Chapter three hundred and twenty seventh

Thank you sincerely for Dongdongdao, Xiling King, lzc880210, cute little brother, Zizhu for the reward!

Thank you everyone!

【327】There are strange and the clouds are treacherous.

On the vast Korean plain with undulating hills, the green at the turn of spring and summer dyes the hills and plains emerald green, and the wheat seedlings are shiny and radiant, spewing out a pungent aroma of wheat...

The clear river flows, and dense thatch grows on both sides. The transparent water quality allows you to see the moss on the bottom of the water and the aquatic grass between the cracks of the rocks at a glance.

The elderly Armani brought the women at home and came to the tributary of the Han River with buckets to fetch water and wash clothes.

A white-haired Armani was squatting by the river, about to wash clothes, when suddenly, the old lady rubbed her eyes, almost thinking that she had read it wrong. She called out: "You women, come here to see, why did the river water change color?"

As a strong and unsolvable smell of blood came along the river water, the clear Han River water was dyed into a strange light red by the blood flowing down the upstream.

Gradually, floating corpses began to appear in the bloody river, and dead bodies in southern military uniforms walked down the river like driftwood. The number of corpses floating in the river almost covered the entire river surface.

This terrifying scene made the women present tremble. Even Armani, the oldest and most courageous, couldn't help but be moved when she saw the red river, and her wrinkles on her face became deeper.

Armani, who had seen the world, recognized the military uniform and frowned and said, "Don't be afraid, it's a white dog in the south! It's good to die, it's good to die! Our People's Army has won the battle."

………………………………………

As the Korean People's Army began to launch a general attack on the early morning of June, the entire 38-degree north latitude line had been opened from Wengjin, Kaicheng and Songyuri. As the infantry division of the Korean People's Army surged into the gap, detoured towards the two wings of the Southern Army's defense line, the gap was torn larger and larger. A Soviet-style motorized infantry regiment of the Korean People's Army had formed a mixed tank armored brigade with more than 200 T34 tanks. The armor torrent unstoppable driving from the gap in the front line and penetrated into depth, occupying the logistics and transportation nodes in the south, until it broke through to Seoul.

Recently, the Korean team, caught off guard by the fierce artillery fire of the Korean People's Army, suffered heavy losses, and was now inserted into the heartland by the Soviet-style deep breakthrough tactics. Finally, the entire 38-degree front of the Southern Army completely collapsed! The defeated soldiers who retreated from the front line fled wildly, filling up the pits and valleys. The Korean team, who were completely disrupted during the escape, had to retreat again and again in order to get a breather. However, in the pursuit of the Northern People's Army's desperate efforts to go south, they could never get the time and opportunity to reorganize the troops and build a new defense line.

The People's Army Militia Division, which served as auxiliary operations, was clearing the riverside roads at this time. They threw the bodies of southern soldiers piled up into the Han River directly, saving time to dig holes.

………………………………………

Before the war, according to the analysis of the Soviet chief military officer in North Korea, Gemenkov: In terms of scale, South Korea deployed 41,000 troops on the 38th degree north latitude line, of which more than 30,000 troops were deployed in the direction of Pyongyang. From the perspective of the special surnames of the army, the forces on the Pyongyang line tended to be mechanized and armored, which could be said to have outstanding attack power and weak position defense. In the eastern line, the troops were arranged in a mix of mountain divisions and special forces. From the deployment of troops and the characteristics of the army, it can be clearly seen that South Korea is advancing recklessly and is likely to adopt military actions of armed forces to advance northward and armed unification.

Judging from the first half of 1950, border conflicts provoked by the south became more frequent and intensified. South Korea had completely abandoned the military security regulations on the 38th parallel. Military provocations became normalized, with the characteristics of increasing invasion. As the soldiers patrol soldiers in the north were injured, annihilated and captured again and again, the mountainous areas in the rear were constantly infiltrated by special forces in the south, highway bridge buildings were blasted, and villages under the people's regime were brutally slaughtered, and this battle on the Korean Peninsula was already on the verge of arrows.

Just on May 28, before the implementation of Jin Yuecheng's combat plan, military provocations in the south had reached a new level, and legion-level combat had begun.

On that day, the South Korean army launched a raid in Jijing with five battalions, seizing several highlands north of the 38th parallel. These highlands are easy to defend and difficult to attack. From a tactical perspective, the value of these highlands is obvious. This crazy action of snatching territory in the south made Jin Yuecheng extremely firm in his belief in implementing the combat plan to the end.

"Rampant, I want to see how many days you can be rampant!" Jin Yuecheng was still young. His powerful fists were clenched tightly, his face was twitching, and he gritted his teeth tightly, and excitedly squeezed out these words from the cracks of his teeth.

The day before the war, Syngman Lee was in the Presidential Palace in Seoul, and was very proud of the smooth progress of his "Northern Expedition Plan".

"What am I talking about? The mud legs in the north are no match for the loyal and brave righteous men of the Republic of Korea! Look, they retreated so quickly that all the high grounds have fallen into our hands!

