp carefully, and never let this happen again.

After several days of marching, because the giant trees of the forest blocked the sun, the redness, swelling and erosion of many soldiers turned into abscesses, so that Dr. Sun was helpless and could only cut the flesh and disinfect it, but three soldiers still died for it.

The most headache for Chen Fei happened, the independent division actually lost contact with Du Yuming's troops, and all the radio stations of the independent division were damp and could not be used, which made Chen Fei feel frightened, and he could only rely on the feelings of a few hunters to advance to Yunnan with difficulty.

It has been more than ten days since the march in the Savage Mountain, and the reconnaissance battalion is miserable, and every soldier is in tatters, so he can only open the way and forget their duty to reconnoiter the enemy's situation.

"Da Da Da Da~" The second platoon of the third company that was opening the road was suddenly attacked by the devils.

"Pick up the enemy, pick up the enemy!" The leader of the second platoon shouted, and at the same time pulled out the box cannon and fired indiscriminately in all directions.

As soon as the watermelon heard the gunshots, he immediately rushed over, and the devils who attacked the second platoon were only a small team, they looked for the expeditionary force in the savage mountains, and launched an attack, there were countless squads like this in the savage mountains, they specialized in killing the lone expeditionary force soldiers, and when they encountered a large army, they immediately notified their main force to encircle and annihilate.

When Chen Fei heard the gunshot, he was taken aback, the devil also entered the Savage Mountain, he immediately ordered the troops to speed up, and at the same time ordered Zhao Liu to step forward to reinforce and get rid of the devil as soon as possible.

Thanks to Chen Fei's quick movements, he discovered the enemy's situation, counterattacked resolutely, and the troops moved quickly, and he immediately broke free from the harassment of a small group of devils.

The troops walked more than 10 miles in the primeval forest before they walked more than 50 miles, and after the reconnaissance battalion met the enemy, Chen Fei was afraid that the reconnaissance battalion would work too hard, so he changed the way for Zhao Liu's regiment.

Zhao Liu, the independent regiment of the independent division, held a special Burmese knife, and with the perseverance, decisiveness and perseverance unique to a soldier, he personally opened the way for the whole division.

Of course, the hardest part of the independent division was not only the independent regiment that opened the way, but also the engineer battalion, which marched during the day and tired soldiers at night had to build barracks out of banana leaves.

Every night, Chen Fei had to talk to several regiment leaders about what happened that day, although he could only walk a few miles a day.

"I'm running out of smoke, save some smoke." Lao Zhangtou said to Zhao Dadao.

"Lao Zhangtou, we are all fellow villagers in the Northeast, don't be so picky." Zhao Dadao said with a smile.

"Pick a fart, it's really almost gone, we've been in the nameless hill for a few days, and now it's been more than ten days, where did so much smoke come from, I see, we're all good to quit smoking." Lao Zhangtou also smiled.

"What should I do, my old Zhao doesn't smoke, but he can't walk the road." Zhao Dadao said.

"The last person is gone with three packs." Chen Fei said.

"It's okay, let's smoke it first." Zhao Dadao is authentic.

"Commander, we don't have a nurse today." Doctor Sun Jun said.

"Not a single soldier is missing from our regiment." Doctor Sun Jun said.

"Gone? What's going on? When? Chen Fei said.

"It was supposed to be during the lunch break, and the missing warrior was on guard, and then disappeared." Guo Liang said.

"Our missing nurse was also during the lunch break, and I don't know exactly how she disappeared, but I only found out when I was called just now." Doctor Sun Jun said.

"Will there be devils tailgating?" Zhu Guowen said.

"No, if there were devils, they would have found out a long time ago." The old dog said.

Everyone looked at Chen Fei, Chen Fei thought for a while and said: "In the future, no one can be left alone, your medical center will come to the middle of the team, and each unit cannot be a sentry, but must be in a group of three to maintain a high degree of vigilance." There is no need to set up a dark whistle, it is easy to be alone. ”

"Yes." Humane.

Survival in the wild, eating and sleeping in the open is the strength of the independent division, but this savage mountain is too weird, not to mention the high mountains and dense forests, but also choose the sky to cover the sun, no sunlight all day long, all kinds of poisonous snakes and beasts, elusive, people can't guard against it, the problem is that the beasts here are not afraid of people at all, some are not even afraid of fire, and it is too normal to lose one or two people.

"Hey, I really regret it now, it's better to be like Sun Liren, who will be outside, and the king's order will not be affected. Let's go around in this savage mountain now. Chen Fei sighed.

"Division, don't say this, if you go to India, maybe you will be surrounded and annihilated by devils halfway, and then again, even if you go to India, you will definitely be able to survive? Devils won't go to India? Zhao Dadao said.

"That is, if you don't listen to the chairman, then you will return to China in the future, we can be regarded as troops who don't obey orders, then the committee can give you a good look, maybe one day let me attack Wuhan, and the whole army will be wiped out." Lu Ziheng Road.

