"Generals!" Van Vliet looked at the generals and division commanders below and said, "We have been fighting in the Shangganling area for half a month, although our losses are not large, but the ammunition consumption is unprecedented, and our friendly forces have suffered huge losses, but so far, we have only occupied the surface position, and have not completely eliminated the enemy in the tunnel, so we will not be able to make an effective breakthrough at all, let alone attack the enemy in depth!" "General!" The commander of the 7th Division of the US Army stood up and said: "Those Chinese are indeed stubborn, their tunnel battles remind me of the Japanese, I suggest that the troops be issued with a large number of flamethrowers and gas ammunition, otherwise we will not be able to effectively break through the enemy hiding underground!" ”

"I've thought about your suggestion, and that's what we've decided!" Van Vliet said, "I have ordered a shipment of flamethrowers and gas ammunition to be brought to your command, and the enemy who has burrowed into the hole will be destroyed at all costs!" "Yes!" The commander of the 7th Division of the US Army said loudly. "One more thing, in view of the fact that the offensive on only the two heights of Shangganling has not achieved much success, the Joint Chiefs of Staff has decided to send two additional divisions and seven South Korean divisions to expand the offensive area in the Shangganling area in order to achieve a flank breakthrough against the enemy!" Van Vliet exclaimed. "But sir, in that case we need more artillery and planes, if we don't have enough firepower... A general said. "We have already taken this into account, and four South Korean artillery divisions will assist us in our new offensive points!" Van Vliet said.

"Comrades, the battle in Shangganling has been going on for half a month, and so far, although we have eliminated many enemies, we have also suffered great losses. As soon as Shiji came in, he reported that since entering the stalemate stage, the United Nations, led by the US military, has relied on its superiority in equipment to continuously launch local attacks on us and occupy our positions by encroachment, and although we have carried out a powerful counterattack, we are still in a passive state, and because of logistical and political reasons, we cannot launch a large-scale campaign. The location of Shangganling is extremely important, and the Zhi Si ordered us to resist the enemy's attack at any cost here, not give an inch, let the enemy meet in Shangganling, and curb their favorite local attacks, so from now on, without an order, all departments must not take a step back, and those who violate the order will be punished as deserters! Lawfully kill on sight! The commander of the 15th Army, Qin Army, murderously announced the order of the Zhi Division, and the commanders below heard it clearly, and shouted loudly, "Resolutely complete the task and resolutely block the enemy's attack!" ”

"There is another thing, now the Americans intend to expand the scale of the campaign, and they have the intention of launching a broad attack within ten kilometers along our Shangganling line, so, Division Commander Liu Hai!" Commander Qin looked left and right, looking for the figure of bangs. "Here!" Bangs stand up! "You are our biggest firepower pillar, and the artillery under your command must be reasonably arranged, and strive to give the greatest artillery support along the line! But it is necessary to focus on the two highlands of Shangganling! Commander Qin said. Be! Bangs replied. All in all, since the Americans want to expand the scale of the campaign, we will accompany him, and we will fight with him for as long as he wants! No matter how long the fight lasts, we must fight until we win a complete victory, and we must let them know that the Chinese and North Korean people will not be intimidated by the cannon of US imperialism! Commander Qin looked around at everyone and said. Be! The commanders stood up and replied.

"Master Liuhai, wait a minute!" After the meeting, Commander Qin stopped Liu Hai, who was about to leave. "Comrade Commander, is there anything else?" Bangs paused and asked. "Come with me to the war room!" After speaking, Commander Qin walked to the war room, and Liu Hai hurriedly followed. After entering the war room, Commander Qin took out a material and handed it to Liu Hai. "What is this?" When I took the bangs, I saw that the paper looked like a map. "This is information obtained at the expense of four North Korean sleepers!" Commander Qin said: "This place, twenty-five kilometers away from our front line, is a small warehouse, the Americans brought a batch of gas ammunition, and it is stored here!" "Twenty-five kilometers!" Bangs said: "At this distance, my cannon can't hit it at all!" Also, what is gas ammunition? Gas bombs"

"This is not a poison gas bomb, it is a bacteriological weapon and some tear gas, as for the poison gas bomb," Commander Qin said, "The Americans do not dare to use it openly on the Korean battlefield, because we have the support of the Soviet big brother behind us, and if they use it, we can also get the same equipment from the Soviet Union, and the Americans came to Korea in the name of the United Nations Army, and the United Nations has a clear prohibition on the use of poison gas bombs, so once they use it, we can also use it, but for the Americans, Once they use it, it will be tantamount to violating the constitution of the United Nations, and then they will fall into passivity diplomatically and politically, and the flag of the United Nations army will not be able to be frozen! ”

