Chapter 1159: Great Harvest
。 Chapter 1159 Great Harvest On October 29, the remaining troops of the 14th Infantry Division of the Chinese Army rushed to San Antonio and began to cooperate with the previous assault force to clear out the remnants of the American army in the city, although the troops of the 72nd Army and the 75th Army of the American Army were driven out of San Antonio and had retreated to Seguin in the northeast to wait for the opportunity, but there were still many determined American troops left in the city, they were not willing to retreat like this, but stayed in the city of San Antonio to continue to fight with the squadron, Under the cover of civilian houses, secretly launched an attack on the squadron, if these American troops were not wiped out, the squadron would completely occupy San Antonio, which would be impossible
As for the Americans living in San Antonio, they had already evacuated before the squadron arrived in San Antonio, although these Americans were clamoring to defend the United States and defend the United States in peacetime, but when the armored units of the Chinese Army reached San Antonio, these Americans ran faster than rabbits one by one, and they fled to the hinterland of the United States with their families, and at the same time, the news that the squadron was coming to San Antonio and was about to capture San Antonio spread. It further caused panic in American society
When the squadron invested a large number of troops to clear the U.S. troops who continued to resist in the city, the U.S. reinforcements were also marching to San Antonio, a total of 5 corps of reinforcements from the east and south of San Antonio to San Antonio, but as Major General Anthony guessed by the commander of the 72nd Army of the U.S. Army, the U.S. Army was very slow, and the U.S. Army had already captured San Antonio, and these reinforcements were at least seventy or eighty kilometers away from San Antonio. The team has arrived in San Antonio in a steady stream, and it is almost impossible for the U.S. military to snatch San Antonio back from the hands of the Chinese ** team
Subsequently, the follow-up divisions of the 2nd Army of the Chinese Army arrived in San Antonio one after another, which made the squadron further strengthen the defense here, and built a defensive line in the east, south and northeast of San Antonio, preparing to resist the possible attack of the US army on San Antonio In addition, engineers and some soldiers began to build a field airfield on the outskirts of San Antonio without the support of the air force, and the combat effectiveness of the squadron was greatly reduced. If field fighters can be built on the outskirts of San Antonio, so that the Air Force can deploy fighters here, then the combat power of the squadron will be on a higher level, fortunately, at this time, the planes for the airport requirements are not high, only a flat piece of land can take off and land, the 2nd Army in two days to level a piece of land, for aircraft to take off and land, and the Chinese Air Force immediately sent a brigade of F5' The Haidongqing fighter jets were stationed in this field fighter super, and they began to provide intelligence gathering support for the 2nd Army, but the deployment of F5 Haidongqing fighters alone was obviously not enough, and more aircraft superpowers were needed to deploy the 5 "Hongyan" bombers and F5 "Falcon" dive bombers to San Antonio
By the time of October 31, the main force of the 6th Army of the Chinese Army also rushed to San Antonio, after a few days of clearance, the stubborn American troops in the city have been basically wiped out, and the squadron can be regarded as completely controlling San Antonio At this time, the US army rushed to San Antonio slowly, but at this time, they had lost the best opportunity to counterattack When the main forces of the 2nd Army and the 6th Army of the Chinese Army have arrived, Even if the U.S. military forces that arrived in San Antonio had as many as 5 corps, they were definitely not the opponent of the squadron, not to mention, there were ten infantry divisions in the squadron that were rushing to San Antonio by guò highway one after another, and the strength of the squadron in San Antonio would become stronger and stronger because of this, and if the U.S. military wanted to recapture San Antonio, there was no possibility at all!
