Refuse to join the Wansui Army, I will build an ace division

As our army retreated to the 38th parallel, the United Nations forces arrived in Hancheng unimpeded.

After several months, MacArthur returned here again and was extremely excited.

"Damn you Dragon people, you didn't expect me to come back again!"

In a good mood, he took out his pipe and took two puffs.

Through the hazy smoke, he seemed to see the Dragon Army fleeing in panic.

Suddenly, the corner of MacArthur's mouth twisted.

"General!"

At this moment, his secretary hurried over.

"What happened?!"

MacArthur was somewhat displeased at being interrupted.

"Li Chengwan is back!"

MacArthur was furious, "He won't eat the sour radish, bring him here!"

Soon, Li Chengwan came to him.

"Didn't I tell you to continue chasing the Dragon Nation army northward? Who allowed you to come back?!"

He slapped Li Chengwan on the face.

Li Chengwan's left cheek was swollen. As the highest leader of the Southern Dynasty, he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction at this moment.

"General, it was General Ridgway who asked me to come back."

"Likeway?!"

Hearing this, MacArthur became even more annoyed.

"Snapped!"

Another heavy slap, and Li Chengwan's right face began to swell.

"I am the supreme commander, who is he!"

MacArthur's face turned pale.

As soon as Li Qiwei took office, he recaptured Hancheng and Hengcheng, completely suppressing himself.

Not only that, he also heard a rumor circulating within the Allied Forces.

"General Ridgway is a better commander than MacArthur!"

Therefore, MacArthur developed a deep fear of Ridgway.

Now that he saw that Li Chengwan disobeyed him and turned to obey Ridgeway's arrangements, MacArthur even had the idea of ​​getting rid of Ridgeway.

"General Li Qiwei said that if our army pursues further, it will suffer heavy losses..."

Li Chengwan said stutteringly.

Whether it was MacArthur or Li Chengwan, they were people he could not afford to offend.

The only difference is the eldest dad and the second dad.

"This coward!"

MacArthur's face turned pale. "The legend of the Dragon Army's invincibility has been broken. What are you afraid to chase?!"

Faced with MacArthur's harsh scolding, Li Chengwan remained submissive and dared not say a word.

Eventually, word of this matter reached Li Qiwei's ears.

"This MacArthur is so stupid."

A hint of disappointment appeared on Li Qiwei's face.

After working with this boss for several months, he found that MacArthur was not only brainless but also extremely arrogant.

If I allow this person to command the battle, I am afraid that the situation I have worked so hard to create will be destroyed.

Unable to bear it any longer, Li Qiwei picked up the phone and called Bai Gong, "Sir, I think General MacArthur is really not suitable to continue to serve as the commander-in-chief..."

After receiving Li Qiwei's call, Bai Gong immediately started a discussion.

Compared with Ridgway's brilliant military achievements, the three battles commanded by MacArthur all ended in failure.

This man has brought too much damage to the country and is totally unworthy of his worth.

In addition, the coalition forces also had complaints about MacArthur.

Finally, on April 4, the White House announced that MacArthur would be relieved of all his duties and replaced by the commander of the Eighth Army, David Ridgwell, and Van Fleet would take over as the commander of the 11th Group.

This man shared the same tactical ideas with Ridgway. He liked the "sea of ​​fire tactics" proposed by Ridgway very much and was keen to invest huge amounts of ammunition to pave the way regardless of cost.

Van Fleet once declared: There is no position that cannot be blown up by ten thousand bombs. This shows how cruel this man is.

After taking office, Li Qiwei decided to steadily advance to the northern part of the peninsula without expanding the scope of the war. After occupying an advantageous position, he would either conduct diplomatic negotiations with us or continue military operations to maintain the international status of the Eagle Sauce.

at the same time.

At the temporary command center, all cadres of the 40th Army at the deputy division level and above gathered together.

Li Xiangyang is the only exception and is also included.

"Comrades, our 40th Army fought beautifully in this battle, and the Zhisi also gave us high praise!"

Wen Cheng said loudly.

Everyone looked at each other in silence for a long time.

Li Xiangyang noticed that many people's seats were empty.

Thinking of those familiar faces, he suddenly felt a little sad.

The 40th Army lost nearly 8000 people, among which the 118th Division suffered the heaviest casualties as it served as the main force. Of the more than 354 people in its 5000th Regiment, only more than 2300 survived.

In comparison, the 40th Army suffered relatively light losses.

It is obvious that our army suffered heavy casualties this time.

Not only Li Xiangyang, but other cadres of the 40th Army also looked grief-stricken.

They had gone through the difficult years of the War of Resistance against Japan together and had experienced the flames of war, and their friendship was real comradeship.

Today, many people stay in this land forever.

Wen Cheng took in everyone's reactions and his heart skipped a beat.

As the commander of the 40th Army, how could he not be sad?

However, as the leader of an army, he had to suppress the pain deep in his heart.

If he collapses, the army will have no morale at all.

"Comrades, let us pay tribute to our fallen comrades!"

Wen Cheng was the first to stand up and raised his hand.

"crash"

Everyone stood up and saluted towards the south.

There, their comrades are buried.

"Comrades, I know you are sad, but the war is not over yet. The country still needs us, and the people still need us!"

After the ceremony, Wen Cheng continued.

He looked at everyone and said in a sonorous and powerful tone, "The various types of support weapons promised by the Soviet Union are being dispatched, and a large number of follow-up troops are also rushing to the front line from the country."

After hearing this, everyone's expressions finally eased a lot.

By now the armies were completely exhausted. If they didn't get any reinforcements, they would have to fight with stones in their hands.

For this purpose, the commander returned to the country on February 2 and attended the meeting.

The main leaders of all military regions, arms, and departments were all present. The commander slammed the table and said, "There are no soldiers or supplies on the peninsula. How can we fight this war?!"

Finally, the leader made a promise, "This year, each military region in the country will only keep the most basic needs, and the rest will be sent to the front line!"

Not only that, ordinary people across the country are also making selfless contributions to the front lines, and every household is doing their utmost to support the fighters on the front lines.

Seeing that our army had won four battles, the Soviet Union finally agreed to provide weapons assistance.

With the Soviet Union purchasing a large number of weapons, our army was able to fill the gap in heavy firepower with the enemy.

"Weapons and manpower will be delivered to our army soon. What we need to discuss now is the next strategic deployment."

Wen Cheng said.
