It can't be said that Tang Qiuli was careless, but that he underestimated British Prime Minister Winston? Churchill's madness, the signing of the "Indo-Burmese Border Non-Aggression Pact", and the annihilation of the British army in the Hukang Valley did not make the British ambition and desire to return to Indochina any less or scruples

The intelligence network of the intelligence department and the key areas established by the intelligence department happened to be not in the eastern part of India, and under the circumstance of accidents, Alexander's actions reached unprecedented concealment, which was doomed to the consequences of heavy casualties among the troops of the independent division in the early days of the battle on the Indo-Burmese border.

Alexander's choice of advance route was the passage of his defeat in eastern India, that is, the Indo-Burmese border area, the only main passage to northern Burma, the Hukang River Valley, where thousands of British soldiers were buried, and the only road in northern Burma where trucks and tanks and armored vehicles could pass.

When Alexander's jeep drove into Burma, His Excellency, the high-spirited general, had mixed feelings, two years ago, he took tens of thousands of remnants of the defeated army who were dying by the Japanese, with the bitter hatred of being betrayed by Tang Qiuli, and left the land of Indochina under the supervision of Chinese soldiers, leaving only a tragic shadow, a lingering nightmare, and a shame under the fence.

Two years later, another reincarnation of history, with his own strong soldiers and horses, a color of American equipment, the elite soldiers, fought back, when the jeep stopped at the border monument between India and Burma, the moment of Burma's land, Alexander ordered to stop.

He gracefully stepped out of the jeep and into the forest on the side of the road, and soon Alexander came out with a rotten rifle in his hand, which he had picked up next to the British soldier who had been reduced to a pile of bones. He was one of the tens of thousands of soldiers who followed and retreated into India.

However, he was unfortunate when he saw the light of hope. Fallen on Burmese soil, a few steps away from another overseas territory of the British Empire, they did not become a member of the army that followed them back to Indochina today, and the soldiers who survived for many years have become grassroots commanders and the backbone of the troops under their command.

Alexander's pale blue eyes. As if wet, he said to the reporters accompanying the army: "Dear Alstom, just in front of this boundary monument, take a picture for me, I want to leave a permanent memorial, but also the memory of the soldiers who died because of the betrayal of the Chinese two years ago, and also remember that tragic history and hatred for Tang Qiuli!" ”

Very understandable. Alexander's mood at the moment, however, was clearly strange and distorted. Similar to a madman, he blamed Tang Qiuli for the fiasco of the Anglo-Burmese army in Indochina two years ago, but he did not say a word about the Japanese who had defeated his more than 400,000 troops, only 30,000 remained, and ran to India in a wolf.

At the beginning, if Tang Qiuli had not captured Myitkyina. Open the passage to eastern India, without the troops of the independent division, the full supply of the remnants of the British army, even without the Japanese behind the buttocks, the rabbits are in hot pursuit, Alexander and his remnants are defeated. If you can't go to Lambgar and Plame, you will become a pile of white bones on the side of the road, and it is most appropriate to use revenge on this English gentleman.

Alston is a reporter who is very good at observing words and feelings, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency General, from your words, I have heard the love of a gentleman-like British general for ordinary soldiers, which makes me very moved, I will definitely send your words just now, word for word, to the newspaper, your name, will once again attract the attention of the domestic people, I believe that a new generation belonging to you, is coming!" ”…,

Alstom's words obviously scratched Alexander's itch, he smiled happily, took a good pose in front of the boundary monument, took a very stylish photo, and then, pointing to the boundary monument, said to several officers: "Knock it down, smash it, because its location should not be here, but in the distant Malay Peninsula." ”

When a few strong soldiers began to move, Alexander changed his mind and said: "Dig it out, put it in my car, and I will bury this boundary monument in Singapore City in the Malay Peninsula with my own hands, and let this silent boundary monument follow in the footsteps of my return to Southeast Asia!" ”

Alexander turned around and said to several senior staff officers: "Convey my order, the avant-garde troops, as fast as possible, through the valley of the Hukang River, the terrible terrain conditions here make me feel very bad, I am reminded of a lot of unpleasant pasts, and, order the avant-garde troops, if they encounter the squadron, do not ask for instructions, immediately shoot, with the sole purpose of destroying the Chinese!" ”

When he said these words, a cold light appeared in Alexander's pale blue eyes, and Alston approached him and asked in a low voice: "Your Excellency, the treaty we signed with Tang Qiuli is already well known to the world, is it suspected that we have taken the initiative to provoke a war when we crossed the border and attacked the squadron on a large scale this time?" ”

Alstom's questioning was still very tactful and skillful, according to the current practice of the British, it was an act of aggression that openly tore up the treaty and violated the territory of other countries, because once the squadron was engaged, this treaty would inevitably be brought up, and he needed the attitude of General Alexander, so that he could write the manuscript according to this principle.