The capture of San Antonio is equivalent to inserting a knife in the back of the US army's Rio Grande River defense line, and the rear of the US army is attacked, and at the same time, the logistics supply is also cut off, and even the retreat route is cut off, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to the US army. By the time they arrived, the main force of the Chinese army had arrived in San Antonio
In addition, the remnants of the 72nd Army and the 75th Army of the US Army that retreated to Seguin were also asked to attack San Antonio, but this time neither Major General Anthony nor Major General Billy refused to carry out the orders of Admiral Pershing, although the duty of the soldiers is to obey the order, but this is obviously an order for them to die, they refused to carry out the two of them in San Antonio and the Chinese fought hard for three days, and as a result, the losses were heavy, although they also caused a lot of losses to the Chinese, but with the arrival of reinforcements from the Chinese, And their reinforcements were nowhere to be seen, and in the end they had to retreat, and the two armies now add up to just over 60,000 people, and to attack San Antonio, which is heavily defended by the Chinese, with this amount of strength is simply looking for death
In fact, when the main forces of the 2nd Army and the 6th Army of the Chinese Army arrived in San Antonio, the overall situation was basically decided! The U.S. military no longer has the ability to recapture here, and the squadron has begun to reap the fruits of this plan, and what the U.S. military should do now is probably how to thin the main force of the U.S. Army and not be wiped out by the squadron in this battle, so as to be able to continue to hold out in future wars, but, no matter what, the U.S. military has suffered a major loss of vitality in this war, which is already inevitable!
On the evening of October 31, General Xie Dingkun, commander of the 2nd Group Army of the Chinese Army, and General Gao Chang, commander of the 6th Group Army, were in the temporary headquarters of San Antonio, laughing at a list that recorded the trophies obtained by the squadron after capturing San Antonio, which was the most important material distribution center of the US Army on the Rio Grande River defense line, where most of the materials and weapons needed for the front line were stored. I didn't have time to destroy these materials, so now all these materials have fallen into the hands of the squadron!
"Haha! This time, the Yankees suffered a big loss, and actually left us so many weapons, if these weapons were sent to the Rio Grande defense line, Lao Du and Lao He would have suffered a lot! Admiral Xie Dingkun laughed
"The Americans miscalculated this time, originally we would face great difficulties in the supply of materials on a long-distance attack, but now, these difficulties have all been solved, and that old guy Pershing knows that the American fools have not had time to destroy these material warehouses, I don't know if he will be so angry that he will vomit blood!" Admiral Gao Chang is also happy, he will always remember that last year, he was driven like a rabbit by hundreds of thousands of troops under the command of General Pershing in Mexico, and the 6th Army also suffered heavy losses because of this, but now he finally has a revenge!
After the Red Light Army took San Antonio, it immediately controlled the US military material warehouses in the city in eighteen huge military material warehouses, which were full of all kinds of materials and food, bedding, clothes, medicines, etc., countless and countless, which could completely supply the consumption of the squadron in San Antonio In addition, the most stored by the US army in San Antonio was weapons, equipment and ammunition After counting, the squadron captured a total of 500,000 rifles in San Antonio. 10,000 light machine guns and 6,000 heavy machine guns, in addition to thousands of mortars and mountain artillery, 105 mm light howitzers also have 400 units, 155 mm heavy howitzers also have 120 bullets, the US military has stored here hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition, artillery shells also have millions of rounds of weapons and equipment, so many weapons and equipment are enough for the squadron to arm the three group armies, although the weapons and equipment of the US army are slightly inferior to the squadron, but the gap is not as big as the 1903 rifle equipped by the US army, In all kinds of xìng capabilities, it is no worse than the standard rifles equipped by the Chinese army
It's just a pity that the rifle used by the U.S. military is 7.62 mm, the Type 96 rifle of the squadron is 6.5 mm, and the same is true for light machine gun bullets, but heavy machine gun bullets and artillery shells can be used universally, which relieves the logistical pressure of the squadron on a certain period of time As for those weapons and equipment, the squadron is ready to send people to guard them, whether it is used to arm the mercenaries of the North Korean in the future, or to rebuild the Mexican army in the future, it can be used, also needs a large number of troops, in addition to the squadron, you also have to rely on the mercenaries of rì and North Korea, and even need to support some beautiful jiān, which can just use this batch of equipment
On November 1, the squadron, which had strong troops and had consolidated the defense of San Antonio, began to attack the US army, and the 2nd Army and the 6th Army sent powerful troops, with the cooperation of the 2nd Armored Brigade and the 6th Armored Brigade, attacking the reinforcements sent to San Antonio by the US Army, facing the steel torrent of the Chinese Army's armored forces, and at the same time the sweeping and bombing of the fighters in the sky, these US troops were simply powerless to resist, and the crisis posed by the US Army to San Antonio was collapsed at the first touch, and the crisis posed by the US Army to San Antonio was lifted!
