Joint *** Command

"General, emergency call from the front!"

"After the squadron in the area of Toping-ri was evacuated, Lieutenant General Ralph led the French battalion and our tank company to the Hwacheon area."

"But I didn't expect that in the middle of the night, I was suddenly ambushed by the squadron, and the whole army was annihilated, and General Ralph was shot and killed!"

The chief of staff of Dole took the telegram and said with a little panic.

「Shit！」

"This old bastard, without my orders, actually went deep into the Hwacheon region and was wiped out!?"

Li Qi paused for two seconds, then slapped the table angrily and roared loudly.

"The general is angry."

"A French army that participated in the Korean War was annihilated by the formation, and a lieutenant general was also actrained......

"This could cause discontent in France, and even the media in the free world would not report very well."

Chief of Staff Dole sighed and reminded.

In terms of losses alone, they are not broken.

But the French battalion and Ralph are in a special situation after all, which is tantamount to trampling on the face of France and may cause a diplomatic incident.

"I'll telegraph Mr. President to explain the situation, it's entirely Ralph's responsibility to take the initiative, it's none of our business."

"And, as long as you win this battle, it's nothing."

Li Qiwei said, waved his hand, and motioned to return to the battle situation to discuss.

"Okay."

"General, judging from this battle, the rout of the squadron is not quite right."

"As if they had been prepared, they occupied the most favorable terrain and fought a quick annihilation battle with powerful firepower."

Chief of Staff Dole said, handing a report of the battle to Ridgway.

"Aren't they logistically difficult? How could it be possible to suppress the firepower of the French battalion and tank company?"

Li Qiwei looked at the battle report, his brows furrowed to kill flies.

"According to reconnaissance and intelligence, the opponent faced by the French battalion was the Gang 7th Regiment, and the regiment commander led by it was named Wu Qianli."

"This unit has repeatedly performed feats in Changjin Lake, captured Major General Smith, broke into Xiajieyu, and blew up the Watergate Bridge, all of which are their masterpieces."

"They are equipped with all-American equipment, and their firepower is even more powerful than ours, not to mention the French battalion."

Chief of Staff Dole said with some fear.

"Where is this force?"

Li Qiwei looked at the strategic map and asked.

"The gateway to the Hwacheon region, the most dangerous 331 highlands."

"They joined forces with the Chinese 27th Army to garrison Hwacheon, blocking our way eastward to Seoul."

Chief of Staff Dole pointed to the map and said slowly.

"Hmph, then let this Chinese army disappear as a formation, and it can be regarded as an explanation to the French side."

Li Qiwei's eyes revealed a hint of murderous aura and said.

"General, I know you want to advance the battle as soon as possible, but their retreat is too strange."

"We might as well scout for a while longer, and wait until they really run out of ammunition......

Chief of Staff Dole was a little worried in his heart, and hurriedly reminded.

"Needless to say, even if the squadron is prepared, we can't stop because of this."

"Order all the troops on the Eastern Front to continue the pursuit and press, push the battle line steadily over, and don't give them a chance to breathe."

"The 5th Regiment of the 1st Telegraph Cavalry Division, stormed the 331 Heights, opened the gap in the Hwacheon defense, and annihilated the 7th Regiment!"

"Telegraph the 2nd Marine Division, quickly reinforce the 5th Regiment, launch an attack on the Hwacheon area, strive to take Hwacheon as soon as possible, and threaten Seoul!"

Li Qiwei slapped the table and shouted.

「yes，sir。」

Chief of Staff Dole was a little helpless and had to go down to convey the order. ………………………………………………

The 5th Regiment of the 1st U.S. Cavalry Division was stationed, a temporary meeting place

"Report to the sir, command is in an emergency!"

A U.S. non-commissioned officer said, handed over the telegram, and walked out quickly.

"The general was very angry at the destruction of the French battalion, and ordered us to immediately storm Heights 331 and annihilate the squadron there."

"Guys, we may have to hurry up, the 2nd Marine Division is already on its way, and we'd better get here before they arrive."

After reading it, Colonel Corom Bates threw the telegram away and said to the officers present.

"General, this unit can eat the French battalion in a short time, and its combat effectiveness should not be underestimated."

"If we are too eager, we may suffer heavy casualties."

Seeing that no one spoke, a US military officer hurriedly reminded him.

"Don't worry, the general has mobilized a large number of bombers and is ready to bomb the 331 heights indiscriminately."

"Coupled with our artillery fire, it will be easy to take the high ground, so there is no need to say more."

"On my order, all units will rest for two hours at the end, and after two hours, they will attack immediately!"

Corom Bates looked at his watch and ordered without question.

「yes，sir！」 ………………………………………………

Just the headquarters of the Seventh Regiment

"Regiment commander, I figured it out, the troops on the opposite side are the 5th Regiment of the 1st Cavalry Division of the US Army, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the attack will be launched."

Pinghe rubbed his hands together and reported.

"Riding a division? It seems to be the ace unit of the U.S. military."

"I heard from the comrades of the Western Front that they were very well-equipped and had extremely high combat qualities, and they suffered a lot of losses when they fought each other."

Lei Gong took a puff of dry tobacco pouch and said recalling.

"Grandma's, what about the trump card, do we still have fewer trump cards?"

"No matter how elite they are, Lao Tzu dares to break them all!"

Yu Congrong snorted coldly and said very domineeringly.

"That's it, I wish the U.S. military would send more ace elites and send me more combat exploits."

Wu Wanli grinned and agreed.

"Coming so fast, a few days earlier than history, it seems that the process is already changing......

Wu Qianli didn't get excited with everyone, but silently calculated in his heart.

"Ding—"

"Detect the current battlefield situation and trigger the hidden mission: hold Heights 331 and repel the attack of the American army."

"After completing the mission, you will receive a hidden treasure chest reward."

"Do you accept the assignment?"

The cold system prompt suddenly sounded, and Wu Qianli's eyes couldn't help but light up after hearing it, and he accepted it without hesitation.

"Regiment Commander, Shiji sent a telegram, let's get ready, the American troops on the Eastern Front have pressed over on all fronts, and Heights 331 may encounter a very fierce attack."

Mei Sheng handed the telegram to Wu Qianli and said.

"It's good to come!"

"Yu Congrong, Lei Gong, you lead people to strengthen the defensive position, dig more anti-slope fortifications and cat's ear holes, and connect the trenches."

"Pinghe, release the most elite reconnaissance soldiers, pay attention to the movements of the US military, and report immediately if there is a situation."

"Others, hurry up and eat to replenish your strength, and be ready to fight at any time."

Wu Qianli's eyes flashed with battle intent, and he quickly ordered.

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison, and they all went down to prepare.
