Bright sword, I have a red police base car

Chapter 632: At least you have to show some performance before leaving, right?

After confirming the largest target on the sea, the last round of missiles flew directly towards the moldy Iowa battleship.

"Boom boom boom boom."

As a series of explosions sounded, the USS Iowa, the battleship of the Fungus, instantly caught fire, and many of the Fungus's sailors were killed in the shock wave of the explosion.

Only nine of the 16 anti-ship missiles hit the battleship Iowa, and the remaining seven sank five troop transports behind it. After being hit, the troop transports sank directly to the bottom of the sea in the explosion, leaving only wreckage and oil stains on the water to prove that they had existed.

Unlike warships, transport ships are simply a group of civilian ships, and their construction standards are far different from those of warships!

In contrast, the Iowa-class battleship, which was hit by nine missiles, remained as steady as a rock on the sea after being hit. After all, although the battleship is as huge in tonnage as an aircraft carrier, as a front-line combat main ship, the battleship's armor and anti-strike capability are definitely more than an order of magnitude stronger than that of an aircraft carrier.

Even though the air-launched anti-ship missiles launched by the Volunteer Air Force all used armor-piercing warheads, the mold battleships still showed no sign of sinking.

However, after being hit by so many missiles, the propeller and steering gear of the battleship Iowa were also hit, and the entire ship instantly lost its ability to move and turn. According to the prediction of the damage control department, it would take at least two days for the battleship Iowa to restore its power system.

After all, the primary task of damage control now is to put out the fire, and the fire of rocket liquid fuel is really difficult to put out!

At this time, Ridgway, who was originally in command on the Iowa, had already transferred to other ships by lifeboat to ensure his own safety. At the same time, Ridgway also sent a radio message to Van Fleet, informing him of the situation of the landing troops at this time, and told Van Fleet that the landing troops could not land due to heavy losses.

Don’t fucking count on me!
Too many people have died, I can’t fight anymore!

According to my statistics, in this battle, I lost a total of one aircraft carrier, three destroyers, one cruiser, and five transport ships, and one battleship, two cruisers, and two destroyers were damaged.

This time, the landing troops of the mold were completely defeated.

At the same time, Van Fleet, who was directing the next operation at the United Nations Command, also received Ridgway's intelligence. When he saw the number of casualties among the navy, he was so shocked that he was speechless.

This time it has been confirmed that the old tactics of landing behind enemy lines will no longer work, so now Van Fleet can only place his hopes on ground troops.

However, the ground forces had made no progress during this period, which made Van Fleet very lacking in confidence in them.

"Forget it, let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor!"

Subsequently, Van Fleet began to order the troops on the north bank of the Han River to begin preparations for battle. This time their combat troops would use the surrounding offensive forces as the main attack, and the north bank of the Han River would only serve as their auxiliary combat force.

However, Van Fleet and others did not expect that the Volunteer Army and the Logistics Support Corps would launch another active attack.

Under the order of the Zhisi, Zhang Shijie's logistics support regiment and the Volunteer Army once again launched an attack on the mold troops.

According to the calculation of time, Zhang Shijie's logistics support group could not stay in Changjin Lake for a few more days, so Zhang Shijie took the initiative to propose that the troops launch an attack as soon as possible to eliminate the effective strength of the UN forces.

Then the entire logistics support regiment and the troops of the 38th and 50th Armies also began to attack the UN positions on the north bank of the Han River.

In ground combat, the Logistics Support Regiment and the Volunteer Army had an absolute advantage. When the artillery of the Logistics Support Regiment opened fire in the early stages of the attack, the South Korean and Indian infantry began to hide in the defensive fortifications in their positions.

The Logistics Support Corps and the Volunteer Army troops began to advance when the artillery was covering them. At this time, the UN frontline troops were under artillery fire. Even if these South Korean troops and India saw the Chinese army advancing, they could not do anything to them.

As the shelling ceased, the troops of the Logistics Support Regiment moved directly toward the UN positions.

Because the commander of the Ninth Army of the mold, Lieutenant General John Kurt, and his staff had discussed before that the South Korean troops and the Indian troops would be replaced with the Japanese mold, so now the offensive force of the logistics support regiment will first face these two big pits!

