    "The Chinese Empire is on board! Kill all these white ghosts!" A large number of Japanese mercenaries broke through the US military positions, carried rifles with bayonets, and attacked the US military, launching fierce hand-to-hand combat with the US military.

    A Japanese mercenary major officer kept swinging the samurai sword in his hand, cutting down one American soldier to the ground one after another.  The American soldiers were very impressive, but in close quarters combat with bayonets, they were no match for the Japanese mercenaries.  The Japanese's ability to fight with a bayonet is considered to be first-rate in the world.

    After the 18th Japanese mercenary division invaded the US military position, the Japanese mercenary commander General Oshima Yoshimasa once again dispatched a division into the battle.  The US military reinforcements were intercepted by the Chinese Army's artillery, and suffered heavy casualties when passing through the barrage of artillery shells.  Although nearly half of the U.S. troops successfully passed through the barrage, facing the powerful Japanese mercenaries and the Japanese mercenaries supported by reinforcements, the U.S. military simply could not withstand it.

    After an hour of fierce fighting on Highland No. 1, all the U.S. troops on the high ground were cleared. Only a handful of people successfully escaped back, and most of them died on the high ground.  Some people chose to surrender, but this group of people was not very large in total, less than a thousand people.  Of course, there were also some cruel Japanese mercenary soldiers among them, who also killed those American troops who surrendered.

    "Yoshi, the Japanese mercenary soldiers are really good. Those white ghosts are just better with their weapons. If you let them fight the mercenary soldiers like real samurai, they will definitely lose.  !" Seeing that Highland No. 1 had been occupied, Japanese mercenary commander General Oshima Yoshimasa laughed excitedly.  At the same time, he rushed to the Chinese army headquarters and reported the good news to Marshal Zhao Bowen.  Marshal Zhao Bowen is the Minister of War. Of course, he, a Japanese mercenary commander, has to work hard to curry favor with him!

    "Marshal, we have captured Highland No. 1, please give us your instructions for the next step!" Oshima Yoshimasa bent over with a flattering smile on his face.

    "Let your people guard Highland 1. Never let the Americans take Highland 1 back! Our artillery will provide you with fire support!" Marshal Zhao Bowen said.

    "Yes, Your Excellency, Marshal, I will make arrangements right away! I promise that I will hold on to Highland No. 1!" General Oshima Yoshimasa promised, patting his chest.  After receiving the instructions from Marshal Zhao Bowen, he went to carry out the instructions.

    "Marshal, should we take advantage of this opportunity to launch an attack on the other two highlands of the US military and the urban area of ????Tiela Colorada. In these days of fierce fighting, the US military has lost at least hundreds of thousands of people. Although they still have more than 300,000 people.  strength, but with extremely low morale, they simply cannot withstand our attack. General Xie Dingkun, commander of the Chinese Army's 2nd Group Army, suggested.

    After the Chinese army captured Highland No. 1, Tiela Colorada was revealed to the Chinese army. If the Chinese army is willing, it can launch an attack here immediately.  However, Highland No. 2 to the east of Tierra Colorada and Highland No. 3 to the south are still under the control of the US military. The urban area of ??Tierra Colorada is also within the fire coverage of these two highlands. If launched  If they attack, they will definitely suffer heavy losses once they are hit by firepower from the US military.

    "Marshal, we can take down all the surrounding highlands like we did in the Battle of Hartianjis, and then attack the city! In this case, the casualties we will pay will be much smaller!" Du Qizheng, Commander of the Chinese Army's 7th Group Army  the admiral said.

    ¡°The offense must be offensive.

    Now that air supremacy is back in our hands, there is no doubt that the morale of the US military has dropped and that it will defeat the US military.  It's just that I hope we can win at the minimum cost.  And, I hope to get a big win!  "Marshal Zhao Bowen said. The current situation is very unfavorable for the U.S. military. He is worried that the U.S. military will take the opportunity to retreat. After all, there are more than 300,000 U.S. troops here. If these U.S. troops are allowed to retreat to Chilpanzingo Garchi  There are still 300,000 U.S. troops in Erpanzingo. If the Chinese army wants to break through the U.S. military's defenses, it may have to pay a heavy price!

    "Marshal means to block the US military's retreat and encircle all the more than 300,000 US troops here?" General Xie Dingkun said.

    Marshal Zhao Bowen nodded, and then said: "Only in this way can we inflict heavy damage on the US military! It will be easier to attack Chilpanzingo next time!"

