Chapter 28 Origin
Under everyone's surprised eyes, Liao Guoren calmly told the whole story -
Liao Guoren originally belonged to a guerrilla detachment of the Fifth Army. As Zhao Bankuo and the others had learned before, he and Xiao Daozi had a superior-subordinate relationship. During the great rout, the organization of the troops to which they belonged was completely lost. Under the crazy pursuit of the Japanese army,
They wandered aimlessly in the jungle for a month and entered the hinterland of Savage Mountain. At that time, there were still more than 700 people left in total. They rested in the hinterland of Savage Mountain for two days and divided their troops into two groups to raid from the inside out. Now they are where
The location was the place where they rested. At that time, they had two choices. Go north to the cliff where Zhao Bankuo found the American body, and the other was the way they came this time. Later, Liao Guoren was responsible for covering the retreat of the large army.
They set up defenses on the road while others broke out towards the cliff. But the strange thing was that Liao Guoren stayed in ambush for three days without waiting for any Japanese troops. They returned along the original road and found that the Japanese soldiers who were chasing them at that time had no intention of attacking them.
The small group of guerrillas had no interest at all, but turned around and turned towards the defeated large forces of other expeditionary forces.
Fortunately, they broke through between several battle groups and returned to Tengchong, but the brothers they covered never showed up again. During the following period, Liao Guoren rested in Tengchong. He did not expect that he was in the Savage Mountain.
This experience will change everything in the future.
A month later, senior military officers summoned him and told him this: the New 38th Division once rescued a group of British people in Ren'anqiang. This was the result of their New 38th Division's victory after entering Myanmar.
The longest battle - at that time, the First Division of the British and Indian Army was surrounded by the Japanese army in the Ren'anqiang Oil Field in Myanmar. The New 38th Division, under the leadership of General Sun Liren, launched a fierce attack on the Japanese army that besieged the British army, forcing the Japanese army to retreat.
After retreating, they even launched a counter-siege against the Japanese troops. After fierce fighting, they rescued more than 7,000 officers and soldiers of the British-Indian First Division and the 7th Armored Brigade. They also rescued a total of British soldiers, priests, journalists, etc. who were captured by the Japanese troops.
More than five hundred people.
Everyone nodded slightly when they heard what Liao Guoren said. This incident was very sensational in the early days of the expeditionary force's entry into Myanmar. It was also the proudest battle of their new 38th Division, and everyone was familiar with it.
Liao Guoren went on to say that among the British who were rescued at that time, there was a group of missionaries. These missionaries were the last group of devout believers who persisted in preaching in Southeast Asia at that time. They had persisted in a very harsh environment for more than 20 years, so
They were very familiar with the customs of the local people. Therefore, the British Expeditionary Force relied on these missionaries as guides.
this
He provided the missionaries with a very important piece of information. Liao Guoren had no way of knowing what this piece of information was. But now it seems that there must be a group of American troops trapped in Savage Mountain and they need to be rescued.
Because of the joint operations agreement that year, the American war zone was not here, so Liao Guoren was very strange. But among all the expeditionary forces, only his unit had experience in traveling through the core hinterland of Savage Mountain, so the task fell to them.
On the head.
However, the teams that experienced the defeat at Savage Mountain are generally unwilling to enter Savage Mountain again, and it is very cruel. Most people only have fear of Savage Mountain and have no so-called experience, because there is no such thing as such in such an extreme environment.
You have the time and energy to experience the experience. Therefore, in the end, except for Liao Guoren and Xiaodaozi, everyone else was selected temporarily.
Because Liao Guoren is entirely responsible for it and it is a confidential task, this can also explain why there is nothing on their transfer list.
Everyone has experienced what happened next. They raided the remaining Japanese troops and seized the box. The moment they saw the box, Liao Guoren immediately realized that their response mission had failed.
, the American team apparently encountered the remnant Japanese soldiers and was eaten. Therefore, Liao Guoren immediately sent a telegram, and from then on, the situation is now.
After that, everyone fell silent. The entire explanation was basically acceptable, but to put it bluntly, they still didn't know what they were going to do.
Changmao asked: "So, captain, this matter is not our matter, it is the matter of the Americans. You already knew that there were Americans here?"
Liao Guoren nodded. The military doctor said: "British foreign monk, American idiot, damn, is there some kind of quarrel between the old British and the old Americans that we don't know about?"
Liao Guoren said: "From the information given to me, this American team has the same number of people as us, so they are also performing special tasks in the jungle. The group of British monks are not suspicious. They may just pass on what they heard."
Some information, this information reached the ears of Americans through our military department, and then our mission came about. Later, I thought about it carefully and found that there are some interesting points in it."
Everyone gathered closer. Liao Guoren continued: "I find it strange. First, if there were not that group of British missionaries, then the Americans would not know where the American team was. In other words, the team itself
Yes and the United States
We lost contact with the other side. But if that’s the case, then how did we come up with the pick-up location for the response mission we carried out? How did the United States know where the team that lost contact would appear?”
"Could it be agreed in advance?" Changmao asked.
"No, if the agreement is made, there will be nothing wrong with the British monk."
"That is?"
"I think it is very likely that the British foreign monk gave the information about the pick-up location to our military headquarters." Liao Guoren said, "In other words, the American team had an encounter with the British after some kind of adventure in the jungle.
We contacted them and told them the location of the response, but this created a contradiction. They had lost contact with the headquarters at that time, so why didn't they stay with the British and wait for rescue, but just gave them the response information and left."
Liao Guoren stopped, and they looked at each other. Wang Sixiang said: "This should be related to their purpose. Maybe, their purpose is very, very important, and their survival is insignificant compared to this purpose."
One night some time ago, a mysterious U.S. military team parachuted into the hinterland of the Savage Mountains to perform a mission unknown to anyone. Then they lost contact with the headquarters. A group of British missionaries passed through
The message they left behind was received in some way, but this team never appeared again. The only thing that can prove their existence is the mysterious map in the map box.
This mysterious map indicates an area in the Savage Mountain, and Zhao Bankuo and the others have arrived at this area by following this map in the opposite direction.
At this point, some of the questions lingering in the minds of Zhao Bankuo and others were finally solved by Liao Guoren, and the uncomfortable pressure eased a lot. But at the same time, they also felt a trace of fear.
The fear of veterans is different from others. They are not afraid of death. This fear comes from their judgment of things. Zhao Bankuo thought of the Japanese squad that had been following them like ghosts, with such sophisticated equipment and high combat literacy.
, if it weren’t for luck and Liao Guoren’s accurate judgment of the environment here, they would never have come here alive.
It is impossible for the Americans to be interested in anything in the Savage Mountains, and it is impossible for the Japanese to be so interested in them. Obviously, they are now involved in a very, very important game war for both sides of the war, and the purpose of the game is
in the jungle near them.
