    "Damn it, do these Americans want to go all out? Let the 252nd Regiment go immediately to support the 5th Regiment, and the 253rd Regiment is also ready, ready to go to the front line at any time. Humph! Even if they have to go all out, I am definitely not afraid of these Americans  Dude!" said the commander of the 25th Infantry Division.

    At 9:05 a.m., the soldiers of the 252nd Regiment went to the high ground and joined the defense of Highland No. 1.  The US 61st Division attacked very fiercely, but its own casualties were also huge. Soldiers were killed or injured almost every second.  In the face of huge casualties, the US military's originally high fighting will gradually began to collapse.

    At 10 a.m., after two hours of fierce fighting, the U.S. 61st Infantry Division suffered heavy casualties and had to stop the attack and retreat to the U.S. position.

    "Hell! We were so close, so close to breaking through the Chinese defense line!" Lieutenant General George cursed when he saw the US military retreating.

    "George, calm down, the 61st Division has done its best." Lieutenant General Clark said solemnly.  In just two hours of fighting, the US 61st Division paid at least thousands of lives. Adding in the slightly injured soldiers, the entire division had suffered more than half of its casualties!

    "Clark, launch a second wave of attacks immediately. The Chinese will soon be unable to withstand it. Once we can break through the Chinese defense line and recapture Highland No. 1!" Lieutenant General George said loudly.

    "George, forget it, let's retreat! The Chinese defense is too strong. Under such circumstances, continuing to attack will only increase casualties!" Lieutenant General Clark suggested.

    "No, I can't just admit defeat. We still have hundreds of thousands of troops, and we will definitely be able to retake Highland No. 1!" Lieutenant General George said with red eyes.  He really didn't want to admit defeat. If he did, the US military would definitely find a scapegoat after paying such a heavy price. He didn't want to be that scapegoat, so he could only make a desperate move.

    "George, there are still hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops on the opposite side. Even if we recapture Highland 1, the Chinese can still capture Highland 2. Do we still have to kill tens of thousands of people to recapture Highland 2? We simply can't.  We don¡¯t have that many troops, so we can¡¯t waste our time here!¡± Lieutenant General Clark persuaded him earnestly.

    "No Clark, I'm not willing to give up like this. Let's do this. My 11th Army still has two full divisions. Your troops are responsible for the defense behind Hartianjis. I will use my troops to capture Highland No. 1.  !" Lieutenant General George said.

    Seeing that Lieutenant General George had made up his mind, Lieutenant General Clark knew that no matter how he persuaded him,

    Lieutenant General George would not change his attitude, so he had no choice but to agree to Lieutenant General George's plan.

    A few minutes later, Lieutenant General George summoned all officers above the regiment level of the 43rd and 44th Divisions of the 11th US Army at the headquarters.

    "The Chinese have occupied Highland No. 1 and have posed a great threat to us. We must recapture Highland No. 1 and drive China out of Hartianjis. Otherwise, we can only evacuate here. Your Excellency, President  We have just been commended to the entire army, and we cannot let him down! Therefore, the 43rd and 44th Divisions must recapture Highland 1 during today's attack. They are not allowed to retreat without authorization, otherwise military law will be violated!" Lieutenant General George  He said sternly.

    "It's the general!" The officers of the 43rd Division and the 44th Division all felt the murderous intent in Lieutenant General George's words.  Lieutenant General George also had great authority in the 11th Army, and the officers did not dare to object.

    At 10:30 in the morning, the 43rd Division of the 11th Army of the US Army once again launched a fierce attack on Highland No. 1.  Lieutenant General George also specifically ordered the military police to form a supervising team. If any American troops disobey orders and retreat without permission, they will deal with them.  Under the threat of the supervising team, the US military attacked Position 1 with almost all their energy.  Under the cover of their own artillery fire, they risked their lives to launch an attack on the high ground.  Even though their comrades around them continued to fall, they did not flinch.

    The fierce attack by the US military directly caused the Chinese defenders to pay heavy casualties.  As the saying goes, "killing one thousand enemies and damaging one's own eight hundred" means that while the Chinese army has caused huge casualties to the US military, it has also suffered considerable casualties of its own.  It's just that compared to the casualties of the US military, the losses of the Chinese army are smaller.  Under the attack of the US military, the Chinese army's defense on Highland 1 also became precarious.

    "Boom! Boom! Boom!" Several mortar shells fell into the trenches, tearing into pieces several Chinese soldiers who were manipulating a heavy machine gun and firing at the US military.  Taking advantage of this opportunity, several American troops broke into the trenches of the Chinese defenders.

    "Asshole! First class, follow me and drive the Americans out of the trenches!" A second lieutenant platoon leader ordered loudly, called a few soldiers and rushed towards the American soldiers who invaded the trenches.

