Changjin Lake: From Xinxingli to Seoul

Chapter 388 Ridgway's Fury! Chu Yunfei's Cunning Idea! The US Military Makes a High-Stakes Gamble with Delta Force
Seoul, inside the UN Command Seoul Headquarters

"Bang!"

In an instant, the heavy oak door of the command post was flung open, and a young U.S. Army lieutenant staff officer rushed in like a bullet.

His face was deathly pale, and the front of his uniform was soaked with sweat. He gasped for breath as he shouted, "Commander! Chief of Staff!"

Jiuli... Urgent report from Jiuli!

The Second Division of the Han Army… while en route to reinforce Jiuli, they encountered an ambush by a main North Korean regiment behind enemy lines in the Yingchoujian Gorge!

Van Fleet turned around abruptly and strode up to the lieutenant: "What?"
The Second Division of the Han Army, an entire reorganized division, was blocked by a guerrilla regiment behind enemy lines.

What are they good for?!
Then what? "

The American staff officer's Adam's apple bobbed with difficulty, his voice trembling: "The fighting... the fighting is very fierce, the South Korean army... the South Korean army is in chaos."

They...they called for air support under extremely unfavorable circumstances...

As a result... as a result, our air support... made a serious miscalculation!

The bomb... the bomb's impact point was severely off track, it landed... landed right in the middle of the South Korean troops' own dense formation!

"Oh, God!"

Eckelberg gasped, his fingers unconsciously clenching the dossier until his knuckles turned white.

The lieutenant's voice was choked with sobs: "The violent explosion caused heavy casualties to the South Korean army... the front-line troops collapsed instantly!"
Morale has completely collapsed!

The main force of the Second Division of the Korean Army has now retreated in disarray!

It's simply impossible... impossible to reach Jiuli!
As for Jiuli... Jiuli City was left with only one reinforced battalion of our 3rd Marine Regiment, about 1,300 officers and soldiers, because the main force of the 2nd Division of the Korean Army did not arrive.

Just now... just now!
The vanguard of the Chinese Eastern Front Assault Group, the Seventh Steel Brigade, under the personal command of Commander Wu Wanli, was breached in just half an hour!

Jiuli... has fallen!

Deputy Chief of Staff Eckelberg staggered and leaned against the edge of the map table to steady himself, his face drained of color as he murmured, "Half an hour... a sweep?"
A battalion of elite American troops...relying on pre-prepared city fortifications...in half an hour?

Van Fleet slammed his fist on the table, making the pencils in the pen holder rattle. He glared at Ridgway and roared, "This is impossible!"
Those good-for-nothings from Han Ershi!
An entire division was attacked by guerrillas and had to call for reinforcements, only to be blown up by its own troops?
This must be Park Jung-hee!
Coward! Shameless coward!

He should be court-martialed!

No, he should be hanged immediately! As a warning to others!

The veins on his neck bulged, and his voice made the ceiling vibrate.

The command room was deathly silent, with only Van Fleet's heavy breathing echoing in the background.

The U.S. military staff looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock, shame, and a hint of barely perceptible panic.

The news that 1,300 of the most elite U.S. Army soldiers, relying on strong city defenses, were defeated by a Chinese force in half an hour was even more chilling than the rout of the ROK 2nd Division.

Chu Yunfei's lowered eyelashes trembled almost imperceptibly, and the slight curve of his lips seemed to deepen a little.

This former ROC military general was all too familiar with the South Korean army's tactics of preserving its strength and avoiding battle.

For example, in the Battle of Menglianggu, Zhang Lingfu was killed by Li Tianxia in this way.

Park Jung-hee?
What a clever person who knows how to preserve their strength!

He remained silent, like a detached bystander, only gently blowing on the non-existent steam rising from the already cold coffee.

Facing Van Fleet's angry gaze, Eckerberg calmly analyzed, "The Air Force's mistaken bombing is a fact, an undeniable and enormous error!"

This severely damaged the already low morale of the South Korean troops.

Execute a division commander on the eve of battle?
This will only further alienate the remaining South Korean troops and could even trigger a chain reaction of collapses!
"Won't our subsequent defenses require these cannon fodder to fill the gaps in the battle lines?"

As he spoke, he looked at Li Qiwei and said earnestly, "General, the most urgent task is to stabilize morale and find out the truth about the fall of Jiuli!"

This past half hour... has been so bizarre!

