Chapter 166: Marshall's Plan, the Last Reserve!
A flare flew into the sky at great speed, and the red light flashed in mid-air, and it was clearly visible within a radius of several miles.
"It's not good, the US military has an ambush ......"
Mei Sheng raised the binoculars, saw this scene, and immediately frowned and said.
"Boomβ"
In the distance, in the curtain of pure snow, a heavy tank of the United States Army with two personnel carriers slowly approached.
The tank's thick barrel was turning toward the Watergate Bridge, and the heavy steel tracks crushed the snowdrift in front of it while grinding against it with a squeaky metallic sound.
The U.S. troops on the two personnel carriers in the rear loaded their bullets, opened the safety with their safety, and looked nervous and ready for the next big battle.
"Fuck you! These useless bastards can keep the Volunteer Army so powerful!"
In the cockpit of the personnel carrier, a U.S. military officer, Dale, raised his binoculars and couldn't help but want to scold his mother when he saw the existing living force in the artillery platoon.
In the original plan of encirclement and annihilation of the US army, the outer defense line of the US Watergate Bridge should have used its firepower superiority to annihilate the strength of a large number of artillery platoons, and then pretended to be defeated.
Then lure the volunteers to go deeper, and then send signal flares, call reinforcements, and attack from both sides, annihilating the remaining volunteers in one fell swoop.
However, the U.S. military did not expect that the Seventh Interspersed Company's ability to attack the fortifications would be so rapid that it would tear apart the outer defense line of the Watergate Bridge at once.
The original two-sided encirclement and annihilation battle turned into an emergency defense line, and reinforcements were urgently called to protect the Watergate Bridge.
"Hmph, it's okay, at most, it's just a little more cost, and some delay."
"For an hour at most, I'm going to make all these volunteers bleed!"
Dale slammed the iron frame of the car window, looked at the volunteer army formation in front of him, a murderous aura appeared in his eyes, and he said in a low voice.
South of Watergate Bridge
Lei Gong and the others watched the reinforcements of the US army coming, and gradually looked solemn, feeling very tricky.
"Instructor, the threat of the U.S. Army's Iron King Eight is too great, or I'll take a few people to blow it up first!"
An artillery platoon veteran gritted his teeth, looked at the approaching US heavy tank, and took the initiative to ask.
"No, the heavy tanks of the US army have extremely strong firepower, not to mention the elite escort of the US army with two vehicles."
"We're being caught between the front and back, and there's no room to move around, and the risk is too great."
Mei Sheng shook his head and rejected the proposal in one fell swoop.
"Huh...... Although we can stay behind for a while, our military strength will definitely be slowly worn out. β
"If you take advantage of the fact that the U.S. military has not yet completed the flanking attack and attack the inner line with all your might, there may be a chance to blow up the Watergate Bridge......
Lei Gong clenched his cold rifle, looked in the direction of the Watergate Bridge, and muttered in a low voice.
When everyone heard Lei Gong's words, they were shocked, and a trace of determination flashed in their eyes.
According to Lei Gong's style of play, it is indeed very likely to blow up the Watergate Bridge, but that will mean that the Seventh Interspersed Company will be destroyed and destroyed together with the bridge!
In fact, in the history of the Battle of Watergate Bridge in the Korean War, the Volunteer Army could only and did use iron and blood to create such a tragic ending.
But now, the much-changed Seventh Interspersed Company has another choice!
"No, tell the comrades, brace yourself, hold your ground, and try your best to stall for time."
"The company commander and Pinghe are still fighting with all their might, as long as they break through the US military headquarters, we still have a chance to turn around......"
Mei Sheng glanced at the location of the pump room with expectant eyes, and quickly organized the defense of the position.
North of Watergate Bridge
Yu Congrong, who encountered the same situation, also set up a heavy machine gun and ordered to hold his position with all his might.
In the middle of the night, the body of the heavy tank of the US army shook violently, and large-caliber shells slammed out.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! β
Suddenly, snow flew everywhere where the shells exploded, and countless flames flew from the position of the 7th Interspersed Company.
At the same time, the US personnel carrier slowly stopped, and the US troops on it quickly landed with guns, and then under the cover of tanks, they pressed towards both ends of the Watergate Bridge.
The U.S. troops on the inner line of the Watergate Bridge wanted to attack, but they were completely annihilated on the outer line with a large number of troops, so they could only set up their guns and exert pressure with long-range shooting.
As a result, the 7th Interspersed Company and the US troops fought a tug-of-war and gradually fell into a stalemate.
The key bargaining chip to turn the balance of victory depends on whether Wu Qianli and others can successfully break through the US military command and complete the decapitation operation......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Upper Floor of Water Pump House (U.S. Army Watergate Bridge Command)
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! β
A dull explosion sounded, and the roof of the pump room trembled slightly under the action of the shock wave, and countless smoke and dust and sand rolled down.
"Ahem, ahem, ......"
"Fuck you!, can anyone tell me what's going on out there!?"
