During World War II, not only was China the victim, but many Asian countries became the site of Japanese aggression, including Burma. Our country and Burma are neighbors, and in order to help Burma and cut off Japan's intention to conquer Burma and then attack our country in many directions, we sent an expeditionary force to help Burma, and Britain and France also sent reinforcements. In the Burmese battlefield, China paid a heavy sacrifice, annihilating more than 49,000 Japanese troops at the cost of about 67,000 casualties. In order to commemorate these lovely warriors, a heroic cemetery was built in Myanmar, but for the development of the country, the political circles moved the tombs of these warriors to the ground and built high-rise buildings!
In World War II, while attacking China, in order to seize the Southeast Asian battlefield as soon as possible, Japan will send troops to attack Burma, in an attempt to quickly occupy Burma and then invade China from the rear.
In 1941, our Expeditionary Force joined the British and French armies in resisting the Japanese invading forces in Burma. However, due to the fact that Britain did not attach importance to the Southeast Asian battlefield and had differences with our army, it caused a large number of casualties in our army. Some of the troops did not even survive, some returned to their homeland with only half of them, the rest all died in Burma, and some even became unsung heroes.
The contribution of our expeditionary force in Burma is no less than that of the Combined British and French Forces, and for Burma we can say that we have been the great hero who saved their entire country. Our country can be said to have paid a lot of efforts to defend the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Myanmar, so that the people of Myanmar will no longer be displaced, no longer persecuted by war, and have a peaceful and stable living environment.
Because china sacrificed more than 100,000 people, it was difficult to transport all the remains of the soldiers back to China under the circumstances at that time, so there was a martyrs' cemetery of the Chinese Expeditionary Force in Myanmar to honor the Chinese heroes who died in the Burmese battlefield. Unexpectedly, decades later, Myanmar has done something that makes our country and ordinary people in Myanmar extremely chilled.
The highest leadership of Myanmar takes into account the development of the country, does not consider the feelings of the people at all, not only does not consider the feelings of the people, but also erases the contributions made by our country in the battlefield of Myanmar! For the sake of the development of the country and the development of the town, they actually bulldozed the martyrs' cemetery of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and built high-rise buildings on it. They didn't think at that moment that if it weren't for the Chinese Expeditionary Force's sworn resistance, maybe there would be no Burma today! The dead are gone, but Burma's practices have left many people feeling chilled and angry. Ignoring the voice of the people, even if many people stand up to protest, it is useless, it is useless for our country to stand up, and it is still going their own way!
In dealing with the martyrs' cemetery of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, Myanmar can be said to have no conscience, but when dealing with the cemeteries of the British and French troops, it is indeed a completely different attitude! They cleaned, wiped, and paid tribute on time as if the only people who helped them fight back the invading army at that time were Britain and France, not China! It is not easy to arouse a person's conscience, let alone a country! I hope that Myanmar can take responsibility for its own actions in the future and stop doing such chilling things!
