"Forget it, I don't need your filial piety!"

Hearing Li Qiufan say that we should honor him together, the old brigade commander glared angrily and said.

"Okay, let's get down to business first. We can't let the enemy escape after spending so much effort. Let's order the troops to pursue them!"

After joking, the old brigade commander was ready for the final decisive battle, and then he spoke to Li Qiufan.

"Yes! Commander-in-Chief!"

After hearing the old brigade commander's words, Li Qiufan immediately saluted with a military salute and called the old brigade commander commander-in-chief.

"get out!"

Seeing Li Qiufan's appearance, the old brigade commander waved his hand towards him and cursed with a smile.

After leaving the old brigade commander, Li Qiufan issued pursuit orders to all units in the name of the frontline commander.

Then the Third Corps, the Ninth Corps, the Thirteenth Corps, and the Nineteenth Corps immediately started moving and continued to surround them to the north.

On the enemy's side, the beautiful country's five infantry divisions and the second cavalry division were marching north, trying to delay time until news from the mainland.

But unfortunately, there was no agreement at all on the mainland, which made the enemy's frontline commander feel cold, and at this time they were getting closer and closer to the bank of the Han River.

And just when the enemy wanted to fight for their lives, discarding all their heavy weapons and crossing the river to evacuate, Li Qiufan came up with four regiments.

The enemy did not expect that the Volunteer Army would move so quickly. They thought that although the high-level leaders of the two sides had not reached an agreement, at least the Volunteer Army in the peninsula would not act rashly.

But they guessed wrong. The high-level negotiations between the two sides had no impact on the old brigade commander and Li Qiufan at all. Because the Military Commission had long made up its mind to give the beautiful minister a memory, the negotiations were not informed to the peninsula at all.

As a result, the old brigade commander and Li Qiufan didn't know anything about the negotiations, and now they were focused on annihilating the enemy and ending the war.

"Correspondent, tell each unit to control the speed of pursuit. Don't chase too closely. Drive all enemy units to the river!"

Li Qiufan had been paying attention to the enemy's position. After catching up with the enemy's troops, he did not directly order an attack. Instead, he asked four corps to chase rabbits and drive all the enemy's troops to the river.

"What are you kid doing again? Why do you have to rush to the river?"

After hearing Li Qiufan's order, the old brigade commander asked him doubtfully.

"We are still some distance from the river, and our encirclement has not completely blocked the east and west directions. I am afraid that the enemy's mobile troops will escape."

After hearing the old brigade commander's inquiry, Li Qiufan smiled and explained the reason.

At this time, the four regiments of the Volunteer Army were like a big net, covering the enemy like fishing.

The enemy troops were like fish escaping from a fishing net, desperately escaping in the opposite direction.

But at this time, the blockade troops on both wings of the Volunteer Army were not in place to form a connection with the banks of the Han River, so Li Qiufan was worried that closing the net too quickly would startle the fish, causing them to start scurrying around.

Although the more chaotic the enemy's position is, the more advantageous it is for them, but Li Qiufan doesn't want any fish to slip through the net and escape. He wants to catch all the enemy forces this time.

"If you keep stalling like this, what if the enemy sees the problem on our two wings and breaks out directly in the east and west directions?"

After hearing Li Qiufan's explanation, the old brigade commander smiled and nodded, then frowned and asked him.

When the old brigade commander heard Li Qiufan's explanation, he immediately understood what he meant, but soon he became worried about blocking the enemy's troops.

Because their two wings did not form a blockade at this time, if the enemy's large forces break through, they may not be able to stop them all.

"Haha, old brigade commander, have you forgotten my armored division? If the enemy dares to escape, we will directly launch an artillery blockade here. Can they escape?"

Seeing the worried look on the old brigade commander's face, Li Qiufan immediately pointed in the direction of the armored division and said with a smile.

"Damn it, I forgot that you are a big dog!"

After hearing Li Qiufan's words, the old brigade commander was stunned for a moment, and then he shook his head with a wry smile and said.

He really forgot about Li Qiufan's armored division. The First Corps was not involved in the encirclement, so the old brigade commander didn't even think about the armored division.

Li Qiufan was reminded of this, and then he remembered that he was still a wealthy man, with three heavy artillery brigades possessing nearly 300 heavy artillery pieces.

Nearly three hundred heavy artillery shelled the blockade, and every tank that entered would be reduced to slag, let alone flesh and blood.

If the enemy didn't want to die miserably, they would definitely not choose to force a breakout.

However, the old brigade commander was overly concerned about all this, and the enemy army did not even think about breaking through from the east and west directions.

It can be said that they are a little scared of being beaten at this moment, and they don't want to fight with the volunteers anymore.

As the enemy troops are now rushing towards the bank of the Han River, they are thinking of crossing the river to the north bank and then evacuating.

In this way, Li Qiufan led four regiments of the beautiful country's five infantry divisions and the second cavalry division to the bank of the Han River. Then the enemy's frontline commander prepared to order the troops to cross the river.

"Correspondent, order the 1st Heavy Artillery Brigade of the Armored Division to keep an eye on the river. If the enemy dares to cross the river, they will shell the river to blockade it!"

"In addition, notify the Second Heavy Artillery Brigade and the Third Heavy Artillery Brigade that they can shell the enemy troops!"

"And give the troops attack orders again, so I can kill these sons of bitches!"

After receiving the news that the enemy troops had arrived on the river bank, Li Qiufan immediately issued orders to the three heavy artillery brigades belonging to the armored division.

The 1st Heavy Artillery Brigade blocked the river to prevent the enemy from crossing the river, while the 2nd and 3rd Heavy Artillery Brigades shelled the enemy and assisted the troops in launching attacks on the enemy.

As Li Qiufan's order was issued, the Second Heavy Artillery Brigade and the Third Heavy Artillery Brigade opened fire brazenly, directly covering the enemy's position with firepower.

The 1st Heavy Artillery Brigade has not moved yet. They just send people to stare at the river. As long as the enemy troops cross the river, they will bombard the river.

As the Second Heavy Artillery Brigade and the Third Heavy Artillery Brigade opened fire, the four surrounding corps also began to move. Each unit blew the charge horn one after another and attacked the enemy troops.

As soon as the enemy was about to start crossing the river, they were caught off guard by two heavy artillery brigades, and then organized a counterattack.

At this time, although the enemy's morale was low and their combat effectiveness had been reduced by several percent, they still had an advantage in terms of weapons and equipment.

After about two hundred heavy artillery pieces began to counterattack, they still caused a lot of trouble to the various units of the volunteer army.

Moreover, the enemy also has a large number of anti-aircraft armored vehicles, most of which are equipped with self-propelled anti-aircraft machine guns. This thing is a nightmare for infantry.
