On the radio, while Lieutenant Colonel Jean Balfour's panicked cries were still ringing in the ears of Lieutenant Colonel Wharton and others, several clouds of smoke and dust suddenly rose from the wilderness on both sides of Route 9 in the northeast.

Immediately after that, seven or eight tanks crashed into the rear of the rear of the ROK 55th Special Reinforced Regiment, which was launching a new offensive against the heavy fire company.

This made the already unsupported South Korean army unable to hold on any longer, and it collapsed in an instant, but those Chinese tanks did not stop, and rushed directly along the torn opening, and then in the shocked eyes of the surrounding United Nations forces, they made contact with the heavy firepower company in the encirclement.

The two armies then began to slowly retreat north along the gap left by the South Korean army, with skillful infantry and coordinated tactics......

The whole process seemed complicated, but it took only a few minutes, and by the time Colonel Wharton recovered from the shock, most of the surrounded heavy fire companies had already withdrawn from their positions.

Wharton let Chinese succeed like this, grabbed the command intercom, and after connecting with the artillery group in the rear, he ignored the order: "Areas H and K, fire coverage, ...... immediately"

Wharton's call for fire was not untimely, but the retreat of the heavy fire company was faster, and when the first batch of target guide shells fell on the position of the heavy fire company, the commanders and fighters of the volunteer army in the middle had already withdrawn, waiting for a large number of shells to fall, and what was destroyed was nothing more than a useless position where people went to the empty building!

"Bang"

Seeing that the cooked duck was about to fly away, Lieutenant Colonel Wharton was suddenly so angry that he slammed his fist on the radio intercom in front of him, and then an angry roar filled the entire command post: "Those French are simply a bunch of fools, I can put a battalion of pigs for an hour or two, but they ...... Not even 15 minutes, no wonder they were beaten by Germany in World War II...... And the Air Force ......"

After scolding the 9th Battalion of the French Lancer Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Wharton pointed the finger at his own air force, and then stared at the air-ground liaison officer who was shrinking in a corner of the command headquarters with unkind eyes, and his angry voice was even louder several beats: "Have so many reconnaissance planes become blind?" There are so many Chinese tanks, why didn't they see it? Others I said that the eyes of those guys are on the navel! ”

Lieutenant Colonel Wharton was furious at the air force reconnaissance, because just half an hour ago, the latest aerial reconnaissance report showed that there was no movement of the Chinese troops moving south, except for some unusual movements in a certain main division of the Volunteer Army 30 kilometers away.

As a result, as soon as this air force reconnaissance report arrived in his hands, a battalion of Chinese armored troops suddenly launched a surprise attack on his armored battle group and rescued the heavy fire company trapped there.

If Lieutenant Colonel Wharton is angry at the performance of the French army, then the result of the reconnaissance of the air force is irrepressible irritation, after all, no matter how bad the French army is, if it is properly arranged, it can still exert a lot of combat effectiveness, but if the most important battlefield intelligence is missing, even if he is as clever as a fox, not only will he not be able to win this battle, not to mention, he will even be dragged down and suffer losses one after another.

This time, the Chinese armored forces broke through the direction and rescued the heavy fire company is a typical example!

Therefore, Lieutenant Colonel Wharton is eager to scold the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of those Air Force reconnaissance plane crew members, if it weren't for their battlefield intelligence mistakes, the US military at this time is estimated to have really made the heavy firepower company into a "specimen", and now it's good, the specimen just broke through under his nose, how not to make Lieutenant Colonel Wharton annoyed!

"Jean Balfour's troops were ordered to hold off the Chinese army that had broken through, and at the worst to slow them down, and...... Tell Major Cabreno to let his iron cavalry immediately go out, and be sure to leave the Chinese army breaking through south of the Imjin River! ”

……

"Chinese armored forces? Hehe, interesting! ”

Major Cabreno, commander of the 2nd Armored Battalion of the 1st Cavalry Division of the US Army and the commander of the 2nd Armored Battalion, who was carrying a coarse cigar smoke, listened to Lieutenant Colonel Wharton's order on the radio, and his dissatisfied face couldn't help but smile indifferently, and then he took a few puffs of the cigar in his mouth, and then casually glanced at the American tank crews around him, and said with a smile: "Gentlemen, you should have heard it, right?" The Chinese actually dispatched tanks, it seems that something more interesting is coming for us! ”

"I'll teach them how to drive the tank out of the drift effect......"

"I'm afraid they'll run away when they see the M26 opener......"

"Runaway? That's better, I really want to try what it's like to stab a Chinese ass with a cannon barrel, it must be exciting! ”

"Your heart has really changed~~! ~~ state, but ...... I love it! ”

"Alright, alright!" Looking at the tankers under his command, with a proud grin, Major Cabreno was also very relieved in his heart, this is the momentum that an armored ace should have, so he interrupted the tankmen's laughter in a timely manner, and waved vigorously with the hand holding the cigar: "Then hurry up and prepare, young men, in five minutes, the hunt will officially begin, and there will be no ...... after that."

……

While the 2nd Armored Battalion of the 1st Cavalry Division and the 2nd Armored Battalion of the US Army, which was in the rear, were gearing up for the upcoming battle, the 9th Battalion of the French Lancer Regiment, which was under the breakthrough of the Chinese armored forces, was also ready for battle.

Although he was previously caught off guard by the Chinese armored forces, Lieutenant Colonel Jean Balfour believed that the result of his defeat was more due to the trickery of the Chinese than the combat effectiveness of the 9th Battalion of his Lancer Regiment, as long as they were prepared not to mention the Chinese who were fledgling in armored warfare, even if the Germans came here at the height of World War II, the 9th Battalion of their Lancer Regiment would still tear them to pieces.

At this time, the 9th Battalion of the Lancer Regiment that received the order of Lieutenant Colonel Wharton was ready, and more importantly, the sky had gradually darkened, in the dark night, those Soviet-style tanks in China were no different from being blind, and the 9th Battalion of the Lancer Regiment with rich experience in armored night combat would let those Chinese know what real armored warfare was!

"Boom~~~"

When the roar of the engine came from far and near, Lieutenant Colonel Jean Balfour also returned to reality from his thoughts, and immediately picked up the radio intercom on the command tank, and commanded in a loud voice: "Flares! ”

"Knock~Knock~Knock~"

At the same time, the 90mm tank guns on nearly 20 "Sherman" MK4 tanks pointed in unison in the direction of the continuous roar of the engine, just waiting for the Chinese tanks to emerge from the darkness, they would not hesitate to greet them with 90mm anti-tank ammunition.

However, just as the French army was waiting for the Chinese armored forces to appear, suddenly a cluster of bright red light flashed in the darkness in the distance, and then a burst of 85mm armor-piercing bullets with a whistling and heat wave were like meteors outside the sky, breaking through the dense darkness, crossing the bright light of the flare flares, and crashing into the heavily guarded "Sherman" MK4 tanks without any scruples......
