During the attack on San Luis Potosi on the afternoon of August 27, the Chinese army advanced a lot faster after the attack. Although the US military's resistance was still very fierce, the Chinese army and Japanese mercenaries were further ahead.

Both had to pay a considerable price, but at night, the 8th Army and the Japanese mercenaries still captured almost one-tenth of the city of San Luis Potosi. This was also considered a progress in San Luis Potosi.

The position is here.

However, in order to capture these places, both the Chinese army and the Japanese mercenaries paid a considerable price. The 9th Infantry Division of the Chinese army paid a price of more than 2,000 casualties, and the losses of the Japanese mercenaries were as high as 10,000.

Of course, the US military paid a greater price. This is because the Chinese army has obtained the support of the artillery and air force and has an absolute advantage in firepower. Without these advantages, the Chinese army will suffer greater losses.

That night, General He Bingju, commander of the 8th Army, held an emergency combat meeting at the front enemy command center. He was very dissatisfied with the progress of the troops. Marshal Zhao Bowen only gave them one week, and now two have passed

Oh my God, according to the current progress, it will probably be very difficult to win San Luis Potosi in the remaining five days.

"Everyone, our attack on San Luis Potosi was very unsuccessful. The resistance of the US military was unexpectedly strong. The Marshal only gave us a week, and now two days have passed. We must be in

The US troops entrenched in the city within five days!" General He Bingju said sternly.

"Commander, the Americans' resistance was very fierce, and the defense of San Luis Potosi was beyond our imagination. The US troops rushed out from all places to fight us. We were going to compete with the Americans for every street, every house, and even

It is every ruin! The Americans' will to resist is also very strong. Moreover, after several months of construction, San Luis Potosi has almost become a fortress, but there are no large-caliber fortress cannons."

Major General Zhou Nan, the commander of the Infantry Division, said.

During the attack this afternoon, the three regiments under the 9th Infantry Division were successively engaged in battle. The battle was very tragic and the losses were huge.

"Commander, the Americans must have planned a long time ago and wanted to fight us here." Major General Dai Yulong, the commander of the 8th Armored Brigade, said.

"No matter how difficult it is, we must take San Luis Potosi in the remaining 5 days. This will never change!" General He Bingju emphasized. After looking at everyone, he said.

: "Is there any way for everyone?"

"Commander, according to the responses of the officers below, the US military has built many solid fire points in the city, which are hidden in some dead corners. Even if we call for artillery fire support, it is difficult to destroy. Because it is difficult to accurately bombard these targets with heavy artillery.

The mortars and infantry artillery carried by the infantry destroyed these targets in a very southern way. This caused great trouble to our attack!" Major General Zhou Nan said. These firepower points of the US military are poured with steel and cement. Defensive power.

It is very powerful and requires armor-piercing bullets to penetrate. It is difficult for ordinary small-caliber grenades to break through their armor. Therefore, the attacking infantry had to fill it with their lives.

General He Bingju couldn't help but frown. He also knew that if the strong firepower points that caused great trouble to the Chinese army could not be quickly eliminated, the Chinese army would have to pay a greater price to take San Luis Potosi.

·It will also take a very long time.

"Commander, why don't we join the siege! All our tank guns can fire armor-piercing bombs. There should be no problem with these reinforced firepower points of the US military!" Dai, the commander of the 8th Armored Brigade.

Major General Jade Dragon asked for his resignation. After breaking through the position outside San Luis Potosi, the task of the armored troops was completed. The street fighting in the city was relatively narrow and vulnerable to attack, so the armored troops did not participate in the siege.

among.

"No! Once the armored troops enter the street fighting, they are easily destroyed." General He Bingju shook his head. The armored brigade of each army is their sharp knife troops. If the losses in the street fighting are too large, this will be correct

The subsequent operations have a great impact. After taking down San Luis Potosi, the army will continue to advance northward, and at this time it will have to rely on armored troops.

"The battle to clear San Luis Potosi in the battle, should not be very dangerous. The US anti-tank forces have been wiped out by us before. What we have to worry about now is probably the US military uses explosive packs to deal with us.

With the defense capabilities of the tank, it is difficult for the US military to harm us without special anti-tank weapons. In addition, we can use infantry to provide protection for the tanks. In this way, it will be even more important to clear out the US military in the city!

"Major General Dai Yulong analyzed.!

