Allied Forces Command, inside the command hall

"Report to the General!"

"The Eighth Division of Han was defeated across the board, and the Ninth Regiment of the Second Division was almost completely wiped out!"

Chief of General Staff Dole lowered his head and reported with a complicated expression.

"What?!"

"The Korean 8th Division has nearly 7,000 men, more than 3,000 American elites, plus dozens of tanks and armored vehicles. They were eaten by the Chinese *** so quickly!?"

"Fuck you!"

"Where is the commander of the ninth regiment? Where did he break out with his security company? This traitor to America! Shame on you!"

Li Qiwei was stunned at first, then angrily tore up the battle report in his hand, holding his neck and roared angrily.

"General, calm down."

"It is said that the commander of the ninth regiment fought until the last moment and committed suicide by drinking a bullet..."

Chief of Staff Dole sighed and said slowly.

"Kill yourself by drinking bullet..."

Li Qiwei murmured, the anger in his heart gradually subsided, and his mood changed from anger to a little helpless.

Among the many officers in the US military, this regiment commander is already considered to have integrity.

"Damn, it would be great if he used this determination to hold on to Hengcheng..."

After Li Qiwei regained his composure, he looked at the strategic map and sighed.

"General, Hengcheng and Tepyingrimoto on the eastern front are the horns of each other and coordinate defense."

"Now that Hengcheng has been occupied by the Chinese *** team, Diping is a little helpless..."

Chief of Staff Dole looked at the strategic map and analyzed with a frown.

"From a tactical point of view, it is really difficult to defend Toupei-ri, and it will cause heavy losses to the defenders."

"But from a strategic point of view, Toupei-ri cannot be lost!"

"Although the Chinese *** team is at its peak, they cannot continue to fight after all."

"As long as Toiping-ri can hold on for a few days, until the Chinese *** team's logistics supplies are insufficient, they will inevitably retreat."

"At this time, if we concentrate our forces and launch a fierce counterattack, the Chinese *** team will definitely retreat steadily, or even be completely defeated!"

Li Qi slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed through his blue eyes.

"Yes, sir!"

Chief of Staff Dole nodded slightly, understanding Li Qiwei's determination, and then went to the staff headquarters to formulate a specific plan.

Soon, the Allied General Staff Department completed the drafting of the Tupingli combat plan, and Li Qiwei immediately signed and agreed.

After the order was issued, the U.S. military on the eastern front began to adjust its defense line around Dipingli and mobilized a large amount of weapons and ammunition to support Dipingli.

More than five thousand elite Allied troops were crammed into a small flat, and they were equipped with extremely strong firepower.

Shiji also responded quickly, mobilizing the main forces of the Gang 7th Regiment and the 39th Army to outflank them, and soon got close to Touping-ri. …………………………………………

Gangqi Regiment Headquarters

"Captain, the casualty report is much better than I thought!"

"Most of the wounded have no infection, and their healing speed is surprisingly fast. It is expected that they will be able to fight soon."

Mei Sheng handed the casualty report to Wu Qianli and said in surprise.

"Nonsense, this is one of our ultimate permanent rewards for the Battle of Changjin Lake. I'll be scolded if it doesn't work."

Wu Qianli was secretly proud in his heart, but his face remained calm.

"Commander, the fire battalion has replaced the damaged Browning heavy machine gun and replenished the ammunition. This American devil is so fat!"

Yu Congrong leaned over and laughed.

"Yeah, originally I felt sorry for the artillery battalion's artillery shells being used up too quickly, but in the end we captured so many that we couldn't move them away, so we simply left them with the friendly forces."

Lei Gong took a puff of his pipe and said with a smile.

In the battle to ambush the 9th US Army Regiment, the 7th Gang Regiment played an irreplaceable role.

The friendly forces were therefore very humble, allowing the Gangqi Regiment to challenge and seize the loot first, and then leave the rest to them.

The soldiers of Gang 7th Regiment immediately made a big change

New, the best selection of weapons and ammunition, and the firepower is stronger than at the beginning.

If it weren't for the fear that the ammunition would be lost too quickly and the logistics supplies wouldn't be able to keep up, the soldiers of the seventh regiment would have taken all the Thomsons and 3 submachine guns.

"Okay, we did a good job in the battle of Hengcheng, but we can't take it lightly. The battle of Topingli is the toughest one."

