Eight hundred and ninetieth chapters head broken blood
In northern Mexico, at the junction of San Luis Potosi and Novotelle states, a large US military is crossing the military dividing line between the two sides and attacking towards San Luis Potosi. The border troops of a company of the Mexican government forces were originally deployed here,
After a round of artillery attacks by the US military, it immediately disintegrated, allowing the US military to easily invade San Luis Potosi!
"Send a telegram to the general. We have broken through the enemy's defense line and are advancing towards San Luis Potosi! The enemy is vulnerable. In three days, we will be able to reach San Luis Potosi!" Major General Moon, commander of the 12th Army of the US Army, let go.
The telescope in his hand, with a contemptuous smile on his lips, ordered the communication officer. The Mexican government forces in the distance were still fleeing, but the US military did not target them at all!
"Yes, General!" After receiving the order, the communication officer immediately went to send a telegram.
All the main forces of the Chinese Army's Sixth Army gathered on the back line of defense and did not deploy heavy troops on the military dividing line, which allowed the US military to easily break through the military dividing line between the two armies. Mu, commander of the 12th Army of the US Army
If Major General En thought that he could easily defeat the Chinese army, he would be very wrong. The 12th Army and the 5th Army of the US, a total of more than 100,000 people, were the main force in the attack on San Luis Potosi.
After the 11th and 13th Army captured the city of Vales, they would attack San Luis Potosi from the east. John.
Lieutenant General Pershing's plan was to assemble the main force of four armies to siege San Luis Potosi. The Chinese army had only two infantry divisions and one artillery brigade in San Luis Potosi, as well as several infantry divisions of Mexican government forces.
I thought that after hard training, the US military could easily conquer San Luis Potosi.
The city of Vales is only forty kilometers away from Tamaulipas. The 11th Army and the 13th Army of the US arrived here at 11 a.m. on the 21st. The four Mexican government forces are located in the city of Vales.
The infantry division has about 50,000 people, with a force of only half of the US military, and its weapons and equipment are much worse than that of the US military. The four divisions have only more than a hundred light artillery pieces. General Gao Chang, commander of the Sixth Army of the Chinese Army, had no hope.
They held the city of Bayes just to ask them to hold the US military for three days. However, General Gao Chang was not sure whether these Mexican government troops could do it!
The US offensive began at 1:00 p.m., with two US troops, more than 300 heavy artillery, bombarded the positions of the Mexican government forces in the city of Vales. The Mexican government forces immediately launched a counterattack.
However, the artillery strength of both sides was not at the same level at all. Within less than an hour, most of the artillery of the Mexican government army lost. The commander of the Mexican government army had to order the artillery to transfer and preserve its strength!
The US military's artillery preparation lasted for an hour. After the artillery was over, the Mexican government troops' positions seemed to have been plowed. The Mexican government soldiers on the positions
The losses were even heavy. Some anti-aircraft holes were trampled, and the entire Mexican government army company and platoon were buried alive.
At 2:00 p.m., the US infantry launched an attack, while the surviving Mexican government forces launched a counterattack. The battle was very fierce. At the beginning of the battle, the Mexican government forces' will to resist was still very firm. However, as the casualties increased,
As the arrival of the Mexican government forces grew, the confidence of the Mexican government forces was inevitably shaken.
The fierce battle did not end until the evening, and almost all the positions outside the city of Bayes were occupied by the US military. During this day's battle, the Mexican government forces paid the price of more than 10,000 people. The casualties of the US military were
Less than two thousand people. The commander of the US military and commander of the 11th Army Major General George sent a telegram to Lieutenant General Pershing, the Mexican government forces were vulnerable. The US military of only two armies was enough to easily sweep all the Mexican government forces.
, the other eight armies can be used to attack the Chinese army!
On September 22, the 11th and 13th Army of the US launched a more fierce attack on the city of Bayes. Just two hours after the battle, the US army broke into the city. The US army had huge military strength and equipment advantages.
The Mexican government forces retreated step by step. At 4 pm, more than half of the casualties of the Mexican government forces had to withdraw from the city of Bayes and retreat to San Luis Potosi. In just two days, the US troops took it down.
The city of Bayes.
After learning about the specific situation, General Gao Chang ordered the Mexican government forces to resist step by step and delay the US attack on San Luis Potosi.
On the afternoon of September 23, the 12th and 5th U.S. Army attacking from Novo Aung Hlaing State arrived in San Luis Potosi. The main force of the Chinese Army's Sixth Army, who were responsible for guarding the place, was ready for combat. That afternoon, the U.S. Army launched a test.
