The McCarran was one of the three fulcrums of the U.S. Army in the Rio Grande Line, and Pull! Mines are diverse, and it is also a key defense area for the US military. Originally, Admiral Pershing deployed a full six corps of troops in the area near McCarron, but because Laredo was tight, the squadron was about to break through Laredo, which was heavily defended by the American army. Therefore, Admiral Pershing had to draw troops from the defensive line. The six corps that had defended Macallan were reduced to four. Moreover, the defense area of these four armies is more than 100 kilometers, and the defenders of the McCarran urban area are only the 28th Army of the US Army.

When the shells of the heavy artillery unit of the ** team fell on McCarron, Major General Brown, the commander of the 28th Army of the United States, panicked, he did not expect this to be the case at all. Originally, the squadron attacked Laredo, which made him think that the squadron had taken Laredo as the direction of the main attack. Well, the defenders elsewhere can rest easy. It's not just him, many generals in the U.S. military think the same thing. But now, as if the reality was playing a joke on him, the squadron actually began to shell The Macallan. There is no doubt that the squadron will launch a river-crossing attack next.

"General, the Chinese are on the other side of the river, at least hundreds of thousands of troops have been assembled. The heavy artillery they used to fire at us was at least a thousand. Our defense line was under the heavy bombardment of the Chinese, and it was damaged by Yan zhòng! If this continues, once the Chinese attack, we will not be able to support it for long! "The chief of staff of the 28th Army reported to Major General Brown.

"Quickly organize the troops to prepare for defense, and ask for help from the surrounding troops. If we defeat them, they won't please them. Send a telegram to General Pershing telling him that we are under attack by the main forces of the Chinese, and that we need reinforcements, otherwise we will not be able to withstand the attack of the Chinese! Major General Brown said hurriedly. Now, the main thing is to block the attack of the squadron. But relying on the capabilities of the 28th Army alone, this seems somewhat impossible! Judging from the mobilization and assembly of thousands of heavy artillery pieces by the Chinese, the squadron on the opposite side has gathered at least hundreds of thousands of people!

"Yes, General!" The chief of staff of the 28th Army nodded and hurriedly went to prepare.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Dense artillery shells exploded on the positions of the American troops, and the fortifications built by the American troops were destroyed in the shelling, and some of the fire points made of reinforced concrete were able to support a little, but the fire points of those civil structures were directly blown into the sky.

The US officers and soldiers on the defensive line had already taken refuge in the anti-artillery holes, and they prayed to God that their anti-artillery holes would not be blown up. It's just that the feeling of listening to the cannonballs exploding above their heads is like a year!

After half an hour of shelling, the heavy artillery units of the Chinese army stopped shelling. The U.S. troops, who had survived this shelling, drilled out of the defensive artillery hole, and entered the trench with their weapons and prepared to deal with the squadron crossing the river. The Rio Grande is already covered with small boats with squadrons. The American soldiers began to manipulate the weapons in their hands and launched an attack on the squadrons that were crossing the river. No, a boat was wrecked, and the soldiers on it fell into the water. At the same time, under the blow of the US army's machine-gun fire, people were constantly shot and killed. And by this time, the fleet of aircraft of the Chinese Air Force had already reached the skies over the defense line.

"Da Da Da!" The fighter jets circled down, the aviation machine gun in the nose fired along the trenches of the American army, and a long line of American officers and soldiers fell in a pool of blood in the strafing.

The bomber flew at an altitude of 1,500 meters, and after the bomb magazine in the belly of the plane was opened, dozens of aerial bombs fell, blowing up the US positions into a sea of fire.

The FH5' Falcon dive bomber began to dive with its own high-pitched whistling sound, accurately dropping heavy aerial bombs mounted under the belly of the aircraft onto the U.S. military's firepower. Neither the reinforced concrete fire point nor the fire point of the civil structure could withstand aerial bombs weighing 500 kilograms. Almost every heavy aerial bomb is capable of destroying trenches tens of meters long, and the huge orange-red fireball produced after the bomb explodes, devouring the lives of the people enveloped inside.

"Air defense forces to shoot down the Chinese's plane!" Under the heavy bombardment of the Chinese Air Force, the US military suffered heavy losses, and the attack on the squadron that was crossing the river was much smaller, and the fastest boats had even docked on the north bank of the Rio Grande.

"Da Da Da! Bang bang bang! "The anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns of the American army opened fire one after another. The fighters of the Chinese Air Force passed through the fire network composed of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns of the US army, and their bodies were as light as swallows flying in a storm. In addition, these fighters sometimes launched counterattacks against US air defense positions, making the US military miserable.

