1949 I am from the future

【369】Who will become weaker and weaker?

Just when the 25th Infantry Division and the 25th Militia Division of the People's Army broke through the defense line on the side of Baisudong in Masan and made a difficult attack on the central area of ​​Masan, the U.S. military had already moved three southward bridges on the Nakdong River—one railway bridge and two bridges. All road bridges were blown up.Based on the results of aerial reconnaissance and the reckless offensive behavior of the People's Army in Mashan, the U.S. Eighth Army correctly determined Kim Il-sung's intentions.Two of the three main infantry regiments of the [-]th Infantry Division of the U.S. Army were thrown into the battle for Mashan. At the same time, a large number of South Korean troops who were organized into the [-]th Infantry Division were also escorted to the battle.

After receiving the order, each US infantry company must bring two South Korean infantry companies for mixed formation.When these South Korean soldiers attacked, they were firstly used as cannon fodder for the charge, and when they retreated, they had to act as victims to ensure the safety of the US military.

These South Korean soldiers were armed by the United States with leftovers from World War II. They wore American uniforms and carried American rifles.Among them, those who are proficient in military skills are assigned to Garand semi-automatic, and the recruits who are pure cannon fodder are loaded with Springfield, the "Springfield" bolt-action rifle replaced by the US military after World War II.

This approach caused a big discrepancy between the statistics of the People's Army's battle results and the statistics of the US-South Korea coalition forces.The People's Army didn't know whether those bloody corpses were real foreigners or native-born locals.

According to the statistics of the People's Army in history, a total of 34420 enemies were annihilated and captured in the first month of the Busan siege, while the figures reported by the United States and South Korea were much lower.

The reason is simple. These South Korean soldiers who were incorporated into the U.S. Army are neither part of the U.S. military establishment nor the South Korean Army establishment. They are the saddest "names" in this war.Neither the deaths of the US military nor the deaths of the South Korean army are counted, which makes the results of the US-South Korea coalition forces more prominent.

In this way, around the circular defense circle of Busan, the two sides hoarded 20 infantry, squandering fresh lives in the tug-of-war.At this moment, as the People's Army rushed into Mashan, the feeding port of this meat grinder was opened in advance.Human life has lost too much meaning here, and is just a series of rising symbols and numbers in the death list.

Major General Keane, commander of the 25th Infantry Division of the U.S. Eighth Army, furiously gave orders to the wires: [

"Yoman! I ordered your 355th regiment to immediately lead the South Koreans of your two brigades to countercharge! Remember! It's an offense! Not a defense!!! You must cooperate with the 356th regiment to take back Baishuidong. Once again, ignore the Yankees pouring in behind you! Hand them over to reinforcements! Whitewater Cave is all I want!"

After reconnecting the phone, Major General Keane continued to order:

"Colonel Hood! You take the 356th Heavy Tank Battalion, cooperate with the 303th Regiment and the 12rd Communication Reconnaissance Battalion of the Group Army, and mix with the new 12th Division of South Korea, and push back the Yankees who rushed into Mashan! I No matter how many casualties the [-]th Division will suffer, I only care about the result! You must do it!"

........................

Masan, the city known as the Odawara of Busan, has become a slaughterhouse at this moment, and life is constantly disappearing in the shuttle and the explosion.

The depletion of the People's Army's troops is very serious. Whether it is the main infantry division or the militia division, they are all struggling in blood and fire. Every step forward costs more than a dozen young lives as a price.

Looking at the two American M19194 heavy machine guns crossing and roaring in front of him, Battalion Commander Han Zhihuan of the 107th Battalion under the Sixth Infantry Division of the People's Army almost cried blood with hatred.The crossfire formed by those two heavy machine guns always kept his troops under the slope of the soil and could not move.If it was not at night, these two heavy machine guns might have caused greater casualties to Han Zhihuan's soldiers.

Just when Han Zhihuan ordered the mortar team to remove the firepower point immediately, the signal soldier brought news that an outflanking force rushed from his right wing, which was Li's puppet army.