    "Bang bang bang!" The platoon leader fired one after another with the pistol in his hand, killing several American soldiers. The remaining American soldiers were also killed by other Chinese soldiers.?At the same time, light machine guns were also set up and fired at the following US soldiers, repelling the attack of the US soldiers.  However, the entire No. 1 Highland was still in danger amidst the fierce attack by the US military.

    At this time, the generals of the Chinese Navy also discovered the anomaly of the US military.  In the past few days, although the US military's attacks were fierce, they were not at all so fearless and fearless.  The US military's attack gave people a completely crazy feeling.  The commander of the Chinese Army's 25th Division quickly reported the situation to the group army commander, Lieutenant General Xie Dingkun.  His 25th Division has already committed all three regiments to Highland 1. If the US military's attack continues to be fierce, the 25th Division will definitely not be able to hold on.

    "Mr. Zhao, what do you think? What are the Americans planning to do?" In the headquarters, after General Xie Dingkun dispatched a division of reinforcements to Highland 1, he also consulted General Zhao Bowen for his opinion.

    "It seems that the Americans have seen through our plan. They are planning to make a desperate move to recapture Highland No. 1!" General Zhao Bowen thought for a moment and then said.

    "However, we will not let their attempts succeed. No matter how much troops they invest, it is impossible to recapture Highland 1!" said General Du Qizheng, commander of the 7th Group Army.

    ¡°If their attack fails, they should recognize the reality and choose to retreat!¡± General Zhao Bowen said.

    "But, in this case, we will not be able to achieve our combat objectives!" General Xie Dingkun said eagerly.  There are still hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops in Haltiangis. If these U.S. troops escape back to Tierra Colorada, it will have a great impact on the subsequent battle.

    "We can only take one step at a time! Order the entire army to prepare for the attack. Let the Japanese mercenaries of Oshima Yoshimasa strengthen the attack on Highland No. 2. Before two o'clock this afternoon, if Highland No. 2 is to be taken  ! In addition, Highland No. 1 must be defended. The 7th Army is ready for battle. Once the U.S. military shows signs of retreat, it will immediately launch an attack on Hartianjis! We must keep the U.S. troops here as much as possible!" Zhao Bowen said  Said the general!

    "Yes, sir!" General Xie Dingkun and General Du Qizheng said quickly.

    The Chinese army quickly took action. Lieutenant General Xie Dingkun once again deployed an infantry division from the 2nd Army to reinforce No. 1 Highland, and another infantry division was used as a reserve.  The 7th Army, which had been waiting for orders since the beginning of the war, also quickly completed preparations for the attack.  After receiving the order, the Japanese mercenary commander General Oshima Yoshimasa immediately stepped up the attack on Highland 2. Originally, only one regiment was invested in each attack, but now a brigade was invested in each attack.  The Japanese mercenaries intensified their attacks, which immediately doubled the pressure on the US military guarding Position 2. The position was almost broken by Japanese mercenaries several times.

    "Boom! Boom! Boom!" On the highlands on both sides of the Haltiangis, the Chinese army and the US military started a fierce battle.  Lieutenant General George, the commander of the US military, pinned all his hopes on this wave of attacks. He deployed two complete infantry divisions from the 11th Army to attack Highland No. 1, hoping to recapture the high ground. However,  When the Chinese military determined the intentions of the US military and made new deployments, the US military's intentions had completely failed.

    The US military launched attacks on Highland No. 1 again and again, but after the Chinese army's position was replenished with sufficient troops, it was like the hard rock on the seaside. Despite the violent impact of the waves, it remained firm and motionless. On the contrary, the waves were  It was shattered into pieces in the impact.

    "Damn it, how could this happen? How could the Chinese defense be so strong?" Lieutenant General George said through gritted teeth.

    "George, give up, it's still too late for us to retreat!" Lieutenant General Clark suggested.  However, Lieutenant General George still stubbornly rejected Lieutenant General Clark's suggestion.

    At one o'clock in the afternoon, the No. 2 high ground defended by the US military was breached by Japanese mercenaries. Almost all the tens of thousands of US troops guarding the high ground were lost.

    At this moment, the Chinese artillery launched a large-scale artillery bombardment on the Haltijis. Thousands of heavy artillery launched a covering bombardment on the Haltijis. The dense artillery shells fell, covering the entire Haltijis.  Shrouded in it, houses and streets were turned into ruins during the shelling, and US military fortifications were also destroyed during the shelling.  The 23rd Army Corps of the U.S. Army stationed at Hartianjis suffered heavy losses during the shelling.

    The shelling only lasted ten minutes. After that, the 7th Army of the Chinese Army dispatched two infantry divisions and launched a fierce attack on Hartianjis.  At the same time, the 2nd Army of the Chinese Army stationed on Highland 1 and the Japanese mercenaries who had just captured Highland 2 also launched an attack, outflanking Hartianjis from both sides!
