"Wei Yong, what are the casualties of your regiment?"
Wei Yong, the chief of staff of the First Regiment. Jin Hu was temporarily sent to the rear by helicopter for treatment due to his injury. According to the army regulations, he will now be responsible for everything in the First Regiment.
"Reporting to the division's seat, a regiment should have 2,753 soldiers. There are currently 812 soldiers, and 1,941 have died in battle.
Nearly half of the remaining 812 soldiers were injured! "
When Wei Yong said this, there was unconcealable sadness on his face.
The First Regiment was originally the most elite mountain regiment among the mountain troops, and it was also one of the earliest mountain regiments to be formed.
As a result, during the battle last night, they faced an attack several times larger than that of their own Citizen Army. Within a few hours, one group was beaten to the point of losing its combat effectiveness.
There were more than 2,700 people in the group, but in the end only more than 800 people survived, and even their leader Jin Hu was injured.
From this we can see how fierce the battle last night was, and how fierce the Citi Army's attack was.
Li Chengzhi was also a little heartbroken. The first regiment was the most powerful regiment under his command, but he did not expect that the attack last night would wipe out this regiment.
"Don't be heartbroken! Believe me, the regiment can be reorganized. You can take the troops down to rest and wait for orders from the headquarters!"
Li Chengzhi patted Wei Yong on the shoulder and said.
"yes!"
Wei Yong went down, but the battle was still going on.
But this time Li Chengzhi was no longer passively defensive. He immediately began to deploy new combat orders.
"Pass my order. The third regiment will block the enemy on the left flank and the front. The second regiment will attack the Citi Army from the right wing. Cooperate with the second and third divisions to capture the enemy on the right flank of our army."
Although there are only two regiments left in the First Mountain Division, there are still the Second and Third Mountain Divisions at the foot of the mountain to support the First Division. In fact, there are still three divisions of Chinese troops here.
So Li Chengzhi decided to attack according to the original plan, tearing apart the Citizen defense line step by step, and then occupy Galio.
The Second Regiment began to attack, and the Second and Third Mountain Divisions down the mountain also began to attack.
The Citi Army was immediately overwhelmed by the Chinese army that suddenly launched a counterattack.
"Mr. Major General, the reinforcements of the Chinese army have arrived at the position and are currently blocking our army's attack on their left wing. They are also attacking the right wing with the support of the Chinese army at the foot of the mountain.
The situation of our army is not very good. We fought all night last night and now the soldiers are very tired. "
A staff officer stood in front of Flake and told him about the current situation of Citigroup.
Fleck walked over and over in his headquarters, his heart was already confused. He didn't expect that the worst outcome would happen.
His troops failed to capture the position before the Chinese reinforcements arrived, but instead plunged themselves into a huge crisis.
The Chinese troops at the foot of the mountain cooperated with the Chinese troops on the mountain to launch a counterattack against them.
"Push our troops up. No matter how heavy the losses are, we must hold on! At the same time, send a message to General Bradley and inform him of our situation here."
Fleck had no choice but to make the decision to press the entire army.
Port Moresby, Bradley Command
"General Bradley, China has begun a counterattack. Their reinforcements have arrived. The situation in Fleck is very bad now. Maybe we need to make a decision early!"
Lake handed a telegram to Bradley with a serious face.
Bradley took the telegram and put it on the table without reading it. Instead, he turned his attention to the map, focusing on the Galio area.
"If we give up Galio, it will be equivalent to giving up the general island of Papua Guinea. And China's advantage in Papua Guinea can be determined.
The possibility of our army losing Papua Guinea will greatly increase. But if Galio is not given up, can Fleck hold on? "
Bradley was also confused. He didn¡¯t know what the final result of sticking to Galio would be. If you hold on, that's fine. But if he fails to hold on, his losses will be great.
"General Bradley, maybe we should hold on!"
Lake said standing next to Bradley.
"Why?"
"The will is almost ready to completely capture the mainland of Ying. This is our chance!"
Lake looked and turned to look at himselfBradley spoke his mind.
Bradley understood what he meant. Once the British mainland fell, Citigroup's energy could be transferred to the Pacific battlefield.
By then, they will be able to get a steady stream of reinforcements, whether it is land aviation, army, or navy, they can get reinforcements.
As long as you hold on now, you will still have opportunities in the future. If you give up now, your chances in the future will be slim.
Bradley pursed his lips, and after a few minutes he said in a deep voice: "Assemble three infantry divisions from behind and tell Fleck that I have put all my hopes on him. Don't let me down. We must keep Galio. As long as we keep Galio, we still have hope!"
"yes!"
Bradley¡¯s order was passed on, and the three Citi Army infantry divisions near Jaya Peak began to move to Gallio, but they were still on the way, and it would take some time to reach Gallio.
But the war in Galio is still ongoing.
The Citi Army has been fighting all night and is very tired. Now it suddenly suffered a fierce attack from China. It suddenly felt that it was very difficult to maintain the current position.
If Flake hadn¡¯t sent out all his troops to suppress them, I¡¯m afraid Li Chengzhi¡¯s Citi Army on the right would have collapsed.
But even so, the Citi Army fought very hard.
Time passed by minute by minute, and a new round of air battle in the sky began again.
China Airlines and Citigroup Airlines each took off more than 2,000 aircraft to engage in battle over Galio.
They all want to gain air superiority and support their own ground forces.
The sky was filled with white umbrella flowers floating everywhere, and planes were shot down one after another. The war on the ground was also fierce.
The duel between artillery and artillery, the duel between infantry and infantry.
Time slowly reached noon, and at this time, the long-term battle also brought the Citi Army to its limit.
It was at this time that the Fourth Mountain Division arrived at the location of the First Mountain Division from a distance. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
