It was night, when the US military sent the third division to the front line of Wulaoli to enter a state of defense, and its radio interceptor received a radio signal for clear communication. After receiving the information, it was sent to the hands of Commander Smith and Commander Almond. The two major generals of the United States were both angry and furious after reading it.
"The Driesdale Detachment dispatched by the 1st Division and 6th Division of the United States has completely failed. Most of the detachment occupants have been eliminated, and more than half of their armored detachments were destroyed on the road to the lower corner. . Lieutenant Commander Lieutenant Colonel Driesdale was seriously injured and Major McLaughlin was captured. "
"The U.S. military needs to be responsible for the destruction of the 'Drysdale Detachment' and put a force of about 1,000 people into the encirclement of a division of the enemy. This is extremely irresponsible for the lives of soldiers. . "
"And after the" Driesdale Detachment "was finished, the consequence was that the U.S. Army ’s position in the ancient soil was empty, and the position commander Colonel Pooler was foolishly attacking the enemy ’s solid position again, fighting until In the evening, he was counterattacked by the enemy's powerful armored forces and lost the ancient soil. "
"Xingnan Port, where the Division One Division Headquarters in 6th War is currently under the enemy's front, is about to suffer major losses. Major General Smith and Major Almond staying in Xingnan Port are in extreme danger. They are likely Will be captured by the enemy in this war. "
The two major generals of the US Army saw the continuous reports, and they were really angry. Because these reports are true and false, the US military deployment, personnel, and various internal information are extremely detailed, and ordinary people simply cannot distinguish the mistakes.
What ’s more annoying is that the information was sent by an Associated Press reporter named Frank Noel from the enemy POW camp to the Tokyo branch. This kind of information distributed by high-power radio stations cannot be blocked at all. Even if the Associated Press does not distribute it, other international news agencies will certainly not let it go.
This **** is really a big disaster, more terrible than hundreds of thousands of losses on the front line. Do n’t assume that Americans do n’t have to face, in fact, all big powers have to face. It is now the time for the United States to win World War II and build global confidence. This kind of battlefield defeat is heard and the face is beaten.
As long as the information is available, the "Emperor Tai" who is staying in the Far Eastern Military Department in Tokyo is still wondering how to deal with it? The British army on the Korean battlefield continuously sent telegrams asking if the 'Driesdale Detachment' was really sent to the enemy's mouth by the US military.
Because Lieutenant Colonel Driesdale is a British officer, there are a large number of British soldiers in his detachment. This is simply a big basket, think about the British Reuters news report, the British army will not care about this matter.
Moreover, the captured Frank cloth ’s messages continued, without any intention of stopping. He has first-hand information. For example, an interview with the front-line commander of the Volunteer Army can get a bunch of news, which is absolutely eye-catching. Or he can write a documentary report to the captured officer, which is also extremely popular.
Famous and well-known reports with specific deeds have a high degree of credibility. Because the joint ** includes the military of more than 20 countries in the world, the people who pay attention to the Korean battlefield are all over the world. The media in the world in the 50s were equally unruly, and they must report crazy in order to attract readers.
Actually, the American team also pays close attention to Frank ’s report, because this reporter also lavishly reports on the details of the defeat of the U.S. military in Guturi. In particular, I asked American soldiers and officers who had experienced the battle, and completely outlined the entire battle.
For the is-7 heavy tank that broke through the US military position, Frank also painted a lot, and even described in detail the various details he saw, and said that he took a lot of photos and even entered the tank to watch.
Through Frank's description of is-7, both laymen and laymen seem to see a tank of the age. Its weight of nearly seventy tons is huge, and its power of 1,200 horsepower and a maximum of seventy kilometers make the tanks of other countries instantly fall behind.
The 130mm main gun, the 40mm secondary gun, the 60mm mortar with support for infantry, and a large number of vehicle-mounted machine guns. This weapon configuration is enough to make the frontline Americans feel desperate and make them more desperate. The American tank designer in the rear was shocked.
Not to mention the captured U.S. tank soldiers personally talk about the process of their battle with the is-7, the kind of inability of their own shells is clearly described in their words. The one-on-one massacre during the confrontation silenced the other US tank soldiers and made the families of the tank soldiers who participated in the first division of the 6th battle cry.
"Damn, you must stop this guy from slandering bullshit." The "Super Emperor" who stayed in Tokyo was finally unable to sit still, and this five-star general was the most important face. He hoped that one day he would switch from the military to the political world like Eisenhower, and become a president.
(Well, Eisenhower has n’t been president yet. It ’s true to be an old man to be a face, and I like to be forced. There are many examples.)
"Collecting in the soil, I need you to win a victory immediately, a victory worthy of propaganda to the people of the world. Otherwise, the headlines of major evening newspapers in the United States today are our enemies boasting about their merits." It was bad breath.
Know that North Korea is just getting into the night, and the United States on the other side of the earth is just dawn. This thing of radio waves can travel very far and can also relay. As soon as the station in Guturi sends a message, Tokyo will receive it. When Tokyo received it, it was almost equal to that received by the United States.
Disaster!
MacArthur has always played the main battle on the Korean battlefield. He tried to burn the war to Huaxia and even wanted to compete with the Soviet Union. However, the US Congress and the government want to control the scope of the war, do not want to make things bigger, let alone make the Third World War.
Lao Mai, who has an overbearing personality, relies on his record on the battlefield to maintain his influence. If the news of the failure of a division in the 6th war passes through the media leaven, his influence will soon be greatly reduced.
In fact, MacArthur was finally dismissed by Truman not only because of his rebelliousness, but also because of his series of failures in North Korea. Therefore, the current Lao Mai needs a big victory, not the news of failure.
The ‘Emperor Tai’ soared, and the pressure naturally spread to the heads of Commander Almond and Commander Smith. The two men are worried about the hurried battle of the third division, but now they listen to what boss means, not only to defend them, but to attack.
Let the third division attack? Don't let the half of the South Korea soldier's fish brigade break up!
The two high-ranking officers of the Pressure Mountain University really have a headache, but the current situation is not only MacArthur's trouble, but also their trouble. Especially the commander of the Tenth Army, Almond, is a close associate of Lao Mai. Now that the master is in trouble, it is obviously impossible for him to do his best.
"Let the third division attack forward overnight, and recover Zhenxingli anyway." Almond was finally helpless. What he can do now is to continue to push the third division with weak combat effectiveness.
Looking at the situation on the map, Major General Smith reluctantly throws the drawing pen in his hand toward the table and sighs. The third division is really catching the duck this time, daring!
What if this is abused? 8
