Tohei-ri, the front-line position of the U.S. Army

"Hello sir!"

"The soldiers of the 23rd Regiment are desperately trying to strengthen their positions, what are your instructions?"

The regiment commander Freeman saw that the division commander Biles came to inspect, and hurriedly saluted.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Major General Biles shrugged his shoulders and asked.

"The main force of the squadron on the Eastern Front has just defeated the Ninth Regiment, and it will not stop and fight all the way to Topingli."

"Now, Tohei-ri is in a semi-encirclement."

"Fortunately, General Ridgway has already sent reinforcements, and now that we have enough troops and ammunition, we don't know when they will attack."

Colonel Freeman frowned slightly and said.

"The squadron wants to capture Toping-ri in one go, open the gap in our eastern defensive line, threaten the army on the western front, and force us to retreat completely."

"Prepare the soldiers, their logistics are insufficient, and it is estimated that they will launch a swift attack after dark."

Major General Biles looked at the sun above his head and smiled slightly.

"Sir, although there are 5,000 elite Allied troops in Tohei, the squadron has mobilized the main forces of the entire Eastern Front."

"And Yokoseong has fallen, and Tohei-ri has become a prominent lonely city, once the battle is lost......

Colonel Freeman sighed, a little worried.

「Fuckyou！」

"Don't you know how the Nine Regiments of Hengcheng were annihilated?"

"General Ridgway has given a death order, Tohei-ri must be defended, and this is a matter of victory or defeat in the entire Fourth Battle!"

Major General Biles said sternly.

「yes，sir！」

Colonel Freeman bowed his head, helpless.

"The squadron is not that strong, and I think General Ridgway's magnetic tactics are extremely effective."

"As long as we succeed in defeating them in Tohei, all the young men of the Allied forces will no longer be afraid of the so-called ghost troops."

At this time, a non-angry and self-righteous official limped over and said slowly.

"Lieutenant General Ralph?"

When Biles saw Ralph, his body was slightly stunned, a little surprised.

He had heard the legend of the French general, who was one of the few hard-nosed men in the French army.

Originally, he could have eaten his old military exploits and lived the rest of his life comfortably in France.

However, after the outbreak of the Korean War, the United States formed a "United States" and sent troops to the Far East, and the general immediately applied to the French upper echelons to bring troops to join.

So, Ralph landed in Korea with a battalion of elite French foreign troops and joined the war.

It is worth mentioning that Ralph voluntarily demoted the rank of military to lieutenant colonel, just so that he could go abroad to fight.

"General Biles, I'm just a lieutenant colonel in command of a battalion now, you don't have to salute me."

"At my request, General Ridgway approved the French reinforcements to Tohei-ri, and I can finally have a good fight with the squadron."

Ralph licked his lips slightly, his blue eyes full of battle fanaticism.

"Good! With your troops stationed, the chances of victory in the battle of Tohei are a few points higher."

"Now that the squadron is approaching, what do you think are the chances of winning to defend Tohei?"

Major General Biles first complimented, then asked.

"Ten percent!"

Ralph smiled and said disdainfully.

"Ten percent?"

Colonel Freeman's eyes widened and he exclaimed in disbelief.

"The squadron has no advantage at all except for its tenacious will to fight."

"As long as the logistics and the main force of reinforcements keep up, the battle of Tohei-ri will be won!"

Ralph picked up a cigar and said confidently.

"Hahahahaha

"Colonel Freeman, I'll hand it over to Tohei

It's for you and Mr. Ralph, and we'll see you at the celebration feast after the victory!"

Biles nodded in satisfaction, and turned to the helicopter, ready to leave.

「yes，sir！」

Freeman reluctantly saluted and watched the division commander board the helicopter and fly away. ………………………………………………

1951, midnight on February 14

The Volunteer Army concentrated its superior forces and launched a fierce attack on Tohei-ri.

Ralph personally led the French battalion to the front line, taking advantage of superior firepower to repel attacks many times.

Even the notorious French army fought so fiercely, and the US military was unwilling to raise the white flag before the French, which was a great shame.

As a result, the bloodiness of Freeman and the American army was also ignited, shouting God and America one by one, desperately resisting.

Despite the rapid offensive, the Volunteer Army only captured a few positions on the periphery, and then fell into a tug-of-war.

It wasn't until the morning sun rose that countless US planes flew in with the sound of rumbling motors and began to bomb the volunteers on the periphery.

Ralph, who had fought all night, did not get tired at all, but excitedly launched a counterattack with the French battalion.

Freeman was afraid that something would happen to the French lieutenant general, so he hurriedly followed up with the main force of the American army.

The howitzers of the American army fired together, and the French battalion, under the cover of the American tanks, fought all the way out.

In the end, both sides paid heavy casualties, but Tohei-ri was still not captured.

The "Joint ***" command ordered the 28th Regiment of the U.S. Army to go to support, but it was discovered by Wu Qianli, who had already foreseen.

The 7th Regiment of the Ganggang blocked the route of the 28th Regiment of the US Army, which greatly slowed down the support of the US Army.

