Chapter 106: A tragic life-and-death hindrance

The night is so sad that the enemy is moving in the dark.

The roar of US planes came from the sky. There was a huge explosion in front of them getting closer and closer. The South Korean army was walking in chaotic steps and advancing under the command of the commanders with huge breathing. The fighting atmosphere in the team made people feel extremely depressing.

"Damn, I'm going to die again..."

"Fuck! You have to be so active even if you go to die?"

"Damn Americans, why don't they go? Let's be cannon fodder?"

"Stop fucking nonsense, give it to me..."

"If anyone attacks are unfavorable, I will shoot whom I will be in the back..."

The artillery fire shook the sky, and flares rose one after another in the sky, surrounded by complaints from the mouths of South Korean soldiers. Under the faint light of the flares, Wang Yang found that the South Korean troops were all depressed and panic was hidden in his eyes. It seemed that they were already scared by the artillery fire of the Sixty-Three Army. They were already afraid. The enemy officers had to use the method of wartime gun supervision to force the soldiers to attack forward.

Wang Yang was in a daze and felt incredible.

Logically speaking, there will be no more soldiers in our army on the position of the 63rd Army. Now the enemy is sending a whole battalion. Even if there are many people, even if they are crowded, they will definitely win. Why can't the enemy raise some morale under such an absolute advantage? Could it be that our army is so brave that the enemy can't raise the courage to compete with our army at all?

He was surprised and happy. Wang Yang could feel proud in such an invincible army, but he didn't know how hard the soldiers of the 63rd Army had made for this hard-won victory. The fierce battles on the front line of Tieyuan and Jinhua were no longer enough to describe. This front line of less than 25 kilometers can only be said to be that every meter was piled up with the bodies of soldiers on both sides.

In five days, from the breakout of Wangyang to the Han River, the Sixty-Three Army was in Tiewon, and the Jinhua line began to engage in a head-on life-and-death battle with the United Nations army. With the victory in the late stage of the fifth battle, Li Qiwei's eyes were first on Tiewon, and many high grounds on the Jinhua line. After this, there was the flat river of North Korea. The Volunteer Army and the Korean People's Army had no danger to seize, and it was not a problem even if they reached Pyongyang.

For the volunteer army at this time, the large army was gathering and transferring on the eastern front, and the dilemma of lack of ammunition and food was not the best time to fight. If the front lines of Tieyuan and Jinhua were broken through, not only would they not be able to score politically, but they would even cause heavy losses to the large army.

This is an extremely important line of defense. The battle between the United Nations and the Central Volunteers has reached the most critical moment of life and death. Under the strong wishes of the commanders of the two armies, the bloody battlefield was in a fierce battle in five days and five nights. The price paid by both sides was extremely amazing. Even if any commander on both sides saw the number of casualties under his command, he had to cry sadly.

The 63rd Army guarded Tieyuan, and the actual number of warable people on the Jinhua front line was actually about 27,000. In order to deal with the large-scale killing of enemy aircraft and cannons, the 63rd Army had to carry out ladder defense, and the formation arranged was light in front and heavy in the back. The first one to enter the position to block the 189th Division, and the 188th Division, as a reserve force, was waiting at any time to rotate behind.

During the bloody battles of five days and five nights, the 189th Division, the forefront, was extremely tenaciously attacked by the enemy.

The entire division was launched in an echelon. The 565th Regiment was on the left wing, at Longtan Cave, Shazi Cave, Kezi Cave, and Fucun Regional Defense; the 566th Regiment was in the middle, at Banyuanli, Louya, Dizang Cave, and Xinpu Cave; the 567th Regiment was on the right wing, at Buguli, 233.2 Highland, Caoli, and 475 Highland Regional Defense, forming an arc line of defense, carrying out a resolute blockade without giving up in an inch of land.

The United Nations Army did not hesitate to break through the defense line composed of the volunteer army, aircraft, cannons, tanks, armored vehicles, and even naval guns roared and launched extremely fierce attacks on the positions of the 189th Division. The front-line troops of the 189th Division fought tenaciously and fought against the enemy's multiple attacks. The defending soldiers fought resolutely and courageously, fully carrying forward the tradition of our army's heroic combat, and would never withdraw from the battle until the last breath.

In just five days, both sides paid an unacceptable huge price in the fierce battle. The United Nations forces paid a significant price of 37,210 casualties, and our 189th Division's less than 14,000 team also paid 11,029 casualties.

The US military took turns to fight without hesitation. The United Nations Army, led by the Eighth Army of the US Army, concentrated the forces of the 13 divisions of four armies on the western front, and formed a "task force" with the incisive infantry, artillery and armored soldiers, and launched a crazy attack on our army under the cover of the aviation army.

In an attempt to seize the lack of food and bullets and fatigue in the later period of the fifth battle of our army, we used their so-called "magnetic tactics" to stick to our army, and fought a climax of annihilation war on the front lines of Tieyuan and Jinhua. Even a combat plan to deploy annihilate our volunteer army and a reorganization of annexation war was placed on the desk of UN Commander-in-Chief Li Qiwei.

