Rebirth: I am in Jin-Cha-Ji

Zheng Weishan, as the frontline commander, was responsible for combat operations. However, they were now in need of a cross-border operation, which necessitated a division into two fronts, the eastern and western. Therefore, Wei Hongjun stated, "Zhonghe. The 13th Corps headquarters will be reassigned to the Eastern Front, and the 20th Corps headquarters to the Western Front. The 50th Army will be transferred to the Eastern Front and placed under the temporary command of the 13th Corps. Have the 13th and 20th Corps headquarters quickly formulate a combat plan and submit it to the Zhisi Headquarters."
"Yes."
"Old Deng, the battle plan has changed. We need to communicate with the Central Committee. Send a telegram to explain the situation."
"it is good.
Soon, the 13th and 20th Corps formulated a new battle plan and reported it to the Zhihe Headquarters. At the same time, Chairman Mao sent a telegram to Wei Hongjun on behalf of the Military Commission, fully agreeing with the Zhihe Headquarters' idea and supporting its change of battle plan.
The Chairman requested that in this battle, it would be best to annihilate several US regiments in an organized manner again.
Only by annihilating the US troops in an organized manner can we truly undermine the US military's strength on the Korean battlefield and slow down the pace of US military expansion. As long as the US military forces on the Korean Peninsula are insufficient, the volunteer army should support the North Korean government in establishing a democratic regime in the south.
The Chairman spoke highly of Fang Hushan in the telegram.
He believed that after Fang Hushan's advance south, promoting land reform throughout the region and establishing grassroots democratic governments would be a very effective strategy to compete with the Syngman Rhee government for control. While large Chinese and North Korean forces could not advance south due to logistical reasons, they should support the North Korean government's southward expansion. The Chairman instructed Wei Hongjun to find a way to provide Fang Hushan's troops in the south with weapons, ammunition, and food so that they could establish themselves there.
However, if the North Korean government wants to develop in the south, the most important thing is to strike the US military. Only by striking the US military and weakening its strength can these southward-moving troops survive in the area.
Wei Hongjun called back and told the Chairman that this battle would definitely inflict heavy damage on the US military again, and at least annihilate four US army corps in an organized manner.
After consulting with the North Koreans, Wei Hongjun made a final decision based on the battle plan proposed by Zheng Weishan and Han Xianchu. He requested that all units gradually abandon their frontline positions and allow the UN forces to enter.
But don't give up too much ground.
Just let the UN forces advance a little further.
The Chinese and North Korean forces abandoned some of their frontier positions, much to Ridgway's satisfaction. However, Ridgway was extremely cautious and would not advance blindly. He deployed a long snake formation, allowing the UN forces to advance slowly, putting pressure on the Chinese and North Korean forces.
The purpose of Ridgway's spring offensive was to drive the Chinese and North Korean troops back to the 38th parallel.
But the situation soon changed.
On the evening of April 1951, 4, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, which had been fighting on the defensive, suddenly changed its tactics. The eastern front launched the first counterattack, with the 20th Army advancing from Qingchuan. The 44th Division attacked the puppet 130th Division, the 131st Division attacked the puppet 132th Division, and the 45nd Division penetrated into the Mapingli area, cutting off the th Division's retreating arteries.
This attack was too sudden.
After all, the Chinese army had been on the defensive for the past few days and had lost its frontier positions, so no one had expected this sudden attack.
In addition, the Puppet 4th Division and the Puppet 6th Division were newly formed troops.
There was no real war.
The 130th and 131st Divisions descended from the sky, weaving through the mountain paths and catching Syngman Rhee's puppet army completely off guard. The 130th and 131st Divisions quickly overwhelmed the th and th Divisions. The battle was swift and decisive, ending in just two hours. The ease with which the th and th Divisions were defeated exposed the flank of Syngman Rhee's First Army.
After the 130th and 131st Divisions eliminated the Puppet th and th Divisions, they immediately attacked the Puppet st Army and the Puppet th Division.
The Puppet 5th Division was more combat-capable than the Puppet 4th and 6th Divisions, and possessed more battlefield experience. While the Puppet 4th and 6th Divisions were engaged in battle, the Puppet 5th Division quickly established a defensive line. Because the Puppet 1st Army commander, Paik Sun-yup, quickly determined that the Chinese army was infiltrating, he ordered the Puppet 5th Division to block the attack.
Paik Sun-yup has such a sensitive nose.
After he judged that the Chinese army had launched an attack, the bad premonition he had from the first battle resurfaced. So he quickly reported to Ridgway and then notified the US 45th Division. Unfortunately, it was too late.