Ridgway slowly turned around, neither responding to Van Fleet's rage nor immediately agreeing with Eckelberg, his gaze piercing the second lieutenant staff officer who was almost slumped to the ground: "Half an hour."

Sweep through one of my marine battalions?

How did Wu Wanli manage to do that?

The second lieutenant trembled, forcing himself to straighten up as he tried to recall the fragments of that vague yet chilling urgent telegram from the front: "Reporting to the general!"
According to the scattered accounts of escaping soldiers and the last few fragmented telegrams, when the Seventh Steel Brigade arrived at the outskirts of Jiuli, they did not launch any probing attacks, nor did they even pause!

"No probing?"

A U.S. military staff officer murmured in a hushed voice.

The U.S. lieutenant affirmed, his voice filled with disbelief: "Yes! Without the slightest hesitation!"

Wu Wanli seemed... seemed to completely ignore the possibility of ambushes or pre-laid minefields!

His troops—tanks, armored vehicles, infantry…—pressed forward in a dense, high-flying line, at the height of their combat readiness!

Upon hearing this, the U.S. military staff present couldn't help but gasp.

This is an absolutely insane way of playing!

Exposing their main force to unknown city defense firepower without any reservation?

The U.S. military staff officer continued, "What's even more terrifying is the artillery fire!"
The accuracy and firepower organization of the artillery of the Seventh Steel Brigade of China reached an outrageous level!
Their artillery barrage seemed to have an intimate knowledge of all the key defensive points of our forces within Jiuli City!
The strongpoint inside the breach in the east of the city, the core machine gun nest of the barricade at the crossroads, and the small square where our reserve team was secretly assembled...

These points were almost instantly and precisely covered by shells of different types and quantities!

"hiss……"

Even VanVleet was taken aback.

This means that the enemy's intelligence infiltration and control of the battlefield situation are so precise that it's chilling!
The artillery barrage is not an area attack, but a precise, "surgical" elimination!
The voice of the U.S. military staff officer still carried the echoes of fear: "The covering fire lasted only a few minutes, but our main firing positions, reserves and command nodes suffered heavy losses in the explosions!"
As soon as the artillery barrage extended, their infantry, led by tanks, had already rushed to the breach!

The speed... is unimaginably fast!
They were divided into several arrowheads with extremely skillful tactical coordination and fierce firepower!
Our troops were stunned, and the defensive line was breached in an instant!
Subsequent troops poured into the street fighting, making it a completely one-sided affair.

half an hour……

"The gunfire really stopped after only half an hour..."

A deathly silence descended upon the command room once more, heavier than before.

The shock on the faces of the US military staff gradually gave way to a deep chill.

The name Wu Wanli, along with his unconventional, reckless, yet deadly and precise fighting style, weighed heavily on everyone's mind.

This is not just a fierce general, but a war machine that understands the battlefield and dares and is good at unleashing power to the extreme in an instant!
The sweeping victory in Jiuli in half an hour was not due to luck, but to an overwhelming force built on absolute confidence, accurate intelligence, and terrifying execution!
Ridgway silently turned around and faced the map again.

He had his back to everyone, his shoulders taut like two hard rocks.

On the huge map, the red arrows representing the Chinese Eastern Front assault group seemed to come alive after the breach in Jiuli, piercing the heart of Seoul with unparalleled sharpness.

The Han River, that blue ribbon, became the last natural barrier standing before the torrent of steel.

A chilling pressure, invisible yet as heavy as a mountain, emanated from the map, compressing every inch of air in the command room.

Ridgway's voice finally rang out, low and hoarse: "Gentlemen, do you see that?"
This is our opponent.

Li Yunlong, Wu Wanli... and the invincible main force of the Eastern Front Assault Group behind them, riding high on the momentum of their capture of Jiuli, are heading straight for the Han River!

Seoul was right before their eyes.

As he spoke, he slowly raised his hand, his index fingertip striking heavily on the Han River defense line: "Now, tell me."

How should we deal with this oncoming torrent of steel?
Is it contraction?
Is this the final battle?
Or...should we just sit and wait to die?

The immense pressure made the air in the command room almost stagnate.

Some of the U.S. military staff officers present stared at the Han River defense line on the map, their brows furrowed.

Some looked down at the tips of their leather shoes, as if they could find the answer there.

Some exchanged glances furtively, their eyes filled with confusion and anxiety.

Van Fleet stood with his arms crossed at the other end of the map table, staring intently at the blank area on the south bank of the Han River, his chest heaving, clearly preparing a fierce remark.

