The Japanese army who fled in a hurry left a Chinese note on the road, and the Chinese Expeditionary Force smiled at it.

1942, the two divisions of the Chinese Expeditionary Force retreated to India for the first time and were reorganized into China's troops stationed in India. Under the leadership of Sun Liren and Stilwell, the two divisions put on a full set of American equipment and received all-round American training with the US military at the Ramga base in India.

1943, the Chinese Expeditionary Force prepared to launch a big counterattack in Myanmar. In order to supplement more troops, Chiang Kai-shek delivered a sermon of "one inch of mountains and rivers, one inch of blood, 100,000 young people and 100,000 troops". 1944, after everything was ready, the time for the big counterattack began.

At this time, the Indian troops stationed in China merged into a new army, which was directly commanded by Stilwell, with Zheng Dongguo as commander. General Sun Liren, who led the expeditionary force to retreat to India for the first time, was unexpectedly promoted and appointed as the deputy commander. At the same time, he served as the 38th division commander, and the 22nd division commander was still Liao Yaoxiang.

At this time, Stilwell ushered in the best time of his military career. He has hundreds of well-equipped troops and can mobilize hundreds of planes. More importantly, he is not worried about strategic materials. He shouted, "Go home!" 1942 revenge for defeat from Myanmar suddenly began to spread throughout the new army.

In the counterattack in northern Myanmar, the Sun Liren 38th Division, which has never failed, took on the pioneering task of destroying the Japanese army entrenched in the Hu Kang River valley of Savage Mountain.

Zhong Yunqing, who participated in this campaign, recalled: "In June, 5438+0944, 65438+ 10, we started to launch a counterattack. The Japanese made fortifications early, and the trees were hollowed out with sentries on them. Our search troops were beaten as soon as they left, and a group of people were sent, and none of them came back. "

The expeditionary force was defeated here for the first time, and now for the second time, the 38th Division is trapped here again. Sun Liren feel a little tricky, expeditionary force also unwilling. However, after figuring out the Japanese serial number, unexpectedly, the Chinese expeditionary force began to be strangely brave.

According to the survey, the Japanese troops stationed in the Hu Kang River Valley are the invincible Chrysanthemum Corps-18 Division. The July 7th Incident invaded China and participated in the Nanjing Massacre. 1940, the division was transferred to Vietnam to participate in jungle combat training, which was even more invincible in the subsequent Nanyang Islands War. However, the Japanese army never thought that there were China troops in its territory. To my surprise, my opponent, the 38th Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, is also a team that has never lost a battle.

65438124 October, the two armies began a formal exchange of fire. Zhong Yunqing still remembers: "The trees in the jungle are all hidden snipers of the Japanese army. In order to facilitate contact, we beat them down three times with machine guns to distinguish between the enemy and me ... In the jungle of savage mountain, piles of bones, we can often see that they are our compatriots. "

After the war started, the Japanese army often kept our army in the dark. A few months later, the Chinese expeditionary force made slow progress. At this time, Sun Liren was a little worried. After thinking for a long time, he thought of China's ancient circuitous tactics: attracting the enemy from the front with appropriate forces, opening a road in the forest, going around the enemy's back and cutting off the enemy's supply line. Chasing the Japanese everywhere.

As soon as this method was worked out, Sun Liren immediately set about implementing it. As soon as the troops arrived at the designated position, it worked. The Japanese troops were smashed one by one and fled everywhere. In the jungle war, the 38th Division finally began to feel at home. In the following seven days and seven nights of war, the 38th Division paid seven times the price of the Japanese army with 200 casualties. In the face of the tenacious attack of the 38th Division, the Japanese18th Division began to be defeated one after another. For this ace army, in the battle with China, it was the first time that it was defeated in such a mess.

When the Japanese 18 Division began to retreat, the 38th Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force began to pursue the victory. On the way across the Dalong River, the Chinese Expeditionary Force found many notes left by the Japanese army. The Chinese Expeditionary Force picked it up and spat. After reading it aloud, many people even laughed. It was originally written in Chinese characters: Brother China, stop chasing, this. Fortunately, the Japanese army failed to get this opportunity. After the Battle of Yubang, the Chinese Expeditionary Force continued to advance, and the whole war situation in northern Myanmar began to change. 1in March, 944, China and the United States jointly conquered Varuban and drove the Japanese army, known as the "king of jungle warfare", out of the Kang Hu Valley.
