Chapter 978: Rushing Into the Enemy's Lair

It was dark and the sun was setting, and the cold wind was howling. Colonel Puller finally recruited more than 500 soldiers of the 6th team, but he did not expect to end up in a scene where he could not return home and was blown in the wild.

There were no sleeping bags, no shelter, no warm food, and no convenient vehicles. After losing most of their heavy equipment, about three companies of U.S. troops just collapsed in the leeward mountain depressions.

Is there a mistake? The powerful U.S. Navy's 6th team has ended up in such an embarrassing situation! From officers to soldiers, the more than five hundred Americans were extremely dumbfounded.

Colonel Puller called for backup on the radio, and the response he got from his superiors was, "We are trying to find a way, but there are more urgent things now, and you need to wait patiently...." '

Wait a ghost! Those high-ranking officers who stay in warm rooms can only talk in bureaucratic accents. Do they know the plight of the 6th battle and the first regiment? The 60th Division of the Volunteer Army, which was originally stationed in Fushengli, has been mobilized, running out all over the mountains and plains to clear the remnants of Colonel Kappler.

It was clear that the 6th team of the Great America was fighting against the volunteers tomorrow, but they were transferred as soon as it got dark, and it was the turn of the 6th team to be beaten by the volunteers.

A large number of lost heavy equipment was seized by the Volunteers. The machine guns and mortars were fine, but several light armored vehicles joined the recovery team and immediately became a major threat.

What worried Colonel Puller even more was the US military position in Gutuli, where there were originally more than 3,000 people, including more than 2,000 combat troops. But under the successive losses, Gutuli's defense was extremely empty.

The colonel still remembers the scene he saw in the last corner of his eye before dark. It was a group of volunteers heading south along the road—they were high-spirited and rushed towards the ancient soil like a gust of wind. Where there were abundant supplies, It will increase the combat effectiveness of these fearless fighters by ten times.

In fact the situation was a hundred times worse than Colonel Puller imagined!

Zhou Qingfeng brought his Is-7 like a hurricane, and he didn't get entangled with the U.S. troops who blocked him halfway. He rushed to Gutuli with the fast column in one go. The U.S. troops on several hilltops in Gutuli watched helplessly as this enemy army rushed into their lair and stayed completely.

The U.S. military, which has superior firepower, has always been on the offensive. It never thought that one day it would be raided by heavy tanks. Gutuli is a flat river beach, and there is no suitable terrain to stop Zhou Qingfeng. The checkpoint on the road was smashed by Is-7, and the guarding US soldiers fled in all directions.

"Come with me, first block the intersection where Gu Tuli fled south, and then seize the artillery positions and material warehouses. Today we are going to kill anyone who dares to resist with artillery fire." Zhou Qingfeng will take the initiative to take the night vision device Come out and set up on the turret, commanding his men to rampage.

Many U.S. troops still want to resist, but they are powerless in the face of the aggressive tanks. Most of the tanks in Gutuli were lost in the massacre before dark, and the few remaining are not to be feared. The 130mm main gun can solve all problems.

Colonel Puller once reminded the US military in Gutuli on the radio, but the distance of just a few kilometers did not take Zhou Qingfeng much time at all. Due to the lack of troops to resist, many U.S. troops had to surrender. After all, not everyone has the courage to resist tanks.

And when the main force of the 178th Regiment followed up, Zhou Qingfeng led a fast column to raid Zhenxingli behind Gutuli. There was only one U.S. battalion in Zhenxingli, and they resisted for a while, but in the face of high-explosive shrapnel, the resistance failed to last for ten minutes, and they suffered heavy casualties and completely collapsed.

No one can run past a tank with night vision goggles in the dark. American soldiers don't want to escape into the icy and snowy night without knowing what they are, so they have to surrender.

The violent and decisive armored raid exerted shocking power, and the more than a thousand survivors of the 178th regiment happily received the supplies left by the US military.

The head of the regiment went crazy with joy, and he shouted loudly: "Food, medicine, clothes, weapons, ammunition, vehicles, we have all night to carry these things."

The important fire support for Gutuli's defense was Company E of the 2nd Battalion of the 11th Artillery Regiment. The six 105mm howitzers of this company fell completely into Zhou Qingfeng's hands.