Eckelberg opened his notebook, his fingers moving rapidly among the dense data and unit numbers, trying to find the optimal solution from the perspectives of logistics and troop deployment.

Chu Yunfei continued to sip his cold coffee quietly, but behind his lowered eyelids, his eyes flashed rapidly, as if he were calculating something at lightning speed.

The silence lasted less than ten seconds, but it felt like an eternity.

Eckelberg took a deep breath, stepped forward, and pointed to the location of Seoul's core urban area on the map, his tone carrying a resolute determination of fighting to the death:

"General, gentlemen!"

The Chinese army arrived with a great victory, its momentum at its peak. Its main force on the eastern front was deployed in full force, with its sights set on Seoul!
Engaging in a decisive battle with them in the open field on the Han River at this moment is far too risky!

Although the Han River is a natural barrier, there are always weaknesses in a long defensive line.

If a general like Wu Wanli, who is adept at finding weaknesses, were to seize a single opportunity to break through, the consequences would be unimaginable!

I suggest we immediately withdraw all our forces!
All mobile forces that can be mobilized on the western and eastern fronts must be withdrawn!
Together with the existing garrison in Seoul, and relying on Seoul's strong city defense system, they form an impenetrable defensive perimeter!

With deep-seated firepower and ample ammunition and supplies!
We'll hold out to the death!

As he spoke, he forcefully tapped the location of Seoul: "Seoul is not Jiuli!"
Here are permanent fortifications, complex urban buildings, and our last reserves!
By simply retreating inwards, we can create a powerful advantage in interior warfare!

Use the urban terrain to offset the impact and artillery superiority of the Chinese army, and wage a war of attrition against them!

At the same time, a strict order was given to the Third Infantry Division on the western front and the reinforcements on the eastern front to accelerate their approach to us!
As long as we can hold out for ten days, no, even seven!
The outer mobile corps can complete the counter-encirclement of Li Yunlong and Wu Wanli's main forces!

At that time, we will attack from both inside and outside, and achieve victory in one battle!
This is the safest option!
Although we temporarily relinquish space, we can preserve our manpower to the greatest extent possible and buy time for a strategic counter-offensive!

Upon hearing this, Van Fleet turned around abruptly and interrupted Eckerberg without any politeness: "Safety first?"
"Ike, you call this being safe?"

He slammed his massive hand down on the Han River, making the map frame vibrate: "This is the most foolish retreat! It's slow suicide!"

Why cram so many troops and the entire command center into Seoul like sardines in a can?
To hand over all the outer positions and strategic depth?

Ike, do you want Seoul to become the second Berlin?

Once surrounded by the Chinese army, it will be a huge grave!

Air superiority?

How effective is air superiority in the face of brutal urban warfare?

Moreover, how can we guarantee that the troops on the outer lines will arrive in time?

What if they are ambushed?
What if Li Yunlong completely ignores Seoul and only focuses on besieging the city and attacking reinforcements?

Van Fleet's finger traced the blue line of the Han River sharply: "Han River!"
This is our natural, solid, and irreplaceable line of defense!

It is more reliable than any concrete structure!
We should immediately concentrate all available forces—the western mobile forces, the Seoul garrison, the troops that are closing in on the eastern front, and even those South Korean troops who can still catch their breath!
A steel defense line will be built by relying on the pre-established positions along the Han River!
Keep Li Yunlong and Wu Wanli's main forces north of the Han River!

The final battle will take place here!

His eyes gleamed with a gambler's light: "In the wild, on relatively open terrain, we will make full use of our firepower, armor, and air strike capabilities!"

This is the true way to play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses!
We have the capability to severely damage or even annihilate their exhausted main force on the eastern front along the Han River!
Even if... even if the worst happens and we are forced to retreat, there is still a buffer zone of more than ten kilometers between the Han River and Seoul. We still have room to retreat to Seoul and resist based on our last line of defense!

Once they retreat into Seoul, they will completely lose any room for strategic maneuver!
Even though we won the battle, we were besieged in the city, and our actions were restricted.

If we lose, then it's all over!
Therefore, I will never accept retreating!
Only by fighting a decisive battle abroad can we seize the initiative!
Only then can we gain a chance of survival!

Eckelberg retorted excitedly: "You're betting the entire Korean War on a huge gamble!"

The Han River defense line is very long; how many troops would be needed to fill it?
Li Yunlong and Wu Wanli on the other side have just won a great victory and their morale is soaring!
Wu Wanli could crush an elite battalion of Jiuli in half an hour!

