Under the cover of Zhang Ercheng's artillery fire and light and heavy machine gun fire on the position, they pounced on the US tanks, and those US tanks saw the volunteer soldiers rushing up in front, the heavy machine guns and tank guns were a burst of wild fire, and the brothers of the demolition group were shot and fell to the ground, and the brothers who did not die picked up the explosives bags of these sacrificed comrades, lay on the ground and continued to crawl towards the US tanks, the fat man looked at this situation, Hurriedly shouted at Zhang Ercheng in the back: "Zhang Ercheng, hurry up and suppress the Yankees' tank guns for me" Zhang Ercheng was anxious when he heard that the fat man was in a hurry, knowing that it was the enemy's crazy counterattack on the front position, the firepower of the US army was quite fierce, just now when Zhang Ercheng and them shelled the enemy in Yuncheng, their artillery position was immediately returned fire by the US artillery, fortunately Zhang Ercheng had made a false position around the artillery position in advance, otherwise these new cannons that he had just obtained would have been blown up by the US artillery fire a long time ago Zhang Ercheng immediately ordered the artillery to adjust the direction and angle, and within a few minutes, a shell roared towards Colonel Smith's side, and on the spot, the tanks and armored vehicles that were placed in front of the barrier brigade were blown to pieces, and the poor American tank soldiers inside were shocked to death by the shock wave of the shells before they could climb out, and there was a commotion in the US defensive position, and some American soldiers were already retreating backwards, and Colonel Smith saw that the general trend had gone, There was no longer any point in resisting here, so he ordered the remaining American troops to retreat and retreat to Yuncheng City to prepare for street fighting with the attacking enemy, and it would be easy to support the US planes as soon as the American planes arrived in the morning.
But Smith he thought wrong, his opponent at the moment is Zhou Wu's No. 1 fierce general Fat Man is also, he is a master of tackling tough problems, how can you let Smith calmly support the fat man until dawn Of course he knows, as long as the morning dawns, then this is the world of American planes, if he doesn't clean up the Yankees here in Cloud City tonight, then it will be himself who will suffer tomorrow The fat man looked at the movement of the American army position opposite, estimated that the enemy was about to run, and hurriedly ordered the team behind to press up, the fat man's division and 20,000 horses all pressed up from the southeast and northeast directions of Yuncheng towards the American army, where did Colonel Smith and his subordinates see such a big battle, and they had no fighting spirit, at this time, the bugle keeper's offensive charge horn sounded, and the sound of "tick tock" resounded throughout Yuncheng, and the two divisions of Ge Sanmin and Xiao Zheng under Zhou Wu also launched a general attack on Yuncheng, and there were charging trumpets everywhere, Colonel Smith took the rest of the American army team like a swarm of headless flies everywhere, but he was never able to break through the position of Zhou Wu's troops, seeing the volunteer soldiers rushing up, Colonel Smith had no choice but to use the radio to call the US division headquarters behind, asking to send a team to reinforce, there is no US army, even if the South Korean army is sent, although the combat effectiveness of the South Korean army is not good, but at this time Colonel Smith can not control that, as long as someone can come to the rescue The commander of the American division who received Smith's call for help hurriedly dispatched an American regiment and a puppet army division in the direction of Shunchuan near Yuncheng to immediately rush to the aid of Yuncheng in the starry night and rescue Colonel Smith who was besieged in Yuncheng But the U.S. reinforcements ran into trouble when they rushed to the Qingchuan River Bridge, they encountered an unprecedented stubborn resistance, at this moment the Qingchuan River Bridge has been captured by Lao Zhu and their scout detachment, Lao Zhu after capturing the Qingchuan River Bridge, quickly laid mines and traps around the bridge, he observed the terrain around the bridge, and thought that the surrounding cliffs were definitely ideal positions, so he divided his team into three parts, guarding the hillside heights on both sides of the bridge, Only a small group of men and horses were left on the bridge deck to confuse the enemy, and explosive packs were placed under the piers, ready to blow up the bridge if it was lost, preventing the enemy from fleeing south or the enemy team from the south rushing to reinforce it The commander of the American regiment who came to reinforce found that the road surface of the Qingchuan River Bridge in front could only accommodate one tank to pass through, and the thousands of men and horses of his regiment could only line up in a long convoy on the mountain road here, waiting for the vehicles in front to pass, just when the "Pershing" tank at the head was about to press on the bridge deck, a dazzling fire rose into the sky, and then a deafening explosion sounded, and in the smoke of the fire, the unlucky "Pershing" tank was blown up and the turret flew out, and the track was broken into seventeen or eighteen pieces.
The slumped there turned into a pile of scrap metal that was still burning, and the tank crews inside were probably shocked to death a long time ago and never came out.
