In left image, a KMT civilian at rally poses for portrait shot: An Zefa (安则法), a highly educated official who had a number of roles in Yunnan during WWII.
In right image, An Zefa (安则法) stands in the center, with American GIs on left and right.
These men stand in the gate of an elite residence in Yunnan province, which has been appropriated by Nationalist 5th Corps forces for military purposes--the white paper posted on the door post says the residence is temporary housing for assistant staff for officers, and HQ for an armored unit. The residence compound has its own title, General's Manor (将军第).

This image subset contains images of an apparent rally of the Nationalist 48th Army Division (陆军第四十八师) that happened in SW China during WWII, with speeches, parades, group oaths, patriotic slogan practice, singing, and martial competitions with awards, and a final banquet.
Several images show Zheng Tingji (郑庭笈) as commander of the 48th Army Division (陆军第四十八师 ), and he held that post from January 1944, to May 1945 (1944年1月任第48师师长,1945年5月任云南昆明机场守备司令), so the images are from that timeframe.
Based on some of the KMT officials in some of the images, and the terrain recorded in the images, this rally was probably in Fohai county (佛海县), in far SW Yunnan province, adjacent to Burma.
