631 is awaiting review, I will correct it as soon as possible.

As the troop closest to the UN forces, the soldiers of the Guard Battalion switched from attack to evacuation in less than 5 minutes after receiving the order.
However, seeing the troops of the Guard Battalion preparing to evacuate, the Brigade Commander of the Ying Army didn't know whether he was kicked in the head by a donkey or squeezed by a door, and directly ordered his troops, more than half of whom had been killed or wounded, to launch a counterattack against the soldiers of the Guard Battalion who were retreating.
The soldiers of the guard battalion, who had originally felt regretful about the order to retreat, were so happy when they saw how brave these British troops were.
"First Platoon! Take two fire support vehicles and teach these John Bulls a lesson!"
"understand!"
Faced with a battalion of the Ying Army, an infantry platoon of the Guard Battalion felt no pressure at all and opened fierce shooting at the foreign devils in front of them, who outnumbered them by dozens of times. At this time, the Ying Army felt tremendous pressure facing the Guard Battalion's counterattack.
There is no other reason, the firepower of the Chinese army on the opposite side is just too strong!
"Directly penetrate from both wings and kill this infantry battalion of the Ying Army!"
"Car number one, follow us!"
Afterwards, two fire support vehicles, each carrying two squads of infantry, launched a fierce attack on an infantry brigade of the Ying Army from both wings. In this situation, the commander of the fire support vehicle did not think about saving ammunition and simply fired all his rockets directly at this infantry battalion of the Ying Army.
"Swish swish swish~"
"Boom boom boom boom."
"Oh shit! Chinese rockets!"
"hidden!"
Since a platoon of the guard battalion and an infantry battalion of the Ying army were all in a state of mobile combat, the two fire support vehicles also launched fierce shooting at the Ying army troops who had no cover to rely on.
In the state of mobile warfare, this infantry battalion of the Ying Army only had some jeeps and 12.7mm machine guns mounted on them. Because they were pursuing, they did not have time to bring other heavy equipment and began to pursue the troops of the guard battalion of the logistics support regiment.
It was the arrogant actions of the Ying army commander that led to one of their infantry battalions being suppressed by two Chinese fire support vehicles.
When being suppressed, these Ying army infantry also responded and sent out a number of infantry groups carrying super bazookas in an attempt to destroy the two strange tanks. However, there were also two infantry squads from the guard battalion beside the two fire support vehicles to cooperate in combat, and they could also provide fire guidance to the two fire support vehicles.
Moreover, behind these two fire support vehicles, there is a Type 63 12-tube 107mm rocket launcher mounted on an armored vehicle that has completed reloading.
"Attention everyone, one salvo, fire!"
As the rocket flew out of the launch tube, a cloud of smoke instantly rose behind the rocket launcher, while the rocket flying from the front fell into the area of the suppressed Ying Army Infantry Battalion.
"Boom boom boom boom boom."
"Thank you for the generous gift! Help!"
"Quickly put out the fire!"
After 12 rockets fell into the Ying army's position, huge fires rose from the Ying army's position.
That’s right, the Red Alert forces still used napalm bombs, which were their largest equipment.
With the explosion of 12 rockets, the number of casualties in the Ying Army Infantry Battalion directly rose to more than %.
As a result, the infantry of the infantry brigade of the Ying Army collapsed directly.
The collapse of the Ying Army was completely within the expectations of the Guard Battalion. After all, in the previous battles with the Guard Battalion, the Ying Army's grassroots troops suffered heavy casualties, and when facing the Guard Battalion's fire support, they were also very aware of the firepower strike capability of this equipment.
After all, the comrades around them were directly beaten to pieces by this strange tank attack. Now the Chinese army has used this tank again, and also used rocket launchers equipped with napalm bombs. Naturally, the grassroots soldiers of the Ying army are unwilling to fight against this extremely powerful Chinese army.
As for the order of the Ying Army Brigade Commander?
He is just a noble, what the hell does he know about fighting?
If all else fails, let him go to the front line and fight the Chinese!
So after the Ying army's counterattack troops retreated, the soldiers of the guard battalion responsible for blocking the enemy also began to retreat according to Zhang Shijie's order plan.
