Walking through the rainforest in the mountains, Cai Rui finally understood the hardships of the expedition army in his previous life. He had only entered the rainforest for less than two days, but his arm was already covered in red spots from the mosquito bites in the forest.
Some of the weaker soldiers couldn't stand the high temperature of the rainforest, and some of them got heatstroke. Fortunately, Cai Rui ordered the 1st Division to bring enough medicine when they entered the rainforest, so there weren't too many casualties.
But even so, in the past two days, the number of soldiers of the 1st Division who had collapsed due to the high temperature had reached 67.
Regarding this, Cai Rui did not have a good solution. Speed was the most important thing in war. He could not let the 10,000 men of the 1st Division delay the entire division's marching speed for a few dozen people.
They could only send out a platoon and a medical team to gather the soldiers who had fallen behind and suffered heatstroke. They were ordered to rush to the main force from the rear.
Even Li Yunlong couldn't say anything about this. After all, this was the best way to deal with the situation.
Hard work paid off. After traveling through the rainforest between Yunnan and Myanmar for half a month, Cai Rui and Li Yunlong finally found the traces of the Anglo-French coalition forces in the rainforest 50 miles away.
"Reporting to the Major, we discovered the enemy here!”
In front of Cai Rui, a Yunnan Army scout unfolded a map and pointed at a marked location on the map. It was the old street station of the China-Vietnam highway.
"Damn it, these Anglo-French allied forces are really a bunch of officials. They are marching openly on the road. Aren't they afraid that we will ambush them on both sides of the road and take the opportunity to catch them off guard?”
Thinking of how his 1st division could only travel through the Cloud Forest for the past few days, Li Yun Long could not help but feel furious.
"This is the foundation of the old imperials. With the reconnaissance and protection of the planes in the sky, there is no need to worry that they will be killed if they march boldly!”
"On the contrary, our country is weak. Facing the British and French troops supported by enemy planes, in order to reduce casualties and hide our tracks, we can only march in the rainforest!”
"But…"
"I believe that this is only temporary. One day, China's fighter jets will soar above the sky and let the enemy have a taste of fighter jets bombing!”
With the system as a barrier, Cai Rui believed that in time, the Yunnan army would also have their own fighter aircraft.
Cai Rui came back to his senses and put away the map in front of him. He then instructed Li Yun Long,""Speed up the march and try to cross the mountain ahead before noon tomorrow!”
"Tomorrow evening, we will have a good battle of annihilation with the Anglo-French allied forces near Old Street!”
The next morning, after a long journey, the Yunnan Army's 1st Division finally arrived at the old street station near the China-Vietnam highway. However, what made Cai Rui a little surprised was that the Brigades of the Anglo-French coalition forces did not move forward for a whole day.
However, when he and Li Yunlong personally led a team of soldiers to the old street station, he finally understood why the Anglo-French allied forces did not take a step forward.
Through the binoculars, he saw that in the old street station, the mixed combat brigade formed by the British and French coalition forces did not look like a soldier during wartime. There were many soldiers who were gathering and drinking.
What's more, there were even some officers of the Anglo-French coalition army who were hugging some enchanting women as they entered and exited the barracks, bringing the romance of the two countries into the war.
"They don't deserve to be soldiers. They're just the already decayed British and French colonial forces!”
Cai Rui shook his head. He had been planning for this battle for a long time, but he had never thought that his enemy would be so unbearable.
"There's no need to wait. When night falls, order all the soldiers of the 1st Division to attack the old street station!”
"An enemy like this is not worthy of our Dian Army's 1st Division's ambush!”
Cai Rui turned around and left. His words had already sentenced the Brigadier General to death.
Meanwhile, the British and French troops, who were still indulging in wine and gentleness, had no idea that they had been targeted by a fierce tiger in the jungle.
When night fell, the entire street was still brightly lit.
What was worse than during the day was that there were more women who were sent to the military camp by the puppet government army in the name of labor.
Looking up at the dark night sky, Cai Rui knew that even the most elite air force would not dare to move at this time.
"Fight!"
As soon as he said that, the 1st Division of the Dian Army, who had been hiding near the old street, bared their fangs. Countless mortars roared and the shells fell like raindrops on the Anglo-French allied forces in the old street.
