"Captain, you have to give me an explanation. My scouts said that when they rushed back to Ledo, the warehouse was still intact. Why did the warehouse catch fire and burn to ruins after you borrowed their jeep?"
"Wallace, who then returned to Lido with a large force, saw the burned warehouse in person, and then came to Tangcheng aggressively with his men. The meaning of his words was that Tangcheng had been determined to be involved in the warehouse matter.
It was a trick.
Tang Cheng turned sideways and let Wallace take a look at the broken position behind him, and said with a smile, "Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, have you seen the position behind me? There are also the corpses of those Japanese soldiers. Do you think the Japanese army attacked Lieduo?"
How many? Your 40mm anti-aircraft gun can be killed by them. Do you really think I can defend your warehouse?" Tang Cheng didn't explain too much to Wallace, he just looked dead.
An expression of disbelief.
Tangcheng refused to admit the blame, and Wallace had no choice. Fortunately, Tangcheng gave some of the credit for defeating the Japanese army to the British army. According to the battle report compiled by Tangcheng, at least this wooden bridge was built by Wallace and his men.
The soldiers guarded it. Wallace did not refuse Tang Cheng's kindness. In fact, he could not refuse. The supplies in the warehouse were looted by Tang Cheng. This responsibility needs to be borne by Wallace. With the ability to fight against the Japanese army and defeat the opponent
With this credit, there is still room for maneuver in this matter, and maybe the warehouse matter can really be pushed to the Japanese army.
"Don, you are a bad guy, but you are an upright bad guy." George, who was hiding aside and watching the excitement, was a little disappointed. He was disappointed that Wallace did not attack Tang Cheng on the spot. He wanted to see Tang Cheng collapse with his men.
What kind of scene is it like when Bing and Wallace fight? "I want to tell you a good news, and I think you will be happy to hear it." George pretended to be mysterious and took Tang Cheng to find a place where no one was around, and whispered
He said, "I have already contacted Mike. In a few days, he will come to Liedo with a batch of supplies to join us. This time, he will have the heavy firepower you need."
Mike's return means that he has reached an agreement with the US military observation group. As long as Mike and the supplies arrive, Tang Cheng and the defeated troops under him who are willing to follow will become a member of the Sino-US joint force. Tang Cheng has since
He has never doubted Mike, but he is not very interested in the Sino-US joint force that Mike mentioned. If possible, he would rather take Hou San and the others to Kunming to continue living in the shelter. "Then what do you do?
What to do? Not going back to the flying team?" Tang Cheng noticed that George used the word "we" and asked with some confusion.
George smiled nonchalantly, and then looked at Tang Cheng in surprise, "Tang, I am not an active soldier, I am just a volunteer who came to China to help in the war. After the war, I need to return to the United States to find a job to support my family.
Can you bear to see me helpless for the rest of my life?" Putting his arm around Tang Cheng's shoulders, George smiled and said, "I'm still thinking about those boxes we snatched from the Japanese soldiers along the way. Those things are enough.
We all live like tycoons."
Tang Cheng tried his best to break away from George. He didn't expect that this guy was willing to stay in Lieduo for those things. If George hadn't mentioned those things now, Tang Cheng might have completely forgotten such a thing. "Tang Cheng
, you have to know that I am a pilot and have a good relationship with the guys in the flying team. If you want to take those things out of Myanmar, you can't do without my help. I can just find a plane and I can help you get those things.
Ship it to Kunming. There is a Citibank in Kunming. As long as you deposit the things in their safe, no one can take them away."
Looking sideways at George, Tang Cheng suppressed a smile in his heart. This guy now didn't look like a pilot who dared to fly a fighter plane to fight the Japanese army, but more like a calculating and sinister businessman in the black market. Tang Cheng looked at George but remained silent.
This made George panic, "Don, I know what I just said was a bit hasty, but you can't kick me out. I should be involved in that matter. You can't exclude me, otherwise we will no longer be friends."
.”
Tang Cheng had never cared much about money. He didn't expect that George would say such things just for a few possessions, and even use his friendship with him as an issue. "Tang, what I want to go back to is the United States.
, not you China. In the United States, only with money can you have a good life, and only with money can you have everything. Do you think there are no beggars in the United States?" After learning about Tang Cheng's doubts, George said something to Tang Cheng with a grimace.
Life in the United States has made China sigh with dismay. I dare say that the United States is a paradise for the rich just like Shanghai.
"I didn't say I wouldn't give it to you. It's you who is impatient. Do you allow me to speak? From the beginning to now, I have always listened to you." After hearing George's plan to take those things out of Myanmar,
To be honest, Tang Cheng was indeed moved. "Sir, a group of guys from the expeditionary force headquarters came here. They said they were looking for you, but I looked like they were looking for trouble." Tang Cheng was being pulled by George to discuss.
