Chapter 125 Burma Jungle
This matter starts in 1938.

In that year, not long after the Japanese entered China, China at that time was quite backward in terms of military equipment.

Not only the Chinese people understand the truth of the cold lips, but also some small countries around them. Therefore, the neighboring countries bordering China at that time all sponsored anti-Japanese resources to a greater or lesser extent.

At that time, there was no road. In order to receive third-party materials, the Burma Road was built in early 1938.

At that time, 28 people in 20 counties in western Yunnan, inspired by the belief in resisting Japan and saving the country, brought their own rations and tools. In the mountains of 10 kilometers in northern Myanmar, the Yunnan-Myanmar Highway was built with hands and blood and sweat.

At that time, in order to build this road, countless people died due to blasting, falling into rocks, falling into rivers, heavy earth and rocks, and malignant dysentery.

It was opened to traffic at the end of 1938. Since then, the Burma Road has become the blood vessel of China's war of resistance.

This is a historic event for China, but not for Japan.The Japanese have a great appetite, and China is only their first target. In order to cut off China's third-party material assistance, the Japanese quickly occupied the Myanmar area. At the same time, Myanmar is adjacent to India in the northwest. The Japanese plan is to swallow After China, with Myanmar as the cornerstone, it once again annexed India.

At that time, Myanmar was a colony of the British, and the British were naturally very annoyed that the colony was occupied by Japan, so they reached an agreement with China and signed a "Sino-British Joint Defense Agreement on the Burma Road", establishing an alliance with China relation.

At that time, the Japanese army dispatched 6 people to invade Burma. After all, Britain was far away and the defense force was insufficient. However, Japan was very advanced in all aspects at that time. Entering the relatively backward Southeast Asia, it was like tigers and wolves entering a flock of sheep.

Under such conditions, China immediately organized the "Republic of China Expeditionary Force" to go to Burma to fight against Japan together with the British army.The Battle of Yunnan and Burma was China's first battle abroad after the Sino-Japanese War of 40-20. It was of great historical significance, but unfortunately, it was a very tragic battle.China invested more than [-] sick people, with a total casualty of nearly [-], before it ended in disaster, blocking the Japanese strategy of invading China from the Northwest rear.

And this is an old man of many years old, who was a member of the Chinese Expeditionary Force back then.

The battle lasted for three full years. In the harsh environment and outdated equipment and weapons, Chinese soldiers fought with guns and ammunition with flesh and blood. retreat.

The old man who asked us to do things is called Song Feng. He was not very old when he participated in the Yunnan-Burma Campaign. At that time, many people joined the army. But he lied about his age.

At the end of the campaign, news of the retreat came. At that time, the Japanese occupied the Burma Road, and the British army's equipment was delayed, so Song Feng's group of tired troops received an order to retreat.At that time, in order to avoid the Japanese, they retreated into the Burma jungle and returned to China all the way from the Burma jungle.

People who don’t know the Burma jungle may think it’s just an ordinary forest, but it’s a nightmare shared by both Chinese and Japanese.

During the retreat, the Japanese also chased into the jungle one after another. In order to preserve their strength, the commander at that time dispersed the team. Song Feng remembered that his team, which originally had more than 300 people, ended up with only Dozens of people.

In the end, even those dozens of people were gone, and he was the only one who survived through the Burmese jungle, browsed through the wild mountains of the river valley, and returned to China.

Many unspeakable things happened in the middle, and this old Fang didn't know too much, all he could know was some things that Song Feng relayed to him.Of course, there are many unreasonable things in this, which probably Song Feng deliberately concealed. As for the reason, it is unknown.

At that time, more than [-] troops were dispatched for the first time, and the number of casualties was close to [-]. Most of them did not die on the battlefield, but died in the Yunnan-Burma jungle or in the Savage Mountain.

The Burma jungle is full of poisonous insects, beasts, miasma, swamps, and hollows. Under the pursuit of the Japanese, the expeditionary force retreated quickly. At that time, of course, they knew the danger of the Burma jungle, but they had never experienced it personally. However, Song Feng never thought that such a danger would cost such a big price.

In the process of retreating and dispersing, the number of the 300-man squad gradually became smaller and smaller. They were forced to separate from the main force after confronting the Japanese head-on.Among the 300 soldiers, most of them were male soldiers, and there were only a dozen or so female soldiers.

In this process, the first sacrifice is the female soldier.

