The Bright Sword of Changjin Lake becomes stronger

Chapter 183 The Battle of Toping-ri on the Eastern Front breaks out!

Allied Forces Command, inside the command hall
"Report to General!"

"The Eighth Division of Han was defeated across the board, and the Ninth Regiment of the Second Division was almost completely wiped out!"

Chief of General Staff Dole lowered his head and reported with a complicated expression.

"what?!"

"The Korean 7000th Division has nearly 3000 people, more than [-] American elites, plus dozens of tanks and armored vehicles. They were eaten up by the Chinese army so quickly!?"

"Fuck you!"

"Where is the commander of the ninth regiment? Where did he break through with his security company? This traitor to America! Shame!"

Li Qiwei was stunned at first, then angrily tore up the battle report in his hand, holding his neck and roared angrily.

"General, calm down."

"It is said that the commander of the ninth regiment fought until the last moment and committed suicide by drinking a bullet..."

Chief of Staff Dole sighed and said slowly.

"Kill yourself by drinking bullets..."

Li Qiwei murmured, the anger in his heart gradually subsided, and his mood changed from anger to a little helpless.

Among the many officers in the US military, this regiment commander is already considered to have integrity.

"Damn it, it would be great if he used this determination to stick to Hengcheng..."

After Li Qiwei regained his composure, he looked at the strategic map and sighed.

"General, Hengcheng and Dipingli on the eastern front are horns of each other and coordinate defense."

"Now Hengcheng has been occupied by the Chinese army, and Diping is a little helpless..."

Chief of Staff Dole looked at the strategic map and analyzed with a frown.

"From a tactical perspective, it is indeed difficult to defend Touping-ri, and it will cause heavy losses to the defenders."

“But from a strategic perspective, Touping-ri must not be lost!”

"Although the Chinese military is at its peak, they cannot continue to fight."

"As long as Tipingli can hold on for a few days, until the Chinese army's logistics supplies are insufficient, they will inevitably retreat."

"At this time, if we concentrate our forces and launch a fierce counterattack, the Chinese army will surely retreat steadily, or even be completely defeated!"

Li Qi slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed through his blue eyes.

"Yes, sir!"

Chief of Staff Dole nodded slightly, understanding Li Qiwei's determination, and then went to the staff headquarters to formulate a specific plan.

Soon, the Allied General Staff Department completed the drafting of the Tupingli combat plan, and Li Qiwei immediately signed and agreed.

After the order was issued, the U.S. military on the eastern front began to adjust its defense line around Dipingli and mobilized a large amount of weapons and ammunition to support Dipingli.

More than 5000 elite Allied troops were crammed into a small Diping, and they were equipped with extremely strong firepower.

Shiji also responded quickly, mobilizing the main forces of the Gang 39th Regiment and the [-]th Army to outflank them, and soon got close to Touping-ri.

Gangqi Regiment Headquarters

"Captain, the casualty report is much better than I thought!"

"Most of the wounded have no infection, and their healing speed is surprisingly fast. It is expected that they will be able to fight soon."

Mei Sheng handed the casualty report to Wu Qianli and said in surprise.

"Nonsense, this is one of the ultimate permanent rewards for our battle at Changjin Lake. I'll be scolded if it doesn't work."

Wu Qianli was secretly proud in his heart, but his face remained calm.

"Commander, the firepower battalion has replaced the damaged Browning heavy machine gun and replenished the ammunition. This American devil is so fat!"

Yu Congrong leaned over and laughed.

"Yeah, originally I was worried that the artillery battalion's artillery shells were used up too quickly, but in the end, we captured so much that we couldn't move it away, so we simply left it with the friendly forces."

Lei Gong took a puff of his pipe and said with a smile.

In the battle to ambush the [-]th US Army Regiment, the [-]th Gang Regiment played an irreplaceable role.

The friendly forces were therefore very humble, allowing the Gangqi Regiment to challenge and seize the loot first, and then leave the rest to them.

The soldiers of Gang [-]th Regiment had a major overhaul. They had the best weapons and ammunition, and their firepower was even stronger than at the beginning.

If it weren't for the fear that the ammunition would be lost too quickly and the logistics supplies would not be able to keep up, the soldiers of the seventh regiment would have picked up Thomsons and M3 submachine guns and taken them away.

