★★★
范舰队将军在评估了局势后，在午夜（17-18日）左右作出决定，以支持X军团东部地区，这在很大程度上是由于韩国人无法保住阵地。
其余的第3师特遣队将从汉城东移，随后将有其他部队，包括第7次循环共和国和第65次循环共和国，这两个部队将分别在19日和20日重新部署。
同时，第15个循环授信未受影响；它将继续附属于第2师。
货车舰队还指挥第1军团、美第9军团和第一海军师派发巡逻队，准备攻击一条相线（托皮卡）。
General Van Fleet, after assessing the situation, makes a decision at about midnight (17th-18th) to bolster the eastern sector of the X Corps（美第10军）, due in great part to the inability of the South Koreans to hold their positions.
The remaining 3rd Division（师） contingents are directed to move eastward from Seoul（汉城） and other units will follow, including the 7th RCT（团级战斗队） and the 65th RCT（团级战斗队） , which will redeploy on the 19th and 20th respectively.
In conjunction, the 15th RCT（团级战斗队） is unaffected; it is to remain attached to the 2nd Division（师） .

在九军团部门，美第1陆战师第7陆战团被命令从29号线封锁的阵地撤出，并沿无名字线解除该区右侧阵地的美第1陆战师第1陆战团，以允许美第1陆战师第1陆战团解除第9步兵团（X军团）。

★★★
在X军团部分，继975高地法国营前晚撤退后，中国第181师的部分人员毫不费力地进入24号线，使敌人在03时30分左右在Chaun ni对第23步兵团左翼进行打击。
其他敌军分遣队则进驻在洲尼以西的高地，将志愿军安置在村庄和法国营之间，法国营已经撤到了一些位于腐朽边缘的高地上。
▲In the X Corps（美第10军） sector▲
subsequent to the pull back on the previous night by the French Battalion（营） on Hill 975, elements of the Chinese 181st Division（师） effortlessly gain access to Route 24, which enables the enemy to strike at the left flank of the 23rd Infantry Regiment（团） at Chaun-ni by about 0330. Other enemy contingents advance to positions in the heights west of Chaun-ni to place the Chinese between the village and the French Battalion（营） , which had withdrawn to some high ground on the fringes of Putchaetful.

美第1陆战师第1陆战团（九军团）完成了第9团的救济，这使得第9团完成了重新部署，以支持第38团。
到中午，第1营第9步兵开始在第2营和第3营之间建立阵地。

★★★
另一次营救陷于困境的部队的努力定于18时00分左右开始。
由于突然的意外风暴，预计支持这一进展的飞机被迫返回基地。
取消空中力量之后，暂停大规模炮击。
与此同时，G连（第38团）和荷兰营支援的第9团正在撤离被困部队的途中。
Another attempt to rescue the beleaguered unit is scheduled to commence at about 1800. Planes expected to support the advance are compelled to return to base due to a sudden unexpected storm.
Cancellation of the air power is followed by the suspension of a massive artillery barrage.
Meanwhile, the 9th Regiment—bolstered by Company（连） G (38th Regiment) and the Dutch battalion—is en route to extricate the trapped units.
★★★
到第2天早上，当到达第9团阵地的散兵被统计时，伤亡人数极为严重。
A连有89人，2名军官。
B连占74名应征军人，但没有军官。
F连不包括军官和81名应征人员。
第38团一、二营其他单位伤亡率也较高。

