Chapter 589 The 3rd Army was surrounded!

After three rounds of attacks by the Eagle Sauce people, the Northern Monkey Army suffered relatively heavy losses, except for the First Army which was defending against the Southern Monkey Army, which suffered very little losses.

Both the Second and Third Armies suffered heavy losses, especially in heavy weapons and men.

Only one-third of the Third Army's heavy weapons were left, and the loss of personnel exceeded that of a division.

The remaining troops in the entire army do not exceed 30,000.

The Second Army was only slightly better than the Third Army, not much better. The losses in heavy weapons were similar, but there were 5,000 fewer casualties.

In the North Monkey Command!

Li Dazhi said loudly, "They are being surrounded by the Southern Monkey Army. Let them withdraw and disperse back quickly.

In an hour at most, the infantry of the Southern Monkey Army will be dispatched, so withdraw quickly. "

"Deputy Commander, you worry too much. What's coming are only the Eagle Sauce people's planes and missiles, but no Southern Monkey Army. Now the Southern Monkey Army can only rely on the Eagle Sauce people for help.

They have been surrounded on the mountain by our army, and we can hold them there until they starve to death or surrender.

We were still very brave under the attacks of the Eagle Sauce planes and missiles, and some of our personnel were sacrificed.

We are not prepared enough, everything will be fine.

These southern monkey executioners cannot be let off, their hands are stained with the blood of the people! "The commander-in-chief was full of confidence.

"Li, you are too excited. The missiles and planes of the Americans are not scary. We will win!" The Russian adviser also disagreed with the withdrawal.

"No, this time the Eagle Sauce people's aircraft support seemed to be calculated and arrived at the battlefield together.

There must be a connection between them, otherwise it wouldn't be like this.

Moreover, the First Army suffered no losses. It should be that the Southern Monkey Army on Yuanshan was directing the Eagle Sauce people to bomb our army.

This shows that the enemies on the mountain were not panicked at all. They did not decide to go up the mountain on the spur of the moment. They were well prepared.

Considering their course of action and what they have done in the past few days, they should be lured. Retreat! "Li Dazhi insisted.

"The fighting has started and we can't retreat. What if they don't have reinforcements? Our retreat will be in vain!" The commander-in-chief had another reason.

.......

“You…whatever you want, there are 150,000 soldiers, I hope more of them can come back.

Order: General Fan Dayong guards the troops at the second landing point of the South Monkey and surrounds them without attacking.

Hope to persuade them to surrender!

Order: All tanks and armored personnel carriers of the 11th and 12th Armies in the center, carrying only machine gunners, are to patrol the right route for 200 kilometers.

We can save more defeated soldiers of our army. We will only save people, not start a war. Okay, send the message! "After signing, Li Dazhi walked out of the underground headquarters.

There were guards following Li Dazhi. Li Dazhi walked in front and four guards followed behind to protect Li Dazhi.

Not far away, Li Dazhi settled down on a huge rock at the door of the basement.

He felt around in his pockets, wanting to smoke a cigarette, but he forgot that he didn't smoke and had no cigarettes on him.

"Whoever has cigarettes filled up, give me one! Don't worry about me, I just came out to get some fresh air. The basement is a bit stuffy!" Li Dazhi said with a smile.

"I have it, Commander, but it's not a good cigarette!" The guard handed over half a pack of cigarettes and a box of matches.

"Thank you!" Li Dazhi lit a cigarette. He didn't know how to smoke, so he choked and kept coughing.

The guard didn't laugh, he just stared around.

Li Dazhi became more and more skilled at smoking. After finishing the first cigarette, he lit the second one.

At the same time, he was holding a stone and writing something on the ground? What was he drawing? But Li Dazhi's face was getting worse and worse.

Li Dazhi wiped the dirt on the ground with his foot. "Guard, let's go back. Here are your cigarettes and matches. I'll treat you to a cigarette next time!" Li Dazhi gave the cigarette to the guard and walked back to the basement.

......

"Commander Li, an urgent telegram from the right wing: after the third round of bombing, the Southern Monkey Army appeared behind our left and right rear simultaneously.

No less than 100,000 people.

There are also South Monkey soldiers on the two hills behind, bombarding our Second and Third Armies. Our army has suffered heavy casualties! "A staff officer reported.

"Got it. Let's go in! The infantry of the Southern Monkey has appeared. How many heavy weapons do the Third and Second Armies have? If we concentrate them together, can we break through?" Li Dazhi asked.

"Less than a quarter of the Third Army remains. If we concentrate our heavy weapons, we don't have much hope of breaking through.

The Second Army still has more than one-third of its troops, so they can basically break out, but the losses will be very heavy! "The staff officer replied.