After the guard battalion broke contact with the UN forces, the situation on the battlefield on the north bank of the Han River quickly cooled down. Zhang Shijie's logistics support regiment had retreated and kept a distance from the UN forces in front, leaving them with space to reinforce their positions. At this time, the Ying Army, the Fungus, the Japanese Fungus, the South Korean puppet army and other troops still on the north bank of the Han River were unable to fight after such high-intensity combat.
The remaining time allowed both sides to catch their breath and wait for reinforcements to arrive.
At this time, in the UN headquarters, Van Fleet looked at the troops currently gathering towards the pontoon bridge, frowned and asked the staff officer beside him: "What's the situation with the Air Force?" "Sir, General LeMay sent us a combat briefing after the air battle. In this operation, the Air Force lost 574 fighters and 255 bombers, and shot down 10 Chinese Air Force fighters. Two of the Chinese Air Force's combat forces crashed in our controlled area, but the wreckage of these two planes was blown up by the Chinese Air Force before we had time to recover them!"
Originally, when Van Fleet learned that the Chinese military's fighter jets fell into their actual control area, he was somewhat happy. After a long period of fighting, even Van Fleet, who came from the army, knew very well that Chinese aircraft were much more advanced than theirs. So when he confirmed that the wreckage fell into their control range, Van Fleet was very excited.
But when they learned that the Chinese Air Force was destroyed before their troops arrived, they were somewhat devastated.
This time, their idea of reverse engineering using the aircraft wreckage was completely thwarted.
"Ask Li Mei if a localized large-scale battle breaks out between us and the Chinese army tomorrow, can the Air Force provide effective support?"
"Yes, sir!" LeMay, who was in Japan at the time, also began to look embarrassed after receiving Van Fleet's telegram.
In this large-scale air battle with the Chinese army, the losses of the Air Force and Naval Aviation were really too great. At this time, Li Mei had no confidence in another large-scale air battle.
Although the Chinese army had a small number of fighter jets, the level of their pilots and fighter jets was higher than that of the Chinese army, and the ground air defense force of the Chinese army had been greatly improved compared to the second battle, so it was very difficult for LeMay to answer Van Fleet's questions.
However, after careful consideration, LeMay gritted his teeth and ordered all the air force and naval aviation forces to prepare for war. At worst, he could directly use pilots from Japan to carry out suicide strikes and create a Cold War-era kamikaze special attack force!
After all, the Japanese were willing to play with this thing back then, so using them to carry out a suicide attack would not be a big loss.
In order to recruit these pilots to perform suicide flights, Li Mei promised to arrange for all the pilots' families to immigrate to China after completing the mission, and also give them a large amount of US dollars as a reward.
There will always be brave men when there is a big reward. Li Mei also recruited a large number of "Kamikaze Special Attack Force" members through the temptation of benefits. However, whether their families can immigrate to the United States after their death is a big question mark.
As to whether their families could actually immigrate to the United States and receive the bonus, Li Mei just smiled disdainfully.
If they failed to complete the task, then Li Mei naturally would not have to fulfill their promise. As for those who completed the task, they are all dead. Who knows whether they actually fulfilled their promise?
The only compensation they actually receive is probably the $1,000 settling-in allowance given to them when they are recruited.
After making up his mind, LeMay sent a reply to Van Fleet, indicating that their air force could support the ground forces in tomorrow's operation.
As for the extent of support that can be provided, it depends on the final strength of the Chinese attack.
At this time, the Volunteer Army was also making pre-war preparations for tomorrow's battle. A large amount of ammunition, supplies and medical resources were pouring towards the Logistics Support Regiment, and the Minister of Logistics Support Zhou Jingren was also preparing for tomorrow's battle.
"How is the defense line deployed now?" Zhang Shijie asked Zhang Ning while looking at the combat deployment map.
Zhang Ning: "Report to the commander. Now the Second and Third Combined Battalions and the Guard Battalion have completed the construction of the troops. The Volunteer Army's reinforcement troops are taking over the defense positions of the First Combined Battalion. The Sixth Combined Battalion, the First Rapid Reaction Battalion, and the Reconnaissance Battalion are advancing in the direction of the Third Combined Battalion and building a second line of defense. The Armored Battalion has completed the assembly behind the second line of defense. The air defense forces and artillery forces have also completed their deployment and are ready to provide support at any time!"
