    To the east of Pingkang County is Jinhua County. A few kilometers northeast of Jinhua County there is a small mountain village called Shangganling. There is a huge abandoned gold mine here. In early April, the Chinese Volunteer Army  The enlarged meeting was held here. In addition to the heads of the Volunteer Army command organs, the meeting also included the military and political officers of several armies that had entered the DPRK early, as well as some leaders of the Third Corps and the 19th Corps that had just entered the DPRK. At the same time, the North  Leaders of the Korean People's Army also attended the meeting.

    At this meeting, under the auspices of Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai, a summary of the Fourth Battle was first made. Although there were many lessons learned, all commanders finally reached a consensus on two points: First, this war must be  It is an arduous and long-term war, and it is impossible to win quickly. Secondly, in the face of the modern equipment of the US military, it is very difficult for the Chinese and North Korean coalition forces to stick to the defense. They must also carry out active movements, attack and defense.  !

    Facing the new forces that have joined the Korean battlefield, Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai seems to be a hundred times more confident. After all, on this peninsula, China and North Korea still have a certain advantage based on the existing military strength.  Therefore, before the fourth battle was over, he was already thinking about the fifth battle.

    At this time, the United Nations Army adopted a policy of advancing northward steadily and step by step. In the process of advancing, the troops were not very fast, but they were very determined. They pushed the front line flatly, leaving no gaps, even if they crossed the 38th Parallel.  This is still the case. If the fight continues like this, for the Chinese and North Korean coalition forces, it will be like a fish caught in a net.  Regarding this dilemma, Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai was prepared to use an immediate counterattack as a breakthrough, but some people still suggested that it was too hasty and that they should retreat proactively like a second battle to find more suitable fighters.  At this time, a piece of erroneous intelligence caused the battle to proceed ahead of schedule without adequate preparations.  There is intelligence that Ridgway may learn from General MacArthur's experience of the Inchon landing, and prepare to conduct landing operations in the Wonsan and Tongcheon areas to attack the Chinese volunteers from the north and the south; and there is also intelligence that the Americans have transferred more troops from the mainland.  Two divisions have arrived in Japan; and Chiang Kai-shek's Kuomintang has arrived at Jeju Island with 30,000 troops.  Americans are very good at conducting amphibious landing operations, as can be seen from the Normandy landing in World War II and the recent Incheon landing.  If the Americans carry out large-scale landings from the east and west coasts of the peninsula, and cooperate with the United Nations troops to advance northward from the front, this situation will be a disaster for the Chinese and North Korean coalition forces!

    In order to avoid this very worrying and terrible situation, Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai finally decided to adopt the strategy of striking first, to get ahead of the possible landing operations by the Americans and put pressure on them from the front of the battle line in order to crush the U.S. military.  An attempt to eliminate the threat from the Chinese and North Korean coalition forces.

    Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai has a big appetite. For the fifth battle, the strength of the Chinese and North Korean coalition forces has exceeded 500,000, and the enemy in front of them is only 300,000. Therefore, Commander-in-Chief Peng is calling the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.  , confidently stated that this was the largest fierce battle since entering the DPRK. Even if it cost 50,000 to 60,000 people, several enemy divisions would still be wiped out!  Mao Zedong also readily approved this battle.

    The start time of the fifth battle has been set on April 22nd.

    According to the pre-war battle plan, in this battle, the Volunteer Army is preparing to form three assault groups with a total of 12 corps in three corps to carry out the main assault on the Western Front.  With the Third Corps as the central assault group, it carried out assaults from the front; with the Ninth Corps as the left-wing assault group, and the 19th Corps as the right-wing assault group, it carried out campaign detours from both wings. The Korean People's Army actively suppressed the enemy and annihilated them at every opportunity.

    The 72nd Army is attached to the left-wing assault group and launches an attack from the direction of Pyeongkang County between Cheorwon and Kimhwa. After breaking through the six-kilometer enemy defense line, it prepares to assault in the direction of Gapyeong to cut off the route from Chuncheon to Gapyeong.  highway to achieve the purpose of severing the connection between the east and west lines of the United Nations forces; the main task of the 215th Division is to advance between Hwacheon and Chunchon in order to cut off the enemy's retreat and cooperate with friendly forces to suppress the Western aid of the U.S. forces on the east line.  Ensure the safety of the left wing in the main assault direction of the battle.

    The combat plan has been conveyed by Commander Xiong Zhuoran to the three divisions under the 72nd Army. The three division commanders are also making preparations separately. There are still three days before the attack. Although it is hasty, it is enough for each division to prepare well before the war.  The mobilization work has been carried out.

    Wang Dahu frowned. The task of the 215th Division was not easy. He knew that the Huachuan area was a key defensive area for the enemy. After the battle in Tupingli, he really had no idea whether he could capture Huachuan.  Be sure, after all, Huachuan is much larger than Dipingli, and it is much harder to fight.

