Chapter 900 A strange combination of circumstances

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    A regiment of three thousand men managed to withstand the attack of half a Japanese regiment.

    That regiment was decided by Nakamura after a fierce ideological struggle: since the war began, his regiment had neither successfully stopped the retreat of the 7th and 8th Divisions of the People's Army, nor eliminated the artillery regiment.  The follow-up troops' pursuit cleared the obstacles, but failed to break through the Imjin River, causing turmoil in the People's Army's defense line.

    Now that we have arrived at the Jinhua battlefield, if we just watch the defeat of the Gumi Brigade like this - with a small number of enemies and many enemies, facing the powerful Chinese army, I am afraid that he is no match - it will be difficult to explain in every aspect.  .

    This is how the Eighth Regiment, which has always been known for its "combat cunning", has the rare opportunity to join the battle group with all its strength.  In fact, Nakamura's timing was also very good. He "brazenly" joined when the two teams were seriously injured.

    Although hand-to-hand combat involves skills, most of it is considered physical work.  No matter how brave you are, if several people join forces to fight you, even if you are a hero in a martial arts novel, it will be difficult for you to resist a well-trained army.  So when the 8th Regiment joined, the battle quickly turned in the favor of the Japanese.

    Fortunately, the terrain here is not open. Although the Japanese army has a large number of people, it is unable to form an advantage in specific operations with more troops fighting fewer troops.  But with close to one-to-one consumption, it is only a matter of time before the entire group is killed.

    At this critical moment, Nakamura suddenly issued a retreat order.  Although the people who were fighting fiercely didn't know what was going on, the Japanese army quickly left the battle due to military orders.  Dong Shengtang was breathing heavily - he had also gone into battle in person and was about to die for his country right here.

    At this time, there is no need to worry about any treacherous plots of the Japanese army: based on experience, it will not happen, otherwise as long as the fight continues like this, there will be no problem with the Japanese army's victory.  Regarding their retreat, he had a feeling of being saved from a desperate situation, and he also thought that a big change must have occurred.

    Gumi asked Nakamura angrily: "Nakamura-kun! Why do you have to retreat?!" The 8th Regiment is the main force. If they withdraw, this battle will no longer need to be fought.  However, with victory clearly within reach, why did Nakamura suddenly decide to retreat and do so in such a hurry?

    Nakamura was very confident this time: "General, my scouts reported that a large Chinese army appeared on my right wing, less than five miles away from here. Its designation is the 2nd Army, which should be the one who left Huachuanli.  Troops. We are out of ammunition and food. There is really no need to die."

    Gumi didn¡¯t believe it: ¡°This place is separated by the Bukhan River and Mount Kumgang. Did the Chinese army fly over? And they know how to calculate, do they know that we are fighting with bayonets here?!¡±

    It¡¯s not someone who flew over, but someone who ran over; it¡¯s someone who doesn¡¯t know how to calculate, but Song Jiuling, commander of the 2nd Army, who knows how to calculate.

    As a veteran who has followed Zhang Hanqing for many years, Song Jiuling is fully capable of standing alone. Before the war, he had served as the deputy commander of the Lanzhou Military Region. If it were not for the fact that as the commander, Yu Zhen had a higher seniority in the Feng army and was once his own  Zhang Hanqing, who was the superior of the Guards Brigade when he started, would replace him without hesitation.

    After entering North Korea, the 2nd Army, which served as the fist of eastern North Korea, has broken through Mount Kumgang on the east coast and partially entered the territory of Mount Seorak.  If not for Ji Xing's sudden arrival, Song Jiuling would not have ordered to stop the advance to Zhaoyang River.

    The attack to the north bank of the Soyang River, together with the Bukhan River, formed a north-south boundary in central Korea. This was the strategic decision of the Chaosi, and it was also a brilliant move by a group of military bigwigs such as Marshal Zhang Hanqing and Defense Minister Jiang Baili. Both politically and  They are of great military value.  The 3rd Army heard that it had broken through the Han River. If the two armies met at the North Han River, the Korean War would basically be over.

