    > Tengchong, a beautiful ancient city in China on the Yunnan-Myanmar border, has now become an important logistics supply base for the ** Division in the border area. It took a month for an engineering brigade unit each of the directly affiliated corps and the Sulu Mobile Corps.  During the period, the road from Tengchong to Myitkyina was widened. Therefore, what the military jeeps saw along the way was a busy and tense scene of constant traffic of military vehicles.  { net. . . }

    Colonel Whitney, who had never been to Burma, thought he had reached the front line. He couldn't help but become nervous and looked around. The convoy entered Tengchong, and several Americans were arranged into a remote courtyard. This is a very typical building in western Yunnan.  The charming courtyard exudes simplicity and vicissitudes of life. It is shaded by green trees, has quiet paths, and a gurgling stream winds through the courtyard.

    Shen Jun warned: "Colonel Whitney, because we have been fighting frequently with the Japanese army recently, the Japanese army has sent many small troops to penetrate into our rear to carry out assassinations and sabotage. For the personal safety of the Allied field supervisors, without my  "Permission, please don't leave this place, Mr. Colonel, otherwise, we cannot guarantee your safety."

    Whitney, who had been staying with MacArthur at the US military headquarters in Manila, had smelled the smell of gunpowder smoke. Along the way, the tense atmosphere of the impending war had already made the pampered American colonel tremble with fear. In addition, Shen Jun's words  , feeling that Japanese soldiers might be ambushed behind the rockery, hearing this, he couldn't help but nodded.

    Just as Shen Jun was about to leave, Whitney remembered his mission and said hurriedly: "Colonel Shen, you immediately arrange for people to set up our radio station. I want to contact the Manila headquarters. Also, when can I see your army?"  Commander Tang, there is a verbal order from Commander MacArthur, which must be conveyed in person? "

    Shen Jun replied readily: "There is no problem in setting up the radio station. I will arrange for someone to do it right away. As for the division commander who wants to see us, it just so happens that the division commander arrived at the Libao front line a few days ago to arrange things before the attack. In this way, I will report  Let¡¯s see when the teacher has time?¡±

    Shen Jun's very cooperative attitude gave Whitney a very good impression of this Chinese military official. He smiled rarely and patted Shen Jun on the shoulder. His attitude was not very affectionate, but he had the air of an imperial envoy and looked condescending.  The style.

    After Shen Jun went out, he said to several technicians from the Technical Section of the Investigation Department: "Erect a radio station for the Americans. However, no matter what method you use to make the American radio stations unusable, you still have to find no faults." Several technicians  He smiled and said: "Director, don't worry, this is a very simple matter, there are hundreds of ways.

    Shen Jun then ordered the company commander in charge of the guard: "No one is allowed to contact these Americans without my order, and don't let them leave here. If they make a noise and go out, you might as well scare them. You can do it."  Be clever and don¡¯t show any flaws.¡±

    After arranging to get together, Shen Jun rushed to Myitkyina and reported the whole process to the division commander Tang Qiuli in person. In fact, Shen Jun was very dissatisfied with the division commander's arrangement to treat several Americans like this. It was very simple according to his intention.  Just blast them back and get it done. Who are the Yankees?  It's a habit of coming to the doctor to tell you what to do!

    After listening to Shen Jun's report, Tang Qiuli nodded and said: "The arrangements are very good. They are provided with food and drink, but they cannot contact the outside world. Shen Jun, I know you think that I made simple things complicated. Of course.  , We can completely ignore the Americans, but after all, there is an Allied Theater Command, and we don¡¯t need to make things rigid, which will be detrimental to our next plan.¡±

    Shen Jun saw through the teacher's thoughts and smiled in an awkward manner. Sure enough, Whitney and several other Americans, after being under house arrest for two days, probably figured out something interesting. In addition, the radio station was not good no matter what.  As a result, with the arrival of the radio technician, he was helpless, lost contact with the Manila headquarters, and was not allowed to leave the yard. Whitney finally lost his temper.

    Whitney clamored to see Shen Jun and said, "It is absolutely intolerable to treat the field supervisor of the Allied Frontline Command like this. I will go to the Allied Headquarters to sue you!" After arguing for a long time,  No one paid any attention to them. As a last resort, Whitney went on a hunger strike and refused to eat, claiming, "I will not resume eating until I see Tang Qiuli and give myself a satisfactory answer!"

    At night, suddenly a burst of fierce gunfire rang out around the yard. Several Americans woke up from their dreams. They were so frightened that they were wrapped in quilts and covered with chaff. Several Japanese Army guards rushed in with the smell of gunpowder smoke.  , without any explanation, pulled several Americans out of bed, pinned them to the ground, used their bodies as meat pads, and looked nervously outside the house with guns in hand, as if facing a formidable enemy.

    It wasn¡¯t until four or five o¡¯clock in the morning that the gunfire calmed down. The Americans, who had been pinned down for several hours, got up and asked the guards in shock what happened.What happened, who were you fighting with?  A few soldiers had serious faces and didn't say a word. Not long after, the guard company commander came in with a dark face and a plutonium rifle in his hand, and told Whitney and others.

