NOVEL NEXT Chapter 73
At the beginning of the Yunshan Campaign.
The 120th Division of the 42nd Army of the Volunteer Army also began to attack directly south of Wenjing, while the 119th Division was on guard in the area east of Zhurenshangdong to block the enemy troops fleeing south and coming to the north for support.
On the 24th of that day, two regiments of the 120th Division of the Volunteer Army launched a fierce attack on Wenjing.
At this time, the Nanchaoxian Army was still immersed in the joy of victory. Their marching method was also unique. They used trucks to drag artillery all the way forward, and the soldiers followed closely behind.
Seeing the soldiers of the Nanchaoxian Army marching like this, the ambushed volunteers were overjoyed.
Suddenly, at an order, the Volunteer Army launched a fierce firepower attack on the enemy.
The whole mountain was resounding with gunshots and grenades. The 107 rocket launchers and 49-type automatic rifles made the Nanchaoxian Army like a rat crossing the street. They were completely disrupted, abandoned their guns and ammunition, and evacuated quickly.
Weapons such as the 107 rocket launchers and the 49-type automatic rifles are very advanced.
At this time, the Nanchaoxian Army was like a defeated rooster, running around.
After more than an hour of fierce fighting, the 120th Division of the Volunteer Army finally annihilated 483 enemy troops by ending with a head-on beheading, and captured Lieutenant Glenn Jones, the Eagle Sauce Advisor.
At the same time, in the process of cleaning the battlefield, a total of 12 artillery pieces, 38 vehicles, and 163 guns were seized.
Soon, the 62nd Regiment of the Nanchaoxian Army was shocked when it received the news that the third battalion was ambushed, and immediately ordered other troops to return the visit.
In order to completely eliminate the enemy and achieve a comprehensive victory in this battle, at midnight on October 26, our Volunteer Army sounded the charge horn again, and under the cover of darkness, launched a fierce charge towards Wenjing. In less than three hours, our Volunteer Army occupied all of them.
During the battle of Wenjing, the Nanchaoxian Army had no resistance and was defeated everywhere.
Under the fierce gaze of our Volunteer Army, the total number of the Second Regiment of the Nanchaoxian Army was more than 3,100. When the battle started, more than 2,700 people fled.
Our army headquarters was very surprised to receive the news, and could not imagine that this was a regular army.
This was clearly an army that fled without fighting, without organization and discipline. Compared with the bravery of our Volunteer Army in taking down enemy cavalry and killing enemy generals, the Nanchaoxian Army was terrified.
When the victory of the Wenjing Battle on the western front of the Chaoxian battlefield came, the Volunteer Army Commander-in-Chief immediately ordered the Volunteer Army on the eastern front to seize the opportunity and split the South Korean and American coalition forces.
“The vulnerable clown……”
Immediately, the general issued the next battle plan: to besiege the local Nanchaoxian Army Uyghurs.
Besiege the point and attack the reinforcements.
Let other troops of the Nanchaoxian Army come to the rescue.
At this time, Major General Liu Zaixing, the commander of the Second Army of the Nanchaoxian Army, was also forced to go back to Wenjing with the 69th and 80th Regiments to grab the arms and equipment left in the local area, which were strategic materials that the Nanchaoxian Army could not discard.
Therefore, the 120th Division of the Volunteer Army, under the order of Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai, went to besiege the 7th Regiment of the Nanchaoxian Army in the Chushan Ancient Field area.
The 119th Division guarded the south of Wenjing, and the 1st Division guarded the east of Wenjing.
This is a must-go road for the reinforcements of the Nanchaoxian Army.
Our army quietly waited for the arrival of the enemy.
In fact, at the pre-war deployment meeting, it was analyzed that it was very likely that the 2nd Division of the Nanchaoxian Army would set out from Longpu East and go to Wenjing, thus forming a formation of southeast and southwest clamping machines.
The retreat route of the 7th Regiment of the 6th Division of the Nanchaoxian Army, which was invading Chushan from the north, was cut off, and the main force of the 2nd Regiment of the 6th Division of the Nanchaoxian Army was defeated. The
3rd Battalion of the 352nd Regiment of the 118th Division captured the southwest mountain of Wenjing, and the 2nd Battalion of the 353rd Regiment captured the northwest mountain of Wenjing, annihilating part of the enemy.
In the early morning of the 26th, our army was unstoppable and quickly captured Wenjing.
