Originally, among the US military, including General Pershing himself, it was extremely! Look--China's minion army, whether it was Japanese mercenaries or North Korean mercenaries, were just artillery fire with simple weapons in the eyes of the US military.
, it may be fine to bully the unarmed indigenous people of the South Ocean, but it will definitely be vulnerable to the fully armed US military.
However, the Battle of Haltiangis showed that these mercenaries that the US military looked down upon had shown extremely strong combat effectiveness. The main high ground on both sides of Haltiangis were almost all Japanese mercenaries.
Although they were defeated, their fierce attack method made the US military frightened. In the end, the well-equipped US military was defeated by the Japanese mercenaries. The combat power of the Japanese mercenaries is so
Strong, even if the North Korean mercenaries are worse than the Japanese mercenaries, their combat power is extremely terrifying. In addition, the Chinese Army, which is already very strong, so General Pershing is a little worried. With two million US Army, he may be
It cannot withstand millions of Chinese army and hundreds of thousands of Japanese and North Korean mercenaries.
"General, although the Chinese army and mercenaries are very powerful, we are on the defensive side. We rely on the solid defense line established by the Southern Madre Mountains to give great damage to the Chinese. In addition, we have more troops than the Chinese.
Therefore, we still have a great chance of winning in this battle. Tiela Cororada's defense line is much stronger than Hartiangis. If the Chinese want to conquer Tiela Cororada, they may have to pay for it.
Hundreds of thousands of casualties!" Lieutenant General Davis said with great confidence.
Admiral Pershing nodded. Although the combat power shown by the Chinese army and the mercenaries were very strong, he was still very confident in the defense line of the Southern Madre Mountains built by more than 2 million US troops.
"Send a telegram to Tira Cororada, and let Lieutenant General Clark take office as the commander of Tira Cororada's defense line and command the US troops there. In addition, let the 49th Army and the 50th Army reinforce Tira Cororada,
Let's go tomorrow morning!" General Pershing said. Lieutenant General Clark's performance in the Battle of Haltiangis made General Pershing very satisfied. If Lieutenant General George hadn't been too stubborn, Hartiangis wouldn't
It will defend, but the US military will suffer much less casualties, and the US military will also have enough troops to defend Tira Colorada.
"Yes, General! Lieutenant General Clark is indeed a good candidate. I believe he will hurt the Chinese in TiraColorada!" said Lieutenant General Davis. Although, he also wanted to serve as TiraColorada's
Commander, but he could not object if General Pershing had made a decision, but just envied Lieutenant General Clark's good luck. In Lieutenant General Davis's view, with the strong line of defense of Tira Colorada
It is easy to withstand the attack of the Chinese army. As long as it resists the attack of the Chinese army and even causes great damage to the Chinese army, it is considered a military achievement! This is very helpful for future promotion.
After Lieutenant General Clark officially became the supreme commander of Tira Cororada, he immediately adjusted the defense of Tira Cororada. Tira Cororada surrounded the mountains on three sides, and there were mountains on the east, south and west.
The US military built dense fortifications on the surrounding mountains and deployed a large number of heavy weapons. One kilometer west of Tiraco Rolada is the road to Chilpansingo. It is deployed in Tiraco
The artillery of Lolada can easily cover this highway. Therefore, if the Chinese army wants to cross the Madre Mountains in South and attack Chilpancingo, they must first conquer Tira Cololada.
The US military has a total of more than 300,000 troops in Tira Colorada, including the main force of the US 16th Army, the 26th Army, the 25th Army, the 27th Army, the 28th Army and the 29th Army. Plus Pan Xing
The 49th Army and 50th Army sent by the General to reinforce the US troops in Tira Colorada will reach more than 400,000, and have nearly 800 heavy artillery pieces with a caliber of more than 5 mm. Such sufficient force and firepower
, and the fortifications built along the mountain, Lieutenant General Clark has enough confidence to let the Chinese army and mercenaries shed all their blood here!
After conquering Hartiangis, the Chinese army did not immediately attack TiraColorada, but rested on site for two days, allowing the soldiers who had fought for several days to rest.
At the same time, the consumed combat materials were supplemented. The Japanese mercenaries also dispatched ten divisions from Acapulko to supplement the front-line troops. In addition, the new divisions were also formed in Japan so that they could timely supplement the losses on the battlefield.
On February 7, the Chinese army began to launch an attack on TiraColorada, and the forward was still Japanese mercenaries. The performance of Japanese mercenaries in the Battle of Haltiangis has been recognized by China.