"Damn it! Fang Douxi, take a platoon and use soil to destroy the oil barrels that the enemy lit up in front! That thing is so bright that all our assault troops were clearly photographed!"

After Han Zhihuan briefly scolded, he immediately ordered the organization to defend on the spot.He could no longer harden his heart and order the soldiers to charge. The previous three tough charges caused him more than 200 casualties.

Facing the more than 100 South Korean soldiers surrounded by the flanks, Han Zhihuan couldn't help sighing that now Li's puppet army's will to fight seems to have become stronger than before.In the past, only a volley of guns could suppress the opponent's charge, but now you have to keep hitting until about 30 meters, and you can only suppress the opponent after you start throwing grenades, and it is almost necessary to develop to the extent of bayonet fighting before you can shoot. back the opponent.

Han Zhihuan knew from the captives that if the opponent retreated, he would face execution on the spot.Therefore, under the courage and severe punishment of the US military, the enemy's counterattack became more and more fierce.

Before Han Zhihuan finished expressing his emotions, another wave of stragglers with a hundred or so soldiers charged.Seeing the enemy's reinforcements arrive in one fell swoop, they constantly use charges to disrupt the People's Army's forward attack.Han Zhihuan became impatient. If this continued, it would be very difficult for him to withstand the attack from the flank, let alone take down the enemy's firepower.

The stretcher team in the battalion was already very busy, and the wounded were being carried off continuously and sent to the Baishui Cave that had just been occupied in the rear.More corpses of soldiers were dragged one by one behind the slope where Han Zhihuan was.Most of these corpses were bloody and muddy. Some soldiers' corpses had white brains flowing out of the back of their heads while they were being dragged down. Elder...

Han Zhihuan's hard-hearted heart, which had been beaten by the war, was also shattered by the corpse covered in ditches under the pale moonlight. [

"These brave fighters, are they going to sleep like this?"

The smell of blood, feces and urine, pungent gunpowder smoke, and earthy smell are mixed together in Mashan at this moment. This is the smell of a living purgatory and a meat grinder.

........................

James Bell, a war correspondent for the American "Time" magazine, wrote in his "War Field Records":

"The American soldiers were ordered to recapture Baeksudong and bring the North Korean army back to the Nakdong River. Otherwise, the defense of the entire Masan area will collapse, and in turn, the entire Pusan ​​ring defense circle may also disintegrate.

... The American soldiers climbed up the bare hillside, and the god of death was always with them. Some people were hit by quilts and lay down on the spot, howling in a low voice. Laizi's "shot"...

...Ten minutes later, under the intensive firepower and grenade throwing of the North Korean soldiers, the soldiers were forced to withdraw. They scolded the field artillery troops behind and complained that there were too many remaining North Korean soldiers on the hill , I noticed that those South Korean soldiers who were at the front of the line didn't seem to be able to withdraw, don't know where they are now, if they didn't surrender, God bless them...

... After 10 minutes of long shelling, Greg, the commander of the 356 regiment, launched an attack again.This time his tone was very severe, so the number of attacking troops became larger.This time the battle lasted for a long time, and the soldiers persisted for a long time. Although they were constantly losing money, they never retreated... They repeated forward, stop, lie down, get up, and continue to move forward...

…I saw that Captain Mike, whom I interviewed before, was carried down. His throat was punctured from the side, and the blood kept rushing into the air duct, which made his mouth spray blood foam continuously. After the doctor gave him After the throat was intubated, he finally calmed down temporarily...

...this cruel battle is still going on..."

In order to recapture the Whitewater Cave, senior pilots of the U.S. military were ordered to dispatch at night and bombed the area with napalm and rockets hung from fighter attack planes.The b-29 and b-26 bomber formations far away in Japan have also made preparations. They will take off at dawn and carry out rear strikes on the People's Army. Wonsan Oil Refinery, Chengjin Iron and Steel Plant, Zhennanpu Aluminum Plant, Xingnan Synthetic Chemical Plant...

MacArthur demanded that before launching a landing counterattack, the US Far East Strategic Air Force should first turn North Korea into a weak and seriously ill patient...

North Korea, weakened by constant consumption, is in critical condition.
