Join the top ace army at the beginning of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea

When He Daming heard the news, he immediately understood the intention of the US Joint Forces.

"Commander, being abandoned doesn't mean it can't be used. I think that along this Highway 87, we can completely bypass Gaotai Mountain and Zhongzi Mountain and face Cheorwon directly. This is not a good thing.

I now seriously suspect that the fundamental reason why the firepower of the US Joint Forces was greatly reduced today is that they also found the shortcut of Highway 87 and are repairing it, preparing to use tanks and other armored forces to directly detour from here to the area north of the Iron Plain.

By then, our friendly forces, the 63rd Army, will have to face the armored forces of the United States Army, which is not the result we want to see."

Army Commander Wen Cheng and the other two division commanders all agreed with He Daming's guess.

"Captain He, if that's the case, then I'll order your 120th Division to be in charge of this investigation and blocking mission. Send someone to investigate this Highway 87 to see if the U.S. Joint Forces are as you expected."

After receiving the order from the military, He Daming immediately went to the garrison of the 358th Regiment and found the head of the 358th Regiment, Chu Yun.

Seeing He Daming coming, Chu Yun took the initiative to greet him.

"Commander, why are you here?"

He Daming smiled slightly.

"Captain Chu, I have a mission for your 358th Regiment."

Chu Yun became interested instantly when he heard what He Daming said.

"Commander, what's the mission?"

He Daming: "Chu Yun, I now order your 358th Regiment to rush to Highway 87 to find out the specific details of this highway and see if the US Joint Forces will attack Cheorwon from here."

After receiving He Daming's order, Chu Yun immediately said,

"Yes, Commander, I will ensure that the mission is completed."

Chu Yun then led the 358th Regiment and directly entered Highway 87, conducting an investigation along the highway.

Along the way, they discovered that although many parts of Highway 87 had collapsed or even been damaged, the overall road framework was still there and could be put into use after a little repair.

They also found a huge reservoir near Highway 87, which was filled with river water, which seemed to be a point that could be used.

And according to the battle reports brought back from the front line by the scouts they sent out.

They found the United States Army repairing the highway on the lower section of Highway 87.

After receiving the news, Chu Yun immediately led the 358th Regiment to withdraw from Highway 87, but he left an extra battalion of troops to be deployed at the dam near the highway.

After Chu Yun returned to the base, he immediately went to the division headquarters to report the specific situation to the division commander He Daming.

When He Daming saw Chu Yun coming back, he took the lead in asking,

"Captain Chu, you're back so soon. How is it going? What have you gained or discovered?"

In response to He Daming's questions, Chu Yun immediately told He Daming, Political Commissar Zhang Tang and others everything he knew.

He Daming was surprised and happy when he heard the news. He was surprised that the US Joint Forces were preparing to take an unconventional approach and play a shady trick just as he expected.

The good news is that there is a large reservoir near Highway 87, and it is full of water. This is good news. When the time comes, he can imitate Guan Yu in the Three Kingdoms period and flood the seven armies.

Thinking of this, He Daming immediately ordered Chu Yun,

"Captain Chu, if you do this, the United States Army will definitely send an armored regiment to clear the way after repairing Highway 87. Then you will......"

Chu Yun nodded repeatedly when he heard He Daming's plan.

"Okay, Commander, I understand. Don't worry, I will complete the mission successfully."

At this time, Van Fleet didn't know that his little trick had been seen through by the volunteers.

That night, Chief of Staff Bird immediately found Commander Van Fleet.

"Commander, Highway 87 has been repaired and is fully operational."

When Van Fleet heard the news, he was so happy.

"Okay, Bird, let's do this. Tomorrow we will send an armored regiment as a vanguard to break through directly from Highway 1 to the northern part of the Cheorwon Plain. After the gap is opened, most of our coalition forces will follow closely behind."

When Bird heard Van Fleet's instructions, he immediately said,

"Okay, Commander, I'll do it right away."

The next day, the 200st Armored Regiment, equipped with a total of 87 tanks of various types, began moving towards the target location along Highway .

When they were halfway through the move, Richard, then commander of the 1st Armored Regiment, was a little proud.

He felt that when their armored regiment successfully reached the Iron Plain, it would be the time for their tanks to shine, but the idea was beautiful and the reality was cruel.

When their armored regiment had marched two-thirds of the way.

The 358th Regiment, located above the highway, discovered the movements of the US Joint Forces Armored Regiment.

They were not in a hurry to blow up the reservoir, but were waiting until all the US Joint Forces armored regiments gathered near this location before blowing up the reservoir.

At this time, Richard, the commander of the 1st Armored Regiment, did not know that he was getting closer and closer to death.

Just as their more than 200 tanks were moving in a shape of 1 on Highway 87.

The commander of the 358th Regiment, Chu Yun, felt that the time had come and immediately ordered the reservoir to be blown up.

With a loud "bang", the reservoir was blown up, and a large amount of river water poured down towards Highway 87 like a flood.

Richard, the commander of the 1st Armored Regiment, who had not reacted at all at this time, suddenly heard an explosion from a distance. When he looked up, he saw the river water rushing towards him.

He couldn't run away even if he wanted to at this time.

Soon, the entire stretch of Route 87 was flooded with these tanks.

As the river water poured down, it instantly submerged the entire road. The more than a thousand American soldiers from the armored regiment became fish and shrimp in the water. Those who could swim a little swam up, but most of them became underwater dead souls.

However, before the American soldiers who surfaced had time to breathe a breath of fresh air, they were shot by the 358th Regiment on high ground, and were all shot dead on the water.

Commander Van Fleet in the rear was stunned when he learned that his 1st Armored Regiment had been destroyed.

He couldn't believe the authenticity of the news at all. He repeatedly asked Chief of Staff Bird,

"Bird, is this true? No! This must be fake. How could the Volunteer Army know our army's movements? This is an entire armored regiment!"
