Chapter 26: Let Chiang come out of the cage

As soon as I walked into the division headquarters of Commander Pang, I quickly felt the joy of Commander Pang and various combat staff, correspondents, and telephone soldiers in the tunnel. Everyone had an excited expression on their faces, as if they were celebrating the festival. And I was sure that the reason why they were so excited was definitely related to the battle I fought yesterday. Because as soon as I walked into the tunnel, the soldiers coaxed me around, and several soldiers were still saying:

"Look, Captain Cui is here!"

"It was him who fought a war!"

"It's so good to fight!"

...

Commander Pang smiled and waved to me, signaling me to sit down in front of me, shaking the cotton coat draped over his shoulders and said happily: "You're so busy! I know you didn't sleep all night last night, so I didn't want to wake you up and let you sleep a little longer, but if you don't tell you good news, I'm not calm in my heart!"

"Teacher Pang is out!" I quickly stood up and said, "It's okay to wake me up in situations. Now it's a war, so how can I sleep? I've been used to marching and rushing on the road for a few days and nights before. It's nothing!"

In fact, I have been lazy during the period of time in the hospital. I don’t know how much I want to get into the warm bed and sleep well!

"There is time to sleep!" Commander Pang nodded and said, "Because Americans, we have completely beaten down!"

"Oh! Did the US military give up the attack?" Although this was the result I had expected, I still feel happy now that I have confirmed it.

To be honest, Van Vritte's method of attacking our highlands at all costs and using all possible methods is indeed a bit scary. Especially special forces, helicopters, a large number of snipers, and the sniper master who was so powerful that I was still a little scared at this time. These resources are also extremely valuable to the US military, so they rarely appeared in previous wars. Even if they appeared, they were used to seize important targets in a major battle. Now, they were sent to fight for a 649.8 highland that was not important to the enemy...

Van Vritte's madness really made me busy. His playing style seemed to be fighting against me with the most advanced equipment and the most elite troops of the entire US military. And I believe that if Van Vritte had sufficient attack time because of time, maybe I would have been defeated.

"They can't fight!" Commander Pang threw me a newspaper full of English and said, "The US President has returned to China, and the battle yesterday also made the headlines in the newspaper at the first time. Just as we thought, yesterday's battle was indeed Van Vreet's 'performance', and reporters from all over the world were staring at it! Isn't this? Not only the United States, but newspapers around the world are talking about this battle! You are arguing for our volunteer army all over the world!"

"Well!" I took the newspaper, and I felt a little disbelief.

I had thought before that the impact of this battle would not be small, but I really didn't expect it to be so big.

After some searching through it, I found that not only the front page, but also the entire newspaper’s articles, large and small, were almost discussing and analyzing the battle yesterday.

Some say: "T-shaped mountain (a nickname for the 649.8 highland by the US military, because it looks down from the air and is called T-shaped mountain, also known as T-shaped mountain). The Zhongzhang team defended in the deep valley made the coalition army look disgrace. The attack planned by the coalition forces of the "air, tank, artillery, and invasion coordinated combat experiment" was undoubtedly repelled by the Zhongzhang team!"

There are many of them that take advantage of the situation and are extremely sarcastic and sarcastic: "This attack by the coalition forces was repelled by the Chinese teams that had been smashed by the coalition artillery fire and aircraft. The amount of ammunition of General Van Variett once again did not perform the expected effect! General Van Variett's attack unfortunately became a real-life death game..."

"Before the war I received a "Combat Process Timetable", but unfortunately, by the end of the entire battle, I found that the combat process was always at the first step..."

Some journalists even expressed the calls from American citizens, and the American people were righteously and sternly condemning and questioning the US side: "Is this offensive a legitimate military operation, or is it a senior guest performing a gladiator performance with the lives of soldiers? If it is a military operation, what is its strategic goal?"

It seems that the American people still have some military knowledge, because they will at least know how to question the strategic goals of the military's military operation! If this is put into our country, what I think will be the call to "destroy American imperialism" over and over again.

What I thought to myself was that when Van Vritte saw these reports, I didn’t know what expression it would have! But it didn’t seem to matter anymore, because this war that made the US military lose all its face in front of people all over the world made Variett no longer have the face to sit down as the commander of the Eighth Army. This crazy guy will resign in more than ten days and return to China.

Looking back on the wars in the past, Van Vritte was indeed a respectable opponent. What the American people and congressmen don’t know is that the “Van Vritte ammunition” they have always questioned is the most direct reason for the heavy casualties of our volunteer army in the battle!