Chen Fei smiled bitterly and said, "It's good that you can understand, by the way, Lao Zhangtou, how much food is there?" Can you survive to Yunnan? ”

"Definitely not, at most half a month, we will run out of food, this mountain can go out in a month?" Old Zhang Tou said.

"Then why don't you tell me how to save food?" Chen Fei said.

"What can I do, hunting, digging wild vegetables, here is everywhere, even the danger point, then you have to fight, otherwise what can you do." Old Zhang Tou said.

"In this way, if we find a river, let's take a rest and replenish our strength, otherwise I'm afraid we won't be able to get out." Chen Fei said.

"Okay, when the time comes, I will organize the hunters of each regiment to hunt, and let the soldiers dig wild vegetables, no matter how dangerous it is, they must have something to eat." Zhu Guowen said.

Chen Fei nodded and said yes.

"We're all like Hanako now, we need to wash up." He Wenbin said.

Then there was another more than ten days of dark marching, there was no place for the independent division to repair, from Chen Fei to the soldiers, everyone was bearded, and everyone was very decadent.

In the past ten days, no less than ten soldiers have died, among them have just lay down and were sucked dry by leeches, some were bitten to death by poisonous snakes, one accidentally rolled into the ravine from the mountain, and there are innocent missing, every day when the meeting is held, it is bad news, even Zhao Dadao was injured, when he led the five regiments to open the way for the whole division, when he swung his knife to cut the giant vine, he was scratched by unknown thorns on the rattan, and his arms were long cuts. He was sent to Dr. Sun Jun and received more than a dozen stitches.

But there is finally good news, at the evening meeting, Zheng Lao Fart said to Chen Fei: "There will definitely be a river tomorrow." ”

Zheng Lao Fart's words, Chen Fei still believes it, otherwise this old horse gang who traveled south and north would even be wrong about this, it would be really a waste.

"It's been a month, so you have to fix it well, otherwise everyone will stink." He Wenbin said.

"Hahaha······" Zhao Dadao smiled, "Who doesn't stink now, it's your chief of staff?" ”

"Report to the division commander, I have met the 200 brothers who have been scattered, there are more than 100 people." A reconnaissance battalion soldier ran over.

"Really? Bring it on. Chen Fei hurriedly said.

He thought to himself that there was finally news of his brother's troops.

"They were all dying of hunger, saying that they hadn't eaten for almost six days, and that if they didn't touch us again, they would starve to death." Warrior Road.

"Oh, old man go and see. Give them something to eat, and find someone who can move. Chen Fei said.

"Yes." Lao Zhangtou replied and immediately got up to look.

"How did these 200 divisions run ahead of us?" Zhu Guowen said.

"Now there is no before and after, we must have spared a lot of wrongs, who is in front and who is behind is hard to say." Old steamed bun said.

"Also, before leaving, I was with Chief Du and them, and I lost contact in less than two days." Zhu Guowen said.

At this time, Lao Zhangtou came over with a lieutenant, and the lieutenant ate a can of food, and followed Lao Zhangtou as he interjected.

"Report to Division Commander Chen, Geng Fei, deputy company commander of the second company of the 200th Division's special service battalion, reports to you!" Geng Fei shouted.

"Oh, where is your division commander?" Chen Fei said.

"We ······ Our division commander died. Geng Fei choked up.

"What?" Chen Fei was shocked and immediately got up and said.

"What's going on? Make it clear. Zhu Guowen also got up and asked.

"Our division commander Dai was ambushed by devils in the Langke area on the southwest side of Lashio, shot in the chest and abdomen, and died within a few days, I entered the savage mountain with Dong Gan, the chief of staff of the division, and there were also troops led by Commander Zheng Tingjian to Ruili, through Nankan to Bazhen Highway, we couldn't keep up, so we could only turn around and chase Chief Du's troops, I didn't expect to be ambushed by devils more than ten days ago, Director Dong also died, I took 131 brothers, two days ago in the cave in front, I didn't eat or drink and could only wait for death, I didn't expect to meet Division Commander Chen······" Geng Fei said excitedly.

Chen Fei sat on the ground and froze. This time, Du Yuming really lost a fierce general.

"Old Zhangtou, take them down to rest, and you will follow us in the future." Zhu Guowen said.

"Yes." Geng Fei replied and followed Lao Zhangtou.

"The division commanders are all dead, what the hell is this fighting." Zhao Liu scolded angrily.

"Since entering Burma, the 200th Division has been playing as a striker every time. Tonggu, Ren'anqiang, and Mandalay made the headquarters of the expeditionary force go around, and in the end, they were defeated, what fucking bullshit! Even Sven's He Wenbin scolded angrily.

"What's the noise, go back to sleep!" Chen Fei said as he got up and went back to his camp. He thought to himself that the expeditionary force was hopelessly defeated, and his own troops were not either. Walking into the primeval forest, looking at the huge trees that are impermeable to the wind, I don't know when I will be able to get out of this predicament.
