"Where troops pass by, savage mountain and Gaoligongshan are mountainous and overlapping. The forest covers the sky, gnats swarm, and it is difficult to supply with fewer people. Originally, it was expected to reach the vicinity of Pianma in northern Myanmar before the rainy season, but most of the feasible roads along the way were blocked by the enemy, so we had to contain the enemy with small troops and let the main force turn in safely. Therefore, twists and turns are time-consuming and laborious. "
Shuxun Wang (Captain correspondent of Mountain Artillery Battalion Company 2 directly under Expeditionary Force 7 1 Army and Artillery Liaison Command of US Army 7 1 Army)
"At one o'clock in the afternoon, the general assault began. All heavy weapons fired at Dongka from all directions. It is really a thousand guns, and the mountains shake. In an instant, I saw smoke and dust over Dongka, and the whole Longling City was shrouded in fire and smoke. At this time, our mountain artillery position advanced from Guanglinpo to the bowl factory at about 1 km east of Longling City, and directly fired at Dongka, the enemy guard position in Longling City. The bombardment of all kinds of shells like raindrops made the periphery of our position fluctuate like an earthquake, and the heat flow formed by the heat generated by the explosion of shells also rushed to our side. Although it has been raining as usual, everyone of us is sweating. "
Qi Xueqi (captain-general of the army, deputy commander of the 38th Division, was ordered to enter Myanmar from Yunnan to help the allied forces fight, and was captured by the Japanese army).
"Success in the past, today, this time. Type it all out and cut it separately. China soldiers can be killed and humiliated, but they can beg for death and benevolence. Any complaints? "
Zhang Fulin (Veteran of Chinese Expeditionary Force)
"Since April of 16, the British First Division has been surrounded for two days and two nights. At that time, we had run out of ammunition and food and the water supply was cut off. If it can't be cleared in a short time, they will surrender to the Japanese army. Rescue is like putting out a fire. "
LAM Raymond (secretary to the chief of the General Staff Office of the Chinese Expeditionary Force 1 1, who participated in the battles of Songshan and Longling in western Yunnan).
"Although our artillery constantly bombarded Songshan with heavy artillery and allied planes also assisted in the battle, the enemy artillery was extremely violent and crazy, so our officers and men suffered heavy casualties in the desperate battle."
