On the morning of February 8, Tira Corollada, the US commander Lieutenant General Clark, went to the mountains south of Tira Corollada and used a telescope to observe the movements of the Chinese army. Yesterday, the mercenaries of the Chinese army launched a tentative attack on Tira Corollada, leaving hundreds of corpses behind.

Lieutenant General Clark was not sure whether the Chinese army would launch an attack today, but he was very eager to see the Chinese army hit the US defense line and bloody, preferably bloody. Lieutenant General George committed suicide by swallowing a gun. Although it was worthy of the crime, Lieutenant General Clark felt very sad. The only way to avenge Lieutenant General George is to kill all the Chinese army as much as possible.

"Come on! You hateful yellow-skinned monkeys, I want you to shed all your blood here!" Lieutenant General Clark said secretly.

At this moment, the beach in Acapulco was completely busy. Airships transported by transport ships are being assembled, and these airships are transported from the country through transport ships. Considering that the US military established a solid line of defense in the Southern Madre Mountains, in order to avoid casualties, the General Staff and the Secretary of the Army Marshal Zhao Bowen discussed and transferred the airship troops to the Mexican battlefield. The main energy of the Chinese Air Force has been transferred to the development of aircraft, which are all airships used by the Russian war more than ten years ago. However, in terms of performance, the performance of these airships is no worse than the Zeppelin airship used by the German army to bomb the Liege Fortress in Belgium.

A total of 20 heavy airships and 40 sub-class medium-sized airships are included. The heavy airship has a load of three tons and can carry two tons of ammunition, including 4 500 kilogram aviation bombs or 8 250 kilogram aviation bombs. The medium-sized airship has a load of 17 tons and can carry one ton of explosives, including two 500 kilogram aviation bombs or 4 250 kilogram aviation bombs. A total of 60 airships can throw 70 tons of bombs at one time. If the accuracy is high, it will not take long to destroy all the solid fortifications built by the US military in Tierra Colorada.

"Hurry! Move faster. Today is our first battle on the American battlefield. We must fight well and let those Americans know how powerful we are!" Major General Chen Qifeng, commander of the airship unit, urged.

The huge airbags and pods have been connected together, and now helium is injecting into the airbags. Because hydrogen is easy to burn, once it is hit, the airships will be dead, and the officers and soldiers operating the airships on them are only dead. Therefore, the Chinese Air Force's airships have now used safer helium to replace hydrogen. Moreover, the airbags of the airships are divided into sixteen parts. Even if they are hit, as long as there are no more than 5 damaged airbags, the airships can continue to fly. This greatly increases the chances of the airships survival on the battlefield. According to the intelligence obtained by China, the US military has not deployed airships on the Mexican battlefield, so the possibility of them being hit is very small. As long as they stay at a high altitude of more than 500 meters, the US military cannot pose a threat to these airships.

With the continuous injection of helium, the airbags of the airship slowly bulged up, and finally gradually left the ground and rose into the air. After the helium was replenished, the ground crew immediately loaded bombs for the airship. It was not until 8 a.m. that the airship troops completed the preparations and took off one after another, flying eastward. Acapulco was only fifty kilometers away from Tira Colorada. After replacing the more powerful engine, the speed of the "Kunpeng, heavy airship and medium airship reached 50 kilometers per hour. As long as there was no headwind, you could fly from Acapulco to Tira Colorada in one hour.

However, the Chinese Army did not do nothing and waited for the arrival of the airship unit. At 8 a.m., when the airship unit took off, Marshal Zhao Bowen ordered an attack on the No. 1 Highland west of Tiela Colorada. This time, the Chinese army assembled thousands of large-caliber artillery and launched a fierce shelling on the No. 1 Highland.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The dense shells fell, and orange-red fireballs bloomed on Highland No. 1. The entire highland was completely shrouded in the smoke.

"Haha, fight well, blow those Americans to death!" On the offensive position, the soldiers of the 13th Division of the Japanese mercenary army saw that the entire No. 1 Highland was covered by gunpowder, and they couldn't help but applaud. After the half-hour shelling ended, it was time for them to launch an attack. Therefore, they wished that the US military would suffer heavy losses under the Chinese artillery shelling, and it would be better to all be killed. In this way, they could easily capture No. 1 Highland and earn military achievements at the lowest cost. This is undoubtedly what these Japanese mercenaries most long for!