What makes you think we can definitely stop his sharp knife at the Han River?

Once the Han River defense line is breached, your so-called buffer zone will be completely useless in the face of the fleeing troops!

At that point, the army will be utterly defeated, and they will lose even the chance to retreat to Seoul and organize a defense!
That would be the real disaster!

A total annihilation!

The fierce argument between the two top-ranking chiefs of staff was like two raging torrents colliding in the command room, each sticking to their own version of events and confronting each other head-on.

The strategist who supported Eckelberg's "ironclad defense" emphasized the feasibility of relying on strong city defenses and reserves to wear down the enemy, valuing stability and preserving strength in anticipation of external assistance.

Those who supported Van Fleet's "Battle of the Han River" were attracted by the prospect of "annihilating the enemy in the field" described by Van Fleet.

They believed that only by taking the initiative could they seize the initiative, and emphasized the enormous risk of losing strategic depth.

The two sides argued endlessly, neither able to convince the other.

The noise grew louder and louder, and the air was thick with the smell of gunpowder; the command center seemed to have turned into a chaotic battlefield. Ridgway remained silent, his back to them, staring at the map.

Just as the debate reached a fever pitch and was about to escalate into a quarrel, the door to the command room was suddenly pushed open again!

This time, a lieutenant colonel staff officer rushed in. Unlike the second lieutenant's fear last time, his face was flushed with an excited mix of ecstasy and disbelief.

The U.S. lieutenant colonel's voice trembled with excitement, even cracking slightly: "General, Chief of Staff!"
Great news! Fantastic news!

The main naval formation of the Pacific Fleet has arrived at its anchorage off the coast of Incheon!

hum!
All the arguing in the command room instantly ceased, and everyone's eyes were focused on the lieutenant colonel like searchlights.

The lieutenant colonel took a deep breath and shouted with all his might, "The Delta Force special operations unit carried by the fleet has arrived!"

Seven thousand of the most elite special operations soldiers!
Bringing the latest equipment!
Request immediate engagement in battle!

Van Fleet was the first to react, his anger instantly replaced by overwhelming joy: "The seven thousand elite Delta Force troops have arrived?!"

Very good!
God bless America!
This is a true force to be reckoned with!

It's the decisive force!

He suddenly turned to Ridgway: "General! With these seven thousand of the sharpest daggers, our decisive battle on the south bank of the Han River will be even more powerful!"

They excel at rapid maneuver, precision strikes, and deep-seated sabotage behind enemy lines!
It's perfect for tearing apart Wu Wanli's seemingly tough battle line!

In the decisive Battle of the Han River, the scales of victory have tipped in our favor!

Eckelberg immediately retorted, but his voice, now less gloomy and more confident, was tinged with the news: "No!"

Delta Force's value lies in its elite status and rapid response capabilities!
Deploying them to the large-scale frontal battlefield outside the Han River would be a huge waste!

They should serve as Seoul's last shield and its deadliest hidden arrow!
By deploying them in the core area of ​​Seoul and taking advantage of the city's complex terrain, their special operations capabilities can be maximized!

Combined with the city's defense forces, this is enough to make any enemy that breaks into the city pay an unimaginable price!

This is the most effective way to utilize this precious power!
"If we hold Seoul, we will be invincible!"

VanVleet stood his ground: "Shield?"
Ekko, all you think about is guarding!
The best defense is offense!
Using the Delta as a shield instead of a sharp blade?

What a waste of natural resources!

In the decisive battle of the Han River, we need them to create a breakthrough and destroy the enemy's command nodes!

Instead of waiting for the enemy to reach the city before engaging in street fighting!

"A decisive battle in the open field is too risky! Every Delta Force soldier is incredibly valuable; we can't afford to waste them like this!"

"Staying in the city and surrounded, even the most elite troops are like caged beasts!"

Just as a new and more intense argument was about to erupt, Ridgway finally turned around slowly.

His face remained expressionless, but something deep within his eyes seemed to be ignited by the name "Delta".

Ridgway did not immediately express his opinion. His gaze slowly swept over Van Fleet and Eckelberg, who were arguing, and over the staff officers with different expressions, before finally landing on Chu Yunfei.

Ridgway said, "General Chu, you are the person here who knows the Chinese army best, especially General Li Yunlong."

You have clashed countless times on the same battlefield.

Now, the Eastern Front Assault Group is advancing aggressively towards the Han River.

