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

Especially those troops of the various corps that have newly entered North and South Korea have more such thoughts and ideas, and such thoughts are extremely deadly and dangerous.

In addition, Matthew Lee, commander-in-chief of the US Joint Forces, also noticed that since the 9th Corps, the 19th Corps, and the 3rd Corps of the Volunteer Army rushed to the "38th Line" area, their consumption of ammunition and supplies has been increasing exponentially, which made him realize that the transportation capacity of the Volunteer Army's logistics supply lines has become stronger.

He immediately increased the frequency and sorties of air strikes, doubling the original number of thousands. His purpose was simple: to destroy your logistical supply lines.

On the night of April 4 alone, Sandeng, an important logistics reserve area of ​​the Volunteer Army, was attacked by the US Air Force, resulting in the loss of nearly 23 tons of food.

...............................

After the fifth battle started, the four volunteer armies on the right made rapid progress, advancing 4 kilometers to the south in just one day, and engaged in fierce battles with the South Korean 30th Division, the US Army 6st Division, and the US 1th Division in Huachuan City.

At the same time, the 19th Corps of the Left Army started from Changtan, crossed the Imjin River, and attempted to attack in the direction of Wenshan.

The 3rd Corps in the center attacked towards Yeoncheon as planned, and fought with the US 3rd Division and 25th Division there.

The 40th Army, where He Daming was located, immediately began to march quickly towards Jishanli. The US Joint Forces in the area were attracted by the 9th Corps and the 3rd Corps at this time. There was only one US regiment stationed in Jishanli. Facing the 5th Army with nearly 40 people, they were naturally eaten alive without any suspense.

On April 4, the 23th Army continued to move westward, with He Daming's 40th Division as the main force, directly attacking Pocheon City. At this time, there was not only the 120th Regiment of the US Army in Pocheon City, but also the 24st Turkish Brigade retreating from the Yeoncheon direction, which enhanced the defense of the entire Pocheon City unprecedentedly.

This put He Daming's 120th Division into a tough battle.

Faced with this tough nut to crack that was easy to defend, He Daming did not choose to take on the Turkish 1st Brigade in Pocheon because he knew that time was running out.

He immediately ordered Li Ling, the commander of the 359th Regiment, to set up a defense line south of Pocheon to defend against the enemy's southward attack on Pocheon City. He then led the 358th and 360th Regiments to continue southward and march rapidly towards Uijeongbu.

At this time, the 120th and 118th Divisions behind the 119th Division naturally did not waste time in Baocheon City, but directly followed the pace of the 120th Division.

At this time, the commander of the Turkish 1st Brigade in Pocheon City, Adem, looked at the strange marching route of the volunteers in the south and was confused. He immediately called the chief of staff Muda.

"Staff Officer Mu, what do you think of this volunteer army? Why do they seem to have no interest in us at all? I observed through the telescope that their army has at least tens of thousands of troops. If they attack Baochuan City with all their strength, I think it will be difficult for us to defend it with the strength of one brigade and one regiment. Why did they give up so suddenly?"

When Muda heard the question from Brigade Commander Adem, he immediately expressed his guess.

"Brigade Commander, I think these volunteers may have other combat objectives. They may want to outflank us from the rear."

Faced with Muda's speculation, Adem felt that it was very likely.

"You are right. Report the situation here to the 8th Army Headquarters immediately and see what they say."

Muda nodded.

"Yes, Brigadier."

...................................

A day ago, the 19th Corps located in the Changtan area, under the command of Commander Yang Zhi, was rapidly breaking through to Gaolangpu north of the Imjin River. Their strategic goal this time was to capture Uijeongbu, block the US-China Joint Forces retreating southward, and wait for an opportunity to occupy Seoul.

At this time, located north of the Imjin River was the South Korean 1st Reinforced Division, led by Kang Wenfeng.

His 11th Regiment was responsible for defending the Liguli line north of Wenshan;

The 12th Regiment was responsible for the line from Machi-ri to Dopuri;

The 15th Regiment was a reserve regiment, waiting for orders in the Daguling area. It was also equipped with an anti-tank battalion, which was deployed near the mouth of the Imjin River on the west side of Wenshan.

In addition, he was assigned an independent battalion to garrison the Gimpo area.

In addition, there are three additional howitzer battalions and a tank battalion allocated by the US coalition forces, which makes them fully armed to the teeth.

They concentrated their artillery on the highest point on the south bank of the Imjin River.

At this time, the 64th Army, which was the main force in the robbery, successfully dispatched the 191st Regiment of the 571st Division to capture the underwater wooden bridge and a concrete bridge, and defeated the South Korean reconnaissance force stationed on the opposite bank.

The entire army began to cross the river in an orderly manner, but what they didn't know was that this was a conspiracy of the US coalition forces, and their purpose was to lure the volunteers to cross the river.

At this time, the 64th Army did not pay any attention to the crisis after crossing the river.

Because the mudflats south of the Imjin River are an open area, there is no cover at all. It is all endless flat ground with no strategic location to defend.

When the 571st Regiment crossed the Imjin River concrete bridge as the vanguard, before the 572nd Regiment came over, they heard a few "whoosh...whoosh..." sounds.

Several flares suddenly illuminated the entire night sky, and the volunteer soldiers crossing the river were clearly visible under the light of the flares.

They were then attacked by the US Joint Forces artillery positions. A large number of artillery shells whizzed in, causing heavy casualties to the volunteer soldiers of the 571st Regiment who lacked cover.

In order to quickly complete the task of crossing the river, the 191st Division accelerated the speed of crossing the river, and its 571st and 572nd Regiments began to attack the South Korean frontline positions.

However, due to the fierce firepower of the South Korean army, the 191st Division was restricted to this mudflat and was unable to tear through the South Korean army's defense line. This was not a good thing.

As a result, at dawn on the 23rd, planes from the 5th and 4th Air Wings of the United States began to fly over the Imjin River and bombed the volunteer troops on the Imjin River mudflats.

Due to the lack of necessary bunkers and fortifications, these volunteers on the mudflats became complete sitting ducks, and suffered heavy losses under the double attack of US military aircraft and South Korean artillery.

At this time, Yang Zhi, the commander of the 13th Corps who was commanding in the rear, was quite anxious when he saw that the 64th Army was blocked from crossing the river.