In the end, in the Battle of Wenjing, in the face of the absolute strength of our Volunteer Army, the 69th and 80th Regiments of the 2nd Army of Nanchaoxian were completely wiped out.
The heads of two regiments were given away in vain.
I don’t know what the commander of Nanchaoxian does for a living.
The comprehensive victory of the Battle of Wenjing was of great significance, causing the entire system organization of the Nanchaoxian Army to fall apart. At the same time, our Volunteer Army tore through the defense of the US Eighth Army, causing the US-ROK joint forces in the south to be completely exposed to the sight of our Volunteer Army.
……
At the same time, the United Nations also learned about the news of the Volunteer Army’s entry into North Korea and related intelligence.
Chief of Staff Mark Genie:”General, the rabbit’s troops are here!”
MacArthur heard this and sneered:”Haha, are you kidding me?”
“Don’t you know what kind of country the Rabbit is? It’s a big agricultural country, but its economy is not as prosperous as our Arkansas.”
Arkansas’ economy developed slowly before World War II. It was mainly agricultural and produced cotton. By the end of the 1960s, the main crops were soybeans, poultry, cotton and rice. The rice production ranked first in the country, with an annual output of 3 million tons, accounting for one-third of the country.
This is still the poorest state in the United States.
The economy of one state in the United States is higher than the income of one country in the Rabbit.
What can they use to fight?
MacArthur:”For thousands of years, the Rabbit has only been bullied, and has never been seen bullying others!”
“The Opium War, the War of Aggression against China… Were they not disastrous defeats? The whole country had been fighting for more than ten years, what else could it fight with?”
“Oh, by the way, I almost forgot: a country that can even bully an island country, so what if the rabbit comes?”
Full of disdain.
Mark Genie handed a piece of intelligence to MacArthur, who opened the file, which contained some photos.
The photos showed some scattered volunteer soldiers.
After looking at the photos, MacArthur still did not pay attention:”Mark, don’t bluff, there are only about 30,000 to 40,000 people here, a few scattered soldiers and brave men, who can’t cause any waves!”
Mark Genie:”General, I don’t think so, I think the rabbit has made up its mind to intervene in the peninsula war on a large scale!”
“General, I think the rabbit is a worthy opponent.”
“Falk……”MacArthur was angry:”You think, you think……”
“Is a Rabbit, which has been established for less than a year, so terrible? ?”
“They are now in a state of disrepair, with weak national strength, people unable to even get enough food, and no complete industrial and military systems. In addition, there are constant harassment from the Guo Party in the south, and bandits and pirates in the northwest and Xizang have not been eliminated. Do you think such a country will intervene in the Peninsula War on a large scale?”
MacArthur laughed like a pig:”This is the funniest joke I have ever heard.……”
Mark Genie:”But Nanchaoxian discovered the enemy near Yunshan and Wenjing… At first, Nanchaoxian thought it was the People’s Army, but after fighting, he found that the enemy had fierce attack firepower and strong combat effectiveness, and also had many weapons he had never seen before.”
“Nan Chaoxian’s Second Army’s two regiments and the Second Division were annihilated… General, the current situation is worse than we imagined.……”
“I believe you know the fighting power of the South Chaoxian Army better than I do… In my opinion, they are just fabricating facts to find excuses for themselves, hoping that we will occupy Pyongyang as soon as possible and push our troops to the Yalu River to completely eliminate the North Chaoxian People’s Army for them.……”
Mark Genie thought it made sense, so he said,”General, I hope you still pay attention to this matter… In my opinion, the rabbit’s army has at least one division!”
“Haha?” MacArthur laughed mercilessly:”I have just said that they are just here for show… They can’t just shout slogans in diplomatic speeches!”
“If they don’t send some troops, what can their diplomats use to fool people? ?”
“Even if they come, it won’t change our strategy of pushing the war to the Yalu River. If they don’t come, they won’t be able to stop us.……”
“Mark, I want to say something to you. As a good commander, we must trust our intuition and not be troubled by intelligence. Doing so will only make you more hesitant and timid… and affect your decision-making.……”
“If I had believed you at the beginning, there would not have been the success of the subsequent Incheon landing.”
As we all know, Incheon is not suitable for large-scale landings.
But MacArthur, against all odds, chose Incheon as the landing site, which was actually a gamble.