The artillerymen of Company E originally wanted to blow up the howitzers and shells, but Zhou Qingfeng came so fast that he didn't give them time at all.

In addition to howitzers, Gutuli also has a heavy mortar company, a professional medical company and a transport company. With the luxury of the US military, the things here are unimaginably rich for the volunteers. Faced with so many things, the head of the 178th regiment didn't even know how to transport them away?

"Our Ninth Corps fought too hard, and these things must be put to good use." The commander of the 178th Regiment and other officers were panting heavily. None of them thought that a fast-column surprise attack would bring such a great result. . Seeing the mountains of supplies, they all turned red-eyed.

The hungry and cold soldiers of the 178th Regiment were changing into American military uniforms, and everyone looked happy, as happy as the New Year. After Zhou Qingfeng's fast column captured Zhenxingli with ease, they ran back to Gutuli in a jeep. He had an important suggestion.

"Regimental Commander, we should continue to fight with the trend and use the time tonight to directly attack Hamhung, the base camp of the 6th Division 1 Division's northward advance this time, and destroy the Xingnan Port in Hamhung. Completely cut off the logistics and supplies of the 6th Division 1st Division."

Zhou Qingfeng spread out the map and pointed to Xingnan Port, which was only a few tens of kilometers away. That port was the most critical point of the Changjin Lake battlefield.

When the First Division of the 6th War withdrew from Changjin Lake, it transported 100,000 troops and 90,000 civilians from Xingnan Port, as well as more than 17,000 vehicles and 350,000 tons of supplies.

In the end, a large amount of supplies could not be transported away, so the U.S. military simply used explosives and naval guns to completely destroy Xingnan Port, leaving nothing to the volunteers.

And Zhou Qingfeng has a big heart, he wants to attack this crucial port in advance, "We have captured Gutuli unexpectedly, the command of the US military must be in a mess now, and we never thought of us raiding their lair."

The regiment leaders of the 178th regiment all looked at each other, and the regiment leader frowned and asked, "Is it impossible that the enemy's lair is unprepared?"

"Yes, the 3rd Division of the U.S. Army, a super big fish belly." After Zhou Qingfeng said a number, the 178th Regiment showed greatly moved expressions.

The current U.S. Third Division is really scumbag in combat effectiveness. This unit is the backbone of the U.S. military, but due to insufficient troops, it has supplemented a large number of Nanbang soldiers. As a result, it can only do some tasks of maintaining law and order in the rear, and going to the battlefield is tantamount to sending equipment and heads to the volunteers.

The 1st Division of the 6th Battle once angrily sued the Tenth Army after the Battle of Changjin Lake, saying that the 3rd Division of the 6th Army that cooperated with them was too rubbish, and sent a large amount of heavy equipment to the volunteers.

Xingnan Port is also the headquarters of the U.S. Tenth Army, but a unit like the Third Division guards the enemy's headquarters, and once it is attacked, it will be a catastrophe.

"But we have too few troops, and it is too difficult to run dozens of kilometers at night. We have to divide some people to carry the supplies in Gutuli. In this case, attacking a division of the enemy is also a great risk." The political commissar of the regiment is responsible for proposing the possibility problems at hand.

"We have seized a large number of vehicles, and it won't take long to run dozens of kilometers!" Zhou Qingfeng pointed to the US military vehicles in Gutuli. There are more than 300 vehicles. Pull it together. If you have a chance, everyone will make money together!"

The more Zhou Qingfeng talked, the faster the hearts of the leaders in the regiment beat. These experienced generals were carefully considering the possibility and risk of continuing to raid Xingnan Port. Don't ask for great achievements in the war, just to make the enemy's headquarters mess up, that is, to lose the entire 178th regiment.

"But how can we have so many drivers?" The head of the group weighed repeatedly in his mind, and finally asked a question that was not a problem.

"Driver?" Zhou Qingfeng grinned, looking at the large number of captured American soldiers in Gutuli, "Most Americans can drive, I think they should trade their actions for a chance of survival, after all, accidental deaths on the battlefield A few hundred people is too common."