General Van Fleet advocated for a decisive battle in the field of the Han River, while General Eckelberg advocated for consolidating forces and defending Seoul to the death.

The arrival of the 'Delta' seems to have given both sides more confidence.

So, as an advisor, based on your understanding of Li Yunlong, Wu Wanli, and their troops...

What do you think we should do next?

Should they fight to the death on the banks of the Han River, or hold out within Seoul?
Or... do you have a better insight?

In an instant, all eyes in the UN forces' Seoul command headquarters focused on Chu Yunfei.

Van Fleet frowned slightly, his expression scrutinizing.

Eckelberg's eyes probed, hinting at expectation.

The other staff officers had varying expressions, some curious, others with barely perceptible contempt.

The air seemed to freeze; you could hear a pin drop.

Chu Yunfei raised his head and met Ridgway's gaze, which seemed to see right through people: "General Ridgway, the insights of the two chiefs of staff are both based on profound considerations, and they have also pointed out the difficulty and key to battlefield choices."

A decisive battle abroad, with relentless ambition, can lead to complete victory.

By focusing on internal stability and taking steady steps, we can safeguard our foundation.

The two may seem contradictory, but they are not necessarily irreconcilable.

He slowly walked to the huge map of the Seoul area, his slender fingers lightly touching the thick blue line representing the Han River: "The Han River, a natural barrier."

If their main force is allowed to break through easily, Seoul will be in grave danger.

If we commit all our forces to a desperate defense, our main force will be tied down on the riverbank, leaving us with no strength to respond to changes in the overall situation.

His finger traced the Han River, pointing all the way to the heart of Seoul, finally stopping at the symbolic outline of the city: "And Seoul is my command center, it cannot be lost."

The elite of Delta Force is a key force in turning the tide of battle; it cannot be underestimated.

In my humble opinion, perhaps we could… adopt a more inclusive approach, killing two birds with one stone.”

As he spoke, Chu Yunfei pointed his finger sharply at a relatively minor ferry crossing area on the Han River defense line: "Here, we can 'show weakness' a little."

While ensuring the stability of other major crossing points, deploy some South Korean troops or units with slightly weaker combat capabilities here to feign weakness and lure the enemy deeper into the territory!
"Send the 50,000-mile-long Steel Seventh Brigade...this sharpest blade, cross the river!"

"Let him come over?!"

Van Fleet exclaimed, his eyes filled with astonishment.

Chu Yunfei's voice suddenly took on a confident tone, as if he had a plan in hand: "Exactly!"
The Seventh Steel Brigade is in high spirits, and Wu Wanli is known for his aggressive and relentless attacks. Once a breach is made, he will relentlessly advance towards Seoul!

Once their vanguard and main force successfully cross the river, disengage from our Han River garrison, and form a salient…

His finger slashed sharply behind the Han River ferry crossing, like a guillotine falling: "Our main force on the Han River defense line will immediately launch a powerful counterattack!"

Close the breach again! Make sure to block their main force completely on the north bank of the Han River!
At the same time, Delta Force, which had already been deployed in the core area of ​​Seoul, immediately launched an attack!
With the support of an elite force, they swiftly encircled Wu Wanli's isolated and deeply entrenched Steel Seventh Brigade from the flanks and even the rear!

This puts them in a desperate situation, with fortified cities in front, the Nu River behind, and enemies on both sides!

Use the main force of the entire Han River defense line to lock down most of Li Yunlong's eastern assault group.

Use the Delta Force, the sharpest blade, combined with the iron fists of the Seoul garrison, to cut through and shatter the Steel Seventh Brigade of Wu Wanli!

If this plan succeeds, Li Yunlong's Eastern Front Group will suffer a major blow, and its offensive momentum will be completely crushed!
Our main force still firmly controls the Han River defense line and the core of Seoul!

He surveyed the silent command room, his tone softening with a hint of humility as he inquired, "This strategy can not only resolve the crisis in Seoul, but also provide an opportunity to severely damage or even annihilate one of the most elite forces in the Chinese army."

Despite the risks, the opportunity to fight is fleeting.

What do General Ridgway and the others think?

quiet!
Deathly silence!

Chu Yunfei's plan, like a boulder thrown into a deep pool, stirred up a silent yet turbulent undercurrent within the UN Command.

The expressions on the faces of the U.S. military staff were incredibly varied: shock, doubt, contemplation, realization, and even a hint of barely perceptible fear and...excitement.

This plan is too audacious!

Too risky!

It's like dancing on a knife's edge!