Zhang Shijie couldn't help but nodded after listening to Zhang Ning's report, and Li Zhuhan, who was in charge of intelligence work, also reported to Zhang Shijie at this time.
"Captain, according to our intelligence report, Van Fleet ordered all the main attack forces to arrive at the deployment position before 3 a.m. tomorrow, and the order of attack will be that the surrounding troops will conduct a feint attack, and after tying down our forces, the main attack force will be ordered to launch a full-scale attack on the north bank of the Han River. The feint attack time is 9 a.m. tomorrow, and the main attack time is : a.m.."
"Inform all troops of the intelligence. We cannot give the initiative to Van Fleet this time. They must have prepared a very powerful firepower deployment this time. We cannot let our comrades suffer such heavy casualties in vain. The intelligence department must find out the locations of the various artillery positions of the UN forces as much as possible!"
"Don't worry, Commander, I will complete the mission!"
Compared with the Logistics Support Corps and the Volunteer Army, which completed their combat deployment that night, the United Nations forces were far behind.
At this time, the various UN forces were still heading to their designated combat positions. Of course, the formal fungus troops had all completed their deployment. The slower-moving troops included the Ying Army, Australian Army, Philippine Monkeys, Huskies, Canadians, the Japanese and South Korean puppet troops, which served as fungus vassal forces.
Unlike these troops that were heading to the battlefield overnight, the armies of the French, Dutch and other countries did not go to the battlefield because the previous troops suffered too many casualties and had no reinforcements.
At this time, Van Fleet had not slept all night, and was busy urging these vassal troops to march back.
And these vassal troops are not fools. In the previous battles, the Ying Army and the Mold Army were almost incontinent. If they let their troops stand in the front at this time, wouldn’t it be obvious that they would be cannon fodder!
Especially among Lee Seung-man's puppet army, many deserters appeared when they learned that they were about to head to the north bank of the Han River.
I can only say, they are worthy of it!
At 6 a.m. the next day, the UN forces participating in the battle were finally assembled. Except for thousands of deserters from the South Korean army, the rest of the troops finally arrived at the designated attack positions.
"Order all participating troops to prepare for the attack immediately!"
After hearing Van Fleet's order, the liaison officer of the South Korean puppet army asked Van Fleet: "Sir, these troops have just arrived, don't you let them rest for a while?"
"Why are we still resting? These troops arrived five hours later than scheduled. I just want to kick their asses with my combat boots!"
After saying this, Van Fleet left the South Korean liaison officer with only the back of his head.
Originally, the idea of the Communist Party was to use Japanese-American soldiers as vanguard and cannon fodder. After all, these Japanese-Americans were driven by interests, and their combat capabilities were much stronger than those of the South Korean puppet troops. However, a considerable number of troops that LeMay had recruited for Van Fleet in Japan had been defeated by the Chinese army in the previous river crossing battle.
This resulted in a significant reduction in the number of Japanese-American soldiers under Van Fleet's command, so the South Korean puppet army became the combat force that Van Fleet had to mobilize.
"I hope Syngman Rhee's troops won't affect the entire battle situation too much!" Van Fleet murmured after giving the order.
At this time, behind a hill on the south bank of the Han River, one of the artillery positions arranged in advance by the mold was calibrating various parameters before the shelling.
In the previous battle, a large number of fungal artillery were destroyed under the firepower coverage of the Chinese army, and this time the fungi deliberately dispersed the previously retained troops into several small-scale artillery strike units that were easy to transfer.
Because this artillery position has a hill to protect the artillery, the number of artillery units deployed here is relatively larger.
But Moldy didn't know that the location of this artillery position had already been passed on to the artillery unit of the 38th Army of the Volunteer Army by the Red Alert spy.
From the perspective of artillery attack, the artillery of the Logistics Support Regiment could not reach here, but the artillery of the 38th Army was also equipped with the 152mm artillery used by the Red Alert. Now they were just waiting for Zhang Shijie's order to destroy this artillery position as soon as possible in the decisive battle. (End of this chapter)
