"Boom!" A huge explosion sounded, a large shell rang out over the position, and a volunteer army was blown into the air. "Dodge the cannon!" The company commander on the position shouted, and the volunteers on the position immediately ran into the artillery hole, and soon the explosions on the position became one, and the huge explosion was deafening! The volunteers on the position, whether it was the company commander or the volunteer soldiers, did not expect such a fierce artillery bombardment, although they entered the artillery hole, but there were still many soldiers who died because the artillery hole was blown up, and some soldiers were shocked to death by the explosion, and even part of the tunnel was blown up! The shells had not stopped, the planes in the sky also came, and the heavy aerial bombs and large * were thrown down one by one, and the two positions of 597.9 and 537.7 in Wusheng Mountain were completely plunged into a sea of explosions and fire!

"Why doesn't this cannon stop?" The commander of the 2nd South Korean Division muttered to himself as he watched the explosion on Gosung Mountain. "Mr. Division Commander," the intelligence officer of the U.S. Army glanced at the commander of the South Korean Second Division and said, "Because of your incompetence, we have to waste more shells and * to open the way for you, this offensive operation we have prepared hundreds of thousands of shells and thousands of *, if you can't successfully take these two small positions by then, you know the result!" "With such firepower to open the way, we can completely take these two positions with a single charge!" The commander of the South Korean Second Division did not seem to be threatened by the US military intelligence officer at all, but said in high spirits. "I hope you can do what you say!" The U.S. military intelligence officer looked at the commander of the South Korean Second Division with disdain and said. "We're going to win!" said the commander of the 2nd South Korean Division.

"Report, the enemy suddenly attacked our two heights of 597.9 and 537.7 with extremely heavy artillery fire!" The communications corps came in to report. "What?" The chief of staff of the fifteenth army stood up sharply: "When did it start?" "Twenty minutes ago, the enemy's artillery fire was extremely fierce, and we had lost contact with the position!" Said the communications officer. "How can you lose contact? Isn't there a walkie-talkie? The chief of staff asked. The situation is not clear, but communication has not been restored! Said the communications officer. Be sure to contact the position reply, I'll report to the commander! The chief of staff of the fifteenth army said. Be! "The communications corps ran out! The chief of staff of the fifteenth army ran to the cave of the commander of the fifteenth army, Qin!

"Commander, the enemy has launched an attack on the two heights of 597.9 and 537.7!" The chief of staff of the 15th Army reported to the commander of Qin. "How's the situation on the ground?" Commander Qin picked up the binoculars and walked out while asking, and the chief of staff followed closely and said, "We haven't made contact with the position yet, but the enemy's shelling is very fierce!" "Let's go and see!" Commander Qin walked out with the chief of staff!

After arriving outside, Commander Qin looked over with a telescope, and the two positions of the Five Holy Mountains were still full of flames and explosions! "How long has the enemy been attacking?" Commander Qin asked. "It's been forty minutes since the attack, and the enemy's shelling has not stopped!" A staff officer beside him said. "So long?" Commander Qin said in surprise: "Usually, even if it is artillery cover, the longest is only half an hour, but this time it has been forty minutes, see that this situation has not stopped!" "We're trying to figure out how to get in touch with the position!" said the chief of staff.

"Have you made contact with Command?" The company commander on the 597:5 position asked his communications officer. "Company commander, we have no way to get in touch with the command!" The communications soldier said sadly: "All thirteen of our antennas have been blown up, the enemy's artillery fire is so fierce that our antennas have just been blown up!" "Then wait, I don't believe that the Americans' artillery can't stop, he has to replenish the shells, I don't believe it can explode until tomorrow morning!" The company commander said angrily and helplessly. In fact, the company commander still underestimated the artillery fire of the US troops, and the artillery attack of the US troops not only lasted until dawn, but also lasted for two days. Because the U.S. military really prepared hundreds of thousands of artillery shells and enough aviation*, in order to be able to directly blow up the defense capability of the two heights. In addition to his lack of confidence in the South Korean troops, Van Vliet had no choice but to make such a decision, he really did not have enough courage to bear more casualties and defeats!

In fact, the reason why Van Vliet wanted to launch this battle is also a private reason, that is, Van Vliet is about to reach the retirement age, the retirement system of the US army is very strict, now Van Vliet is already a general, and he is about to reach retirement age, for a long time before, the US army and the volunteer army have been in a stalemate, dissatisfied with this state, Van Vliet tried his best to break the deadlock, but several times tried all tricks to be beaten by the volunteers, Van Vliet was unwilling to allow himself to end up being beaten on the battlefield of North Korea. Another reason is that Van Vliet's son Van Vliet Jr. was shot down by the Volunteer Air Defense Force when he was piloting a plane to bomb the Volunteer Army's transportation line, and no one was seen alive or dead, which made Van Vliet heartbroken. Thinking that he could recover his son's body, Van Vliet specially asked the volunteer representatives who came to negotiate, hoping that the volunteer army could help find his son's body, and the volunteer negotiators agreed!