U.S. Commander Marshall was choked and coughed, slapped the table with a little anger, and asked loudly.
"Report! The latest telegram sent from the front line, the Volunteer Army is on the offensive rapidly, violently tearing apart the outer defense line of our army, and completely annihilating the defenders of the outer line! β
"Now that the situation is critical, the inner line has to launch signal flares in advance and request reinforcements from the ambush troops to protect the safety of the Watergate Bridge!"
U.S. Adjutant Powell wiped the fine sweat from his forehead and said cautiously, shocked in his heart.
"What!?"
"It's only been a long time! Our outer line of defense was torn apart by the Volunteer Army?! And the defenders are all gone!? β
When Marshall, the commander of the U.S. Army, heard this, he slammed his fist on the table in anger and yelled at Ball.
"Sir, this volunteer army is different from the previous Chinese army, they have extremely strong firepower and ......"
U.S. Adjutant Powell subconsciously took a step back and carefully explained the situation at the front.
"I don't want to listen to the explanation, tell me, how long will it take for them to completely annihilate those volunteers?"
Marshall interrupted Bauer's words and asked with angry eyes.
"Report to the sir, if nothing happens, the battle can be completely ended in two hours at the latest."
U.S. Adjutant Powell pondered for a moment and gave a relatively conservative guess.
"Two hours? Well, let's hope there aren't any more surprises. β
Marshall took a deep breath, forcibly comforted himself to calm down, and said slowly.
"That's not right! Aren't there volunteers coming in under the pump room? Why is there no movement at all? β
At the critical moment, Marshall clenched his fists very vigilantly and asked loudly.
"This ...... Maybe it was our army that annihilated all the Chinese troops, so I sent a telegram to inquire. β
U.S. Adjutant Powell didn't dare to say anything bad to provoke Marshall, and hurriedly ran to contact the troops below.
It didn't take long for Bauer, who had tried to contact him many times to no avail, slowly walking back, and the expression on his face became extremely ugly.
"Report sir, the soldiers left behind on the ground floor of our pump house seem to have lost contact with us for nearly an hour, maybe ......"
U.S. Adjutant Powell said, couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and glanced at Marshall carefully, the meaning was self-evident.
"That's not right! Sir, it seems that we still have an ammunition depot underneath, and if the Chinese army were allowed to seize it, the consequences would be unimaginable. β
Bauer suddenly remembered something, beads of sweat kept falling, and his eyes were full of panic.
But at this time, Marshall no longer panicked, but sat down slowly, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Don't panic, Bauer, in fact, if you think about it, although the direction of the battle is a little off, it is still under my control after all."
Marshall picked up the cold coffee on the table and drank it indifferently, his expression gradually regaining his composure.
"Sir, do you mean that by now, most of the ammunition depot has already been transferred?"
Bauer looked at Marshall suspiciously and asked in a low voice.
"The ammunition depot is equipped with explosives and detonating devices, and if the Chinese army kills it or shoots it inside, it will be shattered!"
"But to use this move, I didn't expect it......"
"Lieutenant Davis, you take a team of soldiers down to check the situation, and if there are any remaining enemies, annihilate them."
Marshall tried his best to pretend to be calm and light, and said in a low voice.
There's no way, if he continues to be irritable and panicked, I'm afraid that all his subordinates will be panicked and their morale will be gone, so what can he rely on to turn the tables?
"Don't worry, Chief Marshall, those Chinese troops will pay the price for their reckless behavior!"
Davis looked at Marshall's strategizing appearance, gradually gained some confidence, patted his chest and said.
By the time Davis went down with dozens of U.S. soldiers, Marshall quickly stood up from his seat.
"Listen, Bauer, now that you're in full command here, I'll be on my way to Command Command Two."
Marshall said, immediately donning the general's coat and pistol, and walking with a few of his own soldiers to a dark house in the distance.
As an old fritter on the battlefield, he sees the form of the battlefield very clearly.
Once the volunteers were given a chance to capture him, the U.S. defense line at the Watergate Bridge would almost collapse.
Therefore, Marshall simply left Davis and Ball to delay time, and the longer it dragged on, the closer it was to victory.
"Sir Obu, you can't ...... like this"
Adjutant Bauer subconsciously wanted to obstruct it, but was glared back by Marshall.
Looking at the figures of Marshall and the others gradually moving away, Bauer's face instantly darkened, and a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes.
He picked up the binoculars on the table and observed Marshall's direction in the distance, until he was sure of the location of the house that Marshall and the others had entered, and then put it down.
"I'm sorry God, he forced me to die first, I just kept the chips to survive."
U.S. Adjutant Ball looked at the flying snow curtain and muttered silently in his heart.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The bottom of the pump room
The fighters of the reconnaissance platoon did not know what was happening above, they were cleaning the battlefield, replenishing weapons and ammunition, and by the way, mending the knives of the American soldiers who were still alive.
