Hearing Zhao Yuhe ask like this, Tang Qiuli really couldn't answer, for Stilwell Chinese, his feelings are complicated, in all fairness, aside from their respective national interests and positions, Stilwell is a real soldier, compared to MacArthur, Tang Qiuli is more willing to deal with such American soldiers.? Come on,.!

In history, Stilwell's contribution to China's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression won the general respect of the Chinese, and whether it was Chairman Chiang's Kuomintang or the CCP praised Stilwell, and later, the initial cause of the discord between Stilwell and Chairman Chiang was also because of the different attitudes towards the CCP, so that it was irreconcilable Cheng Dù.

In order to hold Chairman Chiang and prevent him from going to the side of the Japanese, the US top brass had no choice but to transfer Stilwell back to China and take up an idle post.

is such a pure soldier, MacArthur actually wanted to borrow a knife to kill people, and Tang Qiuli's heart couldn't help but swell up with contempt for MacArthur and sympathy for Stilwell, but how could he say these words to Zhao Yuhe, and Tang Qiuli firmly believed that even if all the American military bigwigs couldn't see the conspiracy of the Japanese, Stilwell would definitely see it, and this may be the fundamental reason why he was demoted, right?

With an indifferent smile, Tang Qiuli said: "It doesn't matter if I care, it's just that I have had a few encounters with Stilwell, this person is a rare general in the US army, and he is a pure soldier, and he is not very comfortable with his encounter today!" ”

Zhao Yuhe smiled, and said intentionally to adjust the atmosphere: "It's the first time I've heard that the division commander praised an American general like this, assuming that the American troops in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific are commanded by Stilwell, then the battle of Luzon will be a different ending, right?" ”

Tang Qiuli laughed and said: "If this is the case, it will be difficult for our next plan to achieve the desired effect, and the difficulty of implementation will increase countless times. ”

Zhao Yuhe also smiled and said: "Also, I hope that Stilwell will be wiped out by the Japanese army, and we will also have one less potential opponent, by the way, division commander, how can we call back to the Chutian detachment leader?" ”

Tang Qiuli pondered for a moment and said: "Order Chutian, the reconnaissance mission of Luzon Island has been completed, your team will immediately withdraw from the battlefield and return to Yangon, there is an important task to complete, in addition, leave the battlefield quickly, so as not to add unnecessary accidents, for a person like Chutian, not to mention the next important task, he promises to bargain with you!" ”

Zhao Yuhe recorded it, looked at Tang Qiuli, and asked with some doubts: "Division commander, does the special operations detachment really have the next important task?" ”

Tang Qiuli nodded and said, "Yuhe, you forgot about it, Hong Kong is the next target I chose, it must be the special operations detachment!" ”

Seeing that Zhao Yuhe was still going to ask, he continued: "Let's not talk about this issue first, wait for Chutian to come back!" ”

Zhao Yuhe walked to the door, suddenly turned around, and said tentatively: "Division commander, the staff office is holding a farewell party for Staff Officer Liu, don't you participate?" ”

Tang Qiuli shook his head and said a little depressedly: "Don't participate, when the time comes, make a scene of tears in your eyes, let the officers below see it, the majesty of my division commander is gone, Yuhe, you represent the division headquarters and me, go and participate, in the name of sending off the interns of the Guangzhou Military Academy, Xinlan is your subordinate after all, and he has worked in the division headquarters for more than a year, and it is not good for us to have a division commander and a chief of staff, and we will not come forward!" ”

Zhao Yuhe wanted to persuade him again, Tang Qiuli waved his hand and stopped him, after Zhao Yuhe saluted, he left with a complicated mood, this matter, he thought that the division commander had gone too far!

At Yangon Airport, a large military transport plane was parked on the runway, Liu Xinlan was dressed in military uniform, and on the armed belt around her waist, there was a delicate small pistol, which was the "Browning" pistol given to him by Tang Qiuli, which was his most beloved thing, and there were a large group of officers from the staff office around him, and Director Ge Zhenzhuang was also in the crowd of farewells, and everyone was vying to say goodbye to Liu Xinlan.

Mei Xue saw that Liu Xinlan was a little absent-minded, knowing this girl's thoughts, she approached her ear and whispered: "Xinlan, don't look at it, there is important information, he won't come, but don't worry, tonight, I'll ask him well, why don't you come to send our Xinlan?" If he doesn't give a reason, I can't spare him and not let him go to bed! ”

Mei Xue's joke was intended to dilute the grievances in Liu Xinlan's heart, Liu Xinlan smiled, and then said with red circles in her eyes: "Sister Xue, why is he so ruthless, he won't even send me to the airport, hmph, when I graduate, I won't return to him, and ask to be assigned to Deputy Division Commander Liu Tiehan in the Northeast, and if you stay away from him, you won't be upset!" ”

Mei Xue caressed it lovingly, Liu Xinlan's long black hair, sighed, and said, "Silly girl, don't say angry words, can you be willing to run to the northeast?" I'm afraid I haven't graduated yet, your heart has already flown back! Okay, get on the plane, don't let everyone see your pear blossoms with rain! ”

Liu Xinlan looked back again and glanced at the sky of the Indochina Peninsula where she had lived and worked for more than a year, the colleagues who got along day and night, Mei Xue who was like a sister, in her heart, there was too much sweetness and nostalgia, and the days and nights by this man's side would be sweet and bitter memories in the future, as well as endless lovesickness and concern, accompanied by her lonely time for a year.

