I don't think so, I can remember reading a similar story in primary school. It was in one of those 'unsolved mystery' compendiums. The tale was set during the Sino-Japanese war (1937-1945) supposedly the army was guarding a riverline with small detachments covering bridges. Then 'overnight' all but the bridge guards disappeared in the manner described above.
Of course neither the Japanese, Nationalist Chinese or Communist Chinese could explain what happened....