Company（连） A stands at eighty-nine men and two officers.
Company（连） B accounts for seventy-four enlisted men, but no officers.
Company（连） F accounts for no officers and eighty-one enlisted men.
The other units in the 1st and 2nd Battalions（营） of the 38th Regiment（团） also sustain high casualty rates.
★★★
同时，第38团第3营占领800高地，等待第5海军陆战队的到来，第2天，第5营是填补第3营与第9步兵团两营之间的差距。
然而，志愿军在天黑后进驻800高地。
K连为峰会辩护，得到了巨大的支持。
每次连续的进攻，都要求大炮袭击，志愿军继续被无情的炮火所摧毁。
K连的部队一直在等待防御的安全。
袭击持续到次日黎明，但山顶仍未受影响，志愿军在炮击中损失了约800名部队。
▲Meanwhile,▲
the 3rd Battalion（营） , 38th Regiment（团） , holds Hill 800 and awaits the arrival of the 5th Marines（陆战团）, which on the following day is to fill the gap there between the 3rd Battalion（营） and two Battalions（营） of the 9th Infantry Regiment（团） .
The Chinese, however, advance after dark to seize Hill 800. Company（连） K, defending the summit, receives an enormous amount of support.
With each successive assault, artillery strikes are called upon and the Chinese continue to get raked with relentless fire.
All the while, the troops of Company（连） K wait in the security of the defenses.
The attacks continue until dawn on the following day, but the crest remains unscathed and the Chinese lose about 800 troops to the artillery bombardments.
★★★
在第23团地区，命令指示该团沿新线重新部署在24号公路以东的阵地；然而，志愿军封锁了唯一能够运载车辆的路线。
使危机雪上加霜的是，通讯的混乱导致了更多的问题。
法国通知第72坦克营，从Chaun-ni出发的道路有地雷。
这些信息被传递给了周妮，但官员们没有收到。
因此，第2营和第3营的补给列车，第72坦克营的一些坦克，以及一个迫击炮连的分遣队都面临地雷和火墙，除非志愿军能迅速被驱逐出去。
In the 23rd Regiment（团） zone, orders direct the Regiment（团） to redeploy along the new line in positions east of Route 24; however, the Chinese block the only route capable of carrying vehicles.
To add to the crisis, a mix-up in communications causes more problems.
The French inform the 72nd Tank Battalion（营） that the road from Chaun-ni is mined.
The information is passed on to Chaun-ni, but it does not reach the officers.
Consequently, the supply trains of the 2nd and 3rd battalions（营） , some tanks of the 72nd Tank Battalion（营） , along with a contingent（特遣队） of a mortar Company（连） face mines and a wall of fire, unless the Chinese can quickly be evicted.
★★★
第2营和第3营的部队在一排坦克的支援下试图扫清道路，但中国军队是无法逾越的。
下午早些时候，第3营向路障附近的阵地前进，第2营则在清除沿途的其他敌军，但毫无效果。
命令到达，指示补给列车和随行部队破除封锁线，而第2营与第3营联合撤退。
由于还不知道沿途有地雷，车队在坦克的带领下驶出了Chaun ni，但在行驶了很短的距离后，铅坦克撞上了地雷，使整个车队停滞不前。
Elements of the 2nd and 3rd battalions（营） , bolstered by a platoon of tanks, attempts to clear the way, but the Chinese force is insurmountable.
The 3rd Battalion（营） advances to positions near the roadblock by early afternoon, while the 2nd Battalion（营） works to clear other enemy forces along the road, but to no avail.
Orders arrive instructing the supply trains and accompanying units to plow through the blockade, while the 2nd Battalion（营） moves to join with the 3rd Battalion（营） for a combined withdrawal.
Still unaware of mines along the route, the convoy, led by tanks, rolls out of Chaun-ni, but after traveling only a short distance, the lead tank hits a mine and stalls the entire convoy.

