Watergate Bridge, Pump Room (U.S. Army Command Headquarters)
U.S. Commander Marshall held his chin and stared at the Watergate Bridge defense map. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, showing a trace of pride.
"Sir, our defense of the Watergate Bridge is airtight. There is no way that those damn volunteers will blow up the bridge deck."
"If the volunteers still dare to come, those beaten corpses will be their fate!"
US Army Adjutant Ball looked at Marshall with a smile and said flatteringly.
Seeing that Marshall didn't respond, Ball cleared his throat and was about to continue to compliment him, but was interrupted by Marshall waving his hand.
"The defense of Watergate Bridge is by no means airtight. As long as there are capable people in the volunteer army, they will definitely find the weak point."
Marshall said, moving his eyes to the right, staring at the direction of the water pipe leading to the water pump room.
"This...sir, I will go down immediately and instruct the soldiers to strengthen the defense of the thick water pipes and never let them come in from there."
U.S. Army adjutant Ball followed Marshall's gaze and immediately broke into a cold sweat on his back, and rushed out in a hurry.
"return!"
Marshall frowned and immediately stopped Adjutant Ball's behavior.
"Sir, our defenses there are empty. If the volunteers really break through, you may be in danger..."
Bauer was a little unsure of what Marshall meant, scratching his head but hesitated to speak.
"But this also gives us the opportunity to wipe out these volunteers, doesn't it?"
"Bauer, do you know what kind of gun is the most deterrent?"
"It's a gun that's loaded with bullets and aimed at our hearts, but it didn't pull the trigger!"
Marshall took out a pistol that shone with black iron, played with it, and said.
"Sir, what do you mean, let the volunteers come in, annihilate them all, and make them completely lose the ability to blow up the Watergate Bridge?"
Bauer pondered for a moment and was shocked. He suddenly guessed what Marshall was thinking.
"But...is it really worth dealing with a remnant army with such a big fanfare?"
Bauer recalled the volunteers who failed to bomb the bridge before, and felt a little scornful.
He admitted that those Chinese soldiers were very brave.
However, those small groups of volunteers with poor equipment, shortage of cotton clothes, and weak combat strength can be suppressed with firepower.
"Snapped!"
"Idiot! When was it your turn to question me!?"
Marshall's face darkened, and he slapped Ball hard on the face, his eyes filled with disgust as if he were looking at a fool.
"Do you think General MacArthur sent me here just to guard the Watergate Bridge?"
"Internationally, the 'ghost' force of the Volunteer Army has greatly damaged the prestige of the United States."
"The old gentlemen in Europe are starting to look at the Far East. If we fail again..."
After Marshall finished speaking, he took a deep breath, and his mind was filled with the two turmoils of Britain and France who clamored for independence.
"That little military god of the Volunteer Army, Wu Qianli, must die! This is the exact words General MacArthur telegraphed to me..."
After Marshall finished speaking, he waved his hand a little tiredly and asked Ball to go down and prepare.
"Yes! China's ghost troops will surely be wiped out under the holy light of God!"
Bauer nodded heavily, with a fierce look in his eyes.
On the Watergate Bridge in Far Northeast Korea, two gamblers with extremely unequal powers began to place all their bets...
If the U.S. Army wins, Wu Qianli and the 7th Interpenetrating Company will be wiped out, the U.S. Army Group on the Eastern Front will flee, and U.S. international prestige will be greatly restored.
The Soviet and Eastern European media that originally praised the 7th Intermediate Company will be slapped in the face, the morale of the volunteer army will be greatly damaged, and the future of New China will be even more precarious.
If Wu Qianli wins, the first army formation of the US military will be destroyed, and the current political situation in the United States will be in turmoil.
China will rely on this battle to shock the world, and may achieve a great victory in advance and end the Korean War earlier than in history!

Near Watergate Bridge
Wu Qianli was leading the reconnaissance platoon, taking advantage of the cover of night to quietly approach the Shuimen Bridge.
Different from the other two roads, Wu Qianli is close to the water pipe leading to the water pump room, which is more difficult, longer and more dangerous.
When Wu Qianli led the army to a position with a few hundred meters left, his footsteps suddenly stopped.
He quickly raised his right hand, and with a combat gesture, the soldiers of the reconnaissance platoon immediately fell down in the snow.
The late night snow mixed with the whistling wind was falling one after another. As soon as everyone lay down, they shivered from the cold.
"Brother, why don't you keep going forward?"
Wu Wanli looked at the motionless Wu Qianli and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"Don't make a sound."