In order to support the Chinese Army's 8th Army's river crossing operation, the Chinese Air Force deployed more than 200 fighters at the airfield near Reynossa. Among them, most of them are the HB' Hongyan, bomber and the FU5' Falcon, dive bomber. After all, in striking at the enemy, you have to rely on bombers. hb'Hai Dongqing, although the fighter is also capable of carrying aerial bombs, but the hit rate of the dropped bombs is too low, and there is no problem in dealing with a dense enemy, but against fixed fortifications, then there is no way!

"General, the Chinese have come ashore, and our front-line troops have suffered heavy losses under the blows of the Chinese Air Force, and they cannot withstand them!" The chief of staff of the 28th Army of the US Army reported to Major General Brown.

"What about the Navy? Don't those guys in the Navy have battleships? Quickly contact the Navy's warships and let them attack the squadron that is crossing the river! Major General Brown said hurriedly. To strengthen the defense of the Rio Grande, the US Navy was also involved, and they sent ten destroyers and two light cruisers into the Rio Grande.

However, due to the shallow water of the river, these warships could only operate in the downstream area. It just so happens that the section of the river near McLaan is the section of the river that can be navigated by the US Navy.

"Yes, General, I'll contact the Navy right away!" The chief of staff hurriedly said.

The 91st Regiment of the 9th Infantry Division of the Chinese Army reached the north bank of the Rio Grande at 9 a.m. and, with the support of the Air Force, began to attack the American defensive line. At this time, the 28th Infantry Division under the 1st Army of the US Army, which was holding the first line of defense, had already suffered heavy losses, and it was difficult for them to hold on in the face of the attack of the squadron.

At this time, the 9th Regiment of the 92nd Infantry Division of the Chinese Army also began to cross the river. A large number of small boats set off from the south bank of the Rio Grande and galloped towards the north bank of the Rio Grande. The river is two or three hundred meters wide, and it can be passed in a few minutes.

"Woo! Woo! "Suddenly, a whistle sounded, and in the downstream area, several destroyers of the US Navy appeared. These destroyers received a request for help from the 28th Army of the United States and rushed to support them. At this time, the troops crossing the river did not have much defense, let alone the destroyers of the navy.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "The destroyers of the US army began to fire at the squadron that was crossing the river, and the dense shells exploded on the surface of the river, splashing up columns of water. Although most of the guns carried by these destroyers were small-caliber rapid-fire guns. But even a small-caliber rapid-fire gun is definitely not something that a wooden boat can withstand.

"Boom!" The wooden boat was torn apart by the shelling, and all the Chinese soldiers on it fell into the water. They desperately threw away their equipment to avoid being pulled underwater. But there are still many people who have not been able to break free in time, sank to the bottom of the water, and slept here!

"Damn, order the artillery to fire on the American warships and sink them! Contact the Air Force and attack the warships of the Americans! The commander of the 8th Army, General He Bingju, ordered. If the American warships are not dealt with first, the troops crossing the river will definitely suffer heavy losses.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "The Chinese artillery group deployed on the south bank of the Rio Grande River adjusted their targets one after another and fired at the US ** ships on the river. Although, the armor-piercing performance of howitzers is very limited, these destroyers are not thickly armored battleships in the first place, and under the blow of hundreds of heavy guns hit by the Chinese army, they were difficult to resist for a while and had to start retreating.

And at this time, the fighters of the Chinese Air Force also arrived. One after another, the FH5' Falcon and dive bombers flew to the top of the US ** ship and began to dive and drop bombs. The destroyer is relatively small and difficult to hit. However, if hit, only a heavy aerial bomb would be needed to kill them.

Under the siege of more than two dozen FHB' Falcon and dive bombers, two of the several destroyers of the US Navy were sunk on the spot. Among the others, two were damaged by the Chinese Army's artillery group. At this time, the remaining US warships did not dare to continue the battle anymore and fled downstream of the river one after another. If they can pick up the bargain, these US Navy warships will definitely not let go. But now it seems that where is this to pick up cheap, it is completely fatal!

The U.S. ** ships wanted to escape, but the Chinese Air Force did not intend to let them go. FH5 in the sky

The Falcon and dive bomber groups pursued closely until all the American warships were sunk in the future, and then they returned. This also made the US Navy, although it still had two light cruisers and several destroyers of large tonnage, but it no longer dared to participate in the battle on the Macallan River for fear that it would be completely annihilated by the attack of the Chinese Air Force.

The news of the squadron's onslaught at McCarron was immediately sent to the command of the US army. After receiving the report, Lieutenant General March was shocked and immediately ran to Admiral Pershing's office!
