After receiving the telegram from Major General Brody, Colonel Harris angrily scolded: "Brody, this bastard, he must have done it on purpose." ”

A U.S. military staff officer next to him said, "Try your luck? Isn't that what you told them before? ”

Colonel Harris glared at the guy and said angrily, "Do you mean that we are to blame?" ”

The U.S. military staff officer hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, I definitely didn't mean that." ”

Colonel Harris didn't bother to care about this, and shouted angrily: "It's useless to count on them now, we can only break out on our own." ”

"Keep attacking me, and make sure you get me back on the third hole."

“yes sir!”

An American officer next to him hurriedly answered, turned around and went to deliver the order.

Colonel Harris also understood that now they had to rely on themselves if they wanted to break out.

Although the previous attacks had failed, Colonel Harris did not intend to give up.

Under the orders of Colonel Harris, the American army once again gathered its forces and launched a fierce attack on the volunteers in the area of Samdong-ri.

A large number of the main force of the American army screamed and rushed towards the blocking position in front of them.

Wu Qianli hid behind a big rock, looked at the enemy who was gradually approaching, and said with a serious face: "Everyone, concentrate all your firepower for me, hit them hard, and beat them down for me." ”

"Da Da Da Da~!"

Dense gunshots rang out continuously, and strings of blazing bullets rained down towards the foreign devils.

"Puff~!"

The bullet hit the American soldier's body with a muffled sound and splashed patches of blood mist.

The terrible screams continued to sound, and I saw the American devils who rushed up immediately fall to the ground in pieces.

Under the suppression of the powerful fire of the Gang 7th Regiment, the attacking enemy suffered heavy casualties, and was soon suppressed again.

After a fierce battle, the American attack was again repulsed.

Wu Qianli and they were not idle, but used all the time to start digging the tunnel.

Because he knew very well that now the main force could only form an encirclement of the US 65th Regiment at most, and it was impossible to eat this enemy before dawn.

And once it is after dawn, the planes of the United Nations forces will definitely launch a new round of attacks, and the artillery fire will be even more fierce at that time.

So now it is necessary to use all available time to dig some tunnels to prevent massive bombing by enemy planes during the day.

Wu Qianli instructed: "Comrades, work harder to dig the tunnel deeper." ”

"And here, you have to turn around and block up a few layers of sandbags and stone walls, otherwise the bullets will come in."

"Yes!"

The soldiers of the Seventh Regiment responded with a bang.

While Yu Congrong was doing his work, he asked Wu Qianli: "Commander, what's the situation now?" The main force should be coming up soon, right? ”

Wu Qianli shook his head and said: "I'm not sure about the specifics, but I heard that the movement is getting closer and closer, and it should be the main force of the first regiment of the attack, and all of them have rushed to support us." ”

Yu Congrong grinned and said, "Okay! Grandma's, this beautiful 65th regiment can't run. ”

Wu Qianli glanced up at the distance and said, "Don't worry, they will definitely not be able to run this time." ”

……

Volunteer Army Command.

The boss walked quickly to the front of the sand table and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Chief of Staff Xie pointed to the sand table and said: "The US 65th Regiment was blocked by us in the vicinity of Sandongli, and the follow-up troops are speeding up and rushing over, and they have gradually formed an encirclement of this enemy. ”

The boss said excitedly: "Well done, concentrate my forces for me, and strive to kill this American 65th Regiment for me." ”

"Yes!"

Chief of Staff Xie hurriedly responded, and then said: "It's just that we have been fighting for so long, the troops are exhausted, and there is a shortage of ammunition supplies. ”

"If we continue to fight, we will not be able to guarantee logistics."

The boss sighed helplessly and said, "Logistics is still our biggest problem, how is Lao Hong's logistics headquarters prepared?" ”

Chief of Staff Xie said: "It has already been prepared, but this logistics command has just been established, and it cannot solve our current predicament yet." ”

The boss stared at the sand table and said with a serious face: "This Mei 65 regiment is already the meat of our mouths, we must eat them no matter what." ”

Chief of Staff Xie said: "We will definitely go all out, but this enemy is the US army, they are surrounded, and they may be surrounded and annihilated at any time, so the enemy will definitely not stand idly by." ”

"I guess they must be sending troops to support in an attempt to rescue this US 65th regiment."

