Chapter 9: The General Attack on Liutanli (2)

At the moment when the No. 608 tank rolled over on the ground, the No. 108 tank quickly blocked in front of the No. 608 tank, and Zhao Feihu, the instructor of the 1st Battalion of the 176th Regiment and several soldiers surrounded him; "How's it going?" The instructor of the first battalion asked worriedly, "It's okay, it's all minor injuries." The two logisticians who fell to the ground and the fighters who had just climbed out of the tank said almost simultaneously. It's not a big deal, hurry up and repair the car, the battlefield needs us! Zhao Feihu made a quick decision. While several fighters and the logistics platoon commander who had rushed to reinforce the vehicle were repairing the vehicle, tank No. 107 and tank No. 607 rushed over; "Whoosh...... Rumble! Tank No. 107 and Tank No. 607 quickly locked onto the target and opened fire, and the explosion of "Boom Boom Boom ......" was heard, and four more tanks of the American Army were destroyed. This is two companies of the 7th Regiment of the US Army under the cover of US armored vehicles have rushed to the front of the 1021 position, and a company of the Volunteer Army has started a white-knuckle battle with the US army.......

Tanks No. 107 and No. 108 opened fire again after a slight adjustment, destroying two American tanks that were about to rush to the position, and the volunteer infantry blew up an American tank and two armored vehicles that rushed into the 1021 heights; Tank No. 607 destroyed two more American armored vehicles, and with the efforts of the logistics support detachment, the newly repaired tank No. 608 quickly entered the battle and fired fiercely at the rushing American troops. After half an hour of fierce fighting, the remaining 4 American tanks, 10 armored vehicles, and the American troops attacking the 1021 heights retreated......

When the 7th Regiment of the US Army attacked the junction and tried to aid the 5th Regiment of the US Army, the composite detachment of our army and the 5 regiments of the Volunteer Army who were attacking head-on in Liutanli were storming the second line of defense of the US army; "Boom, boom, boom, boom......" "Boom, boom, da, da......." The tanks and combat vehicles rushing to the front fired accurately at the light and heavy machine gun fire points of the US defense line, and Major Tom, who was directing the defense of the second line of defense, watched the US fire points disappear rapidly one by one, and the Chinese People's Volunteers got closer and closer to the defense line; Colonel, we can't stand it anymore; Chinese I'm about to rush up......" Tom thought to Jamio again for help. While Tom was speaking, Li Weiguo led tanks and combat vehicles to rush into the second line of defense of the US army; The strength of a regiment of the Volunteer Army followed the tanks and combat vehicles and immediately rushed into the second line of defense of the US army, and the infantry of the Volunteer Army and the US troops in the defense line engaged in close-range white-knuckle combat and hand-to-hand combat...... Major Tom was knocked down by a tank of our army when the tanks of the special operations detachment rushed through the second line of defense, and saw their God, Li Weiguo led the tanks and combat vehicles to rush into the US defense line and continued to shoot at the US troops in the defense line; If it's too close, just hit it..... In just 10 minutes, the composite detachment and volunteer infantry completely solved the American troops in the second line of defense; Tanks, combat vehicles, and volunteer infantry of the composite detachment rushed to the third line of defense of the American army...... At the same time, the other four regiments of the Volunteer Army's general offensive moved towards the two flanks of the US Army in Liutanli, and were about to complete the final encirclement of the 5th Regiment of the 1st Marine Division.......

"Tom, hold on, my third line of defense is about to be deployed; General Smith's reinforcements had already set out from Xiajieyu half an hour earlier, and they would be able to reach Liutanli half an hour after the last small col. Tom...... Tom ...... "Jamio is still encouraging and calling Major Tom, but Tom can't hear him anymore......

While Jamio was arranging the third line of defense for the final struggle, the deputy commander of the 1st Marine Division led two regiments that had rushed in from Xiajieyuli to reinforce them, supported by 30 tanks, 20 armored vehicles, and 10 105mm howitzers, were passing through the last small col (after which it was a flat river)......

Zhao Kailai, Liu Baoguo, commander of the 237th Regiment, and Tong Jianjian, political commissar, were observing the US troops passing through the mountain pass at a commanding height, "Looking at the equipment and formation, the troops reinforced by the US army must have two regiments; We're going to have to adjust the battle plan we've just discussed. Political Commissar Tong Jianshe said, "Our regiment has suffered a large number of attrition after the first two days of operations, and I originally thought that if the US army came to a regiment, we would eat a regiment of the US army with the cooperation of tanks and combat vehicles; It seems that the attack can only be stopped according to the original plan. "The head of the regiment, Liu Baoguo, said with some regret;" We must take out the enemy's tanks, artillery, and armored vehicles in the col first, and this task will be completed by our composite detachment. Zhao Kai said. In that case, the composite detachment focused on destroying enemy artillery, tanks, and armored vehicles; We focused on striking at the enemy's infantry, and after the enemy's artillery, tanks, and armored vehicles were all destroyed, we rushed down to drive the enemy out of the mountain pass; After driving the enemy out of the col, resolutely hold back the enemy at the entrance to the col and on several small heights around it; Do not allow the enemy to advance until the end of the general assault on Liutanli. Liu Baoguo said. Agree! Zhao Kailai and political commissar Tong Jianshe expressed their support in unison. Zhao Kailai returned to the synthetic detachment to assign tasks, and Liu Baoguo and Tong Jianshe explained the tasks to the battalion commanders and company commanders at the same time.......

"After all the enemy's heavy equipment has entered the mountain pass, tanks No. 109 and 110 will first destroy the enemy's tank head car and the last artillery of the enemy's heavy equipment team; Then the tank and the tank will find their own target, knock out the enemy tank as soon as possible, destroy the enemy tank, and then destroy the enemy armored vehicle! Zhao Kailai explained the task to the tank platoon commander and the tank platoon commander, "Understand, don't worry, instructor!" The two platoon commanders replied in unison. A few seconds later, "boom...... Whoosh....... "Two tanks and tanks fired; "Boom, boom......." Soon the two tanks at the front of the US army and the two artillery pieces at the back of the US military equipment team were shot and exploded....... "Comrades, aim at the enemy's infantry and armored vehicles, and hit hard!" Liu Baoguo, commander of the 237th Regiment, and Tong Jianjian, political commissar, issued combat orders to the troops. "Dadada....... The machine guns and rifles of the volunteers fired fiercely at the enemy in the col, and the .......grenades were thrown into the col one after another, and the sound of explosions continued to sound in the vicinity of the US infantry crowd and US armored vehicles............. U.S. reinforcements were caught off guard by the sudden blow....... The deputy division commander and two regiment commanders of the US army immediately got out of the car and commanded the US troops to meet the battle.......
