The Burmese volunteers fell to the Japanese army, but for the Dai people, they admired freedom and did not rejoice at the arrival of the Japanese army.

When the Independent Volunteers appeared in the town, the Dai people knew that the war was coming to them, and a large number of Dai people chose to leave and entered the surrounding mountains and forests, where they have lived for generations, and the forests are their second home.

The Japanese army relied on the volunteers to collect a lot of boats, including all the ferries and many fishing boats, and the violent way of collecting them annoyed the Dai people, for them, the boats were not only used to cross the river, but their important means of transportation and life, and it was naturally impossible for the guys to eat to hand them over.

"Chinese is coming, and the mountains are full of Chinese soldiers......"

When the expeditionary force entered the rolling alley, the Dai man hiding in the forest transmitted the news back to the forest.

"If the house is gone, you can build it again, let them fight with the Japanese!"

The old clan elder sighed, and stopped the impulse of the young hunters, which could not be rivaled by their humble shotguns and bows and arrows, which had already taught them countless bloody lessons in the hands of the British.

"Be careful, watch your step."

Rhoda's assault team had penetrated more than five kilometers into the mountains, and it was dark and they were looking for the light of the fire in the wild, in which even hunters relied on the light of the fire to repel insects and snakes.

……

"Commander, the assault team found the Dai people, and now they are surrounded by more than a hundred, the other side has shotguns and bows and arrows, and two brothers are wounded......"

Feng Ye was woken up in his sleep, and in the dim firelight, he looked at his watch, and it was less than two hours before dawn.

"Let's go, let's see!"

Feng Yi put on a raincoat, put on a steel helmet, carried Thomson, and walked into the rain.

"What's the situation?"

By the time Feng Ye arrived, it was already dawn, and behind him, Liang Hao followed him with a platoon of brothers.

"Captain, they're over there."

Rhoda pointed to the forest in front of him, and could vaguely see the existence of a treehouse on top of the huge trees.

"Did you shout?"

Feng asked.

"Shouted, I don't understand!"

Rhoda frowned, they couldn't understand what was being said on the other side, and similarly, the person on the other side didn't seem to understand what they were saying.

"Whew!"

“CanyouspeakEnglish?”

Feng Ye can't help it, these Dai people have their own language, and each place has a different dialect, he only hopes that some of these people can speak English, after all, the British have existed here for so long.

"What are you doing here? Why do you kill our people? ”

The stiff English did not conform to the grammar, but despite this, Feng Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and it was good to be able to communicate.

"We are the Chinese Expeditionary Force, we are not here to kill people, we want boats, we want to cross the river."

Feng Yi tried his best to express his intention in simple language.

"No, the boat has already been taken by them, there is no more boat."

The blunt rejection was a sign of the Dai people's misdeeds, who did not pay attention to their language because they were stuck here.

"Without a ship, we can't go back to China, the Japanese army is encircling this side, and most of us will die by then, what do you think we will do before we die?"

Feng Yi tried hard to suppress his anger and let these people think about it again. Rainbow Literature Network

"The house is for you, we don't want it......"

"You gave the Japanese ships, and in our hearts, you are the accomplices of the devils, and we have never shown mercy to the enemy; Roll around, it is estimated that there are still many Dai people! Before we die in battle, we will find them one by one and let them accompany us on our way; Of course, you are certainly the first ones. ”

Feng Yi's words were full of threats, and he didn't have time to talk to these people properly.

"No, we're not your enemies, you don't have to ...... that"

"You are, who helped the devils, and that is our enemy; If you don't want to be involved in the war, then you should do not help each other; Unless ......"

"Unless what? We can give you something to eat. ”

Inside the forest, in stiff English, it was obvious that the Dai people began to compromise.

"We don't want food, give us as many ships as you give the devils, otherwise, we can only be enemies ......"

"There are no boats, those people have robbed all our ferries, there are no boats......"

"No, you still have, even though there is no ferry, but you still have fishing boats; Give you five minutes to think about it, if it's still like this, I can bear it, but I can't control it, my brethren, so just wait for the guns! ”

Feng Ye shouted, gesticulating, and nodded stubbornly in the puzzled gazes of Luo Da and Liang Hao.

"Give them to them, let them leave, the forest behind them can't let them in, they can't let them disturb the souls of the ancestors......"

After a few minutes of silence, the old patriarch finally compromised, he was not worried about the more than 100 people in front of him, but more people behind him, soldiers who knew that they would die, their madness could not be guessed by common sense, not to mention that these people were not Burmese.

"Give you boats and get your people out of here!"

Inside the forest, several Dai people with bows and arrows and muskets appeared in sight, and they didn't care about the muzzle of the black hole in front of them.

"Let your men put down their guns, find the boat, and my men will naturally leave from here."

Feng Yi frowned and pointed to the two shotguns.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

"Da Da Da ......"

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

Luo Da was still waiting in place, Liang Hao led people to accompany the Dai people to find the boat, when they walked out of the forest, fierce gunfire sounded in their ears, the devil attack force had arrived, and was engaged in a fierce battle with the 96th division brothers after the break.

"That's all, no more."

Circling around the rolling alley, Feng eventually found a dozen petite fishing boats, which they had hidden.

"Okay, thank you."

Feng Yi nodded, he was sure that these Dai people must still have boats, but now that it was getting dark, there might be devils nearby at any time, and it was the best choice to bring people back these boats.

On May 11, the Devils broke through several heights of the 96th Division, and in the fierce battle, two anti-aircraft machine guns and two flat-fire guns on the position were destroyed by the Devils; Similarly, the guard battalion of the Fifth Army successfully crossed the Salween River and occupied the beachhead under the cover of artillery fire from the artillery regiment across the river.

"How's the engineer battalion ready? Can we start building bridges tomorrow? ”

Inside the town, Du Yuming was worried, and the brothers of the 96th Division were fighting hard behind him, the purpose was to prevent the devil's artillery from threatening the Salween River, and not to let the hard-built pontoon bridge be destroyed by the devil's artillery fire.

"It's still being prepared, there are no boats, and it's all about rafts to erect pontoons, which is very difficult; Especially after 50 meters offshore, there is a deep water area of about 100 meters, and if the wooden stakes cannot be driven, they will be washed away, and there is no way to fix the ......."

Luo Youlun shook his head.

"Let them hurry up and find a way, they can't drag it out any longer, they must cross the river tomorrow."

Du Yuming had a headache, and he was delayed here for another day, the sky in Myanmar seemed to have leaked, and the rain had not stopped in the past two days, with light rain, moderate rain, and heavy rain constantly staggering back and forth with God's mood.
