The Bright Sword of Changjin Lake becomes stronger

Chapter 208: Gang 24th Regiment's vanguard attack, the US [-]th Division's defense line collapsed!
That night, all the seven groups just gathered.

Wu Qianli stood in front of the team and shouted: "Comrades, tonight, we must break through the defense line of the US 24th Division!"

"This battle is directly related to the success or failure of the battle. No matter what, we must seize the opposite position and completely defeat the US 24th Division."

"China will win!"

"The Seventh Regiment will definitely win!"

The soldiers shouted in unison.

Wu Qianli waved his hand and ordered: "Enter the attack position!"

"Yes!"

Then the soldiers lined up in neat lines and rushed towards the attack position.

At the same time, on the artillery position.

Battalion Commander Yang shouted loudly: "Comrades! The time has come to be loyal to the country and fight against the ruthless American devils!"

"No matter what, you must open a hole for me to cover the infantry charge."

"Yes!"

"Report to the battalion commander! All guns are ready, please give instructions!"

Battalion Commander Yang ordered loudly: "Fire!"

"Fire~!"

Following the order from Battalion Commander Yang, the rumbling sound of artillery suddenly sounded from the artillery position.

"Chirp chirp~!"

Amidst the ear-piercing whistling sound, artillery shells flew quickly towards the US military position in the distance.

At the same time, rumbles of artillery were heard from other artillery positions.

One after another, with a harsh whistling sound, like meteors, the artillery shells flew towards the US military position one after another.

"Boom~! Boom~!"

Violent explosions sounded one after another, and soon the US military position was caught in artillery fire.

At this time, the soldiers of the Gang [-]th Regiment had already entered the attack position and were ready to charge.

Wu Qianli clenched the steel gun in his hand and looked at the US military position in the distance.

In order to break through the US military's defense line, this time the volunteers also concentrated all their artillery fire and bombed the US military's forward positions with all their strength.

Looking at the US military positions caught in artillery fire, the morale of the soldiers was also high, just waiting for the attack order to be issued.

At this time, the US artillery also began to carry out artillery counterattack and began to shell the volunteer artillery positions.

Wu Qianli looked up at the shells flying in the air, frowned slightly, and said: "The American artillery fire is too fierce, and our artillery may not be able to hold out for long."

"Be prepared for battle and be ready to attack at any time."

"Yes!"

Wu Wanli responded quickly and then conveyed the order.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, several shining flares soared into the sky.

This is the signal for attack.

Wu Qianli immediately jumped up and shouted: "Comrades! Charge with me!"

"kill!"

The soldiers of Gang [-]th Regiment, who had been impatient for a long time, burst into roars and rushed out of their positions one by one.

Yu Congrong also jumped up, clenched the steel gun in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Grandma, rush forward and kill these stupid American devils!"

"Kill it~!"

Accompanied by deafening shouts of killing, the heroic volunteer soldiers rushed towards the US military position with overwhelming force.

A fierce battle broke out.

In the headquarters of the US 24th Division, Major General Chaqi held up a telescope and observed the situation in the distance.

A US military colonel next to him said cautiously: "Based on the current situation, the Chinese army has invested tens of thousands of troops and launched a fierce attack across the board."

Major General Chachi's face became more serious and he said: "No matter what, we must hold our position and stabilize our defense line."

"I am ordering all the troops to defend their positions. No one is allowed to take even a step back. Anyone who disobeys the order will be severely punished."

"yes sir!"

Major General Chachi knew very well that now had reached the most critical moment. If they could not effectively block the Volunteer Army's attack, their situation would become very dangerous.

At this time, a US military staff officer came over and said: "Report sir, the general has sent a telegram asking about the situation of the war."

Major General Chaqi replied: "Call back to the general immediately. The Chinese army has launched its most violent offensive. Now our situation is very bad."

"We hope to receive direct support to contain the Chinese army's offensive."

"yes sir!"

A few minutes later, Ridgway called back again.

"Sir, the general ordered us to hold on to the defense line and never allow the Chinese army to cross the defense line even half a step."

"The general also said that if we lose our position, you will be removed from your post?"

Major General Chucky snatched the telegram, read it carefully, and couldn't help cursing: "Fuck~!"

Although he was very angry, Major General Chachi was helpless in the face of such a situation. He could only reply helplessly: "Call the general back and tell him that we will go all out to defend the position."