Whether it was physical strength or personal resistance, the female soldiers were far from enough. During this process, the ubiquitous miasma in the Burmese jungle eliminated those with slightly lower resistance in the team.There were abscesses on those people's bodies, which attracted countless mosquitoes, and even maggots grew from the wounds.

In the beginning, there was medicine in the team, but it was quickly consumed, and the later people could only suffer slowly.The feet they walked on were festered, corroded by miasma, and pustules were everywhere on their bodies. Everyone's body exuded a stench that seemed to be rotting.

People kept falling down and people were unconscious. In the beginning, they made some simple stretchers to carry the unconscious and fallen people away, but in the end, these fallen comrades had to be abandoned.

It's not that I don't want to be saved, but that I can't be saved and there's nothing I can do.

Little Japan is hateful, but the spirit of their allegiance to the emperor, the kind of magic that seems to have been brainwashed, is really terrible.

At that time, after Little Japan chased into the jungle, it fell into the same situation as the expeditionary army, but even at this time, those people still shouted long live the emperor and wiped out the Chinese pigs.In that kind of situation where there are enemy troops behind but everyone in the expeditionary army is seriously injured or seriously ill, there is no way to save people.

No physical strength, no medicine, even if carried on a stretcher, the person will just die on the stretcher in the end.

And a very painful death.

Song Feng always remembered that at the beginning, when there were still many people in the team, there were more than 20 wounded. They were originally extremely strong soldiers, but in the end they screamed and wailed on the stretchers, and maggots were in their wounds. Climbing up and down, the female nurses in the team cleaned up this one, but didn't care about that one.After the whole thing was cleaned up, new maggots appeared again.

One by one, the living people were rotting alive, and in the end, some people even wailed and begged: "Kill me, kill me."

"boom!"

It is not known who the first person to shoot was. In the following process, people died or even went missing.

Sometimes as we walked, two people would be missing in the line, and no one knew how people were lost.Some of them fell halfway and were not noticed by their companions, because their companions were also exhausted and painfully distracted.

A little delirious, he fell behind and lost his way while walking, and walked to an unknown place alone.

When there were about thirty people left in the team, they entered the Savage Mountain in the river valley.

It is said that there are savages in this mountain, and it is also the most taboo place for Burmese people.

At night, the team camped in exhaustion and lit a bonfire.The jungle is so humid that even the firewood is damp, and it is difficult to start a fire.The silent team, the stinking team, the team who don't know if they can survive, the deadly silence hangs over these dozens of people.

At that time, there was only one female soldier left, her legs were rotten, and she was almost unconscious. For some reason, she suddenly stood up and shouted at the sky completely covered by the big trees: "Ah... I want to go home !" The male soldiers around looked at her silently, and at last someone started to sob and cry, and the crying was continuous.

Song Feng is considered to be the most resistant among them. Their family used to run a medical clinic, and their father was a doctor, so Song Feng's body was well established.Although he was not affected by the miasma, exhaustion, hunger, and worn-out feet also tormented him.

The reason why Savage Mountain is called Savage Mountain, of course, has its origins. It is said that there are not only savages here, but also savages here cannibalize people.

The animals in the Burma jungle seemed to be equipped with radar detectors. The eyes of the team were hungry with green lights, and they wanted to hunt to get some food, but they couldn't see any living animals at all.You can feel that the whole jungle is full of life, full of danger, but when you really look for this life, you can't find anything.

Not even a pheasant can be shot.

The only things I can see are all kinds of poisonous insects, poisonous spiders and poisonous plants, which cannot be eaten, and some plants are not recognized at all.

I was so hungry that I also tried to eat those plants I didn't know. In the end, many people died of it.

That night was not peaceful.The crowd really encountered the savage.

To be honest, Song Feng couldn't see what the savages looked like. They moved too fast, shuttling through the woods, and everyone could only see black shadows, like lightning, like ghosts. There were screams in the team from time to time. After every scream, a person will disappear, and the place where the person who disappeared can only see a trace of being dragged and blood.

When you chase after the dragged blood, the trace will suddenly disappear under a certain big tree, and when you look up at the tree and forget about the embankment, you may be killed by another savage To be taken away.

In the end, the temporarily elected commander in the squad gave the order to run. The enemy was too strong, and there was no other choice but to run. Only how many could run.

Song Feng still remembers that the commander was Li Youde. During the retreat, the original commander in the team disappeared. In order to organize discipline, the remaining people elected a temporary commander.
