Features: This is a thrilling historical experience novel. Set against the backdrop of the 1940s when one hundred thousand Chinese Expeditionary Forces were sent to Burma to fight against Japan, the story narrates a Northeast unit that, due to factional conflicts within the Nationalist army and the betrayal by the British and American "Allied Forces," found themselves in a desperate battle alone. After fierce fighting against the Japanese, they were forced to retreat into the dense jungles of northern Burma. Starvation, disease, and the harsh natural environment took their lives, while primitive tribes repeatedly launched attacks against them. With the unwavering belief of moving north, north—back to China—they performed a magnificent yet tragic song of life. In the vast jungle, they fell one by one, with only one man and one woman finally returning to their homeland. Amid the foreign forests, the spirits of the lost and lonely drifted on.
