"Bang bang bang!" Several shots rang out, and two Chinese cavalrymen who were charging on their horses were hit and fell off their horses. But the cavalry behind still rushed quickly towards the American position.

"Da Da Da!" The machine guns on the American positions also began to strafe, and they were caught off guard, and several Chinese cavalrymen who rushed to the front were killed. However, behind them, more Chinese cavalry poured into the American positions like a tidal wave. This made the American soldiers who did not react in time unable to resist.

"Kill!" The Chinese cavalry burst out with an earth-shattering shout of killing, the sabers in their hands were heavily cut off, and their heads rose to the sky, and blood spurted out like a fountain.

Although the American troops resisted, their resistance was completely futile, and the Chinese cavalry broke through the American defense line and began to slash and kill those American officers and soldiers. The panicked American troops, pursued by the Chinese cavalry, were unable to organize a powerful counterattack.

When the Chinese cavalry charged, it was also discovered in the American barracks. A large number of disheveled American soldiers emerged from their tents, bewildered and at a loss.

"Whew!" At this time, a sharp whistling sound was heard in the sky. The sleepy-eyed American soldiers below suddenly woke up with a sense of excitement. "Shelling, hide!" Some U.S. military officers shouted loudly!

The American soldiers, who had come to their senses, immediately hugged their heads and ran around, looking for a place to escape the shelling. However, the camp of the American army was built on a flat land, and there was a smooth road on all sides, where is there a place to hide!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Dense shells fell, and after the explosion, there were clusters of fire. Shrapnel flew everywhere, reaping the lives of US officers and soldiers fleeing in all directions. Tents were also set on fire. There was chaos in the barracks of the US military!

"What's going on? What happened? Major General Moon, who was wearing only a pair of pants, rushed out of the tent, and what was shown in front of him was a picture of flames and American troops scattering and fleeing, which made his face very ugly!

"General, the Chinese are calling, they are firing at us fiercely! The front line of defense is also about to be broken by the Chinese! A brigadier general reported to Major General Moon.

"Damn! The Chinese are coming, you don't hurry up and organize troops to defend against the attack of the Chinese! "Major General Moon's face has changed dramatically!

"Boom!" It was at this time that a shell exploded not far from them. Major General Moon immediately lay on the ground, although he was disgraced, but fortunately he was not injured.

Whether it is a 155-mm heavy howitzer or a 155-mm heavy cannon, it is very powerful, weighing more than forty kilograms of shells. Loaded with more than ten kilograms of high explosives, one shell exploded, which was enough to form a no-man's land with a radius of more than ten meters. Under the heavy bombardment of Chinese artillery, the US army was unable to organize troops to support the front line.

The attack of the Chinese artillery did not last long, it ended after only twenty minutes. However, this has caused chaos for the US military. When they were attacked at night, many American troops panicked, the soldiers could not find the officers, and the officers could not get orders from their superiors. Inside the entire U.S. military barracks. It's chaos!

And it was at this time that the cavalry brigade of the Sixth Army of the Chinese Army had broken through the outer defense line of the American army and entered the barracks of the American army. The entire cavalry brigade, all the combat units were thrown into the attack. In total, nearly 6,000 cavalry broke into the barracks of the American army. Wantonly slash and kill those panicked American troops. Moreover, once these cavalrymen found signs of a build-up of American troops. Immediately, regardless of casualties, they launched an assault on the assembled American troops and scattered them once again.

On the other side, the attack of the 11th Division was also very smooth, and the chaotic American troops were unable to organize a strong counterattack, and they broke through the defensive line lightly. The 11th Division attacked the US camp from the other side, making the already chaotic US camp even more chaotic!

Behind the Chinese Cavalry Brigade and the Eleventh Division were four infantry divisions of the Mexican government army. Originally, these officers and soldiers of the Mexican government army were very puzzled by the Chinese order. In their opinion, this is the time to try to defend. Take the initiative to attack, isn't that going to death? Now they found out that the defense line of the American army was so fragile, and the light ones were broken through by the squadron! This immediately boosted the morale of these Mexican government officers and soldiers, and they screamed and entered the US military camp as if they had taken stimulants.

The Chinese cavalry brigade and the 11th Division combined, there were only more than 20,000 people. But four infantry divisions of the Mexican government army, a full 50,000 men. Although the combat effectiveness of the Mexican government army is low, the US army in the chaos cannot organize a strong counterattack, and at this time it is even inferior to the soldiers of the Mexican government army. In such a situation, the defeat of the US army is inevitable!

