After Wen Cheng returned to the 40th Army’s base, he convened a meeting of the entire army.

"In this battle, our army has two missions!"

Wen Cheng looked solemn as he said to the division commanders below: "One mission is to drive a 'wedge' with the strength of one division at Jiapingchuan, a key transportation point 60 kilometers behind enemy lines, to sever and block the enemy's horizontal connections and support; another mission is to occupy Mapingli with the strength of one division to cut off the 1st Milu Division."

Fighting deep behind enemy lines is like pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth, and is extremely dangerous.

"Chu Chuanyu, your 118th Division will still be the main force in this infiltration mission!"

Wen Cheng looked at Chu Chuanyu and gave the order.

"Yes!"

Chu Chuanyu was not afraid at all. He stood up and saluted.

The tradition of the 118th Division is to not be afraid of difficulties. The more difficult and dangerous the situation is, the more they must move forward.

Since entering North Korea, the 118th Division has been the vanguard in every battle and has always been the main force of the entire army.

And they also proved themselves with actual achievements.

After the meeting, Deng Yue called Chu Chuanyu.

"Deputy Commander, what's the matter?"

Chu Chuanyu asked doubtfully.

Deng Yue didn't say anything, but looked at Wen Cheng.

Wen Cheng smiled at Chu Chuanyu and said, "For this battle, Zhisi specially approved some more weapons and equipment for our army."

Hearing this, Chu Chuanyu's eyes widened, "Commander, do you really want to agree to that kid Li Xiangyang?!"

"It's too early to say whether you agree or not."

Wen Cheng waved his hand and said, "Since there is also a desire in this regard in the country, we are not violating the rules. What's more, it's just a small attempt."

As he said this, there was a gleam of wisdom in his eyes.

After hearing this, Chu Chuanyu nodded silently.

"Okay, don't tell that kid directly!"

Deng Yue laughed and said, "If he knew about this, he might cause trouble again!"

"Yes, Deputy Commander!"

Chu Chuanyu said loudly.

After returning to the 118th Division’s headquarters, Chu Chuanyu called together several regiment commanders.

"In this battle, our division should break through in the middle, advance 60 kilometers from Shangganling, and go straight to Jiaping to split and block the enemy. The 352nd and 354th Regiments should break through side by side, and the 353rd Regiment will serve as the division's reserve."

After explaining the task, Chu Chuanyu left Li Xiangyang alone.

"Commander, is there anything else you want to tell me?"

Li Xiangyang asked.

Chu Chuanyu stared at him for a while, then said leisurely, "Do you have any idea about the plan you mentioned last time?"

It had been too long since the last time, and Li Xiangyang was stunned at first, then he remembered.

"Yes, of course!"

Li Xiangyang said excitedly.

"Your regiment will be responsible for the main attack this time. I can provide you with some extra weapons and equipment."

Chu Chuanyu reminded: "But remember, don't make too much noise. The armored regiment and mechanized infantry regiment you mentioned are not allowed!"

"Why?!"

Li Xiangyang widened his eyes, puzzled.

Whether it is to form an armored regiment or a mechanized infantry regiment, it is a good way to improve combat effectiveness. Once it is effective and popularized in the military, the strength of our army will develop by leaps and bounds.

"Li Xiangyang, it doesn't mean that you can say whatever you want just because you have an idea and you are right!"

Chu Chuanyu looked at him deeply and said, "It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. Don't forget whose soldier you are!"

Li Xiangyang's pupils suddenly shrank.

He vaguely felt that there was another deeper meaning behind Chu Chuanyu's words.

"Okay, take the people to get the equipment back and get ready to go!"

Chu Chuanyu patted his shoulder and said.

On the way back, Li Xiangyang was in a mess.

He always felt that he was overthinking.

I am just a small group leader and will definitely not be in the eyes of those big shots.

After returning to the 354th Regiment, he ordered people to transport the equipment back.

"Five 5mm howitzers, ten self-propelled guns, fifty Type 155 mortars... these are all good stuff!"

As the deputy company commander of the artillery company, He Yuzhu led his men back to the base with a full load of equipment.

He caressed the weapons lovingly, his eyes shining with excitement.

Since entering North Korea, they have never fought such a prosperous war.

"Brother Yang, you are really good. You got so many fun things!"

He Yuzhu looked at Li Xiangyang with admiration.

Li Xiangyang forced a smile.

For some reason, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what it was.

"Suddenly there is so much equipment, and our company is a little short of manpower!"

He Yuzhu muttered.

Hearing this, Li Xiangyang's eyes widened suddenly.

He figured out what was going on!

"Brother Yang, what's wrong with you?"

He Yuzhu noticed that he looked very bad and asked with concern.

"It's alright. Let's get the comrades familiar with the equipment. We're going to fight again soon."

Li Xiangyang waved his hand.

If there is something, it’s better not to let He Yuzhu know.

After repeated meetings and studies, the Zhisi finally decided to launch a full-scale counterattack on April 4.

In this operation, our army deployed more than 90 troops, together with the North Korean People's Army, a total of more than 120 million people.

The army was divided into three routes. The 3rd Corps led by General Chen met the enemy head-on. General Yang and General Song commanded the 13th and 9th Corps respectively, and attacked from the left and right wings, intending to quickly tear through the Allied Forces' defense line.

In comparison, the total strength of the Allied Forces was only around 35.

120 million versus 35, our army has the advantage in numbers.

However, any discussion of military strength without taking into account firepower is just hooliganism.

In terms of firepower, the enemy is still in an absolutely overwhelming position.

But no matter what, this super-large-scale battle will go down in history.

On the 100-kilometer front, the total strength of both sides exceeded 100 million!

.......

On April 4, the US military once again crossed the 21th parallel.

But what is strange is that the Dragon Army, which had been blocking them for several months, disappeared without a trace.

The few battles that took place were all encounters below the company level.

Faced with this strange situation, Van Fleet ordered all troops to slow down their advance northward.

Moreover, he reported the matter to Li Qiwei.

After hearing this, Li Qiwei's expression became a little solemn.

According to reconnaissance, he learned that in the past half month, the Dragon Army had been supplemented by a considerable number of army-level units to the front line.

As a result, their material consumption will inevitably increase exponentially.

Since the enemy can launch large-scale operations, it must have stronger transportation capabilities.

Li Qiwei immediately ordered to increase the number of bombers and make every effort to destroy Longguo’s logistics supply lines.

As a result, under the enemy's frenzied bombing, our army lost nearly 1500 tons of food in just one night.

The defeat in the rear did not affect our army's progress.

On April 4, as the sun set, the 22th and 39th Armies set out first, responsible for cutting the enemy's east-west fronts, while the 40th and 20th Armies followed closely behind, responsible for closing the door and beating the dog.

The other armies set out last, responsible for infiltration and division.
