Refuse to join the Wansui Army, I will build an ace division
Chapter 130 The 63rd Army's heroic death
Soon, Wen Cheng found the Song general and reported the matter.
"Large numbers of enemy forces are being held back by our army on the western and central fronts. Where will they get the strength to attack the Iron Triangle?"
General Song waved his hand dismissively, "Wen Cheng, you think too much."
Wen Cheng frowned and said, "General Song, if Tieyuan and Jinhua are lost, our army's logistics line will be completely cut off."
"I suggest sending the 40th Army back to defend the city, just in case something goes wrong."
Upon hearing this, General Song's expression looked a little unhappy.
"The commander-in-chief gave my troops an order to retreat immediately, but your 40th Army turned around. Are you trying to disobey orders?"
Wen Cheng frowned even deeper, "General Song, Tieyuan and Jinhua are of great importance and cannot afford to lose anything!
"enough!"
General Song had a sullen face and a slightly cold voice, "If anything goes wrong with the 40th Army, can you bear the responsibility?"
"What's more, the commander has already ordered the 20th Army to garrison in Huachuan in order to deal with the enemy's sneak attack!"
He looked at Wen Cheng deeply and said, "There have been heavy casualties on the Western and Central Fronts, but only the Eastern Front is relatively stable. If your misjudgment leads to an accident on the Eastern Front, who will bear the responsibility?"
Wen Cheng was silent for a moment, then nodded, "I understand, General Song."
"Okay, let's go back."
General Song waved his hand and said, "If Zhisi has new combat orders, I will inform you as soon as possible."
After Wen Cheng returned to the 40th Army's headquarters, Li Xiangyang couldn't wait to ask, "Commander, what did General Song say?"
"General Song disagrees with our army returning to support us."
Wen Cheng said calmly.
"Why?!"
Li Xiangyang couldn't help but raise his voice.
Suddenly, he found that both Wen Cheng and Deng Yue had calm expressions.
It was as if the two of them had expected this.
"Commander, Deputy Commander..."
Li Xiangyang opened his mouth, a little confused.
"Li Xiangyang, have you come up with a mature idea for the armored unit you proposed last time?"
Wen Cheng suddenly asked.
"Yes, I have..."
Li Xiangyang was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Wen Cheng meant.
"I will report this to the Zhisi. Before getting the Zhisi's approval, the 354th Regiment can set off first."
Wen Cheng continued, "You can make a request. How many weapons do you need? I will try my best to satisfy you."
"Besides that, the 352nd Regiment is also under your command!"
Li Xiangyang was stunned at first, then nodded excitedly, "Yes!"
Although there are only two regiments of troops, if they can be formed into an armored regiment and used properly, they can completely tie down one and a half enemy divisions.
As long as we can hold out until reinforcements arrive, the battle can be won.
"Captain, are you in trouble?"
Li Xiangyang suddenly realized something and asked quickly.
"You don't have to worry about that. Just make good use of this opportunity."
Wen Cheng looked at Li Xiangyang and said meaningfully.
"Tell me what you need."
Li Xiangyang was not polite and told him the weapons and equipment needed.
"Go back and prepare, then let's go!"
Wen Cheng waved his hand.
At the same time, under the command of Van Fleet, the Allied forces quickly arrived at the Iron Triangle and launched a fierce attack.
The 20th Army stationed in Huachuan immediately set up blocking positions to intercept the attacking 10th US Army.
On May 5, the Huachuan blocking battle officially began.
The battle report was quickly transmitted to the Zhisi, and the commander was shocked when he learned about it.
Although he had anticipated this, the enemy's advance was so fast that he was caught off guard.
"Commander, the 65th Army sent a telegram saying that the 1st US Army has crossed the Linjin River. The enemy's firepower is too strong, and they can't hold on any longer!"
the telegraph operator shouted.
The commander's face was as gloomy as water. "We have to delay even if we can't. Even if it means death, we have to protect Tieyuan for me!"
"Call the 63rd Army and have them rush to Tieyuan. Even if all of them are killed, they must hold out for 15 days!"
He stared at the battle map, frowning.
On the Eastern Front, the closest unit to the 63rd Army was the 40th Army.
But even if the order is given now, it will take a lot of time for the 40th Army to get there.
"If we had known this, we would not have allowed the 40th Army to retreat so far!"
The commander was deeply moved.
Suddenly, the chief of staff came over in a hurry.
"Commander, the commander of the 40th Army has something to report to you"!
After hearing this, the commander's frown relaxed a lot, "This Li Xiangyang is really a timely help!"
Then he looked at the telegraph operator, "Has the telegram to the 63rd Army been sent?"
“It’s all sent out!”
The telegraph operator thought the commander was urging him and spoke quickly.
"Send another message, telling them to hold on as long as possible and wait for reinforcements from the 40th and 27th Armies!"
After he finished speaking, the commander seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help muttering, "This old Song is too craftsmanlike..."
On the other hand, after receiving the order, the 63rd Army ordered the entire army to march towards Tieyuan day and night, and arrived successfully in the early morning of the 28th.
Looking at the long defensive line, Commander Fu knew clearly that the 63rd Army alone could not hold the line.
However, the order issued by Zhisi was to hold out for 15 days, which allowed them to resist based on the terrain.
There are scattered high ground on both sides of the place that the Allied Forces must pass through. As long as they hold the high ground, the enemy will definitely not be able to pass through.
"Order each division to use the nailing tactic and firmly nail down every high ground!"
The 63rd Army was divided into smaller units, with the troops arranged roughly in a V-shape and divided into more than 200 small positions.
Commander Fu knew Li Qiwei. He was a cautious man and would definitely eliminate all our positions during the attack.
In this way, even if the enemy's firepower is strong, it will take a lot of time to completely clear more than 200 hills.
After he gave the order, he suddenly received a telegram from Zhisi.
"Try to hold on and wait for reinforcements from the 27th and 40th Armies?"
After reading the telegram, Commander Fu shook his head slightly.
At this point, the only way for the 63rd Army to stop the enemy is to use the nail tactics to attract firepower.
It can be said that on the way to Tieyuan, the entire 63rd Army was ready to sacrifice.
According to intelligence, the enemy's troops this time totaled more than 12, while their 63rd Army had only more than troops.
Due to long-term combat, their ammunition was almost consumed, and they only had a few heavy firepower units and a small amount of anti-tank equipment.
Therefore, even if they knew that reinforcements were coming, they could not change their fighting style.
The only thing that can change is how long it takes for the reinforcements to arrive.
If we arrive earlier, fewer people will die.
"Comrades, it all depends on who has better luck..."
Commander Fu looked at the countless small hills in the distance with a faint smile on his face.
There were sparkling tears in his eyes.
Making this suicidal decision, he was tormented more than anyone else.
But, they had to do it.
"Fuck it! You want to cross here? The grandfathers won't allow it!"