"Didn't you mean to let me kill this warehouse? At such a long distance, I am afraid it is extremely difficult! It's not even possible! Bangs said. You misunderstood, not with guns, but with people! Commander Qin said, "Isn't that brigade commander under you extremely good at assault and interspersed operations?" You're trying to ask if your troops can do the job! "Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! Liu Hai said solemnly. The key is not to destroy it, but to capture some samples back, and the samples they get back will become key physical evidence of the US military's bacteriological warfare on the Korean battlefield! Commander Qin said, "This is the general personally ordered by the boss, it is said that the brigade commander under your command once sent people to the vicinity of Zhisi to conduct reconnaissance, and said that he wanted to rob the law field?" Is this true? Commander Qin asked. This thing is true! "Bangs probably told the original thing!

"Hahaha, no wonder the boss always ordered his general! Oh my God! This kind of character can't do it without guts, and it's not easy to go deep into the enemy's depth of 25 kilometers, and there are many dangers along the way, and you have to take samples back! Don't you want to ask the brigade commander for advice? Commander Qin asked. No! Bangs said, "You just let him go to Washington and screw Truman's head off, he dares to go, and I have confidence in him that he will definitely be able to complete the task!" Bangs said. Good! Then I'm waiting for your good news! Commander Qin said, "By the way, the scale of the campaign has expanded, the Twelfth Army has also been transferred to participate in the battle, and his Second Artillery Division is also under your command!" "Yes!" Bangs said.

"Division commander, can't we fight back?" As soon as Liu Hai returned to the division headquarters, Liu Xiaoshan forced him up and asked. "Are you idle?" Bangs asked. "No, although we sent some water to the tunnel last time, the U.S. military has strengthened fire control, and now the long, medium and near fire system is extremely complete, and today two more batches of supply teams died on the way to the tunnel! I heard that the soldiers in the pit have started drinking pee! Liu Xiaoshan said. But the counterattack requires the consent of Commander Qin! Liu Hai thought for a while, "That's it, you prepare the troops, I'll go and apply to Commander Qin, anyway, he has a very important task for you to complete now!" "An important task? What task? Liu Xiaoshan asked.

"See this map?" Liu Hai gave Liu Xiaoshan the map he took from Commander Qin, "There is a small warehouse twenty-five kilometers away from our front line, where the Americans store bacteriological weapons, and the boss wants to send a capable force to attack this warehouse and seize some samples of American bacteriological weapons back as evidence that the Americans used bacteriological weapons on the Korean battlefield!" "Twenty-five kilometers, blow up this warehouse, get some samples back?" Liu Xiaoshan put the map aside: "This is also a mission?" Division commander, as long as you can let me fight a counterattack, even if I only take position No. 4, so that the soldiers in the tunnel can have water to drink, I promise to bring back the samples of the Americans' bacteriological weapons to you! "Don't take it lightly, I heard that the Americans have increased their troops again, and now the military strength on the opposite side is gathered, don't go in and can't get out, be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years, don't know how to spare your life because you haven't died until now!" Bangs said. "I know, my wife hasn't been found yet, so I'm willing to die!"

"What? You want to go in and fight back locally? Commander Qin looked at Liu Hai and asked, "Now is the time when the enemy is preparing to attack?" Besides, the No. 4 position is not easy to hold, right? "I've already seen it, as long as we take down the No. 4 position, and take down the small high ground next to the No. 4 position, the Americans will take the No. 4 position without a move, and we can firmly control the small high ground with artillery fire!" Liu Hai said: "The most important thing is to take the No. 4 position, which can open up the supply line to the tunnel, at least it will not be because of a bucket of water, and several people will not be unable to send it!" "Well, you can attack position four, but remember, don't suffer too many casualties, the American attack will start soon!" Commander Qin instructed. "Don't worry, Commander, I promise nothing will be delayed!" Liu Hai said solemnly.

"Liu Xiaoshan, Commander Qin has promised us to carry out a local counterattack, take the fourth position, and open up the supply line to the tunnel!" Bangs came back and said. "Yes! I promise to take position 4 in one day! Liu Xiaoshan said excitedly. It's not just the No. 4 position, but also the small high ground next to it, if there is no cover from that small high ground, even if the No. 4 position is taken down, you can't hold it! Bangs said. Rest assured, no problem! Liu Xiaoshan said. But Liu Xiaoshan didn't expect that it was that small high ground that almost left all the soldiers of his company there!