At two o'clock in the morning, the U.S. troops had lost their fighting spirit, and these U.S. soldiers fled in all directions. In the darkness of the night, they didn't know how many people were in the squadron that was attacking from nowhere. Although the casualties inflicted on the U.S. troops in this raid were actually not very large, they completely collapsed these U.S. troops.

The officers and men of the squadron and the Mexican army, taking advantage of this opportunity, launched a pursuit of the American troops, killing many American soldiers, but capturing more American soldiers.

The attack continued until dawn. The squadron and Mexican government forces that had won a big victory returned to San Luis Potosí.

After statistics, the Chinese cavalry lost less than 500 men in this battle, and the 11th Division lost less than 1,000 men. The losses of the Mexican government forces were only more than 2,000 men. But they killed countless American soldiers, and captured tens of thousands of American soldiers. This battle can be described as a great victory. Both the 12th and 15th armies of the American army were defeated, and the crisis in San Luis Potosí was temporarily lifted.

Major General Moon, commander of the 12th U.S. Army, and Major General Duncan, commander of the 15th Army, fled until the town of Hidalgo, forty kilometers away from San Luis Potosí, before stopping. After they gathered their troops, they found that there were only more than 50,000 men left in the two armies. In addition to the more than 15,000 people lost during the day yesterday, more than 35,000 people were lost in the squadron's night attack. Among them, tens of thousands of people were captured by the Chinese and Mexican coalition forces, and tens of thousands were killed in the melee, and most of the remaining people were lost in the chaos. Perhaps, after a while, they can be gathered again, but at least not for a short time.

When Lieutenant General Pershing, who was in the rear, heard of this terrible news, he was even more furious, and sent a harshly worded telegram to both Major General Moon and Major General Duncan, and ordered them to organize a defense on the spot and not to attack San Luis Potosi without authorization. At the same time, Lieutenant General Pershing also personally arrived from the rear, ready to direct the assault on San Luis Potosi.

In addition, the 11th and 13th armies of the US army, which were advancing from the east towards San Luis Potosí, also received orders, and Lieutenant General Pershing ordered them to rush to San Luis Potosí within two days to launch a siege on the Chinese defenders!

The squadron's counterattack, which was successful, also shook the entire American army. Originally, officers at all levels of the US military thought that this attack on the Chinese troops in Mexico would be very smooth, but they never expected that this would be the result. For a time, many people doubted whether the US military could really defeat China. 500,000 troops were mobilized to attack 100,000 squadrons, but it turned out to be like this. At the same time, some generals of the US Army also questioned Lieutenant General Pershing's ability, believing that Lieutenant General Pershing's qualifications were too shallow to command such a large-scale campaign, which made Lieutenant General Pershing very passive. Had it not been for the full support of the Chief of Staff, Lieutenant General Leonard Wood, he might have been replaced.

The most shocked were the officers and men of the Mexican government army, the US army gathered 500,000 troops to attack on a large scale, and many Mexican military generals thought that this time they might not be able to resist the attack of the US army. Even if Chinese reinforcements can arrive, it may not be too easy to recover the disadvantage. After all, the United States is close at hand, China can send reinforcements, and the United States can send reinforcements as well. Moreover, it is easier for U.S. reinforcements to enter Mexico, while Chinese reinforcements are sent across the entire Pacific.

However, this battle has strengthened the confidence of many Mexican military generals. This was especially true of the four infantry divisions of the Mexican government army that took part in the raid. Originally, the US military was very powerful in their eyes. But in the raid, the panicked American troops were vulnerable, which made many Mexican generals and soldiers almost unbelievable. But then, even if their confidence has increased a lot, in their eyes, the US military is no big deal, and it can also be defeated lightly!

After the successful raid, General Gao Chang, commander of the Sixth Army of the Chinese Army, spoke highly of the performance of the Mexican government army in the raid, which made the generals of the Mexican government army very satisfied. It's as if they're finally recognized! For a long time, these Mexican government generals, although they have always been trained and led by the Chinese side, have always regarded China as outsiders, and they can only be regarded as China's servant army. Therefore, when it comes to fighting, there are often reservations. Now, however, they have found that they seem to be able to realize their value in the midst of war.

In the ensuing military meeting, General Gao Chang rejected the Mexican government's strategy of pursuing the victory, and instead demanded that the Sino-Mexican coalition retreat south!
