Zhu Tian: Beginning to Cross the Changjin Lake

Chapter 150: Completely annihilate the British 'Royal Heavy Tank Battalion'!
At the same time, on another battlefield not far away, a penetration force of the 50th Army successfully penetrated in front of the British 29th Brigade's "Royal Heavy Tank Battalion".

All the soldiers wore their cotton coats inside out, so that the white lining made it difficult for them to be discovered by the enemy when they lay in the snow.

At this moment, the British Army's "Royal Heavy Tank Battalion" was also retreating in a hurry. The heavy tanks rumbled over the ground, and the ground was shaking slightly, as if there was an earthquake.

"The enemy is coming, destroy these tanks first!"

"Get the blasting tubes and explosive packs ready. Demolition personnel should go up immediately and prepare for battle."

"Yes!"

The demolitionists carefully moved to the front line.

"Chirp~!"

As a shining signal flare soared into the sky, the volunteer soldiers ambushed in the snow opened fire.

"Boom~!"

There was a loud explosion, and the jeep in front exploded and caught fire, and the flames illuminated the entire valley red.

The road was also blocked, and the volunteer army demolition experts behind rushed out and threw themselves towards the enemy tanks without hesitation.

"Boom~!"

A loud explosion was heard, and the front tank was successfully blown up by the demolitionist. As a result, the road was completely blocked and the tanks behind could not move at all.

At this time, more and more soldiers rushed towards the enemy's tank group.

"Da da da~!"

Intensive gunfire continued to rang out as the soldiers fired fiercely at the tanks.

Bullets hit the tank like raindrops, making clanging sounds and splashing sparks.

Ordinary bullets are naturally unable to cause fatal damage to these tanks, and cannot even hurt them at all. The shooting is only to cover the demolitionists and disrupt the enemy's vision.

The brave soldiers took advantage of this opportunity and successfully rushed forward, forming groups of three or four to attack a tank.

The soldiers stuffed blasting tubes and explosive packs under the tank.

"Boom~! Boom~!"

Violent explosions continued to sound, and tanks were destroyed one after another.

But these heavy tanks are not so easy to blow up, after all, they have thick skin and flesh.

However, the soldiers did not give up. If they failed to blow up the tank in one go, they would blow it up again until the tank was completely destroyed.

Moreover, the soldiers were all experienced. They inserted the blasting tube directly into the tank wheels and blew off the tracks. Even if the tank was not destroyed, it was completely lying down and unable to move, making it much easier to deal with it.

Faced with such a dangerous situation, the enemy fought back desperately.

The machine gun was aimed at the surrounding volunteer soldiers and kept firing.

The turret was constantly rotating and firing at the Volunteer Army's positions.

The battle was extremely fierce, with soldiers constantly falling on the way to the charge.

And among these tanks, there is also a giant flamethrower tank.

Streams of flames spurted out, and several soldiers who approached were instantly burned into firemen and died heroically.

The surrounding soldiers looked at this fire-breathing monster and did not retreat. They all gathered around it.

The tragic death of their comrades made them furious, and they just wanted to blow up this big guy as soon as possible.

A soldier took advantage of the tank's blind spot and successfully approached the giant flamethrower tank.

The soldier observed it for a while and thought that even a five-kilogram pack of explosives would hardly blow up such a big guy.

He looked up and saw that the hatch on the top of the tank was not completely closed. The soldier immediately climbed onto the tank. At this moment, the steel plate of the tank was extremely hot. The soldier immediately felt a burning sensation and his face was as painful as if a layer of skin had been peeled off.

However, this brave soldier did not retreat. He endured the severe pain and climbed onto the roof of the giant tank.

Surprisingly, this giant tank is also equipped with a radio speaker.

At this moment, the horn sounded, and the voice was still in Chinese.

"Chinese, come to Seoul! There are girls in Seoul."

"Chinese, surrender..."

Obviously, this radio loudspeaker was used to persuade the volunteers to surrender, and they even resorted to the beauty trap.

The soldier thought: I am going to Seoul, but not for the girl, and certainly not to surrender, but to destroy you.

The soldier didn't have time to think, he pulled the fuse, picked up the explosive pack and stuffed it into the tank.

The enemy inside suddenly discovered the soldier, raised his pistol, aimed at the soldier and shot him.

Although the distance was very close, the British soldier seemed a little panicked and missed the target, with the bullet flying past the soldier's armpit.

When the explosive pack fell into the tank, the enemy's terrified shouts were heard from inside.

The soldier jumped directly off the tank, rolled on the ground, and hid far away.

"Boom~!"

A violent explosion sounded, and a huge fireball enveloped the entire tank from the inside out.

The loudspeaker that was still shouting was also blown up and the sound stopped abruptly.

After a fierce battle, all 31 tanks of the British Army's proud "Royal Heavy Tank Battalion" were destroyed.

The entire "Royal Heavy Tank Battalion" was wiped out in one fell swoop by the soldiers of the 50th Army of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, without a single one escaping.

The battle lasted until the morning of January 1. The various volunteer troops advanced rapidly and gradually approached Seoul, forming an arc-shaped encirclement of the city.

Ridgway, who had been traveling around the front lines until this moment, also fled back to Seoul in a panic.

At this moment, Lieutenant General Ridgway was also in a state of panic. He said helplessly: "I knew that if they launched an attack, Seoul might not be able to be defended, but I never thought that they would reach Seoul so quickly."

"Has this information been reported to Commander Mac?"

A staff officer nearby replied: "According to your instructions, the information has been reported truthfully."

Lieutenant General Ridgway nodded with satisfaction, but his mood was very low.

He didn't expect that the volunteer army would give him such a great gift just after he took office.

A staff officer said: "At present, all units have suffered heavy losses. Our army has been completely defeated and can no longer stop the enemy's offensive."

Another staff officer said: "It's all the fault of the Korean army. These guys are just a bunch of rabble and can't stand a single blow."

"They collapsed at the first touch, which put us in a very passive position."

"Yes, yes, yes. Those guys are not good at fighting, but they are first-rate at running away. Now they are ahead of us."

Originally, Ridgway wanted to use the Korean army as cannon fodder and let them be at the forefront, but he did not expect them to collapse at the first touch and flee in a panic. Now they have run ahead of the coalition forces, and judging from their posture, they have no intention of stopping at all.

As a result, Seoul could not be defended at all, and even their defeated soldiers could not gain a foothold in Seoul.

Because the main force of the Volunteer Army was already catching up with them.

At this time, a staff officer ran over and said, "The commander called back and asked us to abandon Seoul and retreat south."
