Back to the Republic of China to be a editor

Ten minutes before the conversation with Zhao Lantian, Chen Geng called Zeng Shaoguang: "Old Zeng, the 10th Army has reached its limit. Now Zhisi has two plans: one is to let you fight on, and the other is 12 The army will take a step back, and the 12th army will hold on for a while, and it is up to you to choose."

Zeng Shaoguang's answer was: "Commander Chen, don't you trust the 12th Army? Why didn't you fight? Judging from the past ten days, Van Fleet's hole card is nothing more than that. My opinion is to fight resolutely and let the 20th Army stay until the counterattack. Use it!"

After hearing Zeng Shaoguang's words, Zhao Lantian replied in a hoarse voice: "No. [-], please don't worry, I will be the company commander for the remaining one, and I will be the monitor for the remaining squad. As long as I, Cui Jiangong, are here, Guangyan Mountain will still belong to the Chinese People's Volunteers! "

……

July 6th night.

It has been 31 days since the end of the fifth campaign.The battle tonight will determine the final outcome of the Dongducheon defensive counterattack, and may also determine the overall situation of the Volunteer Army and the United Nations Army in the second half of 1951.In the combat situation center, except for Xu Shuai who had led a delegation to the Soviet Union for negotiations, the chairman, prime minister, Nie Shuai, and General Su were all present.

Chairman: "In the past, the U.S. military always thought that our Guangyan Mountain position was protruding from the front of their position. If we talk about the depth of a battle, it is not easy for our infantry and artillery to come to support in time. These small hills are easy to capture. The battalion can solve the battle! But this is not the case, the two sides have repeatedly fought over a few 'hills that are easy to occupy'. After 10 days, they have not gnawed down. The US military always overestimates itself."

Prime Minister: "It's not that they didn't take down any of them. They did occupy four peaks in Guangyan Mountain, and four in Ganyue Mountain. But occupying the peaks is worse than not occupying them. They are reluctant to come down, and they will not be able to come down. "

Su Yu also gave a rare smile. The blocking of the 12th Army and the 60th Army was planned by him and Mr. Peng. During the 10 days of fighting, the 60th Army was okay because it had not been attacked in the first 5 days. It's exhausting now.But fortunately, the sacrifice of the 12th Army will soon be exchanged for results.

"The 12th Army made great contributions to this battle. As the defensive side, our artillery unit also performed very well in the battle. Although our side does not have the advantage in the number of artillery fire, we only need to take our If the artillery shells hit the precise location where they should be fired, they can disintegrate or seriously set back the attack of the US military....Chairman, the campaign has reached a turning point.”

The chairman nodded and took out his pocket watch to see if it was time for the general counterattack from the front line. After thinking for a while, he took out another cigarette from the cigarette case.When lighting a cigarette, the chairman looked at the entrance of the center and laughed:

"The little baby in Tang Hua's family seems to be asleep, so he's coming over now."

Chapter 167, Let the U.S. military be out of breath for three months

Tang Hua didn't expect to be discovered by the chairman when he was 10 meters away from the combat situation center, so he raised his hand first to say hello.

"Staff Chen, let me take care of the transmitter, I'm quick." Entering the room, Tang Hua said to the staff officer who operated the T51 computer and was in charge of communication and transmission.

Prime Minister: "Tang Hua, in fact, we should not issue too many orders tonight, just watch Zhisi's real-time battle report."

Tang Hua now seems to be an anxious viewer who skipped the content of the middle episode of the TV series and opened the last episode directly to watch the finale.Even if Tang Hua has read the script, whether the battle will be performed according to the script is still a big variable.

By the afternoon of June 6, the attacking UN forces had suffered heavy losses but did make slight progress.The 25nd Division of the South Korean Army had lost its combat effectiveness and was carried away. The 2nd Meibu Division went up to the west of Ganyue Mountain A, and the 2rd Meibu Division went up to Guangyan Mountain A. The U.S. troops occupied the first level of the mountain in both directions. But the casualties paid for this were not small.After all A's of the 3nd and 2rd divisions of Meibu went up, on June 3, Van Fleet ordered the two regiments of the 6th division of Meibu, which were on standby in Namyangju, to move forward to Yangju, and build a defense line with the Turkish brigade to protect their distribution in Yangzhou. More than 22 artillery battalions of Yangju-Uijeongbu.

