In the jungle, the ancient trees are towering to the sky, covering the sky and the sun......

The temperature in the mountains at night is not high, and every now and then there is a howl or two of wild beasts and the wailing of owls.

The moon was obscured by the influx of black clouds, revealing only a faint halo of darkness from behind the thick clouds.

The wind swayed high in the treetops, making a slow, slamming sound. It looks like a sea of desert-like trees moving overhead, setting off the quiet night.

A narrow old walkway, zigzag into the depths of the jungle, looked a little eerie in the silence of the night.

Sixteen people and a dog hiked along the mountain trail.

Liao Mingyu asked many people in Luqiao Township, this is the only road leading to Heshun Town, and you can reach the periphery of Heshun Town by walking along the road to the end.

The forest was dimly lit and surrounded by an erratic mist, and if it weren't for the trail beneath their feet, they would have been lost in the dense jungle.

However, the speed of their march was not complimentary, the night march was already difficult, coupled with this harsh jungle environment, it may be a little difficult to reach Heshun Town around 5 o'clock.

"Danza, remember what that nerd said? We need to set up a torch in the dark night. The idle dragon article began to pull up the calf, and did not forget to take a piece of jerky from his pocket and feed it to the dog meat at the head of the row.

Isn't this dark night where you can't see your fingers just respond to the little bookworm's words, but Liao Mingyu walked by himself and didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

"I don't know where this kid is now, whether his mind is clear."

"Lighting a torch in the dark? Isn't that what only people over there would say? Meng asked suspiciously.

"Hehe, that kid's mouth is more broken than yours, and he has read a lot of books, and it is a set of things to say." Long Wenwen laughed.

"Yo hey, I didn't meet me, the little master practiced calligraphy at the age of three, wrote poetry at the age of five, and at the age of 7, the Analects of the Hundred Schools of Thought had already been memorized backwards. Now I don't dare to say that I am rich in five cars, but I can be regarded as full of economy, which is the so-called ......"

Meng was not convinced, and began to blow nonsense, but was soon interrupted by Liao Mingyu.

"Don't beep, hurry! No matter how much you grind, you can't go to Heshun Town at 7 o'clock. Liao Mingyu said in a deep voice.

They had been walking for almost 4 hours since they set off at 2 o'clock, but they didn't see the shadow of Heshun Town. If it weren't for the road under my feet, I would have thought I was going in the wrong direction.

"There is a fork in the road ahead of the regiment commander, which way should we go?" Dong Dao, who was exploring the road in front, suddenly ran back to report the situation.

"Fork in the road? It looks like it's almost there, die, die, take someone to the high places to explore! Liao Mingyu commanded.

Long Wenwen immediately ran to a small hillside next to him, and Meng was annoyed and hurriedly followed.

The sky was overcast, and the distant sky was already slightly white, and some mottled and sparse light shone in through the branches and leaves of the trees.

They walked through the forest to the top of the slope, and the familiar and unfamiliar Nantianmen came into view, and through the telescope, they could vaguely see the two lines of defense and Lingbao on the anticline.

"We've already arrived behind the Nantian Gate, the master on the mountain is really amazing, this ass root is still solid." Meng was annoyed, holding the binoculars and couldn't help but complain.

"Otherwise, this old boy is yin, you see how dense those fortresses and fortifications are, and they are no worse than their frontal defense line."

The dragon article is also carefully observing. The last time I came, there were not so many fortified fortresses, but now the Japanese have built these two lines of defense even better.

"Let's get a look at it." Long Wen said to himself.

"Wang Ba's lid is cheeky and small, and he still repairs an iron ass to be Mozi?" Not spicy means something incomprehensible.

The two ignored him and continued to observe the situation ahead.

At this time, Liao Mingyu also came over from down: "How is it?" ”

"Tuanza, we should be 8 kilometers west of Nantianmen, and further on we should be in the direction of our retreat from Burma." Long Wenwen handed him the telescope as he spoke.

Liao Mingyu looked at it for a while, and he also had a rough idea in his heart. The forts and gun ports were aimed in the direction of the top of the hill, and the road at the foot of the hill was undefended. If you suddenly attack from behind, you can definitely disrupt the deployment of the Japanese.

"If we attack from the rear, as long as we occupy these two lines of defense, we can make the Japanese a turtle in an urn, and their heavy artillery will no longer be useful at such a distance, and then it will be the rhythm of closing the door and beating the dog." Liao Mingyu said seriously.

Long Wenwen nodded and didn't speak, the Japanese army would definitely be in chaos under the attack from both sides, but he always felt that there was still something missing.

Liao Mingyu seemed to see Long Wenwen's thoughts, and said to him with a smile: "Do you want to go to the mountain to have a look?" ”

"Well, I always feel that it is not as simple as we see." Long Wenwen nodded and replied.

"Let's go first, get down to business." Liao Mingyu patted him on the shoulder, turned around and walked down.

……

The team continued to move on, and slowly they came to the edge of the jungle, but the sight here filled everyone's hearts with sorrow, because it was a sad place.

The forest is littered with all kinds of war remains, cracked guns, artillery wreckage...... After all this time, it was covered with moss and vines, and even the unburied corpses were exposed in the wilderness.

Dong Dao suddenly walked to a damaged gun carriage and knelt down, muttering to himself: "It's been more than three months since I crossed the river, Xiaojian... Now we are getting closer to you. ”

After speaking, he gently stroked the gray cloth bag around his waist, which contained the ashes of his younger brother Dong Jian. Looking at the stumps and severed arms around him that had turned into powder, my heart was filled with deep thoughts for my brother.

At this time, the dog meat who was walking in front suddenly bared his teeth and whimpered, and this big wolf dog with a human nature seemed to have discovered something.

"There is a situation!"

Long Wenwen let out a low roar, and the others immediately squatted down on the spot, holding the weapons in their hands and looking around vigilantly.

Long Wenwen looked back at Liao Mingyu, who nodded and waved his hand to signal the team to disperse, and they each found cover and waited for the next order.

Long Wenwen and Bu Lai slowly touched the bushes in front of them, and Liao Mingyu followed closely with the rest of the people.

As they leaned in, they saw five or six figures in the bush, but something didn't seem right......

"Put down the gun, not the enemy."

Long Wenwen saw the figure in front of him clearly, it was a few ragged ordinary people, they were nervously huddled together, leaning on the grass and branches.

Liao Mingyu walked forward with people and found that there were men and women in these people, they were obviously frightened, and looked at the Sichuan army and the gang very frightened.

"Don't be afraid, we are an expeditionary force." Liao Mingyu explained.

Maybe it was because the light was too dim, coupled with the camouflage on Liao Mingyu's face, several people were indifferent at all. Their eyes were full of nervousness and numbness, and they didn't seem to believe the group in front of them.

One of the older civilians stood up silently, and he asked timidly, "You... Is it really a Chinese? ”

"Don't be afraid, we are really an expeditionary force, Huaxia."

Long Wenwen nodded, showing a smile that he thought was amiable, but he forgot the camouflage on his face, and that smile was terrifying no matter how he looked at it.

"The Western Yunnan Expeditionary Force, my own family." Dong Dao also followed, adding again in his western Yunnan accent.

Listening to the familiar hometown dialect, the people let down their guard. One by one, they slowly emerged from the bushes.

But then again, if it were really the Japanese, how could they ask them questions, and the only answer to them would be cold bullets......
