I really came here to fight against Japan

Liao Simin: "Thank you brothers for looking up to me and being willing to come to my unit to help me.

There are many benefits to coming to my place. At least the chances of making meritorious contributions are greater than in other units."

The former prisoners of war didn't really care whether they had made any contribution or not.

The soldiers of the National Army know everything about what is happening around them.

If a soldier has made a contribution, he will always have an easier time than his superiors.

Sometimes you are not even given credit for your contribution, so where are you going to get the reward?

Even the Fifth Army tried to avoid vulgarity, and officers at all levels turned a blind eye.

In this way, everyone can be as innocent as Chen Tongguang, and avoid being labeled as a "red hat" again.

These soldiers who came to take the assessment were not just the prisoners of war.

There were also several platoon leaders from his machine gun company and soldiers pulled over from other combat units.

To put it bluntly, those soldiers were just "stooges" created to create atmosphere for Liao Simin.

No matter how good these people's machine gun skills are, Liao Simin dare not challenge them.

You have to know that these people are the backbone of their respective troops, and I dare not accept them.

Otherwise, the superiors of their army would come to him with guns in hand to demand the release of the person!

After Liao Simin gave them a look, everyone pretended to refuse, and those people came out in a hurry.

They all came to the machine gun position they had chosen and began to install bullets into the heavy machine guns, which was also to help Liao Simin warm up the scene.

Just as the bullet was placed, Squad Leader Jin was seen running towards him in a hurry.

"Captain Liao, according to the report from the observation post ahead, a Japanese reconnaissance plane is flying along the Nujiang River.

We kept all the reconnaissance troops they sent out because the Japs were afraid that we would discover them in the air early.

That’s why we used the method of flying at low altitude and sneaking over along the Nujiang River.”

Squad Leader Jin actually guessed it right. The air force of this Japanese reconnaissance plane was quite clever.

He also heard that within dozens of kilometers in the Baoshan area, small groups of infantry went there and never returned.

Even the reconnaissance plane that took off earlier never came back after it flew out.

He thought about the plane he was flying, which was just an old biplane.

If we just fly over there to scout the expeditionary force, we'd easily be shot down.

So when he was still 50 kilometers away from Baoshan County, he decided to fly low along the river.

The mountains in this area are high and steep. If you don't stand on the edge of the cliff, you can't see the Japanese planes below.

He relied on the slow speed of his plane and was not easily discovered when he flew through the valley.

What he didn't expect was that he was reported by Gannan's special forces as soon as he was flying along the river.

As soon as Squad Leader Jin finished speaking, the former prisoners of war wanted to run away.

Liao Simin shouted loudly: "What do you want to do?"

Prisoner A: "Sir, the Japanese planes are coming, let's run!"

Liao Simin: "The Japanese are sending a reconnaissance plane. Yes, it's a reconnaissance plane. What are you afraid of?"

Prisoner B: "Sir, the Japs are very fierce, let's get out of the way first!"

Liao Simin was angry. He shouted loudly at the prisoners of war.

"My eldest brother was called Liao Daming. He died for his country in Shanghai in 1937. He never avoided the limelight.

My second elder brother was named Liao Ermin. He died for his country at Zhonghuamen in 1938. He did not avoid the limelight either.

Now I, Liao Simin, am in Baoshan County. I don’t understand and I don’t know how to do any bullshit to avoid the wind and rain!

Now the men who still have testicles in their bodies, just stay on the side and watch how we fight the Japanese.

Come on, some guys, help me move the heavy machine gun forward.

If the Japanese plane dares to show up, we will shoot it down."

Prisoner C shouted, "So you are the famous Captain Liao.

Brothers, this is Captain Liao, the company commander who must be washed and the battalion commander who is invincible.

If we follow him, not only will we not be able to cleanse ourselves of the crime, but we might even have a chance to make meritorious contributions."

Liao Simin touched his chin and thought to himself: Am I already so famous in the army?

But what the hell is this “the company commander must die and the battalion commander is invincible”?

And brother, when you speak, can you please straighten your tongue first?

Encouraged by Liao Simin, several prisoners of war came over to help carry the heavy machine gun.

But when no one was paying attention, the three prisoners, A, B and C, lifted the Browning heavy machine gun on the cart over as well.

If Song Wenwan was present, she would have discovered that the identities of the three prisoners of war, A, B and C, were not simple.

Prisoner A is Meng Fanle, Prisoner B is Milong, and the prisoner C who speaks Cantonese is Lin Yile.

They were unlucky because Long Wenjian was snatched away by Song Wenwan in advance.

They did not run back to their country, but were captured by the Japanese.

It’s just that the Japanese were in urgent need of laborers to build roads and dig fortifications, so they didn’t kill them.

Later, the Japs captured a lot of British soldiers. As they had new targets for torture, they were taken to mines in the country to do hard labor.

If the 200th Regiment of the Expeditionary Force had not fought back today, they would have either died of exhaustion in Baoshan or been starved to death by the Japanese.

The three of them were not stupid but very smart. They obtained useful information from Liao Simin's few words.

The Japanese flew a reconnaissance plane, but it was not followed by any fighter planes or bombers.

The second is that the Japanese reconnaissance plane flew close to the narrow and winding river channel of the Nujiang River.

This means that the Japanese reconnaissance plane was not flying very fast, so they should be able to deal with it easily.

Since it's so easy to deal with, you might as well leave it to yourself.

Judging from what Captain Liao Simin meant, today is the day to be rewarded for your meritorious service.

They had been rescued once by the Expeditionary Force, and many Japanese soldiers had died.

If they were captured again, they would be doomed.

Since the only way to survive is to fight hard, I might as well fight for a bright future and return.

So when the three former prisoners of war saw that the heavy machine guns were being operated by someone, they no longer had any room to perform meritorious service.

It would be better to move a Browning heavy machine gun over there. No one will compete with them for it.

Milong is indeed an expert at machine gun operation. In less than half a minute, he had loaded the heavy machine gun with bullets.

They had just gotten ready on the top of the mountain when they heard the faint roar of the Japanese plane's engine coming from the river.

The sound made by the Japanese reconnaissance plane is too miserable.

The engine was making a rattling sound the whole time, as if it was going to fall apart at any moment.

It is not much better than the 28-inch bicycle in the homes of all the readers.

Milong's Browning heavy machine gun was placed at the westernmost position.

Meng Fanle was at the machine gun position and could already see the Japanese planes from afar.

He nervously shook Milong's heavy machine gun and shouted in panic: "Here they come, the Japanese planes are coming."

Lin Yi was even more timid, and his face, which was small to begin with, turned pale with fright.

His hands were nervously placed on Milong's arms, and he almost seemed to be hanging on Milong's body.

Milong was almost hit in the eye by the machine gun handle and quickly dodged backwards.

Milong: "Do you want to fight or not? Do you want to fight or not? If you keep messing with me, the enemy's planes would have already run away."

While they were talking, the machine gunners of the Kuomintang army opened fire.