Wu Wanli was no exception, he just found a still alive American soldier in the corner, raised a bright bayonet, and was about to stab down.
"Don't! Don't kill me! I have important information for you, sir! β
An American soldier begged for mercy in slightly stiff Chinese.
Suddenly, hearing that the U.S. military could speak Chinese, Pinghe on the side was also attracted and looked at the U.S. soldier in surprise.
"Bah, I said how can a foreign devil speak Chinese, it turns out to be a traitor?!"
Wu Wanli took a closer look, and it was actually an Asian face, and he was suddenly angry, and was about to kill him with a knife.
"Don't worry, maybe he really has something to say, call the company commander over and make a decision."
Pinghe, who was calm and calm, stretched out his hand to stop Wu Wanli, and immediately sent someone to call Wu Qianli.
Wu Qianli heard that there were still Asian Americans in the US military who could speak Chinese, and there was any important information, so he was immediately interested and hurried over.
"Sir, don't kill me, I can exchange information."
The American Asian American saw Wu Qianli being surrounded and rushed over, and hurriedly spoke.
"Tell me, what's the information?"
Wu Qianli looked at the American soldier coldly, put the bayonet against his major artery, and asked in a deep voice.
"I said, I said, don't do it!"
The American soldier's voice trembled with fear, as if he really wanted to live.
But Pinghe, who was meticulously observant, frowned, and he didn't seem to be really panicked when he looked at the eyes and body movements of this American soldier.
"We have an arsenal at the bottom of the pump room, which contains a large amount of weapons and ammunition, as well as detonators and other items for you to blow up the bridge."
The American soldier said that, slowly got up, and led Wu Qianli and the others to a hidden corner.
I saw that in that corner, there was a slightly biased door.
Through the gap in the doorway, you can see that there are indeed bare heavy machine gun muzzles, as well as a number of brass bullets and grenades exposed to the air.
"Brother, this devil didn't lie to us, there really is!"
Seeing this, Wu Wanli showed a trace of excitement on his face, and couldn't help but want to rush forward.
"Wait! There's something strange here! β
"The weapons and ammunition in the arsenal, why don't you wrap them in a tarp."
"And how could it be as if it was going to be given to us, such a coincidence?"
Wu Qianli grabbed Wu Wanli's arm and stared at the American soldier with cold eyes.
"Company commander, look below!"
Pinghe walked in a few steps to observe, found the situation on the spot, and pointed to an inconspicuous lead under the door and said.
After a look at the crowd, they immediately understood that this was a trap.
Once they break in, the explosives inside will inevitably detonate en masse, and they will all die without a place to bury.
Thinking of this, the frightened crowd looked at the American soldier with resentful eyes.
βShitοΌ Damn, I want you to go to hell with me! β
When the American soldier saw that the matter was revealed, he simply burst out, wanting to snatch the gun from Wu Qianli's hand, and then shoot and detonate the explosives.
"Hmph, look for death!"
Wu Qianli looked at the rushing US soldiers, sneered, and kicked directly at the chest of the US soldiers.
"Click-"
In an instant, there was a crisp sound of bones shattering
"Wow-"
After the American soldier fell to the ground, he just wanted to open his mouth to scream, but he spit out a mouthful of blood.
It turned out that Wu Qianli's kick just now directly kicked him to break his ribs, and when he hit the ground, he punctured the alveoli, and blood gushed down his trachea.
"Whew! When you come to the Korean battlefield, you still want to harm us, go and die! β
Wu Jin, a soldier of the reconnaissance platoon, scolded him bitterly and stabbed him in the heart with a knife, ending his life.
"Brother, since the ammunition depot is useless, then there are no valuable targets here."
"Let's hurry up and kill it, I'm afraid the battle situation will change when it's too late."
Wu Wanli touched the captured grenade, looked at Wu Qianli and suggested.
"We have delayed some time, and now we are going to kill the estimated US troops who will just run into the next troops, and it will be an encounter, which will take more time and cause greater losses."
Wu Qianli thought for a moment and calmly analyzed the battle situation.
"Pinghe, you put an explosive bag and some grenades to the passage down, cover it with the corpses of American soldiers, remember to hide some."
"Since the American devils want to kill us quickly, let's use the same method to clean them up!"
Wu Qianli's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
When Pinghe heard this, his eyes also revealed a hint of revenge, and he immediately responded and ran away with people.
Soon, a blasting trap made of explosives packs and grenades was made, and it was also covered with the bodies of two American soldiers.
In order to be more realistic, Pinghe also made enough blood stains and some details, and if the US military did not observe carefully, they would never be able to see it.
At that moment, there was a slightly chaotic sound of footsteps above the passage of the pump room.
"Ready, the American devils are coming down, this is probably the last reserve of their command......"
Wu Qianli whispered, slowly raising the muzzle of the gun, and the murderous aura spread.
"Yes!"
The soldier of the reconnaissance platoon responded in a low voice, clenched the barrel of the gun, and his eyes revealed a fierceness like a tiger wolf......
