Chapter 1347 Thanks to General Hu
1347 After the Japanese attacking troops retreated, they started to eat on the position. At this time, both new recruits and veterans could eat. They were already used to the matters on the position.??
However, the recruits from the American Division who had reinforced before had not adapted and were still vomiting, but no one would laugh at them, as everyone came here like this.
After eating, the soldiers entered the air raid shelter to rest. The outside positions were handed over to other troops for repair. Tonight, the Japanese troops would definitely attack, so they should rest and rectify the positions in advance.
"Report, the battle on the 289th Division has stopped, but it is estimated that there will be a battle tonight, and the Japanese side will not stop attacking. Therefore, the troops are now preparing to defend against downward attacks!" A staff officer came to Hu Bin and spoke.
"Okay!" Hu Bin heard it, nodded, and said nothing else!
He knew that the casualties on the front line were huge. Of course, Hu Bin also knew that the results achieved on the other side were huge, but compared with the casualties, Hu Bin did not attach much importance to the results. In order to implement this plan of complete annihilation, Hu Bin knew that sacrifice must be made!
"Ding Wanzhong's troops, let him continue to speed up. In a week, I want him to appear outside Alaska to block the devil's retreat. Okamura Yanji must be withdrawing the troops now, but he will not retreat on a large scale, as this will cause a mutiny in the troops.
Moreover, they are attacking at this time, so they will not retreat on a large scale. However, in three days, if Xiang Feng's troops appear, his troops will retreat on the entire line. I want Ding Wanzhong to block the Japanese retreat troops before the Japanese retreat troops arrive in Alaska, and Xiang Feng's troops will also chase them, so that we can wipe out these Japanese and not release them!" Hu Bin said.
"Yes!" The staff officer heard it and nodded. He knew that Hu Bin was in a bad mood, and the 289th Division suffered heavy casualties. Hu Bin was unhappy. They all knew about this.
"I telegrammed to Liang Chulong, the 289th Division, that his troops were fighting very well. He reported all the soldiers who had made contributions, whether they were sacrificed or alive, to me, and I will ask them for me.
In addition, tell him to pay attention to this evening, especially after 8 o'clock, the Japanese will definitely attack. If there is thick fog, you should pay more attention. The Japanese may be the last wave of attacks tonight.
If it is blocked, then tomorrow, the Japanese troops will turn into defense. I will ask them to take revenge at that time. Remember, don’t take the initiative to attack tonight, wait for me!" Hu Bin said to another staff officer.
The staff officer arrived and recorded the telegram. The political commissar next to him saw it and took it, took a look, and then signed it!
"Commander, I'm sorry, I didn't think the troops could really be defended, but you and your country's troops have brought us too many unexpected things.
I thought we couldn't defend the defense line, but I didn't expect that you could still defend it in the face of such a powerful attack! It's really admirable!" Patton came over and said to Hu Bin!
"It's our troops, not only our Chinese troops, but also your American troops, and there are more American troops. I told you before, believe in your troops and the commander below you.
In your opinion, it is very difficult, but our troops can complete it, but the price is very high, but the price is worth it. If we keep the Western Front and lock the Japanese, then the Japanese will not be able to escape.
They can't run away, so they will be dead. They can't stop our next attack. The Japanese are going to fight today. I believe our troops can also be defended tonight!" Hu Bin said to look at Patton.
"Yes, I believe it too!" Patton heard it and nodded!
"Report, General Montgomery is here and said he wants to talk to you about the Indian prisoners on the Eastern Front!" At this time, a staff officer came over and said to Hu Bin.
"Now?" Hu Bin heard it and asked as he looked at the staff officer.
"Yes!" the consultant nodded.
"You two can deal with it. I'm in a bad mood!" Hu Bin heard it and said to Li Nian and Patton.
"Okay!" Patton heard it and nodded.
When Li Nian heard this, he nodded. He had a question in his heart. He didn't know why Hu Bin didn't go to see Montgomery. Originally, Hu Bin had to discuss this matter, so that he could also give confidence to the UK. But now that Hu Bin said this, Li Nian could only listen to Hu Bin and go to see Montgomery!
Soon, Patton and Li Nian went out, leaving MacArthur and the others in the command center. Hu Bin sat there, looking at the map, with a map on the east line and a map on the west line.