However, things went against my wishes. After the Chinese artillery bombardment began, all the US troops guarding Height No. 1 drilled into the anti-aircraft caverns and tunnels that had been built. Tiela Cororada's defense was obviously much stronger than Hartianggis' defense. Almost all the entire Height No. 1 was hollowed out by the US military. From the middle of the mountain, the US military dug a large hole in the mountain to serve as an anti-aircraft cavern, a tunnel for hiding soldiers and ammunition. A few meters of rock formation can effectively resist the shelling of large-caliber artillery. Even 155mm heavy howitzers or cannons cannot penetrate the thick rock formations. It will be very safe for the US military to hide inside.

"Fire the artillery! Let the Chinese know how powerful we are!" Unlike Lieutenant General George who hid artillery at the beginning, Lieutenant General Clark immediately ordered the US artillery to launch a counterattack after the Chinese artillery launched the artillery. Because the number of heavy artillery he mastered was not much different from that of the Chinese artillery. At the same time, many artillery were deployed on the high ground and carried out artillery condescendingly, which took a very high advantage!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The fierce artillery battle began, and the artillery of China and the United States immediately focused on the other side. Especially the heavy howitzers and heavy cannons deployed from behind were constantly firing at the other side's artillery positions!

"Boom!" A loud bang reminded the Chinese artillery's position that a shell exploded less than five meters away from a gun position. The generated air wave immediately threw several gunners on the gun position away, and shrapnel scattered everywhere, causing heavy losses to the surrounding gunners. The 105mm light howitzer was also directly blown away.

The observation balloons in the sky recorded all the positions of the US artillery and sent them to the artillery positions below to guide the artillery to launch a counterattack against the US artillery fire. At the same time, the information they recorded will also be sent to the Chinese Air Force airship unit that was rushing to the coming.

The artillery battle was very fierce, and the artillery soldiers of both China and the United States suffered great losses in the artillery battle. But neither side showed any sign of stopping.

"Hmph! These Americans, fighting with us artillery will help them. After the airship troops arrive, the American artillery that is still firing will become the best targets!" General Du Qizheng stood on a high mountain and said disdainfully.

At 8:30 in the morning, the 13th Division of the Japanese mercenary launched an attack on the No. 1 Highland defended by the US military. During this attack, the Japanese mercenaries invested more than 4,000 troops in a brigade. These Japanese mercenary soldiers lined up in scattered lines and rushed towards the No. 1 Highland of the US military.

"Fire! Kill all these yellow-skinned monkeys!" After the Japanese mercenaries entered the range, the US commander of the US military who defended the No. 1 Highland and the commander of the 101st Division of the 26th Army issued the fire.

Suddenly, the sound of heavy machine guns, light machine guns, mortars, and mountain cannons became a sound, and dense firepower enveloped the Japanese mercenaries, which immediately curbed the Japanese mercenaries' offensive. A large number of Japanese mercenaries were killed in the sound of US guns and cannons, and it became unlikely that they would even rush to the foot of the mountain of Highland No. 1, let alone defeat the US and seize this highland.

"Good fight! Send all these yellow-skinned monkeys to hell!" Lieutenant General Clark was very happy to see the Japanese mercenaries being shot and killed with a telescope. However, what made him a little regretful was that these people who were shot were all Japanese mercenaries, not Chinese troops.

If the attacking Chinese army was the one who was attacking, it would be perfect!

At 9 a.m., a large group of small black dots appeared in the sky west of Tiela Cororada. However, most of the US military focused on fighting against the Chinese army and did not notice this situation.

The US private Tom was the first to discover the coming airships, but they were too far apart and he caught the birds. However, when these airships got closer and showed their huge bodies in the eyes of the US officers and soldiers, the US soldiers were stunned.

The airbags of heavy airships are 200 meters long, and the airbags of medium airships are also 120 meters. Twenty heavy airships and forty medium airships are enough to form a large area that covers the sky and the sun, leaving a large shadow on the ground!

"God! What's that ship?" Many American soldiers exclaimed.

"Damn it, it's an airship, the Chinese people's airship! The Chinese actually used the airship to attack Tiela Cororada!" Some officers also shouted. The United States also had airships. After China first invested airships in its battle against Russia, other countries also invested huge sums of money to develop airships and achieved good results. The United States also established airship troops, but they did not use them as the main force. Therefore, most ordinary soldiers did not know that the United States also had airship troops.