It wasn't until the other volunteers gradually approached that the 28th Regiment, which was secretly supported, was afraid of being surrounded, so they simply gave up reinforcements to Topingli and turned around and retreated.

Li Qiwei did not give up, and mobilized the 5th Regiment of the 1st Cavalry Division of the US Army to reinforce it.

However, the Eastern Front Command had arranged an ambush for the ambush, and the 5th Regiment of the US Army could not break through at all.

Although the U.S. troops in Tohei-ri were tenacious, reinforcements could not come in, and the defenders were dead one by one, and there were fewer and fewer living forces.

At the same time, the end of the "worship offensive" of the Volunteer Army was approaching, and if it could no longer take Topingli, it could only withdraw its troops.

Thus, the fourth campaign reached the most critical moment. …………………………………………………

In the command hall of the "Joint ***" Command

"General, Tohei-ri sent three urgent telegrams in a row."

"The offensive of the volunteers is becoming more and more ferocious, and if we don't get reinforcements, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold it."

"Tohei-ri has become the core theater of operations on the Eastern Front, and once it is lost, all our previous efforts will be in vain."

Chief of Staff Dole reminded in a low voice with a sad face.

"Hahahaha...... Don't worry, the defenders of Tohei-ri have suffered heavy losses, and the volunteers are no better."

"As long as Tohei-ri continues to be crucified on the Eastern Front for three days, it will only take three days!"

"After three days, my 'magnetic suction tactics' will be successful, and the volunteer army will definitely retreat!"

Li Qiwei played with the cigar box in his hand and said without panic.

"General, if Tohei-ri can't support it for three days, we will retreat."

"In the Battle of Changjin Lake, Major General Smith also thought that the Watergate Bridge could be defended, and the result was ......."

Chief of Staff Dole hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and reminded.

"Huh?"

Li Qiwei heard this, and a trace of annoyance flashed in his blue eyes, but he was quickly suppressed by reason.

He understood that Dole had a point, and that the previous failures of the U.S. military were largely due to the conceit of the commanders.

"You have a point, Tohei has become a strategic place to decide the outcome of the battle, and we must protect it."

"But I've just sent two main regiments to reinforce them, and they're all Zhi

The Willing Army has blocked it, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to reach it quickly."

Li Qiwei put down the humidor and said solemnly.

"General, you forgot, we still have a hole card that can be used to reinforce Toheiri without any obstacles."

The corners of Dole's chief of staff hooked his mouth and reminded.

"Well, I didn't expect to use ...... so soon."

"Order the 186th Airborne Regiment to quickly parachute into Tohei-ri, and be sure to cooperate with the defenders to hold it for three days at any cost!"

After Li Qiwei hesitated for two seconds, he immediately made a decision.

「yes，sir！」

Chief of Staff Dole immediately responded, turning to deliver orders.

Soon, a regiment of the U.S. Army parachuted into Tohei and joined the defensive operation.

The Volunteers then launched several onslaughts, paying countless casualties, but failed to open a breakthrough.

During the day, the commander of the Volunteer Army, who was in charge of the storm, had to order a retreat again. ………………………………………………

Shiji, in the command room

"Boss, a regiment of the U.S. Army has landed in Tonpingli, and our army has been unable to attack for a long time, and the battle situation is becoming more and more unfavorable......

Chief of Staff Xie looked at the battle report in his hand and sighed.

"Eh, it seems that Wu Qianli's reminder is right, and it is very likely that Tohei will not be able to stumble."

The boss rubbed his temples and said slowly.

"Wu Qianli? He foresaw the current situation?"

Chief of Staff Xie put down the battle report and said in surprise.

"Yes, he also set up a blocking position in advance to block the 28th Regiment secretly reinforced by the US army."

"Otherwise, do you think that old fox with Li Qiwei would use the airborne regiment so quickly?"

The boss smiled slightly and asked rhetorically.

"Boss, in that case, did Chisato provide a coping strategy?"

Chief of Staff Xie's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.

"Hahahaha...... Yes!"

"But that's what gives me a headache."

The boss took a sip of steaming boiled water and said slowly.

"Boss, does Chisato want to give it a go and get closer to the rear regardless of the risk?"

"This time it's different from Changjin Lake, we are at a disadvantage, but the U.S. military wants to eat us."

Chief of Staff Xie frowned, ready to object.

"No!"

"He hopes to withdraw ahead of schedule while our army still has three days of reserves!"

The boss's eyes narrowed slightly and said.

"What? Withdraw early?"

"Boss, in three days, it's not certain whether you can capture Topingli, once you conquer it, the situation will be completely opened."

"Withdraw at this time, unless...... He didn't expect us to be able to take it in the end."

Chief of Staff Xie said with some surprise.

"Lao Jie, the strategic goal of our counteroffensive is to smash the defenses of the US army and stabilize the battle line near the 38th parallel."

"Chisato's idea is not simply to withdraw troops, he has proposed a new plan."

