In mid-July, two weeks have passed since the last mass assault. www.biquge.info In this way, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi spent their first semester in the military academy in an ordinary but not ordinary way. This semester, although they have also learned a lot of military skills and knowledge, in the words of captain Tang Huaiyuan, they can barely go to the battlefield now, of course, they are just cannon fodder.

Although the semester is over, the students of the Army Academy have heard the news that there will be no holiday this summer, and according to the coordination and decision of the General Staff Department and the academy, all the students will go to the field unit to experience the life of the army as soldiers, and to serve in the company for internship. Sure enough, when the meeting was held in the afternoon, Tang Huaiyuan, the captain of the 14th team, confirmed the news.

A few days later, on July 22, all 144 trainees of the 14th team stepped on the train and drove to their destination. In order to facilitate management, the academy arranged the cadets of a cadet corps in a field division, and what they were going to on this trip was the Third Infantry Division located in Chengdu.

As soon as the sky turned dark, a group of students wearing green summer clothes and red epaulettes, under the loud order of the captain Tang Huaiyuan, quickly assembled into a neat square in the square in front of the train station. The square team stood quietly at the entrance of the train station where the crowd was cathartic, as if a neat rock stood in the river formed by the flow of people. Many people who came and went in a hurry couldn't help but stop and point as they bypassed the sides of the queue.

Tang Huaiyuan ignored all the troubles of the outside world, and looked at Bai Chongxi, who was on duty on today's team, with a grim face, checking the number of people with each squad leader. For the young man in his team, Tang Huaiyuan is very satisfied.

"Comrade Captain, the whole team of students has been assembled, it should be one hundred and forty-four, but it is one hundred and forty-four, please instruct!" Bai Chongxi ran over to report. The loud voice resounded over the noisy railway station square, suppressing the voices of the surrounding crowd.

The chic and handsome Bai Chongxi, carrying a compact and neat backpack, a high-pitched and powerful report, and a military queue in a straight line soon became a unique scenery in front of the train station at night. Seeing the crowd around them nodding their heads from time to time, and letting out a wave of admiration, the students straightened their originally straight chests.

"Pit stop!" Tang Huaiyuan's password was crisp and neat.

Receiving the order, the cadet team quickly began to advance towards the entrance of the railway station in two columns under the command of Bai Chongxi. After entering the station, everyone quickly came to the military waiting room under the arrangement of the station staff. The military waiting room is not very spacey and there are not many seats, but compared to the chaotic situation outside, it seems much more orderly.

It didn't take long for the train to Chengdu to leave, and the students of the 14th team were very interested, and many of them had never taken a train before. However, soon after, the excitement of the students also passed quickly, the night was already very deep, and they couldn't help but feel sleepy after a hard day, and most of them had fallen asleep on their stomachs.

Yunnan-Burma border.

Pianma area, located on the western slope of Gaoligong Mountain, borders Myanmar on the west, south and north, and connects with Luzhang area in the east. The word "Pianma" comes from the Jingpo language, which means "place where timber is piled up", and the town covers an area of about 153 square kilometers, with a total length of 64 kilometers of national borders. Because of the previous border treaty dispute, at the end of 1910, the British sent a British army of more than 2,000 people led by Colonel Shanfro to invade Burma to attack and occupy the Pianma area belonging to China. It was not until after the Communist Party swept the southwest region that the 16th Regiment under the Sixth Division was stationed here for a long time to engage in armed confrontation with the British army.

At this time, the British troops stationed in the Pianma area were still the more than 2,000 troops under the command of Colonel Shanfro who had invaded Pianma, from the continuous attacks by the local residents in the early days to the year-long armed confrontation with the southwestern army, all of which made Shanfro full of a deep sense of disgust for this jungle area, if it were not for the interests of the British Empire, he would not have stayed in this place where birds don't.

On July 23, early in the morning, the mountain fog in the Katama area after the rain was so thick that it was impossible to see anything clearly from a dozen steps away. The patrol of the 16th Regiment went on patrol as usual, but when they reached Yingpan Street, they met the British and, as they could not understand the situation, they opened fire on each other. Although there were no casualties on either side, such a matter was not a small matter at a time when the relationship between the two sides was so tense, and they soon reported the matter to their respective superiors.

Huang Yongdu, the commander of the 16th Regiment, who received the report from his subordinates, was a little surprised but not surprised; as an officer at the regimental level, he obviously knew more than the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level. Due to the hard-line attitude of the southwestern government on the war in Tibet, the relations between the two sides have completely moved towards a state of de facto hostility, and there may be a sudden battle that day. After reporting the matter to the division commander Zhang Wenguang, he could only strictly order his subordinates to strengthen their vigilance to prevent emergencies.

Almost at the same time, Colonel Sanfro, who was on the side of the British army, also received the news from his subordinates, and he touched the two handfuls of beard on his mouth, and his brown eyes looked coldly out of the window. "A bunch of filthy pigs", Sandfro cursed fiercely in his heart, he has been here for almost a year against these yellow-skinned monkeys, when will it be the turn of the Anglo-Saxons to create a world order that these yellow-skinned monkeys can challenge? He couldn't figure it out. In his vision, there was only one way to make these barbarians understand this. Shanfuro, who had secretly made up his mind in his heart, gradually showed a sneer on the corner of his mouth, picked up the military hat and put it on his head, and then straightened his military uniform and walked out of the room with his usual pride.

In the afternoon of the same day, in the jungle of Shangpaima, there were shadows of British soldiers lurking here, and at this moment they were aiming their guns at the Chinese army patrol striding on the opposite path. James was the commander of this British army, and he received an order from Colonel Shanfro to destroy this Chinese army and give some color to these yellow monkeys who dared to shoot at the Imperial army. James lay among his soldiers with his pistol in his hand, looking ahead with great excitement. At this time, there was only one signal transmitted in his cranial nerves, and that was to open fire and destroy the Chinese army passing in front of him.

“ready.” With James' order, all the muzzles began to be aimed.

“fire.”

Flames erupted from the muzzle of the gun, and four or five people of the Chinese patrol who were caught off guard fell in a pool of blood in an instant, and the remaining soldiers quickly lay down on the spot after panicking, picked up their weapons and fired back.

And looking at this scene in front of him, James smiled coldly, although there were still about thirty people on the other side, but he believed that with the quality of the imperial army, he would soon be able to destroy the other party. This was the way to talk to these inferiors, he thought, to make them remember that this was the Anglo-Saxon world, and that the filthy barbarians should be subject to noble white rule. The bullets will tell them, and the blood will tell them that the interests of the British Empire are inviolable.

But James didn't know, Sanfro didn't know, and even their Prime Minister Asquith of the British Empire didn't know, the Chinese have never been afraid of death, the Chinese believe in sacrificing their lives for righteousness, the Chinese believe in keeping Dan's heart and sweat, and the Chinese believe in the past despite tens of millions of people!

The gunfire in the jungle on the border quickly spread to Chengdu, to Beijing, and to all of China. The bloodshed did not scare the Chinese, more Chinese stood up. The clarion call for a counterattack against Britain also officially began to sound.