"The better news is this..." Before I could finish reading the newspaper in a hurry, Commander Pang then handed a telegram to me.

I glanced at the telegram and couldn't help but stand up from the chair: "What? The US military has taken the initiative to ask for the resumption of negotiations with us?"

"That's right!" Commander Pang nodded with a smile, "Or, do you think I'm full and have nothing to do, just shouting you out of bed for this newspaper?"

"I think the US military can take the initiative to resume negotiations so quickly, which is inseparable from your efforts!" Commander Pang pointed at me and said, "You boy, the American special forces can't be asked for under your hands. I have heard that their sniper troops are almost wiped out under your hands! From this point of view, I think Eisenhower is very clear about the degree of solidity of our defense line!"

Although Commander Pang's words were a bit inconsistent, I still understood what he meant. Although the American people were questioning the strategic goals of this battle, I knew very well that Eisenhower was indulging Van Vreet to carry out this so-called sea, land, air, tank, and step coordination experiment was a large part of the reason why Eisenhower was indulging in Van Vreet to carry out this so-called sea, land, air, tank, and step coordination experiment was to test the solidity of our military's defense line.

But now, the facts are in front of us. The US military has no choice but to use helicopters to subdue special forces, which is not considered the geographical advantage and combat preparation advantages they have... In such an advantage, the battle is still like this. It can be explained in any case that the modern equipment of the US military can do nothing to the tunnel fortifications of the China Team, and the frontal defense of the China Team is unbreakable!

I think Eisenhower saw this clearly, or he realized that if he chose war, it would be impossible to break through our army's defense line in a short time. Then the only way out is negotiation!

"But American imperialism never gives up the essence of their aggression..." Commander Pang continued: "Just as we received this telegram, we learned that the US troops were withdrawing from the Seventh Fleet in Taiwan! This is a speech Eisenhower just delivered to the world on the radio..."

As he said that, Commander Pang handed me a document. I took it and saw it read: "The Seventh Fleet of the United States actually wants the US Navy to act as the defensive force of China. In this situation, it is illogical and meaningless to ask the US Navy to assume the defense responsibility for the Chinese Communist Party, because that will make those *** people more comfortable killing our soldiers and our soldiers of our United Nations allies in North Korea. Therefore, I suggest that the Seventh Fleet should not be used to block China. Let me make the facts clearer. This order does not imply that we have an intention to invade. I just declare that we have no obligation to protect a country that fights against us in North Korea..."

Seeing Eisenhower's words, I couldn't help but laugh.

I know this incident very clearly. This is what is called "release Chiang out of the cage" in history! The reason why the US Seventh Fleet entered Taiwan was known to anyone who understands it! Now when our army invested most of its troops in North Korea, the US military suddenly wanted to withdraw from Taiwan and declare that they "had no obligation to protect *** China"...

Who is protecting this?

The purpose is self-evident, which is to take advantage of the fact that our millions of troops are in North Korea to let the latch of the Seventh Fleet open and let Taiwan stab us in the back. The fact is true. In 1953, the spy attacks launched on the mainland reached its peak, with more than 200 cases in the first five months!

Only then did I realize that Eisenhower's power is not about how capable he is, nor about his decision-making, but about how he can actually say that such a very obvious purpose is that the United States "has no obligation to protect China"! It seems that on this battlefield where both sides are fighting hard, China still has to thank the United States for its protection...

Looking at my bitter smile, Commander Pang smiled thoughtfully. He pointed to the document with his finger and said, "This is the mask of hypocrisy of American imperialism, which is a powerful evidence of their aggression. On the one hand, they demanded to resume negotiations with us, and on the other hand, they made small moves behind the scenes. The purpose is very obvious, which is to try to use these crises to coerce us to force us to make concessions at the negotiating table! But..."

After taking a sip of tea, Commander Pang continued excitedly: "Just as Comrade Zhou Enlai said, our Chinese people love peace, but are not afraid of war! If the US government still implements this policy, then we will continue to fight against them in this regard, so that every war plan of the imperialists will be hit by a shattered blow, and every invasion will be completely defeated. Only then can we force the enemy to stop, achieve the peace that the Chinese and Korean people hope for, and achieve real victory!"

I was stunned when I heard what Commander Pang said. I have always thought that Commander Pang didn’t look like someone who could speak these great principles. I didn’t expect that when I say these words, I am not much worse than Li Pinghe’s!

It seems that people in this era will say a few words like this, but it’s not the time! But this is normal. As the environment is influenced by the influence of the eyes, even I will say it...

