"Order the troops directly under the regiment to speed up the evacuation of Yunshan City. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Lieutenant Colonel Mirkin was asked to withdraw from the battle at Santanchuan and immediately move closer to the regimental headquarters."

"Ask for support from the division headquarters, we need the help of the 5th Regiment to get them over quickly. Before dawn we want to see their tanks break through the lines of the Chinese communist army. ”

"Okay, don't panic! We're not at the worst yet. The enemy only took advantage of the cover of the night to inflict a small loss on us, but our main force was still there. ”

At the new regimental headquarters at the Yunshan Temporary Airport, Chief of Staff Holmos, who was in charge of the Eighth Regiment of the US Cavalry, was calmly giving orders. His calmness and wisdom quieted the regimental personnel who had just learned that the rear road had been cut off and resumed their work.

"It's been a long night!" His Excellency the Chief of Staff did his best to mobilize the troops, but when he looked at the map placed in the military tent, he frowned, and he felt that the American troops would not fight without air support.

"Chief of Staff Holmos." A corner of the military tent was lifted, and Colonel Palmer, whose face was a little pale, walked in from outside, "I'm glad you came to help, otherwise my regiment will suffer heavy losses." ”

Colonel Palmer, who was given laxatives by 'Pee-ding', was very vain, and although he received the best treatment and recuperation after being put down, his deeds had become a semi-public joke in the American army, especially when his regiment was being violently beaten.

"Colonel, I think you should go and rest now. There will be a transport plane after dawn to transport you to Tokyo for further treatment. Chief of Staff Holmes was full of sympathy, and he felt that he was afraid of death if he met Colonel Palmer.

"Do you think I still need to rest?" Colonel Palmer was indeed dead-hearted, he found a seat in the tent and sat down, put one hand on his forehead and whispered, "I can't leave my regiment alone, I can't abandon my men." I heard that the situation is very bad now...... ”

Chief of Staff Holmes nodded undeniably, he didn't have the confidence he had when he just landed, and the night attack of the Chinese communist army had made a mess of the entire battlefield.

"Our opponent has broken into Yunshan City from two directions, and the troops in the city are withdrawing, but one howitzer company has lost contact. The 10th anti-aircraft artillery group was routed, almost all the heavy equipment was lost, and I only contacted the artillery group headquarters, and the several battalions attached to it were missing.

Many of our retreat routes were intercepted by the enemy, especially the 5th Regiment, which was unable to get close to us. Moreover, the northeast direction of the evacuation from Yunshan has already been occupied by the enemy, and in just five or six hours, we are isolated. ”

Chief of Staff Holmes briefly described the current battle situation on the map, and Colonel Palmer also sensed the urgency of the situation, and he hurriedly said: "We must take the initiative to break through." ”

But His Excellency the Chief of Staff shook his head and said: "Not now, we haven't gathered enough troops, there are quite a few defeated troops, but the equipment is desperately lacking." I have already asked the division headquarters for reinforcements, and there will be air forces to help after daybreak. But we're going to hold out for about seven or eight hours. ”

"No, ......we can't hold out that long. Our opponents are not the same as we have encountered them in the past. Haven't you found out yet? Those CCP troops are very different from the Northern Bang Army, and we have really met an opponent. Holding back will only lead to a loss of initiative, which will make us lose even more. ”

Colonel Palmer was in a hurry, and he even expressed his willingness to lead a unit to retake the position at the three-way crossing. But His Excellency the Chief of Staff refused his request, "I'm sorry, Palmer, now that I'm the commander of the Eighth Regiment, I can't let the lads venture out in the dark. ”

"Hell, you're sinning. War is an adventure, and are we sitting here waiting to be surrounded? ”

"What about the encirclement? It's not convenient for us to attack now, but it's okay to defend. The airfield is very strong, and I have mobilized enough tanks and artillery to try to storm anyone. For seven hours, we absolutely persevered. ”

"O my God, where is your faith to hold? It's just an airport, and there's no cover around the flat, do you have a problem with your brain? ”

The two senior officers immediately quarreled over the direction of the operational decision, one believing that if he did not break through, he would die, and the other believed that holding on to the situation and waiting for reinforcements was the king's way. For most U.S. soldiers, it seemed safer to stay in their positions by rushing into the darkness to kill the enemy.

On the other end, Zhou Qingfeng, who came up with the idea of fighting the enemy's regimental headquarters, found that he seemed to have miscalculated the fighting style of the volunteers. When he learned that his superiors had approved his idea, he felt that there would be a regular combat unit to carry out the mission, but in fact it was a miscellaneous soldier who appeared in front of him.

"After the division commander made a decision, he used the captured vehicles to gather the civilian and logistical personnel of the 347th Regiment and the 348th Regiment to form a temporary combat battalion of more than 300 people. It was personally commanded by the deputy commander of the 347th Regiment. "The battalion commander of the first battalion was very proud when he introduced it.

But what Zhou Qingfeng saw was a team composed of non-combatants such as cooks, repairers, regimental headquarters and battalion headquarters clerks. A big question mark rose in his heart, "Don't be funny, can this team fight?" Can you fight the American army armed to the teeth? It's good not to fall apart halfway. ”

Compared with the volunteer soldiers fighting on the front line, these second-line personnel in front of them are either scholars with glasses or old men. In particular, he saw an old soldier with a wrinkled face, who was in his fifties when asked, and he took the initiative to invite the firehead army from the division headquarters.

"Don't look down on us, boy. When I was in the war, your mother was still a yellow flower girl. Seeing Zhou Qingfeng's suspicious expression, the old man glared at him a few times unconvinced.

"Old man, can you still shoot?" Zhou Qingfeng was really worried about the combat effectiveness of this group of people, they didn't look like people who could fight at all.

"Bastard, do you have a kind of one more word? When I followed the chairman's Long March, I was a good player at playing with guns and cannons, if it weren't for my lack of education and old age, how could you have your early days? ”

The old man scolded angrily, if someone hadn't stopped him, he would have to compare with Zhou Qingfeng. But looking at his neatness in fiddling with the 38 big covers, it seems that he ......, so it's okay!

......, this is still an old Red Army. Zhou Qingfeng could only run away, because he couldn't afford to provoke him!

And Zhou Qingfeng questioned whether the patchwork miscellaneous soldiers had combat effectiveness, but the deputy commander of the temporary command of the battalion also came to question him, "Xiao Zhou, can you really drive a tank to open the enemy's defense line?" Whether we can succeed in this battle depends on whether you really have the ability. ”

You're kidding! Don't question me?

Zhou Qingfeng was also angry, he patted his chest and shouted: "I dare to make a military order, I can't open the gap in the position of the enemy's airfield, I'll raise my head to see you." ”

"Okay, the young man is ambitious." The deputy regiment commander, who was also an old revolutionary, praised Zhou Qingfeng a few words, and when he turned around, he told people that the little guy was still too tender, and the combat effectiveness came up after provoking him two sentences.
