Blue Coffin and Corpse Robe (Volumes 1-3 Collection).

Summary

At the end of 1941, the Chinese Expeditionary Force faced dire challenges in Myanmar during the Pacific War, as they attempted to thwart Japanese advances. Mobilized by the Nationalist Government, their efforts faltered due to a lack of allied support, leading to a harrowing retreat through the perilous Deep Forest. Amidst starvation, disease, and treacherous conditions, only a small fraction of soldiers survived, aided by U.S. airdrops.

Ultimately, it reflects on the forgotten sacrifices of these soldiers and the enduring bonds of family and duty.
