Chapter 81 The 113th Division set a new walking record in the history of world infantry warfare

Soon, the order reached the 113th Division: "Eat while walking, and do tasks while walking! Run to Sanli!" "Three places!" "Three schools!!" "Sansuoli!!!" Regiment commanders, company commanders, platoon leaders, and squad leaders gathered the troops and desperately encouraged the soldiers who had never rested since the Tokugawa fight to run forward! The 113th Division, like an arrow off the string, galloped towards Sansuo. While running, the officers and soldiers of the 113th Division were physically exhausted and had reached their physical limit.

Some soldiers were exhausted to the extreme, and after running, they suddenly fell down on the road and snored; , suddenly fell to the ground and died. Relying on such a soldier's spirit, the whole division ran forward with support, and they had only one goal—Sansuoli. On this soul-stirring night, the officers and soldiers of the 113th Division created a miracle on earth! By daybreak, the 113th Division had already crossed mountains and ridges, ran for more than 100 miles, and got on the main road. At this time, it was only 15 kilometers away from Sansuoli, and it was almost there. At this moment, the "Sky Snitch" of the United Nations Army appeared overhead.

what to do? If you hide, you have to go back to the mountain road, and you will definitely not be able to catch up. At this time, the head of the 113th Division issued a special order: "Throw away all camouflage, no air defense, no hiding in the mountains, and march forward dignifiedly along the road!" This extremely tired team, just like this, all went on the road. American planes circled over the 113th's head and shouted at them.The soldiers of the Volunteer Army ignored them and just ran south. As a result, these American pilots were fooled, and they regarded the volunteers as retreating Korean troops.

They used radio to ask the security forces of the Korean army in the third station: "Prepare more salted fish. These retired soldiers have exhausted their physical strength and lack salt." The 113th Division moved forward recklessly along the highway with a free hand and a foot. After arduous running, they finally reached Sansuoli.After running for 5 minutes, before I had time to rest, I saw thick smoke billowing from the road to the north—a large number of US troops fleeing south came rumbling over in tanks and cars. The 113th Division of the 38th Army marched 145 miles in 14 hours.

They walked all mountain roads, and the actual distance was much longer than the 145 miles on the map.It is this number that also created an unprecedented record for infantry in the history of world infantry warfare.So far, this record has not been broken by any country's army. During the Gulf War in 1991, the modern American and British heavy armored forces faced the crushingly defeated Iraqi army on the flat Iraqi desert, and their 24-hour advance speed was only 50 to 60 kilometers!
