In the end, Zhang Chi told Slim about the plan. After all, this was interspersed in Ren'anqiang, and the Engineer Regiment needed to contact the British army trapped in Ren'anqiang.
Zhang Chi always remembered the surprised expression on his face when Slim heard this plan... This plan was unimaginable for the British army. The British army could basically not fight as long as they left the road, and it would be even worse if they walked into the jungle. Even British officers might be hated by Burmese soldiers looking for an opportunity to kill them.
"What do you need?" Slim said after being stunned: "I will try my best to satisfy you!"
"We need a radio station that can contact the British army of Ren'an-Kang!" Zhang Chi said: "We also need a few radio soldiers and people who can prove that we are going to rescue Ren'an-Kang!"
The radio station soldiers were needed because Zhang Chi was worried that the radio station soldiers of the Engineer Regiment could not operate the British radio station, and even if they could operate it, they could not decode the British telegram.
As for another proof, it was to worry about unnecessary misunderstandings between the British army and the Engineer Corps... After all, the Engineer Corps was disguised as the Burmese Volunteer Army, and Zhang Chi did not want the British army of Ren'anqiang to regard them as enemies.
After thinking about it, Zhang Chi said again: "It's best to give us some clothes and headscarves for the Burmese people!"
Originally, Zhang Chi wanted Slim to assign a few Myanmar soldiers. After all, they had advantages in language and geographical terms, but in the end Zhang Chi gave up... If these Myanmar soldiers were interested in the Myanmar Independence Volunteers or themselves, they would be led astray by them and they would be in a greater danger.
So Zhang Chi chose to do it himself. After all, this is Qiao Kebadang, a small Myanmar town. It is not difficult to find out from the people about a path leading to Ren'anqiang from the mouths of the people through his Burmese language. Zhang Chi even thought about it and chose to ask overseas Chinese for safety.
"No problem!" Slim agreed without thinking: "I will deliver the clothes and turban to you in half an hour. You can take them to the radio and radio soldiers now, prove it... Andy, you and Scott are friends, and you are the most convincing to go!"
"What?" Andy couldn't help but be stunned: "But the general..."
"No, but! This is an order!" Slim interrupted him.
"Yes! General!" Andy stood up helplessly.
"I'm glad to work with you again!" Zhang Chi walked to Andy and stretched out her hand, with a thief smile on her face.
Andy didn't want to pay attention to Zhang Chi's gloating, but under Slim's eyes, he had to stretch out his hand and gritted his teeth and replied: "I'm very happy too, Lieutenant!"
Andy's tone intentionally aggravated when she said the word "Second Lieutenant".
Zhang Chi was stunned. Unexpectedly, Andy would still emphasize in front of him that the title of English that would not work for Chinese people.
"Okay!" Since Andy is so ignorant, Zhang Chi is not polite. Zhang Chi said to Andy in an orderly tone: "Col. Andy, your task is to manage the radio and radio soldiers well, ensure that the radio soldiers can work normally, and ensure that the radio soldiers and you do not fall behind or become deserters. Can you do it?"
"What..." Andy looked at Zhang Chi with an incredible expression, a second lieutenant, and a Chinese second lieutenant, who dared to speak like this to a colonel of the British Empire in this tone.
Zhang Chi ignored Andy's expression and turned to ask Slim: "Do you agree with this decision? General?!"
"Of course!" Slim wanted to answer.
Although Slim did not want the British Empire's soldiers to be insulted like this, the overall situation should be the priority now.
"Can you do it? Colonel Andy!" Zhang Chi turned around and continued to ask.
Andy gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word from his teeth: "Yes!"
"I didn't hear it!"
"Yes, Lieutenant!" Andy replied: "I can do it!"
"Very good!" Zhang Chi was very satisfied with this answer. Then he ignored Andy, who was full of anger, and walked out of the door while saying: "Col. Andy, you can only take the radio station to the regiment headquarters to report within ten minutes! By the way, you have changed your military uniform, I don't want to expose the entire army because of you!"
"God, let the Japanese kill me!" Zhang Chi heard Andy's cry behind her.
Two hours later, the engineering regiment set out. They walked down the Bin River for a few miles in the dusk and lurked in the jungle for a little rest until it became dark and began to cross the river under the guidance of their guide.
As Zhang Chi had guessed before, the Japanese interspersed troops were not tightly surrounded by Ren'anqiang due to their empty troops, and there was no shadow of the Japanese army in this area.
"Second Lieutenant!" After crossing the river Andy rushed up panting: "We have to speed up, the soldiers of Ren'anqiang can no longer hold on!"
"Why can't they hold on?" Zhang Chi asked in confusion: "Are any Japanese troops attacking them?"
"No, no..." Andy replied: "It's because there is no food and water. If we don't arrive, Scott will choose to surrender!"
Zhang Chi was a little bit thundered, and was about to surrender because she was hungry after drinking. You should know that it was just the third day.
However, this seems not surprising. Zhang Chi knows that the cultural background of Western soldiers is allowed to surrender when they cannot be defeated and cannot escape. Even making unnecessary sacrifices without surrender will be regarded as an "unreasonable" and "stupid" behavior.
But who can define what situation is "unbeatable" and "unbeatable to escape"? For example, now, Ren'anqiang has a full chance to escape and a full chance to defeat the Japanese army in Binhe, but they do nothing, and that kind of values just happen to be their timid and timid battle.
"Tell them!" Zhang Chi said: "Let them persevere for another night. If we haven't arrived before dawn, then they can choose to surrender!"
"Yes!" Andy responded, but then he realized that he was used to following Zhang Chi's orders, and couldn't help but curse in his heart, "Damn it."
To cover up this, Andy continued: "Yes, Lieutenant, I will convey your suggestions to General Scott!"
"Col. Andy!" Zhang Chi responded dissatisfiedly: "You know very well that we are now disguising as the Myanmar Independence Volunteers, and English is generally not available in the Myanmar Independence Volunteers. So, you can try to say less unnecessary nonsense unless you want to expose the entire force to the enemy!"
"Yes!" Andy responded helplessly.
Although he didn't want to be called around by Zhang Chi like this, he also knew that Zhang Chi was right. If there were Japanese or Burmese sentries hiding in the dark, hearing the English conversation would easily expose the entire army.