"Well, we did have a good fight in the Hengcheng battle, but we can't take it lightly. The tough battle is in the Dipingli battle." Wu Qianli smiled slightly, pressed down with his hands, and said slowly.

"Brother, you have said it many times that Diping is difficult to chew. We have already captured Seoul. Are we still afraid of a small Diping?"

Wu Wanli scratched the back of his head and asked unconvinced.

"The recovery of Seoul was entirely due to the defeat of too many American troops in the Battle of Changjin Lake. They were short of troops and had no choice but to shrink their defense lines."

"If the American devils are determined to defend Seoul, we are still fighting outside the city."

Wu Qianli smiled and analyzed Wu Wanli.

"Captain, whether it's a donkey or a horse, it has to be pulled out for a ride!"

"Since Seoul was given up by the American devils, we will see the truth if we storm the Topying-ri they defended."

Yu Congrong waved his hand very domineeringly, his heart full of fighting spirit.

Wu Qianli looked at the others and found that except for Pinghe and Meisheng, they all looked like arrogant soldiers.

"Eh... no wonder our army has suffered so much in history. The Battle of Changjin Lake was so good that many soldiers despised the US military."

Wu Qianli smiled bitterly and shook his head, sighing in his heart.

"Captain, according to the reconnaissance battalion's investigation, the U.S. military troops in Tuiping are definitely more than the two battalions mentioned in the intelligence."

"The US military has sent a lot of reinforcements in the past few days, as well as a large amount of heavy firepower and ammunition. I am afraid that Dipingli has been armed into an 'iron wall', just waiting for us to run into it."

Pinghe handed over the specific report of the investigation to Wu Qianli and sighed.

"Yes, Commander, the terrain conditions in Dipingli are too good, which is not conducive to the deployment of our large army. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"If we attack rashly and cannot attack for a long time, we will definitely suffer heavy losses. Our Gang [-]th Regiment may be beaten back to Gang [-]th Company..."

Mei Sheng hesitated for a while and expressed his worries.

"Your worries are right, but who said that the Seventh Regiment will participate in the battle of Topyeong-ri?"

Wu Qianli smiled slightly and asked.

"Brother, don't we want to do our best to assist the friendly forces and win the battle on the Eastern Front? We can't just sit idly by."

Wu Wanli was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.

"I dare to say that the attack on Topying-ri will definitely fail!"

"The elite of our seventh regiment just devoted themselves to this strangulation, which did not help the battle at all."

"Our opportunity lies in pretending to retreat after the Battle of Toipingri, luring Ridgway to launch a counterattack, and then taking the opportunity to target the main force of the US military and kill a large number of its effective forces."

"In this way, we can remain undefeated in the fourth battle, and we can continue to occupy Seoul and draw the battle line near the [-]th parallel."

Wu Qianli looked at the strategic map and analyzed it carefully.

"Near the [-]th parallel?"

"Brother, can't we fight all the way across and liberate the entire Korean Peninsula?"

Wu Wanli frowned in confusion and asked.

"Silly boy, we are fighting the US military here, and our supply lines are in ruins."

"If we continue to go deeper, there is a risk of running out of ammunition and food at any time."

Mei Sheng shook his head and said helplessly.

"Not only that, even if we win consecutive battles and fight all the way south to Busan, that will only be the advantage of the army."

"The US military can land at Incheon again at any time to cut off our army's retreat. By then, the front will have to be pushed to the vicinity of the Yalu River."

Wu Qianli looked at the strategic map and said soberly.

"Captain, what are you going to do?"

Mei Sheng understood that Wu Qianli had already made up his mind and asked quickly.

"First of all, send a telegram to the Chief of Staff to warn of the situation in Dipingli, hoping that the friendly forces will suffer less losses."

"Then, if the Battle of Topyeong-ri is successful, the Gang [-]th Regiment can directly penetrate and build blocking positions at the rear of the US military to block the retreating US troops and cooperate with the friendly forces on the eastern front to annihilate them!"

"If the battle of Topyeong-ri fails, I hope Shiji will mobilize troops and cooperate with the Gang [-]th Regiment to build defensive positions in the Hwachuan area, bite the American pursuers, and make them kowtow and bleed!"

Wu Qianli clenched his fist with his right hand, slammed it on the strategic map, and ordered.

"Yes!"

Mei Sheng responded immediately and prepared to send a message to the Chronicle Department. (End of chapter)