Wu Qianli put his finger up to his mouth, signaling everyone to be quiet, and looked into the distance.
Sure enough, at this moment, a huge dazzling beam of light came and hit their hiding place.
Once they had just slowed down a little, they might have been beaten into pieces by the US military who had discovered it in advance.
"so close……"
Wu Wanli sighed in his heart and looked at Wu Qianli with admiration.
However, after the light beam passed, Wu Qianli still pressed his hand down and raised his ears, listening to the subtle sounds not far away.
"rustle……"
Hearing only a very slight sound of stepping on the snow, Pinghe immediately clenched the rifle in his hand alertly, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
"They are probably sentries posted here by the US military. Don't shoot and deal with them quietly."
After Wu Qianli expressed his meaning with fighting gestures, he immediately took out the bayonet at his waist.
Hearing this, Pinghe nodded secretly and got ready.
"There are only four people..."
Wu Qianli listened to the footsteps for a while and immediately made a judgment in his heart.
Pinghe obviously heard it and told the other soldiers not to act rashly, and he and Wu Qianli could just deal with it.
When there are more people, there will be more noise and more bad things will happen.
Not far away, the patrolling US military sentries were walking around talking and laughing without much warning.
"Oh, Jimmy, those Chinese troops are so funny, they actually want to blow up the bridge with their guns."
U.S. Army noncommissioned officer Andy thought of the bridge bombing troops suppressed by fire, and couldn't help but grinned and said with a smile.
"That's right, those Chinese troops just relied on the superiority of the human sea to defeat us, and they actually thought that they could break through with a small force, huh!"
Another US military non-commissioned officer, Jimmy, snorted coldly, expressing his disdain for the combat effectiveness of the volunteers.
They had just been transported ashore by an aircraft carrier and had never really fought a battle with the volunteers, so they still retained the arrogance inherent in the US military.
"It doesn't matter, you will soon see the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army."
Wu Qianli listened to the sound that was getting closer and closer, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he sneered in his heart.
Soon, the US military sentry was only a few steps away from Wu Qianli and Pinghe, but the accident happened at this time.
"call--"
Accompanied by a whistling sound like a whistle, the biting cold wind suddenly became more violent.
On Wu Qianli's body, the originally relatively stable white cloak was suddenly raised and began to make a hunting sound.
"What?"
The leading American soldier was stunned on the spot, his eyes wide open, and he did not react for a while.
"Do it!"
Wu Qianli jumped up from the snow at the moment when the US military was stunned, and quickly pounced on the nearest US military sentry.
There was a flash of cold light, and the sharp bayonet edge easily cut through the artery of the American soldier, and warm blood spurted out.
At the same time, Pinghe also moved quickly and stabbed the bayonet into the chest of an American soldier.
Before the American soldier could cover his heart, Pinghe quickly kicked him to the ground and pulled out the red-stained bayonet.
"Fuck you! Volunteer army night attack!"
When Jimmy reacted and cursed, Wu Qianli had already rushed to a position less than five meters away from him.
In a panic, he quickly raised the muzzle of his gun, intending to shoot at Wu Qianli.
However, Wu Qianli had quick eyesight and quick hands. He directly dropped his gun, rushed forward, grabbed Jimmy's gun body with his hand, and delivered a violent flying kick.
"Hmm~"
Jimmy hummed, and felt as if his chest had been hit by a high-speed truck. He flew out weightlessly, and his gun was snatched away by Wu Qianli.
"Shit!"
Andy on the other side cursed, clenched his rifle, and wanted to take advantage of Wu Qianli's time to clean up Jimmy, aim at his back and shoot him.
"call--"
However, at this time, a gust of wind approached forcefully and quickly, and the butt of the gun with great force hit his head hard.
"No..."
Before Andy could finish speaking the English syllables, red and white brain matter and blood mist burst out of his head.
It turned out that after Wu Qianli grabbed Jimmy's gun, he directly swung it at Andy with his backhand, which gave the US military no chance to fight back.
On the other side, Pinghe also took advantage of the opportunity to kill Jimmy who was kicked to the ground, and nodded slightly to Wu Qianli.
"Keep going!"
Wu Qianli wiped the blood from the bayonet with the dead American military uniform and waved to the reconnaissance platoon soldiers behind him.
Soon, Wu Qianli and others arrived at the water pipe location under the Watergate Bridge.
A thin layer of ice shards was frozen on the water pipes, and the thick pipes looked very wide, with enough space for two or three people to travel at the same time.
"Brother, while the American devils are not paying attention, let's quickly open a hole and rush in!"
