Chapter 339: Lieutenant General Walker is dead

In Seoul, Li Qiwei had already fallen asleep, and he smiled in his sleep, thinking that he had dreamed of the scene of the defeat of the Volunteer Army early tomorrow morning.

The sweet dream was shattered by a hurried knock on the door......

"Bang bang bang...... Commander, there is an urgent military situation to report to you! ”

The sleepy-eyed Li Qi walked to the door with a slight displeasure, because he didn't like the panicked tone of the people outside.

Before opening the door, Li Qiwei glanced at his watch and opened the door in a scolding voice: "You'd better bring me good news......"

Outside the door was James Alward Van Vliet, a general who was one star less than Ridgway, but who looked much taller than Ridgway, and Van Vliet said, "Excuse me, I'm sorry to disturb your rest." ”

After seeing that it was Van Vliet, Li Qiwei let him into the room, walked to the wine cabinet and planned to give Van Vliet a glass, picked up the wine Li Qiwei asked, "What happened?" ”

Van Vliet shrank into the couch, held the back of his head with both hands and said, "Bad news, Walker is dead!" ”

Li Qiwei didn't seem to hear clearly, turned around and confirmed: "What? ”

Van Vliet rubbed his face and said, "Walker is dead!" I have just received a report that the commander of the Eighth Army, Lieutenant General Walker, was unfortunately ambushed by the Chinese army while retreating to Seoul, and his car was destroyed and killed! ”

Li Qiwei heard it clearly this time, and his mind suddenly cleared up a lot, and immediately Li Qiwei roared: "Damn, that guy Dean surrendered, this time a lieutenant general actually died, didn't he defend the triangle area, why did he withdraw, who asked him to withdraw!? ”

Van Vliet: "While you were sleeping, the Chinese 24th Army launched a fierce attack on the triangle, and Walker's artillery unit ran out of shells, so he was furious to see why the shells had not yet arrived, and he was ambushed....."

The wine glass in Li Qiwei's hand fell to the ground: "This idiot! Idiot! ”

Van Vliet looked tired, got up from the couch and asked, "What now, our triangle has been lost and we want to take it back?" But it's night, and it's advantageous for the Chinese. ”

Li Qiwei was slightly angry, thought for a while and said: "The triangle area cannot be given up, tomorrow we will implement the tail cut off plan, now I appoint you to take over as the commander of the Eighth Army, and you must take back the triangle area!" ”

Van Vliet saluted Ridgway: "Obey the arrangement of the commander-in-chief." ”

Back in the woods, the special operations team that killed Lieutenant General Walker became the number one target of the American army, and thousands of people followed the special operations team into the woods, and the special operations team that had built the bunker earlier fought with the American GIs in the woods.

There was still no suspense in the battle, and although the number of US troops was large, under the precise strikes of the special combat team, the pursuing US troops never dared to dare to chase after them.

In the confrontation, the U.S. Army organized two charges, but they were destroyed by tank fire, seeing that time was constantly flowing, the 24th Army was about to take the hill that originally belonged to them, and the U.S. commander here could not bear it anymore and called for air support.

"I need air reinforcements, there are hundreds of enemies here, please send bombers, I'm going to burn this wood!"

"The number of enemy troops is too small, refuse!"

"Bastard, do you think they're ordinary enemies, I'm going to have air reinforcements now, I'm going to have Molotov cocktails!"

"The request is not passed, the number of enemies is too small, and the effect of incendiary bombs cannot be reflected, good luck!"

"Fack! *******! ******! ”

"Doodoo Dot ......"

"You bastard actually hung up on me......"

The commander of the U.S. military was so angry that he wanted to smash the microphone, but the radio was restored, and the people there might have been told who was going to target the airstrike.

"The order confirms that the bomber has taken off, good luck again, I hope you are now out of reach."

As soon as he finished speaking, the communication was cut off again, and the commander grabbed the microphone and stared dryly, and immediately understood what the other party meant.

"Retreat! Fall back! ”

The U.S. troops withdrew very suddenly, which made everyone in the special combat team wonder.

Stopping the tank, Chu Jian, who was in the same tank, asked Wei San: "Captain, why did they run away?" ”

Wei San touched his chin and thought about it, then said, "If you guess correctly, the enemy may set us on fire!" ”

After speaking, Wei San picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Everyone, evacuate this forest as quickly as possible!" ”

After speaking, Wei San glared at Chu Jian, who was still stunned: "Is it that I didn't express it clearly enough, run quickly!" ”

Chu Jian was yelled at before he came to his senses: "Oh.... Oh good! ”

The five tanks suddenly turned around and fled deep into the woods from the standoff just now, and in the process of moving, the team members outside kept jumping on the tanks, filling the entire roof of the tank.

Wei San poked his head out of the hatch and saw that there were still a dozen people who had not jumped up, so he shouted to them: "Give up your weight and get out of here as fast as you can!" ”

After receiving the order, the people on the ground began to discard their backpacks, water bottles, etc., leaving only their weapons, and strode behind them to compare the speed of the tank.

The people on the ground are not necessarily slower than the tank, and the maximum speed of Sherman on flat ground is only about 50 kilometers per hour, and the running on foot is even higher than that of the tank, so although the people on the ground have no means of transportation, the speed is not satisfied.

Wei San held the hatch and saw that it was really inconvenient for the tank to move through the woods, so he changed his mind: "Abandon the car and go on foot!" ”

The tracks of the tank stopped turning, and a group of people jumped off the tank and gave up their loads, and fled deeper into the woods, not knowing how many bombers the US military would send, and now only the farther they run, the safer it is!

In fact, Wei San wanted to chase those US troops at the beginning, and it was safest to hang under their noses, and the US military would never burn their own people to death, right?

But in that case, there will be more trouble later, so let's run, anyway, the battle on the other side of the hill seems to be almost over.

The special combat team members who spread their legs and ran wildly, under the high-speed sprint, their physical strength was released instantly, and there was never a moment when the team members felt the importance of physical fitness, and now they know it!

Wei San and they shuttled through the woods at a very fast speed, and after the initial outbreak period, everyone began to breathe to varying degrees, but they still didn't see the edge of the woods, this forest is not small, that is, the special combat team is here, and it only took two minutes to leave the previous area two hundred meters away.

Wei San's feet didn't stop, and his mouth urged: "Don't stop, keep running, when to run out of the woods, when to stop, pay attention to keep the formation tight, don't run away!" ”

The answer to Wei San was the sound of rapid wheezing, the forest was uneven, and it was very difficult to run, and accidentally, one of the team members tripped and fell to the ground, and when he sat up, he felt unbearable pain in his ankle.

Wei San happened to see this scene, so he yelled at Gao Baoguo: "Be bold, carry him on your back!" ”

"Oh! Roger that! ”

As soon as Gao Baoguo picked up the sprained team member, there was a sound of breaking the air overhead, and the enemy bomber was coming!

What they brought was the first batch of incendiary bombs, and as the sound of breaking the air went away, the woods 100 meters behind the special combat team instantly burst into flames!
