Chapter 164 The True Story of "The Raid on the White Tigers"

The model play "Surprise Attack on the White Tiger Regiment" is well-known in China. The White Tiger Regiment in the real story is the first regiment and the ace army of the "Capital Division" of the Korean Army. Not long after the Jincheng campaign against Syngman Rhee's clique began, the frontline troops of the White Tiger Regiment failed.Just as the Volunteers surrounded and wiped out the frontline troops of the White Tiger Regiment, a capable special force of the Volunteer Army went straight to the regiment headquarters of the White Tiger Regiment. This small team was led by Yang Yucai, the deputy platoon leader of the reconnaissance platoon of the 607th Regiment of the 68th Army of the Volunteer Army with rich experience, and selected 12 outstanding scouts from a reconnaissance squad.

They were dressed in Korean military uniforms, and each team member was equipped with pistols, submachine guns, grenades and incendiary grenades. Under the guidance of a North Korean guide, they set off. The headquarters of the White Tiger Regiment is located in a place called Erqing Cave in the valley on the south side of Jincheng, more than 20 kilometers away from the front line. It is surrounded by cliffs and there is only one small road to pass through. This is also the only way to enter the headquarters of the White Tiger Regiment. Along the way, the bold and careful Yang Yucai wore a US military uniform and acted as a "US military adviser" and walked in front of the detachment.

When encountering a patrol of the Korean army, Yang Yucai, the "U.S. military adviser", took the initiative to step forward and comforted the panicked Korean soldiers in "English" that he could not understand, and got away with it. At 2 o'clock in the morning, 12 volunteer scouts finally sneaked to the regiment headquarters of the White Tiger Regiment, where an armored company was responsible for the security work. 12 people against dozens of armored vehicles and hundreds of enemies, this battle is not easy to fight. Yang Yucai decided to take the risk of infiltrating through the gap in the tank.

Just when this special operations team was about to take action, a captain of the Korean Army crashed into the team of volunteer scouts in a daze, and led the volunteer scouts along the patrol path straight to the regiment headquarters.In this way, volunteer soldiers swaggered through the protective circle of the tank.The sentinel on guard saw that his immediate superior was leading the way, and with the correct password, he let them go all the way. The head of the White Tiger Regiment is holding an emergency combat meeting with Lin Yichun, the deputy division commander who just arrived.Dozens of Korean military officers are arguing endlessly.

A few smoking grenades were thrown onto the conference table. In just a few tens of seconds, under the wild shooting of the Volunteer Army's special warfare unit, dozens of officers and soldiers of the White Tiger Regiment headquarters were all reimbursed for their deaths or injuries. Before going out, Yang Yucai saw an iron shelf by the wall of the conference room, on which was hung a military flag embroidered with a white tiger head.He rushed over and tore off the beautifully embroidered handicraft. The flag of the South Korean ace team became the trophy of the volunteers. After destroying the command post, they did not give up, and killed the oil depot and ammunition depot near the regiment headquarters in one breath.There were explosions one after another, and the raging fire reflected the sky red.The guards of the regiment headquarters of the White Tiger Regiment were in a mess, crying for their father and mother, unable to figure out how many volunteers had come, and unable to organize a decent resistance.

These 12 volunteer scouts killed 223 enemies in just over an hour, including a regiment headquarters of the White Tiger Regiment, without any casualties, creating a miracle in the history of special forces operations. The fighting went on all night. It was dawn, the clouds were thick and rainy, and the American planes could not take off to rescue the ground troops. At this time, Yang Yong made a bold decision: "Break the routine and attack during the day." By the evening of the 14th, all the enemies of Jincheng had been wiped out, and the four divisions of the South Korean defenders had been dealt a devastating blow.

Hearing the news of the call for help, Clark and General Taylor were both angry and hated towards Syngman Rhee. There is no way, the rescue has to be rescued. They rushed to the front line of Jincheng to command a counterattack.But Taylor's counterattack didn't have much effect either. From July 18th, for five full days, the positions of the Volunteers were impregnable. In the battle of Jincheng, the results exceeded expectations. Since the battle of positions, offensive operations have been small-scale operations. Although Shangganling has a large scale, it is only a defensive operation.Only the Battle of Jincheng was a large-scale offensive operation.

The Volunteer Army and the People's Army wiped out more than 52,000 enemies and captured 45 tanks. The Volunteer Army and the People's Army had only more than 23,000 casualties.The casualty ratio between enemy and friend is 2.3:1.With the victory in Jincheng and other areas, China and North Korea expanded 140 square kilometers southward from the line on June 17. On behalf of Harrison, the U.S. side assured the Chinese and North Korean sides: "The United Nations Army, including the army of the Republic of Korea, is ready to implement the terms of the armistice. When the Republic of Korea conducts any aggression that undermines the armistice, the United Nations Army will not support it."

Li Chengman was also beaten stupid, so he stopped messing around.Although his mouth was not idle, he still shouted: "I oppose the signing of the armistice agreement." At 9 a.m. on July 27, the Korean Armistice Agreement was signed.
