Join the top ace army at the beginning of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea
Chapter 19 The Second Counterattack Begins
That night, the entire 358th Regiment was filled with laughter and joy. This was also the first meat meal they had after arriving in this foreign country a month ago.
Of course, such treatment is thanks to their regiment commander He Daming and political commissar Yu Chengguang.
.....................................
A day later, the US Joint Forces had pushed the front line to the Junouli area and began to attack the garrison of the 358th Regiment.
He Daming kept in mind the task assigned by the division commander and put up a symbolic resistance before leading the 358th Regiment in an orderly manner towards Kaesong City.
At this time, the elite US 358th Army was chasing closely behind He Daming's 9th Regiment. An army was chasing a regiment, which was an extremely rare behavior in the entire North Korean battlefield.
At this time, the commander of the 9th U.S. Army, Moore, was looking through a telescope at the volunteers fleeing northward one after another. He fell into deep thought and asked the chief of staff Bird beside him,
"Bird, what do you think is going on? They escaped without putting up any resistance? This is totally inconsistent with the reports from the soldiers who escaped from the 1st Cavalry Division.
Aren't these volunteers famous for being the best at fighting positions and siege battles? How come they are so vulnerable? Is there an ambush on the other side?"
When Chief of Staff Bird heard what Commander Moore said, he immediately expressed his assumptions and conjectures.
"Commander, I don't think that's the reason. I guess these volunteers are just a small force.
You have to know that we have dispatched a total of 25 troops this time, and our 9th Army alone has more than 7 people. How can they not be afraid and run away?
Besides, all conspiracies and tricks are useless in the face of absolute strength."
When Army Commander Moore heard what Bird said, he thought it made a lot of sense, so he stopped thinking about it and commanded his three main divisions to continue moving towards Kaesong City.
At this time, the 358th Regiment where He Daming was located had successfully arrived at Kaesong City and joined up with most of the 120th Division.
They only symbolically fought with the US 9th Army in Kaesong City for a while, and then retreated again to Ningbian City in the north.
As for the 50th Army in Bochuan City, the 66th Army in Longshan Cave, and the 42nd Army in Ningyuan area, they all did the same thing as the 40th Division of the 120th Army, pretending to retreat and giving all the previously occupied areas to the US Joint Forces.
Of course, the purpose of doing this is to show weakness and make the US Joint Forces mistakenly believe that the Volunteer Army is vulnerable.
.........................
At this time, after seeing the latest battle report from the front line, the commander-in-chief of the United States Army, Mike Ash, immediately picked up his beloved little pipe, took two puffs, and laughed out loud.
"Hahaha... I knew that the Volunteer Army was just a bunch of paper tigers. It's only been less than half a month, and we have already recovered most of the lost territory. When we retake Yunshan City, I wonder what these guys will do."
......................
而此时处在西线的美第1军,美第9军以及南韩第2军团的各级指挥官们,都觉得之前美骑第1师和南韩第1师的落败只是偶然性。
Because they have been reporting various good news recently, although they have encountered various obstacles from the Volunteer Army, they were able to overcome them basically on their own. Now they are less than 10 kilometers away from Yunshan City, and the battle line has been restored to the time of the first battle. If they make a little more effort and capture Yunshan City, then these Volunteer Army will be cleared out of North Korea.
At this time, the US Joint Forces were filled with a frivolous atmosphere that the outcome was already decided and the Volunteer Army was vulnerable.
At this time, all the army commanders and political commissars were holding a meeting at the Zhisi Command Headquarters.
Zhisi feels that the time is ripe and it is time to launch a new round of closing-the-door and beating-the-dog tactics.
However, it was difficult to decide which unit would carry out the outermost breakthrough mission, because this unit had to tear open the US Joint Forces' front line as soon as possible, and then conduct tactical infiltration and division, which would test the unit's comprehensive strength and resilience.
At this time, the commander of the 38th Army, Liang Xingchu, volunteered to
"Let me go, let our 38th Army be responsible for this breakthrough mission. In the first battle, it was because of our negligence that the 1st Cavalry Division of the United States and the 1st Division of South Korea almost escaped.
Our 38th Army is willing to make up for the loss and take on this important breakthrough mission. Please believe in our 38th Army. I am willing to sign a military order here!
If I fail to complete this mission, please remove me from my position as army commander."
Faced with Liang Xingchu's lofty ambitions, Zhisi originally wanted to let the prudent 40th Army take charge, but since his 38th Army is willing, let them do it.
Immediately, the Zhisi side agreed to Liang Xingchu's request for combat.
However, in order to ensure the success of the second battle to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, the Zhisi secretly telegraphed Wen Cheng of the 40th Army after the meeting, asking him to send a division as a rangers to carry out tactical infiltration and assist the 38th Army in completing the breakthrough mission when appropriate.
After receiving this secret mission, the first thing Wen Cheng thought of was the extremely stable and meritorious 120th Division under his command.
After returning to the army command post, he immediately called Luo Sheng, the commander of the 120th Division, and entrusted him with the secret mission assigned by the headquarters.
“Commander Luo, this time your 120th Division is a special task force and its mission is of great significance.
This also indirectly shows that the Zhisi attaches great importance to our 40th Army. Your current task is to conduct tactical penetration as soon as possible after my 13th Corps launches a major counterattack on the western front, go around the enemy's rear, and assist the 38th Army in completing the breakthrough and closing tasks according to the situation on the battlefield. "
When Luo Sheng heard the task assigned by Wen Cheng, he was both happy and surprised. He immediately patted his chest and said,
"Commander, rest assured that our 120th Division will complete the mission successfully and will not let you down, nor will we embarrass our 40th Army."
When the army commander Wen Cheng heard what Luo Sheng said, he looked at him meaningfully and said lightly,
"Master Luo, it's up to you then."
.........................
After receiving this combat order, Luo Sheng immediately returned to the 120th Division's base and called the commanders and political commissars of the 358th, 359th, and 360th Regiments to the division's temporary command post.
After receiving the meeting notice, He Daming and Yu Chengguang went to the division command post for the meeting as soon as possible. At this time, He Daming knew that the counterattack was about to begin.