    "Okay, Marshal, leave it to our 2nd Army to block the US military's retreat! I promise not to let a single US military escape from our defense line!" General Xie Dingkun said.  The Second Army lost some of its troops in the previous Battle of Hartianjis, but overall it did not suffer any fundamental damage.  However, the task of blocking the US military's retreat isIt is very difficult! Not only will it be violently attacked by the surrounded American troops, but it may also be attacked by the American troops from Chilpancingo.  After all, General Pershing would not just watch as more than 300,000 US troops were surrounded and annihilated by the Chinese army. Once these US troops were surrounded and annihilated by the Chinese army, the US military's defense line in the Sierra Madre del Sur would be fundamentally shaken.  It is conceivable that when the US military troops in Tierra Colorada were surrounded, what a crazy counterattack the US military would launch!

    Marshal Zhao Bowen looked at General Xie Dingkun and saw a determined look in his eyes, so he nodded: "Okay, the task of intercepting the US military and intercepting the reinforcements in the direction of Chilpanzingo will be left to the 2nd Army  Yes, I will ask the Air Force to provide support for you!"

    "Marshal, please rest assured, the 2nd Army will definitely complete its mission!" General Xie Dingkun said firmly.

    "Very good! The 2nd Army will take action tonight. After the 2nd Army blocks the U.S. Army's retreat, we will launch a general attack on the U.S. Army. The 7th Army will be the main force. Although the Japanese mercenaries are powerful, they are ultimately equipped with  There is such a gap, we cannot completely rely on them!" Marshal Zhao Bowen said.

    "Yes, Marshal, the 7th Army is already ready for battle!" General Du Qizheng also said.

    ??In Tierra Colorada, inside the US military headquarters, Lieutenant General Clark was looking at the map with a sad face.  Highland No. 1 has been captured by the Chinese, which has left a huge hole in Tierra Colorada's defense line. The urban area of ??Tierra Colorada has also been exposed to the Chinese.  What's more serious is that after losing air supremacy, the Chinese air force can bomb Tierra Colorada unscrupulously, which will undoubtedly cause huge casualties to the US military, as well as declining morale.  Although there are still hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops in Tierra Colorada, as the war progresses, once the large number of troops lose their fighting spirit, they are just lambs to be slaughtered.  If the US military wants to regain air supremacy, it is simply impossible.  After the appearance of the Chinese Air Force's fighter jets, Lieutenant General Clark gave up any hope.  Although the United States can build more airships, it cannot come up with fighter jets that can rival those of the Chinese Air Force in a short period of time.  This will make the sky dominated by the Chinese for a long time, and it will be almost impossible for the US military to regain its disadvantage.

    "Damn it, how could the Chinese have such powerful fighter planes? They are just a decadent country! How could they develop so powerfully in less than twenty years?" Lieutenant General Clark gritted his teeth.  Cursed.  As long as he thinks of US airships being shot down by Chinese Air Force fighter jets, his heart will burn with anger!  In his impression, China is just a decadent feudal country, and the Chinese people still have pig tails behind their heads.  Although China has defeated Western powers in wars, Western countries often slander and slander China in the media, which makes China's image in the West very bad.

    "Maybe it's time to give up here and retreat to Chilpancingo. Otherwise, it will be too late!" Lieutenant General Clark said.  Ever since the Chinese army launched its efforts to seize Highland No. 1 today, he felt a deep crisis.

    After being stagnant in Tierra Colorada for half a month, the Chinese seem unwilling to continue like this.  For Lieutenant General Clark, this is an extremely dangerous signal. With the fighting will in his hands, the US military is almost broken, and there is no way it can withstand the attack of the Chinese army.

    Lieutenant General Clark organized troops to defend the urban area of ????Tiela Colorada, while holding on to the other two highlands to prevent these two highlands from being captured by the Chinese.  At the same time, a telegram was sent to General Pershing, asking General Pershing to allow him to lead his army to retreat to Chilpancingo.

    However, General Pershing did not immediately reply to Lieutenant General Clark.  In fact, General Pershing was completely stunned when he learned that all the US airship troops had been wiped out.  In the battle of Tiela Colorada, he had already understood very clearly how powerful the Chinese who had mastered air superiority were.  After the Chinese Air Force joined the battlefield, the advantage that the US military had in the Sierra Madre del Sur has been wiped out. It is no longer possible to rely on this line of defense to resist the Chinese.  However, General Pershing has not given up his efforts yet. He knows that once the defense line of the Sierra Madre del Sur is breached, the US military will have no advantage on the battlefield.  The initiative on the battlefield will also return to the hands of the Chinese army.  Therefore, he did not immediately reply to Lieutenant General Clark's telegram requesting a retreat.  And this undoubtedly became an important reason for the destruction of Clark and more than 300,000 US troops!
