"Mr. Peng, Liu Haishi's attack failed!" Han Xianchu came over and said. "What? Doesn't Liuhai have artillery, and there is a brigade of troops, and he can't take a hill? Mr. Peng asked loudly. This time the situation is special, the US garrison is strong, Liu Xiaoshan's brigade has not taken several attacks, and the brigade commander Liu Xiaoshan has been seriously injured, and now he has been evacuated! Han Xianchu said. What the? Mr. Peng asked in surprise: "What kind of unit is the other party?" "It is said to be the ace unit of the U.S. Army, it seems to be called the Wislak Engineer Regiment, which fought the Battle of Kuah Island in the Pacific during the Anti-Japanese War, and also fought the Japanese in Burma, and now it really doesn't look simple!" Han Xianchu said.

"What now?" Han Xianchu said: "Now that the three divisions of the 60th Army are gathered in such a small area, once the US air force is concentrated and assaulted, the casualties are not acceptable to us!" "We can't withdraw now, we must not retreat, tell the 60th Army that we must take the US positions on the opposite side tonight and open a breakthrough in the battle!" Mr. Peng looked at the map solemnly, "Now once you retreat, the whole situation will fall into passivity!" "Alright! I'll go and give the order now! "After Han Xianchu finished speaking, he ran to convey the order!" Ordered Liu Hai to take his artillery regiment to the 60th Army for reinforcements, the commander of the 4th Artillery Division withdrew for me, and the 4th Artillery Division and the 8th Artillery Division were all under the command of Liu Hai, and a breakthrough must be opened on the Western Front! Mr. Peng said, "Is there a summary of the battle report now?" "Yes!" Han Xianchu ran to the staff office and brought a summary of the battle situation!

After the 20th Army broke through, it quickly opened a 10-kilometer-wide gap in front of the 6th Division of the ROK puppet army, but due to the lack of follow-up forces, it could not be fully utilized to expand the results of the battle. The 63rd Army of the 19th Corps on the right flank annihilated a battalion of the 29th Brigade of the British Army on 25 July, but because the 189th Division, the second echelon of the army, failed to complete the task of interspersing and blocking the attack, it was unable to completely annihilate the 29th Brigade of the British Army. After the 64th Army broke through, it was blocked on the south bank of the Imjin River, and two divisions of the 65th Army, the second echelon of the Corps, immediately joined the battle, and were also blocked; the five divisions were crowded in a narrow area of 20 square kilometers, and it was very likely that they would be attacked by enemy air and artillery fire, suffer heavy casualties, and would not be able to complete the roundabout tasks of the campaign. Although the other armies achieved some victories after breaking through, they formed a flat push and did not destroy many enemies. or because the penetration is not fierce, or the enemy quickly breaks through all or most of them to escape. After the campaign was launched, the Korean People's Army Group on the Eastern Front launched an attack on the enemy north of Inje with an active eastward movement and annihilated the 5th Division of the ROK Puppet Army. "Han Xianchu made a report on the recent battle situation!" This means that there is no progress on the part of the 20th and 60th armies, right? Mr. Peng asked. Yes, and this afternoon the air power of the US army began to carry out a surprise attack on the Sixty Army, and the casualties were heavy! Han Xianchu said. Tell the troops of Bang Hai to stop advancing, and now in the past can only cause unnecessary losses! Mr. Peng said.

"Division commander, I'm sorry, I didn't capture it this time!" Liu Xiaoshan was covered in bandages and said to Liu Hai. "You fought a tie back then, and now you have a draw, the difference from last time is that you killed Wislak, and the U.S. military is afraid that there will be no such ace army in the future, so take care of your injuries!" Bangs said. "Yes! Brigade! Liu Xiaoshan said weakly. Find a car and take him back to the general hospital in the back! Bangs said to his staff officer. Division commander, there is a telegram from headquarters! Another staff officer sent a telegram as he spoke. I'm just letting me go now, I'm afraid it's too late! Bangs took the telegram and muttered. Inform Wu Fatzi to open and prepare to go to the area of the Sixty Army, and the ghost cannon does not need to come back, and directly turn around and converge on Hongjiadao! Liu Xiaoshan's brigade retreated fifteen kilometers for repair! ”

"Divisional Commander!" The ghost cannon jumped into the jeep with bangs. "What's going on? Hit like this? "Liu Hai is very dissatisfied with Liu Xiaoshan and the ghost cannon's attack this time!" I really don't blame us for this, this Veslak Engineer Regiment really has two hits, you said that the Americans usually have a beating nature, they are far away, and the ground-to-air artillery fire is scattered, and when they rush up, as soon as we flash the bayonet, we basically run away with our heads, but this Veslak Engineer Regiment actually took Liu Xiaoshan with a bayonet seriously, and Liu Xiaoshan was scratched by Wislak! "The ghost cannon is also quite speechless.