The Volunteer Army agreed to Van Vliet's request, and after coming back, he did help to find it, but he really couldn't find it, there are many reasons for his disappearance in the war, such as falling into the deep mountains and ravines, being blown to pieces by shells, or being burned to ashes by the fire, etc., no one knows what is going on with this little Van Vliet, anyway, he can't find it! After the representative of the Volunteer Army contacted the representative of the American side again, Van Vliet once again sent someone to inquire about the news, and the representative of the Volunteer Army sent a representative of the People's Army to inform Van Vliet's people because he had something at hand, and said that he was indeed looking for it, but he could not find it! It was a very simple matter, but this representative of the People's Army was a soldier of the People's Army who hated US imperialism so much, and he actually told Van Vliet in a tough way: You go back and tell the old Van Vliet that his son Van Vliet Jr. participated in an unjust war and served as cannon fodder for US imperialism, and he was killed on the spot by our army, and there are no bones left! These words made Van Vliet so angry that he almost had a heart attack. Van Vliet, who was extremely unwilling to accept his son's death, was determined to take revenge, but because he was beaten to the ground some time ago, Van Vliet's plans were all rejected by the commander-in-chief of the United Nations forces, Li Qiwei.

However, the situation is different now, the opening of the seventh session of the UN General Assembly is imminent, and the DPRK issue will be submitted to the new session of the UN General Assembly for discussion, and the US authorities urgently need the cooperation of the United Nations forces in military operations in the DPRK in order to occupy a politically advantageous position. At the same time, a little stimulus for victory is needed that will help to pull the other participating countries of the UN forces to invest more forces and gain more initiative at the Panmunjom armistice negotiating table. For this reason, the US representative unilaterally suspended the meeting and announced an indefinite adjournment. At the same time, Ridgway's successor, Clark, approved Van Vliet's showdown battle plan. Van Vliet saw that his plan had finally been approved. Seeing that his battle plan was finally approved, he happily told his commander: You can let the aircraft artillery speak. On the opening day of the UN General Assembly, Van Vliet officially began his battle plan, with the US 7th Division and the South Korean 2nd Division attacking the 597.9 Heights and the 537.7 Heights Buksan respectively. But before that, the first thing to do is to carry out a two-day fire bombardment of the main position of the Volunteer Army's Wusheng Mountain and the Shangganling area.

Commander Qin, who didn't know anything about Van Vliet, was now concerned about what happened to his soldiers in the two positions. Watching the artillery of the US army go off for a day and a night, Commander Qin, who has always been calm, also began to curse, but there was nothing he could do, he couldn't send people up with such a fierce artillery fire, so he could only watch and be anxious! After waiting for two days, the artillery fire of the American army finally stopped, and Commander Qin immediately sent two squads to the position to reinforce the position, and by the way, he checked the situation on the position and reported it back. As a result, after the reinforcements were brought up, the report also came immediately, and the losses on the position were much higher than their own estimates, and the losses of the two companies on the position were as high as 80 percent, and most of them were killed or shocked. After receiving the report, Commander Qin immediately realized that he had sent fewer reinforcements, and after two days of artillery fighting, the opponent's attack would begin immediately!

Commander Qin was not wrong at all, the South Korean Second Division and the US Seventh Division, which had been prepared for a long time, launched an attack on the two heights in the first time, although Commander Qin lined up two squads of reinforcements to go up, but the combatants on the two heights were only a few dozen, and in the face of the swarming US troops and the South Korean army, the volunteers on the two heights still did not hesitate to enter the battle! The position that he thought could be taken down with a single charge after two days of attack, but still fired a dense number of bullets. The South Korean troops who rushed to the first batch did not bend down, they all rushed up in a daze, intending to grab the first credit, so after the bullets of the volunteers were fired, the effect was surprisingly good, after the first round of shooting, the South Korean army was killed more than 100 people, watching hundreds of people being killed, the South Korean army lived up to expectations and once again rushed to retreat! The commander of the 2nd South Korean Division rushed forward and killed several soldiers with his pistol, but he could not stop the retreating South Korean soldiers.

The commander of the 2nd South Korean Division, who originally felt ashamed and embarrassed, felt that he would definitely be ridiculed and scolded by the US military intelligence officer, but he found that the 7th Division of the US Army had also retreated in disgrace!
