Chapter 471 Lost Contact with Corps

Instructor Shao paused slightly, then sighed: "If this is the case, then it will be troublesome."

"No."

Sitting on the bed next to Instructor Shao, Xia Yuan was worried, but there was nothing he could do.It is obviously unrealistic for me to persuade myself as a company commander to disobey orders and retreat.

He took off his hat and lay on the bed, covered his face with the hat, and said, "Instructor, let's take a rest first. After finally taking a rest, take the time to rest quickly and get enough energy to deal with what may happen next."

Instructor Shao thought for a while and said, "I'll finish the clothes."

"okay."

Xia Yuan responded, touched the bed, and his whole body was completely relaxed. The sleepiness was like a tide, submerging his whole body, and he fell asleep within a second of touching the bed.

Instructor Shao yawned, rubbed the tears from his eyes, pinched the needle and thread to mend the clothes, sewed, tilted his head, and fell asleep while sitting.

They are so tired.

Since the counterattack in the second stage, I haven't had a good rest.

Teacher refers to.

After receiving the order from the military department, Division Commander Zheng immediately ordered the [-]th Regiment to send a battalion of troops to rescue the siege, and then asked Deputy Division Commander Duan and Chief of Staff Wang to start discussing the next plan.

On the map, Master Zheng removed the position mark of the 63th Division's right-wing friend and neighbor belonging to the 63th Division, and then inserted the logo of the fake 63th Division on it. The division has already retreated, and we have to prepare for the worst, that is, the 63rd Army has retreated. At present, the [-]rd Army has withdrawn or not, and the commander is getting in touch with the [-]rd Army. If there is no withdrawal, there is still room for maneuver. In the position of the Eighth and Ninth Division, we can contact the other troops of the [-]rd Army and double-team the left and right sides to eat up this Korean army."

After a pause, he said: "I'm afraid that the 63rd Army will be completely withdrawn. On the south bank of the Han River, only our [-]th Division will be left."

Deputy Division Commander Duan scolded: "If you withdraw, you will withdraw. Why don't you tell us that this group of fucking Han troops has occupied the position of the [-]th Division without saying a word. No wonder the people from the [-]th Regiment Said that they found a wave of foreign devils behind us, and the feeling is that after the retreat of the [-]th Division, they were given a chance."

"Old Duan, you can't say that. The [-]th Division is also going to complete the order to go up and deploy. They don't care to tell us about the time."

Master Zheng is still thinking about the [-]th Division at this time.

"Then they should at least send someone over to talk about it. If they don't say anything, they will withdraw without saying a word."

Deputy Teacher Duan was still feeling uncomfortable and mumbling.

Mr. Zheng and Deputy Mr. Duan have not been working together for a day or two, let alone a year or two. He knows this guy well. Seeing him muttering, he smiled and stopped talking. The teacher is still playing petty temper.

"Stop whining, we have to readjust the deployment of the [-]th and [-]th regiments. Although the [-]th division has withdrawn, the positions they left behind have not been occupied by the pseudo-[-]th division. We must hurry up. The more ferocious the enemy's offensive, the more difficult it will be for us."

Deputy Commander Duan, Chief of Staff Wang, and Commander Zheng readjusted the deployment of the [-]th Regiment and the [-]th Regiment on the south bank of the Han River. Originally, the proportion of troops and defensive positions was insufficient, but now they were forced to The width of the defense has been increased on the front.

Deputy Commander Duan said to Commander Zheng with a sad face: "Master, the horizontal direction is already so wide, and the troops are exhausted and lack food and ammunition. I'm afraid I'm not sure."

The situation facing the [-]th Division is particularly bad now, especially when the left and right wings are exposed. If there is a mistake in the adjustment and deployment, the consequences will be disastrous, and it will become a historical sinner.

Deputy Commander Duan is not afraid of becoming a historical sinner. What he is afraid of is that his adjustment and deployment mistakes will cause more volunteer soldiers to bleed and die.

Deputy Teacher Duan, who has always acted boldly, has also become a little cautious.

Master Zheng patted him on the shoulder. He also knew how much pressure his brother was under, and comforted him: "Relax and do it boldly. There are so many people waiting."

Deputy Commander Duan took a deep breath, turned to look at Chief of Staff Wang, and said, "Old Wang, do you have any good ideas?"