Of course, this big pit is not a big pit dug by the Logistics Support Corps itself, but a big pit dug by the United Nations forces.

After seeing the attacking forces of the logistics support regiment coming up, almost all the South Korean puppet troops and India's troops began to flee to the rear like crazy.

So the mold troops in the rear were extremely surprised to see their front-line positions being lost so directly.

No, are you guys regular troops?

It's only been a dozen minutes of artillery preparation, and you're just going to abandon your position?

John Kurt had never expected the collapse of India and South Korea, but Zhang Shijie's troops naturally could not miss such a good opportunity. They then began to drive the troops of India and South Korea towards their rear positions. At this time, they turned from cannon fodder of the United Nations forces into cannon fodder of the Chinese army.

Looking at the troops on the front line running backwards frantically, John Kurt was speechless for a moment. This was simply too out of line.

Originally, Moldy's idea was to allow these troops with relatively poor combat effectiveness to resist the firepower on the front line. Even if they could not hold on for long, they could still cause some trouble to the Chinese. At the very least, they could provide early warning. But now the South Korean troops and the Indian troops are all running to the rear without looking back. Some fleeing troops will even take the initiative to shoot at the supervising troops when they encounter them.

The Chinese on the other side have strong firepower and you guys don’t dare to fight, but you guys are really brave enough to attack your own supervision team!

They are not stupid! Looking at the fleeing troops that had already launched a charge towards him, John Kurt was so angry that he was shaking all over, as if he was having a stroke. Then John Kurt immediately asked the Yingjun liaison officer beside him: "You brought these Third Brother troops here, can you control them?!"

Upon hearing this, the liaison officer of the Ying army replied with a hint of arrogance: "General, we can definitely control our Great Ying troops ourselves. We have already sent a regiment of troops to supervise the battle. I believe the situation will be eased soon!"

Looking at this Ying Army liaison officer who was raising his nose to the sky, John Kurt's face was full of disdain, but after all, the Ying Army was a friendly force, and to a certain extent, he had the ability to communicate with them on an equal footing, so now when John Kurt saw the front-line position collapse, he still needed to ask the Ying Army's liaison officer.

After all, the Third Brother’s troops are actually still the Ying Army, just like the Japanese mold are affiliated with the mold.

If there were only South Korean troops, John Kurt would have ordered the artillery units in the rear to provide comprehensive artillery coverage.

As expected, these two bastards, South Korea and India, are really impossible to lead!

However, although the Ying army sent a regiment of troops, this regiment was blown to pieces by a mortar round from the guard battalion when it arrived at the front line and had no time to gather the fleeing troops on the front line.

The actual combat effectiveness of the troops led by Ying was not strong at this time, and the troops of this regiment were a reduction of the Ying Army Brigade that was initially sent to the north bank of the Han River. After two battles, this Ying Army brigade was directly beaten into a regiment, and until now even the regiment-level troops could not be fully staffed.

I have no idea what the commander of the Ying Army was thinking when he sent such a basically defeated army to the front line to gather up the defeated soldiers.

As a result, the Ying Corps, as the supervisory team, did not even finish shouting before they were directly defeated after several rounds of mortar bombardment from the logistics support regiment. Looking at the fleeing troops that had already rushed to their faces, they simply joined forces with these Indian troops.
The situation has come to this, just run!
At this time, the commander of the Ying Army at the front-line command center looked at the situation in front of him and his face turned pale with anger.

"Shit! A whole regiment of troops! How could they collapse after just a few rounds of artillery fire from the Chinese?!"

Seeing his superior getting angry, the Ying Army staff officer at the side wanted to complain but didn't dare to say anything. After all, everyone knew that this regiment now had only two battalions of troops, and compared with the original brigade, the casualties even exceeded 60%. How could a unit that suffered such casualties still have the will to fight?
What's more, isn't the main purpose of sending out this force because their combat effectiveness is poor and they want to get rid of the troops with low combat effectiveness first?
In the headquarters of the Ninth Fungal Army, John Kurt looked at the collapsed Ying Army Supervision Team and picked up the phone to call Van Fleet.

"Sir, I'm John Coulter!"

"Hello, Mr. Lieutenant General, what is the situation on the front line now?"