    But Jixing came and told him a shocking result: the entire 3rd Army was wiped out!

    Song Jiuling took the map. Although he generally had an ominous premonition, but after paying close attention to the battle route between the two armies, he still asked angrily: "How did you end up in such a great situation?"

    It¡¯s like playing chess, if you make one careless move, you will lose everything.  The Japanese army should have been in a hurry, but now it has asked the People's Army of all stripes to mend the holes. How can it not be very angry?

    And the situation is very serious: if the Linjin River is lost, it is equivalent to letting the enemy go straight to your weak belly; if Jinhua is lost, there will be no danger to defend for hundreds of miles behind, which will be great fun.  The Japanese army can launch feints in several directions, enough to make more than three or five troops restless.

    ??The Imjin River is beyond our reach, so we can¡¯t control so much now. I guess the court will make arrangements, right?  Jinchuan, which is closest to me, must help defend it no matter what, at least a piece of it.  Therefore, Song Jiuling urgently telegraphed the enemy's situation to his commander, and ordered the nearest 4th Division to turn west, swim lightly across the Beihan River, and advance towards Jinhua.

    The unit detected by Nakamura was the vanguard of the 4th Division. Fortunately, he lacked ammunition and took the initiative to avoid it, leaving the already exhausted and uncarried troops behind.The firepower of the 4th Division was approaching Jinhua City safely.

    The heroic scene in front of you is unforgettable: everywhere you look, there are broken walls and ruins; everywhere you touch, there are ditches with corpses of wounded soldiers.

    After learning about the situation of the Japanese army, the 4th Division decided to conduct a tentative attack. As a result, the two teams of Nakamura and Gumi ran all the way, crossing the Hwachuan River without entering, and fled to Chuncheon, the important town at the junction of Soyang River and Bukhan River, with  The first unit of the 20th Regiment of the Japanese 4th Division, which had already heard the news and responded, met up and stabilized after receiving supplies.

    This unexpected battle allowed the Second Army to calmly control a large area north of the Soyang River. Not only did it achieve its previous strategic goals, it also made progress in central Korea, restraining the Japanese troops in Seoul from moving too far toward Linlin.  Jinjiang increased troops.

    It was then that we learned that the main force of the 100th Division had arrived at the Imjin River and was holding on to the line of defense with the two remaining divisions of the 3rd Army.  In this way, the People's Army's defense line was re-formed with Panmunjeom, Shintan, and Jinhua as the main axes, while the Japanese army deployed defenses along the Han River, Bukhan River, and Soyang River with Seoul and Chuncheon as the main axes.

    Both sides formed a posture of mobilizing troops on each other's left side. In fact, neither side was able to go further, and the situation has gradually stabilized.

    On the contrary, fierce fighting is going on in the east and west Korea Bay rear areas, but the two sides facing each other can't control this for the time being.  However, because the Japanese opponents are the elite 27th and 29th armies of the People's Army, even if there are two divisions on both sides, they will not take advantage at all. But fortunately, behind them is the dominant Japanese navy and a steady stream of maritime forces.  Supplies, it is not easy for the People's Army to drive them into the sea.

    ??From the conflict between China and Japan in Huichun on August 1 to the present, the Japanese army has lost troops and territory in less than three months, which has shocked all parties.  In addition to the 4 divisions that were completely annihilated or mainly annihilated, the Japanese army has invested 7 army divisions in North Korea, accounting for most of the 17 divisions.

    The prospect of a continuing stalemate in the war made the Japanese General Staff Headquarters feel the need to step up its efforts.  They plan to expand the army in accordance with the requirements of the armament outline, that is, add 100 to the numbers of the original 20 divisions, and create 20 new divisions to be put into the Korean battlefield.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