At noon, the 5th Division of the Japanese mercenary arrived five kilometers away from Tira Colorada and encountered a US regiment. After a fierce battle, the US military lost its position and retreated to Tira Colorada. The Japanese mercenary
The 5th Division launched a tentative attack on Tiralolada, but was hit by the superior firepower of the US military. The bodies on the ground were lost. They had to give up the attack and retreat to a safe place.
At 3:00 p.m., the main force of the Chinese army also arrived at seven kilometers from Ritella Colorada. However, facing the strong fortifications of the US military, the Chinese army did not launch an attack immediately, but hoped to find the US military's defense line.
Weakness, take Tira Colorada at the lowest cost.
"Marson Marshal, the US military's defense line in Tiracololada is very tight. The US military's defense here is similar to the defense in Haltiangis. They use the surrounding mountains to build a solid defense line. It is on the west side.
The mountain with an altitude of 500 meters and a relative height of 200 meters is called Heights 1. In addition, on the south side of Heights 1, there is a small lake called Parrot Lake, with a water area of about 20 square kilometers.
Without equipment, it is very difficult to cross the river. To the east is a mountain with an altitude of 400 meters, which we call the No. 2 Highland. It is inevitable that it is altitude of 900 meters and a relative height of 500 meters.
We call the highland No. 3. Due to the terrain, the US military deployed heavy troops on the highland No. 1 and No. 2, and only a small number of troops were deployed on the highland No. 3. However, it should be noted that the US military is in
About hundreds of 105mm howitzers were deployed on Highland No. 3, from where we could fully cover our offensive positions.
On Heights 1 and 2, the US military also built a large number of fortifications, trenches, barbed wire mesh, tunnels and fixed firepower points to form a strict defense. It can be said that the US military's defense in Tira Colorada is a complete one.
More than five times that of Ertiangis!" General Du Qizheng introduced to the Army Minister and Army Marshal Zhao Bowen.
After listening to General Du Qizheng's introduction, Marshal Zhao Bowen couldn't help but frown. The heavy artillery group deployed by the US military around Tiela Cororada covered all the offensive routes. In addition, from the current perspective, China
If the army wants to conquer Tiracolorada, it can only attack from the north, and this will inevitably fall into the superior firepower of the US military. It can be foreseeable that once the Chinese army launches an attack, the body will definitely pounce on Tiracolorada.
The flat ground in front
"How many troops do the US military have here?" asked Marshal Zhao Bowen.
"The US military originally had only 300,000 troops here, of which 50,000 were troops withdrawn from Khaltianggis. However, yesterday, more than 100,000 troops arrived in Tiraco from Chilpansingo.
Lolada has brought the total force here to more than 400,000 people." General Du Qizheng introduced. His face was also a little unnatural. In the Battle of Haltiangis, he was the main attacker of the 2nd Army.
, In the battle of Tira Colorada, it should be his turn to the 7th Army. But the US military's defense line here is very strong. If it launches a strong attack, it will inevitably cause heavy casualties. This is not what he hopes to see
of.
"It seems that the Americans have carefully built the defense line here! If we want to conquer Tiracololada, we may have to pay a heavy price!" Marshal Zhao Bowen said.
"Marson, why don't we let the Japanese mercenaries attack? They dare not violate our orders!" General Xie Dingkun suggested.
Marshal Zhao Bowen shook his head. With the US military's defense in Tira Colorada, even if all 300,000 Japanese mercenaries died, it would probably be difficult to break through the US military's defense line.
"What should we do?" General Du Qizheng asked.
"Don't worry, although the US military's defense line is strong, it is not unbreakable. I have requested domestic support and the Air Force will come to support us. Calculate the time, the fearful airship unit should arrive in Acapulco. At that time,
The Air Force will use heavy aviation bombs to strike the US military's fortifications and destroy the US military's fortifications. In that case, it will be much easier for us to break through the US military's defense line!" said Marshal Zhao Bowen.
Since its establishment, the Chinese Air Force has not been on the battlefield for apart from participating in the war against Russia more than ten years ago. The scale of development and main weapons are strictly confidential, just like the navy's aircraft carrier fleet. The outside world has always been
I have guessed the size and weapons of the Chinese Air Force, but I have never received any exact news, even China's allies. In the European battlefield, aircraft have appeared, but they are more used for reconnaissance, special fighter jets and
The bomber has not been developed. In order to keep it confidential, the Chinese Air Force also plans to first invest in the airship force on the American battlefield, and finally see if the situation is put into the fighter jets. The air strike on Tira Colorada was the Chinese Air Force on the American battlefield.