"So if you want to kill them, it's tantamount to pulling teeth out of the mouth of a tiger, and I'm afraid this battle will not be easy to fight."

The boss pondered for a moment and said, "I know what you mean, there is less and less time left for us. ”

"Tonight, we can launch an offensive and concentrate all our efforts on attacking this US 65th Regiment, trying to defeat and destroy them."

"But we only have one day, and after one day, whether we succeed or fail, we must stop the offensive and retreat to safety."

"And tonight, in addition to launching a fierce attack on the US 65th Regiment, the upward offensive of the rest of the parties can be suspended according to the actual situation, or the offensive can be completely stopped and prepared to retreat."

"We have to build a solid line of defense, so we can only temporarily retreat, choose a suitable place, block the enemy's counterattack, and establish a solid line of defense."

Chief of Staff Xie nodded and said, "Judging from the current situation, it can only be like this first." ”

That night, with the cooperation of the 7th Regiment, the main force quickly formed an encirclement of the 65th Regiment of the United States.

After several failed breakouts, Colonel Harris finally had to wait until after dawn to break out.

After all, after dawn, they can get more support.

But Colonel Harris never dreamed that it was he who delayed these hours, and finally made them lose their last hope of escape.

The Volunteer Army has surrounded the US 65th Regiment to death, and with the support of the main force, although the US troops stormed Sandongli, they have never been able to conquer Sandongli.

Even the last path was completely blocked, and the main force carefully sealed all the ways out of the US 65th Regiment, no matter how the enemy struggled to break through, it was useless.

At this time, Colonel Harris was finally in a hurry, and he did not want to follow in the footsteps of Camp Gloucester.

Colonel Harris sent telegrams to the United Nations Command asking for help, begging the command to find a way to rescue them.

Van Vliet reported the situation to Li Qiwei, and Li Qiwei couldn't help frowning and said: "In this way, it is difficult for the US 65 Regiment to break through?" ”

Van Vliet nodded and said, "They will definitely not be able to break through on their own, unless they can have timely support." ”

"We have mobilized some of the troops and started to support, and the British 29th Brigade ostensibly promised to rescue, but they did not take any substantive action at all."

Li Qiwei said: "This is also understandable, who let Harris offend them before, not to mention that the British 29th Brigade did suffer a lot of losses in the previous battles, and Brody was also afraid of them, so he didn't dare to take risks." ”

Ridgway is not a fool either, and he saw through Brody at once.

Van Vliet said: "But as long as the 65th Regiment can hold out a little longer, everything will still have a turning point." ”

"We have already begun to arrange a counteroffensive against the enemy, as long as they hold out for a while longer, then we may take the opportunity to annihilate the Chinese army besieging the 65th Regiment."

"You should know that these Chinese troops are also extremely cunning, and I am now worried that if they flee too quickly, we may not be able to annihilate them."

"And now they are definitely not willing to give up the fat in their mouths, and they will definitely attack the 65th regiment with all their might, so our opportunity has come."

"As long as we can seize this opportunity, it is possible to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate this group of enemies besieging the 65th Regiment."

Li Qiwei nodded and said, "Your idea is good, it can even be said to be a big gamble, but can they withstand it on Harris's side?" ”

Van Vliet said with a serious face: "If you can't stand it, you have to top it, they have no other choice." ”

Li Qiwei said: "Then give them a death order, no matter what, you must defend it for me to resist the attack of the Chinese army." ”

The order reached Harris's headquarters, and by this time, Colonel Harris was already anxious like an ant on a hot pot.

After reading the telegram, Colonel Harris was even more dumbfounded.

"Is this for us to hold on and wait for help?"

The staff officer next to him explained: "The meaning of the headquarters is this, we can't break through, they are mobilizing troops to prepare to rescue us." ”

"For the time being, we can only stand by and wait for help."

"Fack~!"