"yes sir!"

Major General Chachi knew that now they had no other choice but to go all out and fight the volunteers.

On the battlefield with heavy artillery fire, Wu Qianli led the soldiers of the assault battalion and rushed towards the top of a mountain with the team.

On the U.S. military positions on the mountain, the U.S. military's firepower points were constantly spitting out tongues of fire, sweeping down pieces of bullets.

Among the soldiers rushing in front, some fell down one after another.

Wu Qianli gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Keep charging, no matter what, you must rush forward."

As he spoke, he kept shooting, killing all the American soldiers that could be killed.

However, the US military occupies a favorable terrain, is condescending, and has a great advantage.

The volunteers attack from the rear, and it is not that easy to kill the enemies above.

In particular, the positions of several machine gun firepower points of the US military were quite tricky, blocking all the attack routes of the soldiers.

However, their location was relatively safe. The volunteers tried their best to suppress their firepower, but the effect was not obvious.

Wu Qianli hid behind a big rock, threw the gun to Wu Wanli, and shouted: "Bazooka!"

Wu Wanli quickly handed over a bazooka rocket launcher.

Wu Qianli took the rocket launcher, took a deep breath, saw the right moment, set up the rocket launcher, and aimed at a US military firepower point.

"Chirp~!"

A harsh whistling sound sounded, and a rocket flew past quickly.

The rocket accurately penetrated the shooting hole of the US military bunker, and then exploded loudly in the bunker.

"Boom~!"

With a violent explosion, the bunker was completely destroyed. No American soldiers inside were spared, and all were sent to hell.At the same time, Lei Gong's mortars also found the right opportunity, aimed at the US military position on the mountain, and began to fire.

As the artillery shells fell on the US military position one after another, violent explosions sounded, and the US military's firepower was temporarily suppressed.

Wu Qianli saw the opportunity, led the soldiers to rush forward, and soon rushed to a place only about 20 meters away from the US military position.

Wu Qianli shouted: "Grenade!"

Wu Wanli and the soldiers threw out the grenades they had prepared.

In an instant, grenades emitted black smoke and fell one after another on the US military position.

"Boom~! Boom~!"

Violent explosions sounded one after another, and dozens of grenades exploded on the US military position.

The U.S. soldiers hiding in the trenches were immediately knocked upside down by the bombing, leaving many dead and injured.

Wu Qianli shouted loudly: "Comrades, rush with me!"

"Kill it~!"

Shocking shouts of killing rang out, and the brave warriors continued to rush towards the mountain.

Under the cover of this round of grenade rain, Wu Qianli led the soldiers to rush forward and rushed directly to the top of the mountain.

Wu Qianli jumped into a trench, and several American soldiers screamed in fright, turned around and ran away.

Wu Qianli was not polite, he directly picked up the submachine gun, pointed it at the US military and pulled the trigger.

"Da da da~!"

Intensive gunfire rang out, and a hail of bullets swept across. The enemies were instantly beaten into sieves and killed on the spot.

More and more soldiers took the opportunity to rush to the US military position. Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining US troops on the position turned around and fled in fear.

The soldiers became more and more courageous as they fought, taking advantage of the opportunity to chase and kill the enemies all the way, leaving corpses all over the field.

Most of the American troops who were fleeing were unable to escape the pursuit of the soldiers and became the dead souls of the soldiers.

There were also some U.S. soldiers who were more sensible. Seeing that the situation was not good, they were so frightened that they raised their guns and surrendered directly.

None of them ran, they squatted in the trench, raised their guns, and surrendered.

Because they understood that no matter how fast his legs ran, they could not run faster than bullets.

If you run at this time, you are seeking death. It is better to surrender directly, so that you can at least save your life.

Soon the mountaintop position was completely occupied by volunteer soldiers.

Wu Qianli shouted loudly: "Members of the seventh regiment, follow me and continue to attack."

"Yes!"

Then Wu Qianli took the lead and rushed down the hillside, continuing to rush towards the south.

New combat orders have been issued, and all units will continue to launch fierce attacks and attack with all their strength to completely defeat the US 24th Division.

Therefore, on this line of defense, after the volunteers opened several small gaps, they ordered the troops to rush forward quickly. The purpose was to take advantage of this opportunity to completely overwhelm the deployment of the US military.