It is obviously difficult to land here. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Even if the beach landing is successful, whether it is possible to occupy the beachhead and open up the situation is another matter.
In addition, Incheon is not a good landing point in the eyes of senior American military officers.
From the perspective of geography, topography and tides, it is very unsuitable for landing operations, but the United Nations forces chose this place.
So in the eyes of many American troops, the Incheon landing is a complete gamble. If you win the gamble, it is perfect, but if you lose the gamble, the result is unpredictable. As a result, due to the sudden appearance of the US military, the People’s Army was attacked from both sides and was forced to retreat.[]
Then the United Nations and the South Korean army began to counterattack, and the situation on the peninsula suddenly changed, making a 180-degree turn.
Later, the commander-in-chief of the”United Nations” Ridgway said:”Landing in Incheon is a gamble of one to five thousand.”
Bradley, the five-star general who had fought all the way from Normandy to Berlin, also thought that this was a very risky plan, and if he was not careful, he might lose everything.
Judging from the situation at the time, the People’s Army was unstoppable all the way, and the battle line was too long. The South Chaoxian National Defense Army and the US Army were forced to retreat to Busan, and the Chaoxian People’s Army focused its main energy on Busan.
After all, in the eyes of the North Chaoxian, after fighting Busan, it was basically not far from complete victory.
MacArthur saw this point, so he inspected Incheon very early.
If you can land in Incheon, it will be a huge blow to the supply of the People’s Army, and it is likely to cut off the opponent’s supply line and give a fatal blow to the army besieging Busan in the south.
On the surface, Incheon does have this or that problem, and it is not the best landing point.
But MacArthur valued the strategic value more.
Sure enough, the UN forces landed in Incheon. Relying on powerful firepower, the United States and Britain quickly recaptured Seoul. Now, the People’s Army was directly cut in two, and the retreat was completely cut off.
So, MacArthur won the bet.
This also became his capital of pride.
MacArthur:”Now our first task is to end the battle before Christmas and let our soldiers go home for Christmas… This is the top priority!” MacArthur
‘s goal is not far away. Now, the US military has crossed the 38th parallel, and the front-line troops are only a few dozen kilometers away from the Yalu River.
As long as all the North Chaoxian People’s Army is killed, the problem of the peninsula can be completely solved.
Garrisoning the Yalu River, as for whether to fight or not, it depends on MacArthur’s ambition.
Mark Geni:”It is precisely because the battle must be ended on Christmas Eve, so we must be more cautious… Otherwise, let’s ask General Walker!”
“Whatever!”MacArthur looked indifferent.
The call was quickly connected.
“Hello, Admiral Walker, this is the Joint Forces Headquarters. What’s the situation in Yunshan now?”
Walker:”I have received a call for help from the Second Division of the friendly forces, and have now sent the First Division of the US Cavalry to check. Whether it is the Rabbit soldiers or the People’s Army… This time, I want to completely eliminate the enemy forces near Yunshan.……”
“”Thank you for your hard work, General Walker!” Upon learning that the 1st
Cavalry Division of the United States was going to the battle personally, Mark Jeni finally let go of his worries.
The 8th Regiment of the 1st Cavalry Division of the United States is the ace of the aces of the US military.
This unit can be regarded as the ace army with the longest history in the US military.
It can be traced back to the American Revolutionary War and was founded by Washington, the father of the United States, so it is also known as the”Division of the Founding Fathers of the United States”.
The 1st Cavalry Division of the US Army participated in the First and Second World Wars, experienced hundreds of battles, and made outstanding contributions.
On the battlefield, it always appeared as a”pioneer”.
After 160 years of battlefield turmoil, it has never been defeated, so it has always enjoyed the reputation of”the ever-victorious division”.
Although it has been reorganized into a heavy mechanized cavalry division, it has always retained and used the number of”Cavalry Division”.
Each of its soldiers wears an armband with a horse head pattern, which shows their uniqueness and supreme honor.
?When MacArthur learned that the 1st Cavalry Division of the United States had been dispatched, he rolled his eyes and said,”To deal with a few small soldiers, we need to dispatch the 1st Cavalry Division of the United States. This Walker thinks too highly of the People’s Army!”
At this time, MacArthur did not know that 300,000 Chinese volunteers had quietly entered the peninsula, and they were carrying the latest weapons and equipment.
Soon, he would pay a heavy price for his arrogance and ignorance.