Wu Wanli looked at the beams of searchlights and the countless U.S. military patrols in the distance, and couldn't help but said anxiously.
"Don't worry, there's still one minute and twenty-three seconds left..."
Wu Qianli looked at the slowly rotating hands of the watch and whispered.
The pointer was ticking, and the other two soldiers of the 7th Interleaving Company were gradually getting ready to attack.
…………………………………………
Watergate Bridge North
Yu Congrong looked at the countless searchlights with his binoculars, his face darkened with disgust.
"His grandma just rushed over to her like a young girl who took off her clothes and let others tease her."
"No, tell your comrades, as soon as the battle starts, kill all the shining ones for me!"
Yu Congrong gripped the Browning heavy machine gun and growled.
"Platoon commander, the company commander is not here right now. Our fire platoon doesn't have any sharpshooters, so it might be a little difficult."
The fire platoon soldier Tieniu came forward innocently and whispered.
"Grandma, you're stupid! If you're not sure, just sweep two more shuttles. Don't you know how to fight without a company commander?"
Yu Congrong said, patting Tieniu's helmet with his right hand.
"yes!"
Tieniu straightened his helmet and said with a silly smile.
An old soldier like him has been fighting for too long, and the subconscious idea of saving bullets pops up from time to time, which limits the imagination of firepower tactics.
Soon, several leading soldiers from the fire platoon found themselves not far from the US military position, pulled out grenades and threw them towards the US military.
Inside the position, an American soldier was yawning when a grenade emitting white smoke hit him in front of him. He was so startled that he ran away on the spot.
"Grenade! Be careful..."
He immediately shouted in panic, pulled up his legs and ran outside.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Unfortunately, the loud noise of the continuous explosions sounded earlier, and more than a dozen American troops were blown away on the spot.
In the orange-red firelight, sandbags on countless positions were blown to pieces, and the raised yellow sand filled the entire sky.
"beat!"
Yu Congrong shouted and set up a machine gun to suppress the American troops who wanted to take the lead.
At the same time, a large number of fire platoon soldiers fired at the US military searchlights, and intensive gunfire sounded violently.
Although most of the bullets floated away into the darkness of the night sky, a small number of bullets still hit the searchlights.
"Pong——"
"Pong——"
Accompanied by crisp sounds, the glass fragments of countless searchlights shattered to the ground, and most of the bright north side of Watergate Bridge suddenly became dark.
"The American devils are blind! Pass through according to the predetermined plan and kill!"
Yu Congrong jumped up with his gun in hand, leading the firepower platoon soldiers towards the darker US military position.
…………………………………………
Watergate Bridge South
When the U.S. military officers stationed heard the noise, they immediately ordered hundreds of U.S. troops to rush in the direction of Yu Congrong and others for reinforcements.
However, at this time, Lei Gong, who was holding a telescope, burst out laughing when he saw this scene.
"These American devils have finally taken action. Our gun barrels will freeze if they don't come."
"Give me the order. As soon as the American soldiers arrive at the predetermined position, they will immediately open fire and blow them up!"
Lei Gong waved his hand and roared domineeringly.
Soon, the soldiers of the artillery platoon saw the opportunity and quickly stuffed the mortar shells into the barrel.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
After the muffled sound of the shell being discharged, countless mortar shells soared into the sky, and white smoke filled the air everywhere.
On the bridge, the reinforcing U.S. soldiers were suddenly swallowed up by clouds of fire, and had to be baptized by a new round of artillery fire.
The attacks on both sides of the Watergate Bridge were very sudden. A large number of American troops were quickly attracted by the huge movement and devoted themselves to the defensive attack.
………………………………
At this time, in front of the thick water pipe under the Water Gate Bridge
"It's time, start now!"
Wu Qianli looked at the fire on the bridge and immediately waved his hand and ordered.
"yes!"
Wu Wanli responded loudly, fired the explosive pack, and threw it towards the thick water pipe ahead.
"呲呲......"
The fuse of the explosive pack kept spitting out sparks, and Wu Qianli and others quickly retreated some distance, waiting for the explosion.
"boom!"
There was a loud explosion, and countless white steam surged out of the water pipe, making a violent noise for several seconds.
When the white smoke dissipated, a huge gap appeared, and the water pipe was surrounded by charred black and red marks.
"Pinghe, arrange for a few soldiers to guard near the gap."
"In addition, the others rushed in with me, went straight to the US military headquarters, and carried out the beheading operation!"
With a sharp look in his eyes, Wu Qianli took the lead and rushed into the gap with a Thompson submachine gun in hand.