On October 31 last year, I said on the American cruiser "St. Fore" that the division between the north and the south must be resolved by war. From the combat effectiveness currently shown in the north, I think this great Northern Expedition is necessary to be carried out in advance! There is no need to delay the American reading of next year. Yes! Maybe on July 4 this year, we can start the main offensive of this great Northern Expedition!"

Minister of Finance Li Yong immediately agreed upon hearing this, saying: "Our military expenditure is already more than 50% of the fiscal budget. It would be bad if this situation is delayed for too long."

Lee Seung-man said in a heavy mood: "Yes, these military expenses are all real money. If we cannot make a northern expedition as soon as possible, it will sooner or later drag down our finances."

Cai Bingde, chief of staff of the South Korean Army, hurriedly said: "This advance time span is a bit too large. The current preliminary preparations for the 'Northern Expedition' have not yet ended. At the earliest, it will be mid-July. If you have to be fully prepared, it will probably be until the end of September. If the war starts at that time, the long winter will be a nightmare for the troops! I think it would be better to implement it according to the original plan."

Lee Seung-man said dissatisfiedly: "In another year, what if the combat power in the north increases? Now my Korean Warriors' attack is like snow, and it is unstoppable! I firmly oppose delaying it again!"

Cai Bingde slandered: "Then what battle plan did you propose last time at a meeting? You can change your orders every day, and you can plan to do it! You can just count wherever you fight!"

Of course, Cai Bingde was not that stupid. He said timidly: "As soon as the President's instructions."

Lee Seung-meng said with satisfaction: "I will ask General MacArthur for instructions. I believe that in the face of the devastating victory of the warriors of the Republic of Korea, he will definitely support our just war!

………………………………………

Just a day before the war began.

Moscow.

Kremlin.

After seeing the contour terrain map of the Korean Peninsula spread out in front of him, Stalin spoke to Defense Minister Wasseyevsky: "Vasily, what do you think of Jin Yuecheng's combat plan?"

Marshal Huasilevsky admitted: "According to the report of our military advisory group, the Korean People's Army's offensive preparations are very well prepared and has been completed at present. Moreover, in early May, we replaced all the military officers in charge of military training in the military advisory group with combat experts. With Soviet combat experts, Jin Yuecheng will not lose."

Seeing what Marshal Huasilevsky said in general, Stalin continued to ask: "According to the plan, how sure do you think you are to take Seoul in the first week?"

Marshal Huasilevsky said: "I am not worried about this! Soviet artillery experts are commanding the artillery regiment and infantry division of the Korean People's Army to cooperate in combat. Under such strong pressure, the defense line in the south is like a thin newspaper, absolutely vulnerable! I guess on the first day of the war, the defense line set on the plains and hills on the west side of the peninsula in the south will collapse like a stitch on the sheets!

Once the defense line in the south collapses, the motorized infantry regiment and tank brigade of the Korean People's Army, commanded by Soviet armored experts, will go south without stopping and carry out a large-scale deep assault on strategic areas in the rear. In this case, I think the south has no time to rest and build a second defense line, and will only be chased by the Korean People's Army and be beaten by the butt. Within about two or three months, the Korean People's Army will be able to occupy all of North Korea."

Stalin nodded, and it seemed that he was very satisfied with the combat plan. But after thinking about it, he suddenly asked: "Will the rear be too weak? The main infantry divisions of the Korean People's Army were all interspersing south, which would lead to their weak defenses in the narrow and narrow areas of the west coast."

Marshal Huasilevsky smiled bitterly and said, "Jin Yucheng had previously proposed to China that he wanted China to mobilize about 50,000 Koreans who were exiled to the Northeast to return to China, including two Korean divisions of the Northeast Field Army, but they were rejected by the Chinese. As compensation, the Chinese gave Jin Yucheng a large amount of free arms. According to the information of our highest military officer in North Korea, General Shtkov, the number of American-style arms seized from Chang Kaishen's Kuomintang government-axe army was very large. In terms of rifles alone, they could equip twenty divisions, as well as a thousand submachine guns and 100 75mm howitzers. Jin Yucheng seemed to be satisfied with this, so he no longer asked China to assist those two Korean divisions."

Stalin laughed and said, "I have heard about this. China is so generous. It supports Jin Yucheng's rifles and so many artillery, but it is unwilling to send divisions to fight. It seems that they do not want to annoy the Americans. However, it can be seen that they still hope that Jin Yucheng will win. Mao was bleeding heavily this time, twenty divisions..."

Marshal Huasilevsky said solemnly: "The only thing I worry about now is the reaction of the United States. Currently, there are only 78 surface combat ships in the south and are not capable of carrying out amphibious operations. Therefore, although the defense of the western coast of the Korean Peninsula is empty, it is not a problem. But once the United States intervenes, countless possible surnames will appear."

Stalin's eyes narrowed and said, "Even if the United States joins, we will not lose. On the contrary, this will be a good opportunity."