Even so, Alexander was very uncomfortable, and even more unwilling to listen, he glanced at Alston unhappily, and said in a tone of voice: "Dear Alstom, the reason why I only approve you to be my military correspondent is that I fancy your clever mind and can report the whole process, and the great feat of our British Empire's army once again setting foot on the land of Southeast Asia, but your question is very stupid. ”

Alston was stunned, he didn't expect that it was an innocuous question, but it made the commander-in-chief very unhappy, what is the problem? This smart man is confused at the moment.

Looking at Alstom's sluggish face, Alexander was very satisfied with the effect of his words, and in order to teach the younger ones, he continued: "Dear Alstom, you must always remember that the so-called treaties and the contents of the treaties are drawn up by the victors, and this is the prerogative of the victors. ”

"At the beginning, we signed this treaty when we were forced to do so, in order to avoid greater losses, when the Chinese had the upper hand, and in essence, this is an unequal treaty, and I have the obligation and responsibility to tear it up, not to believe in any treaty, let alone affect objective and fair reporting because of your ideas, understand?"

Alstom, of course, does not understand, according to the general, that only the victorious side has the right to sign a treaty, what kind of bullshit logic is this, and for the losing side, is this still a treaty? simply called the surrender letter, and if he didn't understand, he didn't dare to ask any further, which annoyed this general who was in the limelight, and he didn't know how he died, so he could only listen with a confused head and a teachable face.

In the early morning of April 23, it was an extremely ordinary weather for people living in the Hukang River Valley, still heavy fog, warm and humid air currents from the Indian Ocean, the subtropical region, the climate characteristics of April, undoubtedly, the fog will not be until 9 o'clock in the morning, under the sun, gradually disperse. …,

Of course, this is in the weather when it does not rain, in order to see the sunshine, if it is a few days of continuous rain, the fog is stirred in the continuous rain, so that people's breath is stagnant, a mouth, as if in the water, very stuffy, a few meters on the opposite side can not see people, even the spirit of people, it seems to be wet and not refreshing.

In such a weather of dense fog mixed with rain, Lieutenant Qi Yajun, the commander of the No. 59 post of the third garrison of the northern Burma border garrison area, was the first person to get up as usual, stretched his waist, looked at the fog covering the sky outside the window, and the raindrops hitting the window, Qi Yajun smiled bitterly, it has been such a bad weather for three consecutive days.

The military uniform on his body, in a few days, has not been dry, not only the military uniform, even the bedding can be wrung out of water, look at the watch, it is already 5:30 in the morning, he jumped out of bed neatly, within two minutes, he cleaned himself up, casually put the Suomi submachine gun on his shoulder, and then, in the mirror, showed a mischievous smile.

Just about to go out, he turned around, opened the ammunition box, took a few more magazines, loaded a few more grenades, and then, walked to the corridor, "Doodoooooooo A hurried whistle sounded in the outpost, and within three minutes fifty-two warriors, already fully armed, were standing in the open space in front of the outpost, mist and rain dripping down their raincoats.

This is the northern Burmese border garrison area, an ordinary outpost, the strength of a reinforced platoon, responsible for the daily patrol task of the area of nearly 60 kilometers between the No. 109 boundary pillar and the No. 201 boundary pillar, Qi Yajun is the post commander, according to the rank and position, should be the deputy company level, after graduating from the Dingbian Military Academy and the basic command department, I thought that I could be assigned to the field troops.

Unexpectedly, he was assigned to this primeval forest that soaked in water all day long, which made Qi Yajun, who was originally from Hebei, very uncomfortable, but after staying here for more than a year, he has become accustomed to it, and gradually liked the Yiqiē here, a young man in his twenties, a young man with full vitality, can keep this loneliness, which is commendable.

Although it was still rain and fog today, and the patrol could not be interrupted once a day, Qi Yajun ordered: "One detachment stays behind, pay attention to receiving calls and telegrams from superiors, and other detachments carry out patrol tasks!" ”

There was a sound of military boots stepping on muddy water, and after a few steps, the figure of this group of more than 40 Chinese soldiers disappeared into the vast fog.
