Zhu Tian: Beginning to Cross the Changjin Lake

Chapter 59 Take advantage of the situation!

Although Wu Wanli is a troublemaker, he has a strong ability to adapt to the battlefield.

He also has good talent. Not only is he a great pitcher, but his shooting skills have also greatly improved during this period.

This is inseparable from the credit of Li Guotao's careful teaching. This kid often asked Li Guotao for advice on shooting when he was free.

"Bang~!"

A crisp gunshot rang out, and a fleeing enemy soldier was shot down.

Wu Wanli rushed into a room in front with a gun in hand and checked carefully. All the enemies inside had already run away.

Only the one who didn't have time to escape was shot dead by Wu Wanli, and was already dead lying at the door.

But at this moment, Wu Wanli's attention was instantly attracted by a movie poster on the wall.

Of course he didn't recognize the words written on it, but in the dim light, the picture was clearly visible.

A scantily clad blonde woman was looking at him with a smile on her face.

However, Wu Wanli didn't even look at that delicate face.

All you can see are rolling white mountains.

Where had Wu Wanli seen such a painting? He was so absorbed in it that he could not help swallowing.

At this time, Yu Congrong walked in quickly, shouting, "What are you dawdling for, kid?"

As he said this, he pulled Wu Wanli's head and pushed him aside.

"What are you looking at?"

"This thing? It's so white! And so big!"

"Platoon Leader Yu, how can they be so shameless as to wear so little clothes?"

Yu Congrong didn't hear what Wu Wanli said at all, and just stared at the painting.

Just as they were watching intently, Wu Qianli walked in quickly, pushed Yu Congrong aside, glanced at the painting on the wall, and glared at the two of them.

"Look! What the hell are you looking at?"

"Brother, her butt is definitely showing."

"piss off!"

Wu Qianli took a quick glance and saw some food scattered on the table, including biscuits, chocolates, and some candies.

Wu Qianli quickly grabbed it, divided it among the three of them, opened the package directly, and stuffed it into their mouths in two or three bites.

During this period of time, they haven't had a full meal for a long time. Even on the battlefield, they will not be polite if they have the opportunity to eat something. After all, they are not made of iron and they also need to replenish their physical strength.

"Captain~!"

Wu Qianli suddenly heard someone calling him and quickly swallowed the food in his mouth.

He rushed out holding a submachine gun, only to see Gu Cangzhou and a few others rushing towards him.

"Captain~! That's indeed the enemy's headquarters."

"Their officers were trying to run away, so a few of us climbed up from that side and launched a surprise attack, killing them all."

"A colonel, a lieutenant colonel, and I think two majors were killed, as well as some other officers."

Hearing this, Wu Qianli was also overjoyed and said with a smile: "Well done, we have destroyed the enemy's headquarters, and they have lost their unified command."

Wu Qianli took a quick glance and didn't see Li Guotao, so he couldn't help but ask, "Where is Li Guotao?"

Gu Cangzhou turned his head and looked, but he didn't see Li Guotao following him. He frowned and said, "He said he would be here soon, why hasn't he come yet?"

Gu Cangzhou took out a military flag from his arms, handed it to Wu Qianli, and said, "Company Commander, Li Guotao said that this is the flag of the enemy's Polar Bear Regiment, and asked me to bring it to you." Wu Qianli took a quick look at it, but he didn't understand it. However, he saw that it was embroidered with many fancy things and the workmanship was still very delicate, but it was a little worn out, and it was probably quite old.

Although Wu Qianli didn't recognize it, he guessed that this thing must not be an ordinary flag.

"Let's put it away first! If it really is their flag, then we have accomplished a great feat."

Gu Cangzhou quickly said: "This is the credit of our third class."

Wu Qianli said unhappily: "Don't worry, I won't forget you!"

At this time, Mei Sheng rushed over and said, "Captain, the enemy seems to be escaping."

Wu Qianli observed the situation around him and found that the enemy that had just fought fiercely with them had begun to retreat.

Further away, other enemy troops also began to gather on the road.

Wu Qianli raised the telescope and observed carefully. He saw that the road was crowded with a large number of enemy vehicles, moving slowly southward.

Colonel McLean has issued the order to retreat, and even though he is dead, the troops are now strictly executing this order.

Because they also knew that under the current circumstances, they could no longer defend Xinxingli.

No one wanted to stay here and wait to die, so they had no choice but to retreat and escape.

Wu Qianli ordered: "Continue to attack down the mountain and try to eliminate more enemies."

"Yes!"

The soldiers responded loudly.

……

On a distant mountaintop, the division commander was holding a telescope and observing the situation on the battlefield.

A staff officer ran over and said, "Report to the division commander, now part of our assault troops have successfully entered Xinxingli, and the enemy's defense line has been broken."

"But the enemy seems to be preparing to retreat. Judging from the current situation, they are gradually gathering their forces and preparing to retreat southward."

The division commander put down the telescope and said with a smile: "I have seen this situation."

"Chief of Staff, judging from the situation on the battlefield, they must want to abandon Xinxingli and retreat southward."

The chief of staff nodded and said, "According to the battle report from the friendly forces, the main force of the 1st Marine Division is now also retreating to the south. They should retreat to the vicinity of Hagaru-ri and reorganize their forces."

"So I suspect they also want to take the opportunity to break out and retreat to the Hagaru-ri area."

The division commander smiled and said, "Order all attacking units to concentrate their forces and occupy the positions in Xinxingli first."

The chief of staff asked, "Should we do our utmost to stop the enemy's retreat?"

"No need!"

The division commander waved his hand and said, "If we try our best to stop them, they won't be able to escape and will stay in Xinxingli and fight us to the death."

"The enemy is still very powerful, and they have so many tanks and armored vehicles. These things standing there are like steel fortresses."

"They have complete fortifications in Xinxingli. It is not wise to fight them here."

"Since they want to escape, just let them go. There are friendly troops along the way to stop them. It won't be easy for them to successfully retreat to Hagaru-ri."

"As long as they leave Xinxingli, these guys will be like turtles out of their shells. It will be much easier for us to deal with them."

"By then, we can completely annihilate them on the road from Xinxingli to Xiajieyuli."

The chief of staff nodded and said, "I understand! I will pass on the order right away."