Chief of Staff Wang shook his head, fumbled for a cigarette from his arms, and lit it. The slowly burning cigarette could not dispel the entangled thoughts in his mind, and he couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time.

"The battle line is so wide, it's not enough to line up the [-]th Regiment and the [-]th Regiment."

When Deputy Teacher Duan heard this, a flash of light came to his mind, and he said, "Let's line up the cards! Then let the [-]th and [-]th regiments line up!"

Line up, which means that the [-]th Regiment and the [-]th Regiment are the last line of defense. Once the enemy breaks through this line of defense, then the rear will be the division finger, and the Han River will be behind.

They have no way out.

Chief of Staff Wang and a group of government officials are still hesitating. It is too risky to do so.

Master Zheng took out a half pack of cigarettes from his breast pocket, took out one and lit it, he pulled Deputy Commander Duan, and at the same time held up a half pack of cigarettes, signaling Chief of Staff Wang and Director Wu to let everyone take a cigarette.Deputy Teacher Duan also took out one and lit it.Chief of Staff Wang had one in his mouth, and put it on his ear. Director Wu was not so addicted to cigarettes, and he didn’t move. Dididi' made a sound of code.

Chi.

Master Zheng lit a match, and the flames burned quickly. He lit the cigarette in his hand, put it in his mouth and smoked half of it, squinted his eyes and thought for a while, "Don't hesitate, now is not the time for us to choose, but the time of the battlefield. We have no choice but to follow Deputy Division Commander Duan's plan, close the defense line, abandon the original position, and line up the two regiments!"

Deputy Commander Duan no longer hesitated, nodded to Commander Zheng, and immediately contacted the commanders of the [-]th Regiment and the [-]th Regiment. These two regiments will line up to guard the main high ground and prevent the enemy from invading the north!

Just as Deputy Division Commander Duan picked up the hand-cranked phone and gave orders to the two regiments, a scout ran into the division headquarters and shouted out of breath, "Report."

Master Zheng flicked the ashes of the cigarette in his hand and said, "Don't worry, speak slowly."

The scout didn't stop for a moment, and ran all the way to the division headquarters. Tired enough, he patted his chest with his hand and said, "The [-]th Division in the Dalongshan area has already started to evacuate!"

Master Zheng paused slightly and took a deep breath. He immediately realized that his [-]th Division was now truly a lone army, and all the pressure came to him in an instant.In order not to let other people see his emotions, he smoked a cigarette to calm himself down, and said to the investigator:
"You have worked hard, go down and rest first."

"Yes!"

The investigators saluted all the cadres pointed out by the teacher, and then quickly retreated.

Commander Zheng was smoking a cigarette, staring at the logo of the [-]th Division on the map. Around this logo, there were densely packed enemy logos, including those of the U.S. Army and the Korean Army. The total strength of these logos has increased to more than ten Ten thousand people, the pressure on the [-]th Division suddenly increased.

Surrounded by the enemy on three sides, it will take three to five days to hold on. Can the [-]th and [-]th regiments lined up in a row withstand the enemy's ferocious attack?

At this time, the frontline was raging with flames, and shells rained down on the positions of our defenders. The positions seemed to be torn apart by shells. Covering the sky and the sun, the ears of the volunteer soldiers in the position were buzzing, the smoke blocking the sky and the sun blocked their sight, and the earth was constantly roaring, like the end of the world.

The artillery fire stopped roaring, and the US tanks came up again.

The [-]rd Battalion and [-]nd Company of the [-]th Regiment struggled to resist the enemy. The enemy’s artillery fire started early in the morning and lasted for half an hour. There was no longer a single standing tree on the top of the mountain. Stones crushed into powder, densely packed with craters, large and small, one after another, the raging fire of napalm covered the top of the mountain.

The ashen-faced and ragged volunteer soldiers were like nails, stuck in the position without moving. Under the raging fire of napalm bombs, they repelled the enemy's seven charges, and suffered heavy casualties like themselves. On the scorched earth of the position.

Even more deadly was the 20nd Battalion of the [-]th Regiment. What they were facing was the fierce attack of a whole regiment of the US Army. Under artillery fire, bombing, and raging fire, one battalion withstood the ferocious attack of a regiment and repelled the enemy eight times. .Six companies and three platoons stood firm for six hours, destroyed more than [-] tanks, and formed an indestructible line of defense with flesh and blood. The last soldier left in the platoon was still standing on the ground and died with the enemy. The whole platoon stood firm Six hours, a heroic sacrifice.