"So what the superior means..." Commander Pang finally made a summary: "We want to fight and fight and talk to each other. We are not afraid of dragging. The more we drag down, the more we will be, the more unfavorable it will be for Eisenhower. Now the initiative is on our side. As long as we fight for a few more months, the United States will be forced to loosen the negotiation table, make concessions on the issue of prisoners of war, and agree to repatriate all prisoners of war in our army!"

"Yes!" I nodded and responded.

Of course I understand what Chief Pang said. The reason why Eisenhower's campaign was successful was entirely because of his promise to "end the Korean War as soon as possible and decently." If the Korean War drags down indefinitely, then he, as a president, is afraid he will not be able to become a president. Therefore, we just need to fight this situation, and the United States will not be able to withstand it within a few months!

But unfortunately, I know that the result of the matter is not as optimistic as Commander Pang thought. The reason is... Dostalin will die in another way. Once Dalin dies, the Soviet Union is the first to solve its own internal problems, and he has no time to take care of the Korean battlefield. Most of the bullets and shells on the Korean battlefield are imported from the Soviet Union...

So, the final result is that both sides have to give in!

Of course, I must not say these things. Just kidding, if you know when Stalin died, then I will not become an immortal!

"Sign up with the current situation of resuming negotiations!" Commander Pang gestured to the map on the desktop and said: "The superiors believe that there will be no major battles during this period. In the future, the fronts of both sides may become cold guns and cold guns again, which is exactly the time when you, a sharpshooter, take effect!"

"No problem!" I replied.

Although I know that the future situation is not as Commander Pang said, because the negotiations are wishful thinking by the United States, Lee Seung-man did not agree. Moreover, the US side is accustomed to the attitude of a master, just asking Lee Seung-man about anything, and even unwilling to let South Korea participate directly. Many agreements are "notified" by Lee Seung-man after they are reached. This is doomed to prevent the final negotiations from going smoothly. In a month, the two sides will soon fight again due to the prisoner of war!

"At the same time..." Commander Pang smiled at me in a mysterious way: "Through this battle, the superiors also realized the importance of sharpshooters in battle. In addition, our Wendengli area is very important, so I decided to form a cold gun force and the cold gun force of the 26th Army will be left to you with full command!"

"What?" Hearing that I couldn't help but jump up like I was stabbed by a needle, he looked at Commander Pang in disbelief and said, "What Commander means is... Is the cold gun unit of Brother Hu Zu's brother under my command?"

"That's right!" Commander Pang nodded: "They were originally trained by you and cooperated well with you! And their performance in the 26th Army was average, and their performance under your hands was particularly outstanding! So the superiors felt that their troops might play a greater role under your hands!"

"That's great!" I couldn't help but wave my fist. This is great news for me, and I even excite me more than resuming negotiations. With them, I can say that I'm a big bosom, so I don't have to worry about being restrained everywhere on the battlefield of snipers!

"And..." Commander Pang continued: "In order to enable you to better exert combat effectiveness on the battlefield, the superiors plan to re-equip the carbines equipped with night vision devices to you for use..."

"Night Vision Device!" I didn't know what to say when I heard the words of Commander Pang. I kept reading those carbines equipped with night Vision Devices. I asked them when Hu Zudi and others came. From their mouths, they found that the batch of carbines had been handed over when the 26th Army returned to China.

This makes sense. Such a good batch of guns, and they are also high-tech products, will never let the 26th Army bring them back to China. But I feel so distressed. This gun has reached someone else's hands. Is there any hope to come back? Now I heard that my superiors are going to reassign them to me again, and I can't help but feel like I've lost it and gained it back!

"Look at your excited look!" Seeing me, Commander Pang couldn't help but smile, "Those equipment you seized were just handed over to you again now. Can you make you happy like this?"

"Teacher Pang, you don't know!" I replied embarrassedly: "The soldiers all said that they should treat guns as their wives on this battlefield. Look..."

As I said that, I waved the rifle in my hand and said, "I have a wife in my hand now, and my superiors want to assign a wife to us. Do you think I can be unhappy?"

With a coaxing sound, the soldiers around me were all amused to laugh.

"I'll make it clear!" After a while of laughter, Commander Pang tapped his index finger in the air a few times and said, "The best equipment is given to your army. If you don't show some results, don't blame me for taking back these equipment!"

"Yes!" I stood up and saluted Teacher Pang happily.

When I walked out of the division headquarters, I felt like I was a different life. Not only was there a cold gun force like Hu Zudi around me, but the entire situation on the Korean battlefield changed only in one night. All these changes seemed to be just because of the small battle yesterday.
