    It did take Paul some time to convince Commander Almonte, but in the end the major general accepted the suggestion to let the troops continue to advance north. As an excellent commander, of course he also knew what a fighter plane was, but he was just afraid of it.  The rhetoric of the politicians in Washington made him a little restrained when he pushed to the 38th parallel. He did not hope that he would also follow in the footsteps of General MacArthur.  However, General Van Fleet also seems to be very keen on being arbitrary. When the United Nations forces are fighting smoothly, he will not care about the random slanders of those congressmen and politicians.  Since the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Army has the attitude of not withdrawing the troops until the end of the fight, why would he, the commander, not do so?

    Paul and General Almonte quickly formulated a plan to advance northward with a sure chance of victory. With the U.S. 7th Division as the vanguard, they would use the rapid movements of wheels and tanks to penetrate deep into the opponent's territory along the northern road, and be able to attack the opponent.  Hit as far as you can, just to overtake those Chinese who are running on their own feet and push them behind.  While the U.S. Seventh Division was advancing, the Second Division of the Tenth Army, the Dutch Battalion, the French Battalion, and the Korean Fifth Division under its command followed closely and advanced northward, because the combat capabilities of these units varied.  Qi, especially the Korean troops, were simply holding back, so in order to prevent these Koreans from suddenly breaking up and disrupting the formation of other troops, Paul and Commander Almonte placed this division at the end.  noodle.  After these arrangements were completed, Paul, as the coordinator of the Eighth Army, contacted the U.S. Ninth Army to the west and requested the Ninth Army to send the U.S. 24th Division to coordinate with the Seventh Division to advance northward.  In order to prevent the situation of a lone army going deep, the 7th Division was besieged by numerous Chinese and North Korean coalition forces.

    After all, this was the first time for such a large-scale pursuit. Paul, including Paul, was still a little worried, so they were still a little cautious in their plan, just to wait for the division of the U.S. Ninth Army and the U.S. Seventh Division in vain.  They waited for a day in Yongshan north of Chuncheon, otherwise they would have reached Hwachuan by this time and cut off the entire 72nd Army of the Volunteer Army south of Hwachuan.

    The operation started quickly. The 7th Division advanced very quickly. Although it was blocked by some unknown CCP troops along the way, with the superior military strength and the cover of ground and air firepower, this long steel dragon seemed to fly.  Similarly, it took half a day to reach Mingyue Mountain next to the Bukhan River Highway Bridge. Here they encountered stubborn resistance from the opponent, and the battle was extremely fierce. The commander of the 7th Division called several times to complain, because the opponent occupied a natural barrier.  It was not easy for them to rush through the terrain with their superior strength and firepower, not to mention that the road bridge was blown up.

    Paul immediately judged that the 7th Division had already encountered the opponent's rear-cutting troops, which meant that if they pursued it further north, they would have unexpected gains.  At that moment, the deputy chief of staff ordered the leading division commander not to fight with the enemy at Mingyue Mountain, but to build a bridge downstream to bypass the enemy, and asked them to rush to Yuanpingri and Xinpu before dark.  In the area, there is an intersection. As long as it is blocked, it is possible to completely surround this backward enemy force.

    While watching the actions of the Seventh Division, Paul also watched the advancement speed of the 24th Division of the Ninth Army, requiring this division and the Seventh Division to cover each other.  The US 24th Division set out from Gapyeong City and pushed north from Mudong-ri along another road to the west of Huayue Mountain, hoping to join forces with the 7th Division in the Guangdeli and Shicangli areas.  At this time, the 24th Division had also passed through Mudongli and encountered a Chinese force in Daodali, which was in the midst of a fierce battle.

    Paul carefully observed the map. From the reports of the 7th Division and the 24th Division, it could be seen that in the area from the Bukhan River to the west to Jishan-ri, the opponent obviously had two troops fighting side by side at the same time.  , as long as these two forces are separated, it will be possible to complete the encirclement of the enemy force to the east!  When he thought of this, Paul couldn't help but get excited, and once again answered the phone of the 24th Division of the US Army.