"The situation on the front line is very bad, sir. The troops of the Third Brother and Syngman Lee have collapsed across the board. Our Ying Army allies are now out of control. If we let them flee again, our position will be ruined!"

"Fake!"

At this time, Van Fleet cursed directly on the phone. He knew that the Chinese army was strong, but he did not expect that Lee Seung-man's troops and the third brother of the Ying Army could fight to such a level.

Now South Korea and South Korea have actually become negative assets for the United Nations forces on the north bank of the Han River.

"Sir, I suggest using artillery to destroy both the vassal army and the Chinese army at the front!"

John Coulter used the term "vassal troops" on the phone with the purpose of making Van Fleet think carefully about not allowing their combat operations to be affected by these troops from other gangs.

After hearing what John Kurt said, Van Fleet fell into deep thought.

After all, although these troops are not their own troops, they are still allies of the mold. If they launch indiscriminate attacks on the front line, these mold's subordinates will probably be disheartened!
Once people’s morale is divided, it will be difficult to lead the team!
To be honest, if the troops on the front line were all Japanese, Van Fleet would have opened fire without blinking an eye!

In the end, Van Fleet did not order the artillery to conduct indiscriminate fire. Instead, he ordered a Japanese division, two brigades of Japanese Americans, a Canadian regiment, and a Turkish brigade to quickly cross the pontoon bridge to reinforce the front-line troops.

At the same time, a large number of heavy weapons that had just been transported began to be reorganized for combat preparation, including a Japanese-American heavy artillery brigade, and there was also an armored brigade among the two Japanese-American brigades sent out for combat.

At this time, Zhang Shijie, who was at the headquarters of the Logistics Support Corps, also received information about the reinforcement of the troops. The reason why Zhang Shijie did not blow up the bridge again was to eliminate as many UN troops as possible on the north bank of the Han River and reduce some pressure on the Volunteer Army's subsequent operations.

No matter what, Zhang Shijie should at least give some performance before he leaves, right?
So when the UN forces were sending reinforcements to the north bank of the Han River, the logistics support regiment and the volunteer army troops were all ready for battle and began a full-scale attack on the UN forces on the north bank of the Han River.

Just like the first attack, the first thing to do in this attack was to blow up the pontoon bridge. However, this time the pontoon bridge was not blown up by the J-10 bombing, but by the open use of aerial gunboats.

Before the gunship took off, the air defense forces of the Logistics Support Regiment and the Volunteer Army all began to be on high alert. At the same time, a batch of ground-to-ground tactical missiles improved from the Hongqi-2 air defense missiles in Zhang Shijie's hands also aimed at key targets such as the mold airport and ammunition depot that were relatively close to the Logistics Support Regiment.

The basic model of the aerial gunboat is a transport aircraft, and it cannot perform ultra-low-altitude penetration like the J-10, so the anti-aircraft warning radar of the mold can definitely detect the deployment of the runaway aircraft. In order to ensure the airspace safety of the combat area, the fighter jets of the Volunteer Air Force are also ready for battle. As long as the radar detects that the mold air force is about to arrive, they will directly attack them!
However, Li Mei, who was in Japan at the time, saw from the radar that the fighter jets of the Volunteer Air Force began to take off in large numbers, and immediately realized that the Chinese army might have a big battle with them.

So after contacting Van Fleet, LeMay immediately ordered the UN Air Force to take off on a large scale, and took out his most powerful equipment, the "Kamikaze Special Attack Force" formed by Japanese pilots.

Now the weapons and equipment of the Volunteer Air Force are much more powerful than the fighter jets equipped by the mold. Under this pressure, Li Mei can only take an unconventional approach to confront the Volunteer Army.

As the fighter jets of the Chinese People's Liberation Army took off from the Japanese airfield, the radar warfare of the Volunteer Army immediately notified the J-6th Squadron that had already taken off and was on standby to go to the front line to carry out air shielding missions. On the ground, the logistics support regiment and the Volunteer Army troops were about to launch the final full-scale offensive.

This time Zhang Shijie did not hide anything. All troops, including the Army Aviation Corps, followed Zhang Shijie's orders and began to prepare for battle. (End of this chapter)
