After a long period of war, the originally good Mandalay area has now become full of holes, with potholes and broken houses becoming the most conspicuous "scenery" here

At first, many Burmese natives lived here, as well as some Chinese who settled here, but after the Japanese army came, most of the residents were slaughtered by the Japanese army, and the rest were imprisoned in concentration camps to build fortifications for them.

Mandalay Province in central Burma was the main area where the Japanese army held prisoners of war, and after the 88th Army completely occupied this place, three large concentration camps were found here, which held more than 100,000 civilians and prisoners of war.

There were British, Americans, some captured expeditionary soldiers and a large number of local natives, all of whom were yellow and thin, and the long-term labor and malnutrition left them with only skin and bones.

When the soldiers of the 88th Army arrived, almost everyone in the concentration camp was stunned like walking corpses, not knowing that the other party was here to rescue them, and thinking that the Japanese had come to take another batch to work on road construction or conduct some human experiments.

When the handcuffs and anklets were opened and the hot porridge was brought to them, everyone couldn't believe that all this was real.

It's been too long, it's been too long... The days of imprisonment and slavery are like hell, there is never an end in sight, how far away freedom is, and now... Finally able to get rid of all this pain, countless people cried with joy and hugged each other and cried.

The fighters brought these people to the city of Mandalay to make unified arrangements, first to solve their food and clothing problems, and secondly, health and medical care and identity problems.

Due to the huge number of people in the concentration camp, it can be said that the consumption of materials can be said to be a bottomless pit, so Liao Mingyu did not dare to hold it up, and hurriedly contacted the Allies to explain the situation, and asked Stilwell for help, and at the same time prepared to expose the atrocities of the Japanese to the international community.

Although everyone is red-eyed now, public opinion is also a sharp weapon if it is mastered, and when the post-war liquidation is completed, the little devil will be able to charge one more crime.

The horrific conditions in the concentration camps quickly caught the attention of the theater command, and anyone who saw the inhumane photos couldn't help but curse little Japan for damning. Stilwell personally ordered the rescue of these captives with all his might, and tried to satisfy them with food and clothing, after all, there were still many of their compatriots.

Within a few days, several high-ranking officers of the American and British military arrived in Mandalay, and the American and British soldiers in the concentration camp were quickly brought back to the army by their respective commanders.

In addition to these gringos, there were more than 8,000 Chinese soldiers among the prisoners of war, most of whom were captured by the Japanese during the rout of the First Expeditionary Force, and were imprisoned and tortured in concentration camps for two years, during which many of their comrades had lost their lives, and sometimes it was a pain to live.

The Americans are quite realistic, although they brought a lot of food and supplies in front, but when they picked up their own people, they didn't care about the rest, and the extra supplies they had promised were cut off, and they already looked like they didn't care about themselves.

Liao Mingyu originally notified the Western Yunnan Garrison Headquarters, wanting them to at least help these suffering soldiers for the sake of their compatriots, but it's a pity... The current commander is no longer Wei Lihuang, and it's already good that Chief He doesn't stumble on you, so don't expect anything else to help.

There is no way, the reorganization of the various departments of the expeditionary force, the scattering of the scattered, it is impossible to return to the original unit, and the military has long included them in the list of missing or killed, and now they have fallen into this field, grandma does not love uncle and uncle, it is sad and lamentable.

Liao Mingyu is very sympathetic to the plight of these soldiers, at least they have also shed blood on this battlefield, and they should not be treated like this.

However, at present, all units need to supplement and retrain, and the amount of materials required can be called an astronomical amount, but in order not to let it, they can only temporarily withdraw part of their own military rations, and at the same time arrange for Li Lei's medical team to go to Mandalay to carry out medical work, and transfer the Lashio headquarters to Mandalay in an all-round way.

The words of those ordinary people were not dismissed for the time being, and Liao Mingyu put them in the resettlement camp, where they were raised for good food and drink, and then planned and arranged in the next step.

Long Wenwen started the idea of those expeditionary force prisoners of war at this time, and for a while the battle losses of the third division were the highest in the whole army, and they have not been replenished, can't these people just make up for this vacancy.

Anyway, they are also battlefield veterans, although their physical condition is a little thinner now, but as long as they are well maintained, they are also a good source of soldiers, the most important thing is experience, and the value of veterans is much stronger than that of recruits.

So this guy immediately set up a recruiting point in the resettlement camp, gathered all the soldiers who met the requirements, and began his foolish Dafa.

"Brothers, listen to me, the treatment of our 88th Army is not the same as the previous expeditionary force, we can receive fifteen and a half cents a month, and they are distributed on time, you can see the meat every day, and see the gun in Lao Tzu's hand? This is the old beauty of Garand! You can shoot without pulling the bolt, which is many times stronger than the official in the middle of nowhere! And the flower trap..."

Mi Long shouted hard in the crowd, but the progress was not satisfactory, and even if he said that it was the first day, few people came to sign up

Most of those veterans have not yet recovered from the nightmare, and few are willing to take the initiative to re-enter the army, and they really don't want to experience war again.

Besides, there are a few words in the mouth of the officials who are true, not all of them are good words to deceive you first, and then the actual situation is completely different.

Looking at those dull eyes and indifferent expressions, Mi Long felt irritable in his heart, and jumped off the high platform impatiently, scolding and squirting with deflated calves and the like.

"Big brother can't do this, we have to think of a trick." Sheep Danzi preached worriedly, and brought a cup of tea for the dragon.

"What's the trick? These eight calves, the old men are delicious and delicious and don't know how to be grateful, one by one, the oil and salt like mountain cannon eggs don't enter, I really don't know what Junzuo is doing to raise this group of waste, and they will know how powerful they are when they are hungry. ”

Speaking of this lost dragon, he was angry, and he tried to salivate, but people were indifferent, as if he thought you were going to harm them.

"Humph! If you want me to say, what are you doing with them? Just catch it and clean it up, and you don't dare to say no! ”

Zhang Liu, who was leaning on the side with a gun, had a cold gaze, he scoffed at Milong's approach, sometimes he had to be ruthless, otherwise those veterans would not be obedient.

Mi Long was silent, to tell the truth, these words made him a little moved, originally he had to be treated special in a special period, if it wasn't for the constant emphasis from the top that he could not violate discipline and forcibly recruit soldiers, he would have rolled up his sleeves a long time ago.