The most tragic battle was undoubtedly the rear position of the [-]th Division. The [-]st Battalion and [-]rd Company of the [-]th Regiment fought until they ran out of ammunition and food, and could not get out a single bullet. The company commander, instructor, platoon leader, and squad leader sacrificed In the end, there were only a dozen soldiers left. They smashed with stones, stabbed with bayonets, and bit with teeth, and they repelled a wave of enemy attacks. The enemies like locusts once again swarmed to charge their positions. More than a dozen soldiers gathered Form a group, facing the locust-like enemy, there is no timidity on their faces, only supreme bravery.

Shouting 'Long Live the Motherland', they charged at the enemy with bayonets in hand and never returned.

The whole company was killed.

The artillery battalion was breached by the U.S. Army. Volunteer soldiers could only fire at the U.S. tanks at a distance of tens of meters, until the position was completely captured by the enemy. They destroyed all the artillery and left the last shell for themselves. .

On this day, tragic battles continued to be staged, and countless heroes and martyrs were born. They defended the defense line of the [-]th Division with their flesh and blood.

At the most critical, dangerous, and tragic moment of the battle, all the commanders and fighters of the [-]th Division had firm beliefs and did not have the slightest political wavering.

At [-] o'clock in the afternoon, the [-]th Army's military headquarters issued another mission to the [-]th Division, and the mission was to 'defend on the spot'.

Right-wing friend No. 60 Third Army did not make any notification first, and suddenly retreated, completely exposing the right wing of the 63th Division. attack.At that time, the No.60 Army and even the Third Corps did not report the enemy's large-scale counterattack, and still gave the [-]th Division an order to defend on the spot.

The fierce battle lasted for a day, and as night fell, the enemy's offensive would become even more ferocious.

The horizon cuts the sun into a semicircle, and the sunlight is much less than that of the daytime, and it is a bit more dim and yellow.During the whole day, the diffuse gunpowder smoke turned the whole sky into a sulfur color, and every breath of air smelled like gunpowder.

Such an environment is nothing special to all the officers and soldiers of the [-]th Division who are still fighting on the front line.

In the division's finger, a lot of cigarette butts fell on the ground under Mr. Zheng's feet. He had been standing in front of the map for several hours, and all the neighboring troops around him were retreating rapidly. Only the [-]th Division followed the order of their superiors and stayed put Action, resolutely implement the orders issued by superiors.

After tonight, they will completely give up their last chance of survival.

The radio station in the headquarters is still working, and the sound of Morse code 'tick tick' is not loud, but hits every corner of the room. The operator Xiaoyi's face is covered with sweat beads, and he doesn't even care to wipe it off. Fiddled with the radio with both hands, adjusted a few buttons, picked up the earphone again and stuck it tightly to his ears, not letting go of any sound of radio waves, he had already dialed the gain signal of the radio to the maximum.

After a while, there was still no sound, it was completely silent.

For the [-]th Division, the emergency situation this time was absolutely worse.

Xiao Yi kept fiddling with the radio, the sweat on her face was already hanging on her eyelids, she couldn't help but sigh after fiddling with it for a long time.

Translator Zhao Guobang saw the clues and said, "What's wrong?"

Xiaoyi wiped the sweat off her face and said, "I lost contact with the Corps radio station. I have tried to launch many times, but now there is no reply."

When Zhao Guobang heard this, he frowned, and immediately understood that the situation was serious, so he got up quickly.

Some of the heads of the division were looking at the map, and some were studying the war. The unoptimistic situation cast a lingering haze on their faces. All the heads of the division were taken aback.

To be fair, it is at this time that they lost contact with Corps Radio, which is definitely not good news.The problems faced by the [-]th Division must be reported to the superiors in a timely manner. If the superiors cannot grasp the battlefield situation in time, they will not be able to make correct judgments and cannot issue combat orders.

The current battle situation is very serious. The front line is changing every minute and every second. It is almost impossible. It will delay the opportunity of the battle and eventually cause a huge irreparable loss.
Regarding the current situation, according to the routine, Mr. Zheng can "resist the orders of the emperor abroad" to be agitated, but he has never done this before. Since he joined the revolutionary team, he has strictly followed the orders issued by his superiors.

Soldiers are bound to carry out orders, and so are revolutionary soldiers.
