Chapter 274 Yuan Li
Canned food, fruits, cured meat... The soldiers brought the ready-made food in the Japanese camp.
They rushed towards the food like a hungry tiger, and began to swallow without saying a word.
"Oh, these people are hungry. I don't know that I haven't eaten a full meal in a long time." Bula shook his head and couldn't bear to look at it.
These people have no expression on their faces, their eyes are numb and empty, like bodies without souls, and they can only exercise some instinctive reactions.
It was not until the soldiers repeated over and over that we were the expeditionary forces and you were saved that some brilliance slowly regained the eyes of these people.
Several unshaven soldiers even hugged each other and cried bitterly, as if venting their long-standing emotions.
The soldiers of the Third Division silently stared at the beggar-like compatriots in front of them, and their hearts were also slightly sore.
They all have the same identity as themselves, but they are suffering here and tortured by the Japanese devils. The sadness in this is unimaginable.
"Here you join the seat!"
When everyone turned around, they saw Liao Mingyu walking towards him with people with great strides.
"So many people? Fuck it!" Seeing the tragic situation here, Liao Mingyu was so angry that he couldn't help but scold him loudly.
Hundreds of prisoners of war gathered in this small concentration camp. The dark life made them unable to see a glimmer of hope, so that most people are now in a state of confusion.
"Long Wen, counted the number of people and asked the medical staff to come over to check their health one by one, and then took them to have a good rest."
Liao Mingyu immediately issued an order, no matter what identity these people are, he would not let them go.
"clear!"
Just as Long Weng was about to arrange things, a young man in his twenties suddenly came out of the crowd.
"Dear sirs, I would like to express my sincere thanks to you on behalf of my soldiers!"
The young man stood up straight and saluted Liao Mingyu and the others with a standardized look. Although his face was as beautiful as a dish, his eyes were bright. A lieutenant colonel seal was vaguely visible at his shabby collar's neckline.
This young officer was obviously different from the other people's confused mood. He was polite in his conversation, neither arrogant nor humble. It can be seen that he should have some identity in his original army.
"Are you their commander? Tell me about the specific situation here." Liao Mingyu replied and asked curiously.
"Yes! Sir. My name is Yuan Li, formerly Lieutenant-Colonel Battalion Commander of the 1152nd Regiment of the 200th Division. Most of the soldiers here are from the 200th Division, and some local people..."
Young officer Yuan Li quickly told Liao Mingyu about their experience.
It turns out that this concentration camp detention site is basically the soldiers of the Chinese Expeditionary Army who were defeated and captured during the first battle in Myanmar.
Yuan Li's unit is the first mechanized unit of the National Government, the famous 200th Division in China.
As the main force in the expeditionary army, the 200th Division was one of the first Chinese troops to enter Myanmar in March 1942.
They became famous in the Battle of Defense of the United Gu, and still fought desperately under the situation of the enemy's numerous sieges without reinforcements. In the end, they annihilated more than 5,000 enemies and exerted the majesty of the Chinese Expeditionary Force.
General Dai even announced before the war: "If the commander of this division is killed in battle, the deputy commander will be replaced by the commander; the deputy commander of the division is killed in battle, the chief of staff will be replaced by the commander of the infantry, and all levels will be handled accordingly."
However, because the British army on the Western Front never took active actions and cooperated, and the British delay, the subsequent troops of the Expeditionary Force failed to transport them to the Tonggu Front as scheduled.
Although the results of the battle were brilliant, the 200th Division also paid a huge price. The entire division fought hard for 12 days, with more than 2,000 casualties. In addition, there was a shortage of food and ammunition inside and no reinforcements outside. Facing the enemy who was four times more than its own after reinforcements, he trapped the lonely city.
The situation was critical and he had to choose to break through.
Later, they followed the instructions of the Shangfeng to fight against Taungzhi, Larong and other places to cover the 5th Army. The 6th Army retreated to the country. Finally, when they crossed the Wild Renshan, they were ambushed by the 56th Japanese Division, and the troops were subsequently beaten.
After scattering, General Dai was seriously injured and died. The entire 200th Division withdrew less than 3,000 people from the country.
Due to consecutive battles and retreats, 9 18 Soviet-made T26 light tanks were damaged, and the rest could only be discarded.
But when they walked to the border town of Wanding Town, they were intercepted by the Japanese army. Yuan Li immediately led his troops to block the enemy, but was surrounded by the Japanese army because they were outnumbered. In the end, he was also captured due to injuries.
The 100,000 expeditionary troops who went to Myanmar for the first time were able to return safely, and tens of thousands of people died in foreign lands. There were countless soldiers captured by the enemy. When counting in the rear, they could only be counted as
When they disappeared, Yuan Li and his gang were one of them.
Later, the Japanese army occupied a large area of land west of Nujiang, and thousands of prisoners of war were escorted to Myanmar or Malaysia in batches.
If it is just an ordinary prisoner of war camp, it would be okay, but do you need to talk more about the virtues of the Japanese?
The reason why the Japanese did not kill them was nothing more than keeping them for great use. The Singapore-based unit of Gangzi 9420 requires a large number of live test items to be used to study new biological and chemical weapons, and these prisoners of war are the best candidates.
Because Longling also has a Biochemical Research Institute established by the 9420 unit of the Gang character, more than 2,000 prisoners of war, including Yuan Li, were also escorted here.
The military camp that Long Wen and the others discovered was the Japanese experimental center. In addition to prisoners of war, the Japanese also captured many people from the local area and accepted inhumane bacteria experiments.
These unscrupulous beasts conducted experiments on plague, typhoid, anthrax, tuberculosis, syphilis, etc. in order to develop more efficient biochemical weapons.
The concentration camp originally imprisoned thousands of Chinese people, but only a few hundred people have survived. The others were cruelly tortured and killed by the Japanese in various biochemical experiments.
Liao Mingyu sighed lightly, and felt somewhat empathetic when he heard Yuan Li's experiences. In fact, he and the Sichuan Army were like these people, struggling desperately in the torrent of defeat just to go home.
If it weren't for the system and its own foresight, it would have turned into a pile of dead bones in the primitive jungle, and would have been buried in a foreign land forever.
"I'm going to cut the prisoners alive now!"
"Tortoise lid, I'm the one!"
The honest personality of Yao Ma and Bula got angry when they heard this. As they said that, they wanted to find the captured Japanese to vent their anger.
Liao Mingyu curled his lips. Now that I think about it, it’s a bit cheaper to cut off my head. That group of Japanese devils should let them taste what real cruelty is.
"Those beasts have been chopped up by Chen Jize long ago. You can see them by going to the western highway now."
"ah?"
