Yes, this tactic was copied from our great People’s Volunteer Army.

Thinking back to those days, due to problems such as the lengthening of supply lines and the use of Li Qiwei's "magnetic tactics", I entered the Korean ministries in the late five battles and was forced to slow down the offensive and gradually switch from strategic offense to strategic defense to recuperate energy.

Ruiduoshi's United Army launched a fierce and sudden counterattack as our volunteer army gradually retreated.

Different from previous counterattacks, the United Army is a bloody and brave division that has experienced World War II. After experiencing the nightmare of our volunteer army, it secretly learned the tactics that our army is proud of.

In the past, even the roundabout penetrations formed by large-scale armored group troops were faster and more fierce.

The battlefield still continued his iron rules. Faced with the sudden change of tactics of the United Army, the Volunteer Army was obviously caught off guard, and soon suffered a heavy loss. The 3rd, 9th, and 19th Corps of the Volunteer Army, each division

, a total of about 400,000 people, were forced to retreat across the board.

How could the United Nations let go of such a fighter opportunity? It immediately dispatched 6 armies, 17 divisions and 3 brigades, totaling about 340,000 people, to pursue our volunteers.

In order to buy my retreating army time to move in and deploy defenses, the 63rd Army was ordered to stop the rising United Army in Cheorwon.

Cheorwon is not only the most important transportation hub of our army on the 38th Line, but also stores almost all the supplies of the volunteer army. Once Cheorwon is lost, hundreds of thousands of our volunteer army will not only face the dilemma of being surrounded and annihilated, but also

There is a danger of running out of ammunition and food.

Therefore, there was only one way before the 63rd Army - to defend Cheolwon.

The 189th Division was the front-line team of the 63rd Army, and it was also the most heroic and tragic team in the Cheorwon blocking battle. They were ordered to hold Seed Mountain to the death for at least three days.

The 189th Division is facing an armed force of nearly 50,000 people from four divisions, including the US Cavalry Division, the 25th Division and the Canadian 25th Brigade. In terms of firepower, there are more than a thousand artillery pieces and tanks.

187 vehicles, and air control is completely in the hands of the United Army.

On this frontal battlefield of more than 20 kilometers, on average, each kilometer has to withstand the impact of more than 2,000 United Army troops plus nearly 60 artillery pieces and 8 tanks. Also, do you know the amount of ammunition Van Fleet has?

As for the combat power of the joint forces participating in the war, let’s not talk about anything else. You know, cavalry division one! With “one” as the designation, there is no doubt about its terrifying combat power and brilliant achievements.

It can be said that the United Army was fully prepared for this penetration attack. Obviously, it was aimed at the main artery of the volunteer army. On the other hand, the defending 189th Division suddenly received an attack during the march.

Upon receiving the order to stop the enemy, Chun Chun responded hurriedly without any preparation at all.

In terms of troop strength, due to the continuous battles, the entire division had only 9,400 troops, one at a time, and the enemy's strength ratio reached a terrifying 5 to 1. What's even more terrible is that the 189th Division was ordered to rush to Seed in the face of danger.

In the mountains, the entire division was exhausted, and had not even had enough to eat for several days.

In terms of weapons, the 189th Division is a typical light infantry division among our volunteers entering North Korea.

Well, in human terms, you need cannons but not cannons, tanks but not tanks. Marching depends entirely on your legs. A few mountain cannons and grenade launchers of moderate caliber, and rocket launchers are all the heavy firepower. Facing the heavily armed coalition forces

*, it cannot be described as simple.

In terms of positions, the Seed Mountain defended by the 189th Division is said to be a mountain, but it is actually a small hill with a not-so-steep slope. Tanks can easily drive up the hillside. As for the mountain, it needs depth but not depth, it needs fortifications but not fortifications, and it needs supplies.

No supplies.

On the one hand, they want a position with nothing, but on the other hand, they are such a powerful enemy. It can be said that it is a miracle that 189 can hold on to the enemy's charge!

However, such a miracle allowed the 189th Division to survive for three days.

The person who accomplished all this, the commander of the 189th Division, Cai Changyuan, adopted such a whimsical tactic that was "unprecedented and unprecedented" - the "nail-pulling" tactic.

To put it simply, it means disbanding multiple people on the spot and taking the platoon as a unit, such as a

Like nails, scattered on this battlefield about 20 kilometers wide and 20 kilometers deep, like a goddess scattering flowers, they used their flesh and blood to build more than 200 crude positions.

That's right, there are as few as 30 people in each position and no more than a hundred people. Such dispersion of troops is simply the same as seeking death. But this, with no firepower, no depth, and no reinforcements, is

The only way for the 189th Division to delay the U.S. offensive.

In the words of Commander Cai: "With more than 200 large and small positions, even if they were to take them out one by one, it would take the U.S. military three days to take them out!"

Since May 30, the United Army Frontline Commander-in-Chief Van Fleet gave an order, and the United Army immediately bombed the Seed Mountain position of the 189th Division regardless of the cost. More than 4,000 tons of artillery shells achieved success.

The reputation of "Van Fleet" for its ammunition capacity.

Millimeter-caliber howitzers exploded on the Zedong Mountain position one after another, shaking the earth wherever the shells hit. Even the weakest 105 howitzer, when it hit, created a big crater, along with objects within ten meters.

They were all thrown away. Almost instantly, flames and dust intertwined on the position, covering the sky and the sun.

After flattening Seed Mountain by a few centimeters, Van Fleet was satisfied. The United Army immediately launched a charge against the 189th Division's position. If you call it a charge, in the words of Commander Chu Yunfei, it's called:

"Rush forward and harvest the corn!"

Unfortunately, Commander Chu, who cooked a pot of steel broth for Brother Yunlong, failed to receive the corn from Brother Yunlong, and the United Army also failed to harvest the corn from the 189th Division.

After several hours of shelling and consuming thousands of tons of artillery shells, the U.S. military excitedly rushed to the front line of our 189th Division. After more than ten minutes of fierce fighting, they finally occupied the first blocking position.

However, what made Van Fleet extremely frustrated was that the blocking position was simply too crude. There were no fortresses or machine gun positions, no permanent fortifications, a trench that was not too long, and a few cat-ear holes to avoid artillery fire.

That's all it has. What's even more speechless is that there are only more than 30 infantrymen in this line of blocking positions, which are still lightly armed, and there is not even a mortar inside.

And there were just over 30 people here, armed with weapons that could almost be thrown into the garbage heap. They suffered under the constant bombardment of heavy artillery for several hours, endured, and held on to their position. Although they lost their position in the end,

However, they still managed to kill dozens of members of the United Army in a chaotic battle.

It is no exaggeration to say that even though you are defeated, you are still honored.

Looking at the not-so-steep mountains that stretched for more than ten miles, Van Fleet's heart palpitated for the first time.