Behind the first-line unit of the United Nations Army is the 29st American Cavalry Division stationed in Seoul and the British [-]th Brigade in Goyang City, west of Seoul.

Su Yu was deeply involved in the volunteer army's counterattack plan, and the routes taken by each unit were weird.

The participating troops of the first counterattack route are the 50th Army, the 21nd Tank Division, and the 25st Artillery Division. This heavy army group with armored troops and rocket launchers set off in the evening. The defense line of the 2th Meibu Division and the Turkish Brigade, after which the tank hooked to the west, blocked the [-]nd Meibu Division that had climbed up the Canyue Mountain and had a regiment climbing on the top of the mountain.

The second counterattack route involved the two divisions of the 20th Army, the 32nd Artillery Division, and an independent tank regiment. They set off from Baochuan on the east side of Guangyan Mountain, that is, rushed into the Hanjiang Plain from the other direction.

The third counterattack route is the 38th Army. Their mission is... to go through the mountains on the east side of the Hanjiang Plain, from north to south. The goal is Namyangju, which has become very empty after the removal of the 25th Mibu Division After capturing Namyangju, sweeping westward, it may come into contact with a cavalry regiment deployed by the 6st US Cavalry Division east of Seoul during the daytime on June 26.

The first and second counterattack routes are both conventional routes. If there is anything unexpected, it is the tank armed with rocket launchers and night vision goggles.However, the US military has actually seen the night vision device once.

As expected, the T51 computer was very quiet. The War Information Center did not send a report to Zhisi, and Zhisi did not call to report the situation.

The time points to 10 o'clock in the evening.According to the plan before the war, the Volunteer Army's first move has already been played.How long will it take for the battle report to be fed back from the front line to Zhisi, and then from Zhisi back to Beijing?

Tang Hua looked at his watch like everyone else. 10:02, 03, 04...

"The 38th Army reported that the 112th Division arrived at Tianmo Mountain at 10 pm! Peng"

"It has been ordered that the second tank division left Dongducheon and went south. The first salvo of the 21st artillery division began at 10:07."

"The 58th and 59th Divisions are in place, and the 32nd Artillery Division is preparing for fire as planned."

……

A series of short telegrams were sent in succession. Tang Hua tore off 5 pieces of paper from the printer in a short while and handed them to Staff Officer Chen.Staff Officer Chen quickly marked up the Chinese characters and read them out.

All actions are subject to whether the penetration of the 38th Army is in place.Because of the entire counterattack, the 38th Army's dense forest interspersed is the most critical move.

In fact, Tianmo Mountain is no stranger to the Volunteers. In the second stage of the fifth battle, the blocking area of ​​the 20th Army is here.Now the 112th Division has arrived at Tianmo Mountain. If you look south from the mountain, you will see Moshi Yuli in the front left, which is where the SU100 of the [-]st Tank Division rests on the village and the hillside to communicate with the US military.In front of the right is Namyangju, which is the place where the four divisions of the U.S. Army will attack together.

Moshiyu-ri is not important now, but Namyangju is. The 112th Division will complete the attack and occupation of Namyangju in the first half of the night. In the second half of the night, the 113rd Division will go down the mountain and pass through Namyangju to Zhongxidong. The 114th Division will pass through Namyangju and cross to Guri City. The cavalry regiment attacked.

Why the 5th Cavalry Regiment is stationed at this place east of Seoul, because this is one of the two logistics centers of the US military's attack on Guangyan Mountain, and it mainly focuses on hoarding ammunition.There are at least 30 shells collected here, 20 of which are heavy artillery shells.If this logistics center is destroyed, no matter how our counterattacks from the direction of Dongducheon or Paocheon go, the U.S. military will have no reason to stay where they are and can only retreat.

When the 38th Army reported to its superiors, of course the 112th Division would not stop on the top of Tianmo Mountain to look at the stars.The telegrams were sent back and forth, and when Tang Hua tore the note from the printer, the 112th Division should have gone down the mountain and rushed towards Nanyangzhou.

美步25师北移之后，这里有南朝鲜第2师的1000多人——南朝鲜第2师的3个步兵团被打没了，这里的1000多人是它的两个汽车营、一个工兵营和一个战斗保障营。

The situation of the front troops could not be updated in real time, so Suyu just pulled down the small flags of the three divisions of the 38th Army from the north and inserted them into Tianmo Mountain near Namyangju.

"The interludes were very resolute, and they were well concealed during the day on the 25th, as expected of the old troops of Siye." Su Yu commented.

38军能在晚上10点准时出现在天魔山，当然不是从晚上8点才出发行军的，而是24日深夜就悄悄离开驻地向前运动。轻步兵为主的穿插部队在24日深夜到25日凌晨向前运动了20公里，抵达了距离天魔山5公里处的山林隐藏，25日晚上再往前一步就到了天魔山。

The big scene in the direction of Dongducheon began before the sound of guns in Namyangju.

In the direction of Dongducheon, two "firsts" in the history of war were created on the night of June 6: the US military was bombarded by an entire "Katyusha" artillery division for the first time; Battalion tank engagements with heavy tanks.

Needless to say, "Katyusha".The volunteer soldiers who went south from Dongducheon to participate in the battle first saw a large red light, which was the flames and thick smoke on the position when the rocket launcher was fired.In the position of the 25th Division of Meibu, eight kilometers away, there were pieces of explosions that flickered continuously.As a supplementary firepower, three 50mm rocket battalions under the 108th Army also lined up to participate in the bombardment. Although the explosion power of the 108mm small rocket was not as powerful as the 132mm "Katyusha", the 12 tubes were fired quickly. It also caused huge damage to the US military positions.

在漫天的曳光和爆炸声中，坦克二师的31辆IS-2、40多辆T-34-85在50军148师步兵的协同下，向美步25师的阵地发动冲击。

IS-2, correct name "Stalin"-2, was developed in 1943 and was put into the Eastern Front for the first time in 1944. It is a Soviet heavy tank that can really restrain the "Tiger". "Pershing" was equipped at the end of 1944, and it caught up with several tank battles at the end of World War II on the Western Front in early 1945.

From a technical point of view, the target of "Pershing" is "Stalin"-3, and the equipment of the Second Tank Division is slightly outdated.

But there is a difference: the IS-2 and T-34-85 of the Volunteer Army have been modified with night vision devices, while the "Pershing" battalion and the "Sherman" battalion of the 25th Meibu Division in the position have not yet been equipped. night vision goggles.

On the contrary, it is the infantry of the 25th US Infantry Division. At this time, there are about 80 M1 carbines equipped with active infrared night vision devices. I don’t know what the Americans think...

……

Beijing, the war center.

10时10分。10时20分。10时30分……

Time ticks by.

A staff officer outside the house came in and filled everyone's teacups with a round of boiling water. Tang Hua held an electric stove and cooked a pack of coffee he brought.

The chairman, prime minister, and Su Yu are the tea party, while Tang Hua and Nie Shuai are the coffee party.But the difference is not big, anyway, it will probably be all night today.

"Chief of Staff Su, did we determine the principles for the use of night vision goggle tanks before the war?" Tang Hua asked Su Yu.

"That's right. When formulating the battle plan, we must try our best to consider this point, that is, anyone who has tanks participating in the battle must ensure that we can control the battlefield area after the battle is over."

"The battlefield in Dongducheon, our side is really focused on expulsion of the U.S. military... Is there anything else that I haven't considered?" The night vision device is a magic reform plan designed by Tang Hua himself. All care.

Su Yu thought for a while, and said: "Three directions, three armies are in place at the same time to launch an assault. It is impossible for the US military to fight back on the front line. What's more, we still have the last reserve team. After the counterattack, his troops will go back. Not going, unless VanVleet wants to give us another big gift."

The computer beeped "Didi, Didi", indicating that the machine has received a new file.
