Seeing two American soldiers walking towards them, Li Sanpao and Li Sanpao couldn't help showing surprised expressions.
Although the dispatch team has only been here for two days, the soldiers are not stupid. They all know that most of the Americans have their noses in the sky. In their opinion, the soldiers from the dispatch team are here to shield them from the guns. Under normal circumstances,
They rarely come up to talk to them.
The two stopped what they were doing, looked at the two American soldiers coming towards them with some vigilance, and clenched the rifles in their hands out of reflex.
"Hi……"
Soon, the leading private soldier took the initiative to greet the two of them, "Nihao... let's have a simmer!"
The two listened for a while before they understood what the other meant. After understanding the meaning, the two couldn't help laughing.
Smile is the best way for human beings to express emotions and eliminate misunderstandings. Seeing Li Sanpao and Li Sanpao smiling, the two American soldiers also grinned.
Li Sanpao also said in Erduidao English: "Hi...good morning"
"Oh, you actually know English." The leading private showed an unexpected and pleasant smile.
"Yes, I learned a little from my Chinese teacher in the early years. My name is Li Sanpao, and his name is Zhao Sanjin. We came from the same place." Li Sanpao explained with a smile.
"My name is Harry Covington, his name is Adam Smith, and we are both from Arkansas."
The four of them immediately started chatting somewhat stumblingly, sometimes using English and sometimes using Chinese, and they even used hand gestures when they couldn't communicate.
When chatting happily, the four of them would burst into laughter.
After introducing each other's names, Harry asked curiously: "Li... I really don't understand why you are called Sanpao. Is there any meaning in it?"
"Implications...of course there are implications."
After getting acquainted with the two Americans, the strangeness gradually disappeared, and Li Sanpao and Li Sanpao also started joking, "Harry, don't you think the name Sanpao has a special meaning?"
Three means three times, and cannon means that, which means that I will come three times every night in the future, isn't that good?"
"Damn... this... this... God... hahaha..." Harry laughed so hard that he couldn't breathe, pointed at Zhao Sanjin and said: "Then don't you mean there is three kilograms of weight there?"
Harry and Adam burst into laughter for a moment, and the atmosphere was filled with joy.
Zhao Sanjin on the side wanted to explain that his name didn't mean that, but he didn't know how to say it, so he could only remain silent.
However, after the four people joked, the atmosphere became much more joyful, and Harry took out a cigarette again and shared it with everyone.
"Sanpao, you guys did a great job last night. You actually killed more than a thousand Japanese monkeys. You are the one!" Adam said while giving a thumbs up.
"Yes, if you didn't come yesterday, we would be the unlucky ones." Harry also complained: "You don't know, hundreds of people in our group have died in more than a month, all of them are these damn Japanese
Monkeys did it.”
Zhao Sanjin asked curiously: "Why? I think your equipment is very good. There is no shortage of planes and cannons. Logically speaking, the Japanese are not your opponents?"
"No...don't you know, Japanese monkeys are so cunning. They never fight us head-on, but sneak attacks on us at night when we are sleeping.
I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in almost a month, do you know how painful this is?”
Seeing Harry's painful expression, Li Sanpao and Li Sanpao said they couldn't understand.
"Since the Japanese can launch sneak attacks on you, why can't you take the initiative to attack them? As long as they are hurt, the Japanese will not dare to harass you."
"Actively attacking? Entering that rainforest? God, don't be ridiculous, that's simply suicide!"
"No... I would rather be beaten to death on the beach than enter that rainforest. That's where the devil lives."
Seeing Harry and Adam shaking their heads like rattles, Li Sanpao and Li Sanpao couldn't understand. It was just a rainforest. The Japanese could go there, so why couldn't they.
"Hey, man, listen to me, if your commander asks you to take the initiative to enter the rainforest to encircle and suppress the Japanese, you must not agree, it is not a place for people to live at all.
Moisture, disease, poisonous snakes, and all kinds of terrible mosquitoes will devour you."
Seeing Harry's serious and somewhat frightened expression, Li Sanpao and Li Sanpao looked at each other.
At this time, they remembered what the instructor told them when they first joined the army. Do not underestimate what any veteran said to you on the battlefield, because many experiences were gained by countless people with their blood and lives. Ignoring these lessons is tantamount to
Neglect your own life.
However, they were somewhat dismissive of Harry's fear of the rainforest.
Some officers from the dispatch corps also had the same view as Li Sanpao and others.
Chi Yaohui held a small wooden stick in his hand, pointed at a simple map on the wall and said: "Everyone, the Americans said in intelligence that for more than a month, the Japanese have been constantly attacking melons through ships at night.
Deliver supplies to the island.
Although the U.S. Navy has tried its best to attack Japanese ships, so far the Japanese have still used the method of moving mice to transport nearly 20,000 soldiers and a large amount of supplies to Guadalcanal.
After more than a month of fighting, although the Americans had occupied most of the plains on Guadalcanal, the Japanese had all withdrawn into the rainforest.
The Americans once tried to launch an attack in the rainforest, but due to the dangerous terrain and dense vegetation of the rainforest, the U.S. military's armored strength and air superiority were greatly restricted.
After several attacks, due to too many casualties, the U.S. military had to retreat to beaches, plains, and near the airport. After learning that the U.S. military did not dare to attack the rainforest, the Japanese took the opportunity to use the rainforest as a base to continuously launch offensives against the U.S. military at night.
This is the biggest headache for the U.S. military right now."
You Tianliang, commander of the first battalion of the dispatch corps, stood up: "Chief of Staff, Americans are afraid of death, but we are not afraid. It's just the rain forest. What's so scary about it? As long as you allow it, tomorrow I will lead the brothers from the first battalion to start exploring the rain forest."
The outer area is being cleaned, but I want to see if the Japanese will hide in the mouse holes and not come out."
"fart!"
Chi Yaohui's face immediately darkened, and he cursed unceremoniously: "Now that you are capable, tell this to Chief Gao and see how he deals with you."
"Don't forget, there are 20,000 Japs hiding in the rainforest. The few men and horses you have are not enough to fill their teeth. If you don't want to live, tell me now. I will shoot you as soon as possible to save you a battalion of 800 people."
