    Many times, experience is the best sword, which can often pierce even the toughest armor of the opponent at the most critical moment.  Obviously, this time the battle was based on the rich experience of the People's Liberation Army and the Kuomintang army in internal battles, and the United Nations troops were fought as if they were Kuomintang troops.

    What Cao Shuang said about a new and big battle was about to begin was definitely not a lie. In fact, for Zhang Xian, he had always been confused about why the Volunteer Army had the advantage in the first round of the confrontation with the United Nations Army.  After that, why did they give up the captured Qingchuan River line and retreat north to Dingzhou, north of Taichuan, Yunshan and Miaoxiang Mountains while fighting?  There was some resistance at the beginning, but at the end of the battle, the superiors ordered the entire line to retreat quickly.  Although he had long suspected that the Volunteer Army might be using tactics to mislead soldiers, arrogant soldiers, and lure soldiers, he was still a little surprised when he heard it from Cao Shuang's mouth at this time.  What surprised him was not how perfectly these strategies of the Volunteer Army were applied, but because the United Nations forces, led by the US military and commanded by the world-famous General MacArthur, were full of capable people. How could they be defeated for the first time?  Under the circumstances, can¡¯t you still see the Volunteer Army¡¯s second attempt?

    Perhaps, for General MacArthur, he simply did not pay attention to these Chinese who crossed the Yalu River. At this time, he was already so proud that he was a little arrogant!

    Indeed, in Paul's eyes at this time, General MacArthur was already a arrogant and arrogant commander. When he issued the slogan of ending the Korean War before Christmas, he only saw victory in sight, but could not see victory and victory at all.  Failure is actually one step away.

    The special team led by Paul took a helicopter from the Tianmo Mountain area to Yongbyin City on the Kowloon River. This was already the defense area of ??the 25th US Division. But when Paul and Tom got off the helicopter  When he left, he seemed a little embarrassed and desolate. When he went there, there were nine tall and majestic warriors, but when he came back, only four were left, and two of them were seriously injured, including his fellow countryman Tom; only four of them were left.  He and a communications liaison officer were still intact, but with some minor injuries.

    The commander of the 25th Division of the U.S. Army is called Keane, and he is very familiar with Guy, the commander of the 1st Cavalry Division. Paul is the combat staff of the staff of the U.S. Eighth Army. Of course, he also knows this major general and has taken a photo with him.  Under the leadership of a staff officer, Paul passed through Yongbyon City, which was almost in ruins, and met Major General Keen in a ruined temple in the south of the city that had not yet collapsed. At this time, this ruined temple also became the second largest in the United States.  The temporary division headquarters of the 15th Division is located, and on its periphery, there are defensive positions with three layers inside and three layers outside.  In fact, Yongbyon Castle was surrounded and captured by the Chinese during the Unsan War a few days ago, but they finally withdrew back to the north. Thinking about that battle now, it seems like a dream.  It still makes Paul and Tom confused.

    "Colonel Paul!" Before Paul could speak first, Keen called his name first, stretched out his hand to hold his hand, and said politely: "Welcome! Welcome!"

    Paul quickly saluted, and then held the hand he extended with both hands. After all, his position was one level lower, so he needed more etiquette to treat his superiors.

    The two chatted for a while, but Paul asked in great surprise: "General, before I came, your 25th Division was still in the area south of the Qingchuan River. How did you advance so fast? It took only three days to arrive.  Yongbyon, isn¡¯t it a bit rash to advance?¡± In fact, the US 25th Division was responsible for the defense of Seoul a few days ago, and this time it was recently transferred to the northern battlefield.

    Keen glanced at him, but shook his head and said with a smile: "Colonel Paul, it seems you are too behind. Our division was ordered to advance north. We arrived at Yongbyon yesterday, and our leading troops were about to reach Yun."  Mountain!¡±

    Paul couldn¡¯t help but frown, and couldn¡¯t help but ask: ¡°So general, when your division was advancing, did you not encounter any obstruction from the Chinese?¡±

    "Of course!" Keen replied, and at the same time said: "When we fought across the Qingchuan River, we encountered resistance from them, but those were sporadic armed forces. Although there were Chinese among them, most of them  They are still Koreans. Haha, when we crossed the Chongchon River and pushed to Yongbyon, those Chinese and Koreans had disappeared. They have no idea of ??their own strength, they are simply vulnerable!"

    Listening to Keane's proud look, Paul felt more and more that something was wrong. If the Chinese were really escaping, it would be impossible to organize a convoy to transport so many supplies from China. He shook his head and reminded the people in front of him.  The fat general said: "I just came back from the enemy's rear, and they didn't run away.", as if looking at a monster.

    "What's wrong with me?" Zhang Xian became a little confused and couldn't help but turned around and asked Cao Shuang.

    Cao Shuang smiled and asked, "Ah Shui, I heard that you served as a soldier in the 18th Army of the Kuomintang, right?"

    Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment, then immediately became vigilant. He nodded and told him at the same time: "I was a squad leader in the 11th Division!"

    "Haha, the 11th Division of the Kuomintang!" Cao Shuang smiled again, but then asked: "I heard that this unit of the Kuomintang also fought against Japanese troops. Is that true?"

    Zhang Xian did not answer immediately. He was thinking about the purpose of Cao Shuang's question. According to Yu Deshui's resume, he had not yet joined the army when the 11th Division fought against the Japanese.

    "Of course it's true!" Behind Zhang Xian, Xiong Sanwa took over the words and said with certainty: "At that time, we fought a lot against the Japanese. I participated in the Battle of Yichang and the Battle of Western Hubei.  , Battle of Changde, Battle of Xiangxi!" He said very proudly.

    "Haha, didn't you say you were in the 74th Army when you were looking for the Japanese?" Cao Shuang couldn't help but ask with a smile.

    "I have been in both the 74th Army and the 18th Army!" Xiong Sanwa said seriously.

    "Haha, the Seventy-Fourth Army is also a powerful force to fight the Japanese!" Cao Shuang said, and sighed again: "Hey, it's just a pity" He did not say any more.

    Xiong Sanwa couldn't help but ask: "What's the pity?"

    Cao Shuang looked back at him and said: "It's a pity that they eventually became enemies of the people and worked wholeheartedly for Chiang Kai-shek's reactionary clique, so they perished!"

    After listening to Cao Shuang's words, Xiong Sanwa fell silent and said no more. For a defeated army, no matter how glorious the past, it cannot undo a single failure. In this world, heroes have always been judged by their success or failure.  The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Very few people can break away from this stereotype.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
