Chapter 420 stalemate

420 stalemate

After landing in Incheon, the focus of the US military's offensive was concentrated on the two directions of Bupyeong and Gimpo Airport.

Despite the brave resistance of the People's Army, Fuping, which was sandwiched between Incheon and Seoul, was quickly blown into flames by the coordinated firepower of the US Army's land and air.Unlike the US military that seized more than 2000 tons of American-made bullets and artillery shells in Fuping in history, this time with the assistance of China, the People’s Army equipped a large number of American weapons and unsealed the seized American-made ammunition. As a bomb, it was used to destroy the Jingren Highway.The nearly 1000 tons of artillery shells stored by the People's Army have completely destroyed the Jingren Highway. To restore it, the difficulty is almost equal to rebuilding a new road.

"Damn the Yankees, they're doing more damage to the roads than termites!"

When he saw with his own eyes the Jingren Highway that had been bombed beyond recognition and shattered, the face of Lieutenant General Almond, the commander of the new US Tenth Army, was gathered together with the tip of his nose as the center.

Major General Dalton, the combat staff officer of the Tenth Army next to Almond, scratched his lower lip with his front teeth, and said in embarrassment: "This **** road is completely useless now, it has lost the meaning of marking on the map. We must pass it all the way Repairing requires an engineer battalion to work for a whole month, and I say this is only a preliminary repair."

Almond nodded and said: "At present, I don't care about the road. After all, this place is not far from Seoul. Now Fuping has been captured by us, but the Yankees' harassment operations have not stopped for a moment. Their fortifications around Fuping are very solid.

This forced us to temporarily build a new line of defense around Bupyeong City and confront the North Koreans.Donton, it looks like we won't be able to reach Incheon safely until we take down Bream Mountain to the east of Bupyeong. "

Major General Dalton said frankly: "The North Koreans dug countless fortifications on Bream Mountain and hid a lot of artillery in the anti-gun holes. Our tanks couldn't go up, and the infantry's attacks suffered a lot. Every day there are dozens of them. Soldiers died because of attacking the Bream Mountain position consisting of 16 highlands, and more were wounded. According to statistics, the number of wounded has increased to 472!

From the beginning of the landing, we found that there were fortifications of the Yankees in every mountain. They dug holes everywhere like moles, and soldiers rushed out of the holes to attack the rear of our forward. More than 500 people have been killed so far.How many if not our firepower enough? Powerful enough, the casualties would be greater.

In addition to what we paid for the capture of Zhongchuan Mountain that runs through the east of Incheon, that is more than 17 people, more than half of the 4000 people of the 2000th South Korean Infantry Regiment, and the casualties of the coalition forces have exceeded 3000.

Because of the heavy casualties, the 17th South Korean Infantry Regiment has been disbanded and added to the four marine battalions in South Korea. They are currently the vanguard of the attack. "

Almond clenched his fist angrily and smashed the front cover of the jeep, saying: "Strengthen the firepower! Strengthen the firepower! In this case, I can only order to strengthen the firepower and tell the navy to keep the carrier aircraft from stopping for a moment. I shot rockets into every shit hole the Yankees dug in the hills! EVERYONE!

Tell General MacArthur I need the full support of the Army Air Forces.Now we can't take care of Lieutenant General Walker, let him find a way to defend Busan by himself!We must concentrate all air forces on this passage east of Incheon!Victory is ours as long as we keep heading east! "

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

At this time, Cui Yongjian, the deputy commander of the Korean People's Army, hadn't closed his eyes for three days and three nights. In order to hold this line of defense and fight a good blocking battle, the 11 troops in his hands were launching counterattacks again and again against the US-South Korean coalition forces in turn. Charged, fighting for every trench, facing the astonishing firepower of the US military, the battle situation was extremely tragic.

In the headquarters of the People's Army in Seoul, the beeping electronic sound of the radio station rang non-stop.

"Report to the commander, Li Hanyong, commander of the No.14 militia division, come here. His position was attacked by the US military for two hours in a row, causing heavy casualties! He requested to cancel the order to launch a counterattack after the air strike!"

"Tell him it can't be canceled! This counterattack was launched in cooperation with the No.511 militia division on the 15 highland in the north of Incheon. How can it be done without the cooperation of the No.14 militia division in the east! Tell Li Hanyong that we must resolutely and thoroughly launch a counterattack !"

