240. Farewell to the first division

Leng Ren heard that the fighting behind him was very fierce. He raised his telescope and looked at it, which made him feel happy.

"Hahaha, the fighting started, it was like a bulldozer. In just a short time, the three lines of defense of the Japanese were flattened." Leng Renren said with a smile while watching the show.

"Let me take a look, let me take a look." Leng Feng snatched the telescope from Leng Renren and watched it with interest.

"It's still fun to fight with a large army." Shoufu sighed at the side.

"Not necessarily." Duan Er had experienced the Battle of Wuhan and witnessed with his own eyes General Zhang Zizhong's vow not to retreat until the end of the Battle of Zaoyi.

"Why are you pouring cold water on me?" Fugui said.

Adjutant Li also said with a heavy heart: "In fact, the war in Yunnan and Burma started off badly. Now that we have rescued the British and Burmese troops, the Japanese army will definitely take their anger out on the national army. It will be even more difficult for Commander Dai."

ah."

Lengrenren took the telescope from Lengfeng's hand. Adjutant Li's words brought Lengrenren back to reality. He didn't say much. He just focused on the road where the Japanese army might come for support and continued to hold on to his fighting position.

Yoshida Shoichi held a telescope and watched as the ferry defenders' position was broken through. However, it was a drop in the bucket to bring dozens of people there and could not solve the problem. He could only watch and lament in place.

When Sasaki wanted to mobilize troops to assist in the defense, it was already too late. Everything happened too fast. In desperation, Sasaki gathered the hundreds of soldiers around him and fought and retreated towards the commander.

Harada stood at the door of the tent, holding a telescope and watching the troops retreating steadily, but he was not too panicked. He just turned around and went back, preparing a white cloth and wiping the shining samurai sword with sake.

Sasaki led a group of soldiers over to protect the commander. When he walked into the tent, he saw that the commander was about to have his abdomen disemboweled.

"Co-captain, co-captain." Sasaki shouted, kneeling in front of Harada.

"Go out and take away the remaining Imperial Army warriors." Harada Tong made up his mind.

"Captain." Sasaki screamed a few times and made a bold decision. He directly called a few Japs in, took Harada's samurai sword away, and forced Harada to retreat towards the northwest.

Captain Liu led the entire regiment of warriors and pursued and killed more than two hundred Japanese soldiers at once, completely occupying the Pingqiang River Ferry.

Not long after, one of Scott's divisions moved in mightily. Arriving at the Pingqiang River, Scott's First Division received the most important strategic supplies, not oil, not weapons and ammunition.

Not armored vehicles, tanks or artillery, but the water of Pingqiang River.

Scott solemnly saluted Commander Liu and said to Commander Liu in English: "Thank you, Commander Sun, thank you Commander Liu. On behalf of the British-Burmese First Division and all of you rememberers and missionaries, I would like to thank your army for your military service."

A life-saving grace.”

Commander Liu stood at attention, saluted, and replied in fluent English: "We are all allies, and it is our duty to support each other."

"Oh, Captain Liu speaks English so fluently." Scott said in surprise.

"Our Commander Sun is more fluent in English. He is a top student at the Virginia Military Institute in the United States." Captain Liu said proudly.

"I admire you, I admire you. No wonder your army is so brave and beats the Japanese devils to pieces as soon as they attack," Scott said.

"I won't say any more polite words. The Japanese army will definitely counterattack in force. This is no place to stand. I wonder what your army's next plan is?" Captain Liu asked.

"Go to India. If you need help one day, we in British India welcome you to be our guests."

"Thank you. Please tell me if you need more. Please hurry up and march. After covering your army's retreat, I will lead the team back to the division headquarters to resume operations."

"Well, let's just say goodbye, as the Chinese say, the days ahead will be long."

"There is ample time."