44军袭击伪四师和伪六师的时候,正面防御李承晚伪军第一军和美 军45师的中国人民志愿军38军和49军也开始主动进攻。一直 藏匿的炮兵阵地也都露了出来。对着对面的李承晚伪军第一军和美45师进行大规模的进攻。
Now the puppet 45nd Division and the US th Division, which were at the forefront, could not withdraw.
Of course, a smart man like Paik Sun-yup would not let himself be surrounded by the Chinese army. Therefore, Paik Sun-yup abandoned the pseudo 2nd and pseudo 5th divisions and quickly retreated with his own pseudo 1st division.
This was the third time that Paik Sun-yup had escaped by relying on his sense of smell since the outbreak of the Korean War.
Then the 50th Army also infiltrated into Qingchuan.
在青川设立了-条防线,阻击有可能过来的美3师。41军和42军也是全面进攻,打击美2师和美40师。
As the offensive was launched on the eastern front, a full-scale counterattack also began on the western front. The 71st Army attacked the positions of the US allied forces from Wenshan. The 211th Division broke through the positions of the Philippine Brigade and the Dutch Battalion in minutes.
The speed was so fast that it set a record on the Korean battlefield.
A position with 5000 people was captured by the 211th Division in less than half an hour.
The Philippine Brigade collapsed the moment it was attacked, but the Dutch Battalion, which wanted to fight the Chinese army, was suddenly attacked by the 211th Division and more than people were killed in just over ten minutes.
The 71st Army is very fast.
The troops circled around and surrounded Chiang Kai-shek's troops in the front.
同时15军从涟川穿插,43师侧击美2师9团,44师和45师断后。74军穿插到东豆川一带,和15军-起配合正面的41军,围歼美2师。
Of course, the troops on the Western Front also launched a full-scale counterattack.
The situation on the battlefield suddenly changed.
861 surrender uprising
The troops sent by the United States’ allies are really worse than the other.
The British troops are the most powerful.
However, after the 27th and 29th British Infantry Brigades were completely annihilated, the British Army changed its plan. The 28th British Infantry Brigade, which was originally scheduled to be sent to Korea, did not come. Without the British troops, the combat effectiveness of the other units was mediocre.
The Philippine brigade was defeated in 20 minutes, and the other Thai army, which had a larger number of troops, also had no fighting spirit.
They surrendered immediately upon coming into contact with the volunteer army.
Whether it was the Philippines or Thailand, despite having slightly better weapons and equipment, their fighting spirit was not high at all. Furthermore, their armies had little combat experience. Therefore, faced with the unmatched bravery of the Chinese army on the battlefield, they surrendered in a matter of seconds.
The French army was the most powerful of these troops, as the troops sent by France to the Korean Peninsula were selected from the entire Foreign Legion of 8000 people to form a French foreign mercenary battalion of 1065 people.
However, although the French army has strong combat effectiveness, it is the most hated army of the United States. Even MacArthur complained about the French army.
The French army only had a battalion of troops.
But their demands are too much.
They must drink red wine every day, and if they don't, they'll make a scene. There's no other choice but to use transport planes to deliver red wine to the French army, and all of it comes from France. They're picky about what they eat and even the brands of cigarettes they smoke. Even when the French go to war, they appreciate a good time.
The US military really doesn't want the French army.
The unit with the most problems.
However, the French army's combat effectiveness is not fake. This time on the Western Front, the Volunteer Army almost crushed those so-called allied forces with ease - until they encountered the French army, they met their match.
The French army had only a thousand men, and their positions were the most difficult to capture.
Very brave.
However, the French army was too small, and a force of more than a thousand could not affect the operations of more than a dozen divisions on the Western Front. As a result, the 20th Corps on the Western Front successfully surrounded Chiang Kai-shek's troops.
"Old Zeng, I can't contact Commander Huang."
"Huang Jie ran away?"
Zeng Tianjie was not surprised at all.
Those Kuomintang troops that fought against the PLA have cast a shadow on the PLA.
So even though they followed the US troops to fight, Huang Jie and his command center were all behind the troops. As soon as the Volunteer Army troops started to counterattack, Huang Jie immediately turned around and ran, not caring about the situation of the troops in front.
Huang Jie was not worried at all that Chiang Kai-shek would hold him accountable.
Because now Chiang Kai-shek in Taiwan can only rely on these generals who came out of the Whampoa Military Academy. Besides, Huang Jie has a premonition that if the Volunteer Army launches a full-scale counterattack this time, the US military will also fail.
The US military has lost the war, so why should Chiang Kai-shek hold himself accountable?
