After the failure of the second U.S. attack on San Luis Potosí, Maj. Gen. Moon paused the attack and prepared to allow the soldiers to rest and have lunch before continuing the attack. However, with a telegram from Lieutenant General Pershing, he had to stop this suicide attack. In the telegram, Lieutenant General Pershing ordered him to halt this stupid attack, reserve his strength, and wait for the arrival of the 11th and 13th armies to flank San Luis Potosi.

After reading the telegram, Major General Moon was ashamed and angry. The commander of the 11th Army, Major General George, was victorious and was currently approaching San Luis Potosí, but he was bleeding from the head in San Luis Potosí, doesn't this mean that he is inferior to Major General George?

Enraged, Major General Moon found the commander of the 15th Army, Major General Duncan, like an enraged lion!

"It's you, it's you who told the general, isn't it?" Major General Moon roared angrily at Major General Duncan.

"General Moon, I just did what I had to do!" Major General Duncan said with a calm face!

"Good, good! You will pay for your despicable deeds today! Major General Moon dropped a harsh word and slammed the door.

Major General Duncan shook his head helplessly, he knew that Major General Moon would be avenged, and this time he was completely offended. However, there is no way for him to let his subordinates die because of Major General Moon's indiscriminate command, right? You must know that in this morning's battle, Major General Moon sent all the troops under the command of the 15th Army, and Major General Moon did not use any of his own descendants. Major General Duncan suspected that if he didn't find a way to stop Major General Moon's actions, his 15th Army would be wiped out here. Compared to Major General Moon. Major General Duncan is not a direct descendant of Lieutenant General Pershing, and it is only natural that he will not be reused. But that doesn't mean that Major General Moon will be able to suppress him wantonly!

Lieutenant General Pershing ordered Major General Moon to stop his large-scale assault on San Luis Potosí, much to the fury of Major General Moon. Although the losses in the morning were very large, he believed that the war would kill people, and what was a little loss? Although the losses of the US army are large, the losses of the Chinese are certainly not small, and the US army has sufficient strength to replenish, while the Chinese die one less and one less. Even if two American soldiers are exchanged for one Chinese, it will be the US military taking advantage. But he never expected that Lieutenant General Pershing would reprimand him for this, which made him very dissatisfied, but he also had to stop the large-scale attack on San Luis Potosí. In the middle of the afternoon offensive. Major General Moon only sent a regiment-sized force to carry out a tentative attack. And these armies did not use the troops of the 15th Army anymore, all of them were descendants of the 12th Army!

It was only after the sun set that the US attacks completely stopped. However, even so, the losses of the US military today are in the range of fifteen thousand people. And the casualties paid by the Chinese defenders. There are less than two thousand people. In comparison, this battle loss rate is already very staggering!

In the evening of the same day, in San Luis Potosí, the commander of the Sixth Army, General Gao Chang, received the battle report. His face was very strict.

"Commander, we lost less than 2,000 favorites, but the Yankees lost at least tens of thousands, which can be regarded as a big victory!" Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Yang Ming said.

"I know! But now is not the time to treat me! Eastern Front. Two more U.S. armies are advancing on San Luis Potosí, relying on the rabble of Mexican government forces. Two or three days at most, and then they will arrive in San Luis Potosí. At that time, we will be besieged by the 4 armies of the US army, and the situation will be very critical! Admiral Gao Chang said.

"Commander, if the time comes, won't we just retreat? The Seventh Army had already left Hawaii and would arrive in Mexico in about ten days. I think that if the US military wants to annihilate us in ten days, Naki is unlikely! Lieutenant General Yang Ming said with a smile, he is very optimistic, although the current situation is more dangerous, but he has always been sure that the final victory must belong to the squadron!

"That being said, if we retreat from the front line and let the U.S. army enter the heart of Mexico, I'm afraid there will be a series of chain reactions. First of all, the will of the Mexican government forces to resist will be further reduced, and even the root will not be useful in the next battle. In addition, the Madero government is also vacillating, and although we firmly believe that we will win in the end, if we lose, the Madero government will definitely waver. In addition, even after the reinforcements arrive, it may take several days to reach the front line. And during this time, there will definitely be a lot of variables! Admiral Gao Chang said with some concern!

"Commander, you mean that if the war on the front line does not go well, the Mexicans will betray us?" Lieutenant General Yang Ming's face was also stern!