General He Bingju thought about it. He began to consider the pros and cons of putting armored troops in street fighting. The benefits were very obvious. The armored troops participated in the attack on the US military and could easily crush the US military's defense system. The firepower points of the US military were equipped with the troops.

In front of the tank, it is similar to the paper-paste, and can be easily destroyed. But the disadvantages are also very obvious. Even if the defense is tight, it will definitely cause losses to the armored forces, which will greatly reduce the assault ability of the group army.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Suddenly, a dense explosion sound came from the city of San Luis Potosi. It looked like the sound of shells with large caliber heavy artillery explosions. It woke up General He Bingju, who was thinking.

"What's going on? What happened?" General He Bingju asked hurriedly.

Two minutes later, a staff officer ran in and reported: "Commander, the Americans fired violently on the city we occupied, and at least more than two hundred heavy artillery pieces were used. We suffered heavy losses!"

"Damn it, commander, we need to fight back immediately!" Major General Zhou Nan, the commander of the 9th Infantry Division, said with red eyes. In addition to the Japanese mercenaries of a division, there is also the 93rd Infantry Regiment.

"Architecture Brigade, counterattack immediately and suppress the American artillery! In addition, we will draw troops to support us and we must defend the position!" General He Bingju ordered with a calm face. The US military even launched a night attack, which was completely beyond his difficulty.

Imagination.

"Yes, Commander!" Major General Zhou Nan, the commander of the 9th Infantry Division, nodded and left the command center. He needed to draw the front line to support. In addition, Japanese mercenary commander General Yoshima Oshima also left the conference room.

China has sent reinforcements, and the Japanese mercenaries are obviously unable to express their opinions.

"Brig Commander Dai, the armored troops will join the battle tomorrow. No matter what, we must first wipe out the Americans in San Luis Potosi!" General He Bingju said in a deep voice. In order to capture San Luis Potosi as soon as possible, the 8th Army must have

Do your best, and there is no way for the armored troops to fight. In addition, the armored troops can also summarize a set of tactics and use them in future battles. After all, after attacking the United States in the future, it will definitely be

There will be similar situations. In order to defend the country, those Americans will definitely be even more crazy than they are now. What is waiting for the Chinese army will be a more arduous battle.

At this time, the US military was launching a fierce attack on the defense positions of the 93rd Infantry Regiment of the Chinese Army and the 11th Division of the Japanese Mercenary. The hidden heavy artillery troops of the US military finally came in handy. The dense shells fell on the Chinese army and Japan.

On the mercenary's positions, the orange-red fire light shone around as if it was daylight.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The city that was originally destroyed by the artillery and air force of the Chinese army was once again bombarded by the heavy artillery forces of the United States, and large-caliber shells fell on the positions of the Chinese army and Japanese mercenaries.

, leaving behind huge craters, and anyone who is affected is only dead.

After the Chinese army and Japanese mercenaries seized the city, they did not build too strong positions.

This undoubtedly caused them great casualties. Without a strong defensive position, it is easy to imagine how difficult it is to resist the US military's artillery bombardment.

Fortunately, the 8th Army's artillery brigade launched a counterattack just ten minutes after the US military's artillery began. The observation balloon in the sky roughly determined the location of the US military's artillery, and then the brigade's 155mm medium howitzer and 155mm heavy cannon were used to match.

The US artillery launched a suppression. Afterwards, in order to avoid losses, the US artillery voluntarily stopped the artillery. But even so, the Chinese army paid the price of hundreds of casualties. The losses of the Japanese mercenaries were even greater.

After the shelling was over, the US military launched a fierce attack. Tens of thousands of US troops were fearless and wanted to regain the positions occupied by the Chinese army and the Japanese mercenaries. However, they were all beaten back. However, they were hired for the Chinese army and the Japanese mercenaries.

The army also caused considerable losses. Thanks to the timely arrival of reinforcements, they defended the defense line.

On that night, the US military launched several attacks, but they were all repelled, leaving behind corpses in front of the Chinese military's positions. Although the US military's night attack failed, this also showed that the US military was in danger of

The strength of fighting will.

On the morning of the 28th, the 8th Army once again started the attack on San Luis Potosi, but this time the 8th Armored Brigade also joined in. All the T5 cheetahs, medium tanks and TP 'Wild Wolfs, and light tanks were
Chapter completed!
