"Mr. Peng, the Americans' offensive has stopped, and the US and South Korean armies on all fronts have retreated, and now the troops are asking if they want to pursue?" The staff officer came over and asked. "Depending on their respective situations, pursue those who can be chased, don't pursue those who can't, and don't chase too far, just meaning!" Mr. Peng thought for a while, "Did the U.S. troops on the other side of Wushan Cave also retreat?" "I received a report from Division Commander Liu this morning that the American troops in front of them have retreated!" The staff officer replied. "Good! Let the 40th Division take over the defense task of Wushan Cave of the 8th Artillery Division, and let the 8th Artillery Division withdraw and recuperate! Mr. Peng said. Be! Mr. Peng! The staff officer agreed.

"Hello, Division Commander Liu, I am Guo Sanyu, the commander of the 40th Division, and I was ordered to come to take over the defense, and your department can withdraw and rest!" The commander of the 40th Division said to Liu Hai. "Great! You are here, we can finally withdraw and recuperate, this battle is a bit miserable, my artillery is less than a regiment, and there are more than 200 infantry left! Bangs shook the other party's hand and said. I'm going to call the troops into position and take over! Master Guo said. A few hours later, Division Commander Guo and Liu Hai's troops completed the pick-up of the position, and Liu Hai finally led his troops to withdraw!

"Mr. Peng, the Eighth Artillery Division has completed the garrison mission of Wushan Cave, and now report to you!" Liu Hai stood in front of Mr. Peng and said. "Are your troops losing a lot?" Mr. Peng asked. "Huge! Artillery losses were two-thirds, and personnel losses were ninety percent! Liu Hai said, "I originally planned to go forward to attack, which can fundamentally relieve the weakness of Wushan Cave, but I didn't expect to suffer a big loss, and I almost lost Wu Cave!" "This incident illustrates the fact that the Americans no longer have the ability to effectively break through our defenses, and we do not have enough offensive capabilities to achieve breakthroughs, and now it is a complete stalemate!" Mr. Peng said. "Not necessarily, I think as long as we have enough fire support, we can at least achieve some tactical breakthroughs!" "The point is that we don't!" Mr. Peng waved his hand, "Let's talk about it later, you take your troops to Qujiang Road to rest now!" Also, Liu Xiaoshan and Wu Fatzi made a command error, causing a large loss to the department, and they recorded a major demerit! "What about me?" "You were originally going to be guilty, but in the garrison battle of Wushan Cave a few days ago, the command was effective, and the merits and demerits were compensated!" Mr. Peng said.

"Now announce the decision of the headquarters," Liu Hai glanced at the few people in front of him, "As the division commander, I can't escape the blame, and I was recorded as a major demerit, but I commanded effectively in the resistance battle of Wushan Cave, and the merits and demerits were compensated!" Liu Xiaoshan and Wu Fatzi were recorded as a major demerit because of their command mistakes in Songshigou, which caused large casualties in the department, and the ghost artillery played a great role in the garrison of Wushan Cave because of its effective operation! Now the whole army has entered Qujiang Province to rest! "Hahaha! The Eighth Artillery Division was completely annihilated, and I returned triumphantly! Ghost Cannon said happily. Get lost! Wu Fatzi and Liu Xiaoshan scolded together. Okay, the two of you did suffer a lot of losses in Songshigou, and you also lost your position! Now that the whole army has entered Qujiang Province and reported the details of the losses, I will go to Minister Hong to replenish the ordnance, and then go to General Peng to replenish the troops! Bangs said.

Liu Hai knows that the whole army can rest now, but he can't, and now the soldiers and materials are in urgent need of replenishment, and he is busy! Liu Hai first went to the logistics department, found the logistics minister Hong Xuezhi, and asked to replenish himself with cannons and guns! "Division Commander Liu, let me tell you this, the soldiers can be given to you, there is no problem with the guns, and you can replenish them in two days, but the artillery is really difficult, and now the two armies are in a stalemate, the bombardment of the Americans has not only not weakened by half a point, but has strengthened, heavy equipment such as artillery and tanks is really difficult to transport, and now I don't have a cannon in my hand, and I don't have a tank, or I will give you the soldiers and guns first, artillery, wait a minute! However, the document needs to be signed by Mr. Peng! Minister Hong said. In that case, let's make up what is there first! As for the cannon, I'll go find Mr. Peng! "Liu Hai knows that Minister Hong has no choice, the Americans are indeed very fierce, and it is indeed difficult to replenish this kind of heavy equipment!