The sexual attack was easily repelled by the Chinese defenders. After that, the US military did not launch another attack, but retreated to build a defense.
At 9 a.m. the next morning, the US military launched a fierce attack on San Luis Potosi again. The two US troops concentrated more than 300 heavy artillery to launch fierce shelling on San Luis Potosi. The Chinese defenders also carried out fierce attacks.
The artillery brigade of the Sixth Army and the artillery battalions of the 11th and 68th Divisions participated in the artillery battle. In terms of the number of artillery, the Chinese defenders were no less than those of the US military. In terms of artillery performance and artillery level
, even stronger than the US military. This makes the US military unable to gain any advantage in artillery battles. After an hour of artillery battle, the US military lost more than 100 artillery pieces, while the Chinese defenders lost only more than 50 pieces.
Just a cannon.
The artillery was unable to win, which made Major General Moon, the commander of the US military and the commander of the 12th Army, very annoyed. Major General George in the east had captured the city of Bayes and was advancing towards San Luis Potosi. Major General Moon did not want to lose.
Major General George.
At 9:5 am, the US infantry launched an attack on San Luis Potosi under the cover of artillery fire. Major General Moon invested two divisions in the first wave of attacks, more than 25,000.
A large number of US troops lined up in scattered lines and raised their waists to launch an attack on the defense line of the Chinese defenders.
In addition to some of the artillery soldiers of the Chinese defenders who continued to suppress the US military, the other part turned to the US infantry. The dense shells fell down and exploded among the US soldiers. The air waves formed after the shells exploded.
The US soldiers were thrown away, but when they fell, the intact people had become broken pieces of meat. Scattered shrapnel were reaping the lives of US soldiers.
After finally passing through the artillery blockade of the Chinese defenders, the US military advanced to an area less than 500 meters of the position of the Chinese defenders.
"Fire!" With the orders of the officers on the front line, the heavy machine guns, light machine guns and mortars of the Chinese defenders who had already been prepared opened fire one after another! Dense bullets were straits at the US soldiers, and rows of US troops were fired.
The soldiers fell to the ground and couldn't get up, just like cutting wheat. The mortars on the front line were also firing at the maximum rate of fire. Although the mortars were not as powerful as howitzers, they were a powerful weapon to defeat the enemy when dealing with the charge infantry. As early as western Sichuan
In the era, the Western Sichuan Army had already started to use mortars, and now, this weapon can be seen everywhere in the equipment of the army of various countries. This has also changed the current tactics to a certain extent. At least, hiding in the trenches.
The danger of the soldiers inside has increased a lot. The mortar with a bending can still fire shells into the trenches!
"Mortar! Kill the enemy's heavy machine gun!" a US lieutenant shouted loudly.
A mortar from the US military was quickly set up, but before they could fire the artillery, a mortar shell soared into the sky, killing all the American soldiers and their cannons.
"Bitch!" The US military lieutenant cursed. But then, he widened his eyes. An automatic came from unknown places, hit his heart and took his life away!
Although the US military's attack was very fierce, it encountered the Chinese army with strong firepower. Without the advantage of artillery fire, they were destined to be bleeding from the Chinese defense line! The US military's attack lasted only less than four times.
It stopped in ten minutes, and in the face of huge casualties, the US military's high fighting will was also rapidly weakening.
"General, during the attack just now, we lost more than 6,000 people, most of them were killed!" a brigade general reported to Major General Moon.
"Damn! These Chinese people who are raised by bastards are still so powerful!" Major General Moon said angrily. A few years ago, he was just a division commander. At that time, his division was in the war broke out in San Luis Potosi.
He was almost crippled under the attack of the Chinese army, which is still fresh in his memory. He originally thought that he could take revenge this time, but he did not expect that he would break his head under the defense line of the Chinese defenders.
flow!
"In half an hour, launch another attack!" Major General Moon gritted his teeth and ordered. He was unwilling to admit defeat just like this. His current strength is more than twice that of the Chinese defenders. Of course, the Mexico in San Luis Potosi
The government army was not plotted against him at all. He believed that the US army of two armies should be able to defeat the Chinese defenders!
At 10:30 am, the US military once again invested two divisions to launch an attack on San Luis Potosi. However, this attack still did not achieve any effect. Apart from leaving a corpse on the offensive road, the US military found nothing.
!This result made Major General Moon furious. You should know that in these two attacks, the US military had lost more than 10,000 people, and there was no more than a division, but the defense line of the Chinese defenders was still very stable!