Colonel Harris couldn't help but scold: "But the question is, I don't know when these rescues will arrive?" Are we just going to keep waiting? ”

"After dark, the Chinese army will definitely attack, and will we be able to withstand the enemy's attack when the time comes?"

"Once our defenses are broken by the enemy, then we are all finished."

Colonel Harris, an old slippery head, really doesn't feel at ease about putting his fate in the hands of others, with this guy's personality, only the fate in his own hands can be called his own.

Give it to others, and he doesn't trust anyone.

But now that they have fought from night to day, they have tried all the methods they should have used, but they have never been able to break out, so they can only be trapped here now.

Colonel Harris is also in a dilemma now, and he doesn't know what to do.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Our fate must be in our own hands. ”

"Keep breaking through! Unless we really can't break through, it's not dark yet, and we still have a chance. ”

"Immediately call in air support, continue to organize forces, and launch a new round of offensive."

“yes sir!”

Under the orders of Colonel Harris, the U.S. forces again launched a fierce attack on our blocking position.

A large number of American soldiers rushed towards the hillside with great momentum.

However, they were greeted by a blazing rain of bullets.

Wu Qianli usually hid in the tunnel, continued to dig, improve the tunnel, as long as the infantry of the US army dared to attack, they rushed to the position, and beat these dogs fiercely.

Because of Wu Qianli and the system, the Seventh Regiment has never lacked weapons and ammunition.

The U.S. troops were simply unable to capture the positions of the Seventh Regiment, and these U.S. troops continued to charge.

They fought until the evening, suffering heavy casualties, but they were never able to break through our defensive line.

The last round of offense finally made Harris give up completely.

He knew that he really couldn't break out, so he could only order the troops to defend on the spot.

It was getting dark.

Wu Qianli hid in the tunnel, his brows furrowed deeply, and his face was not good-looking, not only because of the lack of rest after a long battle.

In addition, the fighting during this period also caused a lot of casualties to the troops.

The U.S. troops continued to attack fiercely, and their firepower was also quite fierce, and although they occupied favorable terrain, casualties were inevitable.

Watching his comrades-in-arms fall in front of his eyes one by one, even if he is really hard-hearted, it is impossible to be indifferent.

At this time, Mei Sheng came over and said to Wu Qianli: "Regiment commander, I have just received instructions that after dark, all troops will launch a general attack and strive to kill this US 65th Regiment as soon as possible." ”

"However, in view of our continuous fighting, Shiji instructed us to stay in our positions to prevent the American army from breaking through."

Yu Congrong on the side suddenly raised his head, looked at Wu Qianli and said, "Regiment leader!" What does the commissar mean, we are not involved in this offensive anymore? ”

Mei Sheng glanced at Wu Qianli and replied first: "No way, this is the instruction of the superiors." ”

Wu Qianli also gritted his teeth at this time and said, "If we hadn't blocked the 65th regiment, would they have a chance to kill these dogs?" ”

"After fighting for so long, we have killed so many soldiers, and we are about to win, and we are about to harvest the fruits, so we are not allowed to participate in the attack? Are they embarrassed? ”

Mei Sheng glanced at Wu Qianli, sighed and said: "Regiment Commander, Lao Yu, I don't want to do this either, but Zhisi feels sorry for the casualties of our Seventh Regiment, so he ...... like this."

Yu Congrong grabbed the butt of Browning's rifle and said, "I know, I just want to kill a few more American devils to avenge my dead comrades." ”

Wu Qianli was silent for a few seconds before saying, "That's it! ”

"We are staying here to prevent the US military from breaking out."

"Only by killing this US 65th regiment can it be regarded as avenging the soldiers, otherwise, they will really die in vain."

After a pause for a few seconds, Wu Qianli added: "With the current situation, we must kill this US 65th Regiment as soon as possible, once it is delayed for too long, it will be very unfavorable to us." ”

At this time, Wu Wanli sat next to Wu Qianli and asked, "Brother, do you think we can kill the US 65 Regiment overnight?" ”

Wu Qianli's eyes were firm, and he said categorically: "I must be able to!" (End of chapter)