Liu Xinlan suddenly had an urge to cry, hugged Mei Xue tightly, lay in her ear, and said in a thin voice: "Sister Xue, I will work hard for you when I leave, take good care of this ruthless guy for me!" Sue him, I hate him! ”

Letting go of Mei Xue, Liu Xinlan waved her hand to her colleagues, turned around, and boarded the transport plane without looking back, no one saw that two lines of crystal tears, at the moment she turned around, suddenly fell and dripped at her feet, this land that left herself too sweet.

The huge transport plane, roaring, rushed to the end of the runway, suddenly soared into the air, facing the Wandao sunrise of the Indochina Peninsula, and gradually disappeared into the blue sky.

In a forest next to the airport, a military jeep was parked, Tang Qiuli retracted his gaze looking at the sky, at this moment, his heart became empty and unsettled, and there was a trace of pain of being torn, put on sunglasses, pushed the lever with his right hand, stepped on the accelerator fiercely, and the jeep let out a roar, like a fierce horse that was whipped violently, facing the brilliant morning glow, and went away.

The tall trees on both sides of the mountain road, connected into a series of afterimages, quickly retreated, behind the car, the smoke and dust rolled, at this time Tang Qiuli, need speed, a kind of extreme speed, with a highly tense nerves when flying, forced himself to forget the scene just now, and difficult to calm down, the special guards in the five jeeps behind them, seeing the commander's car, driving faster and farther, but they were in a hurry and couldn't catch up!

The mountain tiger was in a hurry, on the galloping jeep, he achieved the driving position, stepped on the accelerator fiercely, and the four jeeps behind him distanced himself, and arrived at a hillside full of colorful wildflowers, and the lush forest, Tang Qiuli breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the mountain tiger who followed up: "Huzi, I'm fine, go, go back to the division!" ”

Chu Tian, who received the telegram from the division headquarters, had a plan in his heart that was similar to what Tang Qiuli said, this time, when he entered Luzon Island to reconnoiter intelligence, Chu Tian's heart was very depressed, and he felt that his team had not completed the task assigned by the division commander, or rather, it was very unsatisfactory, and at the very least, MacArthur's plan to defend Manila had not yet been obtained.

If it weren't for the division commander, in the last part of the telegram, it means that the reconnaissance mission has ended, and next, there are still important tasks to complete, Chu Tian will definitely grind hard and get into MacArthur's stomach in Manila, turn around, and figure out the fancy intestines of this Yankee.

Chu Tian also saw the meaning of protecting his group from the division commander's order, "Get out of the battlefield quickly, so as not to add unnecessary unexpected factors" What does this mean, the division commander is afraid that his group will be trapped in Luzon and will not be able to get out?

This made Chu Tian more and more depressed, the special operations detachment, known as the "sword" of the independent division, countless winds and waves have broken through, what kind of big scene, I haven't experienced it, when did it become the object of the division commander's attention? It's like taking care of a bunch of recruits!

Chu Tian's heart was very unhappy, but the division commander's order could not be carried out, besides, there were new tasks waiting for him, Chu Tian ordered the group to withdraw along the route they came, however, the signboard of the field patrol group of the staff of the 14th Army could not be used, the further back he went, the more likely he was to meet the Japanese command organ, in case he was a fake Long Ze Zhongzuo, and met a real person from the staff of the 14th Army, he would be exposed at once!

Therefore, Chutian changed into a lieutenant, from Zhongzuo to a captain, and the false number of the group also became the search squadron of the 73rd Wing of the 68th Division, Chutian was the squadron leader Captain Fujino, and as for the detachment leader, he also played the role of a second lieutenant squad leader, a team of more than 50 people, facing the continuous flow of Japanese troops heading for the mountains of Calais, and rushed towards the direction of Legazpi on Luzon Island.

On the morning of 7 June, the Japanese troops passing by, numbered and uncared, and the small troops of more than 50 people, after resting for a while at noon, continued to set off.

But after walking for less than an hour, trouble came, a convoy of seven or eight cars, when passing by Chutian and them, suddenly stopped, and a Japanese officer jumped out of the car at the head and walked towards Chutian and them!
