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

Chapter 108 Hengcheng Counterattack

For example, the troops commanded by Li Xiangyang will have a greatly improved hit rate and more physical strength.

Moreover, even if the troops suffered heavy casualties, their morale would not be weakened, but would become even more fearless.

It can be said that with this talent, his troops will become an invincible iron army, indestructible!

After figuring it out, Li Xiangyang couldn't wait to try out his new talent.

However, their most important task at the moment is to lure the enemy into Hengcheng.

Therefore, Li Xiangyang suppressed the thoughts in his mind and began to concentrate on commanding the 354th Regiment to retreat in an orderly manner.

.......

At present, the Eastern Front is developing step by step according to Zhisi's combat plan.

Due to the defeat shown by our army, the coalition forces became more and more rampant. They marched northward, attempting to completely annihilate all the Dragon Army on the eastern battlefield.

By February 2 and 5, the main forces of our army were dispatched one after another and advanced rapidly towards the area south of Hongchuan.

The Allied Forces, which had already advanced, were blocked by our troops in Dipingli and the area north of Hengcheng.

When the enemy finally realized that they had been tricked, they found that their own formation had already been disrupted.

In desperation, they could only fight back desperately.

As the war was about to begin, Deputy Commander Han, who was in charge of the western front command, and Deputy Commander Deng, who was in charge of the eastern front command, had a disagreement.

"Should we attack Hengcheng first, or Dipingli first?"

Deputy Commander Han believed that Dipingli should be attacked first. Dipingli was located between Hengcheng and Hancheng, and was the junction of the enemy's east-west lines. Although it was just a small village, it was almost located at the "belly button" of the peninsula, and had extraordinary military strategic significance.

Moreover, there are not many enemy troops deployed in Dipingli. If we can successfully capture Dipingli, it will be equivalent to capturing the hub of the entire battle. At that time, the right wing of the 9th Mi Army on the western front and the left wing of the 10th Mi Army on the eastern front will all be exposed to our army's attack range.

"We can use this to deter the main attacking force of the United Nations Army on the western front, forcing them to retreat and achieving our strategic goal this time!"

Deputy Commander Han's ideas are very clear and well-reasoned.

Deputy Commander Deng insisted on attacking Hengcheng first. "There are a large number of South Korean soldiers deployed in the Hengcheng area. With such a soft persimmon, why don't we pick the soft ones first? In this way, our army will have a greater chance of victory and can also annihilate a large number of enemies."

"If we attack Dipingli first, the enemy troops on the east and west lines will inevitably retreat, and our army will have to pursue them. Our soldiers are already exhausted and cannot keep up with the enemy's automated troops!"

At the same time, Deputy Commander Deng also pointed out that a large number of US military troops were deployed in Dipingli, with at least 7 to 8 battalions of troops. The enemy had strong firepower and its combat effectiveness was also higher than that of the South Korean army. It would be extremely difficult to conquer them in a short period of time.

Faced with the reasons given by Deputy Commanders Deng and Han, the commander was a little unsure for a moment.

Finally, he called home.

"I think we should attack Hengcheng first!"

The voice on the other end of the phone was very mellow, with a strong accent of dialect.

After hearing this, the commander felt relieved.

He never doubted this person's judgment.

After all, this man had personally directed countless battles and achieved results that shocked the world!

The commander immediately issued an order to the eastern line: Concentrate troops and attack Hengcheng first! "

Concentrating superior forces was the magic weapon for our army to win during the revolutionary war. One of the great man’s ten military principles was “to concentrate absolutely superior forces in every battle, surround the enemy on all sides, strive to annihilate the enemy completely, and not let any escape.”

Only in this way can we ensure that the enemy can be divided and quickly annihilated when attacking from the flank and front at the same time.

Afterwards, the commander called the 38th Army on the western front.

"Liang Daya, how long can your 38th Army hold out?"

In response to the commander's concerns, General Liang only said one sentence, "Until all the 38th Army is dead!"

After hanging up the phone, the commander showed a trace of sadness on his face.

As far as he knew, the situation of the 38th Army was not optimistic.

"This battle cannot be delayed!"

Upon receiving the order, Deputy Commander Deng immediately dispatched troops to attack Hengcheng.

此战，我军担任攻击部队的9个师约10万人，而恒城之敌为南朝军1个师又1个团和米军1个团，共计2万余人。

"beat!"

With Commander Deng's order, the Hengcheng counterattack officially began.

"Boom!"

In the Hengcheng area, there was continuous artillery fire and flames shot into the sky. Our army launched a fierce attack on the enemy in the city according to the deployment plan, and concentrated superior firepower as much as possible, using hundreds of artillery pieces and hundreds of rocket launchers to carry out concentrated bombing on the enemy.

Although it was no match for the enemy's more than 500 artillery pieces, nearly a thousand anti-tank weapons and dozens of tanks, it effectively prevented the enemy from confronting our army head-on.

The enemy was eager for quick success and was determined to annihilate our army. Therefore, after entering the city, they did not build fortifications in time, and their forces were dispersed and seriously out of touch with the main force.

Faced with our army's fierce artillery fire, the 5th Division of the Southern Dynasty in the city was simply unable to resist.

The commander of the 5th Southern Division was named Choi Min-sik. He had always looked down on Paik Sun-hwa and believed that he had seriously humiliated his country's image.

But after fighting with the Dragon Kingdom army, he understood why Bai Shanhua ran so decisively.

I really can’t beat him!

"Commander, let's retreat quickly, it will be too late if we don't retreat now!"

Faced with the advice of his subordinates, Choi Min-sik vaguely recalled a conversation.

"Commander Cui, listen to my advice. There is nothing shameful in failing to defeat the Dragon Army. There is no need to work for the US Army. You must be decisive when it is time to escape!"

"If I flee without a fight, wouldn't that make me the same type of person as Bai Shanhua?!"

The other party shook his head and said, "Master Cui, it is because I listened to Brother Bai that I am able to live to this day. On the contrary, those who did not listen to Brother Bai are already dead!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

At that time, Choi Min-sik was full of disdain for the other party.

Is this kind of person qualified to be the commander of the Southern Sixth Division?!

Now he felt that the other party's words were truly valuable advice.

"Brother Prime Minister, you never lied to me!"

Cui Minzhi shouted secretly, without hesitation, "Retreat!"

He thought secretly in his heart: It turns out that Brother Bai is the real sensible man. I must apologize to him personally in the future!

at the same time.

A valley not far from Hengcheng.

Bai Shanhua sneezed for no apparent reason.

"Master, are you feeling unwell?"

the adjutant asked quickly.
