"Let the Fourth Army divide the battlefield? There is an entire division of the beautiful country over there, and there are eight divisions of the Southern Dynasty!"
After hearing Li Qiufan's proposal to the Volunteer Army Headquarters, Zhao Gang immediately widened his eyes and then asked him.
"We can't stop the 7th Infantry Division of the Beautiful Country unless the First Army also rushes over."
"But the First Army is too far away, and this idea is simply unrealistic."
"And my purpose is only to intercept the troops of the Southern Dynasty. As for the 7th Infantry Division, they will definitely withdraw after seeing the Fourth Army!"
After hearing Zhao Gang's inquiry, Li Qiufan immediately explained it.
"How do you know that the 7th Infantry Division will withdraw? Is it possible that you still predict it?"
Zhao Gang became confused. He didn't understand why Li Qiufan was so sure that the 7th Infantry Division would withdraw.
"You are stupid. The beautiful country has just lost a 24th Infantry Division. Now I will send tens of thousands more troops to penetrate the enemy's junction. The first one encountered will definitely be the 7th Infantry Division."
"Do you think the commander of the beautiful country thinks that we are going for the 7th Infantry Division?"
"And isn't there the First Army here? I will let the First Army continue to advance south and put pressure on the enemy's flank defenses!"
After hearing Zhao Gang's words, Li Qiufan smiled and shook his head, and then explained to him.
After listening to Li Qiufan's explanation, Zhao Gang suddenly realized it, and then drafted a telegram and sent it to the Volunteer Army Headquarters.
After receiving Li Qiufan's telegram, the entire Volunteer Army headquarters was in a state of excitement. The boss did not expect that Li Qiufan would actually wipe out the 29th Brigade of the Eagle Army and the 24th Infantry Division of the Beautiful Country.
And regarding Li Qiufan's proposal, the boss immediately understood what he meant and then agreed.
"Correspondent, order the Fourth Army to leave one battalion to clean the battlefield, and the other troops will immediately set off towards the enemy's junction!"
"In addition, inform the First Army to leave the task of cleaning the battlefield to the Mountain Division and let them continue to advance south, but not too fast, so as not to fall into the enemy's trap!"
After receiving the reply from the Volunteer Army Headquarters, Li Qiufan asked his correspondent to notify the Fourth Army, leaving one battalion to continue cleaning the battlefield and guarding the seizures, while other troops penetrated towards the enemy's junction.
At the same time, orders were given to the First Army to continue advancing south and put pressure on the enemy's flank defenses.
On the other side, the 7th Infantry Division, which was blocked by the 38th Army, had received the news and knew that the 24th Infantry Division was gone.
At this time, it was meaningless for the 7th Infantry Division to go to Gaoyang, so they thought of withdrawing from the battle.
But the volunteer troops blocking them could not get rid of them. When they wanted to move forward, they blocked them and refused to let them go. Now that they want to withdraw, they still pester them and refuse to let them go.
Because the commander of the 38th Army had not received the news at this moment, he did not know that Li Qiufan's side was finished. He only thought that the 7th Infantry Division wanted to take a detour to reinforce.
The order received by the 38th Army was to block the 7th Infantry Division and prevent it from going to Gaoyang for support.
Since the order is not to let the 7th Infantry Division go to Gaoyang, it is impossible for the 38th Army to give way regardless of whether the opponent is going forward or taking a detour.
If you want to go through from the front, I will block it. If you want to go around, I will entangle you and prevent you from going around. The commander of the 38th Army has one idea, that is, to pin the 7th Infantry Division to death. Pocheon.
It wasn't until the order from the Volunteer Army Headquarters arrived that the commander of the 38th Army knew that the battle over the First Corps was over. At the same time, he also understood that the 7th Infantry Division of the Beautiful Country really wanted to leave.
The order given by the Volunteer Army Headquarters to the 38th Army was to wait for the Fourth Army in Pocheon, and after its arrival, they would go to the junction of the enemy's defense lines to divide the enemy's defense line.
Although Li Qiufan proposed to let the Fourth Army carry out interspersed and divided operations alone, the boss was worried that the Fourth Army would be under too much pressure, so he asked the 38th Army to go together.
After understanding what was going on, the commander of the 38th Army immediately withdrew all his troops and gave up his entanglement with the 7th Infantry Division.
After getting rid of the entanglement of the 38th Army, the 7th Infantry Division quickly withdrew towards the third line of defense.
Originally, Li Qiufan wanted the Fourth Army to scare them, but he didn't expect that before the Fourth Army arrived, the 7th Infantry Division received the order to withdraw.
The reason why the 7th Infantry Division withdrew was also because of him. The First Army's continued advance southward put great pressure on the commander of the beautiful country, fearing that it would penetrate his own rear line of defense.
Therefore, the 7th Infantry Division was transferred back and went to the Yuantu National Brigade defense line area to intercept the First Army.
But Li Qiufan didn't know all this. After the Fourth Army arrived in Pocheon, he received the news that the 7th Infantry Division had withdrawn long ago.
"Correspondent, inform the First Army to stop advancing. The 7th Infantry Division of the Beautiful Country should be heading towards them!"
After receiving the news of the withdrawal of the 7th Infantry Division, Li Qiufan pondered for a moment and then said to the correspondent.
He accurately guessed the arrangement of the commander of the beautiful country, and then immediately stopped the First Army.
The First Army immediately stopped moving south after receiving the order, but the commander of the beautiful country was very angry after receiving the news.
Because he transferred back the 7th Infantry Division to intercept the First Army in order to destroy it.
The main task of the 7th Infantry Division is not to intercept but to contain, and the beautiful country commander also mobilized the 1st Marine Division in the rear, waiting for the First Army to take advantage.
Although Li Qiufan did not guess the specific plan of the beautiful country commander, he also realized that the 7th Infantry Division was heading for the First Army, so in order to avoid risks, Li Qiufan stopped it directly.
The First Army can be said to have walked away from the gate of hell. If it is really surrounded by the 7th Infantry Division and the 1st Marine Division, it will be really difficult to escape.
Because the Fourth Army went to the enemy's joint division battlefield, only the mountain division and armored division were left behind the First Army.
And two tank battalions of the armored division, two air defense battalions and a heavy artillery brigade all followed the Fourth Army.
Therefore, once the First Army is surrounded, there will not be many subsequent support troops at all.
And the enemy can quickly mobilize troops from the third and fourth lines of defense to block the mountain division and armored division.
Fortunately, Li Qiufan stopped the First Army in time, otherwise the consequences would be really disastrous.
On the other side, after the Fourth Army and the Thirty-eighth Army joined together, the two armies crossed towards the junction of the enemy's defense lines.
Along the way, two tank battalions led the way. The two armies were able to kill the gods and Buddhas, directly penetrating the junction of the enemy's defense lines.
After the Fourth Army and the Thirty-Eighth Army entered their predetermined positions, the Volunteer Army Headquarters also issued an order for a general offensive, asking all units to abandon insertion and division and launch an attack directly against the Southern Korean troops from the front.