"Quite possibly. Although Madero is now the president of Mexico, we control the entire power base of the government. If the Americans use this as bait, Madero is likely to betray China and throw himself into the arms of the Americans! Admiral Gao Chang said!

"Aren't they afraid that we will settle accounts with them? Once they betray the Empire, when the Empire defeats the Americans, it is obvious that it will not let them go! Lieutenant General Yang Ming said in surprise.

"Madero is a typical politician and he will definitely take risks for the sake of profit. If the Americans support him to unify Mexico again, maybe he will really fall for the Americans! Admiral Gao Chang guessed.

"But haven't Americans always supported Dias? If he supports Madero to unify Mexico, Díaz will definitely oppose it! Lieutenant General Yang Ming said.

"Chief of Staff, Dias is just a pawn in the hands of the Americans, his attitude does not matter! In the face of sufficient interests, if the Americans want to give up this chess piece, Dias has no way! Admiral Gao Chang said.

Lieutenant General Yang Ming thought for a moment, and it was indeed so.

"Commander, what can you do? I fully support you! Lieutenant General Yang Ming said.

"I want to launch a counterattack against the Americans before retreating, and the Americans will be painful. After that, we will take the initiative to retreat, and let the Mexican government army see our strength and strengthen their will to resist! Admiral Gao Chang said.

"Fight back against the Americans? It's a bit of an adventure, but if it's planned, it's not necessarily impossible! Commander, when are you going to launch a counterattack? Lieutenant General Yang Ming said. Although, the U.S. army has two armies of nearly 100,000 people, which is nearly twice the number of Chinese defenders. But if you launch a surprise attack, there is a good chance that it will succeed!

"Without further ado, it's tonight! I am ready to use the 11th Division and the Cavalry Brigade as the main force to tear apart the American defenses. And then expand the gains with four divisions of the Mexican government army! Admiral Gao Chang said.

"Mexicans? Can they? Lieutenant General Yang Ming pursed his lips disdainfully, he was very skeptical about the combat effectiveness of the Mexican government army!

"Don't worry! Although these Mexicans are a little inferior in combat, as long as we can tear through the American defenses, we can give them a great encouragement. Maybe they'll surprise us! Admiral Gao Chang said affirmatively.

"Alright, Commander, just do as you say!" Lieutenant General Yang Ming fully agreed with Admiral Gao Chang's strategy.

At the moment, the defenders of San Luis Potosí were busy. The 68th Division took over the line of defense at the front, and the 11th Division and the Cavalry Brigade were assembled. General Gao Chang told Major General Zhou Hao, commander of the 11th Division, and Brigadier General Li Mingshun, commander of the Cavalry Brigade, about the specific tactics. Both of them agreed with this plan, and assured Admiral Gao Chang that they would break through the American defense line in the event of a breakthrough. To enhance the suddenness of the raid, the time of the assault was set at 1 a.m. At the same time, the artillery brigade will also draw two battalions to provide them with fire support. At the time of the assault, the artillery brigade would provide them with twenty minutes of artillery preparation.

After nightfall, the 11th Division of the Sixth Army secretly left San Luis Potosi and hid in the mountains and forests three kilometers from the American position. And the cavalry brigade was also hiding in a valley on the other side, waiting for the order of the general attack!

Time passed slowly, and soon it was 1 o'clock in the morning. At this time, the moon had set in the west, and the faint moonlight sprinkled on the ground, although it was not very bright, but it was able to see the way clearly.

Two battalions of the artillery brigade also moved forward to a distance of only five kilometers from the American positions. The two battalions, one with 155-mm heavy howitzers and the other with 155-mm heavy cannons. The target of their artillery shelling will not be the forward positions of the US troops, but after the squadron launches a counterattack, they will shell the core area of the US military station, creating chaos for the US troops.

When the hands of the watch pointed to 1 o'clock, the 11th Division and the Cavalry Brigade of the Sixth Army attacked at the same time, and the two armies attacked from the north and south. Although the U.S. troops deployed troops on the fortifications in front, they did not expect the Chinese defenders to dare to attack.

For a moment, the U.S. military seemed a little flustered. By the time they could react, the squadron's cavalry brigade had already rushed to the front, and the thunderous sound of horses' hooves shook the earth as if it were trembling. A sabre of the snow shone white in the cold moonlight.

"Enemy attack! Get ready to fire! "Officers on the front lines of the U.S. Army, kick out soldiers who are sleeping. The sleepy-eyed American soldier has not come back to his senses at all!