The boss said with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"Hahahaha...... This kid is doing the duties of the regiment commander and the mind of the commander-in-chief!"

When Chief of Staff Xie heard that there was really something, he couldn't help laughing.

"A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, but I think that after the Korean War, this kid has a chance, hahaha......

"Here, look at the map."

"Chisato thinks that the main force of our army's eastern front can make a final onslaught on Toheong-ri for half a day, and then pretend that he is unable to attack and retreat in a hurry."

"Then our army will build a defensive position in the Hwacheon area, attract American troops to venture deeper, and fight a decisive battle with us here!"

The boss pointed to the map mark of "Hwacheon" and said.

"This ......"

"Chisato probably wanted to consume the advancing American troops in the first battle of Hwacheon, so that the American army as a whole was unable to attack, and finally let the fourth battle end undefeated

bundle."

"But what if the U.S. military is not fooled, but advances slowly, or even ignores Hwacheon first, and concentrates its forces to attack on the western front?"

Chief of Staff Xie calmly thought for a moment and analyzed.

"There is an eighty percent probability that Li Qiwei will attack, because as long as Hwacheon is captured, the U.S. army can directly cross the Han River and reach Seoul, which is their best and fastest means of attack."

"If they are willing to stalemate and consume, then our strategic goal will be achieved in advance, just wait for the arrival of follow-up legions and supplies, hahahahaha......

The boss said, letting out a hearty laugh.

"Wu Qianli, this kid, also used a trick."

"Boss, in that case, let's get ready."

Chief of Staff Xie nodded slightly, approved the plan, and said.

"Good!"

"Order the 27th Army and the 7th Gang Regiment to rush to the Hwacheon area, build fortifications, and prepare for blocking operations."

"Order the main forces of the Eastern Front to pretend that they are unable to attack, retreat quickly, and lure the main forces of the American Army on the Eastern Front to go deeper."

"When they kowtow to Hwacheon and break the bloodstream, they can wait for an opportunity to eat some of their pursuers."

The boss waved his hand domineeringly and gave an order.

"Yes!"

Chief of Staff Xie nodded in response, and quickly went down to convey the order. …………………………………………………

Tohei-ri

The main force of the Eastern Front of the Volunteer Army launched the last onslaught, so they feigned that the supplies were not enough, and had no choice but to retreat.

The soldiers of the French battalion and the American army looked at the retreating volunteers and erupted in thunderous cheers together.

In the battle just now, Ralph, who personally rushed to the front line to fight, enjoyed the heroic treatment, surrounded by the French and American troops.

"Guys, see, this is the squadron that has been deified by those media!"

"Now, we're holding Tohei-ri, and they're defeated at our feet!"

"But that's not enough, we're going to keep attacking, attacking!"

"Kill them all, even cross the Han River, and take back the damned Seoul!"

Ralph blushed and craned his neck, excitedly mobilizing the soldiers.

"Attack!"

"Attack!"

"Offensive ......"

The soldiers of the French battalion were the first to raise their guns and shouted.

The soldiers of the American army were also infected by the high morale, and they raised their guns and shouted.

Almost everyone fell into the frenzy of fighting, except for ...... A U.S. Army commander who was shot in the shoulder.

Freeman looked at Ralph, who looked like the head of the cult, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and his brain went blank.

"Mr. Lieutenant General Ralph, I know you are brave, but we have just finished a big battle, and the soldiers are tired, so if you rush to attack......

Freeman walked over to Ralph and reminded in a low voice.

"Captain Freeman, are you afraid?"

"Look at these brave soldiers, don't you feel guilty?"

Ralph didn't give any face, and said directly.

"Mr. Ralph, don't you feel strange that the Volunteers have retreated so suddenly?"

"I'm not afraid, but I have to take responsibility for the lives of the soldiers."

Freeman forcibly suppressed his anger and calmly reminded.

"It's okay, the soldiers of France will forge new military brilliance, so you can continue to hold on with your people."

Ralph said, and made a fist gesture with his right hand, and the French battalion immediately gathered.

"Guys, follow me!"

Ralph picked up the AS35 pistol and shouted.

Without the slightest hesitation, the fighters of the French battalion immediately picked up their guns and jumped into the military vehicle.

"Go, go, go on your adventure, damn it......

Freeman looked at the French battalion vehicles rushing out and sighed with some headache

Tone.

"Sir, why are these French soldiers so brave that they don't want to die in battle?"

"With all due respect, it seems a little different from their terrible performance in World War II."

A U.S. military officer asked, incredulously.

"Hmph, France is relying on these foreign legions to maintain some decency."

Freeman snorted coldly and said disdainfully.

"Sir, do we really ignore them?"

The U.S. officer asked, turning his head.

「***you！ I really don't want to care about these crazy people, but I can't let the French lieutenant general have an accident!"

"You follow with a tank company, and hopefully he won't bury America's armored forces."

Ralph hesitated for a moment, but finally sighed and said helplessly.

「yes，sir！」

After the American officer got down, he hurriedly took the tank company and chased after the French barracks.