It was almost 7 o'clock in the evening, and it was completely dark at this time.
"Commander, the battle situation on the Eastern Front has come. Today we have recovered three cities, and all the Japanese inside have been wiped out by us. Today, there are still more than 10,000 Indian soldiers surrendered, but they all surrendered to the British side and did not surrender to us!" MacArthur came over with a document and said to Hu Bin.
"Now General Patton is already talking about this matter. I think there will be a result soon. How much will we lose today?" Hu Bin heard it, spoke, and then asked MacArthur!
"We have few casualties. Japan has no power to resist. Today, we sacrificed less than a thousand soldiers in total, annihilated more than 20,000 enemies, and more than 100,000 surrenders. It is estimated that Japan will soon be unable to withstand it!" MacArthur said to Hu Bin.
"Very good. Tomorrow, we will continue to draw 20,000 troops and chase General Ding Wanzhong's troops to continue to move towards Alaska!" Hu Bin said to MacArthur.
"Ah, we will draw troops tomorrow?" MacArthur heard this and looked at Hu Bin in surprise.
"What, have any questions?" Hu Bin immediately asked when he saw him like this.
"General Ding Wanzhong has brought more than 50,000 troops there. Logically speaking, there is no need for more troops, right?" MacArthur asked at Hu Bin.
"No need? Do you know how many troops there are on the Western Front?" Hu Bin heard it and looked at him and asked.
"Yes, then, if we were to draw this way, our Eastern Front troops might not be enough!" MacArthur heard it and started speaking again.
"Why isn't it enough? There are still millions of troops here, and with British troops, his Japanese troops can still make a big difference.
It's okay, I'll be transferred the day after tomorrow. This time, I'm going to kill all the Japanese. One is to train your American troops, and the second is not to let them continue to escape!" Hu Bin said to MacArthur.
"Train our troops?" MacArthur heard it and immediately began to think.
"Isn't it? Look at the troops you are now, killing more than 20,000 enemies every day, and only a few thousand casualties. Where can you find such an opportunity?
Today, on our defensive positions on the Western Front, you, the United States, have invested three divisions of troops. The troops of our Chinese division can still win in the face of such strong firepower. This is very helpful for the growth of the soldiers.
I believe that the veterans who survived the Western Front will become the main force of your American troops in the future. They will not be afraid of war. They have fought such wars, so what kind of war will they be afraid of in the future?" Hu Bin heard it, nodded, and said to MacArthur.
"Yes, thank you General Hu! Thank you very much. I will draw troops tomorrow to follow General Ding and continue to draw the transfer the day after tomorrow!" When MacArthur heard this, he immediately figured it out. Such a training opportunity is not easy to find.
Now most of the United States are new recruits, but if a war is fought like this, then those soldiers will be veterans. Everyone knows the importance of veterans to a unit. So, now Hu Bin said that he was training them, and he immediately understood and agreed immediately.
Seeing his reaction, Hu Bin nodded.
"Thank you General Hu, I'll make arrangements now. In addition, I'm sorry for the heavy losses of your Chinese troops on the Western Front, and I also express my gratitude and condolences!" MacArthur said to Hu Bin.
Hu Bin heard this, nodded, and sat there without saying anything.
Soon, Mark Arthur went to work hard.
"To be honest, I was suspicious of Hu Bin before, but now I really don't doubt it anymore. It's amazing, really amazing. Before the fight, we would never have thought that this battle would go so smoothly!
The overall situation on the Eastern Front has been decided, and the Western Front is still under Hu Bin's control. Once Ding Wanzhong's troops reach the designated position and Xiang Feng's troops arrive at the Western Front, the Western Front will be done. Have a lot of knowledge, really a lot of knowledge!" Eisenhower came to MacArthur and spoke.
"So too, it seems impossible, but I use weapons to shoot it. I don't know if it is our problem or the problem that Chinese troops are very powerful in combat.
But I think that on the Western Front, we have several divisions of the United States, which should not be the problem of our soldiers, but the huge problem with our command above.
We don't believe in our troops, nor do we believe in the commanders below us. I really want to go to the Western Front to see what happened there, ask our soldiers, and ask how they viewed this battle!" MacArthur nodded and said, and now he began to be a little convinced by Hu Bin.8