"The Second Army... not necessarily!" Li Dazhi said nothing more.

"Li, your judgment is correct. The Southern Monkey Army is surrounding and annihilating us from behind!" The Mao Xiong advisor reacted.

“I know that Wu Sikai has about 100,000 troops missing, and their target is the Third Army.

Let's use the Third Army to exchange for the First and Second Armies. The Third Army can't and shouldn't be in charge. Whether they can break through depends on themselves!!!

Pass on my order: The Third Army will organize its troops, mainly using tanks and artillery to break out of the left rear of the Southern Monkey Army, and use a small number of troops to contain the Southern Monkey Army on the right rear.

The Second Army, mainly composed of tank troops and supplemented by artillery, also attacked the army behind the left rear of the Southern Monkeys.

The rest of the soldiers retreated directly behind them, and if there were pursuers, they could retreat to the old country.

The First Army will immediately leave the defensive area, separate the troops, and retreat directly to the middle. Do not engage in a fight with the Southern Monkey, do not return to the right, but go directly to the middle! "Give the order." Li Dazhi signed.

"Dazhi, my Third Army is in great danger! We should rescue them!" The commander-in-chief's voice was trembling.

“General Jin, it’s not that I don’t want to save them, but I can’t. The Southern Monkey Army is clearly coming for the Third Army. The Southern Monkey Army on these two mountains is not a big threat to the Second Army and the First Army.

They were only threatening the Third Army, but if they tried to save the Third Army, the threat from these two mountains would be too great.

They can't save the person and might end up getting themselves into trouble.

The troops in the rear were too late, as Wu Sikai's troops of at least 200,000 would arrive at the battlefield within eight hours.

We need sixteen hours, plus the planes and missiles of the Americans, we will need at least 400,000 troops with heavy weapons to rescue people.

This is impossible.

The army of Dawn in the middle lane should be coming out soon. The people of the South Monkey King are unwilling to fail! "Li Dazhi spoke calmly.

"Report, the latest news from the Central Route Guerrillas, at the second and third key points, the Southern Monkey Army dispatched no less than 3,000 tanks and 10,000 armored vehicles!" the staff officer reported.

“Sure enough, the Southern Monkey Army is targeting our right flank. They have a big appetite.

We didn't let them occupy the city even when we lost the battle, so now that we've won, they have no chance of occupying the city.

Order: Order to defend the position. All troops are not allowed to leave the defense position. Anyone who disobeys the order will be shot on the spot.

The central guerrillas moved to the center right and entered the Xiluo Mountain area to wait for orders and were not allowed to take the initiative to attack.

Fan Dayong's troops on the left continued to surround the Southern Monkey Army and forced them to surrender.

Send two divisions of guerrillas and two regiments of regular troops to the left defense area for defense! "Li Dazhi signed and issued the order.

"Li, what are the Southern Monkey Army on the right going to do? Are the Central Army preparing to attack the middle or the right, or possibly the left!" The Mao Bear advisor didn't understand.

"Right flank! They won't be able to take the center flank in three months. They can take the left flank in seven days, but they will face our 300,000-strong army.

They can't hold it even if they take it down.

We only have four armies on the right side. As long as two more armies are sent out and defeated by the Southern Monkey Army, the Southern Monkey Army will take over all the places on the right side.

We only have two armies left. If we don’t retreat, we will be surrounded and annihilated!” Li Dazhi explained.

"Deputy Commander, the Southern Monkey Army doesn't have enough troops!" The chief of staff reacted.

"Their army is enough to attack the right flank. How can there not be enough troops on the center and right flanks with at least 650,000?

We had 100,000 fewer men than them in the center and on the right, and they had 400,000 fewer men on the left. We also had 300,000 troops on the left that could not move.

The best thing to do is to completely annihilate the 120,000 Southern Monkey troops in the encirclement and persuade them to surrender.

Let's wait and see what happens. The Eagle Sauce people's massive missile and aircraft support will arrive again within half an hour! "

“Deputy Commander Li, the Third Army must be rescued. Let the Second and First Armies go to rescue them.

We cannot just sit there and watch our friendly forces in danger and not take action, letting the two armies outside rescue the Third Army before Wu Sikai’s troops arrive.

The center and left also moved to rescue the Third Army! "The commander-in-chief was anxious.

"Are you kidding me? Changing the entire defense for the sake of a Third Army of 60,000 people. Do you know what the consequences of doing this will be?" Li Dazhi refused.

"I don't care, my Third Army must be rescued!" the commander-in-chief shouted.

"You are the one who wanted to send out the troops, and you are the one who is going to save people now. You always think about good things!"
