Nine hundred and sixtieth chapters breathing machine
Acapulco, a coastal port city in southwestern Mexico, was originally just a small city, but after millions of Chinese troops and minions arrived, it has become the busiest port in Mexico.
.A large number of combat materials and personnel need to be transported here by sea to ensure the frontline operations. At the same time, the wounded will also be transported to Hawaii by transport ships for treatment, or even directly transported back to the country. The original narrow ports and docks,
After several months of expansion, it has become a medium-sized terminal, which has greatly improved the loading and unloading efficiency of transport ships from China.
Boxes of grain, bullets and artillery shells are loaded and unloaded from transport ships, which are the most scarce things on the front line. During the fierce battle for a month, the materials on the front line are consumed very quickly. In particular, heavy artillery shells and aviation bombs have almost been consumed.
The stock was gone. So much so that after the Chinese army took over Tira Cororada, they did not immediately launch an attack on Chilpansingo.
On March 2, in the front-line command of Tira Cororada, Marshal Zhao Bowen, the Chinese Army Minister, had moved the command from Acapulco. Although the war had just ended, even the smell of gunpowder in Tira Cororada was
It has not yet dissipated, but it has become the main area for Chinese troops to gather. A few dozen kilometers away is Chilpansingo, which is the US military's key defense, and it is also the core defense area of the US military's defense line in the Southern Madre Mountains.
In the command center, Marshal Zhao Bowen, General Xie Dingkun, Commander of the 2nd Army, General Gao Chang, Commander of the 6th Army, and General Du Qizheng, Commander of the 7th Army, were surrounded in front of a sand table. This sand table was based on the staff officers.
The surrounding terrain marks the latest developments and defense priorities of the US military. There is no doubt that compared with Tiracolorada, Chilpancingo's defense is stronger. Moreover, its troops are not as strong as Tiraco.
Young Master Luolada. It will be more difficult for the Chinese army to break through this place and will even pay greater losses.
"Marson, the fortifications built by the Americans here are very strong! They built dense firepower points based on the mountains on both sides. If they want to take this place, they may have to prepare for blood flowing into a river!" General Xie Dingkun said.
Marshal Zhao Bowen nodded. Chilpansingo is a city built in a valley. The valley is only about two kilometers wide when traveling east-west. However, the mountains on both sides are generally above two thousand meters above sea level and have a relative height.
About seven hundred meters. Although it is impossible for Americans to build heavy artillery positions on the mountain, the fire points composed of some heavy machine guns and light artillery alone are very troublesome. Moreover, some fire points are built at the corner of the mountainside.
Even if the airship is used for bombing, it is difficult to destroy. After all, for its own safety, the airship needs to drop bombs at least one thousand meters at altitude, which will seriously affect the accuracy of the hit. It is very difficult to destroy the target. It can be foreseeable that
If there is no other way, if you want to break through the US military's defense line, you will probably be bleeding here.
"Marson, can we find a way to surround the Americans' retreat? The Eighth 8th Army and the North Korean mercenaries have broken through the Barsa River defense line, so they can attack south, and surround the Americans' retreat and attack the United States on both sides with us.
People!" General Du Qizheng, commander of the 7th Army, suggested that the situation in the east of Chilpansingo should be slightly better and the attack should be less difficult.
Marshal Zhao Bowen shook his head and said, "The traffic in the entire southwestern Mexico is too bad. If the 8th Army and 200,000 North Korean mercenaries want to go south, it will take at least a month to travel a few hundred kilometers. We don't
So much time has been spent!”
"Since the marshal has no other way, he can only attack.
This time, please let our 6th Army take the lead! The lost forces have been replenished. After a month of running-in, the combat power can be fully exerted!" said General Gao Chang, commander of the 6th Army. Because in the early stage, the first phase
On the Mexican battlefield, the 6th Army was besieged by hundreds of thousands of US troops and was cheated by the Mexicans and suffered heavy losses. So much so that after the main force of the Chinese army arrived, they were in a rest and did not go to the battlefield.
It made General Gao Chang, the commander of the 6th Army, very anxious.
"6th Army? Have your combat power been restored?" Marshal Zhao Bowen was a little disbelieved. The 6th Army was not satisfied with the staff. Three infantry divisions were deployed to Iceland Province, and the remaining troops were only more than 100,000.
.In the previous battle, the 6th Army lost tens of thousands of people, and all the soldiers were recruits. Marshal Zhao Bowen didn’t know how much combat power the 6th Army could exert!
