Chapter 351
This was the residence of the commander of the Second Army, Lieutenant General Long, who, from the very beginning of the war, ordered people to find a place with beautiful scenery and a hot spring in the vicinity for him to live in, and to establish a command post there.
The full-time dragon immersed his body in the hot spring, revealing only a woman-like face, surrounded by more than a dozen docile beauties. Outside the hot springs, several officers with documents in their hands were a little anxious, but they didn't dare to rush in, and an ignorant officer broke in before, and then was carried out, and the officer wanted to convey the key information that the North Korean army was about to attack. Later, the officers knew that they would hand over the documents and information to the woman named Lee Hye-jin next to the general, and what was surprising was that the woman signed the document without asking the general.
He likes women, and his previous actions are just the arrangement of fate, in order for himself to live comfortably. At this moment, one of his favorite women whispered to his side, this woman not only had a beautiful face, but also the most intelligent mind.
"General, you need to make arrangements for your own back!"
The full-time dragon looked at her puzzled, but didn't ask. Because since the Japanese occupation period, this woman has been hiding behind the scenes to give advice to herself, and it can be said that without her, there would be no current self.
"The intelligence that came back during this period of time shows that Lu Wuxuan's situation is very bad, Inchon is occupied by the North Korean army, and the support of the Americans cannot reach Lu Wuxuan, and defeat is a matter of time."
"So what should we do?"
"General, don't worry, the Second Army in our hands is the best bargaining chip, whether Lu Wuxuan or Liu is alive, if they want to win the war, they have to look at our eyes. It's just that the general needs to make a plan in his heart, whether he is ready to accompany Lu Wuxuan to the end, or to take refuge in Liu Zaishi. Other than that. The power in the army still has to be grasped, and Major General Gao Dongwan was very dishonest after taking command of the army, and he promoted officers many times without telling us, and it seems that he wants to build up his own power. ”
"Hmph, the officers in the Second Army are all my people, and he Gao Dongwan doesn't have so much money to buy people's hearts. But it's a nuisance. When the Fifth Army was transferred to Hengcheng, I personally took over the command, believing that he was in the rear of Hengcheng, so I could only obediently obey him. ”
A day later, full-time Long was once again shocked by Li Huizhen's wisdom, and the front line reported that a Korean army spy had been captured, but this person said that he was the old man of the full-time General Long, and this time he came to discuss important matters.
"Huizhen, you said it, it seems that the person sent by Liu Zaishi is the old one!" The full-time dragon laughed.
"Has the general figured out how to deal with it?"
The full-time dragon nodded: "Hmm." Lu Wuxuan is at the end of his rope, even if he fights to the end in Seoul, all the accumulated family resources will have to be exhausted. There were only two endings, with Lee Jae-ha in the southeast leading the Lee family to independence with the support of the United States and Japan, and Yoo ruling the rest of the region. Or Liu Zaishi completely occupies the entire peninsula. In either case, it was Liu Zaishi who won, so take over the old one. I'm going to treat him well. ”
Three days later, Liu's living envoy sent a success signal to the rear through the full-time dragon's high-power radio station, in order to lure the full-time dragon down. The price paid by the North Korean side was 50 million Chinese won to form a separate full-time Dragon Army.
After the secret agreement to surrender, full-time Long immediately ordered the whole army to lay down their arms and surrender to the North Korean army opposite, because most of the middle and senior officers of the Second Army were promoted by full-time Long or followed from the Korean army of that year, and shared the loss, common prosperity and interests with them. Once the surrender of the Second Army did not make waves.
Only the Fifth Army, which was transferred to Hengcheng, resolutely resisted under the leadership of Gao Dongwan, but lost the favorable terrain in the north and the logistics materials in the hands of the full-time dragon. The Fifth Army quickly collapsed under the tidal offensive of Kang's army, and the Korean army captured Chuncheon, Hoengseong, and Wonju one after another, and then turned eastward. Threaten the retreat of the defenders of Seoul.
Seoul Presidential Palace, garrison commander Park Myung-pu looked at Lu Wuxuan, who was almost paralyzed, after the news of the surrender of the Second Army, Lu Wuxuan was shocked and immediately found the Japanese instructor corps, but the Japanese instructors did not help Lu Wuxuan after learning about the incident, but left Seoul directly, and fled to the south in the only few cars.
Lu Wuxuan was not only betrayed by the full-time dragon, but also completely abandoned by the United States and Japan. The Japanese instructors' corps received orders from their superiors to withdraw to the Daegu area, organize local forces to form a new government, and form new legions to build fortifications in the southern mountains. At the same time, the 1st Army of the Japanese Volunteer Army will land in Pusan from the mainland to assist the new government in resisting the attack of the North Korean army. In addition, larger-scale supplies are also being sent to the port of Busan, and the United States and Japan have decided to rely on the southern mountains to swear to hold the last piece of territory on the peninsula, and resolutely not allow Chinese forces to directly threaten the Japanese mainland.