Wu Qianli smiled slightly, pressed his hands down, and said slowly.

"Brother, you have said it many times that Toopingri is hard to chew. We have already captured Seoul. Are we still afraid of a small Toopingri?"

Wu Wanli scratched the back of his head and asked unconvinced.

"The recovery of Seoul was entirely due to the defeat of too many American troops in the Battle of Changjin Lake. They were short of troops and had no choice but to shrink their defense lines."

"If the American devils are determined to defend Seoul, we are still fighting outside the city."

Wu Qianli smiled and analyzed Wu Wanli.

"Captain, whether it's a donkey or a horse, it has to be pulled out for a ride!"

"Since Seoul was given away by the American devils, we will see the truth if we storm the Topying-ri they defended."

Yu Congrong waved his hand very domineeringly, his heart full of fighting spirit.

Wu Qianli looked at the others and found that except for Pinghe and Meisheng, they all looked like arrogant soldiers.

"Eh... no wonder our army suffered so much in history. The Battle of Changjin Lake was so good that many soldiers despised the US military."

Wu Qianli smiled bitterly and shook his head, sighing in his heart.

"Captain, according to the reconnaissance battalion's investigation, the U.S. military forces in Toping-ri are definitely more than the two battalions mentioned in the intelligence."

"The U.S. military has sent a lot of reinforcements in the past few days, as well as a lot of heavy firepower and ammunition. I am afraid that Tuipingli has been armed into an iron wall, just waiting for us to run into it."

Pinghe handed over the specific report of the investigation to Wu Qianli and sighed.

"Yes, Commander, the terrain conditions in Toiping are too good, which is not conducive to the deployment of our large army. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack."

"If we attack rashly and cannot attack for a long time, we will definitely suffer heavy losses. Our Gang 7th Regiment may be beaten back to the Gang 7th Company..."

Mei Sheng hesitated for a while and expressed his worries.

"You are right to be worried, but who said that the Seventh Regiment will participate in the Battle of Topyeira?"

Wu Qianli smiled slightly and asked.

"Brother, don't we have to do our best to assist the friendly forces and win the battle on the Eastern Front? We can't just sit back and watch."

Wu Wanli was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.

"I dare to say that the attack on Topyeong-ri will definitely fail!"

"The elite of our seventh regiment just threw themselves into this strangulation, but it didn't help the battle at all."

"Our opportunity lies in pretending to be defeated after the Battle of Toeping-ri, luring Ridgway to launch a counterattack, and then taking the opportunity to target the main force of the US military and kill a large number of its effective forces."

"In this way, we can remain undefeated in the fourth battle, and we can continue to occupy Seoul and draw the battle line near the 38th parallel."

Wu Qianli looked at the strategic map and analyzed it carefully.

"Near the 38th parallel?"

"Brother, can't we fight all the way across and liberate the entire Korean Peninsula?"

Wu Wanli frowned in confusion and asked.

"Silly boy, we are fighting the US military here, and our supply lines are in ruins."

"If we continue to go deeper, there is a risk of running out of ammunition and food at any time."

Mei Sheng shook his head and said helplessly.

"Not only that, even if we win consecutive battles and fight all the way south to Busan, it will only be the advantage of the army."

"The U.S. military can land at Incheon again at any time to cut off our army's retreat. By then, the front will have to be pushed to the vicinity of the Yalu River."

Wu Qianli looked at the strategic map and said soberly.

"Captain, what are you going to do?"

Mei Sheng understood that Wu Qianli had already made up his mind and quickly asked

.

"First of all, send a telegram to Shiji to warn of the situation in Toupei, hoping that the friendly forces will suffer less losses."

"Then, if the Battle of Topyeong-ri is victorious, the Gang 7th Regiment can directly penetrate and build a blocking position at the rear of the US military to block the retreating US troops, and cooperate with the friendly forces on the eastern front to annihilate them!"

"If the battle of Topyeong-ri is defeated, I hope Shiji will mobilize troops and cooperate with the Goseven Regiment to build defensive positions in the Hwacheon area, bite the American pursuers, and make them kowtow and bleed!"

Wu Qianli clenched his fist with his right hand, slammed it on the strategic map, and ordered.

"yes!"

Mei Sheng responded immediately and prepared to send a message to the Chronicle Department.