志愿军仍然栖息在道路两侧的高地上，并立即开火。
当包括油罐车在内的司机试图弃车逃生时，一片混乱。
立柱中的第2个坦克冲破铁屑，领先于残障坦克，但毫无效果。
不久之后，它也失去了一个矿井的踪迹。
有人试图让车队离开公路，驶入通往南部公路的河床上。
在那里，敌人也完全扰乱了撤退。
司机们再次弃车，其中一些因碰撞而停止，另一些则因燃烧弹药而起火。
The Chinese, meanwhile, remain perched in the high ground on opposite sides of the road and immediately open fire.
Pandemonium breaks out as the drivers, including tankers, attempt to escape the fire by abandoning the vehicles.
The second tank in the column rams its way through the iron debris and gets ahead of the disabled tank, but to no avail.
Soon after, it also loses a track to a mine.
Attempts are made to get the convoy off the road and onto a stream bed leadingsouthward.
There, too, the enemy totally disrupts the withdrawal.
Drivers again abandon vehicles, some of which are halted by collisions and others afire by burning ammunition.
★★★
部队逃向第2营和第3营，并陪同他们进入另一个乏味和危险的撤军阶段。
部队的后防是第72坦克营C连。
大约在18时30分，天气也不利于撤退。
大雨开始使这个地区饱和。
尽管如此，到了午夜时分，第2营和第3营到达了第1营后面的阵地。
与此同时，志愿军喜欢在被遗弃的车辆中搜寻拾荒者。
The troops flee toward the 2nd and 3rd Battalions（营） and acCompany（连） them on yet another tedious and dangerous phase of the withdrawal.
The rear guard of the force is Company（连） C, 72nd Tank battalion（营） .
At about 1830. even the weather turns against the retreat.
Heavy rain begins to saturate the area.
Nonetheless, by about midnight, the 2nd and 3rd Battalions（营） reach positions behind the 1st battalion（营） .
In the meantime, the Chinese enjoy a scavenger hunt among the abandoned vehicles.
★★★
韩第5师位于洲尼以东，被迫无序退役。
韩国在683高地以南的位置停止了撤退，但只有一些人在那里。
更多的韩国人分散在各地。
另外，韩第7师的部队在哈索尔奇东南部的位置控制着X军的东侧，略低于P'ungam-ni。
该师大部分像韩第5师，分散到韩第3兵团区。
The ROK 5th Division（师） , positioned east of Chaun-ni, is forced to retire in disorderly fashion.
The ROKS（韩军） halt the retreat at positions slightly south of Hill 683, but only some are there.
Many more South Koreans are scattered all about.
Also,
elements of the ROK 7th Division（师） holds the X Corps（美第10军）’ east flank at positions southeast of Hasolch’i, slightly below P’ungam-ni. The bulk of the Division（师） is like the ROK 5th Division（师） , scattered as far away as the ROK III Corps（韩第3军） sector.
★★★

美第1陆战师第7陆战团第3营在莫雷-孔盖山口的一场夜间战斗圆满结束。
志愿军进行了顽强的进攻，但一连的反击收复了地面并压制了进攻，而其他海军陆战队和坦克则通过炮兵机动来封锁敌人的后方。
到了黎明（18日），中国队遭受了毁灭性的失败。
10时30分左右，空中支援再次抵达，但该地区仍有大量敌人目标。

By dawn (18th), the Chinese sustain a devastating defeat.
Air support again arrives late at about 1030. but still there are plenty of enemy targets in the area.
The Chinese lose 112 killed (counted) and 82 POWs.

美第1陆战师根据陆军第8号令，缩小了其外围，以支援东部的第2师。
美第1陆战师第7陆战团第1师撤退，而美第1陆战师第7陆战团撤退。
与此同时，第5海军陆战队从该师的左翼撤出，以解除极右翼的第38步兵团。
反过来，海军陆战队的救援让第2师有了灵活的部署空间，可以让从东方来的志愿军参与和阻止。
▲In other activity,▲
the 1st Marine Division（陆战师） , acting on Eighth Army orders, shrinks its perimeter to support the 2nd Division（师） on the east.
While the 1st Marines speed to relieve the 9th Infantry, 2nd Division（师） , the 7th Marines pull back to the No Name Line to relieve the 1st Marines（陆战团）.
In conjunction, the 5th Marines pull out of the division’s left flank to relieve the 38th Infantry Regiment（团） on the far right.
In turn, the relief by the Marines allows the 2nd Division（师） the flexibility to deploy from where the Chinese moving from the east can be engaged and halted.