So Huang Jie led the headquarters to retreat without any burden. Zeng Tianjie guessed that Huang Jie had escaped at the first moment.
"It should be. Anyway, we can't contact Huang Jie. Lao Zeng, what should we do now?"
"Lao Liu, how is the situation in the army?"
Zeng Tianjie looked at his deputy.
Liu Mian said: "There are many complaints in the army. Those people above have sent their families to Taiwan one by one, but our army left the mainland in a hurry, and the families of the officers and soldiers are all in the mainland. Many people are conscripted men and are now sent to fight in Korea. What good things can the officers and soldiers say?
Chiang Kai-shek brought a million people with him when he fled to Taiwan.
But in fact, this ingredient is very complex.
The PLA advanced too quickly, and Chiang Kai-shek was completely unprepared. His escape from the mainland was a complete haste. He was unable to gather many of the troops he had, and ultimately Chiang Kai-shek had no choice but to forcibly take the troops from Fujian and Guangdong.
But even if all these troops were added together, there would only be 200,000 to 300,000 people.
How can this amount of troops be enough?
So when Chiang Kai-shek was evacuating the mainland, he captured a large number of able-bodied men from Fujian and Guangdong. The number of troops that eventually retreated to Taiwan swelled to over 600,000. You can imagine how many able-bodied men Chiang Kai-shek captured along the way.
Chiang Kai-shek also painted a rosy picture for them.
He said that he would lead them to fight back soon, and by then they would all be founding heroes.
The results of it?
Forget about fighting back to the mainland. First, Hainan was lost, then Kinmen, resulting in the loss of over 200,000 troops. Recently, the Chinese military has been gaining increasing fame in Korea, consistently winning battles. Even if Chiang Kai-shek blocked the news in Taiwan, everyone who should have known would have known.
Many officers and soldiers were in despair.
They were different from the top brass of Chiang Kai-shek's group. When they left, they brought not only their families but also their extended family members and servants to Taiwan. One person brought dozens of people with him. Even wealthy and famous celebrities fled to Taiwan with their families.
But what about ordinary soldiers?
There is no place for them, so their families are all in mainland China. For them, mainland China is their home.
"That's good."
Zeng Tianjie was a member of the Whampoa Military Academy's sixth class, but he was also a Party member in his early years. However, due to recuperation from an injury, he lost contact with the organization. Later, during the Anti-Japanese War, they reconnected.
During the Liberation War, Chiang Kai-shek was constantly losing battles, with elite units being annihilated in their entirety. Short on manpower, Chiang Kai-shek was forced to reorganize troops here and there. In early 1947, Chiang Kai-shek dispatched T.V. Soong to Guangdong to reorganize the Guangdong Security Forces, creating five Type A Security Regiments equipped with American-style weapons. These were the 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, and 15th Security Regiments. Because they were Type A units, each regiment consisted of 3200 men. Although nominally security regiments, they were well-equipped and, since T.V. Soong was responsible for their reorganization, were indistinguishable from regular troops.
Zeng Tianjie served in the Fourth Army during the Northern Expedition and had many connections in Guangdong. Therefore, during the reorganization of the Guangdong security forces, he was appointed commander of the 13th Security Regiment. Historically, it was from this position that Zeng Tianjie launched the uprising.
But in this time and space, Chiang Kai-shek failed too quickly.
Therefore, these security forces were brought to Taiwan by Chiang Kai-shek shortly after they were reorganized.
Because these security groups were well-armed and strong, they were given considerable attention after arriving in Taiwan, facing a large number of defeated soldiers and able-bodied men. Of course, Chiang Kai-shek was wary of the Guangdong Army and Zhang Fakui, so he primarily used officers from the Whampoa Military Academy.
In order to control the army, Chiang Kai-shek kicked out all the miscellaneous generals after arriving in Taiwan. Zeng Tianjie was lucky. He graduated from the sixth term of the Whampoa Military Academy and had a unit like the 13th Regiment under his command, but he was not a high-ranking officer.
Therefore, not only did he save the 13th Regiment, but he also got promoted by one level when a large number of generals lost their posts.
Some able-bodied men were incorporated into the 13th Bao Regiment, which became the 13th Bao Division. Of course, this designation would soon be rescinded, as Chiang Kai-shek was preparing to reorganize all the troops in Taiwan and unify their designations.
As a result, it was sent to North Korea before it was even carried out.
"Contact Commander Wei immediately. This is a good opportunity. We can continue what we didn't finish in Guangdong here."
Zeng Tianjie was referring to Wei Dajie, the commander of the 12th Security Division.