In order to arrive with victory, the United Nations army rarely invested 7 divisions in batches on the railway. The US army also went barely and sent out their most elite troops, including the 1st Cavalry Division, the 3rd Division, the 24th Division, the 25th Division, the Canadian Brigade, the 1st Division, the 9th Division, and the First Land Regiment. A total of four US divisions and nearly three South Korean divisions were attacked with nearly 90,000 troops and crazily against the 189th Division with less than 14,000 people.

The US military has more than 1,300 artillery pieces, 180 tanks, and the support of a powerful air force. It blew the Iron Origin position with more than 4,500 shells per minute, and the positions changed hands several times a day.

But what the United Nations army never understands is that it is often seen that artillery fire completely lifts every piece of soil on the Volunteer Army's position, and no life should be left there. But as long as their infantry rushed forward, the Volunteer Army's position would sound a resolute gunfire. This impossible thing happened many times in various battlefields in Tieyuan, which led to the United Nations army calling the soldiers of the Sixty-Three Army a magical army that could not be killed.

The most tragic thing is the 233.2 highland and the Seed Mountain defensive position. Seed Mountain is 665 meters above sea level and stands in the center of Tieyuan. It is like a giant looking down at Tieyuan. Once it is occupied here, the line of Jinhua will be visible at a glance. Such an important commanding height is of course a strategic location for military strategists.

The corpses were everywhere, and blood was covered with the ground was not enough to describe the tragic situation here. On this position, the enemy and our sides changed hands several times, one company, one battalion, and a regiment of troops were constantly filling the positions, but this position was like a huge bottomless pit. No matter how many people the Volunteer Army and the United Nations Army filled it, it seemed that it would never be enough. The bodies of the soldiers on both sides overlapped and were blown up again by ruthless artillery fire. After a few days, it gave people a desolate illusion. With the flesh and blood of the soldiers on both sides, the mountain seemed to be several feet tall.

At the beginning of the battle, the enemy repeatedly attacked with the deterrent tactic of increasing troops in large numbers. Especially at dawn on the fifth day, the 3rd Division, the 24th Division, the 25th Division and the 9th Division of South Korea joined the battle together, and launched three to six regiments on the front of the 189th Division, in four batches of attack wave formations, launching fierce and multiple attacks.

Faced with the surging enemies, the 189th Division was not afraid of the enemy's strength, and each regiment fought fiercely with several times the enemy. The last life-and-death hindrance that shocked the world and the ghosts and gods started one after another on various positions. The soldiers had no time to think about anything, except to avoid the enemy's artillery attacks, and then fired mechanically downwards. Once there was no bullet, they used bayonets and stones to resolutely fight back at the enemy.

This uninterrupted attack lasted until the afternoon. The enemy's offensive did not weaken, but it even strengthened its offensive power. After a brief battlefield rest, the enemy aviation suddenly dispatched 370 fighter jets to bomb the depth of the 189th Division with bombshells, cutting off the support from the rear of the 189th Division to the front. Then, under the cover of the tank group, the enemy ground troops also launched fierce attacks at the depth of the 189th Division in two directions.

This time, the US military came with all its strength, tanks and cannons opened the way, and the infantry immediately attacked like ants. The soldiers of the 189th Division on Seed Mountain defeated the enemy one layer and faced another layer of siege, and ate one of the enemy's battalions. The enemy left no room for room to send another battalion. In the end, the ammunition and food were exhausted. The personnel of the 189th Division defended the Seed Mountain position were surrounded by the enemy, but our soldiers did not take a step back and fought fiercely with the enemy until the last moment, and all died heroically.

The other enemy led by tanks and broke through the Kyrgyzone, pressing the 189th Division's first defense depth of the 477.2 Highland.

The situation was extremely critical, and the enemy's attack strength this time was unprecedentedly powerful. The 189th Division had no choice but to use the reserve force, and the division and most of the service personnel and health team personnel were also engaged in the battle. However, due to the dense artillery fire of the enemy and the fierce tank attack, the 189th Division lacked anti-tank weapons and could only use grenades in their hands, and even faced the torrent of steel with their bodies. The commanders and soldiers of the 189th Division sacrificed their lives to fight tenaciously, and the enemy's offensive momentum was still difficult to stop. The 189th Division was at risk of being divided by the enemy at any time.

At this extremely urgent moment, the 189th Division, from the political commissar and acting commander of the division, Cai Changyuan, to all the commanders and soldiers of the company, regardless of hunger and fatigue, were not afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice, and fought bloody battles repeatedly with the enemy. The front-line combat companies all fought for bayonets and used huge rocks to meet the enemy.

The fierce battle caused casualties to the 189th Division to be unique since the founding of the army. At this time, the situation was not the case whether 189 should consider leaving some seeds for the troops. The soldiers of the volunteer army, who were red-eyed, swearing to death. After the bullets were finished, the stones were thrown away. They shouted the slogan of fighting for the motherland and the Korean people, and rushed towards the enemy with bayonets. Most of the company and platoon cadres of the front-line troops were injured or sacrificed heroically. Some cadres and soldiers were seriously injured and surrounded by the enemy, and they were ready to die. They even called the glorious bullets. Even if they died, they would have to pull a few enemies to take the blame.
