Join the top ace army at the beginning of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea
Chapter 41: Encirclement and interception, the 2nd US Division and the 8th South Korean Division wer
Division Commander Luo Sheng spoke first.
“各位目前南韩第8师两个团已经被我们40军给消灭了,现在处于洪川南面35公里处的南韩第5师还有美军第2师,目前正和66军还有42军旗下的两个师激战,我相信很快他们就会溃败。
At that time, they will surely flee frantically to the south. We cannot let these American coalition forces fleeing south slip away so easily. We must keep them on this land permanently.
However, their escape route is still under discussion. At present, our 120th Division is in Longtouli, which is north of Guangtian. We must choose an ambush point now and set off as soon as possible, otherwise something unexpected will happen!"
As soon as the division commander Luo Sheng finished speaking, the division political commissar Zhang Tang took the lead in expressing his opinions and views.
"Everyone, I think what Commander Luo said is absolutely right, time is running out.
The South Korean 2th Division and the US nd Division to our north currently have only three escape routes to choose from.
The first is the Chipyong-ni area in the west, which is currently under the control of the US 9th Army.
The second route is the area around Hechengli and Xiari to the north of Hengcheng, which is currently an unowned land.
The last route is the area around Hajinfuli on the right side of the eastern front, where South Korea’s 3rd Division is located.
After comprehensive analysis, I feel that the fleeing US coalition forces are more likely to choose Topyong-ni."
The conjecture of the division political commissar Zhang Tang was endorsed by the division chief of staff Zheng Shi.
"I think Political Commissar Zhang's analysis is very correct. I think so too."
At this time, Luo Sheng, the core commander of the 120th Division, had not made a decision yet. He looked at He Daming, who had been silent, and took the initiative to ask him,
"Deputy Commander He, what do you think of our Political Commissar Zhang's speculation?"
Luo Sheng's words also aroused the curiosity and expectation of Zhang Tang and Zheng Shi. They also wanted to hear whether the deputy division commander He Daming had any other different views and opinions.
After observing the topographic map, He Daming thought for a while and then spoke.
"Commander, Political Commissar, I think the US coalition forces will not choose Chipyong-ni as the direction to break out. They will most likely choose to escape to the areas of Xia Ri and Hechengli."
After hearing He Daming's guess, Division Commander Luo Sheng and Division Political Commissar Zhang Tang were both surprised. After looking at each other, they asked in unison, "Deputy Division Commander He, why do you think so?"
In response to the questions from the two officers, He Daming began to explain in detail.
"Division Commander, Political Commissar, you see, there are three corps of the North Korean People's Army to the east of Hoengseong. According to the battle report from the front, they have already engaged in a firefight with the South Korean 3rd Division in Hajinfuli.
Therefore, the South Korean 5th Division and the US 2nd Division must have known this battle report, and it is absolutely impossible for them to move towards the Hajinfuli area.
As for Topyong-ni in the west, it was even less likely for them to go there, although it was still under the control of the US 9th Army.
But everyone should not forget that the South Korean 8th Regiment that was just on Longtouli Road was wiped out by our army. They should have realized that there were troops of our Volunteer Army ambushing in the west, so they could only choose the only shortest and most reliable escape route, which was to flee to Xia Ri and Hechengli. "
As soon as He Daming finished speaking, Chief of Staff Zheng Shi suddenly mentioned,
"Deputy Division Commander He, isn't the 42th Division of our 126nd Army deployed to the north of Hechengli? The South Korean 5th Division and the US 2nd Division are fleeing south. Isn't this just walking into a trap?"
When He Daming heard what Chief of Staff Zheng Shi said, he immediately explained:
"Chief of Staff Zheng, you are right. It is true that the 42th Division of our 126nd Army is blocking the reinforcements of the Hengcheng defense line in the north of Hengcheng.
But have you ever thought about what would happen if the remnants of the US 2nd Division and the South Korean 5th Division that fled south cooperated with the South Korean st Division that was heading north to provide support in the direction of Hoengseong.
Under the pincer attack from the north and the south, it was not difficult to break through the defense line of the 42th Division of the 126nd Army.
Therefore, we must rush to the Xia Ri and He Cheng Li areas and set up ambushes there. Only in this way can we completely block the remnants of the US Joint Forces there."
In response to He Daming's remarks, Chief of Staff Zheng Shi stopped expressing his opinion, while Division Commander Luo Sheng and Division Political Commissar Zhang Tang decided to adopt his plan and reported it to the 40th Army Headquarters.
After hearing the plan of the 120th Division, Army Commander Wen Cheng immediately agreed to implement this combat plan.
Soon, the 120th Division began a forced march and rushed to the Xia Ri and Hechengli areas.
此时在66军和和42军124师、125师的协同作战下,处于东面战场最前沿的美第2师和南韩第5师快速南逃,由于他们都是机动部队,移动速度非常快,这让追击的66军和40军只能望人兴叹。
You have to know that on the plains, a person's two legs alone cannot catch up with the four wheels of a car.
截止到2月12日晚上8点,南韩第5师和美第2师在美第1航空联队的飞机掩护下,开始疯狂朝着横城方向逃窜。
The 40th Division of the 119th Army stopped the troops coming to support from the Hengcheng area in the Wuyuanli area.
At this time, the 40th Division of the 120th Army had completed its deployment in the areas of Xia Ri and Hechengli.
Their entire division was well-rested, waiting for the arrival of the remnants of the US Joint Forces.
In the summer area, Deputy Division Commander He Daming stood on the mountain range on the right and began to observe the situation to the north.
Since it was already 9 o'clock in the evening, the night sky in the entire summer area was pitch black and the visibility distance was not high.
However, the U.S. military truck convoy was moving quickly along the highway towards the summer area, and the headlights were particularly bright in the dark night sky.
He Daming soon discovered them. This defeated US Joint Forces was heading towards Xiari and Hechengli, just as He Daming had expected.
At this time, on the way of fleeing, Jonathan, the commander of the 2nd Division of the United States, was extremely upset. He kept complaining to the accompanying Chief of Staff Moody.
"Moody, damn it, I underestimated the enemy. Commander Matthew had warned us to be careful of the Volunteer Army before, and I made such a low-level mistake, causing our division to fall into the trap of the Volunteer Army. Now we are in trouble."
After hearing what the division commander Jonathan said, Chief of Staff Moody immediately comforted him.
"Division Commander, don't worry too much. Hengcheng is still under the control of our army. We have deployed heavy troops there. Those damn volunteers have such poor mobility that they won't be able to catch up with us in a short time.
I think as long as we can successfully pass through Xia Ri and Heguli, we can rest assured."