"Mr. Peng, this is Minister Hong's supplementary document, please approve it!" Liu Hai found Mr. Peng. "You guys have also retreated from hard fighting, you should be given priority to replenish, now there are still redundant soldiers, and the guns are okay, but they are not Soviet equipment!" Mr. Peng said. "It doesn't matter, the Soviet equipment is not as good as the Japanese equipment we captured, especially *, some can't even pull the leash, and they have to use pedals, everyone calls them pedal guns! Just give me some captured gear! "Soviet-style equipment is rushing to get it, you still can't look down on it? As for the seized equipment, those are all in Hong Xuezhi's place, you can pick it yourself! What do you want from the soldiers? What about the former Kuomintang soldiers? Mr. Peng said as he signed. It doesn't matter the number of soldiers, it doesn't matter if there are new recruits, as long as they are full! Bangs said. All right! Mr. Peng signed, "There is also the matter of artillery, I'm afraid I won't be able to replenish it in a short time, so you can't go back to the Northeast yourself, look for Mr. Lin, and see if he can transfer some artillery from the Northeast Military Region to you!" Mr. Peng said. Be! Bangs said.

Liu Hai returned to the logistics department with the supplementary order and handed it to Minister Hong. "I'll ask someone to start supplementing you right away, but there's one thing I want to ask you, did you participate in the imitation of the Northeast American-style cannon?" Hong Xuezhi asked. "Yes! What's wrong? "Bangs are very strange, how do you think about this!" That's right, the American artillery we captured has been completely replenished to the troops, but there are still a lot of problems, most of them are piled up in the warehouse, do you go to see if there is anything that can be used, the short man dials the general, even if you go back to the Northeast, there may not be ready-made, if you can pack up those cannons and use them, it is better than nothing, you say, right? "Minister Hong said about the situation!" Well, I'll check it out! Bangs said. Staff Officer Wu, take Division Commander Liu to the No. 7 warehouse to have a look, and give him everything he likes! Minister Hong said. Be! ”

Liu Hai came to warehouse No. 7, and when he entered, he found that there were no less than a hundred cannons inside! "No one wants so many cannons?" Bangs asked, looking at a few of the almost intact cannons. "There are problems with these cannons, like this one, it seems that the action system is broken, and it doesn't move no matter how you pull the wheels!" The staff officer said. "Hehe, every cannon has a brake brake, this cannon just didn't open the brake brake!" Bangs said. "Really?" The staff officer looked at it, and then shook his head, "We don't have enough technicians, these cannons have problems but there is no way to fix them, there are about one hundred and thirty-six cannons, you can take a look, take all that you can see!" "Hehe, you can help me make a phone call and let my two regiment commanders bring someone to come over to receive the artillery!" Bangs said with a smile.

"Hahaha, there are so many cannons, and they are all large-caliber cannons, and no one wants them?" The ghost cannon touched the cannons one by one and asked happily. "It's not that no one wants it, it's just that they won't fix it, see what's going on with that cannon in your hand?" Bangs said. "The situation of this cannon is very simple, it's just that the cannon shovel has fallen off, just install it!" "It doesn't look like there's a big problem!" "Then pull it all back, go back and slowly tidy it up!" Bangs said. Liu Hai and Ghost Cannon and the others pulled all the cannons back, and after a few days of hard work, they finally repaired all the cannons, and a total of ninety-one cannons were repaired, and in general, they were basically satisfied!

"Hey, division commander, the two of them are satisfied, what about my soldiers?" Liu Xiaoshan came over and asked. "Minister Hong didn't say anything about the soldiers." Before Liu Hai finished speaking, Liu Xiaoshan said excitedly, "Are they all veterans who have recovered from injuries?" "Think beautifully!" Liu Hai said: "It is all composed of the remnants of various units and a part of veterans and recruits, how can the veterans who have recovered from their injuries be given to you?" "That's fine, when will I come, I'm basically a light pole commander now!" Liu Xiaoshan said. "It should be soon, Minister Hong has already sent someone to arrange it, as for the officer's resignation, you can pick it up yourself from the veterans!" Bangs said. "That's fine!" Liu Xiaoshan said. "Also, you can get the guns and ammunition yourself, take Minister Hong's approval, remember, get more American-style equipment!" Bangs instructed. "I see!" Liu Xiaoshan said.

After Liu Hai explained to Liu Xiaoshan, he went to the artillery regiment of the ghost artillery to call a battalion of people, and went to the logistics department with him to get the shells, but when he arrived at the logistics department, he was told that there were only 2,000 shells, and he could only give Liu Hai 1,000 rounds at present, but 1,000 rounds was too little for Liu Hai, at least three or four thousand shells were needed, but now there is no and there is no way, Liu Hai asked someone to transport 1,000 shells back before he found another problem, that is, artillery! This time the battle losses were very large, especially Wu Fatzi's artillery regiment, the artillery losses were as high as three-quarters, and without artillery, it was a pile of scrap iron! In desperation, Liu Hai went to Hong Xuezhi again, but Hong Xuezhi told him that there was really no artillery, not one!

"Actually, it's not impossible, you can go back to the Northeast to find Mr. Lin, there is an artillery school in the Northeast, there are thousands of artillery trainees there, but those are Mr. Lin's baby bumps, if you can go there and ask people to come out, it would be good, at the moment I really don't have it, and it's a shortage of it!" Hong Xuezhi thought of a way! "Well, then I'll go back, anyway, it's useless to have more artillery without artillery!" Liu Hai thought for a while and said, "I still have some connections in that artillery school!" ”