    "Last night, a Japanese squad sneaked into the vicinity of the headquarters and had a fierce battle with our guards. Both sides suffered casualties. Judging from their attack target, it should be the Allied Field Supervisor's station. The most dangerous thing is,  More than a dozen Japanese soldiers have sneaked into your camp. If my soldiers had not fought hard to stop them, your lives would have been greatly threatened. For this reason, I have killed six soldiers and injured more than a dozen. "

    Whitney was in shock. She rolled her blue eyes and trembled with the fat on her cheeks. As if she had seen her benefactor, she held the guard company commander's hand and kept saying "Thank you!" The company commander also told him, "  Our intelligence department has uncovered a hidden spy organization in Japan. According to the Japanese spies, their main goal is to find opportunities to assassinate members of the Allied field supervisors. From now on, our security measures will be even stricter."

    After that, Whitney and other Americans became more well-behaved and obedient than the model students. They no longer clamored to see Tang Qiuli, and did not want to go to the front line. They wanted to see whether the Japanese army had carried out the alliance's plan.  According to the orders of the military theater headquarters, every day is to eat and sleep well, and eat well, which is similar to raising pigs. Otherwise, in the yard, I raise my neck and stare blankly at the blue sky of western Yunnan, the early autumn sky, and the occasional falling rain.  A yellow leaf.

    The Hukang Valley Incident also came to an end, and it was still the old rule. Tang Qiuli ignored the British diplomatic note, but his subordinates showed no mercy. They were surrounded by the ninth brigade of the Directly Affiliated Corps in Homalin.  Thousands of British troops in the area were sleepy for several days and lacked food and drink. Finally, they couldn't bear to eat anymore, and the British brigade commander made a request for negotiations.

    After Tang Qiuli received the telegram from brigade commander Li Haijiang, he called back, "Brigade Commander Li Haijiang must teach the British a profound lesson and let them know that Myanmar is no longer a colony of the British, but our army's  The occupied area is equivalent to the territory of the Republic of China. Tell the British brigade commander to send someone with weight. He is not qualified to negotiate with us. You will handle this matter as my plenipotentiary representative, and you must redeem it by redemption.  To save the lives of thousands of British soldiers, you can control the specific price and let the British pay some blood!"

    After receiving the telegram from the division commander, Li Haijiang laughed loudly and said to his two regiment commanders: "The division commander's move is really amazing. To me, it looks like a kidnapping by a bandit! After this blow, the British still don't cry for father and mother."  ? Tell me, how much is an Englishman worth? Let¡¯s not set it too low, it will dissatisfy these British guys!¡±

    I don¡¯t know the specific details of Li Haijiang¡¯s negotiations with the British. A few days later, the British troops surrounded in the Homalin area returned to Imphal in despair, and they also left a letter of guarantee, guaranteeing that there would be no  With the permission of General Tang Qiuli, the top commander of the ** division, British armed personnel are not allowed to step into the territory of Myanmar. Otherwise, it will be regarded as an invasion of the territory of the Republic of China.

    This guarantee is very weighty and was signed by the special plenipotentiary of the British Governor in India. In other words, regardless of the British domestic attitude, the British in India have recognized that Myanmar is the sphere of influence of the Japanese Army. As for how they  Report it to Prime Minister Churchill and the Cabinet, then you won't know.

    Tang Qiuli read Li Haijiang's telegram and applauded, "Okay, Li Haijiang did this beautifully. He took thousands of British soldiers as hostages, pressed the British's necks, and signed a guarantee. As for what the British will do in the future."  If they don't admit it, then it's up to them." After saying that, he took out a list and handed it to Major General Zhang Quan, the logistics director of the ** Division and commander of the Joint Rear Service Command, who came to him to complain.

    Looking at Zhang Quan's confused eyes, Tang Qiuli said with a smile: "Commander Zhang, don't blame me for crying. I know that the Logistics Department has been spending a lot of money these days, especially to purchase a large amount of engineering equipment.  Also, the construction of the field airport in Myitkyina makes you feel distressed, but Li Haijiang has found someone to pay for it!"

    Zhang Quan took the list and looked at it. He was happy at that time and said: "Commander, this kid Li Haijiang is ruthless enough. He took advantage of the British. With this income, let alone building a Myitkyina field airport."  , even if you repair two more, it will be more than enough, more than a thousand kilograms of gold, which is hard currency." After that, he happily put the list into his pocket.

    Ito was still trying his best to add flesh to his body, trying to grow stronger quickly, and then fight against Tang Qiuli. MacArthur, who was far away in Manila, silently ate a piece of Tang Qiuli's body, and his imperial envoy Hui  Colonel Turney was so confused by Shen Jun that he did not dare to go out even half a step. The British suffered a big loss and had their teeth knocked out and swallowed.

    Tang Qiuli could breathe a sigh of relief and concentrate on waiting for MacArthur to take action so that he could continue and fight with the Americans. At this moment, something happened in the country.