"President, now is the most critical time, you must pick yourself up and lead us against the North Korean army. We also have troops of the entire First Army and the Third Army, with more than 130,000 soldiers guarding Seoul. ”
Lu Wuxuan waved his hand, Park Mingpu was his most loyal subordinate, and he did not abandon himself even at this time. But how many such loyal people can there be in the army? Even if he abandoned Seoul, where would he flee to?
As if seeing the last ray of light, Lu Wuxuan suddenly raised his head and said to Park Mingpu: "Otherwise, let's withdraw to Daegu, these 130,000 troops are our best cards, and the Americans and Japanese will not give up so many excellent soldiers!" When they get there, they need us to help defend and I can regroup! ”
Park Myung-pu shook his head and couldn't speak, this possibility has long been cut off, the president has completely lost his prestige in the army, the middle and lower-level officers and soldiers have no determination to fight, Park Myung-pu can even imagine that a large number of South Korean soldiers have surrendered to the North Korean army. Even if they run to the south, there are not many people left, and the strength of a regiment of the North Korean army is rushing towards the area from Suwon to the Han River, which will soon cut off the retreat of the South Korean army.
On November 9, the North Korean army launched a general assault on Seoul, and before that, the North Korean army had received more than 30,000 South Korean soldiers to surrender. Immediately after the general offensive was launched, three divisions of troops voluntarily surrendered, and the North Korean army occupied most of the outer positions of Seoul without firing a single shot. When more than 1,300 large and small caliber artillery pieces were mobilized to bombard Seoul, Lu Wuxuan asked Park Myung-po to surrender, and he committed suicide in humiliation in a basement.
After the end of the Second Battle of Seoul, the Korean army rested for three days and then quickly attacked southward, capturing Chungju on November 14 by the Hadong Xun Corps, Daejeon by Lee Kwang-juk's corps on the 16th, and Gwangju by the Kang Hyeong-gye Corps on the 19th. Then the main army of the Korean army began to attack the southeastern mountains.
The Lee family formed a new government in the southeast, still called the Korean Myeongguo, and formed a new national defense force, but the planned 100,000 new troops were still being recruited, and the North Korean army reached the front. Encountering little resistance, the North Korean army crossed the mountainous terrain and appeared on the outskirts of Daegu.
Lee Jae-ha, who became the president of the new government, was forced to abandon the presidency, fled to the port of Busan, and sailed to Japan without stopping. The First Army of the Korean Volunteer Army, which was formed by Japan, turned around and returned to Japan before it arrived in Busan, and the change in the situation of the war was unexpected, and no one expected that the ROK army's nearly 300,000-strong army would collapse in about a month and a half, even with the logistical support of the United States and Japan and the command of Japanese instructors.
On November 21, the DPRK army of Lee Kwang-ju occupied Busan, marking the complete end of the Korean War and the final completion of the reunification task of the Korean Republic. After the end of the war, Liu Zaishi immediately ordered the army to maintain the troops of the three corps and disband the rest of the troops, on the grounds that after the war, the country needed to recuperate and could not support the size of the army of more than 300,000, and it was necessary to concentrate on developing the economy and improving the people's livelihood. The wartime Admiralty Legion and the promised full-time Dragon Legion were forced to disband, and Liu Zaishi used a few small means to get through the difficulties and barely maintained his position as president.
After the situation on the peninsula stabilized, China signed a treaty of friendship and mutual assistance with North Korea, formalizing the alliance between the two sides and providing substantial support for North Korea's economic recovery, especially in mining and agriculture. The abundant mineral resources in the northern part of the Korean Peninsula allowed North Korea to make enough wealth from China, and in doing so, the country's economy recovered rapidly. Under the terms of the treaty, China was to lease Jeju Island for 99 years in exchange for the construction of a north-south railway from Dandong to Pusan, as well as 5,000 kilometers of feeder railways.
The high-yielding crops and advanced farming methods supported by the Chinese state allowed North Korea to eliminate the threat of hunger in a short period of time, and the Chinese country stopped importing grain from China within a year, which greatly reduced the burden on the country. Not only that, the DPRK has also become the largest destination for Chinese overseas investment, and the development of mineral resources and forest resources, as well as the occupation of commodity markets, have brought huge returns to China.
The most important thing is the strategic position of the Korean Peninsula, which is included in the sphere of influence of the Chinese state, which can threaten the Japanese mainland at close range to the east and Russian rule in the Far East to the north. Hua Guo was given another pedal into the Pacific Ocean, and the forces of the navy entered the unfamiliar waters of the Sea of Japan. The 300,000 soldiers with combat experience of the Korean army became a powerful supplement to the Chinese army and played a huge role in the subsequent battles. (To be continued.) )
