Prelude After the defeat of the Roman army under Crassus at the Battle of Carrhae , Parthian forces made a number of raids into Roman territory. The Romans under Gaius Cassius Longinus , a survivor of the battle of Carrhae who had become proquaestor, defended the border against these incursions. However, the Parthians returned in 40 BC with an even larger force, along with the rebel Roman Quintus Labienus in their service. This force defeated the Roman governor of Syria and proceeded to overrun the province. Many of the Roman troops in Syria at the time were former Republicans who had once fought against Mark Anthony in the service of Brutus and Cassius, and many may have gone over to their fellow Republican Quintus Labienus in joining the Parthian invaders, further weakening the Roman position in the east. ref http www.allempires.com article index.php?q war roman parthian ref In order to counter the Parthian gains, Mark Antony gave Publius Ventidius Bassus command of several legions.

Chinese nationalist forces aimed to retake control over the Burma Road . The Japanese were losing the war in Burma and aimed to block off the highway for as long as they could. They used slave labor from Thailand and Burma to construct a series of tunnels and bunkers in order to turn the mountain into a fortress. The Chinese forces were unaware of the depth of the Japanese defenses, and their underestimation led to heavy casualties. Chinese artilleries and US bombing runs had little effect against Japanese forces underground. Japan also set up a series of hidden pillbox es to ambush the Chinese forces. After three months of bloody battle, the Chinese forces finally retook Mount Song through the use high powered explosives and flamethrowers and the Burma Road could be used once again. coord missing China conflict yes References 1947 ...
