Chapter 397: The Beauty of Bloodstained Seoul and the Korean Dispute

As soon as this battle, which laid the foundation for the success or failure of the later stage, such a tragic and splendid scene occurred in the sky, and the tragedy inspired all the volunteer soldiers who participated in the Battle of Seoul, and the three directions of east, west, and north successively broke through the enemy's defense line, and street fighting inevitably began.

In Seoul, after the baptism of pumpkin bombs many times, more than a dozen deep pits remained in the city, and the smoke and dust covered the original city, as if to cover the trauma suffered by Seoul, but it could not prevent the building that had tilted from collapsing.

As a result, hundreds of high-rise buildings overturned, thousands of civilian houses collapsed, and wooden houses became a pile of ruins under the strong impact, and tens of thousands of American troops stationed in the city were affected by the shock wave, and tens of thousands of people were killed and wounded.

Ruined and depressed filled the city, wails and pains rang out at the right time, and Seoul had become a Shura hell! Disaster befell Ridgway's orders.

The power of the pumpkin bomb directly acted on their own people, this is the harvest they won, how could Li Qiwei have foreseen that the Chinese Air Force would appear in such a timely manner, and he did not expect that China would dispatch such a number of fighters at one time, don't they rarely dispatch fighters?

It is very likely that China's air force will pour out in this air battle, and although the Chinese air force will almost be wiped out as a result, the US side will be hit even harder, and in terms of numbers, the US side will lose 1.5 times more fighters and bombers than the Chinese side.

Moreover, the huge explosion almost changed the entire appearance of Seoul, destroyed the fortifications built by the United States in the city, and left the US troops with almost no defense line to defend and no cover to use.

In the underground shelter, Li Qiwei blushed his face, and the bad news came one after another to report the loss, and even more ugly than his face was Syngman Rhee, the Chinese came in, and the slogans they shouted clearly expressed what they were going to do, they wanted to capture themselves alive!

Syngman Rhee, the culprit who induced MacArthur to launch a biochemical attack, he was in a cold sweat, he was afraid to death, but he didn't dare to say his thoughts to Ridgway, he had already made up his mind to leave Seoul and go to the Philippines!

When he arrived in the Philippines, he could continue to live his life freely, so he quietly said to the assistant behind him: "Send someone to send Mingbo on the plane." ”

The secretary lowered his body and said to Syngman Rhee with some embarrassment: "Young master, he ran away again, and we haven't found him yet!" ”

Syngman Rhee immediately scolded in a low voice: "Waste, I don't know that the war has started, I am not optimistic about him, hurry up and find him, we have to leave here, hurry up!" ”

It seems that Syngman Rhee does not want to leave his stupid son, and he does not admit that he has a son.

After Rhee's small actions were seen by Li Qiwei, Li Qiwei sneered and said, "What bad idea are you playing there, do you want your troops to give up resistance and surrender collectively?" ”

Syngman Rhee suppressed the panic in his heart, recovered his face and said to Li Qiwei: "Commander-in-chief, I have already handed over the command of the troops to you, and I don't have any idea whether they surrender or not!" ”

The secretary was ordered to leave, but Li Qiwei suddenly shouted angrily: "It is precisely because of a president like you that this country has caused the defeat of this war, and you have to bear all the responsibility for this!" ”

Syngman Rhee's assistant shuddered coldly, but found that he didn't say it to himself, so he hurriedly left the conference room, Syngman Rhee's face became worse again, since he was leaving, there was no need to be nostalgic for everything here, Syngman Rhee said coldly: "Hmph, Rhee Qiwei!" Pay attention to your attitude, although you are the commander of the coalition forces, but don't forget, I am the president of this country, please speak with respect! ”

Li Qiwei also sneered: "Respect? If it weren't for the incompetence of your troops, how could my plan have failed, all our losses are due to your soldiers cowering, so there has been no chance to turn the tide of the war, tell you how much we spent today, and we will get it back from Korea in the future! ”

Syngman Rhee snorted coldly in his heart: "Ask for it, it doesn't matter who you will ask for this debt with in the future, it has nothing to do with me now!" ”

Seeing that Syngman Rhee didn't answer, Li Qiwei also realized that he was a little too radical, and blamed himself for being mad, preparing so much, spending so much money, and dying so many soldiers, but he still failed, and what was more serious was that he was likely to lose his identity as the commander of the coalition forces because of this.

How could he not be angry, but what could he do, apart from being angry at Syngman Rhee, what else could he do, should he be angry at those members of the coalition forces?

In addition to South Korea, which of the remaining participating countries is what he can reprimand casually, this joint military operation is set up by the United States, and others come to help the field, it's like two people fighting, one side called some more helpers, and these helpers are just here to be spectators, although angry, but you can't do anything to them, right?

After all, people are supporters who are on your side on the surface, and they don't hit a smile with a good punch.

The head of the British side said to Ridgway: "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, I think it is time to think about the next step. ”

Li Qiwei finally calmed down, now the British are of the same mind as themselves, except for South Korea, it is the British who have suffered a big loss, Li Qiwei said with a cold face: "Hurry up and order the troops to deploy troops south of Seoul, so that our heavy firepower is in this position, and the French artillery units and Turkish tank brigades are all given to me to the combat position, now we have to re-sort out the battle line, it's too messy, if this continues, we will be beaten out of Seoul sooner or later!" ”

The war conference room returned to normal again, and Syngman Rhee stood up and said in an unhappy tone: "I am going to the office to sort out some necessary materials so as not to be burned." ”

Syngman Rhee's departure was not hindered, he was in the war conference room just to take care of his face, he is the president of South Korea, even if South Korea is a country the size of a fingernail, but you can't deny the fact that he is the president.

The necessary face still has to be given, Li Qiwei let him go, he has now focused all his attention on how to recover Seoul, and after regaining his composure, he once again put forward the theory of hunger: "Those hungry Chinese will definitely not last long, we must hold this day, once it is night, it will be difficult for us to get back the lost areas of Seoul." ”

The British also expressed their opinion: "Before the battle began, one of our troops had already set out, they went to the rear of the Chinese, and the intelligence said that the enemy's arsenal had been discovered, and if they could succeed in this trip, I believe it should greatly disrupt the next deployment of the Chinese troops." ”

Li Qiwei rarely smiled a little: "Very good, cut off their food, and then cut off their ammunition, I see what those Chinese use to fight, hahaha......"