…………

"Report to the commander, come to the Ninth Militia Division. Their defense line on the west side of Gimpo Airport can no longer hold up! The casualties of the entire division have exceeded half! The terrain is too flat, and the US military is repeatedly attacking with artillery and tanks."

"Tell them, as long as they stand guard until dark, the Sixth Militia Division will come to support! If they withdraw, what will the Tenth Militia Division in the south do!"

…………

"Report to the commander, the rear hospital is full of wounded and cannot send any more!"

"Tell them, transfer all the lightly wounded to the homes of fellow villagers in the countryside, and only keep the seriously wounded in the hospital!"

…………

"Reporting to the commander, the first regiment of the Second Infantry Division to attack Fuping is currently in a stalemate with the U.S. military. The U.S. military has already built fortifications on the outskirts of Fuping City. The Second Infantry Division requested another [-] grenades. goods!"

"Order the militia transport team to transfer them immediately! Hurry up!"

…………

"Report to the commander, China has agreed to provide an additional aid of 100 million grenades."

"Great! Great! Order the railway to speed up repairs, don't worry about the air strikes by the American devils, and the second batch of grenades must be delivered quickly!"

Cui Yongjian, deputy commander of the People's Army, was overjoyed when he heard the news that China had provided an additional 100 million hand grenades.During this period of time, the reason why the People's Army was able to hold on to the second line of defense from Gimpo Airport to Bream Mountain after losing the first line of defense was that the first batch of [-] hand grenades that China aided were finally nearly paralyzed by the bombing of the US military. The railway line has reached the front line.

For this type 67 wooden handle grenade with a killing radius of seven meters, the People's Army gave it a friendly nickname "Chinese Hand Cannon". The Type 67 grenade made a great contribution when it was transported to the front line for the first time. The People's Army on Bream Mountain used grenades like raindrops to suppress the charge organized by the 500st Marine Division of the United States on the slope of the mountainside, and sent the South Korean Navy and Marine Corps that took the lead. The first battalion of the war was bombed and lost more than half, killing and injuring more than [-] people.

"So many guns, grenades, and medicines, this favor, alas, owes me too much..." Cui Yongjian shook his head.Get back into command.

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

MacArthur was still on the cruiser "Mount McKinley" at this time, waiting for the news that the Tenth Army led by General Almond had taken Seoul.

However, five days in a row passed, and the battle situation gradually became stalemate. At this moment, all 75000 members of the Tenth Army had landed, and more than 1 military vehicles and more than 8 tons of supplies had been transported to the Incheon Wharf.But the scene MacArthur expected to go straight to Huanglong did not appear. The U.S. Tenth Army encountered resistance from the People's Army in all directions. Out of the middle, implement blocking.

Facing the People's Army on the Zhongchuan Mountain line, which is seven kilometers away from the coast in the east of Incheon, the U.S. military used the 17th Infantry Regiment of South Korea as a death squad. On the ground, it was possible to break through.

But the consequence of the navy doing this is that they have to go back to Japan for supplies, and there will be a week-long period of weak fire support at sea. Only the bb-62 and bb-63, which have just joined the battle group from afar, still have a lot of shells.

The bb-62 New Jersey and the bb-63 Missouri are both Iowa-class battleships, and the bb-62 New Jersey and the other two Iowa-class battleships are both bb-61 Iowa and bb-64 Wisconsin. The unblocking order received after the outbreak of war.For super monsters like the Iowa class, the U.S. Navy does not have the ability to enter the factory for maintenance. As the first Iowa class that has completed docking maintenance and unsealed, it was taken out before the paint was completely dry. Hastily sent over.

In contrast, the bb-63 Missouri seemed to be more at ease. As the only Iowa-class battleship that continued to serve after the war, the Missouri has been cruising in the Atlantic Fleet, deterring the Soviet Union's North Sea Fleet, and suppressing the Soviet Union from going to the Atlantic Ocean. channel.After the outbreak of the Korean War, the Missouri did not stop for a moment, and directly drove towards Japan together with two other light cruisers and a supply ship in the Atlantic Fleet.

The two steel behemoths are each 270 meters long, and the height above the water is close to 50 meters, which is equivalent to a 406-story building above sea level. The three triple-mounted 3mm artillery are not idle at the moment, and they are constantly radioing on the front line. Under the command, sporadic shelling was launched against the positions of the People's Army.If it doesn't hit, every time it hits, it will be a 50-meter deep pit, with a killing radius of [-] meters.