The "Pershing" in front was destroyed, and the tanks and armored vehicles in the back hurriedly reversed to dodge, and a "kicking and crackling" collision sounded, and the US vehicles crashed together in a panic, and the ranks were in chaos, and the US regiment commander had to order the team to suspend its advance, stop the attack, and after dragging the destroyed tank in front, reorganize the attack, and at the same time order the US sappers to go up, clear the mines around the bridge, and open up the passage between tanks and vehicles Lao Zhu, who was lying in ambush on the slopes on both sides of the bridge, saw the American sappers coming with mine detectors, and hurriedly ordered his brothers to prepare for battle, wait for my signal, and fire at the enemy's sappers and infantry, and never let these Yankees pass through the Qingchuan River bridge U.S. sappers dispatched bulldozers to push aside the wreckage of the tank in front, while the tanks and armored vehicles in the back continued to rush towards the bridge surrounded by infantry.
At this moment, Lao Zhu fired a shot from the twenty-shot box gun in his hand, which was the signal for the battle, and suddenly, the weapons in the hands of the brothers who were ambushed on the hillside on both sides of the bridge shot out hot flames at the American troops below, the bullets flew out with a whistling whistle, the grenades smashed over, and the mortars also "knocked" at this moment, and the guns on this side of the bridge suddenly broke out, and the two American "Pershing" tanks that hit the head suddenly turned into a pile of scrap metal, and a raging fire ignited.
Those American infantry were even more outrageous, they turned around and ran directly, and the commander of the American regiment was dumbfounded, he originally thought that this attack could successfully seize the bridge and rush to Yuncheng to reinforce Colonel Smith's idea was in vain, and the people guarding the bridge opposite were definitely not North Korean People's Army troops, it was probably Chinese A few days ago, their Mai Shuai was still swearing that the Chinese would never send troops, and they themselves had just finished fighting a three-year civil war with the Kuomintang army, and how could they have spare time to take care of the broken things here in North Korea, and Mai Shuai told his officers very leisurely: Fight to the banks of the Yalu River, let's go home for Christmas Now it seems that the prophecy of the respected Mai Shuai was ruthlessly torn apart by the machine gun mortars on the other side of the bridge, and the rumbling gunfire in the direction of Yuncheng is by no means something that the North Korean army can do, it must be more than tens of thousands of Chinese troops storming the small Yuncheng, so that the poor Colonel Smith guarding the Yuncheng and his team of thousands of people can be imagined, no matter how strong the combat effectiveness of the US army is, no matter how advanced the weapons and equipment are, it is impossible to defeat ten with one, think of this, The commander of the American regiment who came to reinforce had to order the troops attacking the bridge in front to retreat, and at this time don't be a hero, he brought only a regiment of several thousand men and horses, plus the division of the South Korean army, is far from enough to feed the Chinese army in the direction of Yuncheng opposite, God knows how many men and horses those cunning Chinese have ambushed here waiting for themselves to throw themselves into the net The commander of the U.S.
Army hurriedly sent a telegram to his superiors, greatly exaggerating the enemy situation at the Qingchuan River Bridge and Yuncheng, and demanding that they withdraw to avoid greater casualties.
Since our US military participated in the Korean War, we have not encountered a regiment completely annihilated by the enemy, and if Colonel Smith's regiment was completely annihilated by the Chinese in the Yuncheng area this time, then he, the division commander, would have come to an end, and he was also honored to become the first US division commander to be completely annihilated by the enemy on the Korean battlefield.
At the same time, the commander of the American regiment who reinforced the regiment first let the South Korean puppet army division take the lead and seize the Qingchuan River Bridge with continuous attacks, and at the same time urgently dispatched the engineer battalion of the division headquarters to erect a simple steel armored bridge near the Qingchuan River Bridge, so that the reinforcements could quickly pass through the Qingchuan River and reinforce Colonel Smith in the direction of Yuncheng, giving them the confidence to support them To say that the efficiency of the U.S. sapper unit is still quite high, soon, a group of sapper troops took trucks and bridge-building tanks to the bank of the Qingchuan River, and began to erect a steel bridge at five or six hundred meters away from the bridge that Lao Zhu and they were guarding.
At the same time, he ordered his mortar gunners to bombard those American sappers for me, and if they couldn't blow up those steel bridges, they had to blow up those sappers, but don't let them erect steel bridges, otherwise they would be miserable, not to mention the reinforcements of the American troops, and his team here on the Qingchuan River Bridge would also fall into a situation of being caught between the front and rear.
At this time, the US infantry took advantage of Lao Zhu and their time to deal with the sappers who built the bridge, and took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the Qingchuan River Bridge, at this time the US army commander was ruthless, he ordered all the South Korean puppet army divisions to rush forward, behind the US tanks and artillery non-stop battalion artillery fire cover, in the "boom" shelling, a large number of South Korean puppet army soldiers howled and rushed towards the bridge position, that momentum is quite a bit of a move to take the bridge in one fell swoop. t1706231537:
