Plan approval

"Hasn't the enemy moved yet?" Van Vliet asked anxiously. "So far, there is no sign of a transfer!" Van Vliet's chief of staff said. "Could it be that the Chinese have already obtained our information? It shouldn't be! Van Vliet said. So far, there has been no leakage of information, but Commander, if the Chinese do not mobilize troops, our plan will not be approved! The chief of staff said with some concern. I think General Clark would have agreed! Van Vliet said, because that's what the president meant!

Besides, Clark was relieved to hear that the Volunteer Army did not mobilize its forces because of Van Vliet's feint. As long as there is no longer a large-scale campaign, the two sides can quickly return to the negotiating table, and only negotiations, the signing of decent contracts, and the cessation of this war are the key to solving all the problems of the moment! Now that Van Vliet has not met his demands, he can justifiably reject Van Vliet's plan! But Clark kept it simple. Eisenhower, a Republican running campaign at home, wrote a personal letter to Clark, and just as Clark was about to reject Van Vliet's plan to attack, Clark received a letter from Eisenhower!

Eisenhower was born in the military, and his experience in World War II was Eisenhower's glorious political capital. But now the Korean War has made the American people think that the American army has become the devil who took away their children, because most Americans, and even some American soldiers, do not understand why they came to North Korea to fight in this ghost place, and they still lose the war. The rising casualties and the fact that Americans saw the war as meaningless had caused the image of the American military to plummet, which negatively affected Eisenhower's military background and reduced his political capital to participate in World War II. Eisenhower understood that the only way now was to raise the image of the military by winning a battle!

When Van Vliet's plan reached Truman, Eisenhower also knew about it, and Eisenhower, who also hoped that the U.S. military would win a battle, quickly found the location of Shangganling on the map. Unlike Truman, Eisenhower did not need military advisers at all, because Eisenhower himself had participated in the bloody World War II and had extremely rich experience in operational command.

As a veteran soldier, Eisenhower certainly knew the approval process for the U.S. military's battle plan, and in this process, the most important person was General Clark, commander of the U.S. Far East Command! But Eisenhower was not president at this time, and he couldn't give orders or dictate to the front line from any aspect, but Clark was a Republican and a good friend of Eisenhower, so Eisenhower wrote a letter to Clark, and when expressing his greetings, he vaguely hoped that Clark would approve Van Vliet's plan! After Clark read the letter, after some speculation, Clark decided that Eisenhower was likely to win this election, so Clark decided to agree to Van Vliet's plan. Clark's change of attitude led to Van Vliet's plan being approved!

"Great, our plan was approved, I will avenge you, my son!" Van Vliet looked at the picture of his son and kissed him. After putting down his son's photo, Van Vliet straightened his military uniform and walked outside to the conference room. In the conference room were the main commanders of the 7th Division and the 2nd South Korean Division. "Gentlemen, our new offensive plan has been approved, it is time to teach those Chinese a good lesson!" Van Vliet said to the officers at the table. "Commander, please give an order, our second division will definitely fully cooperate with the Allied forces!" The commander of the 2nd South Korean Division immediately stood up and said. "Good!" Van Vliet glanced at the commander of the South Korean Second Division, nodded and said, "The task I gave you is that the South Korean Second Division and my Seventh Division will take Sangganling within two days!" ”

The reason why Van Vliet gave such an order was because Van Vliet was a man who only knew that fire was the winner, and after Van Vliet's plan was approved, Van Vliet transferred another hundred large-caliber heavy guns and enlisted air support from twenty aircraft, so Van Vliet was determined to take those two heights within two days. Those two heights have been reconnoitred, and all the fortifications on them have turned to powder, as long as two divisions press at the same time, they can be taken. Van Vliet focused his offensive on the battle after the capture of these two heights!

After Van Vliet gave the order, the American offensive began again, and thousands of shells fell on the two heights, and then the South Korean army and the American army climbed up the hillside. The troops on the positions have been replenished, but because the area is really small, there is still a company of troops on the two heights! When the South Korean Army climbed up, the volunteers on the position began to block it. The attacking South Korean Army brought mortars and planned to carry out targeted fire clearance in the vicinity in order to open up an offensive channel for the troops. But the volunteers are not fish belly, the volunteers on the positions condescendingly carried out targeted killings with mortars, and then there were swarms of * and bullets! "Bastard, keep charging!" The South Korean battalion commander in charge of the attack looked at the front and shouted loudly to let his soldiers rush up, but the South Korean soldiers in front were knocked down as soon as they stood up!

The attack of the American troops on the other side was also very unsmooth, the volunteers carried out scattered arrangements on the position, the lethality of the American artillery fire was limited, and the American soldiers who rushed up were hit by intensive firepower, looking at the scattered firepower played uniformly, the American troops felt that it was impossible, but soon they knew what was going on. It turned out that the company commander of the Volunteer Army came up with a good method, that is, to use a whistle to direct the troops to shoot, different whistles represent different meanings, so the volunteer soldiers can understand the order from the sound of the whistle, so that the Volunteer Army can achieve uniform firepower. Seeing that his troops were beaten down again, the commander of the 7th Division of the US Army was also a little unable to hang up, so he asked for firepower to attack again, and the result was that the artillery of the US Army rang out again, and the position of the Volunteer Army was full of fireworks!

"Commander, although we held the position, but the enemy's fire was too fierce, the casualties of the soldiers were very large, several of them were shocked to death, and the instructor on the high ground was shocked to the point of ear and nosebleed, was blinded and deaf, and was carried down!" The chief of staff came over and said. "The Americans are playing with firepower again!" The Qin army snorted angrily, but there was no way, and most of the time they could only choose to be next to the enemy's artillery fire. "Seize the time to replenish the positions, weapons and ammunition! Don't let the enemy take a step forward! Commander Qin asked, "Didn't the headquarters say that the Eighth Artillery Division was sent over?" Haven't arrived yet? "It should be almost there, I heard that this Eighth Artillery Division is a trump card!" said the chief of staff.

"Report, Liu Hai, commander of the Eighth Artillery Division, was ordered to come and report!" Liu Hai entered the headquarters of Commander Qin and said loudly. "Division Commander Liu, you are finally here, let the Americans try our artillery!" Commander Qin said excitedly. "Our artillery they know better than we do!" Bangs said: "Because our artillery is captured by the Americans!" "Hahaha, that's good, let them also taste the power of American artillery!" Commander Qin said: "The enemy is attacking in an all-out way, and at the beginning of the attack, the hillside was full of people!" "That's the best, it's more powerful!" Bangs said.

After Liu Hai arrived, another attack by the US army began, but this time the scale of the attack was much smaller, in fact, it was a tentative attack, to see how many people were still on the position. Because of the small scale of the operation, and at this time Liu Hai was calling his two regiment commanders to find a suitable artillery position. After rushing up, because the number of opponents attacking was not large, and the attack was not too active, the volunteers on the position did not take it too seriously, so the attacking American troops came to a result, that is, the Chinese on the position were severely damaged!

The commander of the American division, who got the news, immediately came to his senses and immediately sent a regiment of troops, told the artillery to attack and cover, and blocked the area behind the position of the volunteers to prevent the reinforcements of the volunteers! When the offensive of the American army began, Liu Hai's artillery was also ready! When the U.S. offensive was launched, Liu Hai decided to give these U.S. troops a powerful blow, so he ordered two regiments to cover the area in front of the 937.7 heights! The ghost cannon and Wu Fatzi's shells basically hit a straight line, covering the entire offensive area! The exploding shells blew up the middle of the American troops who were climbing up, and the attacking American troops were blown into two sections, one in front and one in the back! Immediately followed by the recovery of the artillery line, the focus was on the section of the US army in front of the strike position, the shells moved in the direction of the position along the recovered artillery line, row by row, and the US troops who were attacking in front watched the shells explode in rows and rows, and they had to watch themselves cry wolf howls as they were blown up by the shells!

After blowing up the U.S. troops in front, the shells began to pursue and bomb the U.S. troops in the back section. And the U.S. troops in the back watched the tragic death of the U.S. troops in front of them, and retreated to the back with a hula la!