Did they deliberately allow the enemy's most elite vanguard to cross the river?
If this goes too far, the consequences will be unimaginable!
But if it succeeds...

"hiss……"

Eckelberg gasped, the first to recover from his shock.

He stared intently at the dividing line Chu Yunfei had drawn on the map: "Actively open the gap... lure their vanguard in... then close the door and beat them?"
At the same time, lock down their main force?
This...this does indeed balance Fan's 'attack' and my 'defense'...but!"

He suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, piercing straight at Chu Yunfei: "General Chu! The greatest risk lies here!"

How can you guarantee that the 'dogs' we release won't turn into a crazed, uncontrollable tiger that directly destroys Delta Force?

Once Delta can't withstand the onslaught of the Seventh Steel Brigade, the Seoul command center will be directly exposed to Wu Wanli's cannon fire!

Can we afford this risk?

Once the command post is destroyed, all defenses and reinforcements will be rendered useless.

VanVleet also calmed down from the shock, his brows furrowed, his eyes darting between Chu Yunfei and the map: "Ike is right!"

The key to this plan is that the released Seventh Steel Brigade must be annihilated quickly and effectively within the pre-set encirclement!

Otherwise, it would be like inviting a wolf into the house!
The ability to annihilate this "wolf" force depends entirely on the combat effectiveness of Delta Force and the coordinated efforts of an elite unit.

General, the Delta Force is new to the area, and we are not yet certain about its actual combat effectiveness in large-scale conventional offensive and defensive battles on the Korean battlefield!

They may excel at special infiltration, raids, and decapitation strikes, rather than directly confronting a well-equipped, highly motivated, and extremely capable enemy elite force on a pre-arranged battlefield!
This bet... is too big!

Ridgway's fingertips remained firmly planted on the Han River defense line.

His gaze was as deep and cold as a pool, repeatedly scanning the huge map, as if calculating the probability of success and the cost of collapse at each step.

Chu Yunfei's plan was like a potent drug, full of deadly allure.

It can not only resolve the immediate offensive, but also severely damage or even eliminate the opponent's sharpest claws.

But the risks are equally alarming, the core issue being whether that unfamiliar "delta" can shoulder this heavy responsibility.

Time ticked by, and the air pressure in the command room was so low it was hard to breathe.

The U.S. military staff remained silent, awaiting the final decision of the Supreme Commander.

Finally, Ridgway slowly raised his head and said slowly, "War itself is the greatest adventure."

Without risk, how can there be great results?

As he spoke, his sharp gaze swept over Van Fleet and Eckelberg, finally settling on Chu Yunfei's face.

It was as if trying to see through that calm face to discern the true intentions beneath.

Li Qiwei said slowly and deliberately, "General Chu's plan takes into account both decisive battle and defensive defense, and directly targets the enemy's vitals."

Although there are risks, it's worth a try!
As for Delta Force's combat capabilities... actual combat is the best testing ground!

His gaze shifted to an area northeast of Seoul on the map, marked with small red dots representing the activities of North Korean forces behind enemy lines: "Intelligence indicates that a large number of North Korean forces behind enemy lines are converging on the outskirts of Seoul from multiple directions."

They acted swiftly and were more likely to arrive at the outer perimeter before Li Yunlong's main force.

Order Delta Force to advance immediately!
Their first task is not to fight the Chinese, but to fight the North Koreans!

I want to see a crushing victory!

A victory powerful enough to intimidate all potential enemies!

They used the blood of the Korean troops behind enemy lines to prove they deserved the title of 'elite'!

Let us all see if their knife is sharp enough and hard enough!

He turned around abruptly, his gaze sharp as lightning, sweeping across the entire room: "Strategic deployment, proceed immediately according to General Chu's plan!"
The General Staff immediately drafted a detailed plan: to select a pre-arranged "flooding" crossing point on the Han River and deploy feinting troops.

Accurately calculate the troop and firepower required to seal off the breach.

Plan the operational area and contingency plan for the coordinated encirclement and annihilation of the 7th Steel Brigade by the Delta Force and the Seoul garrison!

Synchronous order: The 3rd Division of the Western Mobile Corps shall return to Seoul at all costs and within the original timeframe!
All troops, enter maximum combat readiness!

"Yes, sir!!!"

Almost simultaneously, everyone in the UN command headquarters stood at attention and responded in unison.

Chu Yunfei lowered his head slightly, concealing the fleeting glint of excitement in the depths of his eyes.