"Don't move too fast!" Liu Hai said coldly. "Not too fast? Why? Fat Wu asked with some surprise. It's been more than a day, and the air power of the US military has begun to attack, and now we can only be bombed back and forth by planes when we rush over! Bangs said. What about the order? Wu Fatzi said. There will be orders! Bangs said. Wu Fatzi and Gui Jie told their troops to slow down their advance! Sure enough, less than half an hour later, the second telegram arrived! "The order says let's stop advancing!" The correspondent said. "Stop advancing, the whole army will be camouflaged and hidden on the spot!" Bangs said. "You are too godly, Master, you have taken this Mr. Peng's pulse so accurately!" Wu Fatzi said. "It's not that I'm right, the current situation is like this, and the Sixty Army will be miserable!" Bangs glanced over there and said.

"Division commander, this can't be done, we have already suffered more than 1,000 casualties, and if we continue like this, we will all die here!" A regiment commander came over with a face full of gunpowder smoke and shouted! "If you can't do it, you have to do it, organize the machine guns, shoot at the air, and the rifles will be fired at me in the sky, and no one is allowed to retreat half a step back without an order!" The division commander himself knew what the situation of his troops was, and they were wantonly ravaged by the opponent's superior air force in an uncovered area, but now there was no order, and the division commander did not dare to retreat without authorization! "Hurry up and ask what's going on in front of you, one division and one artillery regiment can't do one South Korean division, they're dead!" The division commander said fiercely. "But not now, it's been two days, and if it goes on like this, our division will all die here," the chief of staff of the division also said unwillingly.

"What the hell is going on?" The division commanders who attacked in front were about to go crazy, and Mr. Peng had already sent a telegram, if he couldn't take it down today, he would come and see him! "Division commander, it's really a hell, the top is too hard, our two regiments are gone, we just can't rush up!" A seriously injured regiment commander was crying! "Don't talk about it, gather all the troops and follow me, either you will die here today, or you will break through the positions of the Americans, there is no third way! Guard Company! Follow me! "The division commander drew his pistol and rushed out with his own guard battalion!

"Mr. Peng, the commander of the former division of the 60th Army was wounded, and the attack of the troops was a complete failure!" Han Xianchu said very depressedly. "What the hell is going on? I don't believe that a full-strength volunteer division plus an artillery division can't beat a South Korean division! Mr. Peng said angrily. Things have been figured out, they are not the South Korean division, but the 18th division of the US army, this unit is the US army unit that has just arrived on the Korean battlefield this year, it used to be the * division, and the equipment is excellent, especially their machine gunners and mortars, which are so fierce that two-thirds of our casualties were killed by machine guns and mortars! Han Xianchu said, "But this division has also been disabled in the past few days, and now the enemy has retreated!" The main forces of the enemy withdrew to Seoul and the North Han River, and a stubborn resistance was organized south of the Soyang River. The Chinese and North Korean armies have lost their enemy fighters! "In this way, end the first phase of the campaign, quickly adjust the deployment, replenish food and ammunition, and prepare for another battle." Mr. Peng said. "Yes!" Han Xianchu said. "Wait a minute!" Mr. Peng stopped Han Xianchu. "Is there anything else, Mr. Peng?" Han Xianchu stood still, twisted back to look at Peng Dehuai and asked.

"According to the usual practice, as soon as we withdraw, the Americans will follow, I don't think it will be surprising this time, this time the Americans are very likely to fight from the direction of the 60th Army, the three divisions will be withdrawn to replenish, and the bangs will not be withdrawn, and the blocking position will be established on the spot to block the possible tailgating of the Americans, and the commander of the avant-garde division of the 60th Army is not wounded? The avant-garde division also remained, unified under the command of Liu Hai, covering the retreat of the whole army! Mr. Peng said: "Other directions on the Western Front should also properly arrange blocking troops!" The blocking troops must hold on to the death, and they cannot retreat without orders! Violators will be punished as deserters! Mr. Peng looked at the map for a while and said. I know! Han Xianchu agreed.

"Division commander, the order has come, order us to enter the position of the Sixty Army! The avant-garde division of the 60th Army will stay with us, and it will be under the command of you, the division commander! The staff officer came over and said. Tell Wu Fatzi and the ghost artillery to take the lead in arranging the artillery position on the spot, and the whole army of Liu Xiaoshan's brigade will assemble, and the commander of the first regiment will temporarily serve as the brigade commander, and enter the position of the 60th Army with me! Bangs said. Be! The staff officer said yes and went out! Liu Hai looked at the map and found that the American positions attacked by the 60th Army were very good, and if you want to hold on, you must capture the position in front of you, so that you can at least have some advantages in the terrain, otherwise you will not be able to successfully defend on the enemy's condescending terrain! "Send a telegram to the headquarters to see if there is any news of the enemy in front of me, I feel that the troops on the other side do not look like ordinary South Korean troops!" Bangs said.

"Report to the division commander, the enemy we face is the 18th Division of the US Army, which is a unit that has just arrived in North Korea, and it is well-equipped!" The staff officer said with the telegram he received. "The U.S. military unit that just joined is not the South Korean Division?" Bangs frowned! "It was we who changed the defense before the battle, and we didn't grasp the situation in time!" The staff officer said. "Then kill it first!" Liu Hai tapped on the map, "Inform Wu Fatzi and the ghost artillery, after arranging the position, first prepare for air defense, and then shoot a hundred shells at the opposite position every half an hour!" ”