    ¡°There are still three days left¡±Time!  "Political commissar Yao Qigang persuaded Wang Dahu.

    Wang Dahu glanced at him and smiled bitterly: "Three days are not enough for us to prepare!"

    "However, the battle is about to start, and our division can no longer hold back the 72nd Army!" Yao Qigang reminded the division commander that at the troop mobilization meeting just held, Xiong Zhuoran, the commander of the 72nd Army, also specially  The name of the 215th Division was called at the meeting. In the last battle at Touping-ri, he always believed that the main reason for the defeat was due to the unfavorable attack of the 215th Division at the beginning of the battle and failed to capture Touping-ri in one fell swoop.  This caused the bull behind to reach its horns.

    "I don't want to be a hindrance!" Wang Dahu couldn't help but sigh. Among the three division commanders of the 72nd Army, he was the only one who was transferred from outside, so he always felt that Xiong Zhuoran was worried about him and didn't have enough confidence.  confidence.

    "It's okay, there are still three days, we can always come up with a way to win!" Yao Qigang comforted him.

    Wang Dahu nodded and said nothing more. Although there may not be many such methods, there should be some.

    Zhang Xian, who was acting as a guard next to him, had been listening carefully. At this time, seeing Wang Dahu's helplessness, he felt that he should help his fellow countryman and reminded him: "Master, I think we should go to do some reconnaissance first.  HwaChuan¡¯s situation, and then make plans!¡±

    Wang Dahu turned his head, glanced at him, nodded his head, and said in agreement: "Yes, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle! We do still have to do some reconnaissance first, but we must not follow the same plan as last time.  It's the same here, before you know the details of the other party, you take action, making yourself like a headless fly, and when the fight starts, it turns into a mess!" He said, but he said with some difficulty: "Now  Each regiment in our division is composed of more than half new recruits, and the reconnaissance company in the division headquarters has also been withdrawn. The current reconnaissance system has not been perfected, so who will be sent there?"

    Zhang Xian couldn't help but smile bitterly. Wang Dahu's intention when he said such words in front of him was already very clear. He just wanted him to conduct reconnaissance, but he didn't say it out loud and asked himself to volunteer.  At the moment, he had no choice but to follow the snake on the pole and said to himself: "Then I'll take the people there!"

    Wang Dahu nodded and said with a smile: "Haha, I was thinking just now. You, Yu Deshui, really have to do the reconnaissance yourself. I really don't feel comfortable sending someone else to do it. You have a delicate heart and a smart mind.  It's like other people move faster, so it's most appropriate for you to go."

    Zhang Xian nodded, but continued: "But, teacher, I still need to bring a translator!"

    "Well! This is easy to handle. Just find a Korean soldier to go with you. By the way, you worked well with Xiao Anzi last time, so let him go with you!" Wang Dahu told Zhang Xian.  Xiao Anzi, also known as An Richang, is a Korean young man and a guard beside Wang Dahu. In fact, he is the translator.

    Zhang Xian nodded again and said: "It's okay to take him with me, but I still want to find someone to help!"

    "No problem, as long as you want to find someone to go with you, I agree!" Wang Dahu agreed without waiting for Zhang Xian to name the person.

    Zhang Xian smiled and said: "This is not from our army, but from the People's Army. His name is Park Xishun!"

    Wang Dahu was stunned for a moment, but shook his head and said: "Yu De Shui, Yu De Shui, you can give me problems. If the people in our division are okay, you ask me to order the people of the People's Army. How can I order them?"  ?Besides, where can I find this person?"

    Zhang Xiandao: "I know that to the east of us is the First Corps of the Korean People's Army. The regiment of Commander Jin Tieshan is very close to our division headquarters. As long as the division commander writes a request letter, I think Commander Jin will definitely send Park Hee-soon.  of!"

    "That's easy to talk about!" Wang Dahu nodded, but asked a little confused: "By the way, Ah Shui, there is a translator, why do you still have to bring that Pu Xishun with you?"

    Zhang Xian then said truthfully: "There are advantages to bringing him along. This person is very special. He used to be a member of the Li Puppet Army. He not only understands our Chinese, but is also proficient in American. His English is very good. Bringing such a person with him,  When the time comes, whether it¡¯s dealing with the Americans or Li¡¯s Puppet Army, it will all come in handy so that you won¡¯t be unable to understand what¡¯s being said!¡±

    "So that's it!" Wang Dahu suddenly realized, and at the same time he didn't forget to joke: "Haha, it seems that if you know a few more foreign languages, you can really become a good person!"

    Zhang Xian didn't answer. In fact, he had just met this platoon leader of the People's Army with whom he had a good relationship not long ago. The platoon leader may have been polite and said that he hoped to have the opportunity to fight alongside him in the future.  .  It seemed that this time, he finally made Platoon Leader Park's kind words come true.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)??www.hlnovel.com