    To Zhang Xian's expectation, when they were preparing to evacuate the small village, Wu Xiaoyang actually found a dozen surviving members of the 643rd Regiment in a cave outside the village. These people were killed when the battle started.  When Chen Daxing led people as a cover, they ran out from behind the village. They accidentally discovered this small cave and have been hiding here.  This cave must have been dug by local people to store things. The entrance to the cave was very hidden, and the front was covered with long thatch. If they hadn't heard the voice speaking Chinese coming from outside the cave, they knew it was one of their own, so they  If he shows up, Wu Xiaoyang won't be able to find him even if he searches for a whole day.

    These dozen people were all injured. Zhang Xian saw his brother-in-law Tian Zhuangzhuang among them at a glance. Tian Zhuangzhuang¡¯s head was wrapped with a piece of cloth.He stood up to share the heavy responsibilities between the two of them. He nodded immediately and said, "That's fine. We'll be relieved when we meet the political commissar at Beihuiling!" As he said this, he thought of something else and said:  "It's just that Minister Song was engaged in intelligence work before, and he has never commanded a war. I'm afraid he is not good at it!"

    "Haha, it doesn't matter whether it works or not, as long as he knows every decision we make!" Zhang Xian said quietly: "If something really happens in the future, he can also be a witness!"

    Lu Fan then understood Zhang Xian's intention, but he didn't take it seriously. Yu Deshui was too cautious. As long as he could lead the 215th Division to successfully complete the mission, there was nothing to worry about.

    "By the way, although Deputy Commander Cao was also injured, he can also give us advice!" Zhang Xian thought again.

    Lu Fan thought for a while and nodded. At this time, three cobblers can stand up to one Zhuge Liang. He only hopes that everyone's wisdom can work together to guide everyone through the difficulties.

    "By the way, have you contacted the June 44th Regiment and the June 45th Regiment again?" Zhang Xian then asked the question he was most concerned about.

    "Contacted!" Lu Fan nodded and told him at the same time: "The 644th Regiment encountered the enemy's pursuers at Mingyue Mountain. They fought hard, but they still pushed back the enemy!"

    "Oh?" Zhang Xian couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked hurriedly: "Didn't those enemies organize another attack?"

    "No!" Lu Fan said.

    Zhang Xian felt something was wrong and asked again: "What about the Jiguanshan position of the 645th Regiment?"

    "The 645th Regiment was also attacked by the enemy at the beginning, but their battle was smaller. They only fought a small battle, and the enemies withdrew!"

    "It's strange, isn't the enemy planning to cross the 38th parallel? Isn't he going to chase us?" Zhang Xian said to himself.

    Lu Fan added: "I also contacted Commander Xiong, and he told me that the 214th Division had arrived on the right wing of our division and encountered a powerful enemy in the west. The enemy was advancing very quickly. At this time  They are in the middle of a fierce battle!¡±

    "Hurry up and take out the map!" Zhang Xian said as he and Lu Fan hurriedly spread out the map and looked at the two black lines marked on the map. They were two northbound highways and one  One leads from Chuncheon to Geumhwa, and the other leads from Gapyeong to Geumhwa. There is only a distance of 20 kilometers between these two roads. In fact, they are sandwiched by a continuous mountain range.

    Looking at the map, Zhang Xian felt a rare panic for some reason. He suddenly understood something and immediately said to Lu Fan: "Commissioner Lu, the 644th and 645th regiments are going to evacuate overnight."  Mingyue Mountain and Jiguan Mountain, retreat to Beihuiling!"

    "Why?" Lu Fan looked confused: "Our mission hasn't been completed yet?"

    "Can't wait any longer!" Zhang Xian said decisively: "If we don't retreat immediately tonight, I'm afraid we won't have a chance to retreat tomorrow! It's obvious that the enemy is pursuing troops from two directions, and their troops to the west are advancing.  , it is impossible for the troops on the east side to stop. They have not passed Mingyue Mountain and Jiguan Mountain. There is only one possibility, that is, they do not want to waste time with us, but find another way to cross the Beihan River and bypass the highway bridge!"