The entire U.S. military's defense line was originally stable, but after several gaps appeared, it began to collapse rapidly.

Because the troops from Xiang Gang Seventh Regiment and others who came in first began to attack everywhere, completely disrupting the military deployment of the US military.

Some U.S. troops holding their positions saw artillery fire coming from behind and thought their rear was lost. They were so frightened that they abandoned their positions and began to flee. Soon, the entire 24th Division's defense line completely collapsed.

After receiving the news, Major General Chachi cursed angrily: "Fuck, you, you are a bunch of trash, how could you be defeated by the Chinese army so quickly? This is simply a shame and a great humiliation."

A US military colonel next to him said quickly: "Sir, the Chinese army has broken through our defense line. Now the entire defense line has completely collapsed. For your safety, it is better to retreat quickly."

Major General Chachi said angrily: "Can't we re-stabilize the defense line?"

The US military colonel said helplessly: "Some troops have lost contact and cannot reorganize, so..."

After hearing this, Major General Chachi gave up resistance completely and said quickly: "In that case, retreat quickly."

"yes sir!"

Major General Chaqi did not hesitate. After giving the order, he immediately dropped his bag and ran away, for fear that he would be unable to escape if he ran too slowly.

I have to say that this old guy still cherishes his life very much.

At this time, a staff officer shouted: "Sir, the general has sent a telegram."

But at this moment, he could no longer find his division commander, and Major General Chachi ran away.

After learning the news, the staff officer could only reply a telegram to Ridgway, then packed up his things and ran away with him.

Chief of Staff Dole took this telegram and came to Li Qiwei. He frowned and said, "General, I just received a telegram from the 24th Division. Their defense line has been defeated."

"The defense of the troops has basically collapsed, and the troops are retreating with all their strength to avoid being surrounded and annihilated by the main force of the Chinese army."

"what?"

Li Qiwei couldn't help but his eyes widened in surprise, and asked: "How could it be so fast? What does this 24th Division do? How could they be defeated so quickly?"

Chief of Staff Dole said helplessly: "Well, I don't know about my humble position, but it is indeed the case. General, please calm down."

Li Qiwei said angrily: "Where is Chachi?"What is this bastard doing? '

Chief of Staff Dole said helplessly: "The Chinese army is attacking rapidly. It is said that he has begun to retreat with his headquarters. Now the entire 24th Division has been completely defeated."

"We are beyond help."

Ridgway slapped the table and cursed loudly: "Chachi is a complete idiot, I want to remove him."

"I'm removing him! Court-martial this bastard."

Chief of Staff Dole quickly advised: "General, calm down. Even if we send him to a military court, we have to wait until the battle is over."

"The question is what to do now?"

Li Qiwei frowned and said: "The 24th Division's defense line has collapsed. The enemy has opened this gap and will definitely advance further south, so we must block their attack."

Li Qiwei asked: "Behind the 24th Division, there should be British troops."

Chief of Staff Dole nodded and said: "Yes, it is the 29th Brigade of the British Army. I think they can try to stabilize the situation."

Li Qiwei ordered with a serious face: "Send them a telegram immediately and order them to step forward immediately to stop the Chinese army's attack."

"It is necessary to ensure the safety of the defense line, cover the retreat of the 24th Division, and re-build its defense line."

"As long as they can complete this task, I will definitely give them a big credit."

"yes sir!"

Chief of Staff Dole responded quickly and then ordered someone to convey the order.

Li Qiwei looked at the sand table in front of him, frowned and said: "It seems that we have underestimated the Chinese army. It is unreasonable to let them break through the 24th Division's defense line so quickly."

Chief of Staff Dole said: "The 24th Division has been pampered in Japan in the past few years, and its combat effectiveness has seriously declined. The battles in these few battles have not been very good."

"In addition, China sent the most elite Gangqi Regiment as the vanguard. It is said that it tore a hole in the 24th Division's defense line."

Li Qiwei cursed angrily: "No need to make excuses, a small force, no matter how elite, cannot decide the overall situation."

"A loser like Chucky must be severely punished."

"Others' positions were well defended, but theirs was breached so quickly."

"If this gap cannot be closed, it will definitely affect the outcome of the entire battle. No matter what, this gap must be filled."

Major General Dole said quickly: "General, don't worry, we will do our best to resist the Chinese army's offensive and restore the defense line as soon as possible."