"Don't worry, Marshal, the combat power of the 6th Army has been almost restored. Although we had suffered a lot of losses before, our backbone is still there. After a month of running-in, we are no worse than before! General Gao Chang immediately guaranteed that
road.!
"Okay, after the attack begins, you will be arranged to take the field of the 6th Army!" Marshal Zhao Bowen said.
"Thank you, Marshal! But when will our attack begin? The Battle of Tira Colorada has ended for two days. The Americans are now constantly shrinking their troops, and a large number of reinforcements have arrived. If this continues, it is right
We will be very unfavorable!" said General Gao Chang!
"I also want to launch an attack earlier and not give Americans a chance to breathe. But there is no way! The previous war consumed almost the ammunition we had reserved, and now the navy's transport ships are replenishing our ammunition.
According to the current progress, we cannot launch a large-scale attack on the US military without three to five days!" Marshal Zhao Bowen said helplessly.
"Oh! What a pity!" Everyone said. If they could launch a timely attack on the US military after the Battle of Tiracololada, it might be less difficult to break Chilpansingo. When the heavy troops of the US military gathered in
After Chilpansingo, the difficulty has increased a lot.
"Each division will also take this time to take a good rest! Wait until the preparations are completed before launching an attack!" Marshal Zhao Bowen said. Mexico is too far from the local area and needs to support a large-scale battle of nearly 1.7 million troops.
Logistical pressure can be imagined.
However, although the failure to launch an attack on Chil Pansingo in time gave the Americans a chance to breathe. But again, after a month of hard fighting, both the Chinese army and the Japanese mercenaries were very tired.
It's just right to take this time to rest. As for the US military's strengthening of Chilpansingo's defense, although it will have some impact, the impact is not as great as imagined. Besides, the Chinese military can also use this time to strengthen the war
Preparation.
Before, the Air Force had only dozens of airships and forty FB's Haidongqing, and its fighter jets were deployed to the Mexican battlefield. Now, more than 100 aircraft from the entire 4th Fighter Wing of the Air Force have been transported to Mexico. Except for Chil
In addition to the field airport in Pansingo, a small field airport will be built outside the outskirts of Tira Colorada for takeoff and landing of fighter jets and airships. In addition to fighter jets, the Air Force also dispatched a brigade of HB'Hongyan.
, bombers and 1 brigade of FH5' Falcons, dive bombers to the Mexican battlefield. A total of forty 'Hongyans, bombers and forty' Falcons, dive bombers, will greatly enhance the aerial strike capabilities of the Chinese army. Now
Although the bomber load capacity is not as fast as that of an airship, it is faster. It can quickly drop bombs at low altitudes and then leave the battlefield, which undoubtedly increases the accuracy of hits. This is in dealing with the dense fortifications built by the US military in Chilpansingo.
It is of great use.
With the agreement, the General Staff also realized that Chilpansingo was not easy to fight, and the Americans would definitely deploy a large number of troops in Chilpansingo. With China's current plan to increase troops to Mexico, they could only do so.
The Chinese military's firepower may be enhanced, and the bombers deploying the Air Force are undoubtedly considered from this aspect.
Chilpansingo, the atmosphere was very tense. After Lieutenant General Clark was defeated in Tiracololada, the US troops defending Chilpansingo were very nervous, fearing that the Chinese army would take the opportunity to fight. The US troops, which suffered heavy losses,
Morale was also very low, and everyone did not have much confidence in defending Chil Pansingo. However, as time passed, the Chinese army did not immediately launch an attack on the US military, which made General Pershing and
The US military, which is as common as the soldiers, is very surprised.
"General, the Chinese show no sign of attacking us at this moment. They are still in Tira Colorada, and seem to be resting. It seems that they have suffered a lot of losses in the battle some time ago!" Lieutenant General Davis
Speaking, there is some gratitude in the words.
"Thank you, the Chinese did not attack us after taking Tira Cororada. Otherwise, we would not be able to defend Chilpansingo. Now, reinforcements have arrived, and ten armies of reinforcements have made Qi
Erpansingo's defense has once again reached a higher level. It is not so easy for the Chinese to conquer Chilsingo!" General Pershing said with a smile, since the US military defeat in Tierra Cororada
His face was always gloomy as if he could drip water. However, with the arrival of reinforcements, Chilpansingo's crisis had passed, which made him feel better again. Admiral Pershing was very
Fortunately, the Chinese did not launch an attack in time, which undoubtedly gave the US military a chance to breathe. However, General Pershing would not thank the Chinese, but would make the Chinese pay a greater price to serve the dead US soldiers.