How to deal with those buried things? Yang Laosan, who led people to alert Li Duo, came over stomping around.
"Expeditionary Force Headquarters? Aren't they at the training camp in Lanmugarong? Why did they come to us?" George's reaction was quick. When he contacted Mike on the radio, he heard Mike mention that the expeditionary force was in Lanmugarong.
Muga joined forces with the US military to set up a training camp. Tang Cheng glanced at the group of people stopped by Yang Laosan's soldiers from a distance, and then led George and Yang Laosan to greet them with a calm expression. After all, he and Yang Laosan
These broken troops under his command are all nominally part of the expeditionary force, and they cannot hide from them.
"Are you Tang Cheng? The captain who defended Lido with 200 defeated troops?" The leader of the visitors to the expeditionary force headquarters was a colonel. Maybe he felt that the smell here was not very good, so the colonel who spoke also took out a handkerchief.
He covered his mouth and nose. The expeditionary force headquarters learned about the collapse of a group of Chinese troops and defended Ledo from the US military observer group. The person who revealed the news was naturally Mike, who was eager to form a Sino-US joint force.
After hearing the news, the entire expeditionary force headquarters was immediately in an uproar. The 200 skirmishers of the national army were able to hold on to Lieduo with few soldiers and ammunition. This was a good thing. But the big guys at the expeditionary force headquarters were
They didn't think so. They thought that this little captain in Tangcheng made them very passive. Why didn't they contact the headquarters in advance or submit the battle report to Ramga as soon as possible after the war?
The attitude and tone of the other colonel's words deliberately made Tang Cheng have a premonition that nothing good would happen next, so Tang Cheng didn't say anything, but just nodded and admitted that he was Tang Cheng. There were Japanese troops in Lieduo, this
The news has been spreading in Lambgar. Being sent by the headquarters from Lambgar to Ledo to reorganize Tang Cheng and others is already a hard job. Seeing that Tang Cheng has such an attitude now, he covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
The colonel immediately became angry.
"Tang Cheng, you are just a little captain. Do you know what it means to be humble? Is this the way you should respond to a superior?" The colonel pointed his halberd at Tang Cheng, who didn't care at all, and cursed, and followed him. The group of people also began to denounce Tang Cheng, and some even called for the guards to arrest Tang Cheng and hold him accountable.
"Sirs, it's not that Tang doesn't want to answer you, it's just that his throat has been inflamed and he really can't speak. If you don't believe it, you can go to the hospital in Lieduo to check the records. I think you will be able to find Tang and go to the hospital to get medicine. Records." Seeing that the two sides were about to have a stalemate, George, who had been silent, quickly stopped him. The excuse he gave Tang Cheng was not a coincidence. Anyway, he knew that these guys from the expeditionary force headquarters would not go to the hospital to check any records. As long as Tang Cheng is speechless at this moment, it will be useless even if the other party talks about it.
George showed his identity as a US military member in a timely manner, and the guys who were calling for arrest were a little bit confused now. Some Americans proved to Tang Cheng that they can't make a fuss about Tang Cheng's inability to speak. That would be The Americans would be offended. With George's involvement, the other party finally suppressed their anger. However, in front of Tang Cheng, the leading colonel of the other party made it clear about the purpose of their visit.
Knowing that these people were sent by the headquarters to reorganize him, Tang Cheng just smiled but did not express his position. George had already said that Mike would arrive in Liduo in two days. As long as he survives these two days, these people under him will No one could leave. Seeing that neither Tang Cheng nor George had any obvious objections, the guys from the headquarters began to take out their cameras and take pictures of the position. Of course, they did not forget the buried corpses of Japanese soldiers. , the worst case scenario is to dig it out first and bury it again.
"Tang, they are here to seize power. You can't let them take your people away, otherwise when Mike comes, everything will be in trouble." Seeing that Tang Cheng had not spoken, George was a little anxious. "Only just You can't rely on just a few of you. In the joint force that Mike wants to form, you must have at least 120 troops. I heard from Mike that this unit leader has the rank of major."
"Don't worry, brothers are all lying in the hospital right now. There are only less than 40 people here. What can they organize? Besides, I will lead a group of people across the river tomorrow to clear out the remaining Japanese troops. They are willing to face A squad of people are reorganizing, so we let them do it. Anyway, as long as I cross the river, I won't be able to get back in three to five days." A smile appeared on Tang Cheng's face, he, a captain, couldn't possibly It was hard to be tough on the people at the headquarters, but I was crossing the river to clear out the Japanese troops, and who could tell me a specific time?
